Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

Why is it that in later generations, material supplies are becoming more and more abundant, but people’s sense of happiness is becoming lower and lower?

Apart from personal desires.

In fact, there are also reasons why our primary and secondary needs in life have undergone essential changes due to the influence of social trends.

At this age, He Yuzhu also has desires, and He Yuzhu's biggest dream is to buy a motorcycle.

If he were still a young man and as wealthy as he is now, he would have bought it long ago.

But he is already middle-aged.

I can afford it, but it doesn't look good when I ride it.

Most of the purchasing power of modern people is still concentrated on things that are useful to their families.

Buy a bicycle that can carry things and save time on the road.

Buy a sewing machine so you can mend clothes for your family.

Just buy a flashlight, and you can feel safer when you go out at night.

Because the consumption habits these days are still mainly practical.

Therefore, ordinary families live a very planned life and feel more satisfied.

The couple saved money for a year, and at the end of the year, they tried to get a bicycle ticket.

After buying it, the couple uses the new car to go out on weekdays, and to return to the wife’s home during the Chinese New Year.

The envious eyes of others can make them feel extremely accomplished.

But it was different in later generations. Even if one picked up a handful of celery on the road, one had to consider the paradox of whether one had enough money to marry a wife.

To pick a bunch of celery, you need a kitchen; if you have a kitchen, you must have a house; if you have a house, you must also have a car; if you have a car, you can buy a garage... Once you have everything, it is normal to marry a wife...

In fact, much of the happiness of later generations is consumed in this endless cycle of consumption trap.

Even the old men and women would buy a refrigerator to store the salted fish and meat that they only eat a few times a year.

Then a year's electricity bill is wasted, and the food is thrown away without anyone eating it.

Continue like this into next year.

Nowadays, we work hard and earn money for consumption, but that is to make life better for ourselves and our families.

And what about future generations?

No one can tell clearly.

"You really don't want to go to Hong Kong Island?" After a fight with He Yuzhu, Lou Xiao'e asked He Yuzhu this question again.

During the fight, it seemed that He Yuzhu was the one who suffered, but the one whose clothes were in disarray was Lou Xiaoe. The fat woman even had red and swollen lips.

He Yuzhu's hand reached into her sweater without her knowing when. Perhaps the room was not heated enough, and He Yuzhu's hands were really cold.

He Yuzhu paused after hearing this, thought about it again and again, then took his hand back, scratched his head, and said seriously: "It's really not the right time now. To be honest, I sometimes regret it now.

When I was young, I should have gone out and explored the world.

There have been many twists and turns along the way.

Not many things were accomplished.

Now I can say that I have achieved some success. At least, someone is willing to listen to what I say! (He Yuzhu pointed upwards)
Some people also agree with what I think.

I am middle-aged now, and what I want to pursue is different from before.

If I had gone to Hong Kong Island with you guys back then, I might have fallen a long time ago.

If he makes some money and marries seven or eight concubines, he might even have a big fight with you because of his fickleness towards the old and his love for the new.

How could we miss each other as much as we do now?
Besides, I can’t go there now, whether for my own ideals or for your career.

You have to know that you have reached your current position in Hong Kong Island.

In addition to the efforts of you and Aunt Tan, it also has something to do with your position.

Small businesses can go with the flow.

But when the business reaches a certain scale, family and country become one.

Think about your father. Before liberation, no matter how big his business was, he was still a tree without roots.

When the wind blows, the trees fall and the monkeys scatter.

Your current relationship with Sijiucheng is the guardian of your business.

On major issues, you must stand with Sijiucheng. Otherwise, your past achievements will be untenable.

Apart from anything else, if I went to Hong Kong Island now in a private capacity.

Will the "Friendship" brand you applied for feel hot when you hold it in your hand?
Are there many evil wolves lurking in the dark, trying to take your life when you are sick?

Besides, what can I do if I go?

When it comes to responding to business situations, I'm not even as good as a professional manager.

Besides, I heard that I am quite mysterious in the Hong Kong media.

Let’s keep this secret!

It can also make those who covet you more cautious. "

“But my Xinghua and Yuanyuan have not met their father yet, and Yuanyuan is still young.

But Xinghua already knew about the human affairs. Sometimes he asked me where his father was, and I didn’t know how to answer him. "When Lou Xiao'e talked about this, she also looked aggrieved, and her eyes became moist.

"Ugh……

Just hold on a little longer!

In four or five years at most, we will be able to travel freely.

When the time comes, bring the two children back and show them to me.

The backyard that your aunt gave me is still there.

When the time comes, it will be the home I give to my children.”

He Yuzhu did not say anything sentimental or regretful.

Things have been done, there's no point in regretting it.

He just tries to be as fair as possible to the children within his ability.

To be honest, if Lou Xiao'e brought the two children back now, the higher-ups would not make things difficult for them.

Even preferential treatment will be given.

But on this point, Tan Yali is still quite stubborn.

In her heart, she is not afraid of a thousand things, but afraid of the one that happens.

So if it wasn't absolutely safe, Tan Yali would definitely not agree to the two children coming back to find their father.

"Hmm... um..." This time He Yuzhu was sure that it was really Lou Xiaoe who made the first move.

He Yuzhu didn't go home at all.

Instead, during dinner, he called back and said he was in a meeting in Laolu.

This also shows that as long as you are a man, there is no such thing as a perfect husband.

As long as a man has excellent personal conditions, even if he does not take the initiative, there will still be women who will fall in love with him and be willing to throw themselves into his arms.

What's more important is that the other person doesn't expect anything from him even though he's throwing himself into her arms.

Just looking for a night of sex.

Things in the world are just so weird.

Liu Ting didn't suspect anything.

Now that He Yuzhu's position is becoming more and more important, things like He Yuzhu suddenly receiving a phone call and having a meeting for several days have become very common in the He family.

The He family's children have now developed a habit.
Whenever there was a meeting, the He family's children would stare at the news on TV for several days.

Just to find out if He Yuzhu appeared on TV.

Let alone Liu Ting and the children.

It was Lou Xiao'e, who was lying in He Yuzhu's arms watching the news from Beijing when she saw He Yuzhu flash by on the TV screen.

I was also quite interested, so I got out of bed naked and called Lao Lu.

She asked him to help her organize all the news newspapers in which He Yuzhu appeared, and she would take them back to show her two children.

In the end, it was He Yuzhu who "persuaded" Lou Xiao'e.
