This generation (61)

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Jin Siyuan followed Cheng Dan and took a fourteen-hour train to Qingsheng.

Sitting on the train and looking at the scenery full of the ravines and loess, Jin Siyuan was still nervous, "Is your father awesome? Is your mother awesome?"

Cheng Dan hugged his arm and laughed, "Not fierce! Not fierce at all! I said that I called, don't be afraid."

OK! If you are not afraid, don’t be afraid.

The Cheng Dan family's conditions are actually not bad, in a small county town. But if you want to say how good the conditions are, there is no. Your parents are logistics workers in government units, and they are steadily receiving income and there is no risk of losing their jobs. But if you want to say how rich they are, there is no. However, the grandmother at home used to be a teacher, and the salary of retired teachers is more than that of working, so the old lady's salary alone is still successful.

But the only bad thing is that the family is not happy that Cheng Dan will go so far away, but still get married.

Therefore, after Cheng Siyuan left, his parents may not be very enthusiastic.

According to the planned route given by the family, I hope Cheng Dan will come back to work in the government agency or teach in school. Then I will find a partner in similar situations and be close to home. Isn’t this good?

As a result, after graduation, I asked for it three times and four times, but I just didn't come back. I came back this time and brought a young man. I said on the phone that I would come back to meet the parents and then plan to get married.

Grandma Cheng said to her granddaughter with Jin Siyuan on her back, "You are still too young, so it's not easy to marry far away. After being wronged, who do you tell me? If something happens, who can help you? Children, when you arrive at someone's house, you can point to only one person. The others are his relatives, without you! It's better to meet a good family. If you can't meet a good family, your child will really fall into the pit. You have nowhere to cry."

Cheng Dan felt, "I met a good family!" She told her grandma everything she saw and heard from the Jin family.

But Grandma Cheng's eyebrows were even more tight, "The eldest daughter-in-law is a state-owned enterprise, and her father is still in the position. His eldest son has to rely on his father to support him. So how can a parent-in-law be wrong with his eldest daughter-in-law? The second daughter-in-law is from the hometown, but there is no outstanding place, so no one dares to go too far when he goes to the husband's family. What's more, people have to look, be capable, have a lot of money, and be decent. If such a daughter-in-law is picked, what kind of thing they want to marry? A fairy!" She paused and said, "Compare with others, what's our family?"

Cheng Dan felt that grandma was saying that she was ugly in disguise, "I can be considered as having a good facial features."

Is this the point? The point is that your work is unstable and you will be far away from your parents' home in the future. You say you are doing business, good! What should you do if you have a child when you do business? If your parents can't count on it, you have to rely on your parents-in-law. If your parents-in-law help you, you have to be under one roof. Under one roof, there will be many conflicts. If your parents-in-law don't help you, tell me what you plan to do? If someone takes care of you, you are not at ease. If you take care of yourself, how can you work?

What does it mean to be exhausted? You will not be able to understand it if you are not old.

In fact, Cheng Dan felt that what his grandmother said made sense, and there was indeed such a risk. But this was not seen by the Jin family, and if he saw him, it would definitely change.

Jin Siyuan couldn't tell the dissatisfaction of others. He invited him with great sincerity, "Before the start of school, go to City A. It's not too far. The train will arrive in about ten hours."

He now rents a two-bedroom house with Cheng Dan in an old resident yard. One is Cheng Dan’s studio.

The two of them also made money, but this is how they do business. They kept moving forward, and money turned into materials and goods. Life may not be easy, but it is not said to be a shortage of money. Now that they are in the initial stage, they really cannot give Cheng Dan more.

Cheng Dan’s parents may have been used to it at work. Let’s look at people, first check if there is a formal job. As for the so-called decoration and clothing that cannot be seen in the future, it feels like they are not doing their jobs.

Dad Cheng said, "You have to be steady when you live. In this business, you have to make a profit and lose money. It's better to be more stable. Have you ever thought about taking the civil service exam? It's also a good direction."

Jin Siyuan never thought that civil servants earn just a little, unless the family pays to buy a house, otherwise they will really not be able to survive.

Cheng's mother also said: "It's okay to find a school to teach. Civil servants, teachers, and doctors, except for these three industries, nothing else is stable."

Before Jin Siyuan could speak, Cheng Dan became anxious, "You are old thoughts."

It’s not that you are too young, but that you are too young! This business is so easy to do? What is ups and downs mean is that you do business. I have never heard of any business doing smoothly. We don’t ask my daughter to be rich and prosperous, but we just want to be steady and meet as we want. Is there anything wrong?

But he didn't expect Jin Siyuan to answer, "I'll take the exam!"

Cheng Dan looked at him, he smiled, and if he continued, Cheng Dan and his family would be upset. At this time, someone had to take a step back. She could push him up to the family, so why couldn't he take a step back for this girl?

Take a step back first, take one step at a time.

Cheng Dan turned around and took the coat and pulled Jin Siyuan, "Let's go!"

Grandma Cheng quickly stopped her, "Your dad is teasing you, why are you still taking it seriously?" She could only go back like this.

Dad Cheng pulled Jin Siyuan, "Sit down! Just ask your future plans. Dandan is so angry." He sighed in his heart. If this young man is stubborn, he still has something to say. You can tell his daughter, look, this is not really marrying you. He refuses to make any concessions. But this kid is quick and he immediately said he wants to take the exam. It's true that his daughter is even more devoted. This is what his parents can't hold on. It's really bad that his daughter leaves like this.

He pulled back again, "Of course, your aunt and I are both old-fashioned and can't keep up with the situation. You young people nowadays are all about starting their own businesses, and I don't understand them very much. Come on, tell me, how do you do this..."

He brought the topic back.

Jin Siyuan talked about the decoration tricks and prospects in detail, including what he has been doing since graduation. He heard that he was working as a small worker, knowing where to get sand, knowing how much it costs to transport sand, then waterproofing, then electrician and woodworking... all kinds of building materials were very sensible. Cheng's father was stunned and felt that it was three-point reliable.

He thought to himself that he was still old, and he wouldn't work for two years at a young age, so he would come back. Both of them had good education and were from prestigious schools. Even if they came back, they could find a job as a teacher here. After all, they were remote here and there were still teaching supporters every year. If not, even the son-in-law came back together, and worked in the teaching position for one year, and then transferred back to the county town, which was not impossible.

As I thought about it, I agreed to go to A City.

So, just after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Jin Siyuan called the Fourth Master to help him order a place to eat. He really didn't know if he could make a reservation for the New Year.

As soon as he heard the meaning, the Fourth Master knew, "Then come on, I'll make arrangements."

As a result, Liu Ya and Jin Siheng were having dinner here. Liu Ya immediately said, "Our unit has a hospitality hotel. I'll go and set the price appropriately. Don't worry, I'll do it."

I booked a large suite, which is the kind that can be accommodated in two bedrooms. There is a catering department downstairs, and it also contracts banquets for all kinds of private rooms. The family went to the hotel in advance, and then the Fourth Master drove to the station to pick up people.

No matter how unhappy I feel, seeing the man is so serious, I feel more comfortable. At least I can tell that this family still attaches importance to my daughter or to marry my family.

Jin Shuangxi hurriedly said, "I'm rude! I should go there myself. If there are elders at home, we must go with us."

In fact, I must have called my son first. Only after I see him can we come to propose marriage. Now in this situation, I can only take the wrong things on myself. Besides, there is a different custom, and it is different from each other. I don’t know what other people pay attention to! Anyway, the woman will do what she says. This is the tacit decision between Jin Shuangxi and Su Huan.

While eating, he was talking about gossip. Cheng's mother seemed to have an unintentional question, "The housing prices on our side are cheap, how are you doing here? There are many in the provincial capital city."

If you buy it a little bit, it will definitely be a little cheaper. Liu Ya said, "The focus is on building a university town now. That is the key development direction in the future. I think I have to buy a house there. My colleague got married before, so I bought it there. The house is not big, it is over-sized, 70 square meters, a total of more than 220,000 yuan, with a down payment of 30% and 70,000 yuan. We are discussing these days. Only the third child in the family is not married, but he has just graduated. It is a force to ask them to buy it by themselves. Xiaotong and I discussed that the family will pay 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and then pay the down payment first..."

She is the eldest sister-in-law, and she took the initiative to mention this.

Actually, I didn’t discuss it with Lin Yutong before, but I also know that Lin Yutong doesn’t care about that little money.

The key is that Liu Ya can figure it out clearly. If two sisters-in-law get 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, then you can no longer mention the bride price.

Grandma Cheng sighed in her heart, it would be nice if the woman didn't show up! She had no retirement salary, but she didn't have much money. She had two grandchildren. She couldn't save it! However, the grandfather of the children had some savings, but she didn't have much money. She just replied, "If two children have a family, they have to help their relatives. In the future, they will pay back the amount they have. If not, I don't want..."

The old lady is also very smart, meaning that if my granddaughter has no money in the future, the money you paid cannot be considered a loan. If you don’t pay it back, don’t feel that you owe you.

Liu Ya smiled, "Of course! But don't underestimate these two people. Isn't this going to be a shame?" She said generously, "This money is for you to buy a house. If you don't mention paying it back, Cheng Dan will have a younger brother to get married in the future. If you have a wealthy life in the future, you will add some more. As for us, when our Doudou gets married in the future, his uncle will have to add a big one."

Cheng Dan teased Doudou, "When the time comes, your uncle won't have to worry about you, and your aunt will buy you a suite. Not only for you, but also for your aunt's belly, but also for the little guy with your aunt's belly..."

Liu Ya grabbed the broad beans in the plate and threw them to Cheng Dan, "What are you talking about?"
