Chapter 123 Section 4 Family Memories

Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, but be afraid of thieves thinking about it.Since he is the king who rules Qin, he should have been psychologically prepared to welcome rebellion at any time.However, in the face of the clan's betrayal, Ying Zheng couldn't be normal, and he was twice as angry.That is, as the anger of King Qin, and as the anger of Ying Zheng.It is not difficult to imagine the anger of the former, but the anger of the latter lies in the fact that he was abandoned by the entire Ying family, and he became an exiled outsider. Today, more than two thousand years later, the cohesion of the family has disintegrated, and the concept of the family is gradually disappearing (please pay attention to the difference between the family and the family).As a modern person, he has been liberated from the family, got rid of the pressure and shackles of the family, but also gave up the warmth and glory of the family.The towering tree must have its roots; the water in Huaishan must have its source.And when this root is left behind, people start to wander, wandering in the land where their ancestors cultivated and lived, but they can no longer find their hometown.

The ancients said: If a person is poor, he will return to his roots, and if he is poor, he will sue his relatives.Perhaps, Chinese people do not believe in any religion at all, but only worship their ancestors.Confucianism, which has the greatest and deepest influence on China, cannot be regarded as a religion. The theory of emphasizing the past and depreciating the present, and chasing the future with caution is a kind of spiritual atavism.Praying to heaven and earth, and praying to gods and immortals are necessary homework, but gods and gods in heaven and earth are owned by everyone and will not bless only one person, so it is better to ask for the blessing of ancestors.

Anyone who has been to some relatively well-preserved ancient villages will always find that the ancestral hall must be the tallest and most magnificent building in the village.This is like in a town where Christians and even Muslims gather, the most splendid and beautiful buildings must be churches.Not for anything else, because both the ancestral hall and the church are places where beliefs are stored.In contrast to today's cities, the most luxurious places are usually banks.Of course, for many people, what is deposited in the bank is also their beliefs. We often see this kind of scene in old movies: the soldier has gone through thousands of dangers and finally joined the big army. He was so excited that tears filled his eyes and said excitedly: "Finally found the organization." The ancients don't need to look for it, the family is them organization.This sense of belonging and security of the same ancestors is irreplaceable.

Alluring country and alluring city, beautiful women are hard to come by again.In the same way, it is hard to find family members again and again when they are all over the country and all over the city.Family, a non-renewable resource.China, which is full of disasters and frequent wars, has broken the memories of many families.Being born as a human being may go back ten or twenty generations, but the more distant ancestors can no longer know the stories about them, their joys, sorrows, sorrows, and joys, which have all returned to the dust forever. It is often said that Mr. Lu Xun is the one who has the most thorough understanding of the human nature of Chinese people.In my opinion, what Mr. Lu Xun pays special attention to is the dark and humble side of the human nature of the Chinese people. In troubled times, Mr. Lu Xun has to take this as a warning.But what Confucius paid attention to was the bright and glorious side of the human nature of the Chinese people.An Analects of Confucius, after a thousand years, still allows people to read pride and happiness from it.The master can be said to know the people of the country, and because of this self-confidence, the master said: "It may be known for a hundred generations, even if it succeeds the Zhou Dynasty."Within a hundred generations, the master knows it.After a hundred generations, Master Zhihu?How would Master feel if he lived to this day?
