Chapter 78 Treat Yourself Well
It was already early morning when I got home after eating the skewers.
Teacher Xie has a strict biological clock and goes to bed early.
So when the father and daughter came in to change their shoes, except for a wall lamp left on at the entrance, the rest of the rooms were all pitch black.
Liang Weining couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Lao Liang kindly reminded: "Before you digest it, hurry up and get on the scale and take a photo. When you go to the toilet tomorrow morning, there will be nothing left."
Yeah.
Giving his father an approving look, Liang Weining walked into the living room with ease, dragged out the electronic scale from under the TV cabinet, and stood on it.
No more, no less, exactly one hundred.
I took a photo as evidence, then skillfully stuffed a piece of prepared tin foil into the charging port. After doing everything, I stood on it again and tried again, but there was no response.
OK, done.
The next morning, I don’t know what time it was, but Teacher Xie woke me up to have breakfast.
Liang Weining was so sleepy that she took a nap after dinner. When she woke up, her uncle and his family, who had rushed back from other places, were already sitting neatly in her living room.
My cousin spent the New Year at her husband's home, and my uncle returned to Chengdu with only my aunt and cousin.
Liang Weining maintained the image of a good girl in the eyes of her elders, calling people and greeting them one by one.
While peeling melon seeds, my aunt asked, "Ningning is 22 this year, right? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Familiar package prefixes.
"No rush." Liang Weining smiled tactically and changed the subject: "It's getting late, uncle, you guys can chat first, I'll go in and help mom prepare the vegetables."
After saying that, he slipped away.
In the kitchen, Teacher Xie was busy. When she saw her daughter come in with a numb expression, she guessed what was going on.
"My aunt wants to introduce you to a guy. He's from Chengdu, works in the capital, is in the financial industry, has an annual salary of two million, owns a car, and plans to buy a house within three years."
"How old?" she asked.
Teacher Xie said, "Just turned twenty-eight."
Ok.
He is also young and promising.
However, Liang Weining did some calculations for Teacher Xie, "I am 22 years old this year, with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan. I am expected to get a salary increase of at least 20% after the new year. If I develop well, I should be no worse off than the other party in six years, right?"
After pausing to pick the vegetables, Teacher Xie nodded with satisfaction at her daughter's smart and capable appearance. "That's it. When we eat later, be polite and respond to her politely. Know when to do it. Don't offend anyone during the New Year."
Liang Weining raised his eyebrows.
It seems that this year's New Year's Eve dinner will be a bit lively.
It turned out that Teacher Xie was very far-sighted.
At the dinner table, everyone raised their glasses to welcome the New Year. It is inevitable to drink too much on the day of family reunion.
At last, the uncle got a little drunk, so he patted Lao Liang on the shoulder and said drunkenly: "Second brother, in my opinion, girls should still put their families first. While you are still young, get married and have children early, manage the family well, and then everything will go smoothly."
"As parents, we can only help our child with her lifelong affairs. As for when to get married, it's up to her to decide." Lao Liang drank his wine, unmoved, and stood by his daughter as always.
When the eldest aunt heard this, she quickly interrupted, "Girls in their early twenties are in their prime age, just like her cousin."
At this point, the aunt turned around and continued to her niece, "If your cousin hadn't listened to me and your uncle's advice, she wouldn't have been able to marry so well. Look, now she's a rich wife, she doesn't have to work so hard, she can focus on her family, and she has 100,000 yuan in pocket money every month. There's nothing to worry about in such a life, right?"
"."
Liang Weining had no right to comment on her cousin's marriage.
But that doesn't mean she has no right to defend her emotional values.
"Uncle, aunt." Liang Weining filled the glass with wine and stood up, toasting the two elders, smiling and saying, "In the new year, I wish you two good health, all your wishes come true, and everything goes well."
She drank first as a sign of respect.
Then, pour the second cup, "Uncle, aunt, I have a request."
"What kind of unkind invitation?"
Liang Weining sighed: "You are right, I don't want to work so hard to earn money, so I plan to quit my job recently and start a business with my friends.
But I still need one million in start-up capital. My cousin is so rich, can you be the middleman and help me borrow some money? Not much, just 500,000 is enough, and I will find other ways to get the rest."
The two of them listened.
Borrow money?
Half a million!
The couple looked at each other. The table fell strangely quiet.
After a while, the aunt smiled awkwardly and said, "Although your cousin gives you enough pocket money, after all——"
After all what.
You probably don’t need to ask any more questions about the rest, as you will understand.
Seeing that the other party was in a difficult situation, she naturally stopped forcing him.
Liang Weining said: "You sent your cousin abroad for further studies, and after returning, she earned 100,000 yuan a month, which is quite good among her peers.
It’s just that I haven’t seen my cousin for several years. The last time we met was at a wedding five years ago. I hope she will be free next year and bring her brother-in-law and children back to Chengdu for the New Year. This will always be her home.”
As soon as she finished speaking, my aunt's eyes instantly turned red, as if she had been touched upon by something sad.
Teacher Xie stood by and watched the whole process, and only at the end did he scold her: "Child, you have a great day, don't keep saying sentimental words."
Liang Weining knew that there was something wrong with his words and didn't want to embarrass Old Liang, so he just passed it by and changed the subject.
In the afternoon, after seeing off her uncle's family, she breathed a sigh of relief.
While shopping with Teacher Xie, she suddenly asked, "Ningning, are you in love?"
Ok?
Looking at her mother, she was stunned.
The next second he reacted and calmly played dumb: "How do you know I'm in a relationship?"
"My intuition is that you are obviously more impatient than in previous years on this New Year's Eve."
"You asked me to fight back."
Teacher Xie chuckled: "But your last sentence clearly carried strong personal emotions. For a moment, you even empathized with your cousin."
As expected of a Chinese teacher.
Nothing can be hidden from Teacher Xie’s eyes.
It's not empathy, I just feel pity.
I feel sorry for my cousin who is so proud that she is trapped in a cage.
Back then, my uncle and aunt threatened to commit suicide in order to send their daughter to a wealthy family, and the entire Liang family knew about it.
Can't they see whether my cousin is happy or not?
can see.
The reason why I chose to turn a blind eye was absurd, just to prove myself.
But just now, her mother asked her if she was in a relationship.
In the past, Liang Weining would probably tell the truth.
But at this moment, I felt a little hesitant.
As for what you are hesitating about.
Seeing that his daughter had been silent for a long time, Teacher Xie already knew what was going on.
When Liang Weining went to the cashier to pay, she was about to open the payment code on her mobile phone when her mother raised her hand to stop her.
Teacher Xie took out her wallet, handed her bank card to the counter, focused on entering her password, and said to her: "No matter what kind of boyfriend you find in the future or who you marry, it's up to you to decide. The only thing is, be kind to yourself."
Don't be wronged, don't give in.
Lao Liang and Teacher Xie are her strongest supporters in her life.
On New Year’s Eve, I watched the Spring Festival Gala with my parents and listened to the sound of firecrackers outside filling the night sky.
A family of three feels the strong New Year's Eve atmosphere.
Just after midnight, Liang Weining couldn't bear it anymore, so he yawned, went to wash up, and then returned to his room.
Lying in bed, I opened WeChat, which I hadn’t seen for a long time before going to sleep, and what caught my eye were the overwhelming Spring Festival greetings.
After editing one post, she sent it to a group of people.
After replying to all the messages, it was almost half past twelve.
When she was about to quit WeChat, she found that someone had added her as a friend.
Click in and take a look.
The other party's note is.
? ?
Don't worry, you'll see the boss tomorrow~
