Chapter 179 Common Language
"What else can I say? We're just not confident! Western-centrism is rampant." Lin Jingzhe said with deep eyes, and added with emotion, "But in the past few hundred years, the West has indeed been strong. Human nature is to admire strength!"
"There is no solution to this problem right now." Father Lin said with deep emotion.
"Mom, have you seen Chaplin's movie Modern Times?" Lin Jingzhe said, holding the phone.
"I've seen it, it's quite funny." Lin's mother recalled, "It's mechanical, repetitive tightening of screws, and in the end everything looks like a nut, so you want to tighten it."
"That's because capitalists don't treat people as human beings. Ordinary people are just cogs in society. When you're no longer useful, it's only natural to throw you out and replace you with a new one." Lin Jingzhe snorted. "The West always says we're servile, but we've been shouting for two thousand years: 'Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different races?' We've used violent means to overthrow the powerful. Has the West ever heard of an uprising?"
"It seems not." Father Lin recalled carefully.
"In the West, the nobility is passed down from father to son, from son to grandson, from generation to generation. It's a family empire! They prioritize bloodlines, preferring close relatives marrying and having children with problems rather than marrying ordinary people." Lin Jingzhe snorted, "Our nobility has long been swept into the dustbin of history."
"That's true. There are many aristocratic cousins in Europe." Mother Lin nodded when she heard this.
"The Americans have never treated their citizens as human beings, nor have they considered them a labor force. They are useless and a burden, so they should just fend for themselves." Lin Jingzhe said with a sharp look in his eyes. "The Americans don't make money from their own people, they suck blood from the whole world."
"Every once in a while, the dollar surges, reaping the fruits of others' development." Father Lin said with deep understanding, "It's a bloodthirsty sickle!"
"Right! And then they give the leftovers to the people at the bottom of society, like they're raising waste. The homeless don't live long, so if they die, they die!" Lin Jingzhe said coldly. "Anyway, we can just migrate en masse, so there's no shortage of people. It doesn't matter if they're rich or poor," he said mercilessly. "We can squeeze out all their value at any time and then treat them as discarded garbage."
"What you said is too horrifying!" Lin's mother swallowed and said.
"Go to the slums and you'll find out." Lin Jingzhe's dark pupils turned as he said, "You can just pay to find out. Don't go there. I'm afraid you won't be able to get out once you go in."
"Nannan is right, don't go." Father Lin slowly put away the smile on his face and said to his lover.
"What am I going to do there? I know that the security in the slums is bad. Poverty breeds evil." Mother Lin said, looking directly at the child's father with her starry eyes.
Lin Jingzhe said with a deep gaze, "How can I not be on guard against you! Those who are not of my kind must have different hearts."
"Aren't we talking about peace and development now? Is it okay for you to say that?" Lin's mother asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"This world isn't peaceful at all," Lin Jingzhe said, his eyes frozen in frost. "Even if it were peaceful, how could the Americans profit from the war?"
"That's right. The Americans made their fortunes from war." Lin's mother nodded thoughtfully. "I say, why are you so concerned about current affairs?"
"Economy and politics are inseparable." Lin Jingzhe said calmly.
"Isn't globalization being advocated now?" Mother Lin blinked and said to her lover.
"Advocating globalization does not prevent the Americans from causing chaos! There is no conflict." Lin's father's voice clearly reached Lin Jingzhe's ears.
"Mom, let Dad talk to you!" Lin Jingzhe said with a smile, "It will increase the topics of conversation between husband and wife, so that we can have a common language and make progress together."
"This child! What is he talking about?" Lin's mother said embarrassedly with blushing cheeks.
"I'm dead!" Lin Jingzhe said lightly.
"We'll go back tomorrow." Father Lin said with a smile in his dark eyes.
"What about Weiwei? School is about to start!" Lin Jingzhe said gently.
"Yes! Your mother plans to take her to Hong Kong to play and go shopping." Father Lin said with a smile, "Is there anything you like? Ask your mother to buy it for you."
"No, no." Lin Jingzhe said hurriedly, "Really, no, I don't need anything."
"Your brother really said it right." Mother Lin said with a smile when she heard it.
"What did my brother say?" Lin Jingzhe looked up at the starry sky and said.
"Your brother said you don't like Hong Kong..." Lin's mother relayed her son's words to her.
Hearing this, Lin Jingzhe smiled charmingly and said, "Brother is right, don't buy anything for me!"
"I won't buy it for you, okay? Weiwei and I are going there to broaden our horizons and travel." Mother Lin said with gentle eyes.
"That's fun, take more photos." Lin Jingzhe said with a smile.
"You said you were busier than your dad. It would be great if you could go with us." Mother Lin said regretfully.
"I've been there many times." Lin Jingzhe paced and said, "Have fun."
"Good night, go to bed early." Father Lin said with a smile.
"Good night, bye." Lin Jingzhe hung up the phone after hearing the beep.

Mother Lin took the notebook and said, "Let me check how strong MacArthur's background is." After she finished, her eyes widened as she looked at her lover and said, "With this level of command, he's a five-star general and ranked first among the famous generals in World War II. He wouldn't even want to carry our shoes."
"Haha..." Father Lin laughed heartily.
"What are you laughing at? How come I was wrong?" Lin's mother said in confusion because of his laughter.
"I'm laughing at you. The West often boasts about famous generals from World War II, but they don't even consider us," Lin's father snorted. "Yet Mai Paopao, the most famous general from World War II, was defeated by our General Peng. Because he lost the war, he also lost the presidency."
"You won't take us to play?" Lin's mother looked at him puzzledly.
"Many Western scholars don't admit that we were part of World War II." Father Lin said with a slightly cold look in his eyes.
"Why is that? It seems like all our fourteen years of fighting were in vain." Lin's mother's face immediately drooped and she said angrily.
"The Second World War was an industrialized country versus an industrialized country," Father Lin said, looking at her with his dark eyes. "Our Eastern battlefield was a backward and barbaric massacre."
"What kind of excuse is that?" Lin's mother cursed angrily, "That's bullshit."
"This is reality." Father Lin looked at her with dim eyes and said helplessly, "The devil still refuses to admit it! He still worships the ghost toilet!"
"Eat a few more mushroom bullets and he'll be obedient." Mother Lin snorted coldly and said murderously.
"Haha...you are so cute." Father Lin looked at her with deep affection in his pure black eyes.
"Go!" Lin's mother said embarrassedly with red cheeks.
"Ding-ling-ling..." The cell phone rang, breaking the moment when the two people only had eyes for each other.
"Who is so annoying?" Lin's mother said coquettishly, "Hurry and answer the phone."
Father Lin coughed twice and picked up the phone.
