28. Epistemology

Aunt Jiang observed Jiang Kangkang for a long time and found nothing unusual. She asked suddenly: "Did you not get up to go to the bathroom this afternoon?"

Jiang Kangkang complained, "I don't want to go to the bathroom?"

Aunt Jiang then asked, "Who helped you up, big fool?"

Jiang Kangkang was unhappy and said, "Mom! What's the matter with me, a big girl's house? I can't get up by myself." So he got up slowly from the kang and said, "This big fool has been talking here for more than an hour. When he came, I just got up and planned to go to the bathroom. When he came in, I didn't get up after he came in, and I was suffocating me to death!"

After saying that, he walked out on the edge of the kang.

Aunt Jiang understood that she had been fooled by Zhang Jianjun.

This little bastard, looking at Dasha here, he didn't dare to come over, and used the method of sow discord to make himself beat Dasha out! Dasha is really gone, so he can run over to tease her daughter! Little bastard, you are really the seed of your father, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.

Aunt Jiang instructed Jiang Kangkang: "In the future, there is no one at home, so you must lock the yard door and the door of the house must be inserted!"

Jiang Kangkang misunderstood and looked at her mother strangely and said, "Mom! Don't think about it randomly, okay? Dashu is not that kind of person!"

Aunt Jiang said, "I didn't say Dasha. If everyone is like Dasha, I'd be relieved!"

Jiang Kangkang looked at her mother suspiciously and asked, "Who do you want me to be on guard against?"

Aunt Jiang said: "Everyone has to be careful! Nowadays, there are monsters and monsters everywhere. Why don't you suffer enough losses? If you don't have a big fool, you will have to live in that poor mountain valley!"

Jiang Kangkang and her mother couldn't understand it, so they were too lazy to argue, so they went to the yard to go to the toilet by themselves.

When she came back, Aunt Jiang went over to help her.

Jiang Kangkang refused to let her help him, so he slowly returned to the kang in the inner room and continued to sit under the quilt.

Aunt Jiang sat down on the edge of the kang and asked Jiang Kangkang: "What do you think of your stupid brother?"

Jiang Kangkang said casually: "It's pretty good. However, I really didn't expect that his stupid brain disease would be cured by himself."

Aunt Jiang asked again: "If you were asked to choose a partner in the future, could you choose a person like Dasha?"

Jiang Kangkang turned red and looked at her mother with a angrily voice, saying, "What are you saying, how old am I? Just tell me this?"

Aunt Jiang said, "Resist, you are not young anymore. When my mother was so old, she already married your father."

Jiang Kangkang said loudly: "Mom! This is a new society! A new generation of young people must have ideals, ambitions, and ambitions, and cannot consider personal issues too early!"

Speaking of this, a feeling of melancholy arose inexplicably.

Now it seems that my so-called ideals and ambitions are a kind of stupidity. Many people in the knowledge are trying their best to abandon their past ideals and ambitions, and strive to return to the city! I am the luckiest, and I am the lucky one in disguise, and I realize the dream that others dream of realizing, and I am back.

However, when I came back, I had no job and could only stay at home and eat for free. What should I do in the future?

Just as she was thinking, her mother spoke again: "I don't want you and Dasha now. I just asked you, in a few years, you will reach the age of marriage. Will you like Dasha? Do you care that he is a fool in the eyes of others?"

Jiang Kangkang became annoyed and said with a cold face: "Jiang Meimei is coming back from school now, so you don't have to cook. Let's talk nonsense here!"

It's summer now, and it's long. When Jiang Meimei got off school, it was still dawn, so Yao Yuan didn't have to pick her up, and she came back with her classmates.

Aunt Jiang couldn't tell me about the ugly one from Jiang Kangkang, so she had to go out to cook.

During dinner in the evening, Jiang Kangkang still expressed his worries.

Although my biggest worry was solved, I finally moved my household registration back and no longer had to worry about being bullied by others. However, I have no job this time, what should I do in the future?

Aunt Jiang said, "You have lived so much since you were a child and have no job. Didn't your mother raise you up? If you have a mother, just be safe, so you don't have to worry about anything else."

Jiang Kangkang was unhappy and said, "I can't let you raise me for the rest of my life, right?"

Yes, when the child is older, Aunt Jiang will get older. When she can’t take care of the child, what should the children do? This is indeed a worry!

But then I thought about it, it was too early to move as she was old. I comforted my daughter and said, "God can't starve to death. There will be roads before the car arrives at the mountain. The country can't watch you starve to death, right? There will always be a solution. You can recover from your illness now."

Jiang Meimei interrupted: "Now, Zhang Jianguo's group of people who stayed here have no jobs. They have nothing to do at home all day, fight everywhere and cause trouble, and often go to school to make trouble. There are also many people who don't go to junior high school and follow them, and they don't have a job."

Jiang Kangkang sighed and said, "Our mining machine is far away from the city and there is no other factory. As long as the mining machine does not recruit workers, I will not have a chance. The mining machine will retreat, and then my children will take over. I have not recruited workers for many years. There are more unemployed people in the city, and I have nothing to do with me."

Aunt Jiang thought about it and said, "Or what if I go find Representative Zhang, who is now the director of our mining machinery and machinery reform committee. I will tell him, I will step down and let you take over?"

Jiang Kangkang said, "Mom, you are not at retirement age yet, so this is definitely not possible. Besides, I have already been in line and my health has collapsed. According to the policy, we are just sisters, and Meimei won't have to go to the line in the future. In this case, after Meimei graduated from high school, she will have the opportunity to go directly to the mining machine and work as a worker. If I support your quota and enter the factory, Meimei will have to go to the line in."

Aunt Jiang stopped talking. It was really not cost-effective to let Kang Kang enter the factory.

Jiang Meimei pouted and said, "Sister, you can go to the factory first, don't worry about me, I'm still early to graduate!"

Jiang Kangkang said: "What's the earlier? You will graduate in August next year!"

Aunt Jiang looked at Yao Yuan who was having a meal and asked him, "Silly, why don't you talk?"

Yao Yuan now has Yao Daxia's body, and many feelings have changed. The biggest feature of this body is that it tastes good whenever he eats. He treats every meal as a kind of enjoyment.

After hearing Aunt Jiang’s inquiry, he stopped to eat, thought for a while and said, “Aunt Jiang, I always think that what you said before is the most correct.”

Aunt Jiang asked with a confused look on her face, "What did I say?"

Yao Yuan said: "Do you still remember? When Kang Kang asked you for her volunteer form, he looked down on Principal Wang. You once told her that knowledgeable people deserve respect everywhere. I think this sentence is too true.

As long as you have knowledge, no matter where you go, you can obtain everything you need for survival through knowledge. Moreover, with knowledge, your horizon will be broader, and no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can solve them through knowledge.

So, I think there is really no need to rush to find a job. It is better to use this time to learn the knowledge learned in school again, and you will definitely be able to use it in the future."

Jiang Meimei first curled her lips and said, "You can't help but teach well in schools. You are called epistemology. When you go out, you are reactionary remarks!"

Aunt Jiang also sighed and said, "That's the reason. But now when looking for a job, I don't care about this."

Jiang Meimei retorted again: "Brother Shame, you are quite knowledgeable. You can even understand my high school textbook, but I can't understand it! But if you don't have to go to the train station to carry, you can only make money by relying on your strength?"

Yao Yuan then said: "What does the country depend on? Knowledge! It is abnormal now. One day in the future, it will still depend on knowledge. If you don't study hard now and have no knowledge in the future, how can you be a useful person?"

Jiang Meimei shouted unhappily: "When did I not study hard? I always get more than 90 points in the exam questions you give each time? I just told you that you can't go out and say such words, and you will be arrested!"

Yao Yuan has been helping Jiang Meimei learn. Aunt Jiang knows this, and even Jiang Kangkang knows it.

In that era, universities had terminated the admission exam. If you study hard in school, you would be laughed at by other classmates. Most of Jiang Meimei's studies came back at night and followed Yao Yuan to study. Strictly speaking, Yao Yuan was her real teacher.

Jiang Kangkang sighed and said, "Since I was in junior high school, I didn't attend classes normally in school. I also talk about remembering the bitterness and sweetness in class. As a high school student, I am at the level of elementary school. Now I can't even touch the door if I want to learn, and I'm afraid I'm not even as good as beautiful."

Yao Yuan said patiently: "Mimei didn't study the things in junior high school at the beginning. She insisted on self-studying, and now she has made up for it. You can learn from scratch now, and it's still time to do it."

Jiang Kangkang looked at him and asked, "Dasha, I remember when you were in elementary school, except for the addition and subtraction of single-digit numbers that can be occasionally matched, you rolled the pin and fired the rest - you didn't know anything. When did you even understand the knowledge of high school?"

Yao Yuan's sophistry skills are more than enough to deal with Jiang Kangkang of this era.

He smiled and said, "That's because the teacher can't teach. I won't go to school anymore. When I come back, I learn everything by myself."

Aunt Jiang was no longer surprised by the skills that Yao Yuan showed, and immediately said, "Your stupid brother is right. The old saying goes, "Your skill is not enough to suppress yourself. You are at home now, and you are idle anyway. I will find out all the textbooks you sent when you were in school. If you have nothing to do, you will read the textbooks. If you don't know, it's just like your sister. If you come back in the evening, ask him again."

Jiang Kangkang said: "I am very upset now. How can I have the heart to see those headaches?"

Aunt Jiang asked: "What are you upset about?"

Jiang Kangkang said: "I can't find a job and eat idle food all day long. How can I not be bothered? Nowadays, there is no use of knowledge at all, so why do I learn that?"

At this time, Yao Yuan said lightly: "You can't say that it's useless now. For example, during the Chinese New Year, many people are very envious of the clothes you and Meimei wear. Because that style can't be bought in the store. The cut book left by my mother was published in the 1950s and others can't do it anymore. However, Aunt Jiang made it because I can draw pictures, and this is the use of knowledge."
