They looked down on people who were born like them, on people who wore very rustic clothes and cheap street goods, and even on their parents.
Haha.
This kind of person seemed to really think that they were noble and that they were people with status.
What was their identity?
Was their identity something worth showing off?
One was a hard-working farmer planting seeds, and the other was an important leader. Was there a difference between them?
They just had different jobs and responsibilities, but their roots were actually the same.
Humans should not differentiate between high and low. No one was born lowly, and no one was born luxurious.
That was the saying of the old era. In the present and the current era, the Chinese people had never been of high or low status. Everyone was the same. They were all people.
However, the difference was that the more capable a person was, the more they would be respected and worthy of respect. Others mistakenly thought that this was one’s so-called identity. In reality, it came from the respect of others.
Important leaders would be respected by the people. Farmers who worked hard to sow seeds would also be respected by the people. Healthy people could do it, but so could disabled people.
Respect was not differentiated between high and low status. It was equal.
Only those bad people were not worthy of respect. Other than those unscrupulous merchants and sinister animals who harmed others, everyone else was worthy of respect.
There were also those who did not respect others and were not worthy of respect. Praising others was equivalent to praising oneself. Respecting others was equivalent to respecting oneself. It was the same principle when one slandered and hurt others. They could not learn to treat others equally, so how could they expect others to treat them equally?
Wouldn’t that be a joke?
Thus, when looking at jokes who thought that they were better than others, one had to maintain a joking attitude to face their joke-like attitude. In the end, they just had to laugh it off.
People who did not know ethics and morals were actually no different from animals. The difference between animals and humans was that humans understood right and wrong, gratitude, and the ways of the world.
They had painstakingly cultivated the fortune to become a human, but they actually lived like an animal. To be honest, such a person should return to the path of an animal and continue to be an animal. They would be more proficient in their business.
Eight abalones was quite a lot. After eating two abalones each, Second Sister Ye Ying and her best friend, Sun Yi, consciously stopped eating. Then, they took a piece of paper and wiped their mouths. They picked up the fruit juice and took a small sip, waiting for the next dishes to be served.
There were still two dishes left. If they ate their fill now, they would not be able to enjoy the delicious food after this.
Therefore, the two of them still understood very well and ended their meal early.
After a while, the attendant came in and brought over a third dish of stir-fried sea cucumber noodles.
There was a large plate of sea cucumber stir-fried noodles. The thin noodles were handmade and were stir-fried. There were many sea cucumbers on it.
There was also sauce placed on another plate. It looked like it needed to be stirred together.
As expected, as soon as the beautiful attendant put down the dishes, she introduced it to them.
“The sauce here can be mixed in the noodles. This way, it will taste even more delicious. If you eat it directly, the noodles will have no taste.”
Second Sister Ye Ying and her best friend Sun Yi nodded. Then, they licked their lips and poured the sauce into the noodles before mixing them with sea cucumbers. The fragrance immediately appeared with this stir. Moreover, after stirring, the two of them discovered some specially roasted onion juice at the bottom of the noodles.
The moment the onion juice was mixed with the sauce, the taste emerged. The fragrance made their stomachs rumble, and their appetites were simply whetted.
Hence, each of them picked up a piece of sea cucumber and placed it in a bowl. They ate it with the soft sea cucumber. It was really fragrant.
Previously, they had only eaten appetizers. Now, they were eating a main dish. The noodles were very delicious and tasty. The aftertaste was endless. The sea cucumber was even more delicious. It was very fresh, beautiful, and delicious.
Second Sister Ye Ying and her best friend, Sun Yi, were overjoyed and enjoyed the taste feast.
They had accidentally eaten too much and felt that their stomachs were a little full. The two of them were so frightened that they hurriedly stopped and took a sip of fruit juice to moisten their throats, afraid that they would not be able to stuff more food after drinking too much.
After all, the Australian lobster was the main course.
However, just as the two of them put down their glasses, the attendant pushed the cart in. On the cart was the Australian lobster that had been cooked.
This big lobster was golden all over and looked very appetizing. Moreover, it smelled very fragrant and could be smelled from afar.
This made Second Sister Ye Ying and her best friend, Sun Yi, have an appetite again. When the lobster was served, they could not wait to eat it.
This time, they did not grab it with their hands. It was rare for such a big lobster to die so they decided to let it die in a dignified manner. They chose to use a knife and a fork, which was a little ritualistic but not too much.
Then, they began to cut it. The golden and crisp surface of the Australian lobster opened, and inside was the white and tender lobster meat. It was full of fragrance. When they placed it in their mouths and ate it, they felt their taste buds sublimate and rise to an extreme.
This taste was really incomparable to any meat. It was simply too delicious.
Moreover, it was soft. It was really heavenly.
This made Second Sister Ye Ying and her best friend, Sun Yi, eat crazily. In the beginning, they still used knives and forks, but towards the end, they started to despise the knives and forks for being too slow. They grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into their mouths. They ate noisily. It was extremely delicious.
After a while, the two of them were full. They let out a long burp and looked at the remaining Australian lobster, the four abalones, and the stir-fried noodles with sea cucumbers in satisfaction. For a moment, the satisfaction on their faces turned into panic.
After all, not leaving anything behind after a meal was a virtue that they had accepted since they were young. Now that they had suddenly broken their vows, they felt a deep sense of guilt, so they were a little flustered.
“What should we do? There’s still so much food.”
Second Sister Ye Ying frowned and spoke. However, her best friend beside her replied indifferently.
“It’s fine. We’ll pack it up. Bring it back for your sister to eat. I won’t be able to finish it even if I bring it back. Moreover, you’re the one treating. Burp~”
Thinking that it did seem appropriate, Second Sister Ye Ying’s frown immediately turned upside down. A smile appeared on her face. Then, she stood up with her phone and spoke.
“Then I’ll go pay the bill and get her to pack the food.”
As she spoke, she walked out. The attendant had been outside the door the entire time, so she had long heard her. She walked in with boxes and smiled.
“I’ll pack it for you now.”
“Thank you~”
Second Sister Ye Ying smiled and thanked her. Then, she came to the front desk and smiled at the cashier.
“Hello, I’ll pay the bill. My surname is Ye.”
