Chapter 209: Urging Marriage
In the next few days, He Yuan kept rushing to his relatives.
Fortunately, after having a car, the trip on this road is much more convenient.
During this period, there were no happy and bullshit incidents.
At least He Yuan's family did not show off to each other and compare with each other.
At most, some people knew that after He Yuan bought the car, he went out to take a few looks, commented on the performance of the car by the way, and then complimented He Jianhua, saying that his son was promising and could buy such a good car.
Whenever this time, He Jianhua put up a straight face and said, "What's the point, you know how to spend money all day long, with this money, it's better to buy a domestic one, it's big to sit on, and it's comfortable to drive", let's la, la, la, la, and so on.
During this period, He Jianhua took a moment to chat with He Yuan alone.
The two fathers and sons hid on the balcony, and habitually, one of them lit a cigarette.
After taking a puff, He Jianhua glanced at He Yuan and frowned: "Smoking is not good for your health, you should smoke less in the future." I see that you used to smoke one or two packs or two, how can you bear it if you smoke like this, and what if you don't have a child in the future. ”
"It's a lot less now, less than one pack a day. He Yuan flicked the ash of his cigarette and said.
Since deciding to quit smoking, He Yuan has begun to consciously control the amount of cigarettes he smokes.
But how to put it, He Yuan has not yet found a reason to quit smoking. He is not a very self-disciplined person in life, and if he doesn't smoke, he can't help but want to do something to kill time.
Tian Rui recommended to him to watch short videos, or play games, or go out to play mahjong...... They were all rejected by He Yuan. Compared with smoking, that kind of entertainment addiction is more harmful, He Yuan didn't want to just come out of the smoke pit, but fell into a bigger pit.
"You can drink a little wine, just don't drink too much, it's better to quit smoking, don't make it like your uncle in the future...... Look at him, he was the one who never left his cigarette at the beginning, and now if you let him smoke, he won't give you a cigarette. He Jianhua said.
"Well, if I get busy in the new year, I'll try to quit smoking. He Yuandao.
Seeing that He Yuan agreed, He Jianhua no longer continued to dwell with him on this issue, and turned to ask other questions: "By the way, what is the situation in that Xiaorui's family?"
When Tian Rui was there before, the family had always been very restrained and did not ask questions.
It was only now that he had time to take time in private, He Jianhua pulled He Yuan aside and began to inquire about the situation of Tian Rui's family.
"It's nothing, it's probably just ......" He Yuan briefly explained the situation of Tian Rui's family.
What he said was basically what Tian Rui told him before.
As for He Yuan himself, he didn't understand it carefully and deeply, and he didn't care very much.
After He Jianhua listened, he squinted his eyes and smoked there.
After a while, he said, "Then does she have any brothers and brothers, sisters and sisters in her family?"
"No, she seems to be an only child. He Yuan recalled.
"That's good. He Jianhua breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong?" He Yuan asked.
"If there are other children in the family, it will be more troublesome. He Jianhua said.
"Huh?" He Yuan looked puzzled, he didn't know yet, when he fell in love, what did it matter if he had brothers and sisters in the other party's family.
"You Uncle Xiong know, right?" He Jianhua asked.
"Well, my dad in elementary school?" He Yuan remembered.
After all, is it a small city, and you will meet a few relatives after walking two steps.
Like Uncle Xiong in He Jianhua's mouth, he is He Yuan's elementary school classmate and his father, and He Jianhua's comrade-in-arms when he was a soldier before.
"His son got married two years ago, and the woman asked for a bride price of 200,000 yuan. He Jianhua said.
"Two hundred thousand, shouldn't it be a lot?" He Yuan scratched his head.
Although He Yuan didn't know how much the bride price was in his hometown, the 200,000 yuan was only his salary income for less than a year. Spending 200,000 yuan to get a daughter-in-law, He Yuan doubts that there is such a good thing in this world.
"What do you think, do you know how much the housing price is here now?" He Jianhua glared at him and said.
"Five or six thousand?" He Yuan thought for a moment and responded.
Originally, in the first half of last year, the housing prices in my hometown were about to exceed 10,000 yuan, but since the second half of the year, housing prices have been falling. Although He Yuan hadn't learned about it carefully, he had also heard Tian Rui mention it.
"Now it's down to more than four thousand, and a slightly older house can be bought for two or three thousand. He Jianhua spat out the smoke ring, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, "Besides, our small place, you think it's in Beijing." The per capita income here is only about two or three thousand, and the kind of supermarket cashier, helper or something, including board and lodging, is only a few hundred yuan a month. ”
He Yuan heard Lu Huihui talk about this matter.
She said that if she provided room and board, an ordinary helper's salary would only be 800 yuan a month.
And the accommodation in the small county town is also very cheap, for a thousand yuan, you can rent a beautifully decorated three-bedroom apartment. If you let others know about the expensive house you rented like He Yuan before, you must feel that he is wronged.
"200,000, save it and have it. He Yuan still didn't think it was difficult, after all, there were so many opportunities to make money these days, even if he couldn't do the Internet, he would suffer a little hard, and run to deliver takeaways, and he would not be more than that point a month.
In the final analysis, the reason why people feel that money is hard to earn is that they are not capable, they don't want to work hard, and they still expect pie to fall from the sky and just smash it into their mouths...... Why don't I hold you to death?
"The woman's family has a younger brother. He Jianhua said lightly.
"Huh?"
"The bride price money was given to her brother, and then her brother got married, and asked them to borrow money, borrowed 100,000 yuan, and has not repaid it yet. A while ago, your Uncle Xiong was sick, and there was no money in the account, so let them pay it back somewhat, but people came directly, this money is all given to her brother, where is there a reason to let your brother pay back the money, and make your Uncle Xiong angry......" He Jianhua shook his head.
"Isn't the bride price money used to buy a house for the newlyweds?" He Yuan blurted out.
I have the impression that my friends who are married around me basically regard the bride price money as a house purchase fund. After all, housing prices are so expensive these days, don't gnaw at the old, don't get money everywhere, this can't afford this housing price.
"Therefore, if there are other children in the family, especially those with older brothers and younger brothers, you must not look for them. He Jianhua extinguished the cigarette butt in the flower bed on the balcony, put his hands in his pockets and said.
He Yuan really doesn't know about this kind of thing.
The circles he came into contact with were basically single children.
And in general, the family conditions are quite good.
Of course, it may also be because He Yuan has not had an in-depth understanding, after all, most people who mix in the workplace will wrap themselves in a glamorous and beautiful way, even if they owe more than 100,000 yuan on their credit cards, they still have to buy the latest bag and use the best Apple mobile phone.
"Xiaorui's family should be fine. He Yuandao.
In fact, He Yuan is not averse to helping his family, just like their family, whoever in the family has an accident, and the other families will reach out and pull a hand. Just like Uncle He Yuan's incident at the beginning, if there was no second uncle to help, the uncle would probably only come out of prison now.
But no matter how you help, there must be a limit, you help me, I help you, there are contacts. is like Uncle Xiong's family, who uses his family's money to get married and buy a house for the other party's younger brother, and he has no money to treat his illness, and the other party still doesn't appreciate it...... This kind of woman really can't be married, at least He Yuan doesn't want to find this kind of woman, no matter how beautiful she is.
Fortunately, when He Yuan went to Tian Rui's house before, he didn't find any brothers and brothers in her. And Tian Rui's parents also look good, very enthusiastic, and never ask He Yuan about this or that.
No wonder He Yuan felt very comfortable when he was with Tian Rui before, it turned out that her family was also like this.
If the family environment is not good, it will also have a great impact on the children's personality. Tian Rui, who grew up in that situation, will definitely not be the person He Yuan is in contact with now.
"What did her parents do?"
"Hydraulic engineering, right? I remember she said before, it seems that she has to run around with the construction team a lot. However, in the past few years, I have retired and retired at home. ”
"Is there a pension, health insurance or something?"
"Yes......" He Yuan hesitated.
He Jianhua asked too carefully, but He Yuan had never understood these things carefully.
"It's okay if you have it, but the most feared thing is that you don't. When this person is older, he is prone to illness, and after a serious illness, no matter how good the family is, it will be dragged down. He Jianhua sighed, seeing He Yuan's disapproving look, He Jianhua straightened his face and said, "Don't underestimate illness, now this illness is precious." Fortunately, we have medical insurance, and we can be reimbursed if we get sick, like that who, you know, because I was sick, I went to the hospital for half a year, and my house was sold, and now I still live in someone else's house. ”
He Jianhua said that it was a neighbor of his grandmother's side, He Yuan used to pass by there when he was a child, and that person gave He Yuan a fruit. But more than ten years have passed, and He Yuan almost forgot about it, and when He Jianhua mentioned it, he remembered it.
Hearing his father say this, He Yuan was in good spirits.
In fact, he didn't know that it was very expensive to get sick these days, like one of his subordinates who had a cold before, when the business was busy, and that subordinate was the main force of that business. However, she had just joined the company at the time and was very poor, so He Yuan bought her two boxes of cold medicine after dinner, hoping that she would get better soon...... As a result, the two boxes of cold medicine cost He Yuan more than 100 yuan.
He Yuan's first reaction at that time was, are cold medicines so expensive now?
When he used to go to school outside, when he had a cold, he went to buy a box of white and black, which seemed to be only a dozen yuan. After eating, lie down in bed and sleep, and the next day it will be almost fine.
After a round of interrogation, He Jianhua learned the information he wanted.
However, He Yuan on the side was confused when he was asked, and he hadn't understood many things in detail.
Is it so troublesome to fall in love now?
I feel so tired of falling in love, He Yuan suddenly doesn't want to fall in love.
"Overall, it's not bad, but her family is rural, which is more troublesome...... By the way, she works in a hotel, right? Go back and see if you want to change jobs, the hotel industry is a bit unstable, or you can ask your brother to see if they have any solutions. He Jianhua said.
He Yuan's eldest son, he contracted a hotel at the foot of the mountain, and he has been doing it for more than 20 years.
"Okay, I'll go back and ask. He Yuandao.
In fact, He Yuan didn't think there was anything stable and unstable about this, after all, there were more people in his hometown who ate on the mountain, and there were hotels everywhere on and off the mountain, saying that they were working, but in fact, it was just a mixed day, and this one would not work and then change it.
"By the way, when are you going to get married?" He Jianhua said again.
"Married?" He Yuan blinked.
"Why, haven't you talked yet?"
"No...... Isn't that a little too fast. He Yuandao.
He was determined that the relationship had not been in place for long, and half a year had not yet arrived.
is about to start talking about marriage so soon, He Yuan feels a little rushed.
"You're not too young, and you'll be twenty-eight when this year is over. By the time your child comes out, he'll be almost thirty. Besides, Xiaorui is about the same age as you, right? If you have a child at the age of thirty, it is not good for your health. What's more, I'm going to retire this time next year, so while I'm still able to walk, I'll help you take care of your children, so you can go to work with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about things at home. He Jianhua said earnestly.
He Yuan's side of their family is generally counted as a real age, not a virtual age.
According to the imaginary age, He Yuan is already twenty-nine, and rounding it up is thirty. Having a child in his thirties, in his hometown, can definitely be regarded as late marriage and late childbearing.
He Yuan was dumbfounded.
Before this, I was still asking about the news of Tian Rui's family, why did I talk about marriage and having children in a blink of an eye?
"This ...... Don't be in such a hurry, right? We're getting along pretty well now, and I want to wait another year or two......" He Yuan said subconsciously.
"Since the conversation is good, let's set the wedding date first. He Jianhua interrupted He Yuandao.
He Yuan still wants to argue on the basis of reason.
Although the relationship between him and Tian Rui has been confirmed, he is still a little psychologically unacceptable that he is going to get married so soon.
After all, the friends around me are going to get married, which one hasn't been talking about for three or five years. The slightly shorter ones, like Yuyu, have also been talked about for at least two years.
He and Tian Rui have been together for less than half a year, and they are about to get married so soon, He Yuan feels that he is just like Peng Peng, a woman in a blind date, and he was immediately knocked out and brought into the marriage room, like a primitive person.
He Yuan couldn't accept it a little.
"We're still young now, and we still have to think about ......work," He Yuan thought of a reason, "Besides, now our work is also unstable, and we don't know where we want to be in the future." We'll ...... when our work stabilizes."
"Work matters, more about it later. He Jianhua interrupted He Yuan again and said, "Start a family and start a family, why do you put starting a family in front, it means that you have to start a family before you can start a business." Your work is work, you get married first, and then you have a child, and the child is brought to us, and you just have to work hard yourself. ”
Although he felt that his father's words were very unreasonable, He Yuan didn't know how to refute them.
"Life is so stressful now, where are you in the mood to have children. He Yuan smiled bitterly.
No, the cost of having a child in this year is high.
A few days ago, Lao Cheng posted a photo of her daughter in the circle of friends, saying that his daughter graduated from a "PHP" course.
He Yuan's first reaction was,, your daughter is so young, she actually started to learn "PHP", do you want to be like her father and engage in the Internet industry?
As a result, I asked Lao Cheng and found out what elementary phonics it was.
Then He Yuan zoomed in on the photo and took a look, and found that the award certificate was all in English......
He Yuan was a little stunned at the time, he remembered that Lao Cheng's daughter had just entered kindergarten. Are kindergarten kids so good now?
Lao Cheng cried to He Yuan before, saying that he would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on his daughter. This is just kindergarten, and when his child is a little older, he doesn't know how much it will cost.
He Yuan doesn't think that his children should be like Lao Cheng, and let their children receive a Beijing-style elite education.
After all, these days, if you spend millions on your child, and when you wait for him to read, you may not be able to earn back these millions.
What's more, according to Lao Cheng's standard, it is no longer a matter of millions, it is estimated that when she grows up, Lao Cheng will spend at least more than 10 million on her.
It is worthy of the people who have more than a dozen suites in Beijing, and they are so atmospheric when they do things.
He Yuan can't compare to Lao Cheng, but under limited conditions, he also hopes that his children can receive a better education. Even if it is not as good as Lao Cheng and them, it is acceptable to be a little worse than them.
This is up to He Yuan to fight by himself.
However, with the current conditions, he felt that he was still a long way from this ideal......
"There is a poor way to live, and a blessed way to live. I told you before that you are already much better than other peers, you are twenty or thirty thousand a month, and your former classmates are only two or three thousand now, what are you not satisfied with?" He Jianhua said, "Don't keep looking at the people above, but also look at the people below." Don't stay up all night, smoke, it's not good for your health, look at your body type, how strong a guy used to be, now fat like this, too fat is not good, you will get a lot of diseases, you should also lose weight, now you are a little overweight. ”
He Yuan actually wanted to say that when he came back last year, he was one hundred and seventy pounds.
After this period of fitness, he has lost weight to more than one hundred and twenty, hovering between one hundred and one hundred and thirteen.
However, compared with the previous one hundred and four, there is indeed a big gap. What's more, He Yuan is a standard fat person who has a fat face first, and the flesh grows on his face, so he looks a little more fleshy than his actual weight.
"What conditions I am, don't you know yet. With my education, if I hadn't worked hard enough, I would have been riding a battery car and delivering food on the street. He Yuan touched his nose and smiled self-deprecatingly.
When he was in school before, He Yuan had no concept of specialty.
They are key schools, and everyone thinks about which good university to go to.
The minimum is to start with two books, what one, heavy books, Hong Kong Chinese University, overseas universities......
It wasn't until the results came out that He Yuan learned that he had only been on the first junior college line, or the second junior college, and suddenly felt that the whole sky had collapsed.
But later, after he came out of school and rose up step by step, He Yuan felt that in fact, his academic qualifications were not very important. Like the employees under him at that time, there were several high-achieving students such as graduate students, and they did not work under one of his junior college students.
And they haven't done a good job yet.
This made He Yuan find a little sense of superiority.
But it wasn't until he entered a larger platform that He Yuan realized the importance of academic qualifications.
Indeed, academic qualifications are not a panacea, and how well you will live in the future depends more on your own efforts than on a paper diploma alone. People who have not graduated from elementary school also have many people who become bosses and make a lot of money.
However, no one will tell you how much effort you can save if you have an extra academic degree.
For example, when He Yuan entered the industry, it was two thousand four months, and he worked for about a year, and he still got up early and worked hard, and finally rose to five or six thousand. As a result, when he shared a house at that time, he had a roommate who had just come out of the School of Finance, and he started with 6,000 yuan, and if he added various subsidies, it would be at least 8,000 or 9,000 a month.
That's it, he also felt that he was low, he said that he mainly didn't like the atmosphere of big companies, like some of his classmates, went to what PetroChina, Sinopec, the basic salary is 8,000 up, all kinds of benefits are so good that they explode, and they will be sent directly to Apple mobile phones and Apple computers during the holidays, and the moon cake coupons during the Mid-Autumn Festival are thousands.
If you join some large companies, you can get a monthly salary of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a year.
Again, it doesn't take much effort.
At least there is no need to be like He Yuan, who can only sleep four hours a day when he gets up early and is greedy for darkness, so busy that he doesn't even have sex.
And the ceiling of their workplace is much higher than He Yuan.
In the case of He Yuan, in a large company, an annual salary of 300,000 yuan is basically over. In the follow-up, if you boil your qualifications and performance, you may be able to get a 500,000 yuan. And those who come out of the capital, with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, are only the middle class of the family.
For example, in a department upstairs from He Yuan, there is a Bai Fumei who has returned from overseas as the editor-in-chief, with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, and this can only be regarded as a middle-level management in the entire company......
This is still the basic salary, and there is no commission, if the commission is added, it will be millions a year.
Many times, a person who works hard in the present moment does not receive results in the present.
It's like He Yuan worked hard there when he took two thousand four, but he couldn't see results.
But, what about after a while?
If He Yuan hadn't worked hard at the beginning, would he have been able to get a monthly salary of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan later?
Similarly, if those students who came out of school did not work hard in school that year, can they get such a high salary after they come out?
He Yuan had already missed many opportunities, and he didn't want to miss the next ones.
All he knew was that his efforts today were just so that he would not say later, "If I had ...... ...... now."
If I had bought a house then, I wouldn't have had to work so hard now.
If I had studied a little better at that time, I would have a higher salary now.
If I had worked my way up, I'm still a senior management ......
He Yuan doesn't want to recall the past, he just wants to seize the present.
Children who don't have an umbrella must learn to run hard.
