Chapter 2424: Zhang Zicen was kidnapped?
For example, those who wanted a lot of gifts to marry off their daughters, and it was beyond the man's ability to afford. Those who couldn't afford it eventually fell through.
Of course, bride price has existed since ancient times, but marrying off a daughter does not mean selling her, so asking for an appropriate amount is enough, unless the man’s family can afford it and is willing to give it.
Of course, some men also want to marry a wife without spending any money, and if they ask for a reasonable amount of dowry, they will be accused of selling their daughter.
Anyway, the world is big and there are all kinds of people. It’s best to be willing to do it.
"My family doesn't have any idea of power-seeking or business marriage, but they still hope that I can find a family with a not too different family background from mine. They say that if the difference in family background is too big, it will be easy to have different values," Zhang Zicen also said.
"If the family background is too different, it is easy for the three values to be incompatible, especially when the woman is strong and the man is weak. Most men have strong self-esteem and are generally unwilling to find a woman whose family background is much better than their own, because they will feel inferior. Even if these men are willing to marry you because of money or because of their temporary love for you, if he is unable to become a better person, it will be easy for him to become psychologically distorted in the course of life in the future, and therefore do things to betray you. Of course, there are good men, but there are too few of them in this realistic society. You will never know what kind of person he is until it happens." Gu Ning said.
In this society, there are more people who care about family background than those who don’t. Therefore, many things cannot be idealized and must be made realistic.
For example, after she got together with Leng Shaoting and learned about Leng Shaoting's identity, she asked Leng Shaoting whether his family would object to this statement, because she also had her self-esteem and did not want to be looked down upon.
Of course, her self-esteem is proportional to her ambition. Since she doesn't want to be looked down upon, she will certainly improve her own life value.
Of course, she doesn’t care if Leng Shaoting’s family looks down on her or not. She only cares about Leng Shaoting’s attitude.
Even if the Leng family looked down on her and disagreed with them being together, as long as Leng Shaoting protected her and wanted to be with her no matter what, she would not care about the attitude of the Leng family and would be with Leng Shaoting.
As for those who look down on her, she just treats them as strangers.
However, if Leng Shaoting had any hesitation about this matter, she would have turned around and left without any reluctance. This was also due to her strong self-esteem.
"I feel that men are more showy than women nowadays. Take the ones I've met for example! As for women, once they like someone, most of them don't care much about the man's conditions, but what about men? They don't need the woman's conditions to be better than theirs, but they definitely can't be worse, and they also have all kinds of requirements for women. They hope that you can take care of the family, make money, give birth to children, take care of the children, and serve the parents-in-law. It's not like marrying a wife, but looking for a paid high-level nanny. Last week, my cousin got divorced. My cousin disliked my aunt working at home and not taking care of the family. But when my aunt gave birth to a child that year, she didn't go to work but managed the house in order. Then she was disliked for staying at home all day and not working, saying how tired he was alone. So men! You can never be satisfied. Then my aunt couldn't stand it anymore, filed for a divorce, left the house, and only wanted the child." Zhang Zicen said. She felt that her cousin was too inhuman. When she learned about this, she scolded him! Of course, she was just complaining at home. After all, no matter how bad the other person was, it was their business, and she had no right to scold them in front of them.
However, her mother did directly blame her cousin, but her cousin still felt that he was not wrong, and then her mother didn't care anymore.
Just two days ago, her cousin called her mother and asked her for help with something, but her mother directly refused.
Although they are cousins, her mother's cousin has a bad character and her mother doesn't want to get close to him.
"I hope we can all meet a good man! Of course, no one is perfect, and he doesn't need to be perfect. At least he should have a positive outlook, good character, and be considerate and caring about his wife. A warm man is a rare animal!" Song Miaoge sighed after hearing this. She was really worried that she would meet a scumbag! After dinner, everyone didn't go anywhere else to play, and went home. Because it was still early, Gu Ning didn't send them off. Because it was still early, there was nothing unsafe.
However, some accidents happen just when you think they are impossible.
Gu Ning watched them get a taxi and leave before leaving.
However, ten minutes later, Gu Ning received a call from Zhang Zicen. Although no one spoke into the receiver, she could be heard talking to the driver.
"Master, you must have taken the wrong path! I don't think this is the fork in the road!" Zhang Zicen said. His voice sounded calm, but Gu Ning could still sense his nervousness.
When Gu Ning heard this, he immediately felt something was wrong, so he immediately asked Gao Yi to turn around and chase in the direction Zhang Zicen had just left, and then continued to listen to the voice on the phone.
"Because there is a lot of traffic ahead, it will be faster to go around here," said the driver.
Zhang Zicen is from the capital. Although she is not completely familiar with the capital, the roads from the city to her home are places she often goes to, so of course she knows whether it is the way home.
So she knew very well that this road did not lead to her home at all, so she thought she might be kidnapped.
"Oh! Okay!" Zhang Zicen responded without asking any more questions, then hung up the phone and shared the location with Gu Ning on WeChat.
Zhang Zicen was very nervous and scared, her body was shaking, but she forced herself to hold it back, trying her best to make herself look as if nothing was wrong.
However, because Gu Ning knew her situation, she knew that Gu Ning would come as soon as possible, so she was able to barely hold back her fear.
From time to time, the driver looked at Zhang Zicen from the middle rearview mirror. Seeing that Zhang Zicen looked calm, he thought that she believed him.
And seeing that she wasn't playing with her phone, I wasn't too worried about who she was talking to on the phone.
Gao Yi ran all the way following the address shared by Zhang Zicen and ran through several red lights. Saving people was the most important thing now, so he couldn't care less about so many other things.
Because Gu Ning and Zhang Zicen had been separated not long ago, and the driver was driving within the speed limit, but Gu Ning was driving twice as fast as him, so after ten minutes, Gu Ning was close to the taxi carrying Zhang Zicen.
