Chapter 573: The Gameplay of the Big Family
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Talisman Bodyguard!
Hearing this, Shen Lei couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Lu family is indeed big, after all, it is one of the top 20 big families in Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng was once a second-tier city, and now it is a new first-tier city.
In terms of economy, Jiangcheng is not a top city in the country, and even among many provincial capitals, the sense of existence is low.
If the Lu family is the first family in Jiangcheng, maybe Shen Lei will pay a little attention to it, after all, it is the leader of a family business in the city, and he still has to give some respect.
However, the Lu family is only in the top 20, and it is not in the forefront, but only at the level of the midstream......
So in Shen Lei's eyes, the Lu family is just like that, it is a prominent family in Jiangcheng, if it weren't for Lu Xia, he shouldn't have any dealings with this family.
In fact, Shen Lei also understands Lu Hao's thoughts.
In Lu Hao's eyes, Shen Lei is just an ordinary person, with a salary of 6,000, trying to blend into the Lu family through Lu Xia, and be prosperous and rich for a lifetime.
In this case, from Lu Hao's standpoint, he will definitely not agree.
Marriage is about a good match, and it is an established cruel fact that any wealthy family will not allow their children to fall in love with a poor man without any special skills.
What is Marriage?
It is the union of the interests of two families, with the aim of creating greater benefits with interests.
Some people may not believe in this view, thinking that when love reaches a certain level, it will enter the palace of marriage.
This is certainly a good thing to be blessed with.
However, this situation will most likely only appear in ordinary people.
But even if it is true love, when they get married, the two families will calculate their interests clearly, and now in this world, the man has no house, so he basically doesn't want to get married.
In addition to the house, there are also bride prices in different provinces, starting at about 100,000 yuan, and even more than 300,000 yuan in some areas.
If you meet a woman with a conscience, you may make up some dowry, or send a car to the newlywed family, after all, the economic pressure can't all be borne by the man's family, right?
In this way, even if you meet a conscientious woman's family, in the matter of marriage, the man still suffers a little loss, and it seems a little unreasonable to pay more.
From an emotional point of view, it is indeed very unreasonable.
From an economic point of view, however, it all makes sense again.
Because of the Chinese marriage market alone, women are in short supply.
Today, when the ratio of men and women is gradually out of balance, even if the top level in China has made corresponding policies, there will still be 30 million young men who are singles, which is a very exaggerated data, and this data continues to exaggerate.
In such a situation, the supply of women exceeds demand, and if you don't cherish your sister, a lot of other men will flock to you.
Therefore, the status of men in the family and society is low and low, and the man has to buy a house and give a bride price when he gets married, otherwise the marriage will not be concluded, you will not get married, and there will be a large number of people rushing to tie the knot, which is such a simple logical relationship.
Of course, there are no absolutes in everything, the above is just a universal phenomenon, and there are also couples who put true love first, which is very rare in society and worthy of praise.
Young people may not take these into account when dealing with objects and talking about feelings, but when it comes to talking about marriage, the distribution of interests hidden in the shadows has to be put on the surface.
There are so many things about the distribution of marital interests among ordinary people, not to mention the marriage between large families, that is, pure cooperation of interests.
The children of these big families met a few times when they were young, and they had an impression of each other, and when the time came, the two high-level leaders felt that their interests were compatible, so they arranged for young people of the right age to get married.
Different from ordinary people's marriages, the marriage of a large family is often a higher status of the man, because the family property is generally handed over to the man to take care of and inherit, and in this regard, the big family is still very traditional.
So the young people of the big family, before you get married, you mess around casually, it's all okay, as long as it's not too discredited, basically no one will care about you.
But if you reach the age of marriage and the upper echelons of the family make a decision to marry a child of a certain family who is a good match, then you have to restrain yourself, at least for that time, you can't mess around.
Even if you haven't even seen the other person's face, you have to bite the bullet, unless you have to forcibly disobey the wishes of the family, the consequences are very serious.
Just like Lu Xia, because she refused to hand over the management of Qingxia Pharmaceutical, this move disobeyed the wishes of the family, so she was excluded and marginalized within the family.
Lu Xia can be self-sufficient, so even if she is marginalized, it will not have much material impact on her, because now she does not need additional financial support from her family, but she is an emotional person, and the estrangement of the family makes her always feel lonely.
But other people are different, their property is provided by the family, and once they are punished by the family, all the property will be handed over to other clansmen.
At the same time, the family will cut off their financial resources, let them self-reflect, and when they reflect clearly, they will be obedient and obedient, and no longer go against the wishes of the family, when they will resume financial support.
Of course, family marriage is not so cruel, for the children of a big family who have had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, it is impossible to be bound by marriage, and from then on they will be well-behaved and no longer look for flowers and willows, which is impossible.
Just like those celebrity couples on TV, maintain superficial intimacy, show affection and sprinkle dog food in public, and basically play their own games in private, you look for your little white face, I look for my little fox, everyone knows it and does not interfere with each other.
These ways of playing are all secret things between big families, and everyone knows it in their hearts.
But it's also limited to two families of equal strength, the two parties play around, their private lives are chaotic, and because they are all standing behind their respective families, they have nothing to fear each other, so they won't make much noise.
But if the strength of the two is not equal, then there is no play.
This kind of private play, which is limited to large families, ordinary people don't want to dare to think about it, let alone participate in it.
So marriage is a very important thing, the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is romantic because it is rare, but if you really take this as the standard for the relationship between men and women, it means that it is still too naïve.
In Lu Hao's eyes, her sister Lu Xia can find a couple, and she has indeed reached the age of marriage, after all, she is 24 years old.
But at least you have to find a young man with a little bit of strength, right?
For a person like Shen Lei with a monthly salary of 6,000, Lu Hao thinks it's better to forget it, the gameplay is different, so as not to humiliate Shen Lei.
Of course, Lu Hao knows Lu Xia's personality very well, and she is not the kind of person who will play around after marriage, but he thinks that if Shen Lei enters the Lu family, in such an environment, with Shen Lei's three views of ordinary people, I am afraid it will be difficult to accept this hypocritical and polite atmosphere.
Moreover, the people of the Lu family basically look down on a person who has come to a wealthy background, although they are financially satisfied, but the mental humiliation is not something that ordinary people can bear.
