If we can find a livelihood, then we also want to pursue our studies. But the present situation in China doesn't allow for it. There so many new graduates that there aren't enough jobs to go around. Universities haven't been pure learning institutions for a while. If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for extending admissions!

OK. As we part ways, let me tell you two things: first, the materials you're scrutinizing so closely now are ancient texts. They're objects of dead people; you need not follow them too rigidly. Secondly, you should abandon your pride and avoid putting on airs. Doing these things will aid your personal development. OK, young man. We shall meet again in the future!
