Chapter 116: Wedding Matters, The Age of Hustle
The family banquet was almost finished, and naturally the three sessions of the trial began. The little thing between Lin Yi and Sunflower was asked clearly and clearly by the eldest sister.
Birthday parties at Disneyland, romantic proposals at castles, carefully portrayed vividly. When the eldest sister listened, she inevitably showed envious eyes, and unconsciously glanced at her husband.
However, the eldest sister not only did not have the slightest jealousy, but wanted to make the younger sister's wedding grand and grand, and draw a complete end to the hard life in the past!
"Diligence and thrift is the way to run a family, it's better not to do a lot of things!" Uncle Xiang disagreed. As a father of two daughters, he probably doesn't want to favor one over the other.
But the eldest sister doesn't think so, maybe she treats the younger sister as a daughter, for her, this wedding is more like a major ceremony, and it has to be glamour!
The uncle and the eldest sister competed, but it was Lin Yi and Xiang Yanghua, the unmarried couple and the original core people, who were completely marginalized.
In the end, the result of the deliberations was that a grand, water-based wedding was held, which barely settled the dispute.
The eldest sister is like a mother, and the preparations on Sunflower's side, as well as the three media and six hiring, are all handed over to the eldest sister to be responsible.
Uncle Guan is busy with education and running a school, Lin Yi has no relatives around him, and he doesn't know anything himself, so the man's side has to trouble his brother-in-law'!
Hearing the result, Lin Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't understand the door of the wedding, after all, he didn't have personal experience in his previous life. And when attending the wedding banquet, it is to eat, drink, and have fun, after all, it is none of your business.
Now that there is a 'group of relatives and friends' to help worry about it, it is too late for him to be happy. But now, unlike in later generations, there are some rules that still have to be followed, such as sleeping in separate rooms at night.
However, Lin Yi is not a casual person, and he will not be unable to sleep. The mattress is not a soft Simmons, but the warm atmosphere here makes him feel relaxed.
For example, now, suspicion, fear of marriage, generation gap, these manifestations of 'premarital syndrome', he has not had the slightest!
========== dividing line =========
The next morning, after exercising, Lin Yi and Xiang Yanghua went together to visit Xiaoxin's school. However, the new boy is still sleeping, and the leader has become generous.
Although he is 14 years old, he can't keep up with the progress of the middle school in the city because of his poor science foundation, so Uncle Guan made the decision and asked Dafang to come over and tutor in this rural primary school.
If you are an ordinary child, you may feel that dropping out of school is a difficult thing to talk about. But Dafang is different, after Lin Yi asked, he was calm: "The city is too noisy, it's better to be here!"
"Life is young, the spirit is patented, and when it grows up, its thoughts are scattered. These are all the wisdom of the past, but my previous school often did the opposite. ”
Lin Yi was confused when he heard it, so he had to ask the children and explain it again in the vernacular. If you are not ashamed to ask and reach the teacher, he can also deal with it calmly, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about!
If you don't understand the technology, ask the engineer, and if you don't understand the management, ask the CEO. No one can do it all. If he doesn't know how to pretend to be blind to command, with his current net worth, a loss may be as high as tens of millions of dollars!
So sometimes, the more people are in high positions, the more humble they may be. Because they can understand what it is like to tremble and walk on thin ice.
Dafang explained: "This is from the "Gan Family Motto", which means that when people are young, their minds are focused and sharp, and when they grow up, their thoughts are easily scattered. ”
"According to my observation, in the previous school, many children had already escaped before they grew up, and it was difficult for them to concentrate on one thing! ”
Lin Yi nodded straight when he heard it, this change in children is the characteristic of the information age. But this is not unique to the Internet era, but has begun to affect human beings since the TV era.
After the popularization of television, the 'eyeball economy' began. The attention of consumers is the object of contention for companies.
The value of attention, businessmen have long noticed. And children and parents don't realize that curiosity and attention are actually the most valuable part of their possessions. As a result, it was inexplicably stolen by someone else!
So there's a song that isn't sung: "Where has all the time gone?"
In addition to school and work, people's spare time is no longer up to them. Children can't do without game cartoons, and adults are also inseparable from film and television dramas and entertainment programs.
The more they have seen, the ability to think and talk nonsense, the children are getting stronger and stronger, but the perseverance to focus on one thing is getting weaker and weaker.
Information is constantly flowing like water, and when it floods, of course, it will be too much. There's a buzzword that best describes this situation – you know too much!
In his previous life, Lin Yi suffered a big loss in this regard. Later, Uncle Guan taught him earnestly and woke him up.
'Spiritual patent' has allowed him to achieve fruitful results in the past year. Not only materially, but many things that he couldn't see through in the past are now nothing in his heart.
As they spoke, a few people walked along the mossy path to a small courtyard. Hearing that this was the school, Lin Yi couldn't believe it. The primary school in my memory must at least have one building! The few tiled houses in front of me are actually a school?
Lin Yi complained speechlessly: It is worthy of being a 'small' study, it is really worthy of the name. Perhaps, it would be more appropriate to call it a private school.
However, the brother-in-law and eldest sister are still attentive - 'Tai O Private Primary School', the plaque is brand new, and the house has not been renovated for a long time, and it looks no worse than the big house at home!
Today is a day off, and there are no students in the courtyard. As a new 'venture capitalist', after Lin Yi walked in, his first reaction was to check everywhere, are there any potential safety hazards?
Hidden stones, sharp angle iron-not to mention, as a part-time 'safety inspector', Lin Yi is very qualified, and he has really discovered several dangers! If he can solve it easily, he will deal with it directly; if he can't solve it, he will notify his brother-in-law when he goes back."
Looking at the empty yard, Lin Yi put forward his opinion: "You should get some sports equipment, otherwise it really doesn't look like a school here!"
Dafang explained: "Not counting me, there are 56 students here, most of them children from poor families. Every day after school, I either help my father clean up the catch, or help my mother work in the fields, which is not a small amount of labor. ”
Lin Yi waved his hand: "Sports, after all, is different from labor, it pays more attention to competition and cooperation, and it can also make people understand the rules." Buy some big and small balls, and add a nutritious meal to them, and I'll pay for it!"
It only took two or three minutes for a few people to visit the classroom. It's really nothing to see, and there's not even a board newspaper in it!
However, although there is not even an exhortation to 'study hard', there is a big 'quiet' hanging in several classrooms. Lin Yi took a look at it and recognized it as Uncle Guan's Mobao.
It seems that the noise of the times, the old people are also aware. As the head of a school, 'quiet' is his educational philosophy.
Xiang Yanghua sighed: "It's really a family with four walls! I think I'll buy some more paintbrushes and paints." Even if there is no art teacher, it is good for children to paint casually!
Lin Yi nodded again and again, with a look of approval on his face, and added: "We run a publishing house, and it is very convenient to buy books." You can buy a batch of children's books, get a small library, or a reading room. ”
Everyone came up with a lot of good ideas. Lin Yi was afraid of forgetting, so he hurriedly took out a pen and notebook and wrote down these ideas.
