Chapter Twenty-Six: True People

Listening to Gao Yang's narration, it seems that Xu Wenrui's family is not completely unaware of Xu Wenrui's learning level on weekdays, at least they clearly feel that being admitted to K University is an unexpected surprise.

"So in fact, Xu Wenrui's family has been flaunting his excellent character and learning, versatility and so on, but in fact, it is more of a vanity in front of outsiders, especially in front of your parents?" Yan Xue asked.

"That's not all." Gao Yang did not completely deny the tendency of Yan Xue to say, "Xu Wenrui's mother and my mother are completely two extremes, my mother has always felt that the IQ of our family of three is accounted for by her alone, and my father and I have an elm head, all of which are not open."

Xu Wenrui's mother thinks that no one in their family is as smart as Xu Wenrui, Xu Wenrui's academic performance in the past is ordinary, and his mother thinks that Xu Wenrui is too smart, so he doesn't work hard enough, as long as he works hard, he can definitely improve immediately.

Later, when I took the college entrance examination, didn't I get admitted to K University, and my mother felt that her point of view was right, and she was more confident in Xu Wenrui, if it was me, if I had spent so much time and energy on those idle things, my mother would have scolded me a long time ago, how could I think it was an excellent performance, and I told people everywhere. ”

Gao Yang's expression revealed a kind of helplessness, and there seemed to be a bit of envy in the helplessness.

"In other words, Xu Wenrui's parents are very clear about the fact that Xu Wenrui's academic performance was not very outstanding before he went to college, but what is Xu Wenrui's academic situation after going to college, his parents don't know about it, and they don't intend to beautify their children in front of us?" Yan Xue came to such a conclusion through Gao Yang's previous statement.

"I think so, Xu Wenrui's mother pays more attention to those things that sound particularly beautiful and face-saving, plus after Xu Wenrui left home to live in school, he went home and said no more than two truths out of ten, all of them have been injected with water, not only his parents feel that since their children can be admitted to K University, they must not be wrong in studying, even we think that he is really a scholarship, and he is all in hand, and I was surprised to hear his counselor say that today."

Kang Ge was listening to Yan Xue and Gao Yang chatting, and at the same time looking at Gao Yang.

is different from Xu Wenrui, who is full of trendy brands, Gao Yang is not only not as outstanding as Xu Wenrui in appearance, but also dressed like him, as if he can no longer be found when he is thrown into the crowd.

Now that the living conditions are good, and it is an era of great material abundance, love to dress up and love beauty is no longer a characteristic of girls, young men in their early twenties are pursuing a trend and want to pick up themselves, not to mention ordinary clothing matching, hair dyeing and perming, even if it is foundation and eyebrow drawing, it is not an uncommon thing for fashionable men at the moment.

On the other hand, Gao Yang, with a slightly messy parted head, overgrown native eyebrows, I don't know if it is because of the season, chapped lips, plus that set of jackets that are not eye-catching at random to any fifty or sixty-year-old uncle, he is no longer a question of whether he is trendy or not, but old-fashioned, and exceptionally simple.

Judging from his previous description, it seems that his family conditions should be better than Xu Wenrui's, and this can also be distinguished from the clothes on the two families when they appeared at the Public Security Bureau together that day.

"Xu Wenrui's parents are more favored by their son because he has grown up and has a prosperous future, or has he always been like this?" Kang Ge waited for Gao Yang and Yan Xue to talk about Xu Wenrui's learning situation, and then asked him.

"I really know this," Gao Yang, as Xu Wenrui's hair, although the relationship between the two is a little delicate, but he knows the situation in Xu Wenrui's family very well, "Listen to my mother, Xu Wenrui's father is the third generation of their family, Xu Wenrui's mother, it seems that the family has been patriarchal since he was a child, so his mother also thinks that boys are good and have to give birth to sons."

So when Xu Wenrui was born, their family was old and young, from top to bottom, they were very happy, just like winning millions of lotteries, so since he was a child, Xu Wenrui was the baby bump of their family, and the whole family took turns to pet.

I remember when I was in junior high school, I don't know how it came about, and suddenly there was a brand of clothes among the students, and if anyone wore that brand of clothes, everyone else thought that he was not only fashionable, but also had money in the family.

I remember that a T-shirt of that brand cost more than 1,000 yuan, and I didn't think there was anything particularly good-looking, other clothes were more expensive, my classmates also wore them, and some people ran to buy imitations for vanity.

I didn't dare to think about it at that time, I dared to compare this kind of thing, my mother must have picked my skin, but I met Xu Wenrui during the Spring Festival that year, he wore a cotton coat of that brand, my mother later heard me say that it was a trendy brand, and ran to inquire with Xu Wenrui's mother, I heard that the clothes cost more than 3,000 yuan, and Xu Wenrui's monthly salary was only more than 3,000. ”

"When I was in junior high school, I was willing to spend a month's salary on my child to catch up with fashion, which is really enough to spoil my child!" Kango nodded.

"Yes, my mother also thinks that Xu Wenrui is a little too, she doesn't care if Xu Wenrui's family is used to children, mainly because she thinks that Xu Wenrui's family obviously has no money, and she dresses up her children as if they are rich second generation, which is very unhappy.

Later, Xu Wenrui told me that his mother thinks that spending more than 3,000 to buy cotton clothes is more cost-effective than spending more than 1,000 to buy T-shirts, and it is so hot in summer, if you wear T-shirts for two or three days in a row and don't wash them, it won't be a good thing, it must be stinky.

Winter cotton clothes are different, as long as they don't get particularly dirty, you can wear them every day, one at a time. In the summer, if you don't change your T-shirt for two or three days in a row, others will laugh at this person's lack of hygiene, and if you don't change your cotton clothes for a month or two in winter, it's not a big deal.

In this way, the cotton clothes will be worn all the time, and whoever sees Xu Wenrui will know that he has such a brand-name cotton clothes, and they will feel that his family conditions are quite good, so that the child can afford to wear that brand. ”

"Xu Wenrui's mother has a lot of eyes!" Yan Xue was surprised, she didn't expect to buy a brand-name dress for her child, but she was actually given a taste of the art of war by Xu Wenrui's mother.

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's mainly because it's too expensive to buy that dress, a bit beyond their affordability, so they have to think about how it is more cost-effective." Gao Yang sighed a little helplessly.

"So there are some things in this world that are really fun." Kang Ge grinned and teased, "If you have meat to eat, you have to bury it under the bowl and eat it secretly for fear that others will rob it." If he has no meat to eat, he is afraid that others will think that he can't afford to eat it, so he hangs a meat skin by the door, wipes his mouth before going out, and goes out shiny, so that people all over the world think that he has just eaten meat. ”

After speaking, he looked at Gao Yang and smiled: "You are the kind of person who has meat buried in the bowl to eat, right?" I think that day in the Public Security Bureau, your parents were dressed, and the conditions in your home should indeed be much better than Xu Wenrui, but you look more low-key than him. ”

He used a praising tone, but Gao Yang did not have the joy of being praised at all, but was silent for a while with a somewhat complicated expression, and said emotionally: "It's not that I want to be low-key, it's my mother who told me that no matter how much money she and my dad make, it will be their pension in the future, when they die, how much is left, that's mine, before I have to rely on myself, especially now that I am graduating from college, what I can do in the future is all up to me, she will not make up for me." ”

"There's nothing wrong with that." Kang Ge saw Gao Yang's emotional loss, picked up the teapot next to him, and refilled Gao Yang's teacup, "You are all in your twenties, it stands to reason that the deceased is the greatest, I shouldn't say that, but when you reach the age of finding a partner, you will also face starting a family in the future, and girls must pay more attention to their own abilities, no one can be willing to find a boyfriend and husband who is not too young and has to take the test for parents to tighten their belts, right?"

But then again, Xu Wenrui's opposite-sex relationship seems to be quite good, how much do you know about him in this regard? We've heard that a lot of girls in K University like him, and he himself belongs to the handsome guys.

In this way, let's talk about it behind closed doors, you reveal to us, what kind of style is he doing in terms of feelings? Is love life complicated or not? We now need to determine a direction of investigation, and the private life of the deceased is also important. ”

"No, no, no!" Gao Yang waved his hand busily, supplemented by shaking his head, as if he wanted to express his disagreement with Kang Ge's speculation to the most obvious extent, "Xu Wenrui's love life is not complicated, and he is not the kind of scumbag you think, you may not believe it, Xu Wenrui's opposite-sex relationship is actually just false prosperity." ”

"Opposite-sex relationships and false prosperity?" Yan Xue felt that this statement sounded quite fresh.

"Well, even the people who like him are just a kind of superficial like, because he is more showy, so he seems popular, but in fact, there are very few people who can actually have in-depth interactions, because...... Because...... He is very picky, he is more careful about money, even if he is in love, he doesn't want to bear more, so he won't fall in love with girls easily. ”

"So he's been in a relationship, right? We'd love to hear he's talked about it. Kango asked vaguely.

Gao Yang replied very clearly: "I talked about it, he talked about a girlfriend and brought it home to meet his parents, but his parents didn't seem to like that girl very much, Xu Wenrui was unhappy, saying that he didn't marry her, so he recognized this girl, and because of this, he had a cold war with the family for a long time, and in the end his parents really had no choice, so they didn't say anything." ”
