Chapter 54: Chatting
Li Hui and Zhao Ting sat on the sofa, after all, they were also at their mother-in-law's house, and they were not too close, anyway, it was not the first time they came, and they did not seem too restrained.
"How about taking your parents to see it in two days?" Li Hui said to Zhao Ting, Yao Hui wanted to see the new house last time about Zhang Peng, but due to the sudden events at that time, it didn't affect her face.
Zhao Ting groaned for a while, stroked the bangs on her forehead, and said, "Okay, you're usually busy; I'll take them with me when I have time. ”
Li Hui is also gratified, although everyone who is running around looks glamorous on the façade, but when they work for others, the hard work is hidden in their hearts, and Zhao Ting is also sensible and will think about Li Hui.
At this time, a middle-aged man of about fifty walked in the room, his eyes were bright, but his face was full of vicissitudes; can imagine what life tortures a person into, this old man struggled to carry the whole family on his shoulders, this person is Zhao Ting's father Zhao Xiong.
Zhao Xiong was still wearing a set of coats for work at this time, and this set of work clothes was usually worn when the family needed to be clean, because there were too many sets.
"Hello uncle!" Li Hui stood up and greeted Zhao Xiong simply, anyway, it was not the first time he came, his son-in-law was already a certainty, and he didn't have the embarrassment and nervousness of the first time, and he couldn't wait to run away.
The sofa was not very big, and Zhao Xiong carried a small bench to sit on the side of the coffee table; Li Hui seemed to think of something, and immediately walked over to help Zhao Xiong.
"Uncle, I'm here, you make the sofa." Li Hui's simple move is something that many young people can't consider now, Zhao Xiong is not a crooked person, but it can be seen from the details that Li Hui is a very good young man.
"No, you sit, you sit." Zhao Xiong smiled, there was an indescribable kindness on his old face, they all said that fifty and knew the destiny of heaven, Zhao Xiong is now more than half a hundred years old, and he has long lost the arrogance of his youth.
They all say that when they go to their mother-in-law's house for dinner, they will definitely call their father-in-law brothers, and I still remember the first time Li Hui went to Zhao Ting's house, Zhao Xiong was drunk, put his arm around Li Hui's shoulders and said: "Brother, let me tell you, I really appreciate you!" ”
Now, it has been a long time since the first meal, and Zhao Xiong must be measured in drinking now, and he will not be commensurate with Li Hui as a brother.
However, the chat between men is so strange; Zhao Ting and Yao Hui had a good meal, Zhao Xiong was stunned and chatted with Li Hui for a long time with a glass of wine, up to astronomy and geography, down to trivialities, anyway, what to talk about, but as a parent, the father of his fiancée Zhao Ting, the most important thing is Li Hui's work and future development.
"I heard Zhao Ting say, you are working under a boss now, right?" Zhao Xiong didn't understand the world of young people, anyway, he had heard that Wang Congcong was quite famous in the whole of Beijing, but not as much as some young people now.
Li Hui smiled: "Luckily, I was appreciated by the boss, and now at least the economic conditions are definitely fine, and the company has solved the housing or something." ”
Zhao Xiong is also relieved that he is such an only daughter; You say don't worry, you don't worry; That's impossible, after getting married, the conflict will come out, and he doesn't want his daughter and son-in-law to live as hard as their generation in the future.
"It's good to have a house, the pressure on you and Zhao Ting will be much less in the future, and your boss should be very good." Zhao Xiong's sentence is the most realistic answer for a simple migrant worker, he doesn't understand Wang Congcong's standard of spending 8 million a night, and can only make a basic judgment from the depths of his heart.
Li Hui picked up a glass of wine and toasted a glass of wine; Deliberately bring the glass to the bottom, which is also a sign of respect for the predecessors.
After finishing the wine, Li Hui said: "Our boss still trusts me, and I am still at ease at work." ”
Actually, Li Hui didn't know; Zhao Ting's parents are also heartbroken for this daughter, an only daughter, it is very difficult for Li Hui's job to buy a house before, Zhao Ting's parents secretly discussed saving some money to help the newlywed couple, but now the concerns are much smaller, and there is nothing to say about Li Hui's recognition.
"What do you do now?" Zhao Xiongdao.
Li Hui knew that people in Zhao Xiong's era didn't know much about e-sports and online games, but since he was his future father-in-law; didn't hide it, and then said: "Online game staff." ”
Zhao Xiong frowned, he naturally knew what this job was for, his concept felt that teachers, doctors, and national civil servants should be much more stable anyway, in fact, this is also the right idea, because state-owned enterprises or civil servants, with stable jobs, are the best choice for a family, however, since Li Hui has made achievements in the game, although he doesn't know much about what young people play now, he still really supports and recognizes.
Zhao Xiong picked up a glass of wine and said, "It's good, come on!" ”
Li Hui was also a little moved in his heart, he was very happy to get Zhao Xiong's understanding; Relying on the game to get a basic salary of nearly 600,000 yuan per year, I don't know what to say about it in exchange for a somewhat stubborn old-fashioned one.
Halfway through, Zhao Ting and Yao Hui fried some peanuts and shredded potatoes for the two to drink, claiming to have some snacks.
In the bedroom, Yao Hui held Zhao Ting's hand and said.
"Tingting, you said that Li Hui's treatment is so good now, and our pressure is much less."
Zhao Ting also smiled slightly and nodded.
"He is working very hard now, many times he will work overtime for a long time, their boss also values him, the house and car have been solved for him, and the monthly salary is not low."
Yao Hui nodded and said: "In the future, when you get married, save more money, and you can only take out money when the family needs it, your father and I have worked for other private bosses all our lives, and we have been poor all our lives, Li Hui has a chance, and your life will be better." ”
Zhao Ting was silent, she understood her parents' concern;
Outside, Zhao Xiong seems to be drunk, but it is also possible that he is happy in his heart; This son-in-law was deeply liked by him, and after a while, the wine culture of calling brothers and sisters began again.
Driving back to Longteng International's residence, Li Hui also wanted to go back to see his parents, he saw Zhao Ting's parents today, why didn't he want to drive to his parents?
He still remembers how he felt when he was swept out of the house, and how Aunt Zhang of the neighbor's house was sneering.
"His son graduated from graduate school and worked as a manager; The monthly salary is 8,000. ”
I'm afraid that behind the scenes, Li Hui is the laughing stock of these people: "Li Hui of the old Li family doesn't do his job, he only plays useless games." ”
Li Hui will not forget the scene of his mother throwing the game helmet out of the door, he feels very tired; Although he also knew that his mother was really anxious about himself.
Many of the people who helped themselves in life and turned themselves over were strangers like Wang Congcong; Li Hui's poor class, due to mutual influence, will only get poorer and poorer.
Li Hui was lying on the comfortable bed alone, he felt an indescribable tiredness in his heart, closed his eyes, and couldn't be quiet for a long time.
