The life of an adult is so messed up. I didn’t expect that friends would become a luxury.
When I said this, the atmosphere in the private room seemed to be suddenly suppressed by something. Sometimes, he is most afraid of the sudden silence. Zhao Yue picked up the wine bottle, filled the cup with wine, and then raised his head and drank it in one gulp.
I also picked up the wine glass and followed him. Wu Shuang said that he didn’t drink well, so he took a symbolic sip.
Over the years, I don’t know how many times we have had dinner together. In fact, every time we have dinner, we talk about the same things in the past. We used to have wine together, but now I get annoyed when I see wine.
When the three gentlemen didn't know what to talk about, Lin Feifei finally came in and said, "Sorry, I'm late."
Wu Shuang's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Lin Feifei, but when he saw her coming in and taking the initiative to sit next to me, the light in his eyes suddenly dimmed again.
Lin Feifei noticed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and said with a smile: "Why don't you eat? Are you waiting for me?"
Wu Shuang grinned and asked everyone to use their chopsticks, "Don't stand there in a daze, Zhao Yue, let's eat some meat!"
As soon as the hot pot started, the atmosphere finally became lively. Wu Shuang took the initiative to turn the topic to Zhao Yue, "Hey, Zhao Yue, when will you and Lu Jingjing have a baby?"
Zhao Yue raised his wine glass and smiled bitterly, "Why are you like my mother, chasing me and asking questions like this every day! Just wait until I finish paying off the loan for the house in my hometown."
Wu Shuang curled her lips and said disapprovingly: "Why don't we just raise a child? How can having multiple pairs of chopsticks be so stressful as you said?"
"What about the extra pairs of chopsticks?"
Zhao Yue curled his lips, took a sip of wine, and said dullly: "You think it's too easy, who will take care of it for me! Now that we want a child, we have to resign and go home to take care of it as soon as possible. My monthly salary is only With more than 10,000 yuan, it’s too much pressure for one person to support a family, and the elderly on both sides can’t help.”
At this time, the meat was ready. Lin Feifei put the meat into my bowl and said, "Indeed, one of my sisters used to be a flight attendant. After giving birth to the child, the elderly at home could not help, and there was not enough money to hire a nanny, so she just You have gone home to take care of your child. If you want a child, you must hire a confinement nanny so that you can take better care of your wife."
Zhao Yue nodded and said with emotion, "I have paid off the mortgage in my hometown in the past two years. I will be almost thirty-five by then, and I will probably be kicked out of the big factory, so I will go back to my hometown with the compensation. Life in my hometown is not so stressful.”
Wu Shuang curled his lips, "How can my hometown be as comfortable as a big city? You think so, Yu Bin?"
I didn't expect that the topic would suddenly be brought up to me. I thought about it for a moment and said with a smile:
"I think my hometown has the tranquility of my hometown, and a big city has the advantages of a big city. It mainly depends on your own heart! If you like a slow-paced life, go back to your hometown. If you want the prosperity of a big city, stay in a big city and find the right one. Your own is the best.”
Wu Shuang said with disdain: "If you ask me to develop well in a big city, there are many opportunities in a big city. Can you find a job with a monthly salary of 5,000 in your hometown? I think it will be difficult. It is better to be in a big city, with flowers blooming. You I've been floating here for so many years, isn't it just to escape from the small county town of my hometown? Going back means that you have failed for so many years."
I glanced at Zhao Yue and slowly shook my head: "I don't agree with this view. In fact, it doesn't matter if you fail, because failure is the main theme of life."
Lin Feifei smiled and continued following my words: "I think Yu Bin is right. If you like a slow-paced life, it's actually not bad to live back in your hometown."
Zhao Yue seemed to suddenly become enlightened. He picked up the wine glass and said to Lin Feifei and me: "Thank you. After listening to your words, I feel suddenly enlightened. I offer you this glass of wine. I'll drink it. You can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he raised his head and did it directly.
I followed suit.
Lin Feifei glanced at me and said with a smile: "I have to drive soon, so I'll replace the wine with juice."
Wu Shuang saw the three of us talking and laughing, which was a bit unpleasant. He pondered for a moment, looked at me and said with a smile:
"Yu Bin, you said it's so lively, what about you in the future? Are you going to go back to your hometown or continue to wander?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Feifei also looked at me, waiting for my answer.
I took a deep breath, filled another glass of wine, smiled, and said, "Maybe I don't have many pursuits. In fact, I think it would be nice to have a small courtyard in my hometown with a more refined decoration. I want to build one It’s a two-story house. In the summer, I go to the roof to drink and watch the stars. In the winter, when it snows, I build snowmen in the yard.”
Lin Feifei's eyes lit up and she said with envy: "This kind of life is so desirable. What I long for most is to have my own yard where I can grow flowers and vegetables."
Wu Shuang's face was a bit unhappy. He glanced at me and retorted: "You have to think clearly. We don't have such a high salary back home. If you don't have money, how can you support your quiet life?"
I smiled and said, "I can make money by writing novels! I just don't go to work, but it's not that I don't work."
The smile on Lin Feifei's face became even stronger, "From now on, you can cover up the small courtyard. Remember to ask me to grill skewers in summer. I don't even think I can grill skewers by myself in the community."
I immediately agreed, "Okay! In the spring we plant flowers and grass, in the summer we can string skewers under the stars, in the autumn we make a pot of tea and sit in the yard admiring the golden color outside, in the winter we drink tea, play cards and watch the snow. "
Lin Feifei's thoughts were already flying along with my description. Her snow-white cheeks seemed to be stained with a layer of glow, and her eyebrows were flying. "I'm so looking forward to it. I really hope I can live this kind of life sooner."
Wu Shuang's face became increasingly ugly. He rolled his eyes at me and smiled, "Your cake is too big! If you can go back to your hometown, do you think Feifei can do it? She was originally in a big city, so let her Will I accompany you to a small city?"
Lin Feifei nodded, "Why not? I think living in a small city is quite comfortable."
"you……"
I raised my glass to Wu Shuang and said with a smile: "Who knows what will happen in the future! You can't just look at the future based on the current situation! Come, dear friends, drink and drink."
Wu Shuang reluctantly raised his wine glass. The glasses clinked together. He noticed the bracelet Lin Feifei was wearing and said in a flattering manner: "Feifei, you have such good taste and discernment in this bracelet. Please help me choose one when you have time." ?”
Lin Feifei looked at me with a smile and said to him: "Yu Bin gave this to me. If you want something similar, you can ask him where he bought it."
Wu Shuang was stunned, looked at me, raised the corner of his mouth, and revealed a meaningful smile...
