There are 3 permanent residents in the household:
Xu Manman, the eldest daughter of the Xu family;
Xu Manman's mother - Ms. Zhao Zhongli;
Xu Manman’s younger sister is the youngest of the Xu family - Xu Jiajia.
There are 2 more floating populations:
Xu Manman's father, Xu Cheng, is a long-time out-of-town engineer, so he only comes home four or five times a year.
Xu Manman's younger brother, Xu Meng, the second son of the Xu family, is a playboy. He feels that staying at home is not free enough, so he decides to go to City C to make a living, determined to make a big career. He rents a house and finds partners.
Finally, he returned to his old job - a delivery boy. What can I say? I wish him success.
Xu Manman, the eldest daughter in the family, resigned from her job at the end of the previous year. It has been almost a year and a half now. She doesn't look for a job, doesn't socialize, doesn't go out, and just lies at home all day.
I just celebrated my 29th birthday two days ago. According to the calculation in my hometown, I am now 30 years old. I am old, unemployed, and single. With these conditions, no one would even want to look at me in the blind date market.
In the past two years, my parents and grandmother tried hard to arrange blind dates for Xu Manman, but she was just too disappointing. It’s not that she refused to cooperate, but she just wasn’t attracted to him. Forcing them to be together would make both of them uncomfortable, and it would be better for her to be happy alone.
When Xu Manman joined her last company, she didn't know if it was because of too much pressure or just her natural constitution, but she gained weight like a balloon.
I was originally 155cm tall and weighed 120 pounds. Even if I eat a lot, my weight will not exceed 130 pounds. Because my flesh is relatively firm, I just look a little fat.
I ended up working in sales for that company. After two years, my weight nearly reached 160 pounds. A physical examination revealed moderate fatty liver disease and polycystic ovary syndrome.
Working in sales or the service industry not only puts you under great pressure to perform, but you also have to be on the job 24/7, 356 days a year. The thing I dread most when working is lunch break. Even though I only have two hours, I can never sleep well. Often, the phone rings as soon as I close my eyes. Even though the salary at the end of the month is great, the pain is real.
Based on the results of the physical examination, Xu Manman decisively resigned, thinking of taking a break and recuperating for a while.
Rest is real rest, but it is not necessarily recuperation. His whole day and night are reversed. He never sleeps at night and sleeps until almost sunset during the day. He never goes out and just lies at home. The longest record is that he has not gone out for 2 months. The battery of the electric car downstairs could not be charged due to the excessive use of the battery. The dust had accumulated and it was covered with patina. Lao Xu had to come back to clean it up.
But this kind of schedule brings one advantage. You only have to eat one meal a day. If you can't make it in time for breakfast and lunch, you can only eat dinner. A few months ago, my grandmother came from my hometown. Because she didn't like the food, she stopped eating. So I bought a few boxes of vegetarian corn on pxx. I eat this every day, plus some snacks. I have given up drinking drinks a long time ago.
I persisted for a few months, and when I went back to my hometown for the Chinese New Year, I didn't dare to touch any meat or fish. I was so hungry every night. It was really painful, but at least I persisted and lost nearly 40 pounds. Now I weigh about 110 pounds. I still have some fat, but at least I'm not too fat. Many of the skirts I bought before and couldn't wear can now look good in me.
Two days ago, Lao Xu came back and first expressed his affirmation of Xu Manman's weight loss results. At the same time, he also suggested that she could lose more than ten pounds. As a former tailor, Comrade Lao Xu has very high requirements for his figure. He has also insisted on exercising for a long time. Although he is old now and has a little belly, it has nothing to do with being fat.
"Sister, are you up yet?"
After looking through the chat history, as expected, my best friend Comrade Aijia shared the news about the cheating boyfriend again.
Aiga bought something before and got a group purchase coupon. It was like a badger in a melon field. There was a melon every day, and the melons were exploding, destroying her worldview. As best friends who lived thousands of miles apart, they could only communicate through WeChat every day. But Xu Manman was very negative when replying to WeChat, so she had to send a melon first to piss her off.
"It was only after I saw the second half, when the wife started beating someone, that I realized who the mistress was."
Today, the scumbag cheated again. His original wife caught him having sex with another woman in a hotel and beat up the scumbag's mistress.
"Hmm, help me see which of these decorations looks good?"
This sister is going to hold her wedding on May Day and has been preparing for the wedding recently. Apart from going to work every day, she is busy choosing decorations, dresses, makeup, wedding candies... Today she is choosing decorations for the new house.
"I choose the second one."
After sending another series of messages, it seems that Xu Manman still sticks to her choice.
"It's better to be in the red when getting married, I'll choose that one"
"OK"
No more nonsense for adults, today’s communication is over.
I opened Fruit Novel and recently became obsessed with the cool novels about the period. I couldn't stop reading them. It might be because I've been poor for so long. I envy the heroines of the period novels who have a golden finger and can go back to the time to take the college entrance examination, achieve a career, become rich, and by the way, hold hands with a tall and handsome boy.
No matter how envious she is, Xu Manman is always a nobody in reality.
