Chapter 458 Listen to Men's Thoughts
Li Zheming strode over and gently stroked his grandfather Li Xun's back.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'll take care of this. You and grandma's house can't be sold. This is where you're used to living, and you're going to spend your remaining years here."
"It's not that we don't have a house. The two-bedroom apartment my parents bought for me is very close to Wu Jing's school. She was not satisfied because the house had a loan and her name couldn't be added to it."
"Grandpa, Wu Jing's conditions have been constantly increasing. I think I have to think carefully about whether this marriage is worth it."
Wen Xin and Zhang Hui looked at each other, and Wen Xin saw relief after shock in Zhang Hui's eyes.
Ever since Li Zheming's marriage was put on the agenda, Wen Xin learned a lot of the story from Zhang Hui.
In fact, when they first started dating, Wu Jing left a good impression on the Li family.
She has a pretty appearance, a lively personality, and is polite in dealing with people.
The Li family has always been democratic, which Li Zheming liked, and the whole family accepted it as they thought it was nothing unusual.
But I didn't expect that when it came to discussing marriage, we would start to stumble.
The originally lively and innocent girl, after working for a few years and seeing the world, began to make more demands.
Not only can her name not be added to that two-bedroom apartment, it is also too small, making it very inconvenient for her parents to live there in the future.
Besides, living in a house that doesn’t have my daughter’s name on it makes me feel insecure and without a sense of belonging.
When Wen Xin heard this reason, he almost laughed.
The location of that house is very expensive, and a two-bedroom apartment is too small. I should let my daughter find a rich second-generation man.
"In fact, their family originally thought that their daughter would find a rich second-generation man. After all, your cousin's annual salary was indeed not low. But then something went wrong, and they probably felt they were cheated."
Zhang Hui is a very smart person and she sees through her in-laws.
The in-laws are both ordinary employees in the county. They don’t have much ability, but they have a lot of ideas.
After having a daughter who was admitted to Beijing, I thought I could achieve class transition with the help of my daughter.
"I told Zheming at the time that with our current financial situation, we were lucky to be able to keep this house and have some savings. It would be impossible to think of anything more."
"But Zheming is sad. This kid is very sentimental. He always feels that Wu Jing has been with him for so many years and did not give up when his father was in trouble. He has to be worthy of her."
Zhang Hui felt sorry for Li Zheming, but she was clear-headed and watched calmly without doing anything rash.
In fact, Wen Xin knew that even if Li Haotian went to prison, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and Li Zheming's conditions were still good.
I graduated from the Chinese Department of CUHK and work in a government department. My family currently lives in a large four-bedroom apartment and has a large two-bedroom apartment with a not-so-large loan as our wedding house.
The details of the family’s savings are unknown.
But given their strength back then, and the fact that Zhang Hui worked in finance and was very good at financial management and financial risk isolation, the situation was estimated to be not bad.
Many of the financial risk isolation plans that Wen Xin came up with for Chai Yuxuan were proposed by Zhang Hui.
My grandparents live in a large three-bedroom apartment, have a high pension, and also have a courtyard house left by my great-grandmother.
Li Haoyun, who was abroad, had already clearly stated that she did not want these assets. She felt that she was not qualified to share the family property because she could not fulfill her filial duties in front of her parents.
Taking all these conditions into consideration, it is at least average in Beijing.
The only flaw is the dad who's in jail.
This is also the reason why the Li family cannot stand up straight.
But this father is serving a seven-year sentence and will be released in three years.
No one can predict what will happen next. When a tiger is in a low position, it is not necessarily bullied by a dog.
......
Everyone tried their best and finally calmed the two old people down.
Zhang Hui stayed to continue accompanying the old man, while Li Zheming accompanied Wen Xin as she left.
"Aunt, are you free? I want to have a good chat with you."
Wen Xin looked at Li Zheming, who seemed a little depressed after going out, and opened the car door.
"Let's go. It's almost dinner time. I'll take you to a quiet place."
The car weaved in and out of traffic.
"Aunt, I had a quick meeting with my uncle last time and we didn't say much. But I think my uncle is really amazing and speaks very thoughtfully."
Wen Xin raised the corner of his mouth: "Well, he is really amazing, I admire him very much."
Li Zheming laughed.
"Aunt, you are so successful, and you still admire your uncle, which shows how great he is. When I have the chance, I must have a meal with you two alone and learn from you."
Wen Xin glanced at him and said, "No need for next time. I'll give him a call and see if he's free after his shift and comes over to join us."
Tan Mu is on duty today and should be able to get off work on time.
The traffic light was red, so Wen Xin called Tan Mu.
"Okay, he'll be there soon after get off work, so we should be there about the same time."
......
Notes in the Clouds.
Wen Xin looked at Li Zheming's starry eyes as he looked at Tan Mu and couldn't help laughing.
Although he is already 27 or 28 years old, this nephew still behaves like a child.
He was a bit like Li Haotian back then, cheerful and sunny, with the innocence and carefreeness that only come from a well-off family.
But ever since Li Haotian's accident, Li Zheming has become noticeably less talkative and looks older.
The smile on his face today seemed to make Wen Xin see the sunny boy when he first entered college.
Li Zheming's expression became solemn.
"Uncle, I want to ask you a question. Please answer me truthfully. Don't think I'm childish."
"If you have a girlfriend, you have been very happy together for several years. Now you start to have all kinds of disagreements and conflicts, and it is difficult to reconcile."
"But we've already started talking about marriage, and backing off seems like a waste of all the effort we've put in over the years. But moving forward makes me scared and unhappy."
"If it were you, what would you choose?"
Li Zheming looked at Tan Mu's inquiring expression and chuckled:
"Yes, that's my story. Uncle, put yourself in the shoes of the person who told you what you would do if it were you."
Wen Xin interrupted curiously: "Zheming, why didn't you ask me? You didn't ask me during the long journey."
"Aunt, you are a woman, so you may think about things differently from me. I want to hear a man's thoughts. Especially a wise man like my uncle."
After saying this, he looked at Tan Mu with longing eyes.
Tan Mu looked over calmly:
"If it were me, I would ask myself first. If I continue to go on, will there be more pain or more happiness?"
"If the pain is greater and it is basically difficult to reconcile, then the relationship is not healthy and one must be cautious."
Tan Mu didn't say break up, but how could Li Zheming not understand.
"But there were four wonderful years ahead. And the girl has been with me till now for more than five years."
"Isn't it a shame to break up at this time? After all, I have given my best youth to you."
Wen Xin glanced at Li Zheming sensitively.
Four wonderful years...
That is to say, the next year or so was not a good one.
