Because the hotel where Ye Huang stayed was near the fountain in Guiyang City, the car drove a short distance to the commercial street near the fountain. [ y ]
Like most cities, although the GDP of Guizhou Province is relatively backward, Guiyang, the provincial capital, is still extremely prosperous. Although it cannot be compared with Chongqing, a major southwestern town that has become a first-tier city in China, it is still much better than many second-tier cities.
few.
Ye Huang and others got off the car at the intersection of the commercial street, and Xing Tian drove the car to find a parking space.
"Mom and Dad, I brought you here today to show you the general appearance of the city. After all, you will live in the city in the future, and you still need to be familiar with some things. By the way, Yumo, you can buy some for your parents later.
I want to buy some clothes and buy some things for my brother."
"No need, these clothes are fine and don't cost so much." As soon as Ye Huang said this, Luo's father said.
Luo's father has always been a very frugal person. In recent years, he has become even more frugal because of debts. Usually, he would like to split a penny into two parts. Most of his clothes are collected from relatives, and they are often the first three.
Three years after the new year, three more years of sewing and mending.
Now that his daughter has found a powerful boyfriend, life will no longer be what it used to be, but he still doesn't want to spend too much money.
"Son, your dad and I understand your caution, but you really don't need to spend any more money, and it's not easy for you to make money." After Luo's father finished speaking, Luo's mother also said to Ye Huang.
"Mom and Dad, you don't have to worry about this. What do we make money for? Isn't it just what we have to spend? If we don't spend that money, it won't grow mold. Today, we won't buy too much, just buy two sets of clothes for each person.
That's good, after finally coming out, you should buy something, right?" Upon hearing that his father-in-law didn't want to buy it, Emperor Ye felt a little embarrassed.
Although this is not the first father-in-law that Ye Huang has met, the first two are people who have no worries about food and clothing, and the things they are talking about are not at the level of life necessities, but Yumo's parents are different.
I am a farmer born and raised in Guizhou. I usually live frugally and don’t even have enough money to spend, so I don’t dare to buy more things.
Now that Emperor Ye suddenly asked them to change this concept, it was really difficult.
"Mom and Dad, we will all live in the city from now on. People will gossip if we wear these clothes." Luo Yumo also echoed.
Although my parents were going to a big city this time, they had already rummaged through their wardrobes and put on the two navy blue clothes they had worn when they got married, but after all, they were already clothes from decades ago.
Standing on the bustling street and looking at each other from a distance, the two elders looked like two antiques. Even if others didn't say it, Luo Yumo felt a little awkward. The most important thing was that Luo Yumo was afraid that his parents' clothes would disappoint Ye Huang.
Somewhat difficult.
After all, the Ye family is one of the four major families in Yanjing. If my parents still wear such clothes, some people will criticize the Ye family.
"Mom and Dad, just listen to your sister and brother-in-law! The city is different from our country. If you go out dressed like this, your sister and brother-in-law will be embarrassed."
Luo Yufeng spoke the most directly. Seeing that his parents were still hesitating, he said it without any hesitation.
"Really?" Sure enough, Father Luo became nervous when his son said this. He was from the country and didn't understand these things, but if his clothes really embarrassed his uncle, he would really feel bad about it.
"Haha, it's not that it's embarrassing. The main thing is that the clothes you are wearing are from the Cultural Revolution period. We are now in the 21st century. Wearing them outside may attract others to gossip. The main thing is that the climate now is very different from before.
, Mom and Dad, if you wear such thin clothes this winter, it’s not good for your health.”
"Dad, Mom has arthritis, and the humidity is heavy now. Wearing it like this will do a lot of harm."
"Then... then buy it!" Upon hearing that it was not good for his wife's health, Luo's father immediately looked a little panicked and gritted his teeth and said.
"This is the right thing to do."
Upon hearing the old man relenting, Ye Huang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
Next to him, Luo Yumo couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Ye Huang had even lied about climate change in order to make his parents reluctant to buy clothes. However, Luo Yumo couldn't help but feel very sweet when he thought that Ye Huang worked so hard to make the two old people happy.
.
Before walking up the mountain, Luo Yumo straightened Ye Huang's clothes and said thank you softly.
"Thank you, your parents are my parents. It is natural for children to make their parents happy. Besides, isn't it that we make money to support the elderly and take care of the children? No matter how much money we spend on them, I don't feel bad."
Ye Huang smiled and said.
Hearing what Ye Huang said, Luo Yumo felt warm again and nodded with a smile.
In fact, Luo Yumo knew why Ye Huang was always so kind to the elderly and children. Although Ye Huang came from a prominent family like the Ye family, the Ye Huang in front of him a few months ago was living a better life than most people in the world.
Be difficult.
Especially before he was twelve years old, Ye Huang had been wandering on the streets. During that period of time, the people who were really willing to give him a piece of bread were not the adults walking around on the mainland, but more of the young people.
Old children and elderly people who are already in their mid-50s.
It is precisely for this reason that Ye Huang is always full of goodwill towards these people. In his heart, his ability to survive until now has a lot to do with the charity of those people.
The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring of water, not to mention that these people saved their own lives.
A group of five people waited for Xing Tian to park the car and then headed towards the surrounding shopping malls.
Like most people who have just entered the city, Luo's father, Luo's mother and Luo Yufeng looked around, looking at things they had never seen before, and were full of curiosity about everything.
Whenever I was squeezed by someone while walking, I quickly apologized. I even felt a little nervous when I saw the huge screen on the street suddenly changing the picture.
In Ye Huang's eyes, this look was not only partly funny, but also deeply sad.
In a country that claims to be the second largest economy in the world, there are still villages like Shiping Village that are so poor that they cannot afford to watch TV or use electric lights. This has to be said to be a strong disincentive to the prosperity in front of us.
Satire.
Father Luo and Mother Luo were able to get rid of their previous lives because they had a good daughter, but more ordinary people in Guizhou still live a life that is not much different from that of the 1970s and 1980s.
The country’s GDP ranks second in the world. Has the country donated money to Africa again?
None of this has anything to do with them. Even one day when they learn that the country gives them tens of millions of poverty alleviation funds every year and millions of people share it, they will complain and say, we people in China don’t have Africa yet.
Those who have nothing to do with it can gain more sympathy from those above.
In the past, Emperor Ye did not have a deep understanding of these phenomena, but after seeing Luo's father and Luo's mother shopping in front of him, he deeply understood that there is a kind of sadness in this country that has inherited five thousand years of civilization that has never faded.
No matter how much the central leadership emphasizes attaching importance to people's livelihood, there are always some people at the lower level who have been forgotten for one reason or another.~
