After Miao Cuihong's daughter came in, her eyes lit up as she looked around at the furnishings. Aunt Miao pulled her daughter along and proudly introduced the room to Aunt Fang:
“Isn’t my daughter beautiful? You have no idea how many men in our village would climb walls, jump into rivers, and fight just to see her. If my daughter smiles at someone, that man is guaranteed to lose sleep at night! It’s just that my daughter has high standards and wants to marry a city man, so she’s kept her heart set on never having dated anyone in our hometown. If my daughter could marry a rich man from the city, she’d never have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of her life.”
Aunt Fang smiled. Miao Cuihong's daughter was indeed quite good-looking, with a neat appearance, young and tender. Her eyes were like hooks when she looked at people, and her hips swayed as she moved. Most men would definitely like her. But Aunt Fang wasn't a man, so why was she telling her all this?
Everyone here has a daughter, and Aunt Fang was thinking that when it came to raising her daughter, she should teach her to be a decent person.
Does a young woman really have a life free from worries about food and drink just by relying on a man?
Aunt Fang doesn't think so.
Marrying a good man is the icing on the cake for a woman, but if you yourself lack ability and only think about crooked and evil ways, it's impossible for it to last.
Men aren't stupid. Why would they turn down a great woman and insist on someone like you who only uses her looks to please them?
Aunt Fang wiped the table and said with a smile, "I hope my daughter works hard, studies hard to get a bachelor's degree, and can hold her head high at work. When she gets married, her in-laws will also look up to her because of her excellence. Otherwise, if she doesn't have any ability, her in-laws will look down on her."
"Your thinking is outdated. Who earns money on their own these days? There's a girl in our village who didn't even finish elementary school. She became a mistress to a big boss from Taiwan, had a son, and now drives luxury cars, lives in a mansion, and is adorned with gold and silver. Who wouldn't be envious?"
Aunt Fang frowned. What's so enviable about a young woman who doesn't rely on herself and only thinks about crooked ways to make money by being a mistress?
"Anyway, I don't want my daughter to become that kind of person. Miss Zhou found my daughter a job with a pretty high salary. If my daughter works hard, she might even get a promotion and a raise. If she can also get a bachelor's degree and become a proper college student, then I'm willing to endure any hardship."
Aunt Fang is too honest and inflexible. Aunt Miao looks down on her. When the employer is not home, Aunt Fang doesn't even take a break. She's always doing laundry, wiping the table, and coaxing the children. What good can come of being so honest?
One should learn to be smarter in life.
Where did Miss Zhou get the connections to find a job for her daughter? In the end, it all comes down to Mr. Dai. He's always trying to undermine her. If you want Miss Zhou's connections, you might as well just win Mr. Dai over.
Aunt Miao thought her daughter was so beautiful that any man would be envious, and Mr. Dai was no exception.
Aunt Miao said with a half-smile, "What's the use of a daughter having a high level of education? In the end, she'll still be bearing and raising children. Ultimately, the most important thing for a woman is to serve her man well and marry a good man. When you meet a good man, you have to hold on tight and do everything you can to keep him in your grasp, otherwise, you'll miss your chance. You should also advise your daughter not to think about getting a bachelor's degree at such a young age. It's a waste of her youth, and she'll still get married after graduation. It's pointless! She'd be better off taking advantage of her youth and beauty to find a rich boss. Once she gives birth to a son for him, her position will be secure, and she'll be rolling in money!"
Aunt Fang felt that Aunt Miao's words were an insult to her.
She was an honest person who believed that people had to rely on themselves, especially women, because those who were not honest would not have a good ending.
But she didn't know if her views were really outdated.
She didn't want her daughter to rely on sacrificing her looks to please men and earn money. Life was too hard, with everyone begging for money. Aunt Fang had suffered a lot of grievances in her husband's family before. It was only after she went out to work and sent money home every month to build a house that her status improved.
A woman's life is not easy. Aunt Fang hopes her daughter will work hard and stay in Beijing to work and get married. Men in Beijing are of higher quality than those in her hometown, and the probability of living happily in Beijing is also higher than in her hometown. Aunt Fang understands this, and hopes her daughter can understand it too.
Aunt Miao pursed her lips, thinking that Aunt Fang wasn't very bright.
She turned around and scolded her daughter: "Don't listen to her. By the time her daughter finishes her bachelor's degree, how old will she be? What man likes an older woman? Men all like young, fresh-faced girls. You should just focus on keeping a man in your grasp while you're young. Did you hear what I said? When Mr. Dai comes back later, you need to make a good impression on him and make him take a liking to you."
Aunt Miao's daughter is named Rou Rou. Rou Rou has always been obedient. Her mother didn't want her to go to school, so she refused to. Her mother said there were many rich men in Beijing, so she came to Beijing with her mother to work.
Rou Rou also wanted to find a big boss, but those big bosses were very shrewd and didn't care about a young girl like Rou Rou. Rou Rou heard from her mother that Mr. Dai was tall and handsome, so she hoped to meet Mr. Dai.
The door was pushed open, and Aunt Miao nudged Rou Rou. Rou Rou stood at the door with a blush on her face and saw a tall man walk in. He had three-dimensional features, deep eyes, upright posture, and an unruly demeanor. Rou Rou had never seen such a handsome man before, and her heart was pounding wildly.
Seeing that there was an extra person in the house, Dai Donglin frowned and said:
Who is this?
Aunt Miao quickly smiled apologetically, "This is my daughter. She came to pick up some things. I wanted her to say goodbye to you and Miss Zhou before she left."
