"Then tell me what you have that is worthy of my attention." Qin Kexin asked Wang Xudong with a smile.
"How do I know? I just know what I am worthy of you, and that's why I'm so confused."
"Actually, I have fallen in love with you. I just want to lure you here and stay in my house as my son-in-law." Qin Kexin said to Wang Xudong with a smile.
"Stop making trouble, can you be more serious? You are making me feel really unsure."
"Okay, let me tell the truth. As you said, I actually had three purposes in bringing you here. The first purpose is that I really don't dare to drive at night and for such a long time. The second purpose
, I already mentioned the second purpose last night, to deal with my mother, and to make my mother feel at ease. The third purpose is to deal with today's banquet."
"Banquet? This has something to do with me too."
"It does matter, and it does matter a lot, because you are the master of today's banquet." Qin Kexin nodded.
"Me? What do you mean?"
"In a word, bad folk customs kill people. Today is my mother's 60th birthday. My original intention was to take my mother to the East China Sea. Either take her to travel abroad, or take her to the East China Sea to play with her.
Eat delicious food, but my uncle called me and scolded me because, in the local area, that is, in this place, it would be very disrespectful to celebrate such a birthday without having a feast to entertain relatives and friends.
Local people can't even raise their heads about matters of face, which means that children are unfilial. My old uncle means that I must give my mother a big feast, and it must be done well, because my father passed away early, and my uncle
It means that I have to take care of it for my mother. Although my mother has not taken the initiative to tell me, I think she must have the same meaning. After all, if I don’t take care of it, I won’t be able to hold my head up here in the future. It will be very embarrassing.
Face." Qin Kexin said slowly.
"Is there still such a custom?"
"Isn't this the case in all small places? It's just that it's more serious in our place. Of course, there is no problem with this. My mother is over sixty. Logically speaking, as a daughter, I should celebrate her properly, no matter how grand it is.
But, this is what I should do. Moreover, I also have some money, so I have no problem financially. But when I asked later, I realized that this matter was not something I could do if I had money."
"What's the meaning?"
"The local custom is to celebrate birthdays for parents, but daughters cannot do so."
"What kind of custom is this?" Wang Xudong finally couldn't help laughing.
"My son can do it."
"What should I do if I don't have a son?"
"If you don't have a son, then the son-in-law can do it. In short, a daughter can't do it. There are two situations when a daughter can do it. One is a daughter who can't get married, and the other is a divorced daughter. Both of these are unlucky. In short,
It can't be done. If you don't have a daughter, you have to have your son-in-law do it." Qin Kexin explained.
"So, today's banquet is actually hosted by me, right?" Wang Xudong pointed to himself.
"Yeah, now do you know why I had to call you here? I can't help it. I feel tired from talking too much, eh..."
"No... what are the customs in your place? Where did this come from? This can no longer be described as feudal thinking." Wang Xudong found it very incredible.
"If you ask me, who should I ask? But what can I do? You have to follow the local customs when you enter the country. My mother has been born and raised here all her life. I can't let her reach this age, because I am a daughter who cannot hold her head high in the local area.
Come to be laughed at by others? Originally, she was looked down upon by others because she did not have a son, and because my father passed away early, she suffered a lot of injustice as a woman. So, no matter what, I have to help her earn this reputation.
Come back. In addition, I have to tell you that the local situation is like this. If you have money, you will have face, and everyone will respect you. Therefore, you must act like you have a mine at home today. How can you be rich?
Where does the pride come from? If nothing else, I just want to give my mother some credit. I want those relatives and friends in our family who have looked down on my mother and bullied her for so many years, as well as the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, to take a good look at it.
, having a daughter is far better than having a son, my mother has a better life than them." Qin Kexin said.
"No...I can understand all of this. This situation is normal in some third- and fourth-tier cities that are not very open. Even in big cities, don't people measure a person's success by money?
But the problem is that you already have money. I heard that when you used to work, you were given an annual salary of hundreds of millions. Even now, your annual salary is tens of millions. You don’t have to pretend, you already have it.
Money. Why do you have to let me pretend to be a rich man? Look, I look like a rich man all over my body?" Wang Xudong said.
"Who did you hear these things from?" Qin Kexin asked Wang Xudong.
"I……"
"I don't even know how much money I can make in a year. How do you know? You know better than me how much money I make in a year?" Qin Kexin stared at Wang Xudong.
"I...I listened...I heard what they said when they were gossiping in the company."
"There is only one person in the whole company who knows my salary situation, and that person is Su Wanqi." Qin Kexin said lightly.
"Ah...yes...really?"
"Also, I have to correct you. I didn't go to the company that offered me an annual salary of hundreds of millions. That company was obviously a hype, and I didn't like that company's business philosophy and corporate culture. I was
I went to another company in Beijing and the salary was not that high, but I was doing a very comfortable job with an annual salary of 50 million. Of course, now is not the time to talk about this. Where did you know these things about me? I won’t ask you now.
, what is the relationship between you and Su Wanqi? I won’t ask you now, I’ll talk about it after today’s business is finished.” Qin Kexin said lightly, which made Wang Xudong sweat like rain and his back was numb.
"I'm rich, and I'm not afraid to tell you. I have an apartment in Beijing, and I also have an apartment in Donghai. As you can see, it's the apartment I live in. In addition, I have a deposit of close to 10 million."
Qin Kexin said.
"Don't expose your wealth. Why are you telling me in such detail?"
"However, in the eyes of my mother and my relatives, I am just a working person. My salary may be relatively high, but I am definitely not rich. I have never shown that I am rich in front of them. That is not my habit.
I have no idea about money, and I don’t like to show off, so they always think that’s it. Moreover, people in this place, if you are a girl who goes out to work and suddenly becomes rich when you come back, they will say that you must be in
If you don't learn how to be a sugar daddy outside, you will say all kinds of ugly things. I have two friends like this. Of course, one of them is indeed doing that." Qin Kexin said helplessly. (To be continued.
