Chapter 500 (Five Hundred) Tradition
After hearing this, Tie Hongyan slowly raised his head and looked at Leyu, feeling very comfortable. She really liked Leyu, perhaps because she had such an impression of Leyu. Well, she couldn't bear to be her sister anymore. She couldn't be sure what would happen to the person who became her sister in the future. If someone else wanted to get closer to her before the competition was over, she might think about whether that person had other motives, but Leyu would not let her think that way.
Tie Hongyan didn't say yes or no, he just said: "I also appreciate you as a person."
Le Yu was very happy to hear this, but still didn't know whether she agreed or not, and said, "Young patriarch, when you say this, do you mean you agree or disagree?"
"I'm asking you a question, and you answer it truthfully, okay?" Tie Hongyan said.
"OK."
"Are you not satisfied with me killing the man with blue armor?" Tie Hongyan asked seriously.
Leyu didn't expect that she would ask this question. Because Lian Boyuan had warned her, she didn't want to tell her true thoughts, but she knew that she had accidentally said, "I told my grandfather before that I felt that Tiecang people were so oppressive." "The man in blue armor is unreasonable." In this case, if she quickly changed her statement to another one at this time, Tie Hongyan would feel that she was dishonest to her, so she said: "I...I'm not targeting you, I just don't I understand why the people in Tiecang treat the people in blue armor like that.”
Tie Hongyan asked tentatively: "If I tell you that this is tradition, what do you think of such an answer?"
"Then I have to say more. With all due respect, it is undeniable that there are traditions that are beneficial to people's development in the world, but I really don't see what's good about treating the traditions of the Lanjia people like the Tiecang people...so... Besides, tradition is what the predecessors did. Why do future generations have to copy what their predecessors did? Let’s put aside some traditions that were never necessary to exist. Let’s talk about some traditions that were beneficial to people in previous eras. With the development of the times, the traditions that were adapted to the times in the past are no longer adapted to the times. Why should future generations hold on to them? If you can't find any other reason to do something, just use tradition as the reason to do it. In fact, there is still no reason. If the only reason for doing something is tradition, it already proves that it is unreasonable. Tradition itself is really not enough to constitute a reason. The tradition left by the predecessors should never be used to imprison future generations. In the prison of multiple choices, future generations should not regard the traditions left by their predecessors as unquestionable authoritative guides and obey them. In my opinion, in many cases, the reason why traditions are still there is. It's for others to break." Before Leyu returned to Tiecangting, she had seen people restraining people with outdated traditions many times, and she felt extremely disgusted. Her words at this time could be regarded as something that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time. and confided it. Some of the words that Lian Boyuan said to her a few days ago also made her feel like she was being restrained. At this time, she couldn't help but say these words, which made her feel a lot happier.
Tie Hongyan looked at Le Yu with wide eyes and a serious expression. Le Yu had finished speaking, but Tie Hongyan seemed to be waiting for her to continue.
Le Yu suddenly felt that he was being a bit arrogant in using Tie Hongyan's words to express his views on those who adhere to tradition, and immediately added: "Young patriarch, let me emphasize again, I am not targeting you! You... you won't... …” (End of this chapter)
