Chapter 59 One teacher

Chapanyan has a sister-in-law Xue'e who believes in Christianity.She has lost one eye, but she can do everything from plowing fields to harvesting crops. She has paid the most taxes and fees over the years, completed the apportionment work the first time, and adopted a disabled boy. She is more diligent than men and more righteous than cadres. The first time she saw me, she angrily criticized mercenary.She said that there was a wealthy family in the village who cared about everything they did. They gave up a few cents of the mountain to build roads in the village, and they were ruthless when it came to money.He didn't want to think about how his litter of six or seven cubs grew up? ——Sister-in-law Xue'e refers to the time when there was a large group.Didn't it depend on the big group at that time, didn't it depend on seeing people have a meal at that time, and he could still bring up a large litter of cubs?Now it's a good thing, he's grown up and has a lot of money, so he wants an equal exchange for everything, so he spits into the group's bowl!

Mrs. Xue'e's defense of the collective reminded me of my trip to Northern Europe.Looking back at that time, the national flags of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Iceland and other countries were all cross flags, which shows that Christianity is the foundation of their countries.It is precisely in that atmosphere of churches that the country pursues a high social welfare policy and manages all citizens from the cradle to the grave, which is quite a style of equality within the church.I have been secretly guessing that the national policy there is actually the extension and amplification of religion*.

Don't talk about Northern Europe, let's go back and talk about Xue'e.At first I thought she was some kind of cadre, but in fact she had never even been a team leader, she just wanted to say something, she was a straight-mouthed asshole (Xue'e language).Her highest honor was to be a model worker once, but when she heard that she was going to a meeting in the city, she was so frightened that she hid in Chaishan for two days, so that the cadres could not find her.Later, I had to go, but I often sweated from nervousness, with one eye sideways, and one mouth pouted, looking very unhappy.

After she came back, she quietly told me that when she went to the city to speak on stage, she didn't know what to say, so she could only recite the script written by the cadres, but what she said and what she thought were completely different things.While she was talking about relying on the care of governments at all levels, she was thinking about relying on the care of the benevolent Lord; while talking about the need to study the laws and policies of the country in the future, she said in her heart that she must study the "Bible" in the future..." The Lord can hear what I want to say in my heart, right? The Lord won’t blame me for speaking nonsense, right?” she said.

That's when I found out she was a Christian. "Have you ever read the Bible?" "Only a little bit." "Can you sing hymns?" She covered her mouth and smiled, "I can't sing with a straight throat, it sounds like a duck quacking!" "How did you come up with the idea of ​​becoming a teacher?" "Christianity is good. Christ is a fair scale. What is right is right, and what is wrong is wrong. There are ten points in truth, so you can't just say nine and a half points." This explanation is simple and classic. "Let me tell you, I haven't eaten a pill in eight years, and my husband hasn't eaten a pill in eight years." She refers to her family's health without taking medicine. The "witness" of such a "miracle" is really worthy of her complacency .

It was only then that I realized that since the introduction of foreign religions here, their nature has changed a bit, with soil from the foreign lands, and it looks like the old but is actually new.One of the reformed religious rules is that believers do not seek medical treatment.This is very appetizing to the people in the mountains - they are deeply worried about the soaring medical expenses.The second improvement of religious rules is that believers do not eat food from other people's homes.This is also very appetizing to the mountain people - they have long been overwhelmed by the increasingly heavy human etiquette, and when they receive an invitation, it is like receiving a ticket, with a polite face full of anxiety.The spread of Christianity is probably largely based on this kind of tricks that help people save money.

Christianity is also called "Jesus Teaching" here. Due to the mispronunciation, there are also different names such as "Jesus Teaching" or "Yi Teacher Teaching".Believers also have common names such as "Christian monk/nun" or "Jesus monk/nun" or even "first division monk/nun".It is hard to say how much people reacted to the emergence of foreign religions.Seeing believers secretly visiting gatherings, everyone felt that it was like party members studying politics and living an organized life.It is not impossible for some people to calm down after joining the teaching, and to be less restless and restless, and to benefit their bodies.

The believers only attracted criticism on certain details.For example, a Christian monk can eat meat, but not blood.Is this a good food?It is too comfortable and cheap to be a monk without abstinence from meat, right?For another example, a believer broke the straw rope while carrying a pig. Instead of looking for another straw rope, he knelt down to the side of the road and prayed to God.Another believer couldn't start the tractor with his hands. Instead of checking the oil circuit and valve, he knelt down to the side of the road and prayed to God.Everyone finds it ridiculous: Christ Bodhisattva may not be so powerful, but he can also connect broken grass ropes or start dead machines?

What Xian father dislikes the most is that Ye Shijiao actually preached that "everything in the world is brothers and sisters": "Hey, the master is the master, and the cub is the cub! Don't want to change in a thousand years! You can't change in ten thousand years! How can you become brothers? What? Bao Yazi dared not to go up or down, but I slapped him and brushed him against the wall!" Bao Yazi is his son, and he has been a teacher or a master not long ago.Hearing Lao Tzu's scolding, he was so frightened that he hid outside for two days and dared not go home.

One day, Bao Yazi came to my house with three strangers, all in suits and leather shoes, on a motorcycle.The stranger claimed to be a middle school teacher in a neighboring county and came to visit me specially.They sat down in front of the steps, crossed their legs, took the tea, took the fan, and didn't even look at the housewife who brought the tea, let alone say a word of thanks, and talked about the three heavens and the nine earths in this world. ;Talk about the earth being bigger or smaller, it can only be this big; talk about the speed of light, it can’t be slower, it can’t be faster, it can only be this fast... It makes me confused.

In fact, they are not academicians of the Academy of Sciences, but Christians. The opening remarks just now were just praising the wonder of God's creation of the world, and the purpose was to persuade me to become a Christian.They then enumerated the benefits of joining the religion, including cancer patients who are cured without treatment, dumb people who can talk, and cripples who can run, and even doing business can make a lot of money.In my opinion, this is a bit like promoting slimming tea and aphrodisiac, and a bit like illegal fundraising. I said that religions do have the effect of meditation and self-cultivation, such as Chinese Buddhism and Taoism... I didn't expect that I would annoy visitors when I mentioned Buddhism.The tallest one interrupted me with a sneer: "You are still Marxism, it's too outdated! It's ridiculous! Let me ask you, how many fathers does a person have? Can a person have two fathers? Three fathers? Four Father?...Don't even think about it, are you the offspring of several fathers?" This is a very eloquent metaphor. It is very clear what it means to exterminate all other false fathers. "Paul also said not long ago that we should respect Islam and Hinduism..." The other party obviously didn't know who Paul II was (of course he didn't know Luther, Calvin, J. Ratzinger, etc.): "Do you believe those bullshit? The poison is too deep, they will only corrupt the law, bring disaster to the country and the people, they will not do anything, and they will all go to hell in the future!" "Then you know about Bush, right? President Bush also goes to the mosque..." "That's a diplomatic strategy, do you understand? Just like fighting on the battlefield, sometimes you need to charge, sometimes you need to disguise, and you need to ambush. This is the most basic common sense!" I couldn't talk to them, or even go any further.Every time I just said a sentence, I was interrupted by them, and they blocked me back in a hurry.In front of these brats, I can only listen carefully, and I can only accept great criticism-fortunately, they have no right to use force, otherwise they will definitely treat me as a "jihad" target and let me die without a place to die. I suddenly felt stupid, and I couldn't get angry. I shoo them away. "Get out! Go!" My wife didn't know why I was so rude today, she held a pot of freshly fried plantain, looked at me, then at them.Those few people couldn't hold back their faces, and their expressions immediately softened: "Mr. Han, let's talk again?" "You don't know us well, let us explain." "For God's sake, let's make friends .We still have a lot of questions to ask..." I still walk away. I saw later that they did not leave after they left the courtyard, but whispered to each other at the gate.One of them pissed on the base of the wall, and the other played on the phone for a while.After finally agreeing on a new goal, they got on their motorcycles and headed towards the road. —————————————— ﹡German scholar Weber once believed that Protestant ethics was the driving force of capitalism, as evidenced by the modern history of Western Europe.But Northern Europe also constitutes a counter-evidence: Protestant ethics can also breed socialism or semi-socialism.
