"Who's out there?" said Mrs. Bain, who rolled up her apron and wiped the water from her hands, and walked with some curiosity towards the door of the house. The Banes are also considered upper-class families in Ordo, better than the middle class, but a little worse than the real upper class.

Mr. Bain previously worked in the state Office of Health Education Management before moving to the newly formed Transportation Authority, where he served as interim deputy commissioner. Some say Mr. Bane offended the governor or some other important person, so he was demoted to the new department of the Transportation Bureau. It may seem like a promotion from a staff member to a deputy commissioner, but everyone knows that the Office of Health Education Management manages health care and educational institutions throughout the state, and the power in both areas is staggering.

Even if it's just a staff member, there's a lot of power in the field, and at least the owners of those agencies need to go through Mr. Bain if they want to do something that hasn't been done before. As a principled worker, Mr. Bain, while not acting as holy as a priest, at least did not let some projects that should not have passed.

Mrs. Bane didn't say anything about changing jobs, but she still had some complaints in her heart. In the past, as long as it was a holiday, there would always be people who would come to the door with gifts. They don't accept valuables, but Mr. Bain never turns down cheap gifts. Now that she had just changed jobs, the people who used to come to the door with her articles were immediately gone, and Mrs. Bane was still a little uncomfortable with the deserted atmosphere of the weekend.

She listened to the doorbell, thinking that it should be the giver who gave the gift, and there was a smile on her face, and she brushed the hair on her sideburns a little, and then opened the door. It's just that what surprised her was that there was indeed someone outside the door, but it wasn't the person who gave the gift, it was her daughter. The false smile on her face melted for a moment, and then a genuine smile appeared, and she immediately took Alyssa's hand and welcomed her in, taking the heavy luggage from her hand by the way.

"I'm still telling your father in the morning that if you don't come back, we're going to see you in Turner next weekend. Mrs. Bell put her luggage on the side of the shoe rack in the door, and after taking a pair of slippers for her daughter, she looked at her daughter with a smile and nodded incessantly, "Yes, I have lost some weight but I am more energetic, my complexion is also very good, and the whole person looks a lot more mature." I'm not very comfortable with you going to work in the field alone, but it seems to have helped you grow. ”

Alyssa smiled reluctantly and took Mrs. Bane's hand into the living room. The quiet and empty living room made Alyssa also have a little doubt, you must know that the house was full of people when she came back on weekends a few times ago, but why are there so few people today?

Mr. Bain put down the newspaper in his hand, removed his black-rimmed eyes, and placed it on the table with the newspaper. He looked Alyssa up and down at the beginning of the film, nodded slightly, and patted the sofa next to him, "Just now your mother asked you how you thought of coming back at this time?

Alyssa also has a younger brother, and that kid is now in college, the university she once aspired to. She rarely comes back on weekdays, maybe her children are not around, but this time Alyssa didn't feel the unbearable feeling of suffocation after she came back. She sat quietly on the sofa, with her relatives by her side, and suddenly felt the urge to cry. The greetings full of care tore the shell she had so hard to forge on the way back.

Tears fell one by one like balls with broken threads.

Mrs. Bane was about to ask something, but Mr. Bane stopped her with a look, and only after Alyssa had cried for a while did he ask, "What happened?"

Alyssa shook her hair and raised her head to reveal a tear-stained smile, "I quit my job and don't want to go again." ”

The expression on Mrs. Bane's face stiffened slightly, as a person who had come over, she naturally knew what Alyssa's reasons were, and that was it. With Alyssa's character of being able to run out to work alone, if it is just a simple grievance, I am afraid that she will not be able to run home with her luggage and cry like this, it must be something related to men. Mrs. Bane moved to Alyssa's side and clasped her hand, "You're in love?"

When she asked this sentence, she actually hoped that Alyssa could deny her speculation, although in this world people do not particularly attach importance to chastity, but one more membrane and one less membrane are basically equal to two different married lives. No one likes to use second-hand goods, even in this more open society, whether the upper class family marries a wife has that membrane represents the future status of women in the family, so Mrs. Bane wants her daughter to give her a negative answer, but unfortunately, Alyssa's silence acquiesces in her words.

Mrs. Bane's hair seemed to stand on its feet, but Mr. Bane stopped her again and asked, "Do you like that man?"

Alyssa nodded a little blankly, but felt that it was just not love, just a ...... Not reconciled?

Looking at her confused eyes, Mr. Bane breathed a sigh of relief, he was not very worried about whether his daughter was lost, compared to the wife who always wanted to get along with the big guys, he felt that as long as he could get by, it was not necessarily a good thing. Wealthy families have the troubles of wealthy families, and with Alyssa's character, she may not be able to tolerate her husband's floweriness, but floweriness is a problem that almost all upper-class men have to face.

The tilt of unequal social resources makes these men face more temptations, from the same class, from the middle and lower classes. These women may not all want to take the place of the main room and enter the wealthy family, but their existence can always disgust people, at least Mr. Bane is not used to it. Quite a few of those decent people have ever flirted with other women in front of their wives, and Alyssa certainly can't stand it.

Rather than that, it would be better for her to marry an ordinary middle class.

"If you don't like that man, why shed tears for him? Whether you leave him or he leaves you, isn't that the best outcome for you? If you like him and love him, go to him and make it clear. If you don't like him and don't love him, let yourself go. Mr. Bain took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "Put your things away and take a shower, and we'll be ready to eat later." He patted the back of Alyssa's hand and said with a smile, "Welcome home, kid!"

After Mr. Bane said this, Alyssa felt much better, thanked Mr. Bane, apologized to Mrs. Bane, and ran to her room upstairs with her suitcase.

After hearing the sound of the door closing, Mrs. Bane complained, "You shouldn't have said that, I was going to introduce Alyssa to Little Done, he said last time that he would love to meet Alyssa, but now I don't know if I should do that!", Done Jr. is the eldest son of Don Rod, who owns two shopping malls and a racetrack under construction in Ordo, and is a wealthy local celebrity in Ordo.

This guy's ancestors were nobles, and although he lost his status as a nobleman in his area, he still retained everything that a nobleman should have. Some say that Donn was a nobleman without a title, and this statement was very popular in Ordo.

Mr. Bane glanced at Mrs. Bane, sneered and shook his head, "That little Donne's private life is too messy, and I don't want my daughter to be wronged." ”

Mrs. Bane snorted twice, "Anyway, in the end, it's all cheap for others, why don't you choose a good one for her, which is good for us?

Ganon was their son, and Mrs. Bane's most valued child, and she gave Ganon almost everything she could get her hands on, hoping that he would make a difference. But unfortunately, this guy was able to go to college not because of how good his grades were, but because the president of the university saw Mr. Bane's face, so he recruited that guy into the school, and regretted it for a while.

Seeing that Mr. Bane picked up the newspaper again, Mrs. Bane muttered a few words and then got up to cook, although she was not happy, but after all, Mr. Bane had already made a decision. As the pillar of the family, all the income depends on Mr. Bane's contributions, and Mr. Bane's status is also supported by Mr. Bain, so Mrs. Bane can only complain and can't really do anything.

After a hearty lunch, the mood between the three of them was a little better, and Alyssa also heard about her father's transfer to the transportation bureau. She didn't know much about this matter, and under Mrs. Bane's explanation, she only felt that it was a small department that was not in the stream. If it was just a complaint between the husband and wife, Mr. Bane could treat her as if she didn't exist, but when he said in front of his daughter that his career had entered a low point, Mr. Bane would not be happy.

"Do you think the Department of Transportation is a powerless agency?", Mr. Bain put down his knife and fork, and made a rare sound of the collision between cutlery and plates, "the great ambition of Mr. Maggs, the leader of the New Party, is also something you can understand? What a stupid housewife! You open your eyes and look at the traffic that almost never stops on the street outside, what do you see?"

Without waiting for Mrs. Bain to answer, Mr. Bain began to ask himself, and his voice became louder and louder, "It's power, idiots, power! All cars on the road, good or bad, whoever sits in them, will eventually be subject to the management of the Transportation Bureau." I know there are going to be a lot of big people here, but no matter how big they are, can they be bigger than the party leader, Mr. Maggs? No, they can't, no one, so what do I need to fear?"
