CHAPTER XV 8090
At night, Meng Meng was in front of the computer while listening to the interview content in the recorder while sorting out the manuscript, at this time a text message came from the mobile phone: "Hello, is it Meng Meng? It's your phone number given to me by Aunt Wu, I'm Zhu Jiahua, it's nice to meet you!"
Meng Meng picked up her mobile phone and looked at the text messages, thinking that there are still people sending text messages now, but then she thought that maybe this person was more cautious, and sent a text message to ask if the other party was busy and didn't bother, although Meng Meng didn't have any hope for this blind date, but in order to complete the task assigned by her mother, and not make it difficult for the middleman, she still replied very politely, "Hello, I'm Meng Meng, my mother has already told me, and I'm glad to meet you!"
Meng Meng put down his mobile phone and continued to write, but after half an hour, the other party did not react, and knew that another text message came after an hour, "Let me briefly introduce myself first, I am 34 years old this year, and I am an investment manager in an insurance company after graduating from graduate school, I have a car but no house, what about you?"
Meng Meng hates this kind of text messages with strangers the most, the blind date is like a transaction, everyone puts their own conditions on the table and waits for the price to sell, older men and women, especially single men and women living in big cities, either the conditions are too tall and dazzling, or the eyes are always looking at people on the top of their heads, and it is too difficult to find a person who matches them.

"I'm 32 years old, I work as a reporter in the evening newspaper, I don't have a house, a car and no savings. Although Meng Meng was reluctant, he was hindered by the face of the middleman Aunt Wu, so he still replied with a message. In the eyes of others, the profession of a reporter is glamorous, Meng Meng has studied well since she was a child or graduated from a prestigious school, and in the eyes of those relatives and friends in her hometown, she has already reached the peak of her life as a part-time worker. But the actual reporter's salary is really not high, and he usually participates in some press conferences and has some travel expenses, Meng Meng has no concept of financial management, and he spends money lavishly, so he has never had any savings.
After a long time, there was no response, Meng Meng's manuscript was finally written, closed the computer and stretched, at this time her roommate Tian Lili came back, Meng Meng lived in a dilapidated two-bedroom apartment on the edge of the Third Ring Road, she lived in the master bedroom, Tian Lili lived in the second bedroom, living in Beijing The rent is a big expense, so most people will choose to share a house. The two girls have a very tacit understanding, they can bring friends to the house to play on the weekend, but they are resolutely not allowed to bring the opposite sex home.
"Yo, it's early to come back today!" Meng Meng came out of the bedroom in a suspender nightdress to pour water, just as Meng Meng came out to pour water and saw Tian Lili enter the door with a drunken face.
"Hey... It's rare not to work overtime today! The sales side talked about a big order, the boss asked the company's people to go to dinner, I really don't want to go, but I can't help but give the boss face, everyone toasted the boss during the banquet, and I also hurried to drink several glasses with the boss. Tian Lili said as she grabbed the quilt on the table and poured a glass of water. Tian Lili is a post-90s girl, just graduated from college for less than two years, working as a planner in a public relations company, she is very busy with work, she basically has to get home at 10 o'clock every day, and overtime on weekends is commonplace.
For this girl who is almost ten years younger than herself, Meng Meng is very envious, looking at her face full of youth, although she works overtime every day, she is also full of energy, these are all things that Meng Meng has gradually disappeared.
"Sister Meng, what's wrong with you?" Tian Lili found that Meng Meng was a little distracted when she stared at her face.
"I envy you, you can be so full of power every day!" Meng Meng came back to his senses and said with a smile.
"I still envy you! So many people chase you, but you don't like it. Although Tian Lili is young, she usually doesn't dress up, just casually ties a ponytail, and her tall and thin clothes are also very plain.
"You are invincible in youth, as long as you dress up casually, you will look good!" Meng Meng also had a youthful age, at that time, he Tian Lili was almost simple and simple, because she saw that people were also high-end people after working, and she gradually began to dress up out of professional needs, and as she grew older, she became more and more familiar with cars, and more than half of her salary was spent on clothes and cosmetics, or how could she have no house, no car and no deposit.
"I should forget the money I earn, after handing it over to the family every month, it will be enough for me to live, how can I have money to dress up!" Although Tian Lili is a post-90s generation, her family is rural, she is the eldest in the family, and the family planning in the countryside is naturally not so strict, she also has two younger sisters and a younger brother, and the family's life and the money for younger brothers and sisters to go to school in addition to relying on their parents to farm, naturally ask Tian Lili to help make up.
People always say that the post-80s generation has great pressure and responsibility, and the post-90s generation has personality and likes to let go of themselves, but everyone's fate is different, and the trajectory of life is also very different.
