Ding Wei's eyes turned red again when she looked at the red security door that was firmly closed.
She endured it for a while and finally no longer wanted to shed tears, but at the same time, she was also filled with deep confusion and heartache.
…
This is the second time this year that she has come out slamming the door.
The first time was on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Her mother Bai Xiujuan urged her to go on a blind date. Her words were full of promises and affirmations, saying that he was really a good boy and that she had seen it with her own eyes, etc...
Ding Wei was really exhausted both mentally and physically - she worked as an accountant and worked for a large group, with a good salary and considerable bonuses, but correspondingly, the group did not provide for idle people, and she was exhausted. She worked from the end of the year until the accounts were closed on New Year's Eve, running all the way.
I got home at noon on the second day of the Lunar New Year, visited New Year's greetings and visited other places, and finally breathed a sigh of relief on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
On the fifth day of the lunar month, she was forced to get up early in the morning and had a blind date, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
But she couldn't go home a few times a year, and she had to pack up and go back to work tomorrow, so forget about her parents' nagging and patience - she knew that she had no partner and was not married, and her parents had always felt embarrassed in the community.
She also felt very uncomfortable.
But what should I do? Her mother is now so anxious that "just being a man" is enough, but she is not willing to accept it.
Women...must get married?
…
But during the Chinese New Year, her mother Bai Xiujuan and her father Ding Haiyang persuaded her, and Ding Wei finally dressed up and went out on a blind date.
Of course, it didn't work.
——It’s strange to be able to become a talented person.
Ever since she turned 28, the men introduced by relatives and friends at home have been unable to speak.
For example, this person graduated from high school and worked as a chef in a hotel. His monthly salary is 6,800 before tax. He has two houses at home. He is 168cm tall and his appearance... to say he is ordinary is considered a compliment.
The other party seems to be quite satisfied with himself.
After all, the tone of his voice was like this:
"You are the Ding Wei that Aunt Chen mentioned, right? In fact, you are quite good-looking. Why don't you have a boyfriend yet?"
Ding Wei thought to herself: Nonsense, if you have a boyfriend, will it be your turn?
She is not bad looking, has a slim figure, and has outstanding vision and temperament when working in the imperial capital. It is not an exaggeration to call her a "goddess".
She smiled politely.
After all, Yan Dang is really not interested in men with this kind of appearance.
However, the other party didn't notice her perfunctory behavior at all, and was currently trying to find a topic:
"I heard from my aunt that you work for Guanshan Group as an accountant, right? Do big groups like this often have to make false accounts? Your benefits should be very good."
Although Ding Wei has a good psychological quality, she couldn't help but look stiff at this moment.
She endured it again and again, always feeling that her self-cultivation was improved step by step during the blind date.
The other party was still expressing his views on the topic of "Guanshan Group's real estate speculation" and talked endlessly. After finishing it, he asked unintentionally: "Is your salary high? I think, girls, it is too tiring to leave your hometown and work outside."
Yes, and if you work in finance, do you still have to accompany your boss to collect accounts? At the wine table, if you are not careful, you can easily be taken advantage of - "
Ding Wei raised her eyebrows: There is a bill for the wine table? Which year is this script?
She was ready to end this meaningless blind date except to disgust herself, so she smiled commercially:
"The salary is average, about three to four hundred thousand per year."
The words of the man opposite him were stuck in his mouth.
Jiangzhou is a small city, and even in 2020, when people here discuss salary, they rarely use "annual salary" to calculate it. Just like this man on a blind date, his monthly salary is 6,880, and he has a house at home, which is already considered good.
An annual salary of three to four hundred thousand is not much even in the imperial capital, but for the locals in Jiangzhou, it is really a bit far away.
He was stiff for a moment, and then smiled pretending not to care: "Hey, girl, what's the point of having a higher salary? Family is the focus. And too much money can easily develop vanity. Besides, it's easy to develop vanity.
"House prices in the imperial capital are too high. It's better to stay in my hometown and have a house without worrying about anything..."
Ding Wei has already called the waiter neatly: "Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll go first."
…
The blind date failed, and Bai Xiujuan was furious again when she returned home. Although her father, Ding Haiyang, did not speak, he did not even look at Ding Wei——
This was his usual reaction. To be honest, Ding Wei only realized that this was a kind of cold violence after entering society.
Bai Xiujuan was still chattering: "You are thirty-two, you are thirty-two, and you are not married yet. I don't have the face to see anyone when I go out..."
"I'm telling you, if you pick on this and that all the time, you just have a higher heart! Now when you go out, people are always picking on you -"
Just as he was talking, Aunt Chen next door sent a voice message:
[Xiujuan, tell Weiwei, why don’t you change your job? My nephew is kind-hearted and kind-hearted, so he didn’t say anything... But look, Weiwei is always out there, so what’s the use of a higher salary?
?Women, guarding your own little home is more important than anything else.】
[Also, Weiwei works as an accountant. My nephew said that in this kind of work, you often have to go out drinking and socializing with the boss to pay bills. It’s not nice to talk about it... I know Weiwei. I definitely don’t believe it, but others do.
Then——】
Two speeches lasted for sixty seconds.
Bai Xiujuan's face was already flushed.
After a while, she fell down on the sofa crying——
"My good daughter, tell me, why are you like this! Do we need your salary? We want you to go out and drink with us... You are going to piss me off to death!"
Ding Wei was also mad - Aunt Chen and the others could just say such things, as if they were hurting her salary, but her own mother still said such things -
"mom!"
She finally couldn't help but lose her temper: "What are you talking about? It's just nonsense!"
Bai Xiujuan cried even harder: "Weiwei, our family doesn't need your salary. Come back honestly and find a serious job..."
Ding Wei's face was also very ugly.
After all, a mother doesn’t trust her own daughter, so what else is there to say.
She took a deep breath and said, "I still have to go to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. It's the peak time for the return trip during Spring Festival travel. I'll leave now."
After finishing packing the box, he immediately opened the door and left.
…
This is not the first time conflicts have arisen between them, but the difference is that money makes people courageous, and Ding Wei is rarely brave enough to drive away.
Next, of course, there were phone calls every three to five days, and the central idea was either "resigning" or "going on a blind date." Until April, the phone calls suddenly stopped, and the parents stopped mentioning the matter. Occasionally, they chatted via video chat, and the two sides were affectionate and affectionate, which was so good.
Ding Wei felt it was unreal.
Next, the group continued to expand to third- and fourth-tier cities. She was too busy every day to think about so much.
Before New Year's Day, the word "salary increase" finally came out of the HR's mouth, plus the vacation she had saved, she simply went home.
After all, I can stay home for a few more days at this time, help my parents buy New Year goods in advance, and avoid rushing to and from the New Year and being stuck in traffic jams.
When she got home and opened the door, she discovered where the warmth of the past six months came from -
