A clean and tidy study.
bright and clean.
There is a pink puppy on the gray T-shirt. It is a very ordinary piece of clothing and can be found on the streets.
Khaki knee-length shorts, a bit worn and pale.
The calves are very slender.
The little white shoes are also a little dirty.
With slender arms, they hold up bamboo strips and weave quickly, as if they are playing music. It could be titled as the inheritance of skills by traditional craftsmen.
But the little girl started talking, and her voice was authentic English.
She was explaining English to people and moving around non-stop.
What she said was very simple, and most people who opened TikTok could understand it.
But his full face was never shown.
This caused a sudden surge in likes.
The number of likes for the two Douyin videos actually slowly increased from a few thousand.
The Douyin video of the girl writing in the library is good, but it is not out of the ordinary. It is enough to have more than 8,000 likes.
Liang Jiajia was able to see it because she was browsing the Douyin app near her city.
However, the post about the tutor posted by Liang Jiajia became inexplicably popular because of the contrast between traditional bamboo weaving and pure English speaking, as well as the girl's voice and body shape. The number of likes increased from 10,000 to 20,000 to 130,000.
Because this Douyin video became popular, some people found the Douyin video of the young lady writing in the library, compared her clothes, shoes and hands, and discovered that it was the same person. So this Douyin video also became a little popular, and the number of likes slowly increased to more than 10,000.
They all said that the young lady's handwriting was beautiful, the young lady had a good figure, and the young lady looked up and smiled...
The Douyin video of the tutor girl was even more popular, with all kinds of comments.
Some said it was a staged photo, and immediately someone jumped out and said that they were the disciple of a certain bamboo weaving master. The girl was really doing bamboo weaving, although not very skilled, but at least at the entry level. Judging from the girl's voice and figure, it was already amazing to be able to reach the entry level, and she was very talented. Bamboo weaving skills are divided into basic, entry-level, specialized, master, and above master. Nowadays, there are very few people who can reach the basic level. Just getting started is already very impressive. They also left their contact information in a serious manner, hoping that the girl can join them and contribute to the inheritance of traditional skills.
"The young lady's spoken English is so standard and sounds so nice!"
"Give me a tutor like this, and I guarantee I'll pass the English test. No, I'll give it an excellent grade."
"Please, Miss, please move the camera up a little so I can take a look. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Liang Jiajia didn't expect that the Douyin video she secretly filmed would become so popular. She lay on the sofa, holding her phone and reading the comments one by one, with a big smile on her face and kicking her legs.
But Xiaoqi didn't know any of this. She had just passed the college entrance examination, had never had a mobile phone before, and was in a key high school. How could a senior high school student have time to watch Douyin?
She returned to her aunt's dormitory, washed rice and cooked it first, then prepared to carry the bucket upstairs to get hot water and come down to wash clothes. Because the hospital was on the basement floor and the cold water was scary, it was better to wash clothes with hot water.
"The host has used his bamboo weaving skills while also teaching English, bringing a positive energy of progress and glory to society. I'm rewarded with a silver card of Infinite Strength. The host's current strength is that of a weak, ordinary human. After using this card, your strength will increase by two levels, becoming a strong, ordinary human. This card is permanent. Do you want to use it now?"
Infinite power?
Su Xiaoqi looked at her little arms.
Thinking about the load of winnowing baskets that her father was carrying, she couldn't even lift half of it.
"Can it be used by other people?" she asked.
"Only Platinum Card holders have supplementary cards, and only those with Platinum Cards can designate people around them to use them. Other cards can only be used by the host themselves, or become invalid if left idle. Host, keep working hard." The machine said in a stern voice.
"Use it." Su Xiaoqi sighed.
There is no special feeling.
She looked at the two buckets in the room, one red and one green, and lifted them up.
She went to the water room upstairs and filled the red bucket halfway with water. This was the amount she had filled before, and it kept shaking when she carried it.
But this time, after filling half a bucket, it was surprisingly light to lift.
I continued to fill water, and after filling half a bucket, it still didn't feel heavy.
How strong is the average human being?
She filled the green bucket with water, almost half full, and then lifted it down easily.
Two hands, one on the left and one on the right, a red bucket and a green bucket, but they didn't feel heavy at all, just like the feeling of carrying a schoolbag.
This skill card is so useful. She was about to go downstairs with the water in her hand when she was stopped.
"Hey, you are the niece of nurse Xiao Su, right? My hand is injured and it's inconvenient. Can you help me carry a bucket of water to Ward 109?"
Xiao Qi looked back and saw a middle-aged woman dressed quite fashionably. She was wearing a red skirt and a thick layer of powder on her face, which was a different color from her neck. She had applied bright red lipstick, a bit too much, and some of it got on her front teeth. She was wearing high heels and had a finger pricked. There was a Band-Aid on her left index finger.
She knew this woman. Her mother-in-law was in the hospital. She was a chronic patient and usually no one came to see her and no one hired a caregiver. Her aunt couldn't stand it and would occasionally go to help, so she complained to her several times.
"How unfilial! The old lady's son works on the railway, and her daughter-in-law plays mahjong every day. She only comes to visit occasionally and does nothing. The old lady has sores all over her body from sleeping, but she doesn't even hire a nurse. How can I find the time to help her every day? I can't even finish the cleaning, and the nurse is always shouting for medicine and other things..."
At this moment, Su Xiaoqi looked at the woman in front of him, pointed his finger, and hesitated for a moment.
The system seems to always reward people for doing good things.
But Su Xiaoqi also disliked the person in front of her.
Unfilial.
Besides, there was a Band-Aid on her left hand, and her right hand was fine, so she shouldn't be unable to lift things. Otherwise, if she came over with a bucket, she would have carried it if she hadn't met me. She just looked at me as someone who was easy to bully.
It probably feels natural that the caregiver's niece also has to do the caregiver's work.
Xiaoqi is still quite thin-skinned and has a bit of low self-esteem, so he will just do what he is asked to do.
But after going through a series of things, looking at the more than 7,000 yuan on the screen in front of me, I suddenly felt like money gave me courage.
"Sorry, I'm busy and can't help you." Su Xiaoqi refused.
"Hey, how can you be like this? You have no love for others. What's wrong with helping me? What did your parents teach you? I even sent some fruit to your aunt, but you refused to do any work."
"I don't want to." Su Xiaoqi didn't argue with her. The fruits she gave to her aunt were all rotten, black, and covered with small flies. Her aunt accepted them out of pity for the old lady who was alone, but she still threw them away.
I also complained about this to Xiaoqi.
The other party wanted to say something, but saw that the thin little girl could easily lift two large buckets of hot water in each hand and walked away steadily.
He muttered a few words: "Country people are strong, what's so great about it..."
Xiaoqi went downstairs carrying hot water.
“If I were a boy again, I would make it a habit to say no more often… A teenager needs to be able to stand up straight and refuse to do something that is not worth doing—just because it is not worth doing.”
Thanks again for this article.
It turns out that saying "no" is very refreshing.
If it’s not worth it, you don’t have to do it and there’s no need to feel wronged.
I went downstairs and saw my neighbor Lin Min again.
"You carry the water, let me help you, why are you carrying so much?" Lin Min was shocked to see Xiao Qi like this.
"No, no, I can do it myself." Xiao Qi smiled and shook his head, then picked up two buckets and walked briskly to the sink to wash clothes.
Lin Min: ...
