Chapter 15: Beijing, Beijing

It is said that there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and there are a thousand different Beijing in the hearts of a thousand people who have lived in Beijing. Many times, choosing Beipiao is a gamble, no one can be sure whether you win or lose, if you love someone, send him to Beijing, because it is paradise; If you hate someone, send him to Beijing, because it's hell there...

Every day, tens of thousands of people desperately want to stay here, including clouds; Every day, there are many people who think about the meaning of living here, and among them are steamed buns. She never considered herself a real Beijinger, and even though her ID card started with 110, and even though she grew up in this land, she always felt that she and her parents were authentic farmers by the roots.

Due to the definition of "old Beijing" by the outside world, subconsciously, everyone seems to think that only after the second ring road can be regarded as real Beijingers. A girl like Baozi, who grew up outside the fifth ring road, has less flamboyance and more steadfastness in her personality. With the heartiness and honesty of a Beijing girl, as well as the diligence and simplicity of a girl from other places, although Baozi occasionally complains that the smog is getting worse and the housing prices are getting higher and higher, she still loves the city deeply.

When he didn't go to work on the Happy Workplace website, Baozi worked as an administrator in a private company, and the boss was a foreigner, and he seemed to have a kind of hatred for Beijingers. She often accuses Baozi of being lazy and lazy, consciously or unconsciously, and the most she says is: Don't think that if you are from Beijing, you have no fear.

Although the bun is careful everywhere and flatters in all kinds of ways, the boss is never satisfied. When Baozi proposed to resign, the boss said in a weird manner: "Anyway, you don't have to go to work, the family will support you, it's good to be a big lady who stretches out her hands for clothes and opens her mouth for food." ”

At that time, Baozi's face was flushed with anger, and when she was about to argue, she saw a stack of thick materials on the boss's desk, which was the enrollment brochure of XX Primary School. She knew that because the boss's daughter's hukou was not in Beijing, she could not enroll in the school she was optimistic about, and several times when she passed by the office, the boss was talking about the matter on the phone. Thinking of this, Baozi felt that it was not easy for everyone to live in Beijing, she bowed lightly to the boss, turned around and left the company...

On this day, Baozi's friend Little Demon asked her out for dinner. The little demon is a Beijing girl in the real sense, who grew up in the South Second Ring Road, has a solid family background, and her parents are in business.

The two met at a time-honored shabu meat shop, the little demon painted with exquisite makeup, dressed in a famous brand, looked fashionable and avant-garde, and looked out of place with the store full of fireworks. After sitting down, she ordered dozens of plates of dishes, smacking her mouth from time to time, ridiculing words such as "the taste has changed, not authentic", while taking a bite of mutton and a bite of the Arctic Ocean, eating and drinking is not very happy.

After eating and drinking, the little demon wiped his mouth and said, "How is your job?" Is it still smooth? Baozi pondered for a moment, nodded and replied: "It's okay, it's just that the salary is a little less." The little demon persuaded earnestly: "Alas, you just don't open your mind. I told you a long time ago, come to my father's company, and the guaranteed salary will give you 7,000, you can come if you want, and leave if you don't want to come, isn't it more comfortable than you are now? Baozi quipped: "That's your dad, not my dad." Besides, although I earn a little less in this job now, we have a good leadership, and maybe I can realize my dream. ”

The little demon stirred the sesame sauce in the bowl and said disdainfully: "Dreams? How much is a dream worth? You're held up by your boss's pie, right? Baozi replied angrily: "You eldest lady born with a golden spoon, of course you don't understand the hardships of the struggle of the people at the bottom." The little demon looked at the bun with a smile and said: "I'm just a layman, I only know that the monthly rent comes in, looking at the real money, that is my happiest time." ”

After the little demon finished speaking, she picked up the lipstick and began to draw seriously, she looked at the bun, and continued: "I booked a ticket to Paris next week, do you want to go shopping with me?" The head of the bun shook like a rattle, and refused: "You better spare me, I don't have any spare money to shop now, and the other is a bunch of things in the company, and I can't leave at all." ”

The little demon "cut" and said dissatisfiedly: "I really don't know what kind of ecstasy your boss poured into you, so desperate." By the way, do you still need to rent a house in your company? The tenant moved out of the suite in Chaoyangmen, and if you have an acquaintance, ask me to ensure that it is cheap. ”

Bunzi asked evilly, "How cheap can it be?" If it's 100 yuan a month, rent it to me, anyway, you can't live in so many houses in your family. The little demon widened his eyes, picked up a tissue and threw it at the bun: "Stinky girl, do you want to cut off the old lady's wealth?" There are no doors. Do you know what the best name is in Beijing? Landlord! That's our biggest strength. Yes, I still have something to do, go first, if you want to come to my dad's company, call at any time. ”

Looking at the figure of the little demon driving the sports car, Baozi fell into a long contemplation. Although his family background is not as solid as that of the little demon, he is also worry-free. She has a lot of friends around her, all of whom live by collecting rent, and they can find a random company to attach to an idle job, and they are at ease every day, so comfortable.

But is that really what you want? Since joining the Happy Workplace website and meeting Nicole, Baozi seems to have found a new direction. Nicole is like an older sister, giving her encouragement and support, teaching her how to face difficulties and solve problems. Although she is still chaotic occasionally, deep down she is pushed forward step by step by the power of dreams.

By the way, there are also clouds, the gentle, sensitive and inexpressive girl. She is sincere, frank, never pursues material comforts, and carefully guards the happiness of herself and her boyfriend in Beijing. Although she hasn't been with Yunduo for a long time, she really likes this girl. The addition of Yunduo also made her see the motivation to struggle, in this city, everyone has a different way of life, Baozi does not have to run around for a living, but she does not want to spend the rest of her life doing nothing.

Beijing, for many people spread out a test paper, stay in the city for a long time, multiple-choice questions are getting easier and easier, such as staying or leaving; Multiple-choice questions are becoming more and more difficult, such as employment, promotion, buying a house, settling down... Whether the final answer is qualified or not is really up to your own decision...
