After walking aimlessly on the street for 1 hour, a cold wind mixed with the dust from the roadside construction site blew into his eyes, and two tears finally rolled down the corners of Xiao Ming's eyes.

It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, and the 38-year-old Xiao Ming has never shed tears since he can remember. Not to mention crying on the street like this. But this time, Xiao Ming didn't want to hide his tears at all, and the two tears hung stubbornly on his cheeks, which seemed to show the world his unwillingness, regret and despair.

One hour ago, Xiao Ming was kicked out of the house by his wife and a pair of children. Xiao Ming, I can't figure it out, it changed overnight.

Xiao Ming was born in a small township in Hubei, and his parents went out to work in Shenzhen when he was young, leaving him to be raised by his grandmother. Every time his parents sent money back and called the house of the neighbor's village director, they would tell him that his parents had no education outside the home and it was not easy to earn money, so he must study hard.

Xiao Ming is also very sensible, he only focuses on studying, other children go fishing, touching shrimp, and playing games during the holidays, he only reads and doesn't care about other things. He may be what people call a small-town problem-solver, who studied hard for 12 years and finally went to a key 985 university in the province. After graduating, it was natural for me to come to Shenzhen, the city where my parents worked.

Three months ago, he was a programmer in the Goose Factory, with a high salary, and he was busy with code every day. At that time, he was the envy of many people, with a house, a car, and a pair of lovely children. However, life is always full of uncertainties.

On a seemingly calm afternoon, he received a call from the company. A sudden storm of layoffs made him, an old employee who had been working for more than ten years, lose his job.

In the beginning, he felt very unfair because he had been working hard and had never missed a single opportunity to work overtime. However, the reality is cruel, and he has no time to sort out his unwilling emotions and has to face the reality of unemployment. Having lost his job, he was particularly stressed.

3 years ago, for the arrival of his son, Xiao Ming gritted his teeth and replaced a three-room degree house in Nanshan District with a total price of 12 million. The monthly payment is 25,000 yuan, plus various expenses such as training classes for daughters and sons, family living expenses, etc., and costs nearly 50,000 yuan a month.

Xiao Ming's annual salary before was one million, and he could barely cope with it. Now that I am unemployed, I look at the already small amount of savings, and my expenses are getting smaller and smaller every month. Xiao Ming became more and more anxious.

He knew he had to pick himself up and get a job as soon as possible. For his family, for his children. He began to look for new job opportunities, but found that the market was extremely competitive. Although he has many years of work experience in large factories, the general environment this year is not good, and there are layoffs and job hunting like him everywhere. The age of 38 has become his biggest disadvantage.

Although he has repeatedly lowered his salary expectations, he cannot do so because he has to support his family. I've been looking for a job for 2 months and haven't found a job yet. Xiao Ming gradually began to have insomnia, and it was difficult to fall asleep for nearly a month, and he finally fell asleep, and woke up after sleeping for less than 4 hours, with a terrible headache.

Today, on the weekend, there is no interview, and Xiao Ming wants to take a nap in bed. But when he thought of the monthly expenses at home, Xiao Ming couldn't sleep for a long time. Finally, I was in a daze and seemed to be sleeping in a non-sleeping room, and I heard the sound of my wife and daughter arguing in the next room.

It turned out that the wife asked her daughter to practice the piano, but the daughter didn't want to practice and wanted to go down to play, and the wife told her daughter that she had to practice the piano at home in the afternoon. The daughter said that she and her friends had made an appointment to play in the afternoon.

Who knew that this sentence poured his wife's hair. The wife suddenly yelled at her daughter in a rage, "Play and play, you know how to play all day long." The daughter was so frightened by her wife that she cried loudly.

Seeing this, Xiao Ming pulled his wife and said, why are you talking so loudly to your children, don't you just don't want to practice? If you don't want to practice, you won't practice.

When his wife heard Xiao Ming say this, she was even more annoyed, and pushed Xiao Ming away and said. If you don't want to practice, you won't practice, what you said is easy, the piano tuition fee for the previous 2 years was 50,000 yuan and the piano was 20,000 yuan, and it cost a total of 70,000 yuan to stop learning, isn't that a waste?

Since his wife said this, Xiao Ming had long wanted to communicate with his wife about the children's training class. The wife enrolled her daughter in piano, calligraphy, dance, and English classes, and her son enrolled in robotics, Go, and thinking training classes. 1-2 months of phone bills per month, Xiao Ming used to have a job, but now he has no job, even if he finds a job, the estimated salary will be greatly reduced. Xiao Ming wanted to discuss with his wife early in the morning to reduce the children's training classes. Children's energy is limited, and it is better to learn 1-2 interest classes than to learn a bunch of them randomly.

Now he and his wife have no jobs, a monthly mortgage of 20,005, and a pair of children have more places to spend. Money is spent where it counts. In the future, children who are not interested in training courses do not need to attend, only 1-2 courses are good to learn.

When his wife heard this, she was even more unhappy, and felt that Xiao Ming was complaining that she was spending money indiscriminately, so she yelled at Xiao Ming: "The house is not what I want to buy, and the second child is not what I want to give birth to." It wasn't that you told me at the beginning that you had an annual salary of one million, and you tried your best to persuade me to let me go home and have a second child with peace of mind, you can afford it. Now that I'm unemployed, it's all my fault that I don't work, and I spend money indiscriminately. ”

The wife's loud roar woke up her son, who was napping in the next room, and he began to cry. Xiao Ming was even more upset, Xiao Ming couldn't help the grievances in his heart, and said loudly to his wife: "Then I didn't force you to have a second child, you can not have a second child, you can not have a child." I regret dying now, if it weren't for the sake of my children, I wouldn't have listened to you at all to buy a degree house, and now I have become a pick-up man. The monthly payment is 25,000 yuan, and he has worked for the bank for 30 years. ”

Seeing Xiao Ming like this, his wife was so angry that she dropped the piano book in her hand, crying and shouting loudly for Xiao Ming to get out. The daughter and son also looked at Xiao Ming in surprise, they didn't know what was going on at home, why their father, who had always liked them, would say something regretting giving birth to them.

The daughter's eyes stared at Xiao Ming like a knife, and the son shouted bad father, bad father in his mouth.

Xiao Ming was so angry that he didn't have time to change his shoes and ran out of the house. After leaving the house, I found that I didn't have my mobile phone with me, and I had nowhere to go.

Four years ago, Xiao Ming returned to his hometown of Hubei for the New Year, and his parents slaughtered chickens and sheep to prepare a grand reunion dinner, inviting brothers and sisters on both sides of his parents and their children to participate. The parents seemed to be just to say at the table that Xiao Ming was now promoted and raised, and the envious eyes of everyone at the moment when his annual salary was one million.

At that time, Xiao Ming also enjoyed the feeling of everyone holding the moon with the stars, but then his aunt's words became a spell that Xiao Ming could not linger in his life.

My aunt said: "Xiao Ming now has an annual salary of one million, he should have a second child as soon as possible, and the children are all made up of the word "good". Although the parents heard it, they smiled and didn't say much. But since then, his parents have called Xiao Ming every once in a while, telling them about those relatives and elementary school classmates in his hometown, many of whom are both children and daughters.

Gradually, Xiao Ming also moved his mind, thinking that he had an annual salary of one million and no special pressure to raise 2 children. So I asked my wife, who works in a private kindergarten, to go home to prepare for pregnancy. Originally, his wife disagreed, saying that she had to wait until her daughter went to kindergarten before she could go to work. If she gives birth to a second child, she may find it difficult to return to the workplace.

But Xiao Ming imprinted this sentence in his heart, and tried his best to persuade his wife, saying that the kindergarten salary was several thousand yuan a month low, and he had to take care of dozens of children, and he would be angry when he met parents who didn't understand. How good it is to go home and give birth to children and raise their own children, and to be filial to 2 children when they are old!

At that time, he was less than 35 years old, with an annual salary of one million, and his life was proud and high-spirited. His wife left his job to have a second child, bought a degree house, made up a good word, and when he went home for the New Year, no one envied Xiao Ming, saying that he was a big winner in life.

Seeing him rise up a tall building, seeing his building collapse! Who would have thought that in just four years, Xiao Ming would be reduced to the streets and homeless.
