Everybody in the whole town talked about the precious cloth
Everybody in the whole town talked about the precious cloth. At last the emperor wished to see it himself, while it was still on the loom. With a number of courtiers, including the two who had already been there, he went to the two clever swindlers, who now worked as hard as they could, but without using any thread."Is it not magnificent?" said the two old statesmen who had been there before. "Your Majesty must admire the colours and the pattern." And then they pointed to the empty looms, for...
结婚后才知道，这三种人，根本没有结婚能力
以前觉得结了婚，就是两个人，带个孩子，过一辈子。 后来发现两个普通人在一起，关系永远在变，每个小细节，都能影响婚姻质量。 变胖几斤，喝酒晚归。 升职加薪，或是辞职带娃，婚姻的天平，都是在摇摆中保持着平衡。 买个手机你要挑款式，钱还要挑真假，和谁结婚，怎么能一样？ 这三种人，根本没有结婚能力。 1 沟通无能的人 林语堂说过：“所谓美满的婚姻，不过是夫妻彼此迁就和习惯的结果，就像一双鞋，穿久了便变得合脚。” 但很遗憾，真正的磨合不靠时间，靠的是沟通。 沟通无能的婚姻，撑得越久，反而越煎熬。 网上有个帖子说：“前任就是个喜欢回避问题的人，我生气从不安慰，他反倒生我的气。” 两个人相处整整半年，网友知道自己也不是没错。 可是有时候办砸了事情，说了难听的话，男友完全不告诉她，全都要靠自己消化。 耗得时间长了，她只觉得越来越累，对比刚在一起时，总有说不完的话，她更觉得男友不在乎她，嫌她烦。 到分手时，她竟看不出男友任何想法。 回忆起才想到，男友和他爸妈的相处也是这样，老人问他什么，有多着急，他都是默不作声。 很多人真的很难沟通，你觉得他不关心你，他觉得你嫌他没钱。 你说他懒散，他说你嫌他没本...

"Indeed!" said all the courtiers; but they could not see anything,
for there was nothing to be seen.
"Does it please your Majesty now to graciously undress," said
the swindlers, "that we may assist your Majesty in putting on the
new suit before the large looking-glass?"
The emperor undressed, and the swindlers pretended to put the
new suit upon him, one piece after another; and the emperor looked
at himself in the glass from every side.
"How well they look! How well they fit!" said all. "What a
beautiful pattern! What fine colours! That is a magnificent suit of
clothes!"
canopy, which was to be carried in the procession, were ready.
"I am ready," said the emperor. "Does not my suit fit me
marvellously?" Then he turned once more to the looking-glass, that
people should think he admired his garments.
The chamberlains, who were to carry the train, stretched their
hands to the ground as if they lifted up a train, and pretended to
hold something in their hands; they did not like people to know that
they could not see anything.
canopy, and all who saw him in the street and out of the windows
exclaimed: "Indeed, the emperor's new suit is incomparable! What a
long train he has! How well it fits him!" Nobody wished to let
others know he saw nothing, for then he would have been unfit for
his office or too stupid. Never emperor's clothes were more admired.
"But he has nothing on at all," said a little child at last. "Good
heavens! listen to the voice of an innocent child," said the father,
and one whispered to the other what the child had said. "But he has
nothing on at all," cried at last the whole people. That made a deep
impression upon the emperor, for it seemed to him that they were
right; but he thought to himself, "Now I must bear up to the end." And
the chamberlains walked with still greater dignity, as if they carried
the train which did not exist.
