After Wang Youjie finished speaking, the room fell into a long silence again.

Everyone basically remained in their original position. Bu Li's two eyes looked at his mother for a while, and Wang Youjie for a while, and his mood was extremely complicated, and he had mixed feelings.

It seemed that after a long time, Bouli's mother finally calmed down. She beckoned to Wang Youjie and motioned for him to stop standing and sit down and talk first.

Wang Youjie looked at Bu Li's expression, and then hesitated and half sat down.

But Buli looked at her mother nervously again, not knowing what she would say next or what kind of final "decision" she would make.

Mother Brie began to speak, in a calm tone. She said: "Xiao Wang, first of all, thank you for telling the truth and not lying to me, an old lady." However, I just want to ask you a few more words, shall I? ”

Wang Youjie thought about it, nodded and said, "Auntie, please speak." ”

Buli's mother thought for a while and said, "First sentence, do you particularly feel in your heart that our Shanghai mother-in-law is asking too much and seems too utilitarian?" ”

Wang Youjie didn't expect Buli's mother to be so direct when she asked. Don't dare to answer.

"For example, even though we have a house in our own family, we also require the man to have three bedrooms and two living rooms, and it must be in the city center. Do you know why? ”

Without waiting for Wang Youjie to answer, Buli's mother asked herself and said, "It's actually very simple, we don't rub oil, but we don't want to be rubbed with oil either!" ”

Wang Youjie was silent.

"As a mother, of course, she attaches great importance to her daughter's marriage, so she is very picky about her future son-in-law. There's nothing wrong with finding a partner who first has to go through our parents' hurdle, right? ”

"Xiao Wang, you may not know much, to a certain extent, finding a son-in-law actually represents our Shanghai mother's expectations for her daughter's life.

For example, if the mother-in-law in Shanghai had married a good man when she was young, she would have said, 'Daughter, you have to be like me, you must look at the man.' If she marries a bad man, she will definitely say, 'You should never be like me again, feelings are fake, material things are real'.

Reflected in reality, it is often the mother-in-law who oversteps her to ask for a house, car, and tickets for her daughter, and is even more critical of her hairy son-in-law, making such and such naked requests.

Therefore, you children, especially outsiders like you, may think that our mother-in-law in Shanghai is very utilitarian. ”

Buli's mother thought for a while and said, "But Xiao Wang, you also have to admit that this actually shows a state of marriage and love in Shanghai from another side. ”

Wang Youjie and Buli were silent.

Speaking of which, it connects to the next sentence I want to ask, the right door is a must.

I don't know if you've ever been to the blind date corner in People's Square. In fact, in the blind date corner there, many of the children's elderly parents are looking for a blind date on behalf of their children.

But if you go to the scene and take a good look, you will find that judging from the social class of those "white-haired blind dates", there is absolutely no "rich second generation", "right second generation", "ridge second generation" and "military second generation". Some are roughly two types of people: the more affluent urban middle class as the protagonists, and the ordinary citizens as the foil.

In the blind date corner, the "marriage candidates" screened by parents for their children are all in the same social class, with the same economic level and education level, and the blind date corner also forms a "marriage circle" of the same social class. From the class stratification of the blind date, we can clearly see the class mobility. ”

"Also, what does 'Phoenix Man' mean, you should know, right?"

Buli's mother paused for a moment, and then said, "If you stay in Shanghai for a long time in the future, you may know that the entry threshold for Shanghai's marriage market is still relatively high, and the urban poor and "phoenix men" are basically excluded from the "intermarriage circle". ”

The king did not make a sound.

"Don't you say that I actually know that in recent years, Shanghai's mother-in-law has appeared frequently and become famous, especially in the eyes of young men like you who are stationed in Shanghai, Shanghai's mother-in-law may be a fish bone that pierces Rika in the throat in the flesh of the eye.

But let me tell you, my family is really good. Literate at the age of three, read at the age of five, and my aunt loves to hug her when she sees it, and she has not been noisy or noisy since she was a child. He started learning the violin at the age of seven, and his fingers almost froze off on nine cold days. Come obediently, squat at home after school, and don't run out at night; The school's conduct rankings are very good, and the grades are among the best. High school is the focus, and universities are even more famous, including studying abroad. ”

"We are never reluctant to let her go away, at home with fine clothes and food, filial piety is very good. If you have to marry someone, how can you give her away? ”

Speaking of this, Buli's mother also deliberately beat her chest. "Oh, I said it, I said that my heart was tormented. The world is really impermanent, and it will take a lifetime to live! ”

Wang Youjie was speechless for a while.

Buli's mother said these words, from the past to the future, from narrative to lyricism, logical and incomprehensible, how can Wang Youjie interject?

"Well, that's all big truth. Then Auntie will ask you another question, how did you get here today, the subway, the bus, or -----? Mother Brie asked again.

Wang Youjie thought for a while and replied, "I came from the subway." ----,I didn't buy a car. ”

"Buying a car is one thing, how much does a license plate cost in Shanghai, do you know?" Mother Brie asked.

Wang Youjie knows that Shanghai license plates are not only expensive, but also may not be able to shake the number. But how expensive it is, he doesn't know. He shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this. ”

"Look at ------?" Mother Buli let out a long sigh, and said in a change of voice, "Xiao Wang, I said so much just now, what do I mean, you should know, right?" ”

Wang Youjie thought about it and stood up again.

"Thank you!" He bowed to Buli's mother, turned his head to look at Buli for a while, and then picked up the suit jacket that hung on the back of the chair, turned and walked out.

Bree hesitated to stand up. Her mother glared at her, and sat down again.
