Gu Liuliu was a little dumbfounded. How could this be? She hadn't even considered getting married in the future. Besides, how could it be so miserable?
Looking at Gu Liuliu, he was a little dumbfounded, and he couldn't believe that he would not even be willing to eat a biscuit in the future.
Li Cuiying continued, "Liu Liu, you can say that your mother didn't consider your feelings in order to find you a good match.
But what I just said is still the best case scenario. I haven’t mentioned the worse case scenario.
"Besides, the Wang family's current situation means they don't even have a place to live after getting married. Think about it, you have a separate room in your own home. Do you think you'll end up living in the same room with your in-laws after you get married? But when the time comes, it might be difficult to even turn around."
It’s not that Li Cuiying had to describe the situation so tragically, but if Gu Liuliu really married him, the child’s life would be ten or a hundred times more difficult, no less.
But Gu Liuliu, who had not experienced the harshness of society, obviously did not believe that she would be so miserable.
"No, Wang Hua said that after he gets married, his family will build a separate extension outside, so we don't have to live with his family."
Gu Liuliu naively took Wang Hua's casual promise as something that had already been fulfilled.
Li Cuiying smiled disdainfully: "When will it be built? Wang Hua is already quite old, isn't he? Besides, since you have already discussed this matter, why hasn't Wang Hua told his family yet? Then why haven't they believed it yet?"
Besides, even if his family really expands the house, are you sure you can eventually live in it?
Would the two pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law above agree? They live in a small house of a few square meters with their families, or even several families sleeping on a kang. Are you sure they will agree to give you a new house?
No matter who this house is given to, one thing is certain: before you even get married, you'll have a grudge against the other two sisters-in-law. Either they have something against you, or you have something against them. Are you sure you can still live a peaceful life then?"
Gu Liuliu didn't know how to refute.
"Does it mean that as long as you have money, life will be better? As long as you have money, your relationship will be happy forever? Are poor people bound to be unhappy?
What about my uncle and aunt? Their family conditions are among the best anywhere, but are they happy? They may not even see each other for years. Even when my aunt was pregnant and about to give birth, my uncle didn't come back.
It turns out that having money doesn’t guarantee everything will go as planned, doesn’t it?
Jiang Mengxue didn't know why she was being talked about, and looked up at the few people with a puzzled look on her face.
Li Cuiying had a gloomy face, while Wang Daya looked embarrassed and reached out to pull Gu Liuliu's arm.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? How do you talk to your elders?"
Gu Liuliu didn't care, she was not wrong.
At first, she thought that her uncle and aunt were a perfect match, and they were so well-matched that they would definitely live a happy life together in the future.
But the reality is completely different from what I imagined.
My aunt has to do everything by herself, and my uncle can't always be by her side. To be honest, what's the difference between this and living alone?
So sometimes it’s better to find someone more ordinary, at least he can be with you all the time, isn’t that better?
If Jiang Mengxue knew what this little girl was thinking, she would only say that you are still too young and don’t know how good it is to be alone. She doesn’t know how many people are looking forward to such a life.
"Liu Liu thinks this is bad for me? But I think it's fine. I have my own job and live with my second uncle and second aunt. I have someone to accompany me and take care of me. Although I am separated from your uncle, we have always exchanged letters, and our relationship has become better. It is inevitable that two people will quarrel after being together for a long time, but we have never had a quarrel.
Life is nothing more than daily trivialities, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, sleeping, all the housework at home, and then there is the economic situation. If the conditions are not good, people will quarrel because the grain price increased by one cent today, or because the woman bought a piece of clothing, the man bought a pack of good cigarettes, bought a bottle of good wine, and the child wanted to eat meat or candy today but had no money, so they would quarrel.
We have everything we need, and even the things that cause other families to quarrel are not a problem here. Why do you think this kind of life is not good?"
Seeing that Gu Liuliu's expression was a little stiff, Jiang Mengxue didn't give her time to think and continued with the next words.
“Do you think that in our family, is it your uncle who is reluctant to spend money on me, or am I reluctant to eat and tell him to eat and drink well?
Then I tell you, neither of them will happen, because we don’t need anything, even if the living standard is higher, we can afford it. But Liu Liu, you and that Wang Hua together only make thirty or forty yuan a month, can you afford it?
I am not telling you this to make you take money too seriously. When looking for a partner, you must judge based on the other person's conditions, but you cannot take it lightly.
To put it simply, the three views of the two people must be consistent.
In your life from childhood to adulthood, you think that in your free time you should go shopping with friends, watch a movie, and if you feel hungry, go to a state-owned restaurant for a meal.
When you see clothes you like, you will save up two months' pocket money to buy them. These all seem normal to you. This has been your life since you were a child.
But whenever you are particularly happy, there is always someone spoiling your fun. How would you feel?
What's so good about the movie? It's not like I haven't seen it before.
The food in the state-owned restaurant is so expensive. It would be more cost-effective if we buy a pound of meat to take home.
As long as the clothes are wearable, there's no need to dress up after getting married. You can still wear them even if you patch them up."
Before Jiang Mengxue could finish her words, Gu Liuliu was almost overwhelmed.
Anyone who is happy will be annoyed if someone spoils the fun.
"No way, sometimes when I want to see a movie, Wang Hua will go with me. When I buy clothes, he even praises how beautiful they are."
Gu Liuliu said this and she felt less confident.
Although Wang Hua would always meet her requests, he did not complain and also reminded her that she could not do this after getting married.
"You've seen the movie so many times, aren't you tired of it? Let's go to the park next time.
The food in state-owned restaurants is definitely not as delicious as what you cook. After we get married, we will cook at home every day.
This dress is too ordinary. It doesn’t look as good as the ones you usually wear. Your previous clothes were pretty good.
You have so many clothes, you can never wear them all out, you won’t have to buy clothes for the rest of your life.”
When I listened to him before, I just thought he was very considerate and romantic.
But now that I think about it, what does he mean?
