Chapter 337: Routines Have Always Been the Way to Go (Happy Lantern Festival to Everyone)
340. Since ancient times, routine has been king.
Although Li Qin is already over 30, she also has her own little thoughts. That so-called "home" is now in a state of fragmentation.
Although my husband is "dedicated", it is true that he is incompetent. Li Qin's husband is Xu Heng, a salesperson for a Japanese goods company. At 35 years old, he is not even a supervisor. He follows a bunch of young people around all day long.
Forget it, the key is that Xu Heng loves to drink, and his "wine quality" is not that good. The two of them came from the same place, but now they have been wandering for more than ten years without even a nest of their own.
Xu Heng loves to drink, and Li Qin loves to play cards. These two people are really "like each other".
The salary of the two of them is just enough to live on. Xu Heng only earns more than 3,000 points a month, and Li Qin only earns more than 4,000 yuan a month. If they didn't have some "extra money" and rely on playing cards, their family life would be a problem.
Others may think that Li Qin's "glorious" life must be pretty good on the surface, but in fact, Li Qin's monthly living expenses do not exceed 800 yuan.
What is the concept of 800 yuan in Xiangfu? Even a meal in the cheapest school cafeteria now costs 5 yuan. Even if you eat in the cafeteria every day and occasionally buy some water, it will still cost about 600 yuan a month for living expenses.
But you must know that Li Qin is working, so there is no "discount" at school. The cheapest fast food lunch box is 10 yuan, and a bottle of mineral water is 2.5 yuan, which is her day's meal.
In the evening, she could only go back and buy a steamed bun and order it from Lao Ganma, but there was nothing she could do about the lunch box. After all, you still have to pay attention to the impact of working at the counter.
What? Why not be nice to yourself? Haha, let’s talk about Li Qin’s “bad habit”. Spending on playing cards accounts for more than 80% of her salary.
The clothes she wears are all the "off-the-shelf" ones sold on Maoyu, which basically don't cost more than 100 yuan. As for Xu Heng? Just kidding, his salary is not enough for him to drink.
But even so, Li Qin still sends 1,000 yuan from her salary to the elderly at home every month. After all, her son is still studying in her hometown, and this living expenses must be paid.
As for Xu Heng? Just kidding, how can he have any money?
The adult world is so difficult, and Li Qin naturally wants to live a life without worries about food and clothing. What she envied most was the proprietress of the mahjong parlor.
There are several houses in his house waiting to be collected for rent, and he spends the whole day playing cards with them in the mahjong parlor, and occasionally helps them buy food.
There is a mix of dragons and snakes in the mahjong parlor, and naturally there are also people who act as mistresses or concubines. However, this kind of people generally look down on "small stalls" like them, which have their own small circles.
Li Qin is naturally very envious of them. Their "husbands" usually invest hundreds of thousands for them to open a small store. If they are interested, they can go to the store. If they are not interested, just a few people can do it together. Beauty.
For these people, their "goal" is to "attract" their sponsors. It would be best if they can have the opportunity to become a regular employee. If they are a concubine at the end, they can be said to have no worries about food and clothing.
But Li Qin could only envy this kind of life.
Although it is easy to find a "financier" with her appearance and figure, it is not an easy matter to get a long-term meal ticket.
Many men just want to have a taste, isn't there a saying?
"If you want to drink milk, you don't necessarily need a cow at home."
So Li Qin's "sales" have never been good. The key is that she still can't let go. Whenever she wanted to take that step, the images of her husband and her son would appear.
"Hey, it seems I still don't have that fate." Li Qin sighed inwardly.
Although she didn't know what Tang Wen's "idea" was, if she could rely on Tang Wen, a big tree like Tang Wen, she would still be able to live and feed well in the future.
The main reason is that she still can't get over the hurdle in her heart.
That is what everyone knows: "You have to build a memorial arch after doing all that." People are so contradictory.
In fact, it’s not Li Qin’s fault. There are a lot of people like her in China. Many people can actually live a very "comfortable" life if they are willing to take that step.
But many people just suffer from the face issue, but only God knows how long this thing can last. This thing is actually just a wish between you and me.
Even Xiao Wang and Qin Feng had a lot of romantic debts before.
Take Qin Feng as an example, he is the kind who gets cheated. I wanted to keep it for a while just for fun, but I didn't expect that the girl took it seriously and even adjusted the pregnancy period.
In the end, she planned to give birth secretly, which was a bit fucked up. If Tang Wen hadn't reminded Qin Feng to send someone to follow him to the hospital to keep an eye on him and pay him after the operation, otherwise Qin Feng would have had one brain and two heads.
As for classmate Xiao Wang, it’s even more funny. My former classmate Xiao Wang had no idea that his family was rich, and he was "cheated" by a gangster girl when he was studying abroad.
Poor classmate Xiao Wang was cheated on when he had a girlfriend. The important thing is that the girl was also stupid. For a few thousand dollars, I went to accompany an old man as a peripheral, but I didn't know that I was next to a rich man.
It is precisely because of this that later classmate Xiao Wang was very disgusted with girls in the mixed circle, but classmate Xiao Wang's "hobby" of liking Internet celebrities has always been retained.
However, Xiao Wang likes petite and cute girls, while Tang Wen likes long legs the most. Qin Feng just got married to a "young lady", so he is much more low-key at the moment.
Even when they go out to play, they like the kind that pays for the favor, to save trouble.
In fact, there is never a shortage of girls around rich second-generations like them. Everyone always thinks that the coquettish or pure "gold-diggers" or "girls who hang out in circles" can deceive rich second-generations.
Don't be silly, rich second-generations are not brain-dead. Besides, which rich second-generation will lack girls around them? They are all very straightforward, okay? Don't you want them? You don't want to? Just kidding, there are a lot of people waiting.
As for the "local bosses" of the first generation of rich people? Don't even think about it. If they can become bosses, it means they are not stupid. You still want to play with them with your little tricks?
This is like a primary school student comparing strength with an adult, which is pure abuse.
Isn't it popular to go to MBA recently, and there are many "gold-diggers" who fantasize about catching a "first generation entrepreneur" from it.
This is even more funny. There are only two types of people who can go to MBA for further study.
One type is those who are determined to develop the company. Will they waste time dating you? Just kidding, they are all thinking about how to go public. Who will care about you if you raise money?
The second type is some of the first-generation locals who go there to get a "diploma". To put it nicely, they are here to get a diploma. To put it bluntly, they are here to find "high-level" outlets.
Those stupid "gold diggers" still think they can get promoted? Little do they know that they will just play around and leave, and they are tired of even looking back at you.
Women who can really catch prey in MBA or some advanced training classes are not simple "characters".
This group of people are very similar to Wendy from Huaxia. They have good abilities and extremely high emotional intelligence. These people generally target executives or shareholders of "listed" groups.
They use their own "abilities" as a stepping stone to create the image of a strong woman. You should know that many big guys have a "special fetish" for strong women.
The female CEO of a bicycle who followed Tang Wen's lead not long ago was just a puppet created by Xu Ying. How could she, a journalist, have any ability to do anything?
She has to look down for a long time before she can speak. Such people are just "playthings" of some big guys. The real strong women are like Wendy.
Although her "looks" are not good, her eyes are "vicious". Look at her. She is targeting executives of some well-known companies. She gets a higher level after each divorce.
It is no exaggeration to say that she got to the top by "sleeping" with her ex-husbands. But she still underestimated the means of these capitalists.
Even if she hooked up with executives in the Hollywood entertainment industry after several divorces, and even claimed to have a family fortune of tens of billions after the divorce, it was just a joke in the eyes of insiders.
Executives and shareholders are always "small roles". The real big guys behind the scenes are not obvious. For example, the five major financial groups in the United States.
In the eyes of these people, Wendy is just a jumping clown. No matter how hard Wendy tries, she can't get into the circle of these real bosses.
There is no way. The consortiums in the United States pay attention to "bloodline". It's even more so in China. They pay attention to the right family.
Let a divorced woman enter the four major families in China? It would be strange if others don't think you have a problem with your brain. The degree of conservatism in China is far beyond your imagination.
Even families like Qin Feng and Xiao Wang's family will never allow them to marry a woman who is in the "entertainment circle" or has a little story.
As for Hong Kong? On the surface, there are many rich children who are in love with celebrities, but in fact, there are only a handful of people who marry celebrities.
Even if there are those who marry celebrities, they are generally the second son. If the eldest son marries a celebrity, hehe, it means that the family has been "despised" by others.
Or out of touch, careful people can find that some women without "background" can also marry into the wealthy families in Hong Kong, such as Guo Jingjing before.
But if you look closely, you will know that they are a family developing towards the "pyramid". It is easier for a champion who has won "honor" to endorse.
Haven't you seen that after getting married, he still goes to nightclubs every day and has a good time every night?
Many families in Hong Kong who originally had a good relationship with the "pyramid" also got the opportunity to "endorse" because of their good relationship with the four major families in China.
Everyone knows the fate of the Li family. Before being bankrupted by Tang Wen, China was very dissatisfied with their opinions. Unfortunately, the Li family made one mistake after another.
In the end, the daughter-in-law became Tang Wen's forbidden food.
So there are only two ways for ordinary people to marry into a wealthy family. The first is to add "honor", so that some families will use her as a facade for "endorsement".
The second is simple, that is, to rely on your own "strength" to get promoted. For example, Wendy, but the premise is that you must keep "clean and self-disciplined".
If you have a rich love history, forget it. People will not marry a joke home.
Didn't you see that classmate Xiao Wang was forced by her family to go on a blind date recently? Those so-called "circle girls" really think they can trick the rich second generation?
However, there are always more solutions than problems, so many "strong women" now have a different way of thinking. They rely on their own "ability" to get close to their goals, first become concubines, and finally take the top position.
This is also the simplest and most direct way. If you want to seize the palace directly? Haha, the legitimate wife is just a freeloader? If you don't make her lose a layer of skin, you will be sorry for her.
Unlike Tang Wen's time and space, after taking a concubine in this time and space, the treatment of the concubine is not as good as that of the wife. But she also has the "right to speak".
To put it bluntly, since a man has taken a concubine, he must be responsible for the "living expenses", which is not a small expense. If children are born, although there is no inheritance right, the "share" of comfort is also indispensable.
So many men would rather fall in love than take a concubine. Just kidding, how much money can you spend on falling in love? After taking a concubine, the expenses are very high.
So many mixed circle girls who can't "trick" the rich second generation have changed their goals. While they are "dating" with the rich second generation and enjoying the food and the "luxury house" of the rich second generation, they start fishing to show off their wealth.
Their target is that kind of "dead otaku".
Yes, you heard it right. The ultimate goal of this kind of mixed circle girls is the technicians or some small leaders who are more otaku in technology companies or some big companies.
These people are "not very knowledgeable", to put it bluntly, they are just new to relationships and are very easy to be fooled. The key is that these people have the title of "honest people", the final target of the women in the circle.
They may not be rich, but having a house and a car is not very good, but they can still make a living. Of course, the top target of the women in the circle is some technicians with shares.
This kind of people can be said to be "rich". Although they are not dressed well, they definitely have a lot of money in their wallets. This kind of people are not good at socializing and just stay at home playing computer all day.
They really have too much experience with this kind of people. After they cheat the salary card by acting cute and cute, they can naturally go shopping.
The otaku thought he finally got the "favor" of the goddess, but he didn't know that he had become the goddess's ATM. This kind of people is the beginning of the initial PUG.
Many technicians were cheated of their property by these women and had nothing. (Tsk tsk, here is a piece of advice for everyone, don't bother with women like PUG, just have sex with them first, and then pull out the X and leave, believe me.)
Back to Tang Wen, Tang Wen was texting Zhou Qi with his mobile phone at this time.
"Are you off work?"
"Yeah, I'll wait for you at the gate right away."
Tang Wen smiled, put away his phone and drove towards the bank.
6 o'clock is the peak time for getting off work. After the Bentley slowly stopped at the door of the bank, many white-collar workers waiting for the car showed envy. Such a car may not be affordable for them even if they work hard all their lives, but it does not prevent them from appreciating it.
"Have you been waiting for a long time? Let's go buy some vegetables? What do you like to eat?" Zhou Qi knocked on the door and said while Tang Wen was still in a daze.
Tang Wen opened the door and let Zhou Qi get in the car and smiled: "I'm casual, I'm not picky."
"Sure enough, luxury cars are never short of girls."
"Tsk tsk, that beautiful leg."
People around envied.
Under Zhou Qi's guidance, Tang Wen drove to a nearby supermarket. Seeing the "arrogant" goddess in Starbucks trying to choose ingredients, Tang Wen smiled.
Sure enough, everyone who is called a goddess is another person's licking dog.
After buying the ingredients, Tang Wen drove to where she lived under Zhou Qi's guidance. Zhou Qi rented a single apartment with one bedroom and one living room, and the kitchen was right at the door.
"Please sit down first, I'll wash the vegetables." Zhou Qi put down the things and smiled at Tang Wen.
"Oh? What are you going to cook?" Looking at Zhou Qi in a bank uniform, Tang Wen smiled evilly and hugged her from behind.
Zhou Qi shivered for a while and said shyly: "Stir-fried pork with peppers, broccoli, seaweed egg drop soup, and a celery beef, woo woo woo woo."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Wen hugged Zhou Qi's head and kissed her seductive mouth domineeringly.
A moment later, a muffled hum came from the room and then the whole room was full of spring, only the clothes scattered on the ground told that this meal was very "long".
I'm going to a relative's house for dinner today, so for now I'll only update one chapter of 4,000 words.
