Chapter 302: Simple Life
"Breakfast is very important, and when you are sick, it will be much more comfortable to eat something that is easy to digest."
Jiang Lili gave Yi Yang a bowl of millet porridge.
The millet was cooked badly, and the amount of water was just right, Yi Yang scooped a spoonful, blew it, and ate it slowly into his mouth, neither too thick, nor too thin, in short, just right.
There was still some pain in his throat, and Yi Yang chewed it carefully a few times before swallowing it slowly.
Jiang Lili also took a bite and said, "Is it delicious?" ”
Isn't it just millet porridge, what's so delicious about this thing?
But Yi Yang smiled and said: "The cooking is just right, the simpler the food, the more it can test the cooking skills of the cook, and it can already be seen from here that Sister Jiang's cooking skills are getting higher and higher...... Ha ......"
Jiang Lili held back a smile and gently knocked Yi Yang's head: "It's too fake." ”
"Hey ......"
Jiang Lili pointed to the side dishes on a few small plates and said, "You can try these dishes again." ”
Naturally, the side dishes for breakfast can't be complicated and greasy, just a dish of vegetarian fried shredded potatoes, a plate of cold cucumbers, and a plate of mustard.
Yi Yang said: "It's delicious, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm good at cooking." ”
Jiang Lili held back a smile, pointed to the millet porridge, and said, "I bought a new rice cooker, which is fully automatic, and I don't have to worry about pouring millet and water into it according to the measuring cup." ”
He pointed to a few side dishes: "What about this shredded potato, cut by an automatic vegetable cutting machine, fried by a fully automatic stir-fry machine, this mustard, well, it was bought in the supermarket, only this cold cucumber was made by myself, but it was very simple, just pour some soy sauce vinegar monosodium glutamate or something......"
Yi Yang blinked, scooped another spoonful of millet porridge and ate it.
This woman......
Jiang Lili saw Yi Yang's embarrassment, with a smile on his face, his hand supported his chin, and slowly lowered his head, looked at the bowl, and gently stirred the millet porridge in the bowl.
She likes to live simply.
It's easy to make things complicated, but it's hard to simplify things into methodical situations.
Life is nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation, and in Jiang Lili's opinion, simple life is nothing more than wearing the clothes you like, eating the food you like, living comfortably, and going wherever you want.
But the simpler the life, the more expensive it is.
Whenever she thinks of this, she will feel extremely happy, because her parents have created conditions for her to make life simpler, she will not feel that she likes to live simply and is superior to others, she just has the conditions to choose this, which is something she is grateful for from the bottom of her heart.
But many times, this is where the troubles come from.
The life you want is incompatible with the people around you, including your parents, and their pursuits.
Sometimes I think that in fact, I am probably just too lazy to be helped.
Too lazy to think about complex relationships, too lazy to think about complex work, too lazy to pursue fame, status, power, etc., etc.
Jiang Lili raised his head and asked Yi Yang: "By the way, Yi Yang, have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?" ”
"In the future?"
Yi Yang took the spoon in his mouth, thought for a while, and then said, "Let's take the college entrance examination...... Going to a good university. ”
"What about the future? What about after you go to college? ”
Yi Yang pondered for a moment, and scooped another spoonful of millet porridge, at this time the millet porridge was not very hot, and his throat seemed to be accustomed to this touch, and swallowed it very comfortably.
After eating this spoonful, Yi Yang smiled and said, "To be honest, I really haven't seriously thought about this matter before. ”
When I was in high school, most people's thoughts were to get a high score and go to a good university, but what they really wanted to do was often after the scores came out, and the family even looked around for various staff officers, although it seemed to be the best choice for a very serious study, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, the process was rigorous in the situation at the time, but what a hasty thing for the person concerned.
Just let other people make a big decision in their own lives.
Sadly, most people know that it may be wrong, but they don't know what to do.
Most people don't even know what they like when they fill in the college entrance examination volunteers...... In other words, goals and hobbies are actually blank.
I don't know or love all kinds of majors.
Yi Yang does not criticize this phenomenon, most people can only do this, and there is nothing wrong with choosing a good major with social consensus and a bright future.
But he's different, he'...... What a born-again man!
If it was a few years ago, he probably wouldn't have such confidence, but now with the improvement of cognitive ability, it is no longer what it used to be.
He now has the confidence to not have to choose the future path for the sake of livelihood.
Yi Yang smiled and said, "Try to live the kind of life you want to live." ”
Jiang Lili asked curiously: "The kind of life you want to live?" What kind of life? ”
Yi Yang looked at Jiang Lili, and was a little hesitant to share it at this moment...... Because I was a little worried that I would be despised if I said it, I first took a preventive shot: "I'm not mature, sister, don't laugh at me." ”
Jiang Lili leaned closer and said, "Why are you laughing at you?" Let's talk about it. ”
"Hmm...... I hope that at a very young age, I can earn money for financial freedom, and then do what I like in a place I like, with the people I like. ”
Jiang Lili said with a smile: "People with free wealth want to go further, hundreds of millions want to go to billions, billions want to be tens of billions, and tens of billions of dollars will hope to support the front and back...... In short, people will not be satisfied. ”
Yi Yang shook his head: "I don't pursue those, for me, the ideal life is to have no debt troubles, to have an office building or a big hotel to collect rent, and to have enough money to spend a year, at this time I can travel if I want to, if I feel bored, I can also go to Tsinghua University or Peking University, take a whole year of classes, and see what the smartest brains in China are thinking......
"Buy a house near the provincial library and read books for a whole year without stress."
"Meet some great basketball players and ask them to play a few games."
"Spend some money, find a few great musicians, learn music seriously, buy a set of equipment, if you can, write a few songs by yourself, and don't seek to make money, it doesn't matter if you post them on the Internet, someone listens to them, and someone scolds them."
"Or, if you write a book, if traditional writers don't accept my wild way, write an online article, called ...... Well, how about calling it "Everyday Life After Wealth Freedom"? ”
"Of course, these ideas of mine may be criticized by some professors as refined egoists, ha......"
A student at BJ University who is only trying to make money to live a better life after graduation is often criticized, while a person who drops out of high school and strives to make money to live a better life will be praised as an inspirational model.
Yi Yang narrated lightly, the stronger the smile, the negative impact of the cold seemed to be completely gone.
"Hee ......" Jiang Lili couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Yi Yang describing that kind of life very seriously: "Are you the only one in your life?" ”
Yi Yang was slightly stunned, glanced at Jiang Lili, and then said with some ease: "There will be one more person......
"What if that person doesn't agree with your life?"
"Just find someone who agrees."
"Huh? What if I can't find it? ”
"Single."
"Single?"
"Well, single." Yi Yang looked serious.
Jiang Lili was stunned and muttered, "Oh...... Single......"
Yi Yang had finished eating, Jiang Lili got up and was about to clean up the dishes, but Yi Yang took the fast child over first and said, "I'll come." ”
"Huh? Forget it, you just have to rest. ”
Yi Yang shook his head: "I'm going to be raised by Sister Jiang to be a waste." Besides, isn't there a dishwasher at home? Put the cutlery in it, it will still do. ”
Jiang Lili stopped arguing, but when Yi Yang put the tableware into the kitchen, she also went in and watched Yi Yang do things on the side.
"Dishwasher of this model...... Well, how to say it, I didn't buy a dishwasher before I thought that this thing would really make life very convenient, but after buying it, I still found that it was not very suitable for China. ”
"Huh?"
"Pots, some bowls with special shapes, it's not convenient to put them in, but Chinese food is generally like that, and then the food residues have to be disposed of before they can be put inside...... Actually, it's not that convenient. ”
"Oh, uh-huh...... But it's also reasonable, it was originally imported from abroad, it is a device adapted to Western food, the tableware of Western food is relatively uniform, the plates are the main, and there are not too many food residues and the like......"
The two of you are exchanging words with me.
Jiang Lili chose the setting of the dishwasher, and when he looked up, he just saw Yi Yang's face, and was slightly stunned, then lowered his head and laughed.
It's a very warm feeling......
I just thought of something again, and the smile faded away.
"Yi Yang, thank you for the gift you gave me." Jiang Lili stood up.
Yi Yang's eyes lit up, "Do you like it?" ”
"I like it."
"If you like it, it's fine."
……
Time flies.
After returning from the East China Sea, Yiyang returned to Qinghe County for the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.
In the blink of an eye, autumn went to winter and came again.
Sang Ning was as full of enthusiasm for learning as ever, she made rapid progress at the beginning, and even got a high score of 140 in English several times, but soon encountered a bottleneck, and her score did not advance but regressed.
Yi Yang can probably understand that state.
Learning knowledge is a dynamic process.
The scores before the college entrance examination can only reflect the results of a certain period of dynamic time, and the interval of its reflection is stretched to the entire high school, and the length, strength, and depth of knowledge will crush people to death.
As Luo Bing once described, many people have good grades in the first year of high school, but there are some differences, some are because they are good at the knowledge of the first year of high school, some master the rules by rote memorization or repeated brushing, and some are ...... I mastered the knowledge in three years of high school, but it happened to be my first year of high school at that time.
And with the extension of the progress of learning, some people can't understand the knowledge of the second year of high school, some people find that there are so many question types that they explode, and it is too much to master all the knowledge by brushing the questions, and some people don't understand the knowledge in their brains, just blindly remember, forget the front after learning, and even remember the knowledge points.
And he has been steady, building a knowledge system little by little, without understanding a theorem, he will definitely not advance, although the results in front of him for a long time have not been able to improve to the forefront, but he can survive...... After staying up, many top-ranked students couldn't hold it back, so they fell behind him.
The results of the last monthly exam have come to the top fifteen.
Yi Yang also increasingly agrees with a point of view.
Standing at the height of the country, the essence of the college entrance examination is the mechanism of the country to screen talents, colleges and universities, especially famous schools, the fundamental purpose of cultivating undergraduates is to enhance the research ability of the country's high-tech disciplines, and then enhance the country's international competitiveness, for example, there is a game called "Empire", in which the "university" unit is to provide scientific and technological enhancement for their own units, so one of the purposes of the college entrance examination is to screen out those who have high IQ and are suitable for research, so that they can engage in scientific research.
Therefore, thinking from this point of view, Yi Yang can now figure out why the country in the previous life carried out "burden reduction" with great fanfare, not just to help children reduce the burden, but because various training institutions have failed the country's mechanism for screening high-IQ talents through cramming and cheating, and have screened people who were originally not suitable for research into the scientific research team, which will inevitably drag down the country over time.
Yi Yang thought of this, suddenly came back to his senses, a little funny, I don't know when, he developed this habit, when he encountered a phenomenon, he wanted to think about its underlying logic, if he figured it out, he would have a sense of achievement, but he rarely shared these views and ideas with others, unless it was someone with similar knowledge to himself.
He glanced down at Wang Sangning, who was doing the question.
Wang Sangning is becoming more and more silent now, her hair is getting shorter and shorter, and she has completely turned into a tomboy hairstyle, but the strange thing is that her temperament is more gentle than when her hair was a little longer.
Short hair is easy to care for.
Yi Yang said: "It's out of class, go out to breathe?" ”
Wang Sangning glanced up at Yi Yang and said with a smile: "Let's do this question first......
Yi Yang glanced sideways and shook his head: "It's going to be out of class if you make it." ”
Wang Sangning rubbed her temples with some pain and nodded, "Okay." ”
Looking out from the balcony, there was a bleak scene.
The withered yellow leaves were scattered on the walking path outside the school gate, and the aunt who swept the floor swept slowly a few times, and when the wind blew and fell a few more, she looked up at the tree, as if sighing.
Wang Sangning stared there in a daze.
Yi Yang looked at Wang Sangning quietly for a while, and suddenly said, "Sangning, do you have something to do this weekend?" ”
Wang Sangning was slightly stunned: "Huh? Make-up lessons......"
She signed up for a make-up class a while ago.
Yi Yang shook his head: "This Saturday, I will take the subject three exam, and if it goes well, the subject four will also be taken together, and I will be able to get my driver's license, and I will tell Sister Jiang that we will go together when the time comes." ”
Wang Sangning smiled and said, "If you want to come on, I won't go......"
Yi Yang said: "But I made a bet with Sister Jiang, you can witness it." ”
After a pause, Yi Yang said seriously: "If you keep tightening a thread, it is easy for people to collapse. ”
Wang Sangning was stunned for a moment, his eyes flowed, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, before he raised his head and said with a smile: "Okay, if you pass the exam, please let us eat!" ”
"I'll buy a car and take you for a ride."
"Huh? Buying a car? ”
"Bikes."
Wang Sangning covered her mouth and smiled shallowly.
