Chapter 123: The War at My Aunt's House

At the end of dinner, Jia Youwei moved from the dining room to the large living room. He knew he couldn't go back tonight. Jia Qianqian was taken out by Jia Youbin to play.

By the time the big urchin and the little urchin returned, it was already late in the night. It was inevitable that the father and daughter would stay here overnight.

Aunt's place is big and there are many rooms. Let the maids here pack up the two guest rooms and come out, without the slightest difficulty and pressure.

While Jia Youwei was leaning his back on the couch, the war at his aunt's house was also transferred from the dinner table to here. Not only are the adults fighting openly and secretly, but their children have also become their tools for petting. Not only that, but the children are also fighting for a brighter future and future within the family.

Jia Youwei glanced at the aunt next to him, and then looked at the children of her family who were preparing. I can't see the innocent and lively side of my daughter Jia Qianqian from their faces.

Jia Youwei personally felt not only the pressure from each of them, but also their respective parents. No one wants to be regarded by Jia Ziyu as a fool who can't do anything and can't even educate his children.

If you don't do as well as others, no one in the family will treat you as a thing, and even judge that you don't have any cultivation value early.

If you give up, then it means that you have no place in the family. Having you is like having a pet, such as a cat, a dog, a bird, etc.

For this reason, Jia Youwei can fully understand the state of mind of the parties. The poor mistakenly think that the life of the rich is carefree, buy and buy today, buy and buy tomorrow, and buy and buy the day after tomorrow.

In fact, the world thinks that the life of a rich man is either an Internet celebrity every three or five days, or a tender model every three or five days. Otherwise, you have to take care of a beautiful female college student.

Of course, this does not rule out that a small number of rich people are living like that. However, the lives of most rich people are certainly not such drunken fans.

They are busy all day, and they don't feel too much time, wishing that a day is not twenty-four, but forty-eight hours.

Many of them are out-and-out model workers. They work about sixteen hours a day, almost all year round. More than 300 of the 365 days a year will fly from one place to another in an airplane, deriding himself as a trapeze.

Especially those who can go from having no money to being rich, there is no doubt that they are definitely outstanding, and they work even harder.

It is also an indisputable fact that rich people are more motivated and hardworking than poor people. It's just that the poor don't like to hear it. Whether rich or poor, there is pressure.

The pressure on the poor comes from the level of survival, while the pressure on the rich is from the level of development. The competition for the latter does not start from the outside, but from within.

It's not that they grow up and step into society, but that they start at a young age. To be precise, it generally starts at the age of three.

At this age, not to mention the poor, it is the children of ordinary families, ignorant and only know how to eat, drink, sleep, and play. Other than that, there's basically nothing to know.

At this time, Jia Youren's son was the first to come forward to perform. His fluent English London accent not only speaks without a Chinese accent, but also is very advanced and decent, with an Eton College accent.

This reminds me of the great British writer George Orwell. In order to experience prison life first-hand, he pretended to be a drunk and attacked the police.

As a result, George Orwell was not only arrested and sent to prison, but also persuaded by the police to say good things. The reason for this is that his Eton College English accent deeply betrays his upper-middle class of society.

George Orwell is a left-wing British writer whose representative works are Animal Farm and 1984. Animal Farm is an interesting political novel. This book is not thick, nor is it thin.

The work that established his place in the history of English literature is the famous political novel "1984". In the United Kingdom, where there is no cult of personality, a full-length bronze statue of him stands in the lobby on the first floor of the BBC headquarters, which shows that it is extraordinary.

This is mentioned in "1984", which is the machine screen that monitors people, which is undoubtedly Snowden's defection and exposure of the Prism Gate incident of the United States' public surveillance.

Jia Youwei looked at Jia Youren's son, but remembered in his heart the fluent English shown by Wang Zhonglei's eight-year-old son in "Dad is Back". This has stimulated a large number of middle classes, which in turn has strengthened the determination to invest more in children's education.

The granddaughter of the American financial tycoon Rogers also showed a handful of Chinese on TV, and the spoken pronunciation was so good that Chinese were ashamed, the standard of TV news announcers.

In addition to this, there is the granddaughter of the president *** and so on. Not only the United States, but also the United Kingdom. The BBC did a documentary "The Rich Life of a Billionaire", which mentioned that the United Kingdom, and even the children of the upper class of society in Western countries began to learn Chinese from an early age.

They want to have foresight in order to be one or twenty years ahead of the others. And that's not all. If the middle class were to watch the documentary "Winning at the Starting Line", they would fall into madness.

The reason why Jia Youwei thinks this documentary is very good is that he has seen the education of Hong Kong, island countries, Singapore, and India on the Internet.

Even if they have different actual conditions, they are still a change of soup and not a change of medicine. Parents are fighting hard to let their children go to prestigious schools.

"Winning at the Starting Line" tells the story of one is the mass education of lower-middle-class children, while the other is the elite education of the middle-to-upper class. The two are in stark contrast.

The former is to go to school and then go home and do your homework. After that, it's time to play. The attitude of parents is to be free-range. Of course, they don't have that time to take care of their children, after all, they have to be busy earning money to support their families.

In addition to the normal school education, various extracurricular studies are arranged, such as piano, English, painting, and ......

Otherwise, it's an exam cram school. Taking China's archrival island country as an example, a two- or $3,000 a month extracurricular class can also make a large number of middle- and upper-class mothers consciously and voluntarily pay for their children's learning.

How many of the children of the lower middle class and the children of the upper middle class have the fairest test than the latter?

In this process, the latter has not yet used the social connections and resources in his hands to pave the way for his children's future employment and career.
