Chapter 20: Pretending to be more revealing than filling
Qingyun Town.
A middle-aged man named Ye Dahai in the Kaiyuan Fudi community kept sighing while smoking inferior cigarettes.
"Dahai, didn't you promise me not to smoke again in the future, even if you are anxious about Xiao Xuan's future work and marriage, smoking still can't solve any problems. A gentle-looking middle-aged woman walked over, frowning and persuading her husband.
Although Ye Dahai took off the cigarette in his hand, his brows furrowed even deeper, "Ye Xuan's child has been arrogant since he was a child, and he has always wanted to fight for our old couple and live like a person, so he stayed in the south after graduation to work hard." ”
But how can it be so easy to mix outside, although he is a 958 college student, he just studied the screenwriting major that is difficult to find employment, so that he still can't find a suitable job more than a year after graduation. ”
After a pause, Ye Dahai continued: "This time Ye Xuan came back, we said that we would find him a local girl, and then find a company that could offer a salary to work, although it was said that staying at home would not make a lot of money, at least it would not starve to death, and it would be better than drifting around outside like in the past." ”
Ye Dahai actually didn't say something to his wife.
That is, the son of the old man of the Wang family, who had been in contact with Ye Xuan two months ago, came back, and secretly told him that Ye Xuan was very miserable in Hengdian, not only did he often have a meal but not a meal, but even the rent was completely paid by acquaintances.
After getting this news, Ye Dahai was suddenly depressed in his heart.
His son is one of the few students in the neighborhood who went to a key university, and now some young people who are in junior high school and do business are also like dogs, with buildings, cars and beautiful women, but their sons are still struggling with food and clothing.
Ding Xiu couldn't help but sigh.
The son is a talented person, and he is a high-achieving student, so it is still easy to find an ordinary girl in this small town.
Thinking that her son was careful and arrogant, but in the end he still had to go back to his hometown, talk about a local girl who may have no education and no good looks, and casually find an ordinary company that can offer wages to work, and then grow old step by step, she couldn't help but shake her head.
Son, has he walked around and returned to the starting point?
"Ye Xuan is coming back today, before he goes home, let's go pick up a new car and come back. Today's children like to compare, and in the past they were far less than his companions who had cars and houses, and their sons must not be left behind by those people. We have spent a lot of money cultivating Ye Xuan over the years, and we have no money to buy a house for a while, but we must buy him a car to save face. Ye Dahai still wanted to smoke, but in the end he held back and made a very important decision.
Buying a car is such a big deal for this impoverished family that they even have to give everything they have to do it.
Although Ding Xiu is a thrifty person, she still did not object to her husband's decision, "Xiao Li, who is the same age as Xuan'er next door, bought a car by moving bricks at the construction site, and his parents told us many times that it was useless for their children to go to school. Therefore, after we bought the car, we told outsiders that our son had earned the money he earned and asked us to buy it, so that he would not only have face when he came back, but also have some confidence if he went on a blind date in the future. ”
A few hours later.
Ye Dahai and his wife went to the 4S store to pick up a new Emgrand and returned to the community.
Although some of the 70,000 or 80,000 cars can't be put on the table, they are better than nothing.
After Ye Dahai, the old driver, drove the car back, he immediately put it in the most conspicuous place in the community, and while hanging the big red flower, the faces of the husband and wife were full of proud expressions.
"Ye Xuan's child is now promising, and he is also a director in a film company in the south, with a salary of more than 10,000 yuan per month, so he bought this car in order to travel for me......" Ye Dahai praised his son with a proud face in front of several neighbors passing by.
Ding Xiu, who was not far away, kept nodding her head to the rhythm of her husband's speech.
Acting must first learn to deceive yourself.
Performed for so long.
Even the couple gradually became a little convinced that their son was really making a lot of money outside, so that when they repeatedly said it, they didn't even feel like they were lying in their hearts.
"Ye Zi, this kid is really growing, he only went out for more than a year, bought a car for his parents for 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, and became a big director. It seems that he will definitely take root in the south this time, never come back, and will marry a girl from a big city in the future, and it seems that his marriage does not need to continue. "Aunt Wang next door doesn't rub sand in her eyes.
Her words seemed to praise Ye Xuan, but in fact, they were equivalent to cutting off Ye Xuan's blind date.
It's not that Aunt Wang has a grudge against the Lao Ye family, but she really can't get used to seeing the appearance of this family running out to brag after slapping their swollen faces one by one.
"No, how can a girl from other places be as simple and knowledgeable as our local girl, our Xiaoxuan actually wants to find a partner in his hometown. Ding Xiu blushed and explained.
Regardless of whether Ye Dahai and his wife believed it or not, most of them didn't believe what the couple said anyway.
Some residents in the community thought that their son already had a low-cost car of more than 100,000 yuan, and then looked at the old Ye family's Emgrand with only 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, and an unprecedented sense of superiority arose in their hearts.
At this time, a young man with dyed colorful hair spoke, "As far as I know, as a director in Hengdian, the minimum annual salary is more than four or five hundred thousand, since Ye Xuan is a director, how can he only have 10,000 yuan a month." I think Ye Xuan is either bragging, or he is just an ordinary crew. ”
In Ye Dahai's impression, 10,000 yuan a month is already a lot of income.
After all, in their own small remote county, most people earn a salary of two or three thousand yuan a month.
He really didn't know that the director's salary was so high.
This will be accidentally pretending to be more exposed!
A sturdy sanitation worker uncle said: "The sea is an honest man, and he will never lie to us neighbors, most likely Ye Xuan's child is bragging." He has only graduated for more than a year, how can he achieve such a high position as a director in a film and television company, he has been in a key university for many years, but he has only bought a domestic car worth 70,000 or 80,000 yuan after graduation, which is not as good as my youngest son who works on the construction site. ”
The faces of Ye Dahai and his wife became a little embarrassed.
They used their savings over the years to buy a car in order to make others look up to their son.
But I didn't expect it.
This incident was self-defeating, making his son a joke in the eyes of others.
If this matter spreads, maybe it will affect Ye Xuan's blind date in the future?
But Ye Dahai can't say that the car was bought by the two of them with all their savings, and what he said just now was all bragging.
"Look, the BMW car just came over is a high-end car imported from Germany, I saw it once at an auto show, and it was a luxury car worth more than two million. The young man with the colorful head was quickly attracted by a brand-new BMW that had just driven into the community, and showed an envious expression.
