On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lao Lin's family was full of guests as usual.

At such times, Ms. Wen must be busy in the kitchen, Lao Lin is smoking with a group of male guests in the courtyard, and Lin Yao entertains female guests in the house.

Under Ms. Wen's vigorous publicity, Lin Yao's purchase of a house in Hangzhou has long been known in the village, and relatives and friends have also known about it.

Relatives and friends are not surprised by this, the Lin family's family background is not thin, and it is not too difficult for Lao Lin and his wife to take out their savings for many years to help their daughter buy a house with a mortgage in Hangzhou.

That's right, although Ms. Wen repeatedly emphasized that Lin Yao used the money she earned to buy a house, everyone still thinks that it was the money from Lao Lin and his wife.

Until Lin Yao bought a car......

When everyone learned that Lin Yao had bought a car less than a year after buying a house, their minds changed.

Even if they don't know about the housing prices in Hangzhou, they also know that it is impossible for Lao Lin and his wife to come up with so much money to buy a car after buying a house.

The conclusion is: Lin Yao really made money!

At the dinner table, relatives and friends naturally had to praise her.

"Yaoyao really has the ability, she can buy a house and a car after working for three or four years."

"What company does Yaoyao work in and make so much money?"

……

Lin Yao can be regarded as a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and in the face of everyone's interrogation, she coped with it easily, "Fortunately, I bought the house early, and the price was cheap at that time."

I bought the car with my colleagues, and the price was much cheaper than usual. ”

At first, it was also harmonious, but gradually the wind direction changed, and the seven aunts and eight aunts all invariably cared about Lin Yao's life events.

The aunt smiled and asked, "Yaoyao has studied until graduate school, why didn't she bring her boyfriend back to show us?" ”

Lin Yao was slightly stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I haven't found it yet, if I find a good boyfriend, I will definitely bring it back to my aunt." ”

The eldest aunt laughed when she heard this, but the third aunt was full of disapproval, "You are twenty-five, why don't you find a boyfriend?" ”

Other relatives and friends also chimed in: "The girls in our village who are twenty-five years old are already married, is Yaoyao too demanding?" ”

Lao Lin is still a stuffy gourd, slowly devouring the vegetables, ignoring them.

Ms. Wen was also silent when she heard it, and she persuaded everything she should have persuaded, but her daughter didn't open up.

Lin Yao didn't know if her requirements were too high, in short, it was impossible for her to tell her and Qin Rongze about herself and Qin Rongze at this time.

Seeing that the situation was not good, she hurriedly explained/covered up: "I don't have high requirements, but I'm very busy during this time, I'll go to find a partner when I'm done with this, don't worry, I'll bring it back to everyone after I find it." ”

In the past, Lin Yao said this, and everyone heard it the same way, but this time it is different, Lin Yao is twenty-five years old this year!

A twenty-five-year-old girl is still young in the city, but it has reached the point where it is difficult to put it in the countryside.

After listening to Lin Yao's words, everyone's faces gradually changed.

The aunt said earnestly: "Work is important, family is also important, for women, family is more important than work." If there is no happy family, what is the point of a woman making more money? ”

Others have persuaded: "At your age, earning more and earning less is secondary, and finding a good partner is the most important!" ”

"Yes, yes, don't delay finding a partner in order to make money."

Lin Yao: "......"

She didn't stop falling in love in order to make money, but the current situation between her and Qin Rongze is really not suitable for publicity.

Lin Yao tried her best to deal with the interrogation of relatives and friends.

After lunch, relatives and friends dispersed, and Lao Lin was dragged away, leaving only their mother and daughter at home, and a lot of pots and pans that needed to be cleaned.

Ms. Wen was busy cleaning up the mess, while Lin Yao rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to wash dishes.

The huge courtyard was quiet again.

Lin Yao's year can be described as mixed.

On the one hand, her own career has just started and her future is uncertain, so it is inconvenient to tell relatives and friends too early, so that when everyone asks where she works, they can only be vague.

On the other hand, there was no progress in the matter between her and Qin Rongze, there were so many obstacles between them, no one knew how long it would take him to solve those troubles, let alone whether they could really come together in the end.

It is also inconvenient to disclose it to relatives and friends, so it can only be perfunctory.

As the so-called feng shui takes turns, Ms. Wen and Lin Yao are shrouded in gloomy clouds, and Yueyue's mother, who has always been at odds with Ms. Wen, has finally made a beautiful turnaround--- Yueyue has a girlfriend!

Yueyue's mother finally raised her eyebrows, and at this time she was standing at the gate of her house with her head held high, talking loudly.

She said: "Our family's more and more girlfriends work in large companies, people are beautiful, and their income is high, the key is that she is very good to our family, and she is good to me, look at my clothes, which is bought by our family's more and more girlfriends, not that I said, even my own daughter may not have such intimate ......"

Yue Yue's mother's voice was already loud, she was very confident at this time, and her voice was louder than usual, and she could hear it from afar.

Ms. Wen and Lin Yao naturally heard it clearly.

Ms. Wen walked into the kitchen with a stack of plates in a complicated mood, glanced at her, and said lightly: "I have also seen Yue Yue's girlfriend, she has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and she is indeed beautiful." ”

The more and more average-looking he is, he can find a girlfriend with such good conditions, it is indeed worth bragging about for a while.

Lin Yao let out an "oh" and continued to bury her head in the bowl.

Ms. Wen glanced at Lin Yao's already reddened fingers, and her brows immediately furrowed, "You are clumsy, you can't do anything, open it for me!" ”

Speaking of which, Lin Yao is really a clumsy person who is slow to learn anything since she was a child, and she has a good-looking face.

If it weren't for the IQ test, she would have thought she was a little "wooden".

But washing the dishes is not difficult for her, but her hands......

Lin Yao is not fat, but her two hands look chubby, which was caused by chilblains when she was a child.

When she grows up, she can't touch cold water, especially not cold water or hot water, which can easily get chilblains.

Ms. Wen has always been reluctant to let her daughter do rough work, and this time it was the same, so she hurriedly kicked her out, "Don't stay here and get in the way, go out and put away the stools in the yard." ”

Most of the bowls in the sink were left, but her hands were already a little uncomfortable, and if she continued to wash the dishes, her ten fingers would swell into carrots tonight, and she left the kitchen anyway.

The warm sunlight sprinkled in the yard, and melon peels, cigarette butts and the like could be seen everywhere.

According to local customs, you can't sweep the floor or wash clothes on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so these melon peels have to be left until the second day of the first lunar month.

Lin Yao only needed to move the seven or eight stools in the yard back to the house to complete the task.

It's rare to be leisurely, and the weather is so good, Lin Yao plans to go out for a walk.

Unexpectedly, she only walked a few steps before she met Yueyue's mother, who was waiting there.

Nowadays, not only relatives and friends are particularly concerned about Lin Yao's life events, but even the helpless people in the village, such as the one in front of him, are also particularly concerned.

Yueyue's mother asked with a smile, "Where is Yaoyao at home?" Why don't you go out and play? ”

Lin Yao said casually: "I was about to go out for a walk." ”

The relationship between the two of them was not very good, Yue Yue's mother also took the initiative to come up and chat, obviously to find fault, Lin Yao had no intention of talking to her more.

Yue Yue's mother refused to give up, and asked knowingly: "Why are you alone during this New Year?" Doesn't your boyfriend stay with you? ”

After saying this, she looked at Lin Yao proudly, as if she waited until Lin Yao personally admitted the fact that she didn't have a boyfriend, and then continued to fight.

Lin Yao naturally wouldn't let her get her wish, Quan Dang didn't hear it, turned around and left.

I never thought that Yue Yue's mother would speed up her pace and catch up, and continued to ask her, "You are twenty-five years old, and you are not looking for a boyfriend, are you going to find one?" ”

Really......

Lin Yao was interrogated by relatives and friends for a long time today, and just as there was nowhere to spread the fire in her belly, someone took the initiative to come up.

She asked a lot of questions unceremoniously, "I heard that Yue Yue has found a good partner, so he should get married next, right?" Is the bride price money ready? Where is the wedding wine? I've heard that girls in the city are asking to buy a house in the city, where are you going to buy it? ”

Yueyue's mother was dumbfounded.

Now marrying a daughter-in-law, the gift money starts at 180,000 yuan, and some people who open their mouths directly ask for 188,000 yuan, and ask the man to buy a house!

How high is today's housing prices, even in small cities, it is often tens of thousands of square meters, and it costs seven or eight hundred thousand yuan to buy a small apartment, and the down payment alone is two or three hundred thousand.

The key is that you can't live in a house directly, and you have to decorate it, and you can't get down to it without more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan.

In this way, in order to marry a daughter-in-law, their family has to come up with at least five or six hundred thousand.

Now the living conditions in the rural areas are better, but most families are not good enough to easily take out 500,000 or 600,000 yuan.

If they don't give gift money and don't buy a house, it is impossible for the girl of that family to marry Yue Yue.

In fact, the more she didn't have a girlfriend, she was worried, and now the more she has a girlfriend, the more she worries!

Yueyue's mother didn't tell anyone about these things, but Lin Yao broke it with a word, and every sentence pierced her heart, and Yueyue's mother hated her heart.

She blurted out, "I heard that some girls in the city follow some old men in order to make money, and it is very fast to make money, but the money is not clear, and it is not clean, and the face of my parents is lost." After saying that, he spat on the ground.

It was as if Lin Yao had already done something unseemly.

Lin Yao sneered and said sarcastically, "Anyway, my parents' daughters won't do this kind of thing, and I don't know about other people's daughters." ”

Other people's daughters, this range is wide......

Yue Yue's mother was first surprised, then angry, and said unconvinced: "According to you, you buy a house and a car, all of which are your own money?" What a braggadocio! ”

Brag?

Lin Yao is too late to be low-key, what kind of boast is she!

But there are some people in this world who feel that they can't afford to buy a house, so others can't afford it, and they can't afford a car, so they can't afford it, unless they use other people's money.

This is the reason why Lin Yao didn't want to tell her family too early that she bought a house, she obviously used the money she earned through her own efforts, but it became unclear and unclean in the mouth of others.

She worked hard and worked hard to make money, but she didn't want others to come to her door and splash dirty water!

Lin Yao looked at her with a smile and said, "I once heard a joke about two beggars who wanted to eat the baked cakes on the street, but they couldn't afford to eat them.

So it was discussed whether the queen mother in the palace ate baked cakes every day, and how many baked cakes the queen mother ate at a meal.

I originally thought that this kind of story must be made up, no matter how ignorant people should know, the queen mother can't eat baked cakes every day, and eat several at once!

But now, I know I was wrong, there really are such people in the world! ”

In the beggar's opinion, it is already a great thing to be able to eat baked cakes, even if you become a queen, you can only eat a few more baked cakes.

In the eyes of people who have lived in the countryside all their lives, it is impossible to buy a house and a car on their own.

What Lin Yao wants to express is that if you can't afford it, it doesn't mean that I can't afford it either.

Hearing it in the ears of Yue Yue's mother, it became Lin Yao comparing her to a beggar, and she suddenly exploded.

"Okay, you sharp-toothed girl, even if you can make money? Like you, you can't marry without gift money, even if you stick to your house or car, no one will necessarily be willing to marry you! ”

This can be regarded as one of the more vicious verbal attacks in the countryside.

Lin Yao smiled angrily, "What does my house and car have to do with you?" If you have that time, you might as well think about when your family will buy a house and a car. ”

Lin Yao doesn't like to deal with people like Yue Yue's mother, although she was angry when she said this, but she only stopped at the point, but she still pierced the sore spot of others again.

Yue Yue's mother's face turned blue and white for a while, and her speech became more and more vicious, "Isn't there just two money, what is there to be proud of?" You're twenty-five years old, and you can't find a partner yet, and in a few years, you're going to find a second marriage! ”

Lin Yao really didn't want to quarrel with people on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but some people quarreled endlessly.

She glanced meaningfully at Yueyue's mother, and said sarcastically, "I don't need to find a second marriage at my age, if you ...... That must only find a second marriage. ”

Yue Yue's mother was so angry with her that she didn't choose to speak: "How do you talk to your elders? Begging for a beating, isn't it? ”

Their village is small, and every family is related to each other.

Yue Yue's mother usually never thinks about this, and only moves out when it is time to quarrel, so Lin Yao does not recognize this kind of relative.

"As an elder, you should look like an elder, you don't have the appearance of an elder, why let others treat you as an elder?"

Yueyue's mother was so angry that she wanted to do it.

Of course, Lin Yao would not be stupid enough to stand there and let people fight, but it seemed too cowardly to run away. Just as she was thinking about how to slip away so that she didn't seem so cowardly, suddenly her mother stood there stunned.

Following her line of sight, Lin Yao saw a tall figure.

The person who came was slender and straight, he stood in the wind in the sun, like a jade Xiao standing there, noble and flawless, it was Qin Rongze.

Lin Yao thought of a very important question.

He, he shouldn't have heard them arguing, right?

Lin Yao and Yue Yue's mother's voices were not too small, not to mention that Qin Rongze was standing so close, it was impossible for him not to hear it!

It's a big mess......

Lin Yao was dumbfounded.

***

Small Theatre:

Lin Yao was so anxious that she was about to cry: You listen to my explanation, I didn't mean to quarrel, but people have to come to the door to scold, and I can't help it.

Qin Rongze: I want to say that you are very beautiful, but ......

Lin Yao interrupted him: Okay, I understand, if you can't accept it, just leave.

Qin Rongze: Ahem, I mean, you're more beautiful when you quarrel.

Lin Yao was stunned: Huh?
