Soon two more messages popped up, sent by Teacher Wang.
Teacher Wang: "Lin Yu, I haven't been able to contact you recently. Are you okay? Do you have time to meet up and talk?"
Teacher Wang: "Although I don't know why you missed the college entrance examination, I know you are a good child. It's okay for you to repeat the year and take the exam again."
Lin Yu had an impression of Teacher Wang. She was the only ray of light that shone into the original owner's dark life. Over the years, whenever the original owner was bullied by Lin Shuyu and her little followers, she would stand up to stop them.
Although the effect was minimal, at least he had made an effort and did not try to please Lin Shuyu or the Lin family like other teachers did.
Lin Yu thought about it and told the other party that he was safe. He agreed to meet and asked Teacher Wang to set a time. The original owner didn't have time to thank him, so he asked her to complete it for her.
Teacher Wang asked her to meet him tomorrow afternoon.
Lin Yu agreed. After applying the medicine, he washed up and went to bed.
The next morning, Lin Yu made himself some egg and tomato noodles. After eating, he picked up his bag and went out.
She and Teacher Wang made an appointment to meet at Wangyue Park.
Wangyue Park is not far from where she lives, and it only takes half an hour to get there by car.
Because the agreed time was in the afternoon, Lin Yu planned to take a walk first.
I heard that there is a blind date corner in Wangyue Park. Many people come to the blind date corner to express their or their children’s mate selection criteria and contact information. If there is someone they like or are interested in, they will take the initiative to contact them.
This simple and intuitive approach continued for a hundred years.
A hundred years from now, not to mention parks, even the streets will have personal information and mate selection criteria posted. The population is so sparse and the country is so big that if you don't think of something, you won't even have time to choose before you make your choice, because there will be no one left to choose from.
Some people even start dating since the day they become adults, but still can't find the right one.
Before becoming a matchmaker, Lin Yu had been hanging out at blind date corners. With the help of her special abilities, she could help people find the most suitable partners through their photos.
I wonder if the blind date corner a hundred years ago would be as sparsely populated as it is in later generations?
Lin Yu arrived at Wangyue Park with great curiosity, and quickly found the blind date corner in the center of the park by following the signs.
From a distance, Lin Yu could see people gathering together, and the scene was very lively.
Everyone was still discussing something heatedly.
"2,000 yuan a month? You're not looking for a son-in-law, you're looking for a free male nanny!"
"You don't even give the betrothal gift. How can such a cheap thing happen in this world?"
"I help you take care of your parents at home and raise your children, and you only give me 2,000 yuan a month, which is not even enough for the bride price. Do you think this amount of money is enough to live on?"
The noisy conversation reached Lin Yu's ears, and she keenly grasped the word "son-in-law" and the two thousand yuan living expenses.
Lin Yu decided to join in the fun, and with her agile body and shameless actions, she squeezed to the front.
I saw a tall girl with outstanding looks surrounded by people. In front of her stood a white board with the requirements for "recruiting a son-in-law" posted on it.
1. No betrothal gift or dowry is required, and the child will take the mother’s surname.
2. The man does not need to work after marriage and only needs to take care of his parents and children.
3. Give 2,000 yuan a month for groceries.
She also kindly suggested that she could accompany the man home to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
In Lin Yu's opinion, the young lady expressed it very clearly, that is, those who are interested can contact each other and that's it, but the men surrounding the scene were obviously not happy about it.
He kept criticizing the girls.
"You have already accepted a son-in-law, why don't you even give the betrothal gift?" asked an old man with a stern look.
The girl smiled and said, "I don't give a betrothal gift, and I don't ask for a dowry either. This is reasonable, right?"
Lin Yu looked at the information above the girl's head and learned that her name was Song Li, she was 26 years old, the only child in the family, easy to get along with, and had positive values.
"Why do you girls ask for a betrothal gift, but when it's your turn to find a husband, you don't give a betrothal gift? Isn't this double standard?" a man said unhappily.
Song Li pointed at the sign and smiled, "It's acceptable. Some girls ask for a betrothal gift to plan for their family. They want to stay home and raise children and take care of the family, so they can have a secure environment."
"It's my personal opinion that I don't give a betrothal gift or ask for a dowry back. If you can accept that, you can come to me."
She said it not only tactfully but also clearly, but the men standing in front of her had no intention of letting her go.
"Then tell me, is 2,000 yuan a month enough for groceries? She has to take care of your family, and the child has to take your surname. You're not just looking for a male nanny."
Lin Yu looked over in the direction of the voice and saw the angry old man, who was sixty years old. He came out specifically to arrange a blind date for his son and was holding the standards for marrying his son's daughter-in-law in his hand.
The information shows that he is usually a male chauvinist and easily gets serious. No matter whether he is right or not, he will argue with the other party until the other party admits his mistake.
This man said that 2,000 yuan was not enough to take care of the whole family, but he only gave his wife this much every month, and at the end of the year he still had to ask how much he had saved.
It turns out that he himself knows that the two thousand yuan is not enough to support his family, so he is the one who is being hypocritical.
Lin Yu's expression at this moment was like an old man on the subway looking at his phone, speechless to the extreme.
Because Lin Yu started a live broadcast to increase his popularity when he came, many people heard the old man's speech and started to post comments.
[Master Mumumu: So they all know that 2,000 yuan a month isn't enough for living expenses, so they have to give a betrothal gift?]
[No. 111: It feels like the girl is the one who's at a disadvantage. Look, she still has to give birth and recover on her own, and she hasn't even taken that into account, and they're already getting mad.]
[Bai Tian: This little sister really makes me cry. She is sacrificing herself to blow up the cesspool!]
[Spicy Rabbit Head: As expected, if you don't get hit by a stick, you won't feel the pain. Those guys used to keep insisting on abolishing the bride price, abolishing the bride price, saying it was a feudal outdated custom. But why are they sympathizing with women seeking a son-in-law, thinking they can't survive?]
This group of people must have put themselves in the situation's shoes before they broke down.
To be honest, marriage is a matter between two families. It is two big families supporting a new family to start. Whether it is a betrothal gift or a dowry, they are the key to supporting the start of a small family.
Otherwise, how can the young couple, who have just entered society and have nothing, live?
Relying on parents?
Uncle: "Who would want to be with you with your conditions? You bet you won't find one as long as you are here!"
Song Li smiled and pointed at the people nearby who were requesting pre-marital checkups and paternity tests for childbirth, and asked, "Uncle, do you think we can find this?"
The old man didn't even look at it: "You won't find it anyway!"
After he finished speaking, he turned to others and said, "We don't even have living expenses, and we still have to do laundry, cook, boil water, and buy groceries. Isn't this just hiring a male nanny?"
Someone chimed in: "Male nannies make more than that."
Lin Yu was amused and couldn't help but say, "That young lady is beautiful and comes from a good family. She offered quite a good deal and even said that anyone who can accept it can come. Why are you reacting so strongly?"
Hearing this, the old man glanced at her with a sharp look, "What do you know, little girl?"
Lin Yu curled his lips: "Then tell me, uncle, how much do you give your wife a month?"
