Chapter 168 Do you feel inferior? [10,000 words]

The construction site in Pengcheng.

The middle-aged man who had just taken a shower with a bucket took out his mobile phone from his pocket. The screen was cracked with a few cracks and the white edges were easily visible. The mobile phone had been used for a long time.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and they had just gotten off work. Looking at the caller displayed on the screen, he put down the bucket in his hand and swiped to answer the call in confusion.

"Daughter, are you out of money? Dad will transfer some to you." The middle-aged man rubbed his sparse and gray hair, put the phone to his mouth and asked.

When he was on the phone, he deliberately walked a little further away and spoke in a lower voice. When his coworkers greeted him, he always pointed at the phone and waved.

Subconsciously, I still thought she was in school, and I was afraid that she would have no living expenses, so my first sentence was to ask her if she still had money.

It was difficult to transfer money via mobile phone, and he was worried. He always felt afraid that the money would be gone, so he would pick it up in cash and have it mailed. If the construction site was remote, he would call his home to have it mailed.

"Dad, I'm already working. I'm rich. Don't ask for money. I'm just like a debt collector." Baicai's voice came from the other side of the phone.

Every time he heard this, Baicai felt very sad. What he cared about most was whether Baicai still had money. What he often said was that it would be difficult to die without money when you are away from home.

When she came to Shanghai, she left most of the money at home and only took a small amount with her. Even so, she was called and told that she was a stupid girl.

Her parents were very good to her, and she knew it very well over the years.

"I had already forgotten about my job, but when I first started working, I couldn't make much money. The college students at our construction site told me that they only made several thousand yuan a month outside, which was not as good as ours at the construction site."

"Don't save money so much. Spend what you need and eat what you need. Don't wrong yourself. Dad still has seven or eight thousand a month. If you don't have any money, just tell him."

"The money dad has here is not just for you. It will be used as your dowry in the future."

Sitting on the piled steel bars, Baicai's father was dressed in white washed clothes with holes in them, but with a smile on his face, he said caring words to Baicai.

He doesn't care about his own condition, but he is very concerned about Baicai's living conditions. He is also a college student, and people come to the construction site to make money. How can Baicai be better off?

How much money can you have left over from rent, meals, transportation, phone bills, making some friends, having dinner together, etc. in a month?

He understood it very well because he specifically asked those young people.

When Baicai was studying in the past, he asked his classmates. Later, when Baicai started working, he asked today's young people. They are under great pressure.

"Dad, you don't have to work so hard. I can make money on my own. It's more than 10,000 yuan a month. In addition to expenses, I can save 7,000 to 8,000 yuan a month. Don't work so hard."

"From now on, just do something easy, do as much as you can, don't go to high places that you can't go to, and just rest for a few days if you can't do it. I hope you stay healthy."

While Baicai was on the phone, she wiped away tears while talking.

Her father may not be a successful person, a cultural figure, or a great person, but to Baicai, he is a hero.

The hero who supports the family.

It has been the same since before and has never changed.

"Haha, Silly Nier, it's not like dad can't do it anymore. In the future, when you get married and have a baby, my grandpa will have to buy him a toy and a lollipop!"

"Dad has been stubborn all his life. I can't ask you for money in the future. I have never considered this. Dad is not a scumbag."

"It's not too tiring. It's quite relaxed now. You, don't worry so much. It's nothing. I was tired before, but now I'm much more relaxed."

After wiping his face, part of which was still molting due to the welding, and part of which was dark, he spoke in a relaxed tone, not so tired.

Always, when a child knows someone cares about him, he always says: What does this mean? I was just tired before, it’s okay!

This sentence has been said for many years.

"You're driving me out so quickly? It's too early to get married!" Baicai replied.

He looked at the sky: "If you find someone suitable, just get along. It's not good to get married if it's too late. Get married early and you'll be young when the children are older. If you get married too late, you'll be old when the children are older."

When he talked about this topic, he felt a little sour, a little sad, and a little confused. Reluctance seemed to account for a large part.

After all, he still couldn't bear to let go of such a girl when she reached the age of marriage.

Time passed so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for Baicai to find a partner. No matter how late it was, her family would be urging her to do so.

"What if the boyfriend you are looking for is far away from your hometown?" Baicai asked.

After hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing.

How could her own child not understand? What she said was testing her own thoughts and attitudes.

"It's okay if it's nice to you. It doesn't matter how far you are. Of course it's better to be closer because it will be more convenient to go home in the future. But you can't say anything about fate. If you close your eyes, it doesn't matter if you're further away."

"You have to live your own life, but you must be careful. Marriage is a lifelong matter, not just a day or two. You must understand it clearly."

"You can be confused about anything, but not this matter, do you understand?"

After sorting out her thoughts, Baicai's father said several words to her. He was not afraid of anything else. He was just afraid that Baicai would be wronged in the future and he was too far away from home, so he would not be able to help her.

Marrying far away is definitely not safe.

But she likes it, thinks it's appropriate, and treats her well. If she can be happy in the future, it's fine, as long as she lives a good life in the future.

He never thought of interfering in Baicai's love or marriage. Baicai is not stupid and can make his own decisions.

"Dad, I'm dating someone." Baicai still confessed, although she was a little nervous.

Baicai's father took out the cigarette in his pocket and lit it. The result was similar to what he guessed. It was time to find a partner.

I just don’t know where the brat is!

Exhaling thick smoke, Baicai's father asked: "Let's just get along with each other. How long have we been together? How is he? Is he a good character? Do I feel sorry for you? Do I usually let you go?"

"What kind of job do you do? Can you make progress? Don't hire someone who is not good! You will suffer big losses in the future."

He asked a lot of questions, and Baicai didn't know where to answer them better.

After thinking about it, Baicai told him about Luo Bai's situation from beginning to end, and then there was silence.

After she finished speaking, Baicai's father was still digesting what she said.

Being a child from a wealthy family, he had something to say but didn't know how to say it out. Listening to his daughter happily talking about another boy, he felt a little complicated for a moment.

Children are anxious when they don't have a partner, but they still worry a lot after they have a partner.

"The gap is a bit big, but everything else is fine. Have his parents been in contact?" Baicai's father finally spoke.

As a father, even if there are many things that he is powerless to do and has no solution, he still has to find a way to give his child some support and give her a way to deal with it.

This is dad, even if he has no way, no ability, no conditions, he will do his duty and fulfill the responsibilities of a father.

"I called him, and what I heard on the phone is that his parents are very good people and have good personalities. But Luo Bai said he wanted to go to our house. I'll give you a call to talk about it."

"I don't care about him, I just think he is very nice and treats me very well."

After listening to Baicai's words, Baicai's father was silent again.

Being rich is a good thing, but being too rich is not a good thing. He is not worried about Baicai marrying into such a family, and is afraid that she will be wronged.

They are too rich, their status differences are too great, and everyone is not from the same world.

But Baicai's meaning was obvious. She liked this young man very much. Under such circumstances, he took it back if he was ready.

She believed what Baicai said and didn't care about others, but her parents may not necessarily think so. There is a certain reason for being a good match. Snakes have their own ways, rats have their own ways. If we are not in the same circle, we will definitely not get along.

This was an obvious result, and he didn't know if Baicai could cross this gap.

Even if it is possible, how much will it cost?

"Bring it back for the Chinese New Year. Dad will see how he is doing. If it's suitable, then consider other things, okay?" Baicai's father replied.

Baicai agreed.

She always had to say, always tell them the situation so that they would have some idea.

In fact, Baicai also knew what he was worried about, and she knew even better what he was thinking about, but she couldn't control who she would meet, who she would like, and who she would marry in this life.

What you can do is to look at the right person to avoid marriage failure, love failure, and relationship failure.

"Okay, then I'll talk to him and take him home at the end of the year." Baicai said.

"Send me the photo to look at."

After saying a few words, he hung up the phone and looked at the photo sent by Baicai for a long time. He was a somewhat impetuous young man, and he didn't know if he was a good match for Baicai.

Are children from rich families really compatible with cabbage? Is it just a temporary novelty? Will they be separated after a while?

After looking at the photos several times, he took his mobile phone and called his wife at home. He told her about the situation and asked her to call Baicai and tell her not to suffer any loss.

"Xiao Ni'er, I don't know how to tell my family." Baicai's mother still complained a little. She was not as open-minded as Baicai's father: "It would be better to find a place closer to me. If I find the magic city, can I control it?"

"I have to give her a good talk. You don't have to worry about it. I'll see if I can get her to find someone closer."

After Baicai's mother finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Carrying the bucket, we returned to the Datong Shop where a dozen people were. After get off work, everyone gathered in twos and threes to chat, talking about the news and talking about children.

Many people here are older middle-aged people, the older ones are in their fifties.

"Don't say it too directly. Let her take it back and see it later. Dad Baicai said."

You still have to chat face to face to see a person, and you can understand a lot of things clearly.

Sleeping on the Datong bunk, Baicai's father looked at the ceiling, not wanting to sleep at all. He just felt that he was worried.

"Old Bai, what are you thinking about? Did something happen?" a coworker who had a good relationship with him asked him.
