Fang Zheng said: "Since it is your hobby, why do you have to give it up?"
Yu Nian said: "It's not that I want to give up, but... sometimes, you have to choose between dreams and reality."
Fang Zheng was even more puzzled: "You have already made a lot of money, isn't it enough?"
Yu Nian sucked all the cigarettes out of his mouth in one breath, took out another cigarette, took another breath, and inhaled half of the cigarette. Then he exhaled a long puff of thick smoke, as if exhaling a lot of stuffy air, and whispered: "
As I said, online writers are not recognized by mainstream society. Therefore, when I met my girlfriend, I had no hope at all. We had kissed each other too many times, so what hope could there be.
Fortunately, at that time, I paid a down payment to buy a house in the county, and bought a car worth more than 100,000 yuan in full. I also had some money in my pocket, and I was not as embarrassed as I was at the beginning.
My girlfriend also reads novels, so she was very interested when she heard that I wrote novels. Later, the more we talked, the more we became interested, and we got together.
Originally I thought my spring had come, but unexpectedly, when it came time to talk about marriage, trouble also came.
You can't imagine the scene when I met their parents for the first time, I didn't even enter their house."
Fang Zheng was speechless: "Why?"
Yu Nian smiled bitterly and said: "I was at the door of their house and heard her father say: 'What bullshit writers? They are all rats in the sewers. Can any of them be sold abroad? Can any of them be famous for generations? Can he make money today? Who knows?
Will you starve to death tomorrow? Let me tell you, it is better for you to find someone like him than to find a civil servant with an iron rice bowl and good benefits in all aspects. I introduced one to you, you go and have a look tomorrow.'"
Fang Zheng was stunned...
Yu Nian said: "Hey, do you understand now? After passing the level of young people, the level of parents is even more difficult. They don't recognize my career at all.
The second time I came to the house, his father blocked me at the door and said angrily: 'If you want to marry his daughter, you must first buy a house and write her daughter's name on it.'
I said, I already own a house. After two people get married, it can be regarded as marital property, equal to half of each person's property.
But his father disagreed and said: 'If we don't have a house, let's not talk about it.'
My girlfriend is really nice to me...
Moreover, we Internet writers are quite homely and naive, and we don’t think too much. I just want to live quietly, get married and have children with my girlfriend.
Then, I sold the house, borrowed some money and bought a new one.
Then he gave their family 200,000 yuan as a bride price.
I fulfilled her father's request, and her father relented and let his daughter marry me."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng was also sighing. He didn't expect that getting married would be so troublesome. Fang Zheng touched his chin and thought to himself: If he had gone down the mountain directly before, I guess the poor monk would never get married in this life. Hey... the poor monk is so poor.
Single to the end.
Yu Nian continued: "I never imagined that my nightmare would come just after I had my sweet dream.
I borrowed everything to throw a banquet, and all my relatives and friends came..."
Speaking of this, Yu Nian fell into memories. When he spoke, the expression on his face was extremely complicated and painful.
Fang Zheng had an idea and opened a dream called Huangliang, entering into the dream of more than ten years.
With a burst of lively noise, Yu Nian was called out of bed by his parents. He quickly put on his newly bought clothes, fixed his hair, greeted his seven aunts and eight aunts, and then followed the motorcade...
"Xiao Nian, it's okay. I'm finally married. When it's all over, let's go to my uncle's place to play!"
"Xiao Nian, you need to drink two more drinks today, haha..."
"It's a good thing that there is a new addition to Lao Yu's family. Xiaonian, remember, if you want two more children, more children will bring you more blessings."
"Brother Xiao Yu, I want a big red envelope later."
"Brother Xiao Yu, do you want to eat Tangtang?"
"Hehe, it's okay, I'm walking ahead of the brothers. Let's go quickly, brothers also go to meet the bride."
"Yes! Everyone is going, and you must bring the bride back today!"
"GOGOGO..."
…
Listening to the words of his relatives and friends, Yu Nian felt happy in his heart. He responded one by one, fearing that he would neglect someone. However, after all, he was not good at dealing with such occasions. His eyes were in a state of confusion and he did not know who to talk to or what to do...
Throughout the whole process, I was dragged along by people from the wedding company, seven aunts and eight aunts, carrying red flowers, holding wallets, and listening to the rules and so on...
The community was also bustling with the wedding. Many people who did morning exercises stopped doing morning exercises and gathered around to join in the celebration.
Yu Nian greeted everyone one after another, and followed the convoy away amidst congratulations...
After leaving the community, Yu Nian could still hear the shouts coming from behind.
"Brother Xiao Yu, remember to bring your sister-in-law back!"
"Get it back!"
"Ha ha……"
…
The convoy drove for three hours and finally arrived at the woman's home.
However, compared with the bustle of Yu Nian's house, the woman's house seemed particularly deserted. There were not many people there. When the convoy came, no one came out to pick it up.
Seeing this scene, many people complained a little, but no one would say it loudly on the big day.
Yu Nian also had a bad premonition, but he still took a deep breath and muttered: "I have collected the money and bought the house, so it should be fine."
After saying that, Yu Nian went upstairs with a group of family and friends. When they reached the third floor, Yu Nian started knocking on the door.
As a result, there was no movement at all in the house.
"Yu Nian, did you find the wrong door?" Yu Nian's cousin asked.
Yu Nian shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Look, there are decorations from a wedding company on the door."
"It's right here, that's right. Yesterday we went in to decorate it, and the makeup artist was still inside. Wait a minute, and I'll ask the makeup artist what's going on." The people from the wedding company started to call, but there was a call over there.
No one answered.
"Isn't the knock on the door loud enough? Why don't you try putting some red envelopes in?" someone suggested.
"Pull it down. This door is so closed. How can you stuff a red envelope? If you can really stuff it in, who would want such a thin red envelope?" said Yu Nian's friend Qiu.
Yu Nian took out his mobile phone and called his girlfriend, but it turned out that the other party had turned off his phone.
Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, the door next door opened.
An old man came out. When he saw so many people, the old man was startled. Looking at everyone's clothes, he said in amazement: "Are you here to pick up a bride?"
Yu Nian said: "Yes, I got married to Xiaoye and I came to pick her up today."
The old man groaned and said, "That's it...then what are you doing standing here? Come in quickly?"
"Uncle, our door is almost broken, and there is no movement inside." Yu Nian's friend complained.
