Seeing that Jojo's father was on the verge of exploding, I quickly invited him into the house and led him to a room. It's a study. Basically, I'm not much of a scholar, and the study at home isn't very useful, but it's a good place to talk about something.

After Qiaoqiao's father sat down, he took a few deep breaths to stabilize his mood a little, but his face was still ugly. He stared at me and said, "Chen Yang, what is your relationship with Qiaoqiao!" ”

Before I could speak, Qiaoqiao's father was already staring at me viciously and said angrily, "Don't tell me it's a friend!" Hmph, my daughter wouldn't have stripped off her swimsuit in the pool at her home! ”

I don't know what to say or how to say it.

What else can I say? Admit that I have a hyper-friendly relationship with Jojo? At the same time, I have a girlfriend of my own...... If I say so, I am afraid that no father in the world can bear to have his daughter "touched" by such a man......

So denial? Let's not say that this is not in line with my personality, and I am not the kind of person who dares to do it. Besides, now that Jojo's father has decided something, do I deny it useful?

He slammed the table, stood up suddenly, and walked slowly towards me...... Just when I thought I was going to get a slap in the face, Jojo's father's hand was on my shoulder. He pressed me hard, as if to make some decision, and then he walked away, walking back and forth in my study several times. Pacing, his face hesitating, thinking.

Finally......

"Chen Yang, let's be honest." Qiaoqiao's father took a deep breath: "I have something to do with Qiaoqiao's girl. It's already a headache. ”

"Although our family doesn't dare to say that it is a wealthy family, it also has some foundation, like our kind of family, whether it is a man or a woman, it is not so casual. In your words, you might think that we are a political marriage...... Hey! Actually, I didn't want to arrange any political marriage for Jojo. ”

Qiaoqiao's father looked at me: "I have only one requirement for Qiaoqiao, the man she is looking for must be in line with our family." If it's an ordinary kid...... To be honest, I don't feel comfortable marrying Jojo to him at all. ”

"Hmm......" I nodded vaguely. But I was a little apprehensive in my heart: Why did he tell me this?

"It's not that I have a gateway view, and it's not that I look down on ordinary boys...... Really, in this world. There are some things that you young people don't understand, let alone understand. He said lightly: "An idiom left by our ancestors is actually very reasonable, but now many children don't understand it." I thought I watched a few romance movies and a few romance novels, and I thought that love was supreme. It is time to ignore all objective conditions. ”

"Those stories on movies and television can be made up casually, what rich family's daughter falls in love with a poor boy, or a rich family's young master falls in love with a girl from a poor background...... They can unscrupulously preach that this is the supremacy of love, and that love is great and noble...... Anyway, in this world, it doesn't cost anything to shout high-profile. Qiaoqiao's father said lightly: "But the door is familiar with this kind of truth, and those little children who have no life experience don't understand." ”

I nodded.

He continued: "I'll give you an analogy, a girl who graduated from college. I fell in love with a man who only had a primary school education. The two of them may have sparked at the beginning because of occasional friction...... People in the family may object, thinking that the education of men is not worthy of girls...... And at this time, I am afraid that the young people around me who have been 'educated' by those love stories will trumpet the supremacy of love, thinking that anyone who organizes the two to be together is rotten and old......

I nodded, as if that were the case.

"But in fact." Qiaoqiao's father pursed his lips: "The so-called heartbeat is only temporary, after a long time, even if the two are together, they will slowly find that because of their different educational backgrounds, their respective hobbies, interests, and habits of life are completely different, and even the conversation is very different." For example, women are highly educated, like to listen to opera, like to watch stage plays, like to watch ballet...... But these are not liked by men who only have a primary school education. For example, men like to be loud, noisy in public, and foul language...... When the two first met, these were expressions that attracted her in the eyes of a woman, but after a long time, the novelty passed, and it felt vulgar. When that happens, even a small movement may feel unpleasant. Actually...... Qiaoqiao's father smiled: "There is a saying called 'love can contain everything', in fact, it is also nonsense made up by writers to fool people." There is no love in the world that can tolerate everything, love is very fragile and must be built on a specific environment and specific conditions...... If two people come from different cultural backgrounds, different qualities, different experiences, different habits...... Then love will not be generated, or it will not be strong, and it will break very quickly. This is what I call a match, not just money, but all other conditions must be met, all must be equal and close. ”

I admit that he was right, really right, and realistic.

A love movie is a love movie after all, and I don't talk about money...... The so-called matchmaking is not narrow, but only refers to the economic conditions and backgrounds of both parties, as well as culture, quality, education received since childhood, living habits, etc., all of which must be comparable.

For example, in China, it is difficult for a northern man and a southern girl to live together in harmony. Even if the two had a good relationship at the beginning, this kind of relationship can't stand the test of life, and the simplest example, most of the men in the north are more machismo. The girls in the south are more delicate and sensitive. When these two people live together, there will inevitably be contradictions, especially when the initial passion is worn out by the trivialities of life. Breaking up is the inevitable end.

These words are hard to hear, but they are true.

Those who sing the slogan "Love can conquer everything" are mostly small hairy children who have not experienced much real feelings.

"Actually......" Qiaoqiao's father said this, and his tone changed: "When I knew that Qiaoqiao was with you, I thought about it a lot. ”

"Oh?" I smiled wryly.

"Of course, you may not understand the psychology of being a father now, that's because you don't stand on my side, maybe in a few decades, you will understand." He sighed. The mature and handsome face was a little helpless: "Qiao Qiaodi is too weird, I don't want to hide this...... Well, or rather. She's weirder than most girls. Especially her strange ...... 'habits'. ”

I didn't say anything -- I couldn't say, "Well, that's right, your daughter is a lover." ”

"So, when I arranged a marriage contract for her, I actually chose it for a long time...... Li Wenjing: You've seen that young man. He's good...... Excellent in all respects and a good family background. In these respects, he is almost flawless. And I have to admit that he is a very charismatic young man. Jojodi's father shrugged his shoulders: "But unfortunately, my daughter doesn't like him." ”

......" I looked him in the eye: "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

"Say you." He was blunt: "From the time I knew Jojo was in Canada and was with you, I started to think about new issues. You, Chen Yang, a young man, you ...... Well, it looks pretty good. What's more, you and Jojo can get along...... Of course, the most important thing is to get the right thing to do. ”

"Uh......" I don't think I'm speechless.

"Frankly speaking, if you were just in that position in the country, I wouldn't even have to think about it, and I would veto you directly. Because I won't let my daughter get along with someone who is at the bottom of society...... It's not that I'm prejudiced against people, but because those four words ......,

"The right door." I sighed.

"Yes, it's the right one. If it is a man of ordinary status, I need to think too much, of course, I will not consider whether he can afford to support my daughter...... You see, I'm not short of money. But what I think about is whether two people can really live together. Two people from different social levels, they live together, eat, dress, use, speak, and do, they will be completely different. When the time period is still fresh, you can still tolerate each other, but wait for a long time...... There will inevitably be contradictions. So, I can accept that when I was in the country, you were my daughter's friend, but when she was a man, I would be the first to come out and break you up. He said it with certainty, and he didn't hide it at all: "The simplest example, when ordinary people spend their time in peacetime, they just eat and drink with friends. But in our level of circle, communication is a kind of learning...... If the two are from different levels, sooner or later they will feel unaccustomed to each other's living habits. ”

He's right.

To put it simply, Qiaoqiao will cost eight thousand dollars to buy a dress casually, an ordinary man, who can stand such a girlfriend? Okay, or you would say that if she really loved me, she would be willing to accompany me for an ordinary rì.

Then I'll tell you, you really don't understand life.

People buy thousands of clothes, not to show off, not to deliberately extravagant...... It's a habit that has been cultivated since childhood, and it's just a habit, and it has nothing to do with "disliking the poor and loving the rich". She is accustomed to the fact that the clothes will be designed by a special designer, and when each famous brand comes out with a new style, the merchant will directly notify her of the new style in accordance with the most considerate and thoughtful VIP service model...... In this case, you ask her to accompany you to eat food stalls and accompany you to the night market to buy dozens of pieces of clothing...... It's not that she dislikes this kind of life too poor, it's just that she feels unaccustomed and uncomfortable.

That's all.

I have also heard of men and women from the north and south of the country who were together and finally broke up, only to have different habits for the sake of simple life: southerners like to eat rice, northerners like to eat pasta. The two parties do love each other very much, but their living habits are different, and in the end, they can't stand this kind of life, so they can only break up.

If you say, well, I can endure eating rice (or pasta) every day for the sake of my lover...... Well, all I can say is that you don't understand life.

What is Life? It's not romantic love, the illusion of infinite beauty of love...... Life is firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea!!

I changed a little: "Are you ...... now?"

"Not a problem now." Jojo's father looked at me: "My first reaction was that Jojo was living with a man, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing. At least she's finally willing to accept a woman...... At least it's much better than her cohabiting with a woman. ”

He said it so directly that I had to smile wryly.

"Then I checked you very closely...... The man who lives with her. Finally, it occurred to me that this might be good news. Indeed, when you are at home, you are still at the bottom of this world. But now, you've come out of the mix, you have a certain status, you have power, and even this power is not small. You are now rich, and you have gradually entered the upper echelons of this world. In terms of this, you're almost exactly fit. There are no flaws...... And, you and Jojo are familiar, very familiar. You have the possibility of being together. He looked at me: "As a father, especially Jojo's father, after a long headache about her life's events, I suddenly feel that you are actually not bad. Although you may not be better than Li Wenjing, you are indeed very outstanding. If you can be my son-in-law, this is also a good choice. ”

He looked at me: "Since the man I chose for her, she doesn't like it." So the man she chose for herself also meets the conditions in my heart, so why not? ”

I was stunned, completely stunned, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Mr. Qiao...... Well, Uncle Joe, you mean, you want me to be your son-in-law? ”

"Exactly." He looked at me with a smile, but then frowned, "But I was a little surprised that there were other girls around you now...... Well, that's an unexpected problem...... But in my opinion, the girl named Yan Di is actually not a big problem. ”
