Chapter 2 Mr. Almost Biography

Do you know who is the most famous person in China? When mentioning this person, everyone knows and is famous everywhere.He has a poor surname and not many first names. He is a surname from every province, county and village.You must have seen him, must have heard others talk about him.The name of Mr. Almost is on everyone's lips every day, because he is the representative of the whole Chinese people. Mr. Almost looks like you and me.He has a pair of eyes, but he can't see very clearly; he has two ears, but he can't hear very clearly; he has a nose and a mouth, but he is not very particular about smell and taste.His brain is not small, but his memory is not very sharp, and his thoughts are not very detailed.

He often said: "As long as everything is about the same, it will be fine. Why be too smart?" When he was young, his mother told him to buy brown sugar, and he bought white sugar back.His mother scolded him, he shook his head and said, "Aren't brown sugar and white sugar about the same?" When he was in school, his master asked him: "Which province is to the west of Zhili Province?" He said it was Shaanxi.The husband said, "Wrong. It is Shanxi, not Shaanxi." He said, "Shanxi is the same as Shanxi, isn't it?" Later he worked as a clerk in a money shop; he could also write and calculate, but he was never precise.The cross is often written as a thousand characters, and the thousand characters are often written as a cross.The shopkeeper got angry and often scolded him.He just smiled apologetically and said: "Thousand characters are only a little more than crosses, isn't it about the same?"

One day, for an important matter, he wanted to take a train to Shanghai.He walked to the train station calmly, two minutes late, and the train had already left.He stared blankly at the soot on the train in the distance, shook his head and said, "I have to leave tomorrow, and today is the same as tomorrow. But the train company is too serious. (OK) Eight o'clock Thirty is the same as eight thirty-two, isn't it the same?" As he spoke, he walked slowly home, wondering why the train refused to wait for him for two minutes. One day, he suddenly fell ill, so he hurriedly asked his family to invite Dr. Wang from Dongjie.The family hurriedly ran, but couldn't find Dr. Wang from East Street for a while, but they invited Dr. Wang, a cattle doctor from West Street.Mr. Almost was sick in bed, knowing that he had found the wrong person; but he was in a hurry, suffering from body pain, anxious, and couldn't wait, thinking to himself: "Fortunately, Dr. Wang is similar to Dr. Wang, let him try." So The cow doctor, Dr. Wang, approached the bed and treated Mr. Qi's disease in the same way as a cow. In less than an hour, Mr. Almost died.

When Mr. Qiaoji was about to die, he said intermittently: "The living and the dead are also close... close... about the same,... as long as everything is... close... close... not much... that's fine,... ...wh...why...do you have to be...too...too serious?" He just gave up his breath after saying this adage. After his death, everyone praised Mr. Qiyi for being able to see through and understand everything; everyone said that he was unwilling to be serious, unwilling to settle accounts, and unwilling to care about things all his life. He was really a virtuous person.So everyone gave him a posthumous title and called him Master Yuantong.

His reputation spread farther and farther, and grew bigger and bigger with time.Countless people have followed his example.So everyone has become a Mr. Almost. ——However, China has since become a country of lazy people.
