When he walked to the door of the house, Feng Shao couldn’t help being slightly taken aback.
A young girl was standing at the door, looking at him from a distance.
Feng Shao stepped forward, and before he could speak, the girl said, “Senior brother Feng, don’t worry! During your absence, I will take good care of my sister-in-law.”
Feng Shao nodded and said, “I’m sorry, and thank you.”
The girl is Lu Qingyuan, a disciple of the third branch of the Taiwei Sect.
Speaking of which, in the past year, Lu Qingyuan’s sense of presence has become less and less.
In Feng Shao’s impression, Lu Qingyuan seemed to be immersed in work all the time.
No matter what is told to her, she will always try her best to do it well.
Besides, she hardly had any additional communication with Feng Shao.
Yet at this moment, Lu Qingyuan was waiting for him at the door, which was beyond Feng Shao’s expectation.Lu Qingyuan lowered her head and was silent for a long while before she opened her mouth and said, “Senior brother Feng, I’ve always wanted to apologize to you, but I just couldn’t find a chance…”
Feng Shao asked suspiciously, “Apologize? What are you apologizing for?”
Lu Qingyuan said with a bitter expression, “Of course it is because of Ye Chen’s affairs. The junior sister did not know people well and shielded the sinner, which caused the sect to suffer.
Many innocent senior brothers and sisters also suffered disasters because of this. Senior brother Feng even left the sect because of this. I’m ashamed, but I don’t know how to explain myself to senior brother.”
But Feng Shao laughed, “Junior sister Lu, you said that wrongly.”
Lu Qingyuan raised her head with a puzzled expression.
Feng Shao said frankly, “To be honest, when you first sheltered Ye Chen, I was indeed a little angry.
But the cause of my anger is not that you sheltered Ye Chen, but that you don’t know right from wrong, loyalty and goodness from evil. But people are not sages, so who can be without fault? If you know your faults, you can correct them, and there is no problem about it. So after you realized your mistakes and repented, I had not been angry with you anymore.”
Lu Qingyuan looked embarrassed, “Senior brother Feng doesn’t blame me, but I have no way not to blame myself.”
Feng Shao shook his head and said, “Junior sister Lu, you have entered a dead end. That’s Ye Chen’s nature. Some things are destined to happen with or without you. You don’t need to take the mistakes of others as your own, because the mistakes everyone makes can only be paid for by themselves.”
Speaking of this, Feng Shao said with emotion, “I watched you grow up. In my eyes, you are still like those children who went up the mountain. Over the years, I have taught you to practice, I have taken you to travel, and I have brought you to help develop the Taiwei Sect step by step. I am not only your senior brother, but also your parent and teacher. Everything you learned while studying in the sect was taught by me. If you make mistakes, in the final analysis, there are also my faults. I can’t blame you all the time.”
Lu Qingyuan’s eyes suddenly turned red, “Senior brother Feng…”
Feng Shao smiled and said: “I know you have always had knots in your heart, and you don’t know how to deal with them. But to take this step, everything still depends on you. If you are willing to come here and admit your mistakes to me today, this is your progress. I’m very relieved in my heart. But I hope you can understand that your senior brother’s heart is not that small, and he won’t always blame you because of the past. Your nature is not bad, it’s just that you were blinded by a scoundrel for a while. As long as you know your mistakes and correct them, that makes you a good girl.”
Lu Qingyuan let out a laugh, “Huh… Hehe, senior brother still treats us like children?”
Feng Shao said with a smile, “You were all brought up the mountain by me, raised by me, and taught by me. To me, aren’t you just children?”
Only then did Lu Qingyuan understand why Feng Shao was always able to tolerate them with such a big heart. Even if they made mistakes, Feng Shao would not criticize them too much.
Feng Shao doesn’t care what mistakes they made, what he cares about is their character, and what he cares about is their cognitive ability.
Feng Shao believes that no one in this world is infallible.
It is not terrible to make mistakes. What is terrible is to make mistakes again and again without repentance.
Lu Qingyuan knows that she can correct her mistakes, so Feng Shao is willing to forgive her. People like Ye Chen are selfish in their bones, so he will never feel that he is wrong, and he will never know how to repent after making a mistake, so Feng Shao will never forgive this kind of person.
In the world of cultivation, some people think that qualifications are the most important, while others think that character is the most important, and Feng Shao clearly belongs to the latter.
In his view, if the conduct is bad, the better the qualifications, the greater the harm.
Blindly focusing on qualifications, but ignoring the cultivation of character is tantamount to breeding bloodthirsty tigers.
In addition, Feng Shao’s willingness to forgive Lu Qingyuan generously also lies in his status and responsibilities in the sect.
He takes on the role of a brother who is like a father, and it is his duty to discipline his juniors and sisters well.
Therefore, he couldn’t easily judge the faults of the junior brothers and sisters like an iron-faced judge.
He could only try his best to put them on the right path like an old father.
Although it is a little tiring to do so, Feng Shao also feels gratified from the bottom of his heart seeing these junior brothers and sisters who have grown up under his own guidance.
