Chapter 59 Education
Chekhov wrote in the novel: "Education is not about not spilling soup when eating, but not looking at others when they spill soup." A little embarrassment, this is our minimum upbringing, it is a must have a little kindness.

I don’t know what everyone’s views on education are?

I once had such a friend, everyone felt that he disrespected people a lot of the time, but he himself told me not to tell him what he didn’t like to hear when he knew his situation, but to say something happy.

My friend, let’s call it Little S for the time being, I don’t want to choose a name, after all, I’m useless to choose a name, and it’s not good for someone to take a seat when I choose a name.

Xiao S was originally an office worker and had done many jobs in various industries.Everyone praised Xiao S as a very capable person.

How can I say this?In fact, it does not mean how strong Xiao S is at work or how well the business develops, but that this little S can do many things.

Little S is a tool fanatic, especially for electric tools.

The understanding of these tools originated from Xiao S's earliest experience in a furniture factory.

Little S has no interest in reading, and she stopped studying in junior high school, but at that time there was no way to find any serious job, minors, who would dare to want it?Just at that time, a relative opened a furniture factory and went to help.

But what can little S do at such a young age?At the very beginning, I had to ask Xiao S to help the masters get the cut wooden squares.

But Xiao S stayed for a few days, and was not interested in making furniture, but was very interested in the tools for cutting wooden squares.

Although Xiao S left the furniture factory later, he never forgot about these tools.

Later, no matter what work Xiao S did, he never forgot about tools.

This goes back to why everyone says that Xiao S is very capable.

Little S is interested in tools, but not in collecting them, but in using them.I always like to fix some gadgets in the household tools.

Gradually, these small gadgets could no longer satisfy Little S, and Little S started to make big gadgets.

Later, most of the things in this little S's house were made by him by hand.

For example, the wallpaper on the wall is pasted by myself; the aluminum alloy doors and windows are installed by myself; the gas water heater is installed by myself; the radiator is installed by myself;

Not to mention those electric appliances like range hoods.

The most exaggerated is the aluminum alloy anti-theft guardrail on the balcony.The guardrail was indeed made to order, but he installed it himself.Later, Xiao S made a rain cover with tarpaulin or something on the guardrail, arranged a row of flower pots, and planted a bunch of vine roses.

That’s not all, even the headlights at home were made by Xiao S who went outside to buy glass, LED lights, etc., and installed a remote control, so he can turn on and off the lights while sitting on the bed.

I bought a projector, but the bracket that came with it was of poor quality, so Xiao S dismantled the bracket and made one myself.

Everyone sees all these aspects of life, so everyone says that Xiao S is very capable.

But Xiao S, there is a little problem, that is, a little arrogant.

This arrogance is still within the range that everyone can accept. In fact, to put it bluntly, he likes to show everyone the gadgets he makes himself.

But let’s take a look at this, it’s nothing, anyway, just take it as an appreciation, these objects are still very well made, the workmanship is fine, and they are indeed very practical.

But when Xiao S is seen by others, he always has a bad habit, that is, he likes to praise himself.

How can a normal person praise himself?For example, I have seen some people who admire themselves in the mirror when they get up, and then praise themselves for being handsome; others like to compare themselves with others, and then let everyone praise them for being more powerful.

But little S is different from ordinary people. Little S likes to praise himself and step on others.

For example, Xiao S used to work as a security guard in a supermarket. This job is considered easy. There is nothing to do, just stand at the door.There is a cashier supervisor in the supermarket, we all call her Sister Piao.Sister Piao is a simple person with a gentle personality, and she has never seen her blush with anyone.

But sister Piao has one thing. Sister Piao cares about her son very much.Maybe this has something to do with Sister Piao's early widowhood, and she took her children as her only support.However, sister Piao's son is not very capable, nor is he very competitive. He is ordinary, nothing special, and his life is passable.

Xiao S is a few years younger than Sister Piao's son, and usually calls Sister Piao's son Brother, and the two get along just fine.

But after one incident happened, Sister Piao stopped letting Xiao S have any contact with her son, and even Sister Piao herself stopped seeing S.

Xiao S and Sister Piao have a good relationship, and Sister Piao is basically Xiao S's godmother, so Xiao S sometimes goes to Sister Piao's house to help with work.

One day, this little S went to sister Piao's house to shelter in the rain.

This is also due to the fact that Sister Piao saw that the rain cover made by Xiao S after she finished installing the guardrail last time was very delicate, so she also wanted to ask Xiao S to help install it, and Xiao S agreed.

After Xiao S went to Sister Piao's house to install a rain cover, she started to show off and praise herself as usual.

About the content, I can’t remember clearly, what Sister Piao told me, that is, godmother, how do you think my rain cover is safe?Ok?This board is straight and flat, right?Look at me tied up, okay?How about my hands-on ability, brother?
Of course, Miss Piao said, hey, of course you're better, you're great, you're so good, just follow Xiao S's compliments, and you can't praise it enough.

Then this little S drifted away, and started to step on someone to withdraw his money.Then Xiao S started to talk, and because of the next words, Miss Piao broke up with Xiao S.Little S said, look at my brother's crippled appearance, his hands-on ability, he can't stir-fry well, look at the mapo tofu last time, put the cooking bag in the pot and it's nothing. Yes, let alone the roof, the leaks in this house can only stare blankly, this kind of person is not suitable for life.You see, when my godfather was young, how could he be such a wimp when he was working?

Following this little S's words, I can imagine Miss Piao's face, this must be getting worse and worse, not to mention echoing and praising him, she almost didn't slap him out.

But this little S hasn't noticed it yet, and then said, hey, godmother?Where is my brother?Did you pick up your daughter again this time?In fact, you should talk to my brother, this useless personality, don't affect my daughter, I think my daughter is a bit like my brother now, submissive, and she will be incompetent in the future.Godmother, you will suffer too.

Now sister Piao exploded immediately. She wanted to slander her son and her granddaughter when she installed Yuzhe. She would install something, so it was fine, and she went to other people's homes to step on others and praise herself. This is not educated enough. of.

Sister Piao directly took the chair, went up and smashed the rain cover that Xiao S had just installed, and then slapped Xiao S across the face, driving Xiao S out.

Since then, Miss Piao has never been in contact with Xiao S again, and she has not allowed her son to associate with Xiao S. When she saw her in the supermarket, she pretended not to see her and walked around.

Of course everyone was curious, so they asked Xiao S, but Xiao S didn't know what was going on, so everyone asked Sister Piao, and Sister Piao said, this person has no basic education, is arrogant and arrogant, and doesn't want to see him.

In fact, when it comes to little S's arrogance, disrespect, and lack of education, everyone knows that this little S likes to praise himself when he has nothing to do, and this is not the first time that he steps on others after boasting. Did not say anything.What's more, this little S, besides this problem, has nothing else, and he is quite enthusiastic, so everyone didn't exclude him.

Everyone didn't find it strange that Sister Piao said that about Xiao S, because it was indeed a shortcoming of Xiao S, but because of this, Sister Piao and Xiao S broke off contact, and everyone felt very strange.

But everyone saw that Sister Piao didn't want to talk, so everyone didn't want to ask, so that's it, it's okay.

Later, Xiao S's mother became paralyzed, and in bed, Xiao S quit her job, took care of the elderly at home, and lost contact with everyone.

I just met Little S at this time.

Little S, at the very beginning, gave me the feeling that this person is very righteous, very enthusiastic, very humorous, and really capable.

There is nothing else, because I am not a person who likes to communicate too closely with people, because we only met once, and we are not so close that we can talk about everything.

Later, I didn't want to deal with Xiao S at all, and I also realized that what Sister Piao said, she didn't have basic education.

Once I went to Xiao S's house to get something by chance, so I sat down at Xiao S's house and drank a cup of tea.

During the half-hour tea exchange, Xiao S interrupted me eight times.

But I know that with a paralyzed elderly at home, there are many things to do, so these interruptions do not offend me.

It's just these interruptions that let me see clearly what Sister Piao said, that I don't have basic education.

Little S's mother and little S's father were married twice, and now this father is a stepfather, but I can see that this stepfather is very good to little S's mother.

Xiao S's stepfather is older, he is deaf, and his eyes are not very good.

Because Xiao S's mother was paralyzed in bed, Xiao S was already in charge of the big and small affairs of the family, so Xiao S's stepfather was in charge of the purchase work outside, and the two of them worked together, and they lived a good life.

But I found that Xiao S disrespected this stepfather very much.

I learned from my conversation with S that this stepfather married his mother when he was in elementary school, and he has been very kind to himself for so many years.This stepfather has his own son, but he always treats Xiao S and his son equally, and often prefers Xiao S.Without explaining to the outside world, I really think that this is not the stepfather, but the biological father.

Even in the face of this kind of father, Xiao S also yelled and yelled.Little S attributed the yelling to the fact that his father was hard of hearing and couldn't hear clearly when he was quiet.I don't believe it.

A father, whether he is a stepfather or a biological father, should have basic respect as a child.

My father is deaf, so I don't need to call my father a wimp, it's useless, right?There is no need to say that the stepfather's son is not filial and does not take care of the elderly when he is taking care of his mother, right?As far as I know, the stepfather's son has his own mother, who is also old, and has a wife and children. The stepfather is willing to live with Xiao S, and it's not that the stepfather's son is unfilial.

I drank tea at Xiao S's house. I drank very uncomfortable, and I could even say that I was fidgeting. Every time I suppressed my desire to correct Xiao S, I took a sip of tea.

I watched an old man who ran away for a day, bought all the things he wanted to buy, and then came back to be yelled at by his son who should be filial to him, and was beaten and scolded by his daughter-in-law.

I deeply pity this old man.

I heard that the old man didn't respond, just agreed, didn't scold back, didn't say anything else, and went to work.

When Xiao S sat down here, I started chatting with him, and I told him tactfully, I think you should respect your father more, and stop shouting.

I didn't expect that Little S was like a dynamite keg that had been ignited. He raised his volume all of a sudden, frowned, and shouted at me loudly, "It's enough for me to be nice to them, what else do you want from me?"I don’t have a wife or children at my age, and I do housework every day and my back hurts. You still ask me to have a good attitude?I'm going crazy every day when I'm locked up at home, how can I have a good attitude.

I looked at the man in front of me, I didn't say anything more, I just replied lightly, I said, taking care of your parents is an obligation, not a job, respecting your parents is a must, different from respecting customers, respecting your parents is also good for your parents an important indicator of .You have back pain while doing housework, and your parents did the same when you were a child. What can you complain about?What more do you want from a father who has done the best he can?A father who can raise you to such an age and treat your mother well is no longer a coward. Not everyone in the world can achieve wealth and family harmony!
After I finished speaking, I didn't intend to drink any more tea. I looked at this man, and I felt disgusted. I really don't think how this kind of man who treats his parents like this would treat his friends.I don't even know how much love such a person received when they were young, so that they develop this kind of personality of praising themselves and trampling on others.

During the half hour at his house, I saw that his mother also disrespected his father very much. I wondered, did the child learn to yell at his father because he saw his mother disrespecting his father?

When I look at this family, I don't feel sorry for the old man lying on the bed, nor do I feel sorry for the 40-year-old little S who has no wife, child and no job. The only thing I feel sorry for is little S, his stepfather.

Everyone says it's hard to be a stepmother, so why not a stepfather?From the mouth of S since I was a child, I know that this stepfather has already done the best in the field he can do, but he still gets this kind of treatment.Treating my own son is not as good as treating this son brought by others. In this way, I will not get the treatment I deserve. Should I say that this stepfather is difficult to be, or should I say that the mother of this child did not give the child the education he should have?
