Chapter 694 How big is the gap?

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Aunt Li took the big apple and showed it to Cai Gen carefully.

"My son also gave it to me. He was the one who eliminated it, and it cost several thousand dollars.

Zi Tai, it’s inconvenient for me to watch. I usually answer phone calls or watch videos on the computer clearly.”

Well, it's quite retro, but also, Aunt Li is about the same age as my mother, over sixty, and her eyesight is very serious, and it is difficult to look at the mobile phone.

"Aunt Li, aren't Erlu doing quite well over there? Why don't you and my uncle go over there? How nice would it be to see your grandson?"

Aunt Li was a little reluctant to listen, her expression was not very good,

"There's no such thing as a two-donkey. You just need to bark and that's it. Now we all call him Mr. Ma.

When the child was born, I went to take care of him for a while, but then I really wasn’t used to life in a big city, so I came back.”

Big city?

Cai Gen has also stayed in that city for ten years. He is really not used to it and his happiness level is very poor. It is just that money is easier to earn and there are more opportunities.

"What are you not used to? How is it different when you get a pension salary?"

"My relatives and friends are all here. Erlu and his wife are busy at work. As soon as the child was sent to kindergarten, my eyes darkened and I didn't even say a word.

The climate is not good either, it is full of smog, and life is not as comfortable as our home here.

The four seasons are distinct, the summer is not hot, and the house is not cold in winter, and you live a long life.”

Let's just get by. Cai Gen tried to use empathy to compare whether he would follow Cai Tuantuan to other cities in the future. He was unwilling to go. That was his life, and it was not good to mess with him blindly.

"Also, big cities have high work pressure and fast pace of life, so they are not suitable for retirement."

The computer anti-virus was finished. There were indeed viruses, but not many, maybe seven or eight figures. Cai Gen didn't even count them. I restarted the computer, logged in to the software, and it was successful.

I tried sending videos to Erlu twice, but was hung up on both times. I quickly replied,

"In a meeting, see you at noon."

"Aunt Li, Erlu is in a meeting. I'm going to fix it now. You can video chat with him again at noon and I'm leaving."

Aunt Li pulled Cai Gen and held on tightly.

"Cai Gen, don't leave. The video was successful at noon. You can leave again. Otherwise, you have to come back and do it again.

Erlu is busy with work, so you have nothing to do when you go back, just wait here."

Wow, he is busy at work, and so am I. The store is always busy.

But if I felt the strength of the old lady's hand, it would not be like this unless I was helpless to a certain extent.

Cai Gen sat down again and waited for a while.

"What's Erlu doing now? It's almost the Chinese New Year, why are you still so busy?"

Aunt Li went to the kitchen to make two cups of tea before coming back and sitting on the sofa.

She turned on the royal mother-in-law mode, selling herself and boasting.

Just as I put down the teacup, the ground suddenly started to shake. It was brief but very strong.

"Why is there another mine earthquake? Didn't all production in the pit stop?"

Cai Gen didn't know how to respond to these words. If he was strong enough, he would be shaken, and the house wouldn't fall down.

Aunt Li looked in the direction of the pit with dissatisfaction. It had been many years since the mine had been shaken. She was really not used to it.

After wiping away the spilled tea, Aunt Li continued her old lady mode, very persistently.

"Erlu is really promising. When you took the exam and left, he failed the college entrance examination one after another. He thought he had no future.

It’s only been a few years, but we can already see the difference.”

gap?

Who is different from whom?

Cai Gen had to think more.

When you praise your son, why do you have to use me as a reference?

Cai Gen thought about the gap. How big was it?

"When I came back, wasn't he running a business selling computers?

When I was purchasing for my unit, I still looked for him, but now I don’t do it anymore?”

After Aunt Li's mode was turned on, she automatically ignored Cai Gen's words and entered her own world.

"Er Donkey, he's really awesome now. He's the CEO of a listed company. I can't figure out what industry he is in. It's all high-tech. He always goes abroad for inspections and so on.

One month's salary is more than what an average hotel earns in a year.

By the way, the year before last, I bought a house for more than two million, which can be considered as taking root there."

Why do you always mention restaurants? Is it interesting?

City is different from city, industry is different from industry, there is no comparison.

I remember when Cai Gen was admitted to study in a big city, Erlu also wanted to go. He failed in the first year, and failed again in the second year. Finally, he spent money to study in a private university, and then worked hard in the same city as Cai Gen.

It may be due to the continuous setbacks, but Erlu is indeed hardworking and has suffered a lot.

Looking at it now, I have bought a house in that big city and have children, so I can be considered a model of positive publicity.

The out-of-school boy worked hard to create a colorful life in a big city through his own efforts.

There is really nothing good about Cai Gen. The fact is that he left and others took root. I really admire him.

Zhen Shuiyin was listening beside her. She really felt that the old lady's son was very good, so she should follow suit and praise him.

"Aunt Li, a big house with two million yuan is so amazing. How much does it cost to decorate it? How many square meters does it cost?"

Cai Gen glared at Zhen Shuiyin, did you do this on purpose?

Zhen Shuiyin's expression is very innocent and she is chatting normally. What's wrong?

Aunt Li actually didn't want to answer, but she was asked, and it wasn't very nice.

"The decoration is very expensive, costing more than 200,000 yuan. Fortunately, the apartment size is 46 square meters, there are no public stalls, and the area is very practical."

According to the memory in Cai Gen's mind, the total price is two million, more than 40 square meters, about 50,000 per square meter. It should not occupy the school district, and it is outside the Fifth Ring Road.

Besides, the total is only more than 40 square meters, so why share it among the public?

If the public stall is really over, how can people still live in it?

This may be the fundamental reason why Aunt Li is not used to big cities.

At this time, this home is more than 100 square meters, and an old couple lives there.

My son's home is more than 40 square meters, and it is a bit compact for three people and one parent.

Of course, Cai Gen is not stupid enough to reveal these things.

There are eight plays in the family, and the plays are all different. Who doesn’t have something to worry about?

Zhen Shuiyin was also surprised when she heard that it was more than forty square meters, but this silly girl originally wanted to follow the commercial touts. She didn't cooperate well just now and always wanted to make amends.

"Oh, that's a compact apartment. It's very popular nowadays.

As long as it's close to your work, it's fine. There are traffic jams in big cities now, making driving inconvenient."

When the car was mentioned, Aunt Li's eyes lit up again.

"Erlu has a car. He bought it for more than 300,000 yuan, but he can't drive it at home because of the traffic jam. I take the subway every time to go to and from get off work. It's a green trip."

Well, I need to take the subway, and it’s probably not very close to my work. Otherwise, sharing a bicycle would be better, right?

Cai Gen followed the train of thought and analyzed it, but found it uninteresting.

When I lived in a basement before, I saw with my own eyes that in big cities, people with a monthly salary of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan would take the bus and rent a basement. This is normal and not unusual.

Zhen Shuiyin still wanted to talk, but Cai Gen stopped her. For such an old lady, can't you please make others feel happy?

Originally, I didn't feel anything bad, but when I was touched by you, I felt something.

You can't treat the elderly like this.
