127 Small Changes
How should we determine a news focus that really triggers a discussion craze?
There are countless ways to go, but it is certain that you can hear the host's talk in the morning news of "Good Morning America" or "Today's Show", which is one of them.
And it is even more incredible to be able to reach such a level in an NCAA regular season game.
But obviously, Lu Jiayan didn't want to learn about Lu Yiqi's news from any means, let alone such forced news indoctrination. He glared at Jiang Wenjin with anger and expressed his protest silently.
But Jiang Wenjin was completely out of the restraint she had just now, with a calm face, and even broke half of the fried dough sticks, handed over the other half, and asked with her eyes: Do you want it?
This touched Lu Jiayan's sensitive nerves. He put down the chopsticks with a "bang", blocking his chest in one breath and unable to clear it. "... Are you still talking to him? You know that this matter cannot see the future, but now it is just..."
"But isn't a breakthrough now?" Jiang Wenjin directly interrupted Lu Jiayan's words and hit back without showing any weakness. "Look, even 'Good Morning America' has reported it. This is a national program with a rating of at least three million. Moreover, 'World Daily' has also given the front page, which is also a national newspaper."
"Aqi finally made it through his own efforts. He finally achieved some results, but he couldn't celebrate with us. How do you think he felt?" Jiang Wenjin's temper also rose and she put down the chopsticks in her hand. "Do you know what Aqi said in the text message to me yesterday?"
Lu Jiayan avoided his eyes.
"Mom, I won." Jiang Wenjin's voice couldn't help but choke slightly, "Aqi has been working hard all the time, and he also hopes that he can succeed, and he has never asked for our help. Can't we even give him the most basic little support?"
"No!" Lu Jiayan said firmly, "You know that this matter will not be a result. He will be bloody when he collides, and he will be forced to the point of nowhere. This is the movement of the Americans. No one wants to see an Asian face messing around. Don't you know?"
"If Archie is smart enough, he should leave there early and come back to find a job. The World Journal has been recruiting reporters, right? He can find a stable job without having to go there and be discrimination, buy an apartment, and get married early, isn't it good? Is my idea wrong?"
"Look at him, he will be twenty-nine years old in two months, but he is still single, without a girlfriend, and no date, so his life cannot be settled. Are you sure you still have to support him? Don't you want to hold your grandson? Do you think I feel good when I see him suffering there? I just hope he can live a peaceful life."
As he spoke, Lu Jiayan became excited, and his mouth was splashing with his dissatisfaction and depression, and then he couldn't help but think of his son's stubbornness and stubbornness.
"It's all because of you. If you hadn't been secretly encouraging him, how could he not listen to this?" Lu Jiayan remembered what Jiang Wenjin said about "SMS", but he felt angry. According to him, they should have completely cut off contact. When Lu Yiqi suffered all the hardships, he would come back.
Jiang Wenjin didn't buy it at all, "Don't you know who Archie's temper looks like? He is stubborn and can't even pull back the nine-headed cows? You are stubborn and he is stubborn, and then I was caught in the middle. What do you want me to do? Do you throw your son away completely like this?"
Bang bang bang bang!
The sound of knocking on the wall interrupted the quarrel between Lu Jiayan and Jiang Wenjin gradually rising, and then a muffled shout came, "Don't quarrel early in the morning."
To be precise, this is true for houses in New York - including the Flushing area, the walls are thinner than paper, and a little movement may allow neighbors to join in. Even the snoring at night can play a symphony one after another, which is a great wonder.
The voice of the neighbor next door made Lu Jiayan and Jiang Wenjin silent, and then Jiang Wenjin picked up the chopsticks again and stuffed breakfast into his mouth with some anger.
Since Lu Yiqi graduated from university, he chose to become a professional coach, similar quarrels have never stopped and they have to come every few days.
At first, Lu Jiayan and Jiang Wenjin took turns arguing with Lu Yiqi, trying to convince his son to change his mind, but he tried all kinds of communication methods, but he still failed to change the situation, and eventually turned into a long cold war.
On Thanksgiving Day two years ago, Jiang Wenjin cheated Lu Yiqi from school on the grounds that he was unwell and needed to be hospitalized. After Lu Yiqi took leave and returned home, he was greeted with a blind date. This "deception" really hurt Lu Yiqi's heart. After he completed the blind date, he left New York.
When Lu Yiqi turned and left, Jiang Wenjin realized that he had hurt his son and used his trust to set up a scam. But it was too late.
In the same year, Lu Jiayan announced that he would "sweep Lu Yiqi out" and prohibit him from going home again. After that, Lu Yiqi had not returned for two consecutive Lunar New Years.
After that, the differences between Jiang Wenjin and Lu Jiayan gradually began to breed.
Facing his wife, Lu Jiayan was also helpless. He turned his head and pointed to the TV, "You know, this is very troublesome. The more successful he achieves, the more he cannot give up."
"Aqi is a smart man. When facing failure, he is always able to make the right choices after making the right choices; but such a short-term small success will only blind him to his eyes and create an illusion, and then refuse to accept reality, thinking that he can really do it. He has a perfect education and he should not waste it casually."
Lu Jiayan still did not change his mind. He did not think that professional coaching is a job, and like professional players, he could not see any future.
But after today, Jiang Wenjin couldn't help but ignite a small hope, "But what if he really did it?"
"You know this is impossible." Lu Jiayan said firmly, "We have lived here for more than 20 years. Just yesterday, Mrs. Leno, who came to our store every day, still assumed that I couldn't speak English. This is still New York, and it claims to be the most inclusive city in the world. Now Archie wants to squeeze out her head in the first sport that Americans like most. Do you think it's possible?"
After letting out a long breath, Lu Jiayan whispered, "I just hope he won't be hurt and live a peaceful life. Is there anything wrong with this?"
After saying that, neither Lu Jiayan nor Jiang Wenjin continued to speak, and both of them seemed a little tired.
On the TV, the program "Good Morning America" is still spreading joy and happiness, opening a new day for Americans.
