Deng Juan's family background was very poor, and her current career is definitely a counterattack for a rural girl.
Working at "Shrimp King" is not like being a nanny in Chen Li's house. Deng Juan not only has to improve her shortcomings, but also overcome her character flaws and help Qin Jiao expand the market in Beijing. Her current success is the result of Deng Juan's hard work.
Wen Ying had seen and heard of such things before, and was no longer surprised. However, Qin Jiao found it hard to imagine: "Why would they do this to their own daughter?"
It’s not Qin Jiao’s fault that she is not down-to-earth. It’s because of the environment she grew up in that she is not down-to-earth.
There are no poor friends around Qin Jiao. Wen Ying used to be the one with the most ordinary family background among Qin Jiao's friends. Even if Wen Ying did not make money by writing novels, Chen Ru did not become a business backbone, and Wen Dongrong was still working in his hometown county, in Qin Jiao's eyes, "ordinary family background" is still far better than the Deng family!
Qin Jiao's understanding of these matters is relatively lacking.
In the Qin family, Qin Jiao received the same educational resources as her brother Qin Yi since childhood. Whatever clothes and toys her brother Qin Yi had, Qin Jiao must have too. Because she was the younger sister, sometimes she even had one or two more new clothes and toys than her brother.
After they became adults, Qin Xianming promised to give each of his children a start-up fund of 1 million yuan. Qin Yi took it, and Qin Jiao also got the same share.
Even Qin Xianming's business would not automatically inherit Qin Yi's inheritance just because he was his son. Qin Xianming said that whoever was more capable, Qin Yi or Qin Jiao, would be the one to take charge of the family business!
Looking back at Qin Jiao's growth experience, the word "equality" has always run through it. Such a family environment makes Qin Jiao confident and excellent. She has never limited herself by gender. Whatever her brother Qin Yi can do, she can do too.
Qin Jiao had not observed closely any examples of "preferring sons over daughters" in other friends' families. In the special context of the times, all of her friends' families had only one child.
Of course, Qin Jiao was not completely detached from the world. She had vaguely heard of it, but had never really faced it. So after hearing Wen Ying's words, Qin Jiao was shocked and confused.
Before Wen Ying could answer, Qin Jiao added, "What I mean is that even if the Deng family used to favor boys over girls, now that Sister Deng Juan is so capable, they should change their mindset, right?"
Deng Juan is capable, and the Deng family should rely on her instead of frequently calling her to pressure her!
Although she didn't know what the Deng family said specifically, based on the information provided by Wen Ying, Qin Jiao guessed that it was related to "money".
More than 90% of the troubles in this world are caused by money. Theoretically, as long as a person is rich enough, 90% of the troubles will disappear on their own.
Deng Juan used to earn 1,000 yuan a month and send 900 yuan home.
Deng Juan's monthly salary has now tripled, and she receives a bonus at the end of the year that is higher than her basic salary, but she only sends 500 yuan home every month.
...Is this what makes the Deng family unhappy?
"Jiao Jie, if it's so easy to change one's mindset, is there still backwardness and ignorance in this world?"
From Qin Jiao's perspective, if you want something, you have to bow your head. Businessmen have to bend down if they want to make money. The Deng family is not satisfied with only getting 500 yuan from Deng Juan a month. They have to spend more time to make Deng Juan happy and make Deng Juan willing to send more salary back home.
Wen Ying denied Qin Jiao's thinking. "They're used to being tough. In their eyes, Sister Deng Juan's fate was already determined from birth. They can just casually raise her, get a sum of money and marry her off when she grows up. Even getting married wouldn't be a relief for Sister Deng Juan. Her responsibilities to her brother from her mother's side haven't been lifted. She'll be devoted to him until the day she dies! That's why they won't change their minds. They think it's natural. Why should they change?"
If the Deng family had the same level of thinking as Qin Jiao, they would have lived a prosperous life even if they lived in a poor rural area, and would not have kept sucking Deng Juan's blood!
"However, I don't think that 500 yuan a month is too little..."
Wen Ying pondered, and Qin Jiao was curious: "Why not?"
Wen Ying was very confident: "Because when Sister Deng Juan changed jobs, I asked her not to tell her family for the time being. The Deng family still thinks she is still working as a nanny at my aunt's house!"
“…”
Qin Jiao was surprised: "Sister Deng Juan is honest and responsible, how could she agree to your suggestion?"
"I told her to think more about herself and the future of the Deng family. She could keep the money and give it to anyone she wanted later. If she sent too much back home, her father might drink it all. If she couldn't save any money no matter how much she sent, why didn't she save it herself? Living expenses in the countryside aren't high, and 500 yuan a month is enough. At least it's enough for her younger brother to go to school. She thought what I said made sense and agreed."
Deng Juan’s younger brother is three years younger than Deng Juan and is 19 years old this year.
The Deng sisters dropped out of school early, but this younger brother has been studying all the time. He started school late when he was young. Deng Juan's younger brother is older than Wen Ying, but they are in the same class and are now in their third year of high school.
There is still half a year left before the college entrance examination. Even if the Deng family has any ideas, they shouldn't make trouble now.
Wen Ying was puzzled, and Qin Jiao was also silent.
Li Mengjiao was a heartless person. She had just been shouting that she was hungry and wanted to eat quickly. After hearing Wen Ying's words, she was stunned for a long time. Wen Ying and Qin Jiao didn't bother to pay attention to her, so Li Mengjiao just held her breath.
Unable to hold it in any longer, Li Mengjiao suddenly asked, "Has the building of Sister Deng Juan's family been built yet?"
"What?"
Wen Ying couldn't catch up with Li Mengjiao's train of thought for a while.
Li Mengjiao gritted her teeth and said, "Aren't you going to marry your daughter and get money to build a house? Sister Deng Juan isn't married yet, and only her sister got married and only received 20,000 yuan. Is that enough money to build a house?"
