On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the local custom is to go to my uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings, I don't want to go, because I went as a tool person, of course, because of my mother, I told my wife that I didn't want to go, and my wife said that I could not go, but I still had to go because of my mother's face, so I had to be patient, after all, I had decided to behave better this year, and I couldn't mess up the atmosphere at home in this matter.
Over the years, my wife has become a tool for me to deal with my mother, which makes me feel guilty, so I apologize to my wife here, she can't see it anyway, because she doesn't like to read and doesn't read the posts I write, my posts are for myself.
So yesterday morning at ten o'clock departure, rushed to my uncle's house at noon, I have three uncles, the eldest uncle has long passed away, the second uncle is an ordinary migrant worker, engaged in welding, the son is also a miscellaneous worker, do not like to read, the tutor is also average, the rural environment has been like this since ancient times, parents work for a long time, most of them are far away from home, how can children have the ability to manage it, so study is good or bad, but secondly, filial piety to parents is the most important thing for rural people.
Raising children to prevent old age is one out, followed by the succession of the family, I think about these two plays, of course, this is not comprehensive, I will make up for it when I think of it later. I think of writing as my social experiment, so I can't be sloppy, and I wish I could study these people in detail, so that's why I came to my uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings.
My third uncle is an "alcoholic migrant worker", he is a big car driver, illiterate, the second uncle seems to be literate, the third uncle's interesting story is that he drives without looking at the road signs, drives indiscriminately, so he can't make any money, the only idea is to "let the children get the iron rice bowl", their emphasis on the iron rice bowl highlights the general thinking of contemporary rural groups, and my wife and I have also discussed similar things.
Because his wife teaches in the countryside, she profoundly said that the biggest opinion of the parents of rural children on teachers is "watching other people's weekends, and if you don't go to work during the New Year, you will still get a salary!" How good an iron rice bowl is! Something similar. Secondly, their feelings for teachers are very complicated, basically "jealousy, disgust, fear, and contempt", these psychology seems to be contradictory when taken out alone, but when combined in a person's emotional world, it is not contradictory, because people are too complicated. Like whether you're right with your boss or not"Afraid"What about him and at the same time "looking down" on him and wanting to "taunt" him?
The second uncle's son is a vagrant, nothing serious to do, it seems to be driving for the boss recently, the third uncle's daughter has just divorced, I will study this divorce in detail, it is very interesting, really interesting, the third uncle's son is the first to study in a junior college, and then become a soldier, I briefly thought about it, the third uncle should be worried about the tuition fee, so let his son go to the army, you can take the non-commissioned officer and reduce the tuition at the same time. The third uncle's son naturally couldn't pass the exam, which is also reasonable, because after all, it is difficult, he recently prepared for the exam for the college entrance examination, and studied at home, I didn't ask him about his study.
After the New Year's greetings are also a form of walking, kowtow to a bunch of people I don't know, no one will consider my self-esteem, I naturally won't really kowtow, on the first day of the new year, I kowtow to my parents but hard, one to eat and drink for nothing, two to take care of the children and have to rely on them to take care of, three to the wife and them awkward is I to make amends. I'm not going to be a jobless vagrant this year, so I'm still going to be careful, find a job, and go home often.
Greeting me with the New Year are two so-called elder brothers, in fact, I am not familiar with them, they are my aunt's son, one is an English teacher in a rural middle school, full of anger and hypocrisy, no wonder the basic education in the countryside is not good, the quality of teachers is really not good, full of running trains. The second one is a car repairer, and it seems that he has opened a shop or something, so I didn't ask much.
At the lunch table, I didn't dare to eat, after all, most of the dishes in the countryside are cooked food, that is, ham sausages, fried fish or something, I am afraid of eating stomach pain, because once I ate it before, I was uncomfortable for an afternoon, this time I didn't eat a bite, they drank and bragged, I just looked at it casually, ate some peanuts, this should be no problem.
Most of the topics at the dinner table are to praise each other, our rural people, in the case of lack of culture, can do each other "know the courtesy", and can achieve the "unity of knowledge and action" I am very surprised, when you brag at the dinner table, everyone will compliment, no one will debunk, so you can rest assured to brag, what you say is "fart talk", so this is very inferior socialization, there is no meaning. I almost burst out laughing.
That's probably it, don't write it, I'm tired.
