"That's right." Wang Ke followed suit, "Brother said that having high expectations for children is actually stressful for them, and it's not good for yourself either."
"If I find that my child hasn't done well, I will also feel anxious and wonder why my child hasn't done well. This is not acceptable."
"What people around me will say will affect my mentality."
"If you don't ask too much of Ping An, every time you see them making progress, you'll be surprised. It's a big surprise."
Is that so? Ye Jiang was suspicious for a moment, then thought about it and felt that this was not wrong, "But I always feel it's a bit strange."
After thinking about it, he immediately knew what was wrong, "Yes, what if Ping An becomes mediocre?"
"It's okay. My brother said that as long as the child is healthy and hasn't done anything illegal, he will be just an ordinary person at best."
“How many people can stand out? Most people are just ordinary people.”
“Accept your ordinariness.”
"And my brother also said that if you invest too much energy and effort, and finally find that no matter how hard you try, you can only become an ordinary person, then you will collapse."
“If you don’t work hard, you’re still an ordinary person. Can you accept it easily?” Wang Ke made another comparison.
Well, Ye Jiang had to admit that what Wang Ke said was really right, "I suddenly feel that my brother is really amazing."
"But why are they so critical of you?" Ye Jiang remembered that Zhao Lei would buy tutoring materials for Wang Ke and give him questions, and he attached great importance to his studies.
"It's simple. If I don't work hard, my children in the future will have to work as hard as we did before. If we work hard now, our children won't have to work as hard when they grow up."
"I can be thick-skinned and rely on my brother-in-law for my living in the future, but can my child be like me and need my sister and others to take care of him?" Wang Ke also hopes that he can be like Zhao Lei and become a support for his child.
"Oh, I see." Ye Jiang said, and understood.
"Remember when we joined the army that summer, those guys were better than us?"
"Some of them are amazing, some are just average, but they have good elders, so they have it much easier than us."
"We have to be more capable and better than them so that we can stand out."
"If we work harder now, our children will have an easier time in the future and have more choices." Wang Ke glanced at the confused Ye Jiang.
This should be what my brother calls happiness. After my father passed away, everything depends on the three of them to work hard and create a bright future.
Compared with those of the second and third generations, Ye Jiang is slightly inferior, but he is still better than many people.
While eating barbecue, Ye Jiang kept thinking about what Wang Ke said. These words sounded simple and not too difficult, but he felt that Wang Ke was growing very fast.
Wang Juan found that Ye Jiang was not in a good state today. He looked very happy when he left the examination room. He should have done well in the college entrance examination.
He whispered to Wang Ke, who was eating barbecue with big mouthfuls, and glanced at his friend who was in deep thought, "He is thinking about something. The boy has grown up."
When I hear something now, I will think about it carefully. It shows that my child has grown up and no longer thinks that he is right no matter what others say.
Wang Juan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You sound like an elder. You are even younger than him by a few years."
