Since I have memories, Zhang Sanhua has never heard Lin Ergou say this to her. At first glance, she was stunned and stared at Lin Ergou with wide eyes.

Lin Ergou suppressed his smile, reached out to rub Zhang Sanhua's head, and then quickly evacuated the case site.

A few breaths later, Zhang Sanhua's suppressed roar came from behind Lin Ergou.

"Lin! Er! Dog!"

Because of this trip, Lin Ergou's steps were much lighter on his way home. When he arrived at the gate of the yard, he happened to meet Mr. Lin and drink tea while basking in the sun.

Seeing Lin Ergou, Mr. Lin was stunned for a moment: "Are you back?"

"Yes." Lin Ergou nodded and bowed.

Qi Zheng's letter arrived four days ago. At this time, Lin Ergou asked him to carry a small bag and came back. Mr. Lin knew that Lin Ergou must have gone to the Zhang family first.

Mr. Lin was in a complicated mood after raising his son for so long and returning home without going home first.

"It's good to come back. If Xue Lang stays in your room, you can make do with Yin Jing first."

"Yes." This was something that Lin Ergou had expected long ago.

"Brother Ergou, you're back!" Yin Jing rushed out of the study excitedly, his eyes lit up, "Brother Ergou, did my mother ask you to bring me something?"

"Uh..." Lin Ergou was a little embarrassed. He was not familiar with the Yin family, let alone going to meet the Yin family's wife.

Seeing Lin Ergou hesitating, Yin Jing thought to himself that something was wrong.

"Just eat snacks, don't even have a piece of clothing?"

"Yin Jing... your parents, maybe I don't know, I'm going to come back."

"A liar, didn't you agree to go home if you graduate? How could they not care about your movements?"

Lin Ergou winked at Mr. Lin for help, and Mr. Lin coughed.

"Ergou has to travel for three more years. When his three-year journey is over, he will take you back directly."

Understanding what Mr. Lin said, Yin Jing was greatly hit and ran out in a daze.

"Sir, why bother... why bother say that?" Yin Jing was unhappy when he came back, and Lin Ergou felt a little guilty.

"What should I say, tell him, because as long as he is on his mother's attention, he will not be on his father, so his father asks me to stay for as long as he can, it is best to marry a wife before going back?" Mr. Lin rolled his eyes.

"This sounds like an angry word, how can you take it seriously?"

"That's why I asked you to take him back after traveling."

This topic ends here. Mr. Lin wants to introduce Lin Ergou to Xue Lang: "Come with me, I will take you to meet Xue Lang."

Lin Ergou followed, and Mr. Lin stopped again: "Forget it, you'd better go and wash it first."

When Lin Ergou washed up, food was already set up in the main room. Xue Lang saw Lin Ergou coming and stood up and bowed, and Lin Ergou returned the gift.

"This is Xue Lang. He teaches here these days, and the villagers like him very much." Mr. Lin introduced the two, "This is a dog son. I just returned from studying in Lucheng Academy."

Lin Ergou bowed again: "I have met Mr. Xue."

Xue Lang avoided this ceremony: "Just call me my name directly, and you can't call me a sir."

"Okay, if you have anything to do, you can communicate with yourself and sit down and have a meal first." Mr. Lin said.

"Now?" Lin Ergou was stunned for a moment, "Aren't you waiting for Yin Jing?"

"No wait." Mr. Lin signaled Lin Ergou to sit down, "He knew about lunch time. If he didn't come back, it means he wouldn't eat."

Lin Ergou felt that this was not good for other people's children, but Mr. Lin had already talked, so he had to sit down obediently.

After dinner, Mr. Lin intended to ask Lin Ergou to communicate more with Xue Lang, and asked Lin Ergou to go to the study, turning today's lecture into a debate about whether human nature is good or human nature is evil.

Lin Ergou believes that when a person is born, he is naturally good.

"The crow feeds back, the goats kneel down, and the birds and beasts are like this, let alone those who are the spirits of all things."

Xue Lang smiled.

"Then Brother Lin means that people are the same as beasts."

"I didn't mean that." Lin Ergou frowned, "It's just that the newborn children are unfamiliar with the world and are the most pure and flawless. It's also the fault of their parents when they grow up."

"Your words remind me of an enlightenment book in Nanyue. It says that when a person is born, he is good in nature, has similar natures, and has different habits. He also says that he does not teach him, but his father's fault."

"Indeed, I also enlightened this book. The gentleman from the academy praised this book and said it should be promoted nationwide." Lin Ergou nodded in agreement.

"Since the nature is good, why should I teach it again? Since it is possible to teach it badly, then it would be better if I didn't teach it."

"That's not what it means. Although nature is good, you still need to learn how to deal with people and things, and this has nothing to do with nature."

"It doesn't matter?" Xue Langyue felt that Lin Ergou was innocent. "Treat people gently and don't talk about human affairs behind their backs. This is to deal with people. But a person with good nature will do this without being taught."

"The secular views all advocate good. If human nature is evil, why not advocate evil?"

"For the sake of race continuation, I do not deny that goodness is good, and I also hope that the world can do more good deeds. But look at all dynasties, no one has given himself to a high position under the guise of serving the people." Xue Lang looked at Lin Ergou with a very tolerant look, "And the people did not get much benefit. Even if there is, it is to maintain their own rule."

Lin Ergou frowned: "What does this have to do with whether nature is good or nature is evil."

"Of course it's related. Because the root of human nature is selfishness and selfishness."

Lin Ergou couldn't stand it anymore.

"Mr. Xue means that there is no good person in the world, they are all selfish villains?"

Xue Lang nodded: "Yes."

Lin Ergou was furious, his face flushed and didn't know what to say.

"For some people, wealth is more important, so he can not have reputation for money. For some people, life is more important, so he can betray everything for life. For some people, reputation is more important, so he can not have money or life for reputation. But no matter what, it is to make one's heart feel comfortable."

"It's ridiculous!" Lin Ergou shook his sleeves.

Xue Lang still smiled, stared around and stared at the two of them.

"I don't expect you to know much about this today. I just hope that you will do things according to your own will in the future and think clearly about what you want. Whether you are farming honestly, want to do business, or be a hero in the green forest. Whether you are a good person or a bad person, you only remember to succeed, lose, and only remember to have a clear conscience."

After the afternoon class, Lin Ergou was depressed. On the one hand, he felt that Xue Lang was saying something, but on the other hand, he didn't want to shake his beliefs. Mr. Lin and Xue Langhe didn't bother him when they met him, but just greeted him in the evening, it was time to go to the Zhang family for a banquet.

I walked to the Zhang family absent-mindedly. The yard was brightly lit outside the yard, and there were more than a dozen round tables. Most of the villagers had already arrived, and it seemed very lively.

Xue Lang had lunch here, and at this time he invited his group of Yin's army to occupy a table alone.

Lin Ergou wanted to talk to Zhang Sanhua, but at the table they were in the room, because his mother was embarrassed and all of them were women, so he couldn't move forward.

This meal was helped by the women from the village. There were three big meats for ten people on each table, which was a rare sum of the country people. But firstly, they were in a bad mood, and secondly, they were not surprised by eating meat at home, so Lin Ergou had no taste in this banquet.

After finally finishing the meal, Lin Ergou found the right opportunity and pulled Zhang Sanhua aside who came out to help clean up.
