"Really? That's great. I'm going to have a slingshot now. I must learn how to use it. Daddy will make the most beautiful slingshot for you and me." Dabao happily ran two laps in the yard.
The two smiled at each other. Sometimes children's requests are really simple, and their hearts are very pure. Whoever treats them well will gain their sincerity.
"Oh, right, when I was hunting pheasants, I met Erniu, who was carrying a basket of pine cones on his back. He was so desperate to get the cones that he ran into the wild forest. I didn't dare to go there easily.
I reminded him a few times and gave him a pheasant. It wasn't easy for him either. He was as thin as a stick and worked very hard just to survive.
Since you like pine nuts, let's buy all the pine nuts he has and offer him a higher price so that he can prepare some food for the winter and get through this winter.
The poor take care of themselves, while the rich help the world. Although we are not very successful, we still have a few dollars.
"I think so too. I will buy some of the mountain products he has that we need and give him a few more dollars so that he can spend the winter safely. He is still a teenager. I will do this for no other reason than to live up to my conscience." Li Qingyun also replied.
When their eyes met, they felt that their souls were connected and they had a tacit understanding. It is really comfortable to be with people who have the same values. One can understand the other with just a glance.
Dabao looked at his parents and wondered what they were talking about. "Dad, what did you mean by 'when you're poor, you're rich ...
Gu Tingzhou squatted down and said to his son word by word: "When you are poor, you should take care of yourself; when you are rich, you should help the world. This means that when a person is unsuccessful, he should keep himself clean and focus on improving his personal cultivation and moral character; when a person is successful, he should think about promoting goodness."
"Then I understand. It means that our family is rich, so we should help Brother Erniu." Dabao said quickly.
"Dabao, there are many ways and methods to help others. You don't need money to help. This is also a science.
It depends on whether the person you are helping is worthy of help. If he is more capable than you, you will be doing more harm than good by helping him. If you have money and you have to help others blindly, then the world will be in chaos.
Why don't mom and dad give your brother Erniu money directly, but help him by buying mountain products? Because he has his own self-esteem. If we give him money directly, he will feel uneasy and bothered by being given alms, which will be detrimental to his growth in the long run.
So, helping others is not a simple thing to do, you will understand it slowly in the future."
Gu Tingzhou analyzed the logic to his son, and Dabao seemed to understand it but not quite.
The child is still young, and education is inherently delayed. One day in the future, when he experiences more, he will suddenly have an epiphany and understand the truth.
Many things take time to verify slowly, and this is especially true for children's growth and education. Adults plant small seeds in their hearts, and one day they will grow into towering trees or bloom into a sea of flowers.
