The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 870
Parents naturally want to fulfill their daughter's wishes, especially if their children want to go further and study abroad, parents need to support them even more. For this reason, they spend most of their savings to let their daughters study abroad.

For this reason, their financial situation is a bit traumatic, and this is because the elders of both parties are gone when they get married. Although there is no pension, there is no one who can subsidize them, and everything depends on themselves.

The two people depended on each other without any help, and they built the small house bit by bit by themselves. They spent a lot of thought on this, and they had to decorate it by themselves in order to save money, just to save money.

This is because as a teacher, in addition to legal income, generally there is no opportunity to earn extra money.Especially after the private economy was allowed to develop greatly, many people started to do business on their own, and the number of rich people suddenly increased.

The teacher's salary, which looks good at first, is not so much after such a comparison. Some teachers feel that people who buy tea eggs earn more than them, and they feel a little uncomfortable.

Those who received more education are not as good as those who have less education. I really feel very uncomfortable.There used to be a saying: There is a house of gold in the book, why didn't they feel it?
Don't look at teachers who are called gardeners and have many spiritual honors, but they are also the most ordinary people when facing reality, and they will encounter many difficulties in real life.

Naturally, there will also be the problem of insufficient money. As long as there is a gap between people and people, people with flexible brains will decide to go to the sea to make money.

Of course, those who come from teachers will naturally not sell any tea eggs. This is because they have a certain degree of self-knowledge. Don’t think it’s easy to make tea eggs, but there are certain entry standards. Naturally, those who are not good at cooking cannot go.

And as intellectuals, they really want to make money, so naturally they don't follow other people's wisdom, and they do what they are familiar with. In addition, after investigation, it is found that everyone wants to find someone to help their children with their homework.

Although some people have made a lot of money in business, it doesn't mean that they are uneducated and think that their children don't need to ask questions. Therefore, there is a huge market for tutoring classes.

It can be said that this way of earning extra money is very suitable for people who were originally engaged in this industry, and the people who have become rich have also begun to pay attention to education, and everyone wants their children to not lose at the starting line.

After discovering this business opportunity, some people immediately held cram schools privately to earn money, and soon discovered that this kind of money comes in faster, and it didn't take long for them to earn a sum of money, and it was very expensive.

There are many smart people, and once there is one successful person, there will naturally be thousands of imitators. If you want to occupy the largest share of the cake, you must make the cram school you created bigger and stronger.

It is necessary to expand the scale of the cram school. After the scale is large, it is necessary to recruit people, especially if everyone urgently needs that kind of tutor, and the best recruiting target is the in-service teachers of primary and secondary schools.

Because these teachers do not need to be trained again, they can basically start classes when they are invited. I believe that some teachers are willing to work part-time in cram schools during the holidays for a sum of money.

Why don't all the teachers run their own cram schools?That's because not everyone is suitable for doing business. This requires a certain amount of talent, and there is also the issue of the right time, place and people.

Because some people once invited their husband and wife to join, and they were really tempted after receiving the invitation. They wanted to work part-time in this kind of cram school in order to earn money, because it is very good to earn two salaries a month, and the financial pressure is great. reduce.

But when the two of them wanted to work part-time, they hesitated. After looking at the teaching time, they found that there was not enough time. If they went to the training class to work part-time, they also had to prepare lessons specially, and study how to improve students' ability to take the exam.

People's energy is limited, it is impossible to cover everything, and they may not be able to take care of the students in the original school. I am afraid that the time given to my daughter will be even less, which is a bit inappropriate.

As a serious teacher, I know very well that the best place for students to get knowledge is the school, not the cram school. The cram school is only auxiliary, so they, as teachers, should put their energy on themselves.

After thinking about it for a while, the husband and wife finally didn't go to any cram school, and later became the class teacher and found that they really didn't have the energy to do part-time jobs.Because they still have high school students to send, there is no time for tutoring.

The couple felt a little heartbroken when they turned down the invitation, because they felt that they had too little money in their pockets, and even though they worked and worked in school, they felt that the gap between rich and poor was increasing.

And after much deliberation, they have not figured out how to make a fortune. In fact, there are ways to get rich in the criminal law, but they naturally dare not touch the law, and dare not do it at all.

Then there are only two ways for them to increase their legitimate money: increase income and reduce expenditure, and they find that they have no talent for business or investment, and there is no way to increase income at all. The only way is to think about how to reduce expenditure.

The object of throttling does not include daughters. This is because as a husband and wife, they know very well how their children get along, and they will compare each other consciously or unconsciously in their daily life.

And comparison has always been the norm in life. For example, in the early years, too many people were completely hungry, either substituting vegetables for meals, or often hungry. For this reason, go to bed early, do as little activity as possible, and reduce consumption.

Then people who can eat eggs and braised pork every once in a while are the ones everyone envies. It is easier for children of this kind of people to get married, so comparisons between people are very common in life.

Children will have somewhat similar situations in school, for example, everyone has it, but if there are a few or one classmate who doesn't have it, those who don't have it will be excluded to some extent.

Even the teachers can't completely prevent the students from this kind of xenophobic practice, because the teachers can't follow the students all the time, the students will say that they have no common language with those students who don't have anything, and they have nothing to talk to each other.

As teachers, they are well aware of the problem, and yes they can help their daughter not to care too much about other people's opinions, but they also know that it feels bad to be excluded.

Therefore, the husband and wife try their best to keep their daughter's consumption at the same level as that of ordinary classmates, not high, because the family's economic conditions are not up to it, and it cannot be low.

Even gritted his teeth and gave his daughter some big expenses, so that her daughter would not be the one with the worst daily expenses among her classmates. Too simple would attract ridicule from some people.

As parents, they can't be harsh on their daughters, and try hard to let their daughters lead a normal life in school. This is to maintain their daughter's self-esteem.

The husband and wife lived a very simple life. When everyone changed their means of transportation, they still rode bicycles or took buses, and avoided taking taxis as much as possible to save money.

I have always used the most popular ones for food and clothing, and I have never pursued any famous brands, especially luxury brands from abroad. Let alone daily use, I know psychologically that it is impossible.

Although I haven't bought it before, I still know that those big brands, whether it's clothing, bags, watches, jewelry, etc., are super premium products that ordinary people can't afford.

Of course, even if she could afford it, she would not buy it as a wife, because she felt heartache when she saw the price, and the price was too unacceptable for her, and she had to drink northwest wind after buying it.

For example, spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy a luxury bag?Really dare not.To put it bluntly, she was very surprised when she heard the price, such an expensive thing?Just listen to it, if you buy it, you will feel very distressed.

As a diligent and thrifty housekeeper, she is very clear about her own thoughts: even spending hundreds of yuan on a bag is too expensive, not to mention the tens of thousands of consumer prices, it is really unbearable.

In addition to the problem of being expensive, it is also because as a teacher, she has to carry a big bag so that she can put down all kinds of materials. Even if she is given that kind of delicate and expensive big-name bag, she won't need it.

Because the area inside is too small, it can't hold the things that a teacher is carrying.For her, the bag is mainly functional, not as an ornament, let alone a prop for showing off.

Of course, the real users of big-name bags will say: This kind of bag should put less things, at most, put some keys and mobile phones, can it still be stuffed with a roll of papers?

? ? ? ? ?In fact, there is nothing wrong with this statement. They belong to different consumer groups, they are basically two completely different types of consumers, and they have completely different ways of using bags.

As a result, when they buy bags, they basically have nothing in common. One side wants the face, and the other wants practicality. There is no comparison at all.

They may look down on each other, or they may have their own ideas, and they don't care about other people's ideas at all.But from their completely different standpoints, neither of them is wrong.

All in all, the husband and wife will calculate and calculate every money they spend for themselves, try to be decent and cheap, if they can't have both, they will choose cheap and easy to use in the end.

The two work in a middle school. Although there is no part-time job, the country began to adjust salaries later, and the salaries of school teachers are also increasing.

Therefore, colleagues began to switch to faster modes of transportation. For example, cars began to enter thousands of households, but the husband and wife never thought about buying a car.

It's not that I haven't thought about buying a cheaper car, because it will be very convenient to have a car, and it will be better when it is windy and rainy. As a man, I like to drive more.

But before the two people want to buy it, they have to settle an account first: if they want to buy a car, they need to spend a certain amount of money as the purchase price. It is depreciated every day.

Buying it doesn't mean you're done, and you have to spend money all the time: refueling, paying taxes, paying insurance, getting a license plate, and so on. It's too much for two people to calculate.

In the eyes of my daughter, the two Grandets saw that they would cost so much money, so she gave up the idea of ​​buying a car and used a bicycle instead!Totally green and eco-friendly.

The original owner's grandfather and his wife saved money bit by bit, because although they bought a house, their daughter was still studying and getting married, so they needed to save money little by little.

Letting their daughter go to study abroad is the money they can take out, which belongs to most of their savings over the years. It can be said that the whole family will do their best to let their daughter study abroad.

You must know that those savings are purely accumulated by the husband and wife little by little. Every time the salary is paid, the two of them will make a special plan, and each item must be prepared in advance.

Not spending all of the money, but taking part of it as savings, this is the kind of thinking of ordinary people, and it is precisely because of this that they have money to support their daughters to study abroad.

You must know that many people who study abroad cannot afford a sum of money at all, including their families, and many of them are studying with loans. For this reason, they have to repay the loan for more than ten years after graduation.

It can be said that as parents, they really worked hard and gave everything they could to their daughter, but they never got her daughter's approval or understanding, and she didn't leave a message when she left.

After the original owner got these facts from the information, he felt sorry for the grandfather and his wife. What the mother didn't want was exactly what she, a daughter, wanted to get.There is a saying that can describe this situation: A is honey, B is arsenic.

At the same time, she had to admit that her mother's luck was good: before marriage, there was a pair of parents who cared about her very much, and they were willing to spend money for her, and gave her a certain foundation.

The experience of studying abroad allowed her to quickly find conversations with foreigners, and she also found a husband. Although the husband she found was a bit older, she was still a good person. You must know that many women who immigrated through marriage met It's a domestic violence man, and there are some who die badly.

There are even some people who use their identities just for fun, and have no intention of formally getting married at all.There are even people who simply regard marriage as a kind of business, collect money once for each marriage, and specialize in the business of immigration.

Many people spent money, life, and health for this. The original owner had to think that his mother was lucky. Instead of meeting those kinds of people, he met his father.

The original owner still remembered his father, he was actually a very witty person, his figure was kept in good shape because he had been paying attention to exercise, and his mother fell in love with that man at first sight, and followed him away.

Of course, from the woman's point of view, my father wasn't a very good husband either. After all, he was still wandering around after marriage, and the husband and wife became more companions for each other later on.

If they had ever been in love, then the love hormones between them had disappeared long ago, and it was more because of the two daughters that they did not separate.

The original owner didn't know what to say to the two old people when he thought of this, but Ling Xiao didn't say anything, because this was the original owner's family matter, but Ling Xiao really wanted to ask what the mother thought?

At the beginning, her parents worked hard to earn money, so that they neglected her as a daughter in life, which caused this girl to rebel from high school and marry a foreigner after receiving higher education.

In other words, she always felt that her parents were incompetent as parents, so how would she be a mother when she became a mother?Are you doing well?

Her attitude towards the two daughters is different, completely unequal, and even treats her eldest daughter as an enemy, not as good as her parents, so she still has the face to blame her parents?
But because she was already dead, it was impossible to ask any more questions, and Ling Xiao was even reluctant to mention it because of the original owner. Some people were just too shallow.

The two old men were a little surprised to see the original owner. Speaking of which, they had retired for ten years and had not been class teachers for longer, so most of the students who came to see them were middle-aged.

This person is obviously not middle-aged, no matter how you look at it, he will not exceed 20 years old, he is too young, and he looks really fresh. The smile on this child's face makes them feel warm in their hearts.

They are quite old and can feel the kindness of each other. At this moment, they can't remember whether they have taught this child, but they don't know why they feel that this little girl is familiar.

This is how the same thing?At this moment, they changed their minds: Maybe they have taught too many students, and they can't remember it, but they still have some impressions, so they feel familiar?its not right!Wrong age.

Or is it a possibility that the daughter's former friend's child was ordered to see them?Because they have met her mother, they will feel a little familiar.

Why!The two old people felt a little depressed when they thought of this at the same time. At their age, they knew that a child with a kind heart is a good child, and a kind-hearted person will not disappear suddenly.what!Don't think about it anymore, without a daughter, the two old ones will support each other to live.

As for the daughter?Both of them felt a little stuffy in their hearts and couldn't think about it anymore.It hurts to think too much, and they didn't know how she was in these years.

Although they neglected their daughter's thoughts when they were parents, they definitely gave everything they could, and they couldn't give more because they didn't have the ability.
