My aunt thought about it and deliberately asked, "Is this really the case when the boy is on a blind date?" ”
The aunt said, "Yes." There is now a serious imbalance in the ratio of men and women in the blind date market. You see, almost all of us here are parents who help their daughters come on blind dates. Do you know how to cut it? ”
As soon as this topic opened, when it came to the phenomenon of more women and fewer men in the blind date corner, the old people who had just been quiet for a while began to discuss it again:
"That's normal, isn't it...... Because women always want to look up, but men always want to look down, so women can't find what they are satisfied with, so they take the initiative to stay....... ”
"It's really such a common phenomenon in society now."
"The so-called 'leftover women' are mostly because the other party's conditions do not meet the minimum standards, and the little girls will not settle casually."
"--------, little girl is understandable to do this, but it's actually right."
"I think the urgency of girls' parents may also be an aspect."
"On the other hand, many young men with slightly worse conditions may not be willing to come out to find them."
"Besides, there are always few excellent boys in society. Even if there were, many of them had girlfriends in college. ”
"------, or girls' standards are too high, they have to be high, they have to be handsome, they have to study well, they have strong ability, they have a good personality, and they can meet these requirements, of course, there are few."
Everyone has their own words, and whoever says them sounds like they all make sense.
"To be honest, after a long time, we can sometimes tell which are the male parents and which are the female parents." The first aunt sighed, "The remaining men and women are very realistic now." In addition to having a feeling, it also depends on the salary, the house, and the appearance------, all of which are indispensable. ”
Wang Youjie didn't really fall asleep.
He was not in a very good mood in the first place, but now he was chirping beside the old grandfathers and old ladies like this, and he couldn't help but feel a little noisy.
After thinking about it, he slowly stood up.
Rub your eyes and look around you: there are people everywhere, but everywhere is the same. Wang Youjie thought for a while and said, "Auntie, let's go, right?" ”
"I don't want to see it." The uncle stood up and said with a joke: "It's all here, haven't you finished reading it yet?" ”
My aunt also helped to speak: "I have to continue to walk in a circle, even if it is to learn from the experience." ”
There was no way, Wang Youjie had no choice but to follow behind his aunt and uncle, and walked in while looking hard.
However, what Wang Youjie didn't expect once again was that there was an international section of the blind date corner in the innermost part------ "Overseas Corner".
It turns out that the "overseas corner" here is specially prepared for parents whose children live abroad, such as Australia, Singapore, the United States, New Zealand, etc., which are all popular countries for Chinese to choose to settle overseas.
Imagine:
Two single Chinese men and women who also live in Australia may first meet their parents in Shanghai People's Park on this side of the ocean, and then harvest fate on the other side of the ocean, which can also be described as the strange side of the global life of Chinese people!
Wang Youjie couldn't help but sigh: "Are you serious? I really admire the people of Shanghai. Doing anything is not sloppy at all, and it is very international. ”
When they stopped at the overseas corner, several uncles and aunts came up to greet them, but they all walked away disappointed after hearing Wang Youjie's age. "Too small, my daughter is older than yours".
There is a kind and polite aunt who came over to ask Wang Youjian if he could leave a phone number, and contact him after there was a suitable "match".
Wang Youjie was surprised by the aunt's statement: The marriage agency?
The aunt seemed surprised by his reaction, explaining: "Don't worry, young man, we are all retirees with decent jobs in the city, and we pity our parents all over the world." ”
Wang Youjie thought about it, but politely refused.
At this time, there are more and more people who come to the blind date: old, young, men, women,...... All of them.
What's even funnier is that I found that two foreign young ladies were also looking for boyfriends here, looking left and right in front of the hanging blind date materials.
Wang Youjie was curious, and at the instigation of his aunt, he walked over and tried to chat with them.
Both of these young ladies are British. Wang Youjie asked, don't you have any boyfriends?
Unexpectedly, both of them said yes.
Wang Youjie was taken aback, but he was even more curious, and then asked, since you have a boyfriend, why are you here?
One of the young ladies pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "In order to find a better one." ”
For the young lady's undisguised and concise answer, Wang Youjie was so impressed that he threw himself on the ground.
As he was talking, he suddenly heard someone crying behind him.
Wang Youjie hurriedly turned around, only to see a lot of people surrounding under a small camphor tree. That's where the cry came from.
Not knowing what was going on, Wang Youjiesan hurriedly walked over.
Through the gap in the human wall, he saw an old lady with gray hair sitting on the curbstone, crying and wiping her tears with her hands. There is also a sealed A4 paper and a walking stick next to it. Looking at the old lady's appearance, she should have come here to find a partner for her children.
The crowd of onlookers pointed and said.
After listening a lot, Wang Youjie finally knew a rough idea.
It turned out that the old lady had been looking for a partner for her daughter here for two or three years. In the past two or three years, every Sunday, no matter how windy or rainy, she will basically come here to give her daughter a blind date and look for opportunities.
It's just that I don't know what happened today, or who said something, or who was despised, in front of the public, the old lady couldn't think about it for a while, so she sat on the ground and cried.
The people next to him were still talking.
"It's too late. If it was seven or eight years earlier, with her daughter's condition, it is estimated that the male baby would have to queue up for a long time. ”
An old man was even more anxious: "What is the use of seeing her child studying for a master's degree, or abroad?" ”
"Yes, girls don't need to read too many books, it's good to study a junior college or undergraduate. Getting married, getting married and having a child, it's quite stable, how good. ”
"I've read a lot of books, and I've delayed myself, and the current market is very difficult to match, quite difficult to match!"
When Wang Youjie heard the people around him say this, he seemed to empathize, and he felt very sorry for the old lady who was still crying.
He thought, maybe it's sad about his daughter's marriage, maybe it's sad that his daughter's marriage and love are depreciating, maybe it's anxiety that the new fate is delayed, otherwise how can a middle-aged and elderly aunt with rich life experience can't control her emotions and cry in public with so many people?
An old man on the side waved his hand and said in a loud voice, so girls must not be admitted to graduate school, because it will be difficult to find a man after taking the graduate school examination.
Wang Youjie looked at the old man incomprehensibly.
The old man smiled and explained to himself: "Here, the male is the bank card, and if you have money, you can buy a house, so the female is the real estate." You look at the photos of the old lady and the child, she looks okay, she has studied and has never been married, this room type should be okay. But her child is old, 34 years old, so her house can only be regarded as a suburban house. ”
After Wang Youjie listened, he did not make a sound. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Hey, I really pity the hearts of parents all over the world.
