Across the street from the Jobs family lived a man who had become successful as a realestate agent. “He wasn’t that bright,” Jobs recalled, “but he seemed to be making a fortune.So my dad thought, ‘I can do that.’ He worked so hard, I remember. He took these nightclasses, passed the license test, and got into real estate. Then the bottom fell out of the market.” As a result, the family found itself financially strapped for a year or so while Steve was in elementary school. His mother took a job as a bookkeeper for Varian Associates, a company that made scientific instruments, and they took out a second mortgage. One day his fourth-grade teacher asked him, “What is it you don’t understand about the universe?” Jobs replied, “I don’t understand why all of a sudden my dad is so broke.” He was proud that his father never adopted a servile attitude or slick style that may have made him a better salesman. “You had to suck up to people to sell real estate, and he wasn’t good at that and it wasn’t in his nature. I admired him for that.” Paul Jobs went back to being a mechanic.

In the Southern and Northern Dynasties,there was a man named Yuan luxiu in the Northern Qi.He had an old head on young shoulders and had a warm disposition,and he was a man of wide expericence.He started working as an official when he was eighteen years old,and later he was promoted to be the procurater of Boling.He got outstanding achievements in his official career and had a good reputation.He was innocent,upright and incorruptable,and he never accepted bribery,so people prized him an elegant name Qing Lang(清郎).One time,he went to other places to inspect local officials.One of his old friends Xing Shao was a provincial governor in one place,when he came by there,Xing Shao offered him a roll of cloth as a token of friendship.Yuan luxiu declined whith thanks and said,"I come here this time is differnt from other times,ancient people said that never pull on your shoes in a melon patch;never adjust your cap under a plum tree.So I could not accept your gift in odrer not to leave a subject for ridicule." The allusion of "In a melon patch or under a plum tree----in suspicious circumstances or surroundings" originated from The Biography of Yuan Luxiu ----The History of the North.Its original meaning is that we should avoid suspicion in occation that we can be easily involved.There are the words "The backbone of the knight-errant could be clear in suspicious circumstance;and the heart of the man to honor could be seen clearly."in the 6th chapter of Hao Qiu's Biography. ------------originate from "A Collection of Chinese Idioms and Their Stories"
