A young man went to a job interview in a big company. The director discovered that the young man's college achievements were excellent. He wondered who paid for the young man's education. The young man told him that his parents did and they worked as clothes cleaners.
The director found that the young man's hands were smooth and perfect. "Have you ever helped your parents wash clothes?" the director asked. "No. My parents always let me study. Besides, my parents can wash clothes faster than me."
The director asked him to go back home and wash his parents' hands. When he got home, he asked his parents to let him clean their hands. His parents felt strange but happy. Then the young man began to clean their hands slowly.
His tears fell as he did that. He found that his parents' hands were so old and pale because of long time in water. There were also so much hurt in their hands. He knew the hurt had much to do with his school fees (学费). After cleaning his parents' hands, the young man quietly washed all the remaining clothes for them.
The next morning, the young man went to the director's office. The director noticed the tears in the young man's eyes. He told the young man that he was accepted.
