Chapter 64 Qianjin

 Ning Weimin did not invite us as a guest.

Of course we can't just let this matter go, as we'll inevitably have to apply again in the future.

But it sounds amazing.

For Lan Lan, Ning Weimin was never able to use money to achieve the kind of psychological balance he expected.

Because although Lan Lan is a child at heart, she loves to play and laugh.

She likes watching movies and theater plays, skating, going to the park, and eating ice cream, ice cream, melon seeds, plum chocolate and other snacks.

Moreover, she also remembered that she would do whatever she said as soon as it came out, without any plan at all.

Being with her always makes Ning Weimin feel passive, youthful and helpless.

But at the same time, there is another inherent persistence in Lan Lan, which makes Ning Weimin even more surprised and cannot but admire him.

That means Lan Lan has no intention of spending a man's money with peace of mind.

This girl not only pays attention to the comings and goings, but is also extremely generous and uncommonly cheerful.

The two of them ate, drank, and had fun, and she also spent a lot of money.

Especially when she pays her salary, you can't take her money away from her.

Even at the end of June, Ning Weimin joked and pretended that he was in trouble and needed money urgently.

Even though her salary was almost spent, Lan Lan said it didn't matter and insisted on going home to get it because her mother had money.

How should one evaluate such a girl appropriately?

It’s so good!

But this girl has no scheming at all and is completely unguarded against people. She is so fooled.

Ning Weimin felt that if he were her brother, he would be worried about this girl to death and would have to worry about her being unkind to others all his life.

Of course, Ning Weimin had to doubt Lan Lan's family environment.

Because ordinary people's families will not grow up with such a girl who doesn't know the hardships of the world and doesn't care about spending money.

As expected, when Lan Lan was asked, she said that she had no intention of hiding it.

She told Ning Weimin that her parents were actually high-level intellectuals.

My father is a professor of ancient architecture, and my mother works in the district Cultural Protection Bureau.

Therefore, her father also serves as an ancient architecture consultant for the Bureau of Cultural Heritage and has been responsible for many restoration projects of the Temple of Heaven, Qianmen and other places.

And she actually has a brother who works at the district service bureau.

As for this girl's family background, why she works in a scrap yard is all due to anger with her family.

Lan Lan claimed that she was not a student, but her parents forced her to go to college.

She was not allowed to watch TV or go out to play. She had to go home and study every day after school, which drove her almost crazy.

So when she graduated, she missed the college entrance examination by three points, and she was unwilling to take the exam again, and had to go to work.

She wants to be free and decide her own life.

Needless to say, her choice made her parents angry to death.

Her stubbornness cannot be stopped even by nine oxen.

Her parents said she was uneducated and could only pick up rags. She said she picked up rags.

Just like that, I couldn't convince her no matter what.

Her parents were so angry that they actually sent her to work at the scrap yard.

Unfortunately, she feels a little regretful now.

Originally, she thought working was more interesting than going to school, so no one cared about her, so she just did whatever she wanted.

But I soon discovered that this class was actually even more boring.

Dealing with scrap metal, old newspapers and magazines every day is so dirty, what's the point?

It would be unseemly to speak out.

Thanks to her parents who entrusted someone to take care of her, the director of the scrapyard treated her like his own daughter and never let her do hard work.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to stay at the scrapyard for even a week.

As for the colleagues in the work unit, except for a group of quite old people, they are all educated youths who have returned to the city.

She is the only fresh high school student like her.

The age gap in life is too large, and the life experiences are also very different.

Others talk about how to live at home every day, while what they study is firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

The discussions were about how to save money, how to take care of the old and young at home, how to make furniture and paint the house, and how to knit sweaters with labor protection gloves.

Everyone treats her as a child, and there is no one she can talk to as an equal as a friend.

But what she didn't expect was that even her original social circle was derailed.

She also became an individual separate from other people.

For no other reason than because she is a "Yucai" student and is studying at the district's key points.

Those classmates in the class were not as laid-back as she was, nor were they as chic and open-minded as she was.

Except for those who are admitted to college, everyone else is continuing to prepare for the exam.

She went to the movies and the park with her former good friends, but no one paid attention to her. They were all evasive.

The parents of those classmates were also guarding her like a thief, fearing that she would affect their children's studies...

When it came to this, Lan Lan was already extremely aggrieved.

Not only was her mouth pouted, but her voice was also choked with sobs.

But Ning Weimin couldn't help but burst out laughing without any sympathy.

"I understand, you are asking for trouble. You didn't listen to the old man's words, and now you feel in a dilemma, and you are embarrassed to admit your mistakes, right? If you want to listen to my advice, just talk to your parents.

, it’s better to change your ways as soon as possible..."

These words immediately made Lan Lan open his eyes in surprise, and then showed a look of disappointment.

"You...you also advised me to listen to them? I thought you would support me."

"Look at how freely you live, how happy you are, how self-centered you are..."

"I really don't understand. Is my only way out to go to college?"

"Even if I pass the exam, what's the point? Living like my parents did from now on will be too tiring. It's too boring and boring."

Unexpectedly, Ning Weimin shook his head, totally disapproving of her pain.

"I don't agree with what you say. In this life, almost everything is like this. There is no pure good or pure bad. It can only be weighed and made to make the best choice in one's opinion."

"Making a choice is actually not that easy. It requires knowledge and vision to make the right choice. It even requires financial foundation and family support to truly implement your choice."

"Take you for example. You made the wrong choice because you didn't know enough about society. But even if this choice can be implemented, it will only rely on the help of your family. You should know how many people are unemployed now. Others can't get what they ask for.

You can get the things easily. This is the help your family gives you."

"To be honest, your starting point in life is high enough. If you make mistakes, your family will support you. Only when you were born in this family will you have the opportunity to make new choices. This is a blessing that others cannot hope to achieve.

.You should cherish it."

"Don't compare yourself to me. I am a child without a father and a mother. It has never been easy. I have never had as many choices as you. You don't know how many things I have done against my will in order to survive. How many things I have done."

Tough stuff.”

"You only saw me smiling, but you couldn't tell that my smile might be fake, and how much pain is hidden in my smile. You envy my freedom and self, and I also envy you for having parents who care about you..."

Ning Weimin's words instantly silenced Lan Lan, and she had to admit it.

"Actually, I know that I am lucky enough compared to many people. Being so dissatisfied seems to be a bit pretentious..."

But children are children after all. Soon, dissatisfaction and unwillingness resurfaced.

"But it's human nature to pursue happiness, isn't it? Is it wrong for me to want a better life? I'm not that unrealistic. I just hope that my life can be more poetic, romantic and personal.

The right to make the decision..."

Ning Weimin still laughed at this.

"That's no problem. It's normal for you to think so. But you can't be too impatient. Life is not something that can be achieved overnight. It needs to be done step by step, and you can't overthrow what you have achieved."

"Life is a big question. Countless scholars, wise men, and philosophers in the world can't figure it out. Why do you think you can figure it out now? Even better than your parents?"

"Why do you think your parents restrict you? Is it just to let you live according to their wishes? Then they are too tired. Are they willing to control you like this for the rest of your life?"

"Actually, in my opinion, it's just a necessary measure they take to protect your future. Because when you go to college, you can see the wider world. Only then can you know what you really want."

"Your parents just don't want your dreams to be limited. They want you to have more choices and the ability to guarantee your future."

These words touched Lan Lan completely. She had never thought about it at all.

"But...but..."

Ning Weimin interrupted her again, and his next words continued to break through her understanding.

"There is nothing wrong. There are always some responsibilities that people have to pay in life. Just like your parents are responsible for your future, you also have the obligation to let your parents trust you."

"Let me tell you, freedom is indeed a good thing, but such a good family is even more precious. If you don't know how many people are hungry, you will be hungry. I don't know how many people envy your family and your parents."

"Little girl, I know that you have obviously regretted it, but you just can't save your face, right? You still care about this with your parents? I dare say that as long as you look back, your parents will definitely ignore the past grudges and be ecstatic. And when you grow up,

When you get older, you will find that only blood relatives are the ones who truly consider you wholeheartedly."

"Also, I really have to advise you, don't think that you are the center of the world, don't think that you will be young forever, don't think that only good luck will accompany you in the future. Don't think that your parents and relatives will always worry about you, they will also

They will grow old and one day they will need your care."

"Even worse misfortunes are possible, including the death of a loved one, being disabled in a car accident, suffering from a terminal illness, living under the influence of others, wandering in a foreign land, and meeting unkind people... It sounds scary, right? But it's all true. This is life.

"

"I don't deny that studying for college entrance exams is quite boring. But compared with the situations I mentioned, does it mean nothing?"

"Listen to me, have fun for two more months, and then go back to school when school starts. Don't forget to use your salary to buy something for your parents. Not only will they not be angry with you anymore, they will also be happy.

.”

"Believe me, you may feel most at ease now in your life. Cherish everything you have now, and don't let your time go to waste and miss the opportunity to truly control your own destiny."

Lan Lan had a sad expression and was speechless for a while.

She didn't even have time to digest Ning Weimin's words and couldn't refute them at all.

In the end, I could only sigh deeply at the heaviness and boredom of the adult world.

"I really can't believe that these words were said by you. You...what you said to me is simply...even worse than my parents and my mother..."

"More old-fashioned than your parents, and more like your elders?"

Ning Weimin smiled softly and returned to his arrogant and careless behavior.

"Then you can call me uncle from now on. What do you think? My little niece, just call me and my uncle will buy you yogurt."

There is no doubt that the result of such a provocation was that Lan Lan refused to be tempted and responded with "bah" on the spot.
