Guo Dong was stuck for a moment.
Just...why is there such a big gap between mothers
Like her mother, when she was in college, she kept telling her that this was a stable major with a guaranteed job.
When you graduate and go to work in a hospital, which requires money to run, people say that girls who study this will not be able to take care of the family in the future.
Guo Dong didn't care. It wasn't worth spending so much just to get a permanent job at a small town hospital.
She sold a prescription left by her grandfather (as society developed, prescriptions were worthless, so she sold it for 30,000 yuan). With the 30,000 yuan, she got a license and opened a clinic in a village in the university city, specializing in treating people's health.
After a while, word of mouth gradually spread and I made some money.
At this time, her mother became anxious.
In short, if you don’t get married after graduation, you’re like unsaleable goods in a warehouse, and you have to shout “sale” to everyone you meet.
This was a mess, Guo Dong was too lazy to talk about it anymore. At this moment, the look in Wu Lan's eyes was actually a little touching:
"Auntie, do you really think so?"
To be honest, Wulan didn't think so before.
As for girls, they can go to college to learn a skill, then when they reach a certain age, get married, start their own family, and have two children. How perfect is that
But now...
This idea does exist, but it is quite different from the original one.
Learn a skill - when you reach a certain age - then you must make more money!
Just look at your new house and you will understand that making money is the most important thing.
Once you have more money, most of your worries disappear. You don't even have to worry about the dowry when you get married - many couples in their village who got married in the early years broke up because they couldn't agree on the gift and dowry.
Moreover, when girls have their own abilities, they will choose their partners from the same social class, and they will not suffer from poverty when they have children in the future...
Take Qiao Qiao for example, he has made rapid progress since he had a teacher!
If they had the money to hire a teacher when Qiao Qiao was young, and if they had the energy to hire someone to teach him a craft…
Why let the child waste so many years
Wulan never said these words. She just thought about her current life late at night, and gradually gained insights into life from the bitterness.
Now that he wanted to persuade Guo Dong to stay in the village, he naturally used all his tricks.
"Of course, why would I lie to you? You see, I never push my children."
Oh, although I'm not urging you, Tan Tan is already 24 or 25 years old this year. Following two bachelor cousins, when can he go out and meet other people
Wulan took this matter to heart.
At the same time, he was mumbling something from his heart:
"Doctor Guo, you are young and capable, so don't let marriage hold you back."
She said it sincerely: "If nothing else, you can get married at any time, but building a career is different."
"Just say you want to start a business and invest some money. You can do whatever you want before you get married. You don't have to worry about losing money."
"But if you get married, it's okay for men, but what about women? You have to think about everything, starting with money."
This is the way the world is, at least, this is the case with most of the families that Ulan sees.
There are good ones too, but she rarely sees them in the village.
"If you make money, it's fine. But if you lose money, what do you think? Some families are open-minded, but many families will definitely complain."
"If the young couple quarrels and brings this up again, even if we have great abilities, we will be restricted in what we do next time."
Isn't that the truth!
!
Guo Dong's eyes were almost filled with tears for a moment, and he was just one step away from becoming sworn brothers with the simple rural aunt in front of him.
Just think about it, she understands this principle right away, so why can't her mother understand it
"Auntie! You are so right!"
She finally confided: "To be honest, Auntie, I started my own business, and it was doing OK, and I could make a living."
"My mother said she felt lonely at home, and that the village was developing very well and I could come back to live there. She cooked for me and I continued to treat her illness."
Guo Dong was not very willing at first.
But her mother either has a headache today or sprains her ankle tomorrow... In short, she feels uncomfortable all over.
Then I thought that I should do my best to be filial. I have to find a place to settle down anyway, so I might as well go back to my hometown.
After all, aren’t we all promoting mountains, rivers, and countryside, and saying that our hometown is good
After returning home, the mother and daughter were fine at first. Her mother no longer had headaches and sprained ankles, but she would occasionally sigh that the house was old and couldn't be moved. She also said that there were cracks in the wall and it was dangerous...
Guo Dong thought about it and discussed with her mother: renovate the house, but set aside half of the yard to build a clinic for her.
At first, her mother agreed readily. The renovation of the house consumed all of Guo Dong's savings. Fortunately, her clients also came from afar to see her for treatment and medicine.
After all, it is a difficult secret to tell, and her medicine is indeed effective and nourishing to the body. It is also not expensive, so it is just right!
But Guo Dong forgot that rumors in the village spread faster than light.
From time to time, fellow villagers would come to take his pulse and ask for medical advice. As long as they didn't want to take medicine, Guo Dong never charged a penny for the consultation.
But those uncles and aunts whispered and soon spread the news of the male patients coming and going in increasingly bizarre ways...
It was also from that time that her mother's eyes became more and more strange.
Whenever a patient came to visit, she would act like a door god and would stay in the house and keep a close eye on the person.
When Guo Dong wanted to talk to someone about her private medical condition, her mother would bang on the door...
How can I continue working like this
Guo Dong had no choice but to tell them that she was helping the male patients to regulate their bodies and prescribing some aphrodisiac.
Good job!
After saying this, she seemed shameless in her mother's eyes!
As a result, the frequency of urging marriage is getting higher and higher. The blind date candidates chosen are getting more and more outrageous...
For example, the person who gambled this time just loved playing cards, playing from morning till midnight... but he didn't lose everything!
Besides, men become more sensible after getting married.
She didn't agree at all at first and even made up a partner.
But in order to confirm, her mother secretly took her notebook out and went to the town to let people see the photo album and chat records.
Just to see if she has a partner!
Guo Dong is going crazy!
Unfortunately, her medical records were locked and her contacts were not synchronized. The computer idiot in the town couldn't figure it out...
But it's scary enough!
She slammed her notebook before leaving. On the one hand, she really didn't want to leak any information, and on the other hand, she wanted to vent her anger.
He had been holding it in for too long, and even though he believed in keeping his dirty laundry secrets to himself, he couldn't help but speak out his true feelings. Wu Lan was shocked when she heard it!
After a long while, she asked cautiously:
"Um... Doctor Guo, do you watch TV? I mean... those shows on TV like The True and False Young Master... The Cat Substituted for the Prince..."
Guo Dong: …
For some reason, her anger suddenly got stuck again.
