C132 The Memories of the Old Railway Worker

"Son. . . " With a warm expression, Su Jianguo looked at his son. "Dad has a small painting book. It is the book that dad read when he was 12 years old. How about you take a look?"

"Alright. " Su Cong became curious. His dad's childhood?

Su Jianguo took out a book titled "Old railway worker and passed it to Su Cong. Son, take a look. Then, tell me what you feel, okay?"

"Dad, you started reading comics at the age of twelve?" Su Cong couldn't believe it.

"Yeah, dad was illiterate at that time. No one taught dad how to read, but dad learned a few hundred words when he was in the fifth grade. He was about to graduate from primary school. He's not as smart as my family. He only knows a few hundred words at the age of six. " Su Jianguo smiled.

"Mhm, I understand. Dad, I will tell you in a few days. " Su Cong said.

"Okay," Su Cong said. Su Jianguo nodded.

He watched as his son solemnly placed the old railway worker in his schoolbag. After finishing his meal, he silently took his schoolbag back to his small room and started reading carefully.

Su Jianguo looked at his son and slowly smiled.

"Da Su, you are so happy?" Li Ying asked curiously.

"Our son is getting better and better. Of course he is happy. " Su Jianguo smiled and narrowed his eyes.

"However, can the child understand this comic? After all, it is an era apart. " Li Ying asked.

"Definitely. " Su Jianguo smiled and said, "I believe that no matter how many generations have passed, children's stories are still full of vitality. "

"True. " Li Ying smiled.

A few days later, Su Cong walked over to Su Jianguo's side and said seriously and solemnly, "Dad, I've finished reading the manga. "

"Mhm, how do you feel?" Su Jianguo put down his glasses and looked at his son.

Su Cong took a look at the book Su Jianguo was reading. This was the book Su Jianguo was reading.

"Dad, I think this old railway worker's manga is telling a story about an old man who persists day after day, telling a story about how to make a skilled but not impetuous craftsman. " Su Cong uses the words he learned to speak as much as possible like a young adult.

"Mm, then what did you see?" Su Jianguo became curious.

"Dad, what about you?" Su Cong did not answer first.

"At that time, I admired the persistent spirit of the old worker. Besides, I really admired the spirit of the old worker. What about you? " Su Jianguo became curious. He wanted to know what words this smart son of his would say that would make him feel emotional.

"Dad, what I see is a story of ten years of sharpening needles. It is not necessary to reveal the depth of martial arts. As long as you work hard to complete your work and do it to the extreme, you will definitely gain something. But. . . Don't look around too much on the road of success. " Su Cong said, "Focus. "

"You're right. " Su Jianguo smiled.

"Dad, I was thinking about something. Why did you show me this comic? Could it be that this comic has some other meaning? " Su Cong asked curiously.

"Son, you said you can read now, so why don't dad write a few words for you?" Su Jianguo smiled.

"Alright. " Despite his curiosity, Su Cong was still waiting for his father, Su Jianguo, to write.

Su Jianguo walked to a long table. This was the brush, ink, and inkstone that Li Ying had prepared for him. Su Jianguo picked up the brush and wrote the word "person. " After that, Su Jianguo stood up and let Su Cong look at him from the side. He asked, "Do you look like a person?"

"Like. . . Father. . . What is this word?" Su Cong became curious.

"Man, every stroke is the word of man, the golden cauldron writing method. And this is the hand, and this is the foot. " Su Jianguo smiled. " It means that there is a hand and a foot, and one uses his hands to work hard to get rich. He uses his feet to travel thousands of miles to read tens of thousands of books. "

"Dad, does this person have any special meaning?" Su Cong did not understand why his dad wanted to write the word "person" in the golden cauldron.

"A person is an indomitable appearance, the most precious thing in the world, the spirit of all things. Why? What is a horizontal line in the middle of a man?" Su Jianguo asked his son, Su Cong.

"It's big. " Su Cong answered without thinking.

"Yes, big. " Su Jianguo wrote a "big" golden cauldron text on the paper, "Han Li, Tang Kai, look at the letter and the letter. "

"Father, what is Han Li, Tang Kai? Why is it that this person who looks like he's running, and this person who looks like he's looking down from a high vantage point?" Su Cong asked curiously.

"The evolution of our language in China starts from the Oracle Bone Text. It evolves to the golden cauldron language, which is the text engraved on the bronze artifact. Then, the text on the bronze artifact evolves into a book created by Li Si. This was the origin of the book being identical to the text, the carriage being on the same track, and the weight being equal. After the Han Dynasty evolved, the book became an official document that was implemented throughout the country, because the Han Dynasty was a resistance against the Xiongnu. In the era of fighting against the invasion of foreign races, the people of this era practiced martial arts. Although they had to run to defend against foreign enemies, the words carried the memories of the era. They had a lively, lively, and running look. And when it comes to the Tang Dynasty. . . "

Su Jianguo seemed to be able to feel the pride of the strong Han and the strong Tang, "The strong Han and the strong Tang, the Great Tang that comes from all directions, is the main country of the world, the capital of Tian Dynasty. And here, the people of the Great Tang are steady and proud. They have the appearance of looking down on the world from above. Thus, the letter of exemplary at this time is like this. "

"Then, what does this great role mean at this time?" Su Cong asked curiously.

"It has the meaning of being indomitable, and it also has the meaning of being outstanding, but the most important thing is the coming of age ceremony. What is the coming of age ceremony? It is the etiquette to symbolize the baby's coming of age and become an adult. After a long time, both men and women have to perform this ceremony to express their coming of age. " Su Jianguo wrote on a piece of paper, one stroke at a time, in the form of a letter.

"Son, although you don't have much knowledge about ancient literature, but. . . " Su Jianguo raised his head and looked at Su Cong seriously. "The culture of the old ancestor cannot be lost, nor can it be lost. Therefore, I still hope you can remember it. "

Su Cong nodded and looked at Su Jianguo. "Mhm. "

When Su Jianguo raised his pen, it wrote:

A newborn is called a baby. When a person is not yet old, he or she will be called a baby. When one is two to three years old, they are called children.

When a girl is seven years old, she will be called two years old. A boy at 7 years old was called Shaonian. Below ten years old was yellow mouth.

From the age of thirteen to the age of fifteen, he was known as the year of spoon dancing. 15 to 20 years old is called the year of the elephant dance.

When the girl was 12 years old, she was known as the Year of the Golden Hairpin. The girl was 13 years old, which was also known as the Year of the Soy Sauce. The girl was fifteen years old, and was also known as the year of the beancurd.

The girl was 16 years old. At twenty years old, she was called Peach Blossom Age. 24 years old was called Flower Age.

At 20 years old, he was called the Weak Crown. 30 years old was called 30 years old. A man in his forties is called the old man in his forties. The age of 50 was the age of life.

60 years old referred to Hua Jia or Ear Following Old. Seventy years old referred to old Ephemeral Ephemeral Ephemeral Ephemeral Ephemeral Ephemeral Age. Eighty years old was called the Year of the Staff Dynasty. Eighty to ninety years old was considered an old age.

One hundred years old was a happy period.

Su Jianguo looked at his son and slowly said, "China has a history of 5000 years. As a person, there are only rules when doing things. If you want to do well, you must first learn how to be a person. As a person, you must know how to address yourself and how to address yourself. "

Su Jianguo rubbed the top of his son's head and said," Babies, swaddling clothes, raising children, headquarter horns, they refer to birth, not being older than one's age, infants, and the youth you are currently in, or yellow mouth. "

"Yellow mouth child, you mean my age?" Su Cong became curious.

"Yes. " Su Jianguo nodded.

"When you are older, you start reading. When you study in school, you are no longer a child, but a true youth. At this time, it is time for the five elephants to dance. Scoop. To learn cooking, to cook four books and five scriptures in the stomach. Learn the essence, grasp the essence. Absorb and fuse. As if referring to me, our old ancestor said in a loud voice, An elephant is invisible, that is what it means. The image is your analysis of the matter. It's your ability to look at things and solve problems. " Su Jianguo slowly continued.

"In other words, my personal opinion and understanding, right?" Su Cong recalled a word his mother had said to him.

"Yes. " Su Jianguo rubbed his son's head. "That's what I meant. Your mother has told you quite a lot of words. "

"Mhm, I have learned quite a few words. "

"After that is the coming of age ceremony that people often talk about, which is also the year of weakness. A crown is to wear a hat or a crown. With a hat and a crown, there is a responsibility. If you wear the wrong hat, it would be an injustice. If you wear it properly, it would be a treasure. Do you want to be an innocent person, or do you want to be an innocent person, or do you want to be an evil horse? At this moment, you have to keep an eye on your own behavior, and then put on a proper hat. " Su Jianguo smiled. "And this is the deeper meaning of the word 'big'. Dad also hopes that after you become an adult, After becoming an adult, you can be a good person with a proper headdress and hat. "

"Dad, I will" Su Cong nodded seriously.

"What if you add a sum of money to the top?" Su Jianguo looked at Su Cong. "Do you know what word it is?"

"God. " Su Cong recognized this word.

"No, it's a husband. " Su Jianguo wrote the word "husband" in the golden cauldron, "the word husband for a real man, the word husband for an adult man. "

The word "husband" was written in the golden text. Su Cong looked at Su Jianguo in puzzlement.

"A husband, a man who can hold up the sky and bear the weight of the earth. Eight inches is a foot, ten feet is a zhang, and a man is eight feet long. That is why he is called a husband. " Su Jianguo rubbed his son's head.

"Dad, I don't understand. " Su Cong had yet to reach the ability to learn ancient languages.

"The meaning of this sentence is that the average height of an adult man is eight feet. Thus, it gives a husband the meaning that ten feet is ten feet. Eight feet is a husband, what do you mean? He was a good man who could hold up the heavens and support the earth. And what was the characteristic of a man? That was to do things steadily, and to be able to pass on the will of the old ancestor. To be able to raise the spirit of China, to be trusted by later generations. They could also make their peers feel at ease and have a sense of responsibility. He is a responsible person, a person who keeps his promises. "

Su Jianguo hugged his son on his lap and looked at Su Cong. "Son. As a man, we must do things to live up to our conscience. We have to live up to our neighbors, and also our compatriots who are descendants of the Fiery Emperor. We have to have a ruler in our hearts. We have to live up to eight feet of life. Ten feet is perfect for filling up the space, one hundred percent perfect. Eight feet was enough to give people two feet, giving others space to advance and retreat. It gave others space to make a name for themselves, and also gave them a chance to take a step back and open up the sky. But at the same time. . . "

Su Jianguo looked at Su Cong. " You have to be worthy of your eight-foot-tall body again. I can't kneel down to someone with a weak bone, nor can I bow down to someone without any backbone. I should be neither servile nor overbearing, and I have principles. He should have a sense of propriety, a sense of grace, and a sense of propriety. He should be a man of integrity when doing things. The first thing to do when doing things was to be a person. You have to know what kind of person you are. "

"Husband. . . As a person. . . Neither servile nor overbearing. . . There are principles. . . He has to advance and retreat. There is integrity. . . " Su Cong's eyes lit up. This was a lively language class, slowly injecting the pride of China into the hearts of the next generation of young men.
