Chapter 373 is so encouraging
“Azong, do you think Xiuzai is smart?”
That day Lao Dou took Tianxiu to play with calligraphy, and Tianxiu He wrote down his previous confrontation with Lao Dou. After he finished eating, Lao Dou couldn't wait to praise him: "Look at his handwriting, he will definitely become a calligrapher in the future!"
The second sister-in-law also said to the second brother with a happy face: "Husband , I think our son is really a great writer, he is good at picking up lines and writes beautifully.”
At this time. Uncle Guan walked in from outside and said with a smile: "Why is it so lively?"
The second brother looked proud and said: "Writing a couplet, Uncle Guan came to take a look. This is written by Tianxiu. The handwriting is so beautiful."
After hearing this, Uncle Guan stepped forward to observe curiously. The more he looked at it, the more funny he found it, and he said: "The sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening." , Lettuce comes from winter. Hahahaha. What level is this? You are not even at the elementary school level. No, it should be said that it is not even as good as the kindergarten level."
Tianxiu suddenly became sad and sat silently. Go to the sofa next to you. Lao Dou had no choice but to say to Uncle Guan: "Aguan, don't disturb me. You can go first."
Uncle Guan was unwilling to leave. It was a rare opportunity to make fun of Lao Dou. How could he be willing to leave. He said: "Last time I wrote a couplet and you made it worthless. You taught me how Sun Zai wrote this. It really opened my eyes."
He laughed crazily, Although Kang Qirui thought he was right, the truth sometimes hurt people. Then he stepped forward and grabbed Uncle Guan to change the subject and said, "Uncle Guan, did Aunt Guan ask you to borrow onions or garlic?"
Uncle Guan was confused when Kang Qirui asked him this question. He thought for a while and then said: "Yes, yes, she asked me to borrow a wrench."
When the second brother heard what he said, he immediately He said: "Old Dou, hurry up and get Uncle Guan a wrench." He was thinking of sending Uncle Guan away as soon as possible. , after Uncle Guan got the wrench, he said to Lao Dou with unfinished content: "If I hadn't rushed back to fix things, I would have really wanted to slowly appreciate this masterpiece that you taught your grandson."
"Am I bad at writing?" Tianxiu asked dejectedly after Uncle Guan went out.
"Not bad." The second guy comforted him and then found an excuse: "Uncle Guan doesn't know calligraphy. He is jealous of you."
Tianxiu tilted his head and thought about it. Thinking about it, he turned to look at Kang Qirui and said: "Uncle Yao, I remember you are from the Guangfu Calligraphy Association. You must know calligraphy. Tell me, how is my writing?"
"What did I say?" Kang Qirui was stunned. He had not thought of saying this, but the second brother and second sister-in-law next to him gave Kang Qirui a wild wink. He could only say this: "I think Uncle Guan is wrong, you don't want to "Listen to him, how can your handwriting be at kindergarten level?"
It is indeed not at kindergarten level. Who in kindergarten can write calligraphy? At least it’s at the level of a primary school student!
Of course Tianxiu didn’t understand what Kang Qirui said, and thought he was praising him. Just when he was about to laugh, Lao Dou, who saw Uncle Guan out, came back. He sighed as soon as he entered the door. This time he But it would be a huge shame. If Uncle Guan knew about it, it would mean that the whole Changsheng Street knew about it, and others would say that he was poor at writing.
Tianxiu understood everything when he saw Lao Dou’s expression. This still means that he didn't write well. He went back to the room angrily.
He didn't come out until dinner time in the evening. After dinner, everyone was watching TV in the living room, and Ayao was reading a book. It seemed that he would say intentionally or unintentionally: "These are used I really can't understand novels written in Cantonese. Diana, how do you translate these novels written in Cantonese, such as "A Duoduoduo", "A Depressed Heart", "Che Da Pao"?"
Before Diana could say anything, Tianxiu said first, "It's easy. A big car is a carbigpao, a mouthful is a mouthmuchmuch, and a depressed heart is a heart." Before he could finish speaking, Diana interrupted him and said, "Yes. Is that so?" A Yao quickly stopped her and said, "That's right, that's right. Yu Zai, he's a smart kid." It was deliberately said to be a test for him, so naturally Diana would not let Diana "make trouble".
He thought for a while and said: "How about this, Diana, you and Tianxiu play and learn English." It was impossible not to let Diana speak. Yes, I had no choice but to make this decision.
"Okay, fourth aunt, let me test your Chinese-English translation." Tianxiu loves showing off, so he said arrogantly: "How do you translate mamahuhu?"
" mamahuhu ?" Diana thought for a moment and replied: "sloppycarelessly." Sloppy means sloppy. Carelessly means carelessly. In total, it means careless, which is quite different from the meaning of so-so. It can only be said that Diana's Chinese level is not so good that she can fully understand the idioms. If Kang Qirui were to translate it, he would say soso.
"Wrong, it's horsehorsetigertiger." However, Tianxiu's translation was even more outrageous. He only translated every word, but did not translate the meaning of the idiom.
Diana was stunned for a moment, then said helplessly: "Tianxiu, you can't do this. Literally translating word for word is not right at all."
A Yao immediately smoothed things over and said, " Forget it, forget this question. Let’s move on to the next question.”
Tianxiu thought for a while and asked, “Give me some color. How do you translate it?”
“Justwaitandsee.” Diana replied.
Justwaitandsee translates to just wait and see. The meaning is very consistent with giving you some color to see. Kang Qirui nodded beside him. Diana's Chinese level was still acceptable. She could speak ordinary sentences except idioms. But if it was Kang Qirui, he would translate it as kickyourass, kick your ass.
Tianxiu still shook his head and said: "Wrong, it's giveyousomecolourtoseesee." This is a typical Chinese translation, which only translates the superficial meaning, not the actual meaning.
“Ohmygod, if you translate like this, you will never understand English.” Diana was so anxious that she could not understand English. “If you translate like this, you will never learn anything.”
The second brother and second sister-in-law and Ayao winked at her crazily from the side, but she didn't understand and asked directly: "What?"
"Encouragement!" Ayao said.
"Encourage?" Diana was even more confused, "You're encouraging even if you make a mistake? You can't learn anything by studying this way. You can't listen and you can't speak. This won't work. What will he do in the future exams?"< br>
“Confidence.” The second guy said, “Again You said you should give your child confidence and encourage him to study hard. Now if you don’t encourage him, how will he have the confidence to learn? "
