Ouyang Ming was a little confused, because he didn't expect that he just told his father roughly what happened in school tonight, but Ou Jianren suddenly became so emotional, and even spoke with disdain towards his head teacher, Mr. Zhou.
What's going on? Did I say something that hit a nerve?
Ouyang Ming was a little puzzled, but he understood his father's temperament very well. Perhaps it was because Teacher Zhou had "offended" Ou Jianren in some way before, which made Ou Jianren so furious now.
As expected, before Ouyang Ming could even open his mouth to ask, Ou Jianren couldn't help himself and started to attack Ouyang Ming, "Your class teacher has no real ability. He does all these fancy things every day!"
"Teaching is not a good job, but you only know how to do these nonsense. What's the saying 'Studying is not the only way, but studying can give you an extra choice in life'? Bah!"
"According to what he said, those who didn't finish junior high school or high school can't survive?! Then how come I, who graduated from high school, am still doing well?! This so-called famous class teacher is totally unworthy of the reputation, rubbish! This *&...%¥¥#..., I just..."
Ouyang Ming was a little confused when he saw Ou Jianren angrily refuting what Teacher Zhou and Senior Xu Jiahao said that night.
Uh...Dad, although I know you are very angry, and I know you think what our teachers and seniors said is wrong, but the reason you are angry seems to be on a different channel from what our teachers and seniors said?
Our class teacher and senior Xu Jiahao didn't say that people who haven't finished junior high school or high school can't survive! They just said... forget it. I guess my dad won't listen no matter how I explain it.
Ou Jianren is like those uncultured people who have been active on the Internet. When he sees some remarks that do not conform to his values, he begins to use filthy words unscrupulously, criticizing and insulting the parties involved, as if only in this way can he feel that he is right and the other party is wrong.
Ouyang Ming once heard or read a sentence somewhere, "It seems that many people actually have abnormal intelligence, but can take care of themselves, so they are always treated as normal people and even have children, so there are more and more fools."
When Ouyang Ming first saw this sentence, he just thought it was a little funny. But now when Ouyang Ming saw his father Ou Jianren's performance, he began to doubt whether this sentence was not just a joke, but perhaps it was indeed true?
Perhaps Ou Jianren's words were too harsh. Before Ou Yangming could speak, his silent mother could not help but persuade her husband, "The child is here, stop talking nonsense! Isn't the teacher doing this for the good of the child?"
It was this sentence that completely detonated Ou Jianren's firecracker, which had not yet been fully lit.
"I'm talking nonsense?! How the hell am I talking nonsense! You're a woman with long hair and little knowledge, what do you know!"
Ou Jianren's eyes started to turn red with anger, and he shouted excitedly, "What does he know? How old is Zhou Yu? He's only in his 20s! I've eaten more salt than he has eaten rice, so I don't know more than him?!"
Ou Jianren took a deep breath and continued, "Our house, living expenses, tuition, and other miscellaneous expenses, aren't all these money earned by me?! If what Zhou Yu said is true, what is my situation now?!"
After saying that, Ou Jianren couldn't wait to denounce Zhou Yu again, as if only in this way could he demonstrate Ou Jianren's strength and that Zhou Yu did not live up to his reputation.
Looking at Ou Jianren's current appearance, Ouyang Ming wanted to laugh.
If he wasn't worried about Ou Jianren losing control of his emotions or making Ou Jianren lose face, Ouyang Ming even wanted to directly remind Ou Jianren that our house was borrowed by my mother from my aunt, my uncle, and my grandparents when she returned to her hometown!
If we rely on you to earn money to buy a house, our family of three will probably have to move to live under a bridge in the west of the city.
Besides, the money in the family is not earned by you alone, so the money earned by my mother is not money? Even so, our family's situation, in the whole Ruxu, can only be said to be barely enough to maintain the poverty line, and there is still a long way to go before we can become a well-off family.
Ouyang Ming's eyes were empty at this moment, and his mind was full of random thoughts. Ou Jianren's words of refuting Teacher Zhou went in one ear and out the other.
After severely refuting Zhou Yu, Ou Jianren felt much more comfortable when he saw that his family members did not refute him. He felt that his family members could still understand him.
As a result, Ouyang Ming's face, which had turned red due to excitement, returned to its normal color after a while, and even the tone of his voice became much calmer.
"This is the case in our country! Whether it's the common people or the experts, they are all like a makeshift team, not rigorous at all! Look at America on the other side of the ocean! Look at how they do it, and then compare it with ours!"
Ou Jianren showed off his little 'knowledge' in front of his wife and children, "Just like what your teacher Zhou said this time, why would I oppose what he said? The fundamental reason is that he is simply talking nonsense!"
"Do you know the world's richest man, Bill Gates? I think you all know this name, right? Why am I mentioning him here now? Because he graduated from high school! What's the name of the university he was admitted to? Ha... Harvard, yes, Harvard!"
"Oh my god, Harvard is one of the best universities in the world! It's much better than Kyoto University and Mizuki University here! But look at Bill Gates! After being admitted to Harvard, he didn't even go to school!"
"Why? Because people in America think that studying in college is just so-so. Instead of spending time to finish college, they might as well start their own business! So this is why America is number one in the world! They dare to think and act, unlike us who are complacent!"
"I've told you before that we're no good here, whether it's the people or anything else! We're nowhere near as good as America, and you didn't believe it?! Do you believe it now?"
Ou Jianren seemed very happy when he mentioned anything related to America. Every time he talked about America with others, he seemed to have a very broad knowledge, as if he was a native of the other side of the ocean.
Ou Jianren likes to read story clubs and Reader's Digest, but compared to the latter, he still thinks the former is more story-like and interesting, and he feels that story clubs are more enjoyable to read.
However, sometimes in order to have something to talk about at the dinner table, Ou Jianren still has the patience to read some of the content in the reader.
Although he couldn't understand a lot of the readers, he still felt unsatisfied after reading some of the articles and was very excited.
This includes many articles about America.
Ou Jianren once came across an article in Reader's Digest by chance that quite interested him.
The content of the article is about the life of Bill Gates that Ou Jianren mentioned tonight.
Ou Jianren still remembers the general content of the article. It said that after Bill Gates was admitted to Harvard University, he stayed on campus for a while and felt that he could not learn any really useful knowledge in school.
So instead of wasting time in school, you might as well use that time on more useful things!
So Bill Gates resolutely dropped out of school, and then founded Microsoft, ushering in a glorious and great era and adding a business empire to the world.
What a wonderful country!
After reading it, Ou Jianren was so excited that he almost peed himself.
He had never thought that someone who had only graduated from high school and had not attended college could actually create such a huge business empire. What a great country this is!
Therefore, after this day, Ou Jianren became more interested in articles about America. He read but was not limited to "Sparrow", "Summer Camp" and other articles that are considered classics by people today.
It’s so great, so great!
There is such a country that, for the sake of a tiny creature, can let the president give an order to cut off the power in the entire country, just to save the helpless and restless little sparrow on the electric pole.
There is such a country whose children are so creative!
Looking back at us...Thinking of this, Ou Jianren couldn't help but sneer. There is no comparison, no comparison at all!
America is still the best!
Such a humane country where everyone has dreams and opportunities, this is simply the ideal country in my mind!
In a country like this, the air and water must be sweet! (The water in America is really sweet, because the water pipes are made of lead...)
When I thought about how Bill Gates was able to create such a huge business empire after graduating from high school, while I also graduated from high school but had to waste half my life and now am just a salesperson in a small company, I suddenly felt very bad.
Damn, it would be great if I were an American too!
I heard that you can buy a big house for just one dollar there, and you can buy a whole bucket of Kaifeng vegetables, which are extremely expensive in Ruxu, for one dollar. Moreover, everyone is very friendly and polite, not to mention the administration is very efficient.
So, after that, Ou Jianren became an absolute fan of America. Whenever he chatted with colleagues or neighbors and friends, every word he wrote was full of praise for America.
But what Ou Jianren didn't know was that the Bill Gates he admired would never tell him that Bill Gates' father was a famous lawyer and philanthropist, and his mother was a successful business woman who served as a member of the board of directors of the University of Washington.
Bill Gates' parents had an important influence on his growth and success. They not only provided him with a good educational environment, but also gave him a lot of support in the early stages of his entrepreneurship. Even Bill Gates' first pot of gold was due to the favorable conditions created for him by his parents.
The authors of articles like "Sparrow" and "Summer Camp" written in Reader's Digest would not tell Ou Jianren that the articles they wrote were just routine tasks they did for money. They themselves had never set foot in that country and had never met or known anyone or anything in that country.
As for the content in the article...it's almost like the year-end bonus drawn by the boss - pure fabrication.
However, in the past when information was not as developed as it is today, many people believed in these articles. And in the early days of the reform and opening up in the last century, such articles had a wider audience, and there was even a trend of going abroad.
However, although Ou Jianren's words showed more disdain for Zhou Yu, he self-righteously felt that Zhou Yu's level was not good enough, and the reason why he could achieve those results must be due to institutional problems, and the school helped to cheat behind the scenes.
But even though he had such a deep prejudice against Zhou Yu and Ruxu No. 2 Middle School, Ou Jianren never thought of letting his son Ouyang Ming leave Zhou Yu's class right now.
There was no other reason, because there was a student named Xu Li in Zhou Yu’s class. No, to be precise, it was because of Xu Li’s father, Xu Jiacheng.
Ou Jianren had seen how wealthy Xu Jiacheng was. This was the first rich man Ou Jianren had ever met, and he was so close to him!
Ou Jianren really wanted to hug Xu Jiacheng's thick thigh. With Xu Jiacheng's thick thigh, Ou Jianren felt that after hugging him, he would not have to worry about anything for the rest of his life!
For the sake of Xu Li's father Xu Jiacheng, even if Ou Jianren was unhappy with Zhou Yu and thought Zhou Yu was incompetent, Ou Jianren had to let his son stay in Zhou Yu's class.
At the very least, he had to get familiar with Xu Jiacheng first, and then get some benefits from Xu Jiacheng.
After he said so much, although his son and wife did not show any opposition, they also did not show any admiration for him. This made Ou Jianren smack his lips in boredom.
Tsk... women and children just have so little experience. If it were my friends, after hearing what I said... no, even after hearing me start talking about it, they would definitely be eager to start discussing it with me right on the spot. But now, it's actually a lukewarm discussion!
Feeling somewhat bored, Ou Jianren waved his hand and told Ou Yangming to go back to the house. "Remember what I said, don't just think about reading that stupid book of yours! When you have time, play with Xu Li more. When you have the chance, invite him to our house, okay?"
"There is only about half a year left until the college entrance examination. If we don't quickly establish a good relationship with them, how will we find opportunities to continue to contact them when the college entrance examination comes?!"
"Did you hear me clearly?"

Finally, I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival!
