Chapter 3 Chapter Two Concerning Mr. John Nuoxi

Some of what was said about Mr. John Nosh's character in Miss Alice's last Wonderland Odyssey had been mistaken, or simply neglected, by the narrator of the trip.It is really necessary to mention it here. Mr. Nuoxi is an upright rabbit, possessing all the virtues of a country gentleman, but lacking the natural stinginess of that country gentleman, which should be known.This kind of rabbit personality has recently become rare among all gentlemen, and it has also gradually become a "personality" that is often laughed at by new-style gentlemen. He was forty-five years old, but he had some worldly knowledge but less than half his age.Love cleanliness is the habit of a lone rabbit gentleman, but this he loves the decency of behavior besides physical decency, which is worthy of criticism from those mean gentlemen.Mr. Nuoxi loves to be respectable when things happen, and spends all his annual income, 1,200 pounds in gold, on a kind of unclear consumption.

Just a lonely old man who didn't want a wife, and didn't associate with some rich widows (an obstinacy that other gentlemen disapproved of Mr. John Noush).Spending money as you get it seems inevitable that it deserves a bad name under a social critique.Mr. John Nosh, however, was not concerned with these matters.What pleases me, I still do it.Drink a glass of wine, chat with old friends, and watch a play when you are in the mood, whether it is a classical Greek tragedy or the most modern comedy.Thinking of going elsewhere in the city, I took my wallet and walked alone. The motive of love of beauty and decency is love of beauty alone, unlike other gentlemen who dress up in order to go to the tenant's house and have fun with the tenant's daughter.Whenever a poor person asks him to help, he always agrees, sees what the person needs, and tries his best to help.I like to read some novels when I am bored, no matter whether the novels are from the 14th century or the 19th century, no matter which novels are famous, they can win this kind-hearted rabbit a little tear under an unexpected situation, (he has nothing to do. Put that peaceful and upright heart on a book, and let some touching plots and moving words of this book shake and beat, so he will cry and laugh.) He does not smoke, alcohol is just said , Drink only a little bit, in fact, this little bit can make this rabbit even more lovely.

We know that any gentleman of this type, under the same situation, is not only often privately discussed as "good" or "bad", but also some people suspect that there is something wrong with his mind.Mr. John Nuoxi is also unavoidable from this kind of social criticism.However, under these three criticisms, everyone is very willing to have a deeper relationship with this gentleman, because as long as they have sex with him, they can always gain some advantage and everyone understands it.So we can also say that those who speak badly of Mr. John Nuoxi behind his back are just a kind of blame for trying to talk about him not enough, or not enough.

The place where he lives can neither be said to be the city nor the countryside, it is somewhere in between.I chose to live in this place that day, probably because it is convenient to go to the city and easy to go to the countryside.What he relied on for his living expenses was not the land, nor the real estate, nor the foreign fortune from digging cellars. This money was only given to him by a lonely and eccentric squire he didn't know.The stranger had died long ago when he was given the annuity, and the lawyer he entrusted with him later visited him slowly.After the visit, I asked his name and details, and many local people proved that this was Mr. John Nuoxi, who the unknown deceased wanted to give as an inheritance, so he used the money year after year. now.He has never shown any special pride to others for this, and even when he thinks about it in his heart, he always thinks it is a very common thing.It is also reasonable to give some inexhaustible money to a stranger who is honest but honest.Speaking of the source of this strange annuity, it seems necessary to briefly describe the rabbit's previous life experience.

First of all, it is poor, so poor that I am also inexplicable.I am a naked body, just like other naked men.There are no parents, and I can't find one like distant uncles and uncles.No one can explain why he came to that town, and of course I don't understand it. He was only five or six years old when he realized for the first time that his body was not owned by heaven, nor by his parents, but by himself—to say that it was his own, that he knew that he should find something to eat when he was hungry.Why do you know that you are five or six years old?That's another inexplicable thing.When he felt that he was looking for something to eat for the first time, he went to a restaurant in the town and saw two dogs fighting for a piece of bread. It was agreed that whoever won the fight would eat, and the bread would be placed in front of him. He testified.

The two dogs really started fighting. He watched the pair of dogs fight hard, and obviously saw that the other one couldn't get up, but who knew it would never be resolved.He thought, as long as no one is defeated, he can give the bread to the victorious dog, and return to the victorious dog to share a piece to satisfy his hunger.It's been a long day, but it still can't be resolved.He couldn't help being a little flustered, the dogs that were biting each other naturally couldn't care about this. "Hey, if you want to fight, finish it soon, friend, won't you pull him down if you bite his foot?"

Seeing that this method has been noticed by the other dog, he proposes to both dogs the many open opportunities he has seen by other sidelines.But as soon as the words are uttered by him, this method becomes obsolete and useless.He cried out again for a very good way of helping a dog catch another dog, but in doing so he also gave strength to the other dog.He thought he was doing his best to help the dog who had the upper hand, but he didn't expect that the weak dog would rise up when he shouted, thinking it was a kind of friendship encouragement.If he hadn't been present at this place, it might have been settled long ago. With him, the two dogs were driven by a kind of heroic vanity, and they refused to budge even a little bit.

"Two friends, please listen to what I say before calling." When it was admitted, the two dogs stood there bleeding from the corner of their mouths, waiting for Mr. John Nuoxi to speak.He first introduced his name to these two heroes.Then he said: "I seem to be a little hungry. Could you please settle it earlier for my sake?" "I'm sorry," said the white dog, "but we didn't know that our friend was empty." The flower dog suggested that Mr. John Nosh could eat this bread alone; but it would be an honor to let him eat while they fought, and see who came out victorious in the end.Because at that time, there was the saying "victory is justice".

"Excellent." The white dog agreed, not allowing the flower dog to stand firm, and rushed over to bite. They fought again.Mr. John Nuoxi no longer has to worry about his stomach because he ate the bread, so he watched them fight fiercely for this honor under a very beautiful moonlight. How he earned his first day's food is already a page and a half of mythical history.However, this situation still often occurs later, but it is not Mr. John Nuoxi who can get bread for this. The next day he remembered the way he got his food the day before, and thinking that perhaps forever he would be able to eat the bread left by those two dogs fighting for glory like this, he went around blundering about.Even if I don't meet these two friends, I can be a witness there for a while if there are other dogs to fight.He also concluded that this is something that happens all the time on this earth, and you can talk about it as long as you encounter it.A person's career is selected through such attempts, and he will often affirm his own direction for the first luck. If this direction is not very hopeless, he can still go on.But our good Mr. John Nuoxi walked all day, though with a kind of faith he managed to resist the desire to put something in his belly, from morning to afternoon, seeing another little rabbit and not wanting to witness You can also eat bread.He saw the other little rabbit chewing the whole big shuttle-shaped bread against the gate, and he suspected that it was the two dogs beating him in his house, so the boy ate the bread.He wanted to ask if the battle would end, so he walked up to a little rabbit who was holding a piece of bread and gnawing his head down: "Sir, I want to know which of the two dogs will win the fight?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." He thought that what he said was too vague, so he said it in detail, and gave a general account of what happened last night. "IDK." It was obvious that this kid was eating the same bread as he ate yesterday.He didn't believe that there were two ways to the same bread.Hearing that he didn't know, he thought that he knew and didn't want to sue.He was not angry, however. He said softly again, "Friend, it doesn't matter if you sue me, Hengshun you already have bread at this time of year." "You rascal, who is your friend? I am the son of a councilor, and my father gave me my bread. If you know that it is good to respect people, you should show me all your humility." yes."

"The benefit that the two dogs gave me yesterday is not that I should be humble." "That's because he's a dog, but I'm the son of a councilor." He thought to himself: Since it should be different, and it’s getting dark at this time of year, I don’t know where the pair of dogs are, and even if they are found, maybe they already have witnesses, so it’s okay to say that this side is humble now. To get benefits, just be humble. He then asked what humility is the way.The Senator's son asked Mr. John Nosh to call him Master, which he did.He asked him to bow to him again, and he did so.If he were asked to say four more words in praise of the noble representative's ability and divine blessing, he would not be able to.Because this rabbit, who has only one day's experience in eating, has not yet had the opportunity to learn flattery."Then I won't," he said. "I can sue you. You bachelors should learn these words well. The better you speak, the better you will eat." "If there is something good to eat, I would like your young master to sue me for this." This young master first corrected the word "advise" into "teach" in Mr. John Nuoxi's sentence, and then began to teach this bachelor a set of food knowledge.The eulogy spoken was a kind of rhyme, four words a sentence, the young master learned it while listening to other people speaking in front of the councilors by his father's side.Mr. John Nuoxi naturally said what he had taught him.So they both ate the bread.Mr. John Nuoxi's food the next day was in exchange for a kind of flattery, so he knew that flattering others could also get something to eat. On the third day he was hungry all day.He went everywhere to look for the first luck, but he didn't see it.He also practiced the skills he learned from the young master yesterday, unfortunately what he saw was not the young master, even if he complimented him, he would not get any benefit.Look at the night.Still can't.But he wondered how "today" is different from "yesterday" and "the day before yesterday", and he began to understand what is going on in this world.Rice is the same meal, but there are many ways to eat it.To live in this world, one must learn many methods.Today, if this doesn’t work, I’ll switch to another one, so I won’t starve.However, what he thought of was that there were at most five ways to get the chance to eat every day, so he endured a day of hunger and went around to inquire about these other three new ways, because he thought that the five ways had already got two. kind. In the days to come, every day he was made to know one more thing, and then he realized that there are still more than fifty ways to eat.But Mr. John Nuoxi found a job before he knew this, and he was already spending his new days with this job. First, he went to various places to ask people how to survive. Some people told him to live like this, and some told him that it was right to live like that. Everyone seemed to have a different way of being a human being.But when he used this method to ask the person to beg for something to eat, he was not as generous as the young congressman he met before. He said, "Then I humbly call you master and master, and read that wonderful eulogy for you, just give me a piece of bread." But the man said, "If it pleases you to be so generous, I should be glad to give you a flattery in the way you say." That's why he knew that there is a kind of people who can exchange a little compliment from others because they have too much bread at home.Compliments are something you can get everywhere, and only those who have a lot of bread in their families are willing to ask for it. Mr. John Nuoxi mentioned here obviously had to starve to death.However, before dying of starvation, anything a starving person can do without learning is stealing and robbing! Most of the first human beings to starve only know how to rob, not steal. Stealing is probably after the human sense of shame has increased, and at the same time, they feel how to do things that are more stable and intellectually developed.As for the method taken by Mr. John Nuoxi, it is of course a very straightforward method-he robs. It's the fourth day.He walked on the road and saw many little rabbits eating a big shuttle-shaped piece of browned bread. Some of them even held the beef in one hand and the bread in the other.He envied that these people could go to places that were beneficial, but he didn't understand that they were taken from home. "Family", he didn't believe that.If the other boy told him that everyone should have a family, and that there should be a father, a mother, an aunt, two older sisters, a younger sister, and an older brother of a divinity student, then why would he have a family? Do not have?If it is said that there is a lot of bread in the kitchen of every family, and there are other cupboards full of butter, milk, ham, smoked chicken, and bitter brandy, why do others Give the other child to eat but it's not your turn?In short, although many children said so, he never believed it.He walked to the back door of a large house and saw a little girl eating on a lawn stool. He walked up to the girl who was slightly younger than him, and asked the girl where she got the sausage. "It's from the kitchen at home." "too much?" "There's a lot, and there's turkey." "Is the turkey good?" "That tastes better than this." He heard that it tasted good, causing the gluttons in his stomach to scurry back and forth.Rubbing his dirty hands together, he said, "You young master, can you fetch some turkey for me from your kitchen?" "Then you'd like some turkey—my name's Mary Bottle, not Master—would you like?" "Yes, of course I want something delicious. If it's really not possible, a turkey foot is fine." "I don't like turkey feet. I've had them." The girl naively discussed all the flavors with the rabbit, while chewing carefully on that piece of smoked red sausage. Mr. John Nuoxi saw others eating slowly. While imagining a smoked red turkey, he came to his side with a groaning sound, and he spread his feet like a boxer's stand. When trying to catch the turkey, quickly unscrew a leg or wing or something. "You stand in a very special way. Look, I can do it too." So Mary Bottle also learned the way of Mr. John Nosh, and stood within five feet of him.The smell of the sausage wafted unceremoniously to Mr. John Nuoxi's nose.When the girl asked him to see this way of standing, he just rolled out of the smell of sausage. He laughed at the girl who stood up very well, and the girl said that he stood up like that, as if he was fighting someone.The two of them just laughed at the odd way the station worked. After the girl had eaten a morsel of the sausage, another thought occurred to her, and she handed the sausage to John Nuoshidai, as if to imitate it. "This is what our nanny likes to do when she pretends to be a cat to scare us." In order to imitate this ridiculous look, the girl put her hands to her cheeks, clasped her little fingers with her mouth wide open, and her eyelids closed The thumb is pressed and divided to the two sides, forming a kind of cat face, and growling to bite people. Our poorly hungry friend could not resist the lure of having something soft in his hands, and he wanted to try it.He held it up to his nose to smell the pleasant smell, he couldn't help it, and was about to bite, when he heard "Bite you!" It seemed that the girl wanted to warn him about the sausage, but in fact the girl made it herself If the cat is proud of it.Seeing that the girl had seen his actions, John Nuoxi felt a kind of shyness in his heart, so he opened his mouth wide on purpose, as if to scare the sausage, and said "Bite!" Needless to say, he didn't bite it down. . The girl paid no attention to these things.She saw John Nosh scaring the sausage there, and when she had finished, she asked John Nouch if he would take a bite of the sausage she had eaten. "Can you try it?" So under this kind of persuasion, he took a sip.He chews slowly.It's an indescribably good taste of sweet and salty.When this thing is eaten into the mouth, it is like some small insects, each with a whole body of aroma, filling the mouth.He swallowed slowly, and after swallowing, he greedily looked at the thing he was still holding in his hand. "OK?" "Excellent. I've never had this." "Are you not allowed to eat this in your family?" "No." "Then what do you eat at home today? If you don't tell me, I can guess that it must be ham and bread. I have smelled my brother. He came back from a banquet elsewhere. I can smell it from his mouth after eating this." out." "..." The rabbit didn't know what to say. "Do you like creamy asparagus? I don't." "Yeah, neither do I." "Does Huanxi use a little pepper in your noodle soup? If you use too much, it will make people sneeze." Let's talk it out for him, to be honest, it doesn't matter what John Nuoxi is at this time, he wants something tough to bite on.He has never even heard of the names of many dishes, let alone whether he likes them or not! The girl didn't understand at all that the boy standing opposite was a person who had been hungry all day and morning.She also drew a lot of criticism with John Nuoxi about vegetables, saying which ones she liked first, which ones were second, and which ones she decided not to eat.I really can't see that she is a little girl who is very knowledgeable about eating at such a young age. At last she asked John Nosh to try another mouthful, reluctantly.Of course he did. He saw people chatting with him in a volume, and they elicited the names of many expensive dishes. He even wanted to find a chance to say that he was hungry, but he couldn't find it. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a piano playing in that room.Soon, I heard a very soft female voice shouting "Mary, Mary" in the corridor, and on the other side was a sharp "Ai" answer.She took the piece of sausage from her hand, and smiled at John Nuoxi again, and said, "Look, my mother wants me to practice "Moon Song" again, and I'm afraid--do you want this? I think I'll lose it. " John Nuoxi didn't answer anymore, but snatched the sausage over.The sausage was settled, but Miss Mary nodded to the boy with a smile, and disappeared into the corridor with the small body in white clothes. That's how he snatched a piece of sausage. How Mr. John Nuoxi got a regular life is many days after this sausage-robbing story.He goes to a town all day long to try out all kinds of opportunities to get food, and it doesn't matter if he gets hungry again if he doesn't get it.He was born with a very strong body, and it was a hot day, so he could sleep anywhere, and his stomach was so small that even when he was extremely hungry, two shuttle-shaped breads would swell his stomach and make him fat. Many starving children survived.Once, this was the last time he would starve, he was so hungry that he didn't know what to do.He kindly asked other people for some food, but they chased him away.He went to the door of the delicatessen shop, and saw the whole roast chicken, the whole pigeon, and the smaller whole sparrow in the glass window, all of which seemed delicious. He stepped forward and said, "If you don't want to eat this, eat me." "Go away, you little bachelor!" He was also afraid that others would blame him for not being humble, so he changed his tone and went softly to ask for it.In the end, he was still driven away by the method of calling the dog out. He had no choice but to rob him if he really wanted to. He could only cry on the haystack in an empty garden.Unexpectedly, this crying brought a life-saver to the scene.The man was a small landlord, who came home from here and turned around. He heard a child crying on the haystack and came to see it.The first thing I saw was the big ears of the rabbit.According to the photo book, big ears are a lucky picture, and the rabbit made the person happy at the first sight. He asked how he got here and said he didn't know.He asked him about his past, and he didn't know.Apart from telling the man his name in a dignified voice, John Nuoxi only remembered a few things about his begging.The man saw that he was pitiful, and suspected from his big ears that he was a wandering nobleman, so he told him that if he was willing to follow him to his house, he could find some work. "I'm hungry!" The man told him that every day when he did the same little things and still had good beef and bread, John Nuoxi would obediently follow this man to this man's house like a lamb. The things we do every day are very ordinary things, and it is enough to wipe the windows.If the weather is fine, let the two goats go to the field to have fun for a while.Every Sunday, I changed into freshly laundered clothes and followed my master to the small chapel in the town to listen to lectures.Fate so arranged, and in a beef-and-bread environment, John Nuoxi got his learning too.The master was alone, and the habit of cleanliness, alone, passed down to Mr. John Nuoxi, like a little inheritance left. The master died when John Noshey was twenty-six, and by the time John Noshey was twenty-nine, he had received an unspecified annuity of twelve hundred pounds, and had become a gentleman in the town. .The only difference between this gentleman when he accompanied Miss Alice on his journey was the length and color of his chin beard.
