Chapter 17 1. Mother's Luncheon

Huaiyin is now Huaiyin County, Jiangsu Province.Han Xin, an orphan, has lived in this place for many years.My father died early, and my mother had no money to bury her after she died of illness.He wandered in the streets and alleys of Huaiyin, and he had no skills, no knowledge of farming, and no capital in business.I have to walk a thousand roads and eat hundreds of meals. Everyone has hands, why do you always hang around in the city?As the days went by, people who knew him hated him a little. The pavilion chief's house in Nanchang, Huaiyin is the place where he often goes to eat.At first, the pavilion chief's wife was polite to him, it was better to come early than coincidental, and just about to start dinner, have you eaten, let's have some together?

OK!Han Xin couldn't wait to answer. There are too many times, and the wife of the pavilion chief no longer dares to pretend to be polite.I guess I found a family member later, who was on guard at the head of the village. When I saw Han Xin coming from a distance, I yelled, "Han Xin has entered the village, hurry up and eat, eat quickly, and when that guy enters the house, we will clean up the dishes." There is no food for the pavilion chief's family.Han Xin had no choice but to change his target, where to eat and drink?He has no relatives, even if he has, I'm afraid he will be regarded as the god of plague, lest he will be avoided.

Relatives have always been jealous of others, laughing at others, not seeing each other if they are rich, and unlucky to have a happy reunion.Worse than a dog.Raise a dog, regardless of whether you are in trouble or prosperity, it will always be close to you.It can be seen that once a person has a snobbish eye, he is not as good as a pair of dog eyes that look down on others. Of course, people are different. There are all kinds of flowers, and there are close relatives who are like a family. They are so good that they marry and have a child. If you are used to seeing the fickleness of the world, you will know that a friend from the rivers and lakes is better than ten close relatives.

Han Xin was in a miserable situation. He had neither relatives to turn to nor reliable friends.There are fewer and fewer places to eat, so I had to go fishing by the river below the city and chat to satisfy my hunger. There is a group of aunts who wash silk and cotton by the river. At that time, there was a fashionable name called Piaomu.The drifting mothers also work from nine to five, wash for a day, bring their own lunch, and sit on the river bank at meal time to eat. Han Xin was very envious of Piaomu's luncheon. You eat yours, I'm not hungry, I just look.Han Xin said pitifully.

His expression made people feel sad.One of the drifting mothers was kind-hearted, and shared some meals with Han Xin.This meal lasts for many days. A man, every day at noon, goes to the river to grab an aunt's meal.What a bitter experience this is?How is this man feeling?People in later generations can speculate wildly, but no one will ever know better than Han Xin himself. The good times didn't last long, and the mother was laid off after finishing her work of washing silk cotton. On the bank of the river, the setting sun is like blood.A laid-off old female worker in the laundry industry stood opposite a hungry unemployed young man.

The old female worker said, I won't come tomorrow, you have to find a place for yourself. The unemployed youth said, thank you for your care, such kindness will be repaid in the future. The old female worker said with a half-smile, the little ruffian said big things, you can't even support yourself, how can you repay it? The unemployed youth was at a loss for words. The old female worker said again, I just sympathize with you. As night fell, the rough and thick silhouettes of houses on the other side of the river became increasingly dim.The unemployed young man sat on the shore, took out a flute that he carried with him, and played it leisurely.

Xiao's voice is long and mournful, desolate and tactful. Those who are not worried can let it draw out their thoughts, and those who are full of worries, let it be teased, and they can't hold on to themselves. Blowjob is Han Xin's only entertainment.In addition, he also made a sword.He also doesn't know how to wield a sword, and only hangs it on his waist as an accessory. A guy who can't eat, still walks on the street with a sword hanging on his waist.Beggars are not like beggars, warriors are not like warriors, knights are not like knights, no matter how you look at them, they are not pleasing to the eye.

The Chinese are the most disliked of the same kind who are unconventional in appearance. Once they see each other, they will point at them at least, and humiliate them with words at worst. One day, Han Xin met a man named Cai Xing.This person thinks that Han Xin walking with his sword hanging is a show of coolness.In fact, the key is not to act cool, but to act cool when you are poor, which is a bit unreasonable. So, Cai Xing stopped Han Xin, saying that you hang a sword to show off, you look like a warrior, but you are as timid as a mouse. It is an excellent tradition of the Chinese people to like to watch the excitement.Cai Xing's roar attracted people from the market to watch.

Han Xin remained silent, looking sideways at Cai Xing. Do you still dare to glance at me from the sidelines?Cai Xing got more and more energetic, pulled open the front of his clothes, exposed his chest, gestured and said, if you are brave, stab me with your sword, stab me here, right here, come here. Han Xin remained motionless. Cai Xing went on to say, if you are afraid, crawl under my crotch. The pupils of the onlookers dilated, anticipating the outcome of this suspenseful farce. If it was replaced by the hot-blooded reckless man in "Water Margin", he would have stabbed him with a single sword.When it's time to do it, do it.Many people, once they are provoked, their brains will heat up.I bet you, do you dare to jump off the building?He really jumped.This is not called having personality, it is called lack of strings in the brain.

Han Xin didn't show his bravery, he bent down and crawled under Cai Xing's crotch. The onlookers ridiculed, ridiculed, and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite enthusiastic.In their view, Han Xin's actions were both funny and cowardly.Is this still a man? He is not as courageous as a needle nose. The frog in the well has such a wide horizon.Ordinary people, small people in the market, the first reaction after being humiliated is to immediately fight back with their lives.This is by no means great wisdom and courage.Don't think that bending down is cowardly, or it may be picking up bricks, and then suddenly stand up and slap your opponent with all your strength, surprising the crowd.It's just that it took Han Xin a longer time to pick up bricks, and a longer time to accumulate strength.

Bow your head, not to admit defeat, but to see clearly the way you want to go. Think about it carefully, compared with the punishment of cutting off the genitals and cutting off the feet, what is the humiliation under the crotch?Even though he suffered huge humiliation and painful punishment, Sima Qian still wrote "Historical Records", and Sun Bin still created "Sun Bin's Art of War". Tolerate a knife on the head, bear the past is a hero.Nowadays, the word "low-key" is popular on the lips, but Ren is so low-key that it is out of tune. A person who is too low-key often bends down, so that you can't see his ambitions at all.He bows to you because you are in power.Try it after you leave your job and see who still treats you as a joke. There is no doubt that most people who are willing to be humiliated, except those who are naturally cowardly, have hidden great ambitions and potential.This is true of Han Xin, and so is Liu Bang. He was dispatched to remote Hanzhong by Xiang Yu, which is not fundamentally different from the humiliation Han Xin suffered.It's just that Liu Bang thought about how to return to Guanzhong and plot the world.As for Han Xin right now, he doesn't even dare to think about making meritorious deeds. The first thing he has to solve is the problem of food. At that time, the world was in chaos.Han Xin had figured out that there were two ways to fill his stomach and live in peace.He can't play with words and ink, the only way left is to join the army. So, who do you rely on?This is the first major choice in Han Xin's life.He is both intelligent and very realistic.He analyzed the chaotic situation in the world and decided that the Qin Dynasty must be defeated, so he decided to join the rebel army. Immediately afterwards, the second multiple-choice question popped up. There are so many rebel armies in the world, which one should we rely on?He needed a lot of information to analyze and judge, but there was no Internet at that time.He hung up his broken sword, left his hometown, and went to the wonderful and helpless world outside.
