Chapter 1065 Life Is Full of Troubles

When the weather enters November, the autumn wind has begun to turn cold in Yangjiacun. The 911 incident shocked the country at the exact time. Although the villagers in Yangjia Village were concerned about politics and the international environment because of the "big shots" living there, they were also anxious at that time.

But it was just a matter of urgency, and soon everyone began to live step by step again. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming in two or three months, we can get a rough idea of ​​how much we will earn this year.

So those with a lot of income began to think about how to spend this good year, while those with a small income or even had debts continued to tighten their belts to see if they could make their lives better in the remaining few months.

It was summer when Yang Dongxu left his hometown. Everyone wore wide-sleeved pants and a pair of flip-flops. Now he needs to put on a coat in the morning.

The plan at the dinner table to help the general pursue his wife when he left has now come to an end. The relationship is now confirmed, although it cannot be compared with a blind date. You cannot directly give a betrothal gift to get engaged, and then choose a good day to get married.

But the relationship between the two is going well now. The girl has been brought back to Yangjiacun several times and even spent the night at the general's house. The senior members of the woman's family have also been there several times, and her parents are quite satisfied.

So the general's parents, who had previously watched their son not find a wife, now began to worry about how to buy a house. Being a nurse is now considered a job that is considered an iron rice bowl. In other words, it is okay to be a person who eats royal food.

So there is such a stable and well-paying job, and the girl also has a diploma. You can't let a girl get married and go back to the countryside to have children and farm, right?

So even if the woman's family doesn't mention it, the man's side obviously needs to consider it when buying a house in the county. Buying a house in the county with the income of a general's family is actually not too stressful, after all, although housing prices have continued to rise in the past two years.

But the most obvious feeling is in those developed first-tier cities. Even if housing prices in small rural counties fluctuate, the best house will only cost more than 200,000 yuan.

The general's parents are fine with buying a house in the county town, but they are a bit dissatisfied with settling in the county town. After all, most of their family's income now comes from the money from the sports cars of the general and his father. In addition, the general and Xiaowu are working on some battlefields and other goods-selling businesses.

People say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and Yangjia Village has had a very good atmosphere in recent years. As long as they are willing to work hard, basically every household will be well-off.

If the son settled in the village as soon as he got married, it would be fine for the couple to live a happy life, but if they have been away from the village for a long time, some things will definitely change.

In addition, since they have settled in the county town, their children will definitely go to school in the county town in the future. If they want to bring their grandchildren, they will also need to go to the city. Let’s not talk about whether they can adapt to life in the city. The grandson grew up in the county town and had few playmates in the village. After a long time, can he still be considered a member of Yangjia Village?

If your family lives in a remote area and wants a better future for your children and grandchildren, then leave. But now there is a real dragon nesting in the village, so the relationship will suddenly become estranged.

To be honest, from the perspective of the general's parents, let alone going to school in the county for the betterment of college, even if they were directly promised an iron rice bowl, they would not change it. The iron rice bowl is reliable, the food that is popular at home and the spicy food is reliable?

Anyway, the general's parents are very confused now. They originally thought that their son had a girlfriend, or even a marriage partner. Then the life of my family should be very nourishing, but I didn't expect that having a daughter-in-law would cause me no less worries, and it seemed that there were even more things to worry about.

So before Yang Dongxu got home and had a good talk with his wife Zhou Ya, he was called to drink by the general. No one in the village knew about the kidnapping except Zhou Ya. As soon as I came back, someone asked me to drink. This was a symbol of my popularity and status in the village, so no one felt there was anything wrong with doing this.

Even Yang’s father and Yang’s mother told Yang Dongxu to be a little less. So he could only smile bitterly at Zhou Ya, and then went to the general's house while squeezing the little face of his son who he hadn't seen for several months with big eyes.

There were no outsiders. Xiao Wu and Daliang were all there. Yangjiacun is now very united and everyone sticks together, but externally Yangjiacun is a whole.

There are still several small groups within this whole group. For example, Daliang Xiaowu and Yang Dongxu are from the same old home. In addition, their grandparents have a common ancestor, and they also played together when they were young. The relationship is naturally closer.

People in other houses would also come to him for important matters, and overall the village seemed to be very harmonious. But when we were usually drinking and spanking, it was obvious that Xiaowu and the others didn't have the burden to just call him, but the others always felt that it was a bit uninteresting.

After a few glasses of wine, he started talking.

"Zhang Jing said that he would help me find a job in the county by looking for connections in a few days. I would do it first and then see if I could help get a staff. I went to ask and found out that the job only paid 2,000 a month. You still have to pay five insurances and one housing fund, etc. It would be good to get 1,500 in the end.

Then, with year-end benefits and other benefits, I can earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year, and that's it. Then he told me that even if I run my sports car casually for a month, it will only cost ten thousand less.

But she said that this job would allow her to receive a pension in her old age, and even if she did not work for a month after retirement, she would earn several thousand. I don't understand. I am currently earning at least 10,000 yuan a month. If I am tired, I can average 20,000 yuan a month. It will not be a problem.

I save 10,000 yuan a month. Even if I start saving at the age of 50, I can save 100,000 yuan a year. By the time I am 60, I will have saved 1 million yuan, right? After retirement, I will receive a pension of several thousand yuan a month, which is only a few dollars a year? I can get 1 million yuan when I live to be 100 years old? Don’t even mention that 1 million yuan is 500,000 yuan? "The general became more and more depressed and took a sip of wine.

"If you start saving money now and compare it with the pension, I guess you want to compare your lifespan with that of a turtle." Daliang smiled and put a peanut into his mouth.

"To put it bluntly, I feel that the work we do is dirty. We go out in the wind and rain and are covered in dust. Finding a place to drink and chat while eating is naturally not as impressive as sitting in the office and working with a small air conditioner. "Xiao Wu ended the conversation.

As for Dajiang's girlfriend, we can't really say whether she is good or bad. We occasionally eat together during this period, but I feel that she is a bit pretentious.

It can't be considered pretentious, but we can say that she is a child from the county town, with a diploma and a stable job. So she is a bit petty bourgeoisie and tasteful in her thoughts and life.

And what about them?

They grew up peeing and living in the mud, and some of them were beaten by their parents with bamboo sticks to finish the third year of junior high school, and then they refused to go to school. They drove a truck to take jobs and make friends, and drank and talked a lot.

In summer, short sleeves were rolled up to expose the belly, and it was OK to have wine and meat when eating. Who cares about the environment of the restaurant? As long as the dishes are clean, it's OK. In this way, the three views and pursuits of both parties are not in the same world. It would be strange if they didn't feel awkward to be together.

"You are not old enough, keep looking around. If you really can't separate, then get married. "Yang Dongxu didn't know how to persuade. If two people really like each other and can stick to it for a few years, maybe the situation can change.

Now people still want to save face, and reputation is also very important. But in a few years, we will enter a society where everything is about "money". Many things will change together, and maybe the woman can be more sympathetic at that time.

"Anyway, no matter what time, I will not leave the village. I feel that it is good in our village. Women should follow their husbands wherever they marry." The general snorted with a stiff neck.

But he didn't say "If it doesn't work, forget it". Even though he was a little drunk now, he didn't dare to say such a thing. Obviously, he really likes and cares about his girlfriend.

However, his stiff neck and seemingly face-saving words actually contain some truth in it. In addition to the hometown sentiment, the most important thing is that he really settled in the county.

With a formal job, life will definitely not be too bad, but the relationship with these childhood friends in the village will definitely be alienated. When drinking at the beginning, Xiaowu and a few others might call him, and it is still okay to come over for drinks and meals during festivals. Bragging makes people seem to be in harmony.

But the relationship will definitely become distant gradually. If there is anything in the village, just shout it out. Who will care about you after you have been in the county town for a long time?

This is not other villages. At the beginning of the year, the villagers are less and more than half of them go out to work. When they come back at the end of the year, everyone takes advantage of the New Year atmosphere to sit and sit, and there is not much feeling.

Ninety percent of the people in Yangjia Village are at home, although it is normal for four or five people not to come back for ten days or half a month because of sports cars. But living at home and living in the city are obviously two different concepts.

Then let’s talk about the growth of children. The school environment in the county town is indeed much better. But most of the friends that children make are in the city. , and they are not familiar with the kids in the village, which undoubtedly means they have cut off their retreat. When they go to the city, they can only focus on developing in the city.

But is the city really more promising than the village?

This is obviously not the case, at least not in Yangjia Village. As people from Yangjia Village, even if they go to Chengwang City or Jiaocheng City, they can still find connections to rely on. If they go to the county town and have no connections with the village, if you invite a local policeman to dinner, he will probably look at you with squinted eyes and ask who you are.

The general's parents and the general himself may not understand the truth here very well, but they have some idea in their hearts. But his girlfriend is obviously I haven't figured this out.

After all, although Yangjia Village is very famous, it is known to all the villages around, and people in the county town are also aware of it. Otherwise, the girl's parents would not be so willing to agree to this matter.

But most of those reputations are just legends, and they have been passed on for years. Most people have not seen the actual things with their own eyes, so naturally they don't feel it so clearly.

After a long time, everyone just saw that the people in Yangjia Village lived a good life, and those rumors about big officials were just like that. It's not as good as the current director or director who is in charge of me, or the director of the institute who gives me a big deterrent, and it's not as good as if these people invited me to dinner.
