Chapter 451: Traditional Virtues
Linglong, who was forcibly woken up, didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, but she heard something new clothes and new skirts and the like, and before she could react, she followed a group of big sisters downstairs with sleepy eyes.
Seeing a pile of cardboard boxes and a new dress on the sofa in the living room, Linglong's brain seemed to be stuck.
When she came to her senses again, she looked up and saw a delicately dressed doll opposite her, she was wearing a white dress with a bear pattern, and there was a lot of embroidery around the skirt, which she had never seen before.
Not only that, the shoes on the doll's feet, socks, and the garlands on their heads have never been seen before, but the only thing she has seen is the pair of white silk gloves on her hands.
But in her day, no one would make silk into gloves.
"Sister, this is ......" Linglong was about to ask, when suddenly she saw that the person opposite was also talking, and when she got closer, it turned out that what she was in front of was a mirror that was brighter than a bronze mirror, and the doll in it was really herself!
Linglong was so frightened that she immediately took a step back.
"How's that, Linglong, do you like it?" Gao Shan asked excitedly on the side, she could see that Linglong was still a little uncomfortable, but this was all normal.
In this completely unfamiliar era, Linglong still has a lot to accept, and it is not bad for this new dress.
"I like it very much, but sister, this skirt ......" Linglong lowered her head and hesitated slightly, and did not continue.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with it? Jian Wei'an asked.
The small leather shoes that match this skirt are a bit stiff, and girls may be a little uncomfortable wearing them for the first time, not to mention that Linglong has never touched leather shoes before.
Jian Wei'an considered that she might be a little uncomfortable wearing it for the first time.
"It's not my sister, it's just that this skirt looks so expensive, why don't you go talk to the boss and return it." Linglong finally spoke up, which was quite embarrassing for her.
Jian Wei'an never thought that she was worried about this matter?
Hearing Linglong say this, the girls stopped talking.
"This skirt is very soft to the touch, the fabric should be high-quality cotton, plus the embroidery lace around it, it should be handmade, and the gloves are all silk, and the price is not cheap at a glance." Linglong counted the details on the skirt that made her happy.
"I came to my sister, but I couldn't help anything, and I spent so much money on you, it's too undeserved." She bowed her head.
In fact, Linglong didn't come here to eat and live for nothing, but Jian Wei'an didn't accept it.
Among the novelties she brought with her as she descended the mountain were some of the metals she had saved over thousands of years, as well as fossils she had picked up in the mountains.
As soon as she got off the mountain, she handed it to Jian Wei'an, saying that it was to be used as rent.
Jian Wei'an smiled and told her that the currency was a little different now, so these could not be used to buy things, but those fossils were rare now, and Jian Wei'an asked her to collect them herself.
So Linglong has always felt that she is still indebted to this group of big brothers and sisters
。
Originally, when she heard Linglong say this question just now, Qi Meili smiled heartily, and was about to wave her hand to tell her that the dress was okay, it didn't cost much, not to mention that Xie Xiao paid for it, and they were not in a hurry.
Seeing Xiao Linglong so sad, Qi Meili couldn't even say the tone of a joke.
Jian Wei'an gently pulled her over and said to her with a smile, "Little fool, don't think so much now, we are a family when you live here, and the family should help each other." ”
She smiled and continued, "Although these dresses are not to be worn every day, don't you think she is beautiful? ”
Linglong looked at Jian Wei'an seriously, "But I just think it's too beautiful, so I can't bear to let my sister spend so much money." ”
"If you like it, don't say no, take it. The girls here have one or two very beautiful little skirts, and we should have them too. Jian Wei'an said and helped her tidy up.
Not to mention, before Qianlinglong, she had always worn the clothes of her big sisters in the villa, and it was still a little inappropriate.
As soon as the little skirt was put on this time, it was really delicate like this doll, and when Jian Wei'an first saw her, she was completely like two people.
"But my sister ......" Linglong is still entangled.
"Don't be, listen to me, this will be our meeting gift, you can accept it well, as for the repayment, it will be a long time to come." Jian Wei'an said and winked at Gao Shan next to him.
"That's right." Gao Shan slapped her thigh and suddenly thought of it.
"Didn't you say you were going to school yesterday? Then I'll tell you how today's children repay their parents for their nurturing kindness. Gao Shan said as she led Linglong to the living room.
"Modern society is very different from before, the living conditions are much better than before, the people eat well, dress well and use well, and naturally many things are different."
"The children are still very filial to their parents, but they use their bodies to warm up for their parents as before, and they don't have to go naked in winter to go to the frozen river to melt the ice, and then fish out the carp from it." Jian Wei'an added.
"One of the most common ways they use it now is to repay their parents by reading books." Qi Meili jumped out in time and said, although she didn't expect that one day she would come to persuade other children to study hard.
"Study, but how to repay your parents for reading? The knowledge you understand after reading the book is your own. Linglong stared at the big innocent eyes.
Jian Wei'an couldn't help but sigh, if only most children could understand this truth now.
"Yes, reading books is indeed enriching your knowledge, but this knowledge can help you find a good job in the future, and with a good job, you can make a lot of money, and money is the currency we are popular now."
After Jian Wei'an finished speaking, Linglong realized, what she was thinking about now was to be able to earn the currency of this era to repay the kindness of these brothers and sisters around her.
"Then I'll go to school tomorrow!"
Linglong thought for a moment, raised her small fist and said vigorously.
Jian Wei'an looked at Gao Shan, then at Qi Meili, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Little fool, it's summer vacation, and it's still early to study?"
"It's still early, so when will I be able to study?" Linglong suddenly looked like a deflated ball.
In the next time, the three girls sat in the living room and explained to Linglong in detail about her long future reading career.
Linglong almost collapsed when she heard that she had been studying hard for six years longer than the original ten years, and that it was possible to earn money after entering social work.
And these are only possibilities, and there is also the possibility that she may not be able to find a job at all after 16 years of study.
The probability of this happening is very small, but Jian Wei'an considers that when Linglong grows up, this society will be different, and it is very likely that many companies will no longer recruit undergraduates.
In that case, it is true that after 16 years of study, I still can't find a job.
"Then sister, you should return this dress, if I can't pay for it after sixteen years, what will I do? I think you don't buy me clothes in the past few years of my study, I'll just wear your old clothes, it's fine. ”
Linglong was extremely depressed, the whole person was like an eggplant beaten by frost, and she was wearing a beautiful little dress with a bitter gourd face.
Jian Wei'an stepped forward with a smile, "But we didn't want you to repay us from the beginning, we just told you that there is a way, you can repay us through this method, but we are buying you a dress now and sending you to study, not so that you can earn money to support us after sixteen years." ”
Jian Wei'an looked at her and said seriously.
"That's right, you're our friend, not our child, and even if it's our child, we wouldn't ask her to do that."
Gao Shan also stepped aside, and this time she didn't accept Jian Wei'an's gesture again, she took the initiative to speak.
"In fact, since ancient times, it has been like this, most parents have children, and the main reason why they raise them to become adults is because of love, they love this child, and they will pay so much for this child, and their original intention has never been to rely on this child to support the elderly."
Qi Meili continued, "And the reason why most children will provide for their parents when they are old is because they have filial piety and are grateful for the nurturing grace of their parents, which is a beautiful character, but this is not a hard rule, at least the three people standing in front of you don't think it's a rule." ”
After Qi Meili finished speaking, Jian Wei'an and Gao Shan both nodded at Linglong.
In modern society, they think that their pension is completely self-sufficient, and their children have their own lives, and they don't need to bother, and the most important reason is that none of them have children yet.
"Okay, it's all far away, anyway, Linglong, you just need to remember that we do these things we are willing to, you
Don't be burdened, if you really feel that you can't go, wait until you go to school, study hard, study hard, and defeat the monster in the exam. Gao Shan cheered her on.
"When you really become a top student and learn to help those students who don't study well, we will feel that you are repaying us."
Every time Jian Wei'an thought of Linglong, clenched her fists and said that she wanted to be a top student, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
"And this dress is really beautiful on you, even if you wear this dress in front of me a few more times every day, I think this dress is worth the money."
Gao Shan looked at her from afar, as if admiring a work of art.
She's been liking these little dresses for a long time, but she's the kind of person who only likes to see others wear what she doesn't like, so it's rare to have such a cute model now, so it's not a pity.
And it's hard to cheat it back, how can you easily return the skirt.
"Okay then, then thank you to the three sisters." After Linglong finished speaking, she slowly relaxed, and she silently wrote down in her heart what her sisters said to her today.
Although the rules here are very different from those of the Queen Mother of the West, she feels that it feels more like home.
