In today's world, it is inevitable that some of it is too noisy.
The subway is buzzing with people, the TV is chattering, and the square is full of songs and dances. We are in the middle of the city, and we don't look lonely in the crowds, but we need to use the noise to get peace of mind.
In life, many of us like to talk and let others know about our lives, but rarely listen to others.
And those who know how to listen, all exude a unique charm, but also a quiet and abundant soul.
Time is hurried, we are in a hurry with the stars and the moon, the footsteps are hurried, we also need to stop, be quiet, listen to the wind, listen to the rain, listen to others, and listen to our own hearts.

Listen to others, earn respect, and reap success
Socrates once said, "Heaven has given man two ears and two eyes, but only one mouth, so that he may hear more and speak less." ”
Most people live in the world, most of them are self-centered, and they feel that what they do is also in line with common sense, so they turn a deaf ear to other people's words. Therefore, after getting out of the predicament of life, most of them will also have the feeling of "only being in this mountain", and regret that they will listen to others earlier.

If it is carried out, it is determined by the middle father. ”
He entrusted the country's major affairs to Guan Zhong to handle, learned to listen, and achieved his own career.
However, later, Guan Zhong became seriously ill, and in order to show his sincerity, he also discussed with The Duke of Qi Huan about the selection of the prime minister, especially emphasizing that the Duke of Qi Huan should be kept away from Yi Ya and the other three traitors. Qi Huangong superficially agreed, but when Guan Zhong died of illness, he reused the three of them.
As a result, the three people monopolized power, and eventually the power of Qi Huangong was out of control, and there was great chaos in the DPRK, and Qi Huangong was starved to death.

Sun Shuilin and Sun Donglin are both contract foremen, and according to their rules, before Chinese New Year's Eve, they must settle the wages of the migrant worker brothers working below, so that the family can also live a good year in a down-to-earth manner.

The younger brother could not help the older brother, and he did not expect that this parting would become forever.

After the younger brother Sun Donglin helped take care of the aftermath, he still thought about his brother's original intention, put away his grief and went back to pay the workers.

"You repay according to your conscience, how much you report I give, you can't be ignorant of your conscience, I don't have a black conscience, let's make a conscience account."
It is this account of conscience that warms the cold winter and warms people's hearts, and by eight o'clock in the evening of the twenty-ninth day of the waxing moon, all the workers' wages have been paid, and the final amount is no different from what my brother said before he died.
