Buddhist stories 2023-06-18

Master Xingyun in Taiwan once said something like this: a very famous professor and accomplice of his colleague took his daughter who was in middle school to the street to buy fruits.When selecting fruits, the professor dressed simply and didn’t look like a rich man, and the vendor was impatient: Do you buy it or not?The professor politely answered: Buy!The professor handed the selected fruit to the vendor, who said: This kind of fruit is very expensive, can you afford it?The professor smiled and said with a humble tone: I can afford it.On the way home, the 15-year-old daughter asked her father: Dad, you are a famous professor admired by everyone in college, but today you asked a hawker to shout. Aren't you angry?The professor replied: Don’t be angry.Being rational, polite and humble in dealing with others is my standard of dealing with people. I never lower my level because of how others treat me.

Once, Qi Gong visited Rongxing Gallery and saw that the outside painting stalls were filled with famous calligraphy and paintings, including Zhao Puchu, Dong Shouping and his own works, which were found on each stall, and some were still wholesale.A stall owner was an old lady. When he saw Qi Gong coming, the old lady said to others: This old man has a good personality. He just saw that I was selling fakes that imitated him and would not make trouble.Qi Gong heard the old lady's words and nodded to the old lady, as if he was calling a friend.When the fellow industry insider asked, Qi Lao said in a calm tone: She is in her seventies, and it is not easy to rely on this to maintain her family income. I can't cut off her life.
