Chapter 191 Expectation

"Chala," Feng Yiping put a handful of dried long bamboo chopsticks in a plastic box. Mei Jianzhong next to him was more skillful than his grandson. He grabbed and combined them, and he put a large handful of chopsticks neatly in the plastic box.

Now several uncles have unanimously agreed that he still farms, and they have only planted two pieces of land with enough food for several families. How can they let the old father still farm?

But for Mei Jianzhong, he really couldn't let go of the things in the fields, so he asked him to take care of a small vegetable garden, which was actually just a pastime. He had been doing these light and easy things in the noodle factory for other times.

"I won't go. I'm old and I'm too lazy to run away. Besides, I think the United States is not much better than China," the two of them whispered while there was no noise.

This old man is definitely the kind of person who is good in his country. Of course, the richness behind the seemingly simple and ordinary towns in the United States is indeed difficult to see if people of his age do not go deeper, but only look at it briefly.

As for the high welfare represented by the United States that many people yearn for, people like him will never think about it. They have their own hands and feet, so why should they rely on the government?

As for the good education there, it’s nothing. What he often says is that even a broken kiln can burn good tiles.

"Yes, there is no better family anywhere," Feng Yiping could only follow him, "It's just grandfather, you don't want to meet your great-granddaughter and great-grandson?" He looked around and whispered.

"Can you see a great-grandson?" Mei Jianzhong immediately raised his eyebrows.

"You must see you, do you know?" Feng Yiping approached his grandfather. "He asked me several times, 'Where is that white-eyed grandfather?"

"Haha, do you really remember me?" Mei Jianzhong felt very relieved, "Then I'll take a look at it."

"You are still good at Yiping, you are so happy," the second aunt walked over with a smile, "It's all up, the meal is ready, go and have a meal,"

She looked at Feng Yiping's holding chopsticks and said, "Will we sell the noodles with these chopsticks higher?"

"Auntie, just don't raise the price if you sell it to the noodle shop."

"No one can offend anyone," the second aunt smiled.

Noodle shops have always been big customers in the factory.

"Boss Feng, can you do these things?" My uncle and his second uncle walked out of the workshop together, and they were still wearing single-piece work clothes.

Now, they have not had any off-production, or the entire noodle factory has no off-production management staff. The bosses have been doing the same things as the more than a dozen workers they hired.

But now the business has been very prosperous, and it is not as windy as before. Not only does the complexion have improved, but the complexion has also improved a lot.

"Although I can't pick my shoulders, how could I not be able to do what I have on my hands?" Feng Yiping smiled.

It’s not that he can’t carry it on his shoulders, but he is really far behind those at home who can carry hundreds of pounds of loads and walk as fast as he can.

"I'm just staying in the office now, so I'm doing less of these things," my second uncle asked him with a smile.

"Where, at home, I not only clean up my chopsticks, but also wash dishes frequently,"

"Really?" the aunt came out with a basin of water. "Then your uncle really should study hard with you. He has never touched the edge of the stove throughout the year."

"Don't listen to Yiping's nonsense. His families have already equipped with a dishwasher, so he has to do it?" said my uncle hurriedly, "Besides, this must be counted by Jingping."

"Dad, Yiping, wash it quickly," the aunt handed them the basin and towel, and still complained to her husband. "Anyway, I think Yiping is more considerate than you,"

“That was learned from us too,”

Feng Yiping suddenly felt that the honest and loyal uncle had changed now and his skin became thicker. Of course, it can also be said that because life is getting better and better, people have become cheerful and funny.

…………

Feng Yiping rarely eats here. In his uncle's words, "I don't eat a meal a year on average," and the food is naturally very rich.

Feng Yiping's bowl was filled with dishes they picked up, and he couldn't even insert chopsticks.

"Yiping, everyone is living better and better now. Although we don't say anything polite to you, we all know that these good days are all brought by you," said my third uncle, who also rushed back for lunch and brought a basket of eels that he had fished out of the river in the morning.

"Uncle, it's really unnecessary to say these words. Isn't it all right for me to do these?"

"One thing we are worried about now is the education of your cousins. Now it seems that none of them has the ability to study. Your uncle said that next year, Rongrong probably has the hope of getting into college, but the ones who are sure are ordinary. Chengcheng of my second uncle's family and Yangyang of my family are not even sure about an ordinary university now."

"I won't say that the three of them are the best. If you can pass the exam, you can't pass the exam. At most, let them repeat the exam again. However, Ruirui from my uncle's family, Qingqing from my second uncle's family, Yunyun and Dongdong, will also go to high school one after another in the past two years. We have no confidence in them. Do you have the right idea? Why don't you give us any advice?"

"What other ideas do you need?" Mei Jianzhong said, "Just study hard,"

"They are getting better and better in food and clothing. The pocket money is many times higher than the tuition fee, but their grades are worse than the other. I think they are not good at studying, and the root cause is you parents,"

My grandfather’s words are actually not without reason. He is rich and capable, and his uncle and aunt have indeed spoiled his cousin, especially the young people around them, so that they have no intention of working hard.

"Dad, you said that," the uncles naturally couldn't refute what grandfather said, and what grandfather said did make some sense. They really couldn't demand stricter on these small ones. "We must be stricter on them,"

"But their talent is really worse than that of the first batch of 1. In China, they don't say that they can get into the first batch of prestigious universities in the province. Even if they perform very well, they will probably only go to an ordinary second-tier or even third-tier university," said the third uncle.

"Now the family's financial conditions are getting better. We are like allowing them to receive a good education. We all heard that the education in the United States is good, and it is easy to go to college there. I think you can help me ask if you can let these young people go to the United States to study in high school?"

This seems to be the common meaning of several uncles.

"Uncle, aunt, I want to say that it is easy to go to a prestigious university in the United States, but it is definitely a misunderstanding. In any country, it is not easy to go to a prestigious university without studying,"

"I agree with letting my cousin and his cousin study abroad," he said.

The uncles and aunts were immediately delighted.

"But I still hope that when they are old, they will arrange to go abroad when they are already growing up. To be honest, their age is the time of rebellion in adolescence. I really can't manage them well and I can't bear that responsibility,"

"We are so kind to say, with the foundation laid by you, my cousin and his cousin will not be worse than ordinary people after finishing high school and not going to college," he said.

"But I think there are some truths they still need to understand, mainly the principles of being a human being, such as being down-to-earth, being humble, being filial to parents, being friendly to brothers and sisters..., and not bullying others, but if you are bullied, you must know how to resist..., how to know money, how to treat money...,"

Feng Yiping talked endlessly for three or four minutes, "I think for them, these basic things are the most important,"

"If you can understand these, and with the foundation you laid, even if they only go to college in the future, there is no need to worry, because they will understand the importance of learning and understand the old saying that living and learning is not a joke, and they will do this. Then, what do you have to worry about their future achievements?"

"Those who turned out to be better than them may not necessarily have a great future,"

"And the basics of these, the teachers in the school will not be as good as you teach, so I still have the same attitude. Before I got into college, I didn't agree with them going abroad. Now I'm in high school, and I don't have to go to the province. The town is not bad. You, don't just buy them this and that. Give them pocket money today and then tomorrow. Pay more attention to them and teach them more about being a human being."

This can also be said that Feng Yiping’s expectations and talents for his cousins ​​and his children are indeed unable to force them, but as long as they have a positive outlook on their own, they may not become particularly outstanding people, but at least, they cannot become prodigals or bad guys.

"Think about what you said in Yiping makes sense," my uncle nodded. "There are also people who have been admitted to college nearby. I have come into contact with a few, and I feel that there are two. Even if I go to a good university, I am really not very sensible. I agree with what you said."

"We really don't want them to take a prestigious university to give us a glory, including asking you to arrange it to the United States. We really just want them to learn more," he said.

The third uncle looked at the second uncle. Although he was a little disappointed, he still expressed his opinion, "Then according to what you said, let's wait until they get into college,"

They certainly cannot let him change his mind if his nephew has determined it. (To be continued.)
