Chapter 124 The Kato Family

The four of them also had lunch together.Throughout the whole process, they had almost no communication.Kato's father and Kato's mother didn't look down on Miyamoto Kentaro in their hearts, but they looked down upon him too much, which made them worried.

As parents, they naturally hope that their daughter can find a decent and excellent boyfriend, and even marry in a glorious manner.

However, Kentaro Miyamoto is too good.It was so good that their family didn't know how to face it next.

Especially in the future, the two of them don't know how to face other members of the Miyamoto family.Among them are his parents, his sister and so on.

Neither Kato's father nor Kato's mother had ever truly entered the upper class circles.Even if they occasionally appear in some high-society occasions, they are still marginalized characters.

They are just like the protagonist couple in Maupassant's novel "The Necklace".However, the financial strength of the Kato family is much better than that of the protagonist's family in the novel.

Kato's father is not a small civil servant in the Education Bureau, but the director of the human resources department of a large company.The reason why the Kato family's economic strength has greatly increased is not because Kato's father works for a large company, but entirely due to the re-development of Futako Tamagawa.

Who made the ancestors of the Kato family come to Tokyo early and later buy a piece of land there?Although Futakotamagawa was farmland in the past and our ancestors were farmers, it did not delay its influence on future generations.

Even up to Kato Ayaka's grandfather's generation, it was still a social identity of farmers.Everyone in the Kato family makes a living by farming.

It was only in Kato's father's generation that they realized how to change their destiny through reading, and finally got rid of their social identity as farmers, entered a large-scale enterprise, and became a white-collar worker in a metropolitan city.

If the Kato family had not caught up with the good opportunity of redevelopment of Futakotamagawa, they would have been an ordinary middle-class family in Tokyo at most.

It is simply impossible to own a one-family house with full property rights and no loan in a place such as Futakotamagawa where high-end residential areas are gathered.

The Kato family all understand that it is all thanks to their ancestors.Otherwise, their family would just take out a 30-year loan to buy a small apartment of several tens of square meters in a residential area where the middle class gathers, such as Nakameguro in Meguro District and Ebisu in Shibuya District. .

As for Kato's mother, she is very similar to the heroine Mathilde in the novel "The Necklace".Mathilde is a beautiful and charming woman, and so is Kato's mother.

Otherwise, there is a high probability that she would not be able to give birth to a cute daughter like Kato Ayaka.Because Mathilde had no dowry assets and no way to make a rich and status person know her, understand her, love her, and marry her, she could only make do with marrying Kato's father.

The same goes for Kato’s mother.When she was young, she had a lot of dissatisfaction and unwillingness with her marriage. She always felt that she had suffered a loss and should have married better.

Later, as I grew older and gained more life experience and knowledge, I felt that the ideas I had when I was young were too ridiculous.She was indeed beautiful when she was young.

However, it's not that there aren't people who are more beautiful than me, there are a lot of them.In addition, he has more academic qualifications and family background than her... and there are many more.

The first choice of a rich man is not those wealthy ladies, but a beautiful woman like himself. That is impossible.

Their thoughts are nothing more than that they either just want to have fun, or they just want to be lovers, not wives.It’s not like Kato’s mother didn’t know that if she hadn’t been young, beautiful and average-looking, she might not even be able to marry Kato’s father.

At most, she can only marry a common man.If you follow such a man, you will not enjoy any blessings, you will only suffer hardships.If you are unlucky, you may be subjected to various kinds of domestic violence.

At that time, Kato's father had graduated from a prestigious university and was working as a formal member of a large company. Although he was not very attractive to the daughters of wealthy families, he was definitely a good husband to the daughters of ordinary people. first choice.

As Kato's father was promoted in the company, and the re-development of Futoko Tamagawa made the family a lot of profits, Kato's mother finally became completely calm.

She never thought about letting her daughter Kato Ayaka make up for her regret of not marrying into a wealthy family when she was young.One thing she knows is that she looks down on poor people, just like rich people look down on themselves.

Even if Kato's father knew some people from the upper class, it was only at the level of acquaintance and he did not have deep friendship with anyone.

Although the couple did not know anything about the upper class, they both knew that the upper class would not accept them.

The appearance of Miyamoto Kentaro let them know what is the top social circle that transcends the upper class circle.The good friends around him are all sons of the top ten plutocrats.

What they are about to face is not a circle of high society, but a circle of top society, and they are even more at a loss.

This is not a good thing for the two of them.Marriage requires a well-matched couple, so that it can last for a long time.

Otherwise, when the passion between men and women passes, all that will be left is a mess and all kinds of conflicts in the future.Divorce was doomed from the beginning.

What's more, as they are already in the upper reaches of the middle class in Tokyo, their self-esteem does not allow them to be directly looked down upon or ignored by the husband's family.

The couple also did not think about using the connections of the Miyamoto family to improve their social class and class in order to become members of the upper class.

At the same time, Kato Ayaka had not completely digested the information she received this morning.She was originally worried that her parents would deliberately make things difficult for Miyamoto Kentaro or look down on him.

Even if I am not snobbish, I have long known that poverty itself is an original sin.What's more, living in an international metropolis like Tokyo, having no money would be like living in a living hell.

The common people take money very seriously, not because it is unreasonable, but because they have no choice at all.Things are unpredictable, and the development direction of the whole thing is completely opposite to what I thought.

Others are obsessed with catching a rich son-in-law, but they can't, but I have never thought about it that way, and that's why.This corresponds to the saying that if you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.
