Chapter 19 Talk about public morality

The toilet was vacuum-suction, and it was extremely powerful. With a snap, the little girl's butt was actually sucked, and she couldn't get up, crying and screaming in pain. The child showed a kind of upbringing that was not seen in the upper class of Western society. toilet and tv Many years ago, I read a joke—— A husband came home and asked his wife, "Which man has been here today?" The wife was taken aback and said, "No!" "Yes!" The husband said with certainty. The wife thought about it again, and finally remembered: "Oh! That's right! The plumber came because the gas stove couldn't be turned on." Then she asked her husband, "How did you know a man came?"

"Of course I know," the husband said, "I saw the toilet seat was lifted up, he must have gone to our toilet." I thought it was funny at the time, thinking that Western men are really polite, unlike some big Eastern men , I don’t care about women when I go to the toilet, and just drip urine on the toilet seat. But you know, when I told this joke to an American friend one day, what did she say? She smiled: "This worker is not educated, but uneducated. How could he not put the cushion back after he went to the toilet?" I saw a news on TV yesterday, which talked about this "education" again.

That news is fresh—— A little girl went to the toilet in the middle of the night, did not turn on the light, and fell into a drowsy sleep. Unexpectedly, her father went to the toilet first, forgot to put the cushion back, sat down on her buttocks, and half of herself sat in the toilet; Hold on, and touch the pumping button again.The toilet was vacuum-suction, and it was extremely powerful. With a snap, the little girl's butt was actually sucked, and she couldn't get up, crying and screaming in pain. In the end, the fire brigade rushed to "pull out" the little girl's butt.

The TV reporter also arrived, and saw the little girl's mother scolding her husband at the camera: "It's so uneducated! You don't put the cushion back after going to the toilet." Her husband also kept blushing and apologized to his daughter, saying that he was too careless and rude. Listen to me, it probably doesn't make much sense.Because you were taught to put the toilet seat back on.The teacher will even teach you that if you have guests, you must cover the toilet lid, otherwise it is impolite. But for me, the news was exciting. why? Because when I go to the toilet, I only know how to lift the seat cushion, but don't know how to put it back after use; if you are that little girl, you might also just sit down in the toilet.

So after I read the news yesterday, I decided to "make amends". In the future, I must think about the girls at home and remember to "return the cushions to their original positions". When it comes to "returning to its original position", I want to tell you another thing about returning to its original position. Earlier this year, I was in Taiwan, and I went to a friend's house, where the kids were watching cartoons on TV. When the cartoon was over, the kid turned off the TV and left the living room, only to run back, turn the TV back on, use the remote to change channels, and then turn it off.

At that time, I thought she wanted to watch it, but didn't dare to watch it, so I laughed and said, "Look! Why did it turn on and off? It won't bother me." Do you know what the little girl who was only in the first grade of middle school said? She said that because her parents both watched the same channel, she had to "return to the original position" first, so that when the adults turned on the TV next time, it would be that channel instead of having to reselect the channel. I was also very surprised.I found that in a society where many big men don’t even lift the seat cushion when going to the toilet, there is a child who can be so considerate of others. That child has shown an upbringing that even the children of the upper class in the Western world may not have.

From that little incident, I was impressed by that family and even Taiwan's education. Good! Having said so much, now I want to ask you, do you go to replace the Chinese channel I watch with your cartoon channel every time after dinner, and then turn off the phone and leave after watching it? Can you follow the example of that Taiwanese kid and also help me "return the channel to its original position"? Of course, if one day, you watch more TV than me and your mother, and when you fix the channel, I will also tune the channel back to your place after watching the Chinese channel.
