你看人家王老师,刚来这儿工作三年就当了教授,还有个好妻子,真让人羡慕! 其实,你在别人眼中也是很幸福的,只是你自己没有发现。 是吗?我哪能跟王老师比啊? 你有一个漂亮的女儿,还那么优秀,硕士毕业后就当了翻译。 我女儿确实不错,记得她刚拿到第一个月工资时,就兴奋地拉着我和她爸俩去商场,给我们买礼物,那时我和她爸心里别提多美了! 所以说每个人有每个人的生活,不用羡慕别人。你羡慕别人的时候,他们可能也正在羡慕你呢。

Look at Teacher Wang: he came here to work only three years ago and already became a professor, and he even has a good wife. It really makes people envious! Actually, in other people's eyes, you are also very happy; you just haven't realized it. Really? How could I compare with Teacher Wang? You have a beautiful daughter, and she is so outstanding; after graduating with a master's degree, she became a translator. My daughter is indeed very good. I remember when she had just received her first month's salary, she excitedly pulled the two of us (me and her dad) to the mall to buy us gifts, and at that time we couldn't have been happier! So everyone has their own life; you don't need to envy others. When you envy others, they might also be envying you.
