093 keeps a low profile
Li Wei's house, at the foot of the east mountain of the village, has a small courtyard of red brick houses, which has been repaired for about ten years, and the construction area is about 300 square meters, which is not too old. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On both sides of the wall, there are more than an acre of vegetable fields, and the gate faces the path, connected by patches of rice fields.
Li Wei's parents, Li Cheng and Zhang Xueling, were also sowing peas, cowpeas, and green beans in the vegetable field outside the door; from a distance, they saw a man dressed in black walking from the entrance of the village with a suitcase, and his figure was very familiar.
Li's mother, Zhang Xueling, took a look and said, "Lao Li, you look at that seems to be Xiaowei!" she was very surprised and pointed to the opposite figure to remind Li Cheng, who also felt very similar.
Sure enough, when Li Wei saw them, he quickly ran over and greeted them with a smile: "Dad~Mom~ I'm back! What are you planting? Peas or beans?"
"Xiaowei, you are really a broken child, you don't say a word in advance when you come back, you want to scare your mother to death?" Li's mother asked angrily with surprise and joy, throwing a hoe to help her son carry his luggage home, and Li Cheng followed behind.
Li Wei came back suddenly, his parents were very happy, temporarily left the farm work in the field, pulled his son to ask for warmth, and his mother ordered his father to kill the chicken and cook braised chicken nuggets.
This is Li Wei's favorite dish! My mother, Zhang Xueling, chatted with her son and asked her about the work and life abroad in the past few months, and whether she had encountered any trouble.
Li Wei has the assistance of the [Great Lord System], and he really hasn't encountered any trouble, and has been smooth sailing, but the territory conditions are very poor, and he doesn't even have a beautiful woman.
Of course, you can't tell your parents that Somalia is not a good place after all, a barren land of drought and barrenness, war, poverty, and violence! Pirates are very famous...
I can only continue to flicker: "Well~ very good! We are relatively clean there, the environment is very good, the local people are also very friendly and easy to get along with, and the relationship is good! It's just that the weather is a little hot, often more than 40 degrees~"
My mother didn't doubt it, she was relieved a lot, and told me to pay attention to safety and health, and if you are not used to working and living in Dubai, you can return to China!
Father Li Cheng also agreed, and he was definitely not used to being unfamiliar with life abroad, so he simply went back to Chengdu to work; Li Wei also reached the age of getting married and marrying a wife, so he had to hurry up.
"Xiaowei... Or... You should go back to China, right? Find a job in Rongcheng, save money and start a family with peace of mind, don't worry about Jieran's tuition, your family can afford it!"
Li Cheng sighed, ashamed to suggest that since Li Wei retired from the army, he would afford his younger brother's tuition, at least forty or fifty thousand yuan for two years, and occasionally subsidize the family.
Most of the 20,000 yuan of military discharge and ordinary salary were spent on Li Jieran, but he didn't save any money, he paid too much for this family!
Is Li Wei obligated to pay tuition and fees to his younger brother?
Of course not! Even if he doesn't pay for it, or if he lends it to Li Jieran for free, no one can say anything; in the future, after they get married, they will be two families!
In other words, before he got married, he was a family member, but after he got married, he was just a relative, so why should he pay for the tuition? Li Cheng should have been responsible for these things, and his father should have borne them.
It's a pity that he doesn't have any skills, an honest ordinary farmer uncle, farming, raising pigs, doing odd jobs, and can't afford college tuition, living expenses, pocket money...
However, now that more than two years have passed, the family has saved tens of thousands of savings, enough to pay for his youngest son's tuition, and Li Cheng is unwilling to continue to let Li Wei bear the money.
He also had to save money, buy a house, and get married, and even if his family couldn't support him, he couldn't hold him back! Therefore, he suggested that his family pay for the tuition fees and let Li Wei save his own money.
Of course Li Wei understood, he smiled but did not say anything, he was willing to pay his younger brother's tuition, living expenses, and pocket money, all because the brothers had a good relationship and did not ask for anything in return!
"Dad, whoever pays is the same, you don't have to think about it so complicated, we are a family, and I don't lack this money now, the salary is very high. ”
One year's tuition is nothing more than the money of the bottle Lafite!
In order to help Li Jieran pick up a girl, he transferred him 20,000 yuan at a time, and his living expenses were a cent? Li Wei fooled his parents again, saying that his monthly salary was tens of thousands.
Tens of thousands of dollars a month, this salary is not low!
In the whole Nanshan Village, people who go out to work have never heard of anyone with a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan, and the same is true for college students.
Zhang Xueling heard that the two children of her relatives' family were looking for jobs after graduating from college, but they didn't find them for a few months, and finally entered a small company as clerks with a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan.
Millions of college students graduate every year, but the society needs skilled workers, basic operators, and technical talents who can do it instead of just empty theories!
It is difficult for enterprises to recruit workers, it is difficult for college students to find jobs, the key to the problem is that the school is cheating, the things taught are not practical, it is very difficult to get a high salary, and it is good to find a job.
However, due to the solidification of thinking, many people are still superstitious that they can find a good job after studying in college, especially in Li Wei's hometown, which is an honor!
Looking at Li Jieran and Li Wei, the treatment of the two of them when they returned to the village can be understood that the villagers have a soft spot for universities, and they have completely become a "tool" to glorify their ancestors.
Li Jieran went home for the New Year, it was very beautiful, and the people who went to greet him were at least dozens or hundreds, relatives of seven aunts and eight aunts, and lined up to help introduce his girlfriend.
And Li Wei was far behind, he went home for three days, and only a few relatives and friends came to say hello, all of them were close relatives and neighbors, as well as former classmates.
However, Li Wei is also happy to be idle, he likes to be quiet and leisurely, he hates being surrounded by a bunch of people, and he has to be as polite as possible to socialize, so uncomfortable~
Even if you want to find a girlfriend, you can't go on a blind date!
Three aunts and six mothers-in-law, real intermediaries of prostitution and thieves, all introduced are a group of crooked melons and cracked dates, or empty with good skins, Li Wei wants to find that kind of beautiful, virtuous, smart and clever girl.
Therefore, it is good to keep a low profile, and play quietly at home for two days in a low-key manner, and I have told my parents not to spread the news about my work, so as not to socialize.
Dad thinks so much that there is no point in being a low-key person, and there is no point in comparison! Wouldn't it seem boring, low-level, and even stupid to pretend to show off with the villagers?
However, my mother is a little dissatisfied, her eldest son's income is better than that of her younger son, and he works abroad, and his salary and future are more than Li Jieran's, why is he ignored?
However, it's right to think about it, if the villagers know that Li Wei's monthly salary is tens of thousands, they must be very enthusiastic, but what if they come to borrow money? It's good to keep a low profile!
It's enough to have Li Jieran shine at home, let's make a fortune and make money in a low-key manner, there is no need for people to know; finally being able to go home, Li Wei doesn't want to toss, he just wants to accompany his parents for two days with peace of mind, and take it easy.
Li Wei took out gifts, leather shoes, wallets, cigarettes and alcohol to give to his parents, as well as two Xiaomi smartphones, two sets of high-end custom suits, African rosewood bracelets...
I can't take other pear furniture, beef and mutton, and seafood with me, so I'm going to rent a car tomorrow and find a way to get it back from town and change it to a TV at will.
