Chapter 694 How big is the gap?
Aunt Li took the big apple and showed it to Cai Gen carefully.
"My son also gave it to me. They were all eliminated by him. It is said that there are thousands of them.
The fonts are too small, which makes it inconvenient for me to read. I usually make phone calls or watch videos on my computer clearly. ”
Well, it's quite retro, but also, Aunt Li is about the same age as my mother, over sixty, and her eyesight is very serious, and it is difficult to look at the mobile phone.
"Aunt Li, aren't the two donkeys doing well over there? Why don't you and my uncle go over there? How nice would it be to see your grandson every day?"
Aunt Li was a little reluctant to listen, her expression was not very good,
"What's the difference between two donkeys and two donkeys? When you were young, you just barked and that's it. Now we all call him Mr. Ma.
When I gave birth to my child, I went to take care of him for a while, but then I was really not used to life in a big city, so I came back. ”
Big city?
Cai Gen has been in that city for ten years, and he is really not used to it. His happiness level is very poor, but money is easier to earn and there are more opportunities.
"What are you not used to? How is it different to get a pension salary?"
"My relatives and friends are all here. Erlu and his wife are busy at work. As soon as the child was sent to kindergarten, my eyes darkened and there was no one to talk to.
The climate is not good either, it is full of smog, and life is not as comfortable as our home.
The four seasons are distinct, the summer is not hot, the house is not cold in winter, and you live a long life. ”
It was barely fair. Cai Gen tried to use empathy to compare whether he would follow Cai Tuantuan to other cities in the future. He was unwilling to go. That was his life, and it was not good to mess with him blindly.
"Yes, big cities have high work pressure and fast pace of life, so they are not suitable for retirement."
The computer anti-virus was finished. There were indeed viruses, but not many, maybe seven or eight digits. Cai Gen didn't even count them. I restarted the computer and logged in to the software. It was successful.
I tried sending videos to Erlu twice, but was hung up on both times. I quickly replied,
"We're in a meeting, let's talk at noon."
"Aunt Li, Erlu is in a meeting. I'm going to fix it now. At noon, you can video chat with him again and I'm leaving."
Aunt Li pulled Cai Gen and held on tightly.
"Cai Gen, don't leave. The video was successful at noon. You can leave again. Otherwise, you have to come back twice.
Erlu is busy with work. You have nothing to do when you go back. Just wait here. ”
Wow, he is busy at work and so am I. The store is always busy.
But when I felt the strength of the old lady's hand, it didn't mean that I was helpless to a certain extent. This would not be the case.
Cai Gen sat down again and waited for a while.
"What's Erlu doing now? It's almost the Chinese New Year, why are you still so busy?"
Aunt Li went to the kitchen to make two cups of tea before coming back and sitting on the sofa.
She turned on the royal mother-in-law mode, selling herself and boasting.
Just as he put down the tea cup, the ground suddenly began to shake. It was short-lived but very strong.
"Why is there another mine earthquake? Didn't all production in the pit stop?"
Cai Gen didn't know how to respond to these words. If he felt strong, he would be shaken, but the house wouldn't fall down.
Aunt Li looked in the direction of the pit with dissatisfaction. It had been many years since the mine had been shaken. She was really not used to it being cold.
After wiping away the spilled tea, Aunt Li continued her old lady mode, very persistently.
"Erlu is really promising. When you left after taking the college entrance examination, he failed the college entrance examination one after another. He thought he had nothing to pursue.
It’s only been a few years, but the gap is already visible. ”
gap?
Who is different from whom?
Cai Gen had to think more.
When you praise your son, why do you have to use me as a reference?
Cai Gen thought about the gap. How big was it?
"When I came back, wasn't he running a business selling computers? When I was purchasing for my unit, I used to look for him, but now he quits?"
After Aunt Li's mode was turned on, she automatically ignored Cai Gen's words and entered her own little world.
"Er Donkey, he's really awesome now. He's the CEO of a listed company. I can't figure out the specific industry. It's all high-tech. He always goes abroad for inspections or something.
One month's salary is more than what an average small restaurant earns in a year.
By the way, the year before last, I bought a house for more than 2 million, which can be considered as taking root there. ”
Why do you always bring up small restaurants? Interesting?
City is different from city, industry is different from industry, there is no comparison.
I think back when Cai Gen was admitted to a big city to study, Erlu also wanted to go, but failed in the first year, and failed again in the second year, and finally spent money to study in a private university before working hard in the same city as Cai Gen.
It may be due to the continuous setbacks, but Erlu is indeed hardworking and has suffered a lot.
Looking at it now, I have bought a house in that big city and have children, so I can be regarded as a model of positive publicity.
The out-of-school boy worked hard to build a colorful life in a big city through his own efforts.
Cai Gen really doesn't have anything to say. The fact is that he left and others took root, which he really admires.
Zhen Shuiyin was listening beside her. She really felt that the old lady's son was very good, so she should follow suit and praise him.
"Aunt Li, a big house with two million yuan is so amazing. How much does it cost to decorate it? How many square meters is it?"
Cai Gen glared at Zhen Shuiyin, did you do this on purpose?
Zhen Shuiyin's expression is very innocent and she is chatting normally. What's wrong?
Aunt Li actually didn't want to answer, but she was asked, so it wouldn't be a good idea not to say anything.
"The decoration is very expensive, costing more than 200,000 yuan. Fortunately, it is a small apartment, 46 square meters, there are no public stalls, and the area is very practical."
According to the memory in Cai Gen's mind, the total price is two million, more than 40 square meters, about 50,000 per square meter. It should not occupy the school district, and it is outside the Fifth Ring Road.
Besides, the total is only more than 40 square meters, so why share it among the public?
If the public stall is really over, how can people still live in it?
This may be the fundamental reason why Aunt Li is not used to big cities.
At this time, this home is more than 100 square meters, and an old couple lives there.
My son's home is more than 40 square meters, and it is a bit compact for three people and one parent.
Of course, Cai Gen was not stupid enough to say this.
There are eight plays in the family, and the plays are all different. Who doesn't have something to worry about?
Zhen Shuiyin was also surprised when she heard that it was more than forty square meters, but this silly girl originally wanted to follow the commercial touts. She didn't cooperate well just now and always wanted to make up for it.
"Oh, that is a compact small apartment, which is very popular now.
As long as it's close to your work, there are traffic jams in big cities now, making driving inconvenient. ”
When the car was mentioned, Aunt Li's eyes lit up again.
"Erlu has a car. He bought it for more than 300,000 yuan, but he can't drive it at home because of the traffic jam. He takes the subway to and from get off work every day. It's a green trip."
Well, I need to take the subway, and it’s probably not very close to my work. Otherwise, sharing a bicycle would be good, right?
Cai Gen analyzed it along the lines of thought and found it uninteresting.
When I lived in a basement, I saw with my own eyes that in big cities, it is normal and not unusual for people with a monthly salary of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan to take public transportation and rent a basement.
Zhen Shuiyin still wanted to speak, but Cai Gen stopped her. You are such an old lady, can't you say something to make others happy?
Originally, I didn't feel anything bad, but when you told me, I felt something.
You can't treat the elderly like this.
