Chapter 2 Aunt's Postmodern Life 2

--------------- Aunt's Postmodern Life 2 (1) --------------- It’s not easy to find things with high IQ at will. Now the overwhelming recruitment of talents will tell you that there is no need to talk about it if you are over 35 years old. Even sea turtles (returning) with British old American diplomas (returning) become kelp (waiting), and kelp becomes dolphins (stocking) ), the wages are jumping off the building, and he is the boss of an uneducated private enterprise.Who cares about you, a 60-year-old lady.Ye Rutang said sister, you can stand and talk without back pain, survival of the fittest, don't be too unrealistic.Ye Rulan repeatedly called and said: "A tutor is a tutor, and not doing housework is the bottom line! You have to fight for the survival of the fittest!" If people compromise on everything, they always give people a feeling of helplessness.You can't translate high-level professional materials, such as children's literature, or foreign materials about beauty, weight loss, and sex life. You can always give full play to your strengths and maintain your true colors.But where can such a job be found out of thin air?

However, Ye Rutang was provoked by his younger sister, and also became bloody. The next day, he dismissed Mrs. Huang's "tutor".The couple are eager to see their children become successful, and they pay attention to the dignity of teachers. They asked Ye Rutang to specialize in the English of their 9-year-old son. Three times a week, not only did the teacher not do housework, but there was also a babysitter in Anhui to serve the teacher. Tea, coffee, fruits and vegetables, hot towels are all available. , A snack was added in the middle of class.At the beginning of the class, the little boy Dongdong listened respectfully and respectfully wearing small glasses. His father listened behind him wearing a pair of big glasses.Don't move!Don't pick your nose!Don't always want to pee!Ye Rutang also found that there was a stack of popular best-selling books about successful parents on the desk.At first, she respected her father who was so cooperative, but after a few days she continued to listen with her big glasses, feeling like a supervisor.Next, he not only listened with himself, but also invited strangers to accompany him.The strangers who did not introduce their identities were of different ages, all of them had dignified expressions and formal attire, showing extraordinary confidence and focus, knowing when to nod and when to smile.After a class, during the break, Dongdong was so tired that his little head drooped, Ye Rutang went to the bathroom, she vaguely heard the big glasses calling strangers to meet, whispering, discussing something, it was simply a court hearing, the jury Stance.Four strangers came out one after another, causing Ye Rutang to not know how to greet them.The big glasses were still modest and polite, and the procedure for the nanny to serve snacks was shown. After eating the snacks and explaining the grammar behind, Dongdong cheered and ran to watch cartoons, relieved.The big glasses waited for Ye Rutang to sort out the self-edited textbooks. When he got up, he coughed and said: "Ms. Ye, it's like this, you are older than my mother, and you are quite tough." Ye Rutang listened to how to talk about health out of thin air Old man, what do you mean?The big glasses struggled to find words: "Well, it's like this, do you have children too?" Ye Rutang didn't answer, looking warily into the eyes behind his glasses.

"We are all only children now, and education is an investment. Many seniors in our company said that there is no worst investment than educating children for nothing. We all hope to raise a child of great value, right?... You see success There are many role models for parents, and I hope to be a successful parent. Are you willing to increase your investment to raise a high-quality child, or use a lower cost to raise a mediocre child? The difference is obvious, isn’t it?” Ye Rutang looked at him The foreshadowing was too far away, he put his arms on his chest, and said bluntly: "Are you saying that I increased your education costs?" He blushed suddenly, "That's not the case, I mean you are older Yes, after all, you are serious, you see that you have prepared the teaching materials yourself..."

Ye Rutang didn't want to hear people say that she was old, so she asked puzzledly: "Yeah, isn't it good? You Dongdong is only 9 years old, and I specially compiled and created a teaching method suitable for him. The vocabulary and grammar are very good. Bring it into the storytelling, make it more lively, and the children will remember it quickly." These few times in class, she tried her best to coax the little glasses, even talking and singing. The big glasses said sincerely: "Thank you for your hard work, but we feel that your method is too old-fashioned and not suitable for today's children. Also, experts judge that your spoken pronunciation is not standard enough, it is book-style, English People don’t talk like that now. My family Dongdong will definitely go to the United States to develop in the future, and learning the American style is more suitable. They say that it’s a waste of learning this way, and they are still deaf and fools in the United States. It’s impossible not to admit the flaws in our knowledge structure. !"

Ye Rutang was dumbfounded.It turned out that the lecturers were four so-called experts who he mobilized a crowd to find.Don't look at his short-sighted eyes, but his vision is far-sighted. I can't wait for my son with small glasses to wear a Harvard postdoctoral hat in one step.The most terrible thing is that Professor Ye Rutang admits that his spoken language is weak, and he went to elementary school with Chinese-style book English. He spent his whole life in the yellow land of the Eastern Hemisphere, sympathized with two-thirds of the Western people who are in dire straits in the world, and went abroad to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Still wandering in the Chinese circle, spending RMB, eating Chinese restaurants, basically not using a word of English.Counting on this kind of tutoring investment, who would dare to think that the value of the child will increase, and he will see the unlucky prospect of losing all his money.They respect the old man and his teacher, so dismissing you is also a way of showing face and overpaying, and before leaving, they gave Ye Rutang a pack of high-quality Ganoderma lucidum brain-invigorating granules.

Kuan Kuan comforted Ye Rutang in this way: "Auntie, my mother hired me with three conditions for tutoring: first, a sophomore from a prestigious school with solid knowledge; The test scores are immediately effective! Not to mention mutual benefit, who pays you to come to a tutor with high quality?" Ye Rutang thought about the English scores of the little glasses and did not see any immediate results, so he threw the textbooks he prepared by lighting the lamps into the trash box, just let out two loud farts in a fit of anger. A few days later, Ye Rutang's old classmate Sun Xiaoling introduced her to a job.She claimed that the company is in the sunrise period, and the momentum is like a rainbow, so she wants to recruit troops.She asked Ye Rutang to come out of the mountain to help the subsidiary company, the "Best Galloping Horse" furniture factory run by her younger brother, to sell water beds in the home plaza.Ye Rutang asked suspiciously: "Isn't that a salesman?" They said that they actually found someone in the furniture city to help look after the stall, and gave you a set of work clothes that represented the company's image. The monthly salary was 500, and a lunch box was provided at noon. Oh, there is a chicken leg. "With air conditioning, the wind won't blow, the rain won't catch me, and I don't have to use my brain. It's very easy!" Sun Xiaoling said eagerly.Now not only is there no IQ, but you don't need to use your brain at all, and you can get money just sitting around.Ye Rutang followed her. The home plaza was as big as a maze, and it turned ups and downs, making people dizzy. When they turned to her brother Sun Xiaoqi's manufacturer's booth, there was a huge spray-painted advertisement in front of him. A big umbrella, furniture and deck chairs emphasizing the European style, under the umbrella is the new product massage water bed that is grandly launched.The overall design of the booth is like a stage, with a cartoon flavor. It is unclear whether it is indoor or outdoor, whether it is a bath or a swimming pool.Sun Xiaoqi was sweating profusely, shook hands with Ye Rutang warmly, drank Coke with his hips on his hips, squinted his eyes complacently to appreciate his own creativity.He also took out a photo album full of paid models posing as couples enjoying the waterbed.Ye Rutang has never heard of water beds. She has slept on wooden beds, foldable beds, and bunk beds since she grew up. She has slept on earth kangs in the countryside. After the reform and opening up, she has just enjoyed Simmons.Sun Xiaoqi and his brother took out the manual and taught her first. The manual was very thick and full of pictures and texts, so she couldn't understand it. Sun Xiaoqi trained her and said: "Water bed, as the name implies, is water, but it is not ordinary water. It is water with technological content." It is not a traditional bed, it is a magical bed; it has massage and beautifying effects, and it can treat health care naturally while sleeping; no injections, no medicines, and you can change your appearance comfortably!" Ye Rutang heard a lot of words that are equal to nothing Looking at the huge water bed, he asked: "What kind of technology does water have? Can Ji Li Gu Lu sleep? How cold is it in the body?" He was stunned for a moment and replied: Nanotechnology, oh, it’s not cold, it’s warm when covered with a quilt, it’s so soft, it saves the need for mattresses and mattresses, it’s humanized, if you don’t believe me, try it yourself.” After speaking, she dragged Ye Rutang to bed.With a whimper, Ye Rutang's body sank inside, like a big frog.She just felt that she was flickering on a smooth thing, she couldn't breathe, her arms and legs were throbbing, and the brother and sister asked in her ears: "Is it comfortable?! Very comfortable?!" Finally got off the bed, Instead, she felt embarrassed, "I can't sleep on this thing, I have to have nightmares sleeping on this bed." Sun Xiaoqi encouraged her and said, "Hey, any new thing is understood by a few people at the beginning, and any opportunity has no halo .Everything in the world starts with rejection. Only by believing in trends and changing ideas can we grasp the future!" "When you reject new things, it means you are old, and when you abuse new things, it means you are finished!" Sun Xiaoling stood aside concluded. "Who said this?" "Wang Yangming, a philosopher of the Ming Dynasty!" Ye Rutang was overwhelmed by their grandiose incitement, and asked softly, "Is this easy to sell?..." Sun Xiaoqi smacked his lips and said, "Why not?" It’s easy to sell. They are bought by high-quality rich people who live in villas. There are also directors who buy them, and buy them to film some TV series about raising Xiaomi.” He whispered to Ye Rutang about the profit from selling water beds, which really shocked her . "It's people with an elegant temperament like you who have the most appeal!" He muttered.

--------------- Aunt's Postmodern Life 2 (2) --------------- Sun Xiaoling glared at her younger brother, annoyed that he couldn't make a point.He pointed her directly and said: "The key is to pay attention to the quality of life! This is a revolution in sleep. People spend two-thirds of their lives in bed! Hotbeds, beds can quietly change your appearance, your Health, your body shape, the bed is a caring lover, and it can also be a gentle killer! You can see that more than 40% of modern people have insomnia, depression; hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, cervical spondylosis, lumbar muscle strain, rough skin, And the constipation is all related to the bed!" While she was talking, a few customers came, they seemed to be very interested, they touched and looked at it curiously, asked this and that, and took turns laughing and joking to experience it on the bed.The brothers and sisters hurriedly handed out business cards and instructions, calling Ye Rutang to put on work clothes and go to work.After such training, Ye Rutang reflected on his weaknesses of lack of ambition, poor psychological quality, and outdated concepts, and decided to try it.

The next day she came to work with two books, two foreign novels she liked.Standing on this "dead" seaside, she laughed when she saw anyone. She put on her work clothes, only to find out that the work clothes turned out to be a loose pink nightgown with lace embroidered with small flowers on the chest. Wear it casually on your body.And there are only two places where she can stay from morning to night: a water bed or a deck chair.Sitting on a recliner and reading a book is very awkward, and reading a book lying on a water bed is even more nondescript. For several days in a row, people who visited the home furnishing plaza were bustling, but only children patronized the water beds. Parents took their little ones to the bed to play, like a free playground.Later, it became more deserted. The elderly, migrant workers, and stragglers were out of luck.Occasionally, I met a woman with heavy make-up, looking around with a small bureaucrat from a township enterprise on her shoulders, and went to bed with a giggle, flirting with her head and posing.Finally, a man came, a middle-aged man who looked like a gentleman, carefully looked at the instructions and samples, Ye Rutang hurried forward to start a promotional offensive, he sneered and said, "This thing, Nanami?"nonsense!Now even eggs are said to be laid by nano chickens, hum!In this place, why can't I see a social elite who wants to improve the quality of life!Ye Rutang was really upset.She turned her head and looked around at the men and women selling furniture in the next stall, but they were also out of business, eating sunflower seeds, playing poker and drilling tables, hiding in closets, making noise and enjoying themselves.She looked down on others, and they were unwilling to answer the old lady.Watching a group of people chasing the bus, shoving and fighting, the glass window of the small fashion store in front is her special channel for enjoying reality shows.Originally planned to pass the time by reading, but no one wanted to listen to her sales lines, so Ye Rutang also brought in knitting work, and sat there every day knitting sweaters mechanically with both hands, staring at the flies with blank eyes.
