Chapter Ninety-Six: The Gap in Identity
"Why do you spend the Chinese New Year alone? Are you still messing with your parents and your parents? Chu Zixian dared to ask.
"Don't mention it, it's annoying to hear them, you said that Tongtong and I finally got together, why are they all against it, this doesn't work, that's not good, I'm really convinced." Xiang Xiaodong suddenly complained to Chu Zixian with a face full of grievances, obviously he was not in a good mood for a while.
"It seems that you are not in a good mood on the phone because of these things, right?" Chu Zixian asked Xiang Xiaodong.
"That's right, that's it, my dad and my mom said I couldn't find a second marriage or something, and they didn't think of this son after finding it, saying that they couldn't afford to lose that person, I was speechless, my dad knew that Tongtong's family was capable, and rushed to let me go to the knot, and now he wants to save face, so I'll ......" Xiang Xiaodong forced back the swearing.
Chu Zixian really wanted to say that Xiang Xiaodong's father was a wonder, but fortunately he didn't say it, it seems that Xiang Xiaodong's father really loves face, in order for Xiang Xiaodong not to find a second marriage, he can ignore Li Tong's family background, but this is also related to Xiang Xiaodong's father's age, and he may retire soon, and it is not like before There is a lot of room for promotion, which means that Li Tong's background has no use value in the eyes of Xiang Xiaodong's father now.
It's really clear......
"What is the attitude of Li Tong's family?" Chu Zixian asked Xiang Xiaodong again.
Xiang Xiaodong heard Chu Zixian ask this, sighed deeply and said: "Zixian, Wei Qing, don't hide it from the two of you, I went to Li Tong's house when I came back from the National Day trip with Tongtong, but I was seriously despised by Li Tong's parents, and any word they said had a strong meaning, that is, they looked down on me, and felt that I couldn't give Tongtong happiness because of poverty, Tongtong was now locked up at home by his parents because of this and didn't let her come out, she would be asked by his parents who was chatting with her mobile phone when she played with her mobile phone, I ...... Alas, I knew that this would be the case today, I really should have worked hard earlier, I have been decadent for so many years..."
Xiang Xiaodong said and hammered his head with his fist, his face full of chagrin and inferiority.
"Does that mean that Li Tong's parents rejected you directly? Just don't you like the two of you together? Chu Zixian asked Xiang Xiaodong.
"I didn't say that, her parents said that if you want to marry Tongtong, you have to have a suite in the magic capital first, and have a decent job, at least not much worse than Tongtong's." When Xiang Xiaodong said this, he was full of powerlessness.
"It seems that Li Tong's parents are also trying to save face, but in terms of Li Tong's family background, they don't actually embarrass you." Wei Qing interjected.
"Yes, I know that people don't ask for much, it's because I don't have myself." Xiang Xiaodong lowered his head, very inferior and helpless.
"What about Li Tong? What did she think? Chu Zixian asked Xiang Xiaodong.
"Of course Tongtong is willing, but now that I'm locked up at home, I can only secretly send a few messages every day to contact me." Xiang Xiaodong replied.
"Have you two thought about eloping?" Chu Zixian asked Xiang Xiaodong.
"Elopement?" Xiang Xiaodong nodded, and said uncomfortably: "Tongtong is also willing?" But I don't want her to live in the dark? Not blessed by all your loved ones? I don't have any skills? Tongtong actually hasn't had too many skills to make money for so many years? She doesn't have a job now? I don't have my current job either? How will I live then? You can't rely on luck, can you? ”
Xiang Xiaodong is telling the truth? If Xiang Xiaodong is in his twenties, he will definitely be able to elope with Li Tong, but now he is really thinking about the other party in the future? This decision was really a choice made in the middle of nowhere.
Three people fell into silence for a while? It was Wei Qing who asked Xiang Xiaodong first: "Then what are you going to do now?" ”
"I just don't know, I've lost weight every day for the last two months." Xiang Xiaodong's words made Chu Zixian and Wei Qing laugh.
Then Chu Zixian moved on to other topics? The three of them chatted a little lightheartedly? At some point, Chu Zixian and Xiang Dong were busy cooking dinner in the kitchen, and Wei Qing played with her mobile phone, but she also walked around Xiang Xiaodong's rental house and found that there was a lot of fitness equipment in Xiang Xiaodong's bedroom. No wonder Xiang Xiaodong can lose weight so quickly.
The three of them happily ate dinner, chatted for a while, and Chu Zixian and Wei Qing planned to leave? Xiang Xiaodong also went downstairs to send them out of the community, and when the three of them were waiting for a taxi, Xiang Xiaodong suddenly asked Chu Zixian with a serious expression: "Uh... Well... Zixian, can I..."
"What?" Chu Zixian didn't say anything more when he heard Xiang Xiaodong say it halfway, he urged it.
"Forget it, it's fine." Xiang Xiaodong smiled and said.
"If you have anything, you can say it, and you're welcome to me." Chu Zixian looked at Xiang Xiaodong a little unhappily.
"Hey, it's fine." When Xiang Xiaodong said this, the taxi he called came, and Xiang Xiaodong hurriedly said to the two: "Hurry up and get in the car, the car is coming." ”
"Okay, call me if you have something." Chu Zixian instructed again.
"Definitely!" Xiang Xiaodong replied, watching Chu Zixian and Wei Qing's taxi slowly move away from sight, he sighed deeply, and then, a snowflake floated on the tip of his pen.
Xiang Xiaodong looked up at the sky with light snow, sighed deeply again, and then dragged his legs home step by step, as if he was occasionally led by a thread.
His rebellious period was a bit long, and the time for growth and enlightenment came too late......
in a taxi.
Wei Qing asked Chu Zixian: "I feel that Xiang Xiaodong wants to ask you to borrow money." ”
"I know, but he probably didn't dare to open his mouth for fear that I would refuse." Chu Zixian spoke.
"Yes, the house in the magic capital is not a small number." Wei Qing said that with the request of Li Tong's parents, it was impossible for the suburbs of the magic capital to do it.
"Actually, if he asks, I can lend it to him." Chu Zixian said.
"Brotherly righteousness?" Wei Qing asked Chu Zixian.
"Sort of, but to be reasonable, with the strength of Li Tong's family, it's not difficult to come up with the money for just a house." Chu Zixian also told the truth.
"You still can't look down on Xiang Xiaodong himself, right?" Wei Qing heard the meaning of Chu Zixian's words.
"The material gap between the two people in all aspects is too big, Xiaodong has a house, Li Tong's parents will not agree, they also want a face, and the requirements for money are not so high." Chu Zixian sighed as he spoke.
It's actually a matter of identity, some people may not care about it, but some people value these things very much, especially when the money reaches a certain level.
"Do you want to help?" Wei Qing asked Chu Zixian, but in fact, she had already sensed Chu Zixian's thoughts.
"What do you say?" Chu Zixian asked Wei Qing rhetorically.
"It's still as handsome as it was back then, I still remember what you looked like when you did push-ups during military training." Wei Qing praised Chu Zixian and said that Chu Zixian always had such a charm to attract her.
"I wasn't ugly back then, was I, but I wasn't handsome?" Chu Zixian scratched his head with his hand.
