Chapter 118: Achievements and Social Change (I)
Liu Aiguo is a person who can adapt to the times and respond to the call of society, for example, he followed the trend of the times a year ago and resigned to 'go to the sea'.
In the current society where the iron rice bowl is king, most of the people who go to the sea are suspended without pay, and his extraordinary behavior obviously makes him suffer a lot of discrimination.
However, thanks to the blessing of the times, just as those who build missiles are not as good as those who sell tea and eggs, although they have lived a hard time, Liu Aiguo soon made a fortune and became a '10,000 yuan household' that everyone is jealous of, and his life is not as chic as ordinary two.
What others dare not buy, he dares to buy, what others can't afford to enjoy, he enjoys it every day, goes out and drives a tiger head to Ben, and deals with all kinds of people every day under the red gaze of his neighbors, and entertains countless people.
He also enjoyed this kind of redness, and he felt that it was really good that he decided to resign decisively and leave no way back.
He was already planning to move out of here as soon as possible, although Liu Aiguo enjoyed the eyes of his neighbors, he always felt that he was different from them, his identity and status were different, and living with this group of mud-legged people was very inconsistent with his identity.
This matter was already on his agenda.
He has even said that within half a month at most, he will move out of this dilapidated place and buy a newly developed good house to live in.
Naturally, this has made most of the family members of four or five people still crammed into a small two-room house, and the neighbors are very angry.
But he recently discovered that the wind was not in a different direction.
In the past two days, everyone no longer talked about what he ate, what he was wearing, where he went, and how high the price of cigarettes, alcohol, and electrical appliances he brought home every day, but gathered together and talked in a whisper.
Even when he saw him coming in and out, he looked at him with a look of contempt that he hadn't felt for a long time.
It was as if he was an inferior person, very different from their status.
The invisible discrimination made him sleep badly every day, he was a person who was easy to pretend to be in his heart, and he couldn't help but start thinking about it when he was lying in bed at night.
This also made his spirit more and more decadent, causing several orders of business to go wrong, and a large amount of money was lost like flowing water.
In the past few days, he has felt that the meat is not fragrant.
He decided that he must inquire about what had happened to make the neighbors' attitudes change so drastically and become so ...... Uncanny.
When he was free to cool off in the afternoon, he spotted a few housewives chatting and carrying a bag of things into the yard with a smile.
With a smile on his face, Liu Aiguo was sad in his heart, these housewives who are usually the most gossip and snobbish don't even look at him, obviously, what new policies does the government have recently?
This is not surprising, although he is in business, the best at inquiring, but this yard lives, but either the family of state-owned enterprises, or state-owned enterprise employees, think he Liu Aiguo did not resign, but also a well-organized state-owned enterprise employee, at that time, the matchmaker almost broke through the threshold of his family, but when he resigned, those matchmakers never went to his door again, even if they now make money and become a 10,000 yuan household, few matchmakers took the initiative to help him introduce.
Liu Aiguo knew in his heart that even if the state-owned enterprise employee couldn't get much salary in a month, and he didn't earn more than a day a year, but it was popular, and the girl's family recognized it.
On the contrary, he, a 10,000-yuan household, is very good, but he knows that there are many people who are watching his jokes coldly.
However, in the end, men still have to have money in their pockets, so that they can have confidence.
comforting himself like this, Liu Aiguo had already walked up to the chatting housewives trio.
At that time, he gave a warm smile like a father-in-law: "Alas, isn't this Sister-in-law Cai, Aunt Liu, and Sister Wen, what are you talking about." ”
As soon as he spoke, the three of them immediately closed their mouths, lowered their heads and knitted the sweater in their hands, as if they were intermittently deaf and did not hear him speak at all.
Liu Aiguo secretly hated, although he was not very popular some time ago, he was often greeted when he talked to this group of housewives, and sure enough, people's hearts are not ancient.
Liu Aiguo thought so, but he didn't care about it at all, as if what had just happened at all, he snorted and continued: "Sister-in-law Cai, when I was eating alone yesterday, I suddenly remembered that I was busy with work late at night, and I didn't cook, and I didn't have anything to sell outside. ”
He peeked at it, and sure enough, the tightness and coldness on Sister-in-law Cai's face relaxed slightly, and there was a look of memory in her eyes.
"I passed by the supermarket today, saw this box of chocolates, and instantly remembered Sister-in-law Cai, your son, no, be careful, Sister-in-law Cai, you must accept it!"
After saying that, she couldn't help refusing and immediately stuffed it into her arms.
Sister-in-law Cai shirked a few times, but she couldn't resist Liu Aiguo's strength, so she couldn't push it out, so she had to accept it a little embarrassed.
"Aunt Liu, the weather has been getting cooler these days, and it is just convenient for me to go on a business trip, so I brought you a scarf, you always tie it around your neck, and it just so happens that the back of your neck will not catch a cold."
When Liu Aiguo stuffed it this time, the older woman insisted on not accepting it, which made Cai's sister-in-law blush, and she took out the chocolate in her arms and returned it to Liu Aiguo.
Liu Aiguo was anxious in an instant, if something can't be delivered, how to resolve grievances, how to make people speak? He had offended them a lot before!
In this hurry, his mind circled in his stomach a few times, and he immediately thought of a way, and he instantly forced a look of amazement: "Aunt Liu, I know you still complain about me, the first few times I was my little Liu was not good, and when I made some money, I swelled, so I forgot about my book, and said a lot of words to the elders in the yard who didn't know how thick the sky was." ”
"It's just that Xiao Liu is bitter in my heart, impulsively, I resigned and went to the sea, I have no establishment, and I have become a person without identity, I am looked down upon everywhere, this makes a little money, I am enchanted in my heart, and I can't speak, I have only recently recovered, you know, Aunt Liu is a person who has hugged me and watched me grow up, can you still not know me."
After a bittersweet memory, Aunt Liu's hand of resignation was slowly put down, no longer so resolute, and let Liu Aiguo put things in front of her.
"And Sister Wen, I sent me a good pen before, everyone in the neighborhood, who doesn't know my hand like a dog, I don't need this thing at all, but the eldest brother's words are really good-looking, that is calligraphy! This is just the right fit for him! ”
