Xue Ling asked curiously: "Prove your ability to work?"
"Yes." Xiao Tong explained: "The gap between husband and wife cannot be too big, otherwise problems will arise sooner or later. The career gap between me and him is huge. If I don't catch up, he will look down on me even more."
Xue Ling's intuition was a bit incredible and asked: "Who said these words? It can't be Duoduo, right?"
"No." Xiao Tong replied: "That's what I think... There are a lot of new media, and I'm not the only one."
Xue Ling felt a headache when he heard it, and frowned: "Don't read those messy public accounts all day long. They are people who make money by traffic, and they rely on some gimmicks or eye-catching words to fool readers like you to make money. Your own
You have to live your own life, and other people's ideas can only be used as a reference, and may not necessarily be suitable for your marriage."
Xiao Tong's eyes dodge and hesitate: "Auntie, there really shouldn't be too much distance between me and him... Besides, I've already graduated. If I don't make a career while I'm young, the older I get, the less likely it will be."
I can fight it.”
"Don't create anxiety for yourself." Xue Ling sighed distressedly: "Xiao Tong, what's wrong with you recently? You look haggard, your words are disorganized, and your words are full of anxiety and anxiety."
Xiao Tong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "...No."
Xue Ling didn't argue with her and smiled slightly.
"Don't be anxious, and don't rush to deny it. Let Auntie tell you a few stories, okay?"
Xiao Tong nodded slightly and glanced at the mobile phone on the table.
Xue Ling continued in a gentle voice: "If you are pressed for time, then I can stop telling the story and just talk about the people or things around us, okay?"
Xiao Tong smiled apologetically: "It's okay... It's just lunch time now, so I don't have to rush back to work. Auntie, just tell me."
Xue Ling thought for a while and said: "I don't know where you young people got your ideas. It may be from various messy information channels, or it may be some people's personal ideas. I should remind you - some
Human opinions cannot represent everything. What can the distance between husband and wife be? Educational background? Family? Career? Social status?"
Xiao Tong whispered: "...Include them all."
Xue Ling smiled and said: "People in the past paid attention to being well-matched, because they were afraid that the couple would not get along with each other in the future, and the gap would be too big to bridge. In my opinion, you and Duoduo are a well-matched couple. You had the same academic qualifications at first, but later
You are in graduate school, but he is better than you in terms of work experience, and they are of different ages. He cannot compare with you in terms of family. His family is complicated, and he grew up in a single-parent family. Your family is happy, warm, and simple. He
His family is in the imperial capital, but your family is in a small town in the south, so you can’t compare with him in terms of geographical location. Therefore, every family has its own origin."
Xiao Tong couldn't help but whisper: "His career... is much more successful than mine."
"It's not bad." Xue Ling replied: "He worked at the airport in the beginning. The work was not hard, and the salary was just that of an ordinary salaryman, so he was not considered a wealthy person. You will officially work after your internship in the company, if Duoduo doesn't take you with you
, you are just an ordinary employee of the company at most, and your monthly salary is about more than 10,000. Even if you are now in graduate school, your salary is about 10,000 to 20,000."
Xiao Tong didn't agree very much and whispered: "But you have to take care of him."
Xue Ling nodded: "Yes, but you are also led by him. In this regard, you are the same. It's just that my starting point is high, so Duoduo follows suit. If you are by his side, you will also rise with the tide. This is why Duoduo
The reason why I have always insisted that you go to the group to continue working."
Xiao Tong was stunned.
Xue Ling continued to explain: "You have been in the group for a few years and understand the semi-wolf corporate culture there. With your qualifications, if I don't take you with me at the beginning, you can only be the lowest intern, not
Suddenly he stood behind the president. Ability is important, but a platform is a platform, not an ability. If I had promoted someone else, not Duoduo, then he would be just an ordinary salaryman now. In the final analysis, you are almost the same as him
, there is no huge gap as you call it.”
Xiao Tong was speechless for a moment and seemed unable to recover.
Xue Ling continued: "I didn't make it alone. I stood on my father's shoulders and relied on the foundation laid by my parents to survive step by step. When I was born, I was busy every day.
I was selling clothes everywhere, earning only a few cents. When I came to the imperial capital with my big belly and my family, my mother helped arrange a place to stay. I was probably your age at the time.
,almost."
She paused briefly and took a sip of coffee to moisten her throat.
"Today's new media likes to give examples of people with annual salaries of millions, monthly salary bonuses of hundreds of thousands, etc. You often look at it on your mobile phone without thinking carefully about the truth and falsehood. In fact, there are very few such people.
There are only a few, and they belong to the high-income group at the top of the pyramid. Don’t always think that money is so easy to make, and don’t always think that you are not good enough and that you are still far away from others. The steps are taken step by step, not by hard work and hard work.
If you push yourself, you can reach the sky in one step."
Xiao Tong lowered his eyes and seemed to have listened.
"Maybe it's because of the few years I spent in the group... the people I came into contact with were all high-income people, and there were such people on my mobile phone, so I unconsciously took it seriously."
Xue Ling smiled slightly and asked: "The Imperial City is one of the largest cities in the country, and its prosperity is also one of the few. But have you ever calculated how many large groups like ours are there in the Imperial City? The group is only the top executive.
The leader has such a salary, how can anyone else have it?"
Xiao Tong hesitated: "It must be... not much."
Xue Ling nodded: "Actually, it's really not much. If I let Yangyang or Xiaoxin take over, Duoduo will at most become a senior leader with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands. That wedding house in your name will last for how many years.
Can you buy it without drinking? Duoduo also bought a villa, how many years will it take? Have you calculated it?"
Xiao Tong whispered awkwardly: "I don't know how many lifetimes it will take..."
Xue Ling chuckled: "So, Duoduo is just standing on my shoulders, just like I was standing on the foundation of my parents. It's just a fluke that the starting point is relatively high, so he is a step ahead of you. If you rely on him
I estimate that I can only get the position of CEO if I have gray hair. You, a rookie who just graduated, compete with a big CEO who is two generations old - what do you think? You compare with him,
Can I not be anxious? Can I not feel uncomfortable?"
Xiao Tong blushed in shame and explained hesitantly: "I'm not as lucky as him... and I don't want to reach his height. At least I have to have my own independent career and don't have to rely on him."
