Chapter 76: Choice
Why?
Why don't you go back to your family in a small city and live a peaceful life, and choose to go alone in the metropolis?
This is a question that many young people who are struggling in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou will always be asked.
Most of them can choose to go back to their hometowns, to go back to small cities to live a life that looks petty bourgeoisie, and live a life that is good in the eyes of their parents and elders, why not?
There are thousands of answers, and everyone can even find five or six reasons why they must stay in the big city, but one of them must be answered: I don't want to live a mediocre life.
This answer is ambiguous, because living in a small city is not the same as mediocrity, in fact, it should be said that in a big city, they can live a hotter, more enthusiastic, busier, and more brilliant life.
One of Ning Xueqing's answers also has this one.
Although it was only a year since she came to the Demon Capital from Jiangcheng.
But she found that the magic capital was far superior to Jiang Cheng in all aspects, which broadened her narrow horizons, and although she was very tired of living here, she lived an extraordinarily fulfilling life.
A year has slowly worn away the feeling of being out of place when she first arrived in the Demon Capital, and Ning Xueqing is now feeling that she is gradually integrating into the city.
What is she going to do when she returns to Jiangcheng now?
Is it really because her brother is rich that she eats and waits for death, eating, drinking and having fun for a lifetime?
Ning Xueqing also wanted to practice dancing with the members of her group, and she was really happy when she sweated like rain.
She also wanted to try to stand on stage and perform, and although they hadn't performed a few times, the applause and screams from the audience really made it hard for her to forget.
There are still a lot of things she wants to do, but she needs to stay in the magic capital to do them.
So Ning Xueqing wants to stay in the Demon Capital, and now she needs to convince the second aunt and Zhang Xiaojian, which is not an easy task.
"No!" the second aunt's attitude was still resolute.
In her opinion, in the past, Ning Xueqing wanted to create a career in a big city, and she must have the idea of improving her family's life after getting ahead.
But now it is completely unnecessary, because the material conditions of the family seem to be able to lead the world in strict terms.
Whether it's a house, a car, a luxury item, or cosmetics, you can have anything you want, even what you don't want.
So why stay here alone?
Ning Xueqing pursed her lips, and instead of repeating the words that she would always blurt out when she quarreled with her second aunt before, she said, "Mom, in this world, everyone is an individual, and only you know what you want." ”
"It's not what you think is a good life, it's really my good life. ”
"It's not the peace and joy you think, but if you put it on me, I can really be happy every day. ”
After these words blurted out, a pin drop could be heard in the huge luxurious hall.
The second aunt is still very difficult to understand, isn't it happy to go home and be by her side? Isn't it happy to live a peaceful and stable life?
Zhang Xiaojian didn't quite understand it, but looking at Ning Xueqing's determined expression, he inexplicably felt that his sister had really grown up, and he didn't have time to think about the specific reason.
It wasn't until Ning Xueqing said something again that Zhang Xiaojian finally understood.
When she said this, Ning Xueqing looked at her second aunt's frowning expression, and said very calmly: "Mom, I know that you think it's not reliable for me to stay here and do a girl group." ”
The second aunt raised her eyebrows: "You also know that it is unreliable." ”
Ning Xueqing replied: "However, this matter is just like when my brother and I wanted to go out to set up a stall when we were young. ”
The second aunt frowned even more, not understanding what Ning Xueqing was going to say at all.
Because in her impression, Zhang Xiaojian and Ning Xueqing were failures in this matter.
Many, many years ago, Zhang Xiaojian and Ning Xueqing, who were not very old, wanted to make money to supplement their families because their families were poor.
In Jiangcheng, every Dragon Boat Festival, the young people of the whole city will come to the riverside to go green, Zhang Xiaojian and Ning Xueqing decided to put on some balloons to sell.
But it was not the right time, many young people thought the same way that year, and they could make money while playing, why not? This naturally led to more people selling goods than buying goods, and Zhang Xiaojian and Ning Xueqing lost money.
The second aunt taught these two children a lesson as a matter of course, for example, I told you a long time ago, I eat more salt than you walk, I don't listen to the old man and suffer in front of me, I really don't hit the south wall and don't look back...
Zhang Xiaojian also remembered this incident vividly, so he had no idea of making any petty deals in his life since then.
He looked at his sister, waiting for her next sentence.
Ning Xueqing said softly: "Brother, we lost two hundred and thirty-two that year, and more than two hundred was a huge amount of money at that time." ”
Zhang Xiaojian smiled: "Yes, later, those balloons were hung on the side of the street by the second aunt after work, and they were thrown out without making a penny. ”
Ning Xueqing shook her head and said, "Mom, what I talked to the two of us the most after that was, [Obedient Mom is from here. 】”
Speaking of this, she looked at her second aunt's eyes, and said softly but in a questioning tone: "But Mom, you are forty-six this year, and I am twenty, how can I get over?"
"I've really passed, why am I going to go for the twenty-six years in between?"
In the end, Ning Xueqing was stunned and said resolutely: "Mom, I just want to hit the south wall." ”
——————
Young people should have a young man's way to go, no matter what the choice is, whether the head is hit or not, the key lies in the scenery on the road.
Ning Xueqing's words made all Zhang Xiaojian's determination to take his sister home before he came collapsed at this moment, and he said to his second aunt: "Grown up." ”
The second aunt looked at Ning Xueqing and didn't know what she was thinking.
Zhang Xiaojian continued: "Second aunt, strictly speaking, I am actually Xueqing's elder, although you are a generation higher than me, we are all her elders. ”
"How?"
Zhang Xiaojian held the second aunt's hand and said: "Second aunt, let's not do that kind of sneering at the child's dream, sneering at the child will not succeed, sneering at the elders who can only make a difference if the child stays by his side, okay?"
The second aunt was stunned, yes, didn't she marry Lao Ning despite the opposition of her family when she was young? Why did she become the elder she hated the most at that time after she had a child?
After a moment of silence, the old man let out a breath and finally replied, "Okay." ”
Ning Xueqing's pupils dilated, and her overjoyed expression was beyond words.
Zhang Xiaojian thought about it again and said, "It's okay to stay here, but there are a few problems that must be solved." ”
"What's the problem?"
Zhang Xiaojian snapped a finger: "You have to buy a house here, the dormitory is not good, the conditions should be very poor." ”
"Brother, why do you talk like reading RAP, it's quite rhyming. ”
Zhang Xiaojian ignored her and picked up the second finger: "The traffic in the magic capital is a problem, you have to buy a car and hire a female driver to make it easier for you to go out." ”
Ning Xueqing was helpless: "Brother, don't make trouble." ”
Zhang Xiaojian snapped his third finger: "Also, what to eat, can't you order takeout, hire a chef?" No, he can't guarantee hygiene alone, or I will contract your company's canteen, and the professional team of the five-star hotel will check it at that time." ”
Ning Xueqing begged for mercy: "Brother~~~!!~~!"
"The most important thing is that I also get to meet the boss of your company. ”
When Zhang Xiaojian said this, he remembered that his future sister would have to live alone in this big city, and he couldn't help but feel distressed, and couldn't help but add: "You must work hard, if the girl group doesn't do well, you will come back to inherit tens of billions of family assets." ”
