Ning Yuan chuckled: "We are very familiar with each other, how can we make excessive demands? I just hope you can find me two trustworthy and skilled people to help me control the situation when I am selling goods!"
Rong Zhaonan was stunned for a moment and said thoughtfully: "Do you want a bodyguard?"
He looked the petite girl up and down: "Aren't you going to take the college entrance examination, and are you going to be involved in being a self-employed person selling antiques? How can you get into college like this?"
He thought she would ask for something like being transferred back to the provincial capital, finding a good formal job, or finding a good school, or even helping her with some things at home.
He would try to help her.
Unexpectedly, she opened her mouth to ask for a bodyguard. It seemed that she planned to take this antique dealer as a long-term job.
Ning Yuan twitched her lips: "I won't delay starting a small business when I go to college. This is not a shameful thing."
In 1979, that is, this year, the country will issue a business license allowing self-employed individuals to register for business. In 1980, the first batch of self-employed individuals will appear in Wenzhou.
But that's official. In fact, private stalls have blossomed all over the country in the past two years, and more and more stalls are being set up secretly.
Her plan is to start a small business while picking up stalls and earn a small fortune of her own after going to college.
so……
"I'm just short of money. I have to support myself." Ning Yuan shrugged.
Rong Zhaonan answered lightly: "I'll support you, just study hard."
Ning Yuan was stunned: "..."
He wants to raise her?
For a moment, it was like a strange electric current passed through her ears, causing indescribable emotions to well up in her heart——
It's warm and soft, like drinking sweet hot milk tea in winter.
"What, you don't believe it?" Rong Zhaonan looked at her lightly.
She stared at him blankly, and when she met his deep eyes, she suddenly closed her eyes in embarrassment: "Forget it, don't say this."
Someone had said this to her in her previous life, and even her inexperienced self had been moved by it.
The results of it? The person who said this has a confidante who is highly educated, works in a news agency, and earns a high salary.
Ning Yuan's heated heart calmed down.
She mocked: "Can you support me for the rest of your life? You will always go back to the capital. Besides, I don't need you to support me."
Seeing that Ning Yuan's expression was not right, Rong Zhaonan frowned slightly and said, "Now that you are my nominal partner, I should be paid to support your studies."
Ning Yuan sat back on her stool, but whispered: "Even if we are a real couple, you should rarely say such things, because in the end it will become -"
She paused and did not continue.
Rong Zhaonan took over: "What did it become?"
Why did this long-haired rabbit suddenly look tired and cold? What did he say wrong?
Ning Yuan held the tea cup and said slowly: "This sentence will almost always turn into - you have food to eat, and you don't have to rely on me to support you!"
Even if I sincerely say I will support you at the beginning, if a woman really quits her job and has children and goes home, over time she will become a loser in the eyes of others.
Even if a man doesn't say it with his mouth, he will think so subconsciously.
Not to mention the housewives who have been taking care of their children. With their palms upward, they seem to be really inferior to others, even though it is obviously more tiring to take care of children than to go to work.
Will also become - isn't it just to take care of a child?
Rong Zhaonan looked at her and frowned: "Not all men are like this. Many aunts in our compound do not work, and their husbands pay their wages. They take care of the home front, take care of their children and parents-in-law, and live in harmony. .”
Ning Yuan smiled, held her chin and asked, "Do the aunts in your compound have nannies to help take care of their children?"
Rong Zhaonan looked at her thoughtfully: "Yes."
Indeed, there are not only nannies, but also security guards, life secretaries, and drivers. Even because there are many fruits and trees in the yard, the logistics unit even sends gardeners over regularly.
Ning Yuan lowered her eyes and said calmly: "Someone will take care of the children and do the housework. Of course, there will be less conflicts between husband and wife."
Rong Zhaonan paused, and it seemed right.
Ning Yuan: "I know that in capitalist countries there is a type of woman who is married to a rich man, called a full-time housewife. It seems that she doesn't have to do anything but buy and buy, and she has a car to pick her up when she goes out."
She sighed softly: "But 99% of women are ordinary people. They don't have such conditions. Even those rich foreign wives have no choice but to endure when their husbands are having sex with other women."
Rong Zhaonan stared at her thoughtfully: "You seem to know a lot."
She mentioned "foreign countries" in such a familiar tone, but as a small citizen, where could she get in touch with these bourgeois things at this time?
Ning Yuan didn't pay attention to the temptation in Rong Zhaonan's tone, and just continued: "The husband's property is not theirs. How much they can get after divorce depends on the man's conscience."
Not to mention that the industry does not belong to them. Later generations of unscrupulous men will directly engage in fake business transactions.
It is also common to transfer property, short the company, or even create debts within the marriage so that the wife leaves the house with debts.
When interests are at hand, both father and son have opposing goals, let alone a couple who are not related by blood.
Rong Zhaonan frowned slightly: "You are making a generalization. There is still love between husband and wife in life. A wife who takes care of the children of the family is respected by her lover."
Ning Yuan looked at him for a long time, then suddenly couldn't help but shook her head and picked up the tea with a smile: "Tsk..."
Rong Zhaonan was a little unhappy: "Why are you laughing!"
He didn't like the way she looked, as if she was a woman who had seen through the world and was listening to the childish jokes told by young people of the younger generation.
Seeing that he was unhappy, Ning Yuan held her chin and asked: "Captain Rong, let's not talk about the conflicts between husbands and wives and the indiscriminate relations between men and women. How can you know what is going on under the sheets? What we can see is what others think. Let us see it!”
She twitched her lips: "Besides, why would a person spend his whole life betting on the probability that someone will be good to him? When he is good, he has everything, and when he is bad, he has nothing."
Rong Zhaonan looked at her with dark eyes: "You may be right, but there are always people who are not like that and who sincerely want to be good to someone."
At this moment, Ning Yuan was like a frustrated passer-by who watched the joys and sorrows of the world with cold eyes.
Facing his scrutinizing gaze, Ning Yuan said unequivocally: "I believe that there are always lucky people who get perfect love, but betting your youth on others being kind to you is also gambling. As long as it is gambling, you will - nine times out of ten Losing, I don’t think I’m that lucky.”
She lazily sat in her chair: "But if I want to be good to myself, that's a sure thing."
Two lifetimes of experience told her that it is not easy for people to control their own lives, so don't try to control other people's lives.
Rong Zhaonan looked at her intently for a while, smiled, and asked casually: "Ning Yuan, where did you learn this? Did your mother teach you?"
If he remembered correctly, her parents were servants of the Ning family. Their educational level was very low. They knew at most two words. How could they still know about Confucianism?
Mr. Tang would never discuss the matter of being in bed or not with a girl.
Ning Yuan's hand holding the tea cup froze, and she cursed secretly that she was really hopeless - she had a stress reaction when she encountered the topic of 'emotions' because of what happened in her previous life!
With so many remarks that are not in line with the times, how can people not be suspicious? !
Although Rong Zhaonan has not yet grown into a powerful boss in the future, he is already very sharp now.
What if she is treated as a spy?
"I... Grandma Xia taught me these things. You forgot, she studied abroad and knows a lot!" Ning Yuan exhaled slowly and said calmly.
Grandma Xia is someone who doesn't play by the rules and very much encourages girls to be independent. It's not surprising that she said similar things.
Rong Zhaonan looked at Ning Yuan's guilty look and said calmly: "Yeah."
She was lying and he knew it.
He did not continue the topic and lowered his eyes to drink water: "What kind of bodyguard do you want and how long will it last?"
Ning Yuan thought for a while, then came up to him and made a sign of fifteen: "I won't embarrass you. The requirements are not high, just at Chen Chen's level. I can only ask them to help hold the battle on weekends and open for them... A salary of fifteen yuan a month.”
It's thirty yuan a month for two people, and they only need to work for four days. Thinking about it, it makes her feel sick - she only has about three hundred yuan in savings, but she can't spend any less!
Rong Zhaonan almost choked on his water, Ruifeng raised his eyes and laughed angrily.
He sneered, pinched her soft round face, and pulled her face to the left and right into a pie——
"Do you know what Chen Chen is? He is the first in the military competition. He is a bodyguard for others. Do you know what level of leaders he will serve as a bodyguard for?"
