Chapter Ninety-Three: "The Theory of the Uselessness of Reading" is a paradox
Not long after his junior year, Zhou Hangyue began to review and prepare for the graduate school entrance exam. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking at his posture that he can't live without books for a day, I think this is his fate.
And I, after two years of perseverance, I can't hold on.
The complicated life, the world of open and secret fighting, will not be smooth sailing anywhere, as long as there is still a breath left, we must fight to the end.
It is rare that Zhou Hangyue talked to me about his family affairs during the review and preparation for the exam.
There are two older brothers, both of whom gave up continuing education because they had no money, and when they came to him, their parents and elder brother forced him to go to college.
There are five members of the family, and all the savings of the four people are used on him alone. barely allowed him to gain a firm foothold in college.
"Xiao Hao, do you know? In fact, what I hate the most is reading, that is, going to school. Because I dragged our family alone for decades. When Zhou Hangyue said this, there was hatred in his eyes.
"But at least you're on a bachelor's degree now, and you've landed smoothly. If you don't want to get on, forget it. Don't be too stubborn, after all, consider your family's financial strength. ”
"So, in order to prevent their hard-earned money from being wasted, I desperately read and study, and I live in guilt all the time, their expectations are too high, and my pressure is too great."
"Now many people are still struggling with food and clothing, talking about education and education, since you have stepped out of the confinement of your original family, cherish your current life. For you, the cost of graduate exams and school is also quite large, if you really feel guilty to take exams and go to school, then if you fail the exam, you will face the end of Wujiang self-slaughter. After all, you're so strong. "Anyway, I looked at Zhou Hangyue with a little pity, this young man from the same background as me.
"That's what worries me the most. I'm afraid that I won't be able to bear it, I'm afraid that I'll let them down, I'm even more afraid that I'll fail myself, I can't fail, I have no way out. Speaking of the latter he became more and more excited, and was a little incoherent.
I tapped him on the shoulder and handed him a glass of water, trying to calm him down.
"Then again, I don't go to graduate school, so what? I don't have anything, I'm not good at words, I'm nervous and stuttering when I see people, and it's hard to find a job. Who would want a man who has nothing to do? I don't have any advantages, so I don't have to go to graduate school and wait to go home to farm. ”
I keep playing haha. "That's good, let's go, go home and pack a mountain, we live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and from then on, we don't hear anything outside the window, and we just want to eat and wait for death."
Zhou Hangyue knew what I meant by this, how could it be so easy to live. Since you have chosen to go out of the mountains to welcome the new world, you must be prepared to go to the end of the world by yourself, don't care if you are ready, as soon as you turn around, you will have everything.
As for the use of the words "eating and waiting for death" at the end, it is to vaguely remind Zhou Hangyue that the purpose of our efforts to get out of the original family is to make a difference and achieve personal freedom, life freedom and financial freedom. Instead of numbly surviving to be fed. Eat enough to survive. What is the difference between this and poultry in a cage.
We are born to be human beings, not in vain.
I worked desperately to get rid of an atmosphere of "the uselessness of reading", and gradually understood that there was no "useless theory of reading", and since it was useless, why should it be useful.
The effects of short-sightedness and narrow-mindedness will continue from generation to generation, and if you don't step out of the cycle of our native environment, you will never understand that we can live better for ourselves.
When you've only eaten whole grains and wild vegetables, how do you know what bacon and burgers taste like?
This is the root of the uselessness of reading.
It has to be said that the products of different educational environments will derive different endings.
After the test of complex and cruel environment, you can live a more calm and optimistic life.
In the end, despite his reluctance, Zhou Hangyue still carried his heavy schoolbag to review and prepare for the exam, in his opinion, there was no other choice but to review and prepare for the exam. Perhaps only a heavy schoolbag would make him sleep peacefully in the middle of the night.
The biggest insecurity in this world comes from guilt, shame for one's parents, shame for one's family. Shame on those who have helped themselves. We are always repenting, and then blaming ourselves, why don't we try harder, in fact, the word hard work is never a compliment to the winner, but a consolation to the loser.
Success or failure is not in hard work, but in mentality. People who only want to reach the top of the mountain will not care how rough the road under their feet is.
Open the road in the mountains, build bridges in the water, and encourage you together.
