In this world, there is a kind of parents who are particularly greedy for money. In order to make their old age better, they will not hesitate to trick their daughters into finding rich husbands and their sons into marrying rich wives. In their eyes, it seems that they can't see the happiness of their children, only care about whether the money is in place.
Moreover, these parents often decide which child to get closer to according to their children's economic conditions. Once a child is in a bad condition and can't meet his parents' demand for money, this child is the least lovely in the family.
Reader Lian Lian (pseudonym) has three brothers and sisters. She is the eldest in the family and has a younger brother and sister. All three of them have taken part in the work. If you say who is the most loved by parents, there is actually no specific person. Her mother only looks at money rather than people, and her father can't control it.
Lianlian said that her mother is her brother's helper. Since she was a child, she watched her mother buy a bunch of things for her uncle's family during the Spring Festival. However, my uncle gave her three brothers and sisters lucky money, but her mother refused, always saying that her brother was in trouble.
Her father turned a blind eye to all her mother's actions. She and her younger brother and sister are young and have to listen to their mother's arrangement. However, her mother is stingy with everyone except her uncle.
Lianlian said that her family was greedy for money. They only help each other in front of their families and are very stingy with their relatives and friends.
Now that they have grown up and have jobs, her mother doesn't care much about her brother's family. She also has a pension, but she asks their brothers and sisters for money on time every month.
At first, they thought it was not easy for their parents to give money, but over time, they didn't want to give it, because her mother often lost in playing mahjong with money, and the three of them worked hard outside the home.
Lianlian's mother belongs to that kind of particularly strong woman. Her father is in charge all her life, and every penny her father earns will be given to her mother without reservation. She and her brother and sister are the same now.
Her brother is a boy. He didn't like her mother's behavior and refused to give money directly. No matter how much her mother wants, people say she has no money. Her sister doesn't earn much. It doesn't matter whether she gives it to her mother or not. Only she earns more and is the boss of the family. Once she doesn't give money, her mother will call her baiwenhang.
Her brother is not scolded, but she cares. She doesn't want people to think that she is an unfilial daughter, so she gives whatever her mother says.
But then she talked about her boyfriend. When she was planning to get married, her mother's greedy expression frightened her ex-boyfriend. When she first met him, she asked him for a bride price. The other party thought that her mother preferred sons to daughters, so she was scared to break up with her.
She hasn't talked to anyone in these two years. She knows that her mother is looking forward to her finding a rich husband every day, but her own conditions are average and men with good conditions don't like her.
Her mother asked people everywhere to introduce her to rich people. She met two people and neither of them agreed. Her mother not only introduced her, but also introduced her brother to a rich girlfriend. Lianlian said that she was helpless to her mother.
Many were introduced, but none of them succeeded. Her mother also lost confidence and ignored their marriage. Lianlian's current boyfriend is what she said. They are colleagues and the other's family conditions are also very good. As an only child, she has been worried that her parents will look down on her.
However, after meeting her parents, her boyfriend's family was very satisfied with her, and she was relieved. Every time her boyfriend goes to her house, her mother asks her boyfriend about his income, and even secretly calls him to ask others to buy her a mobile phone without telling her.
Lianlian felt particularly humiliated when she knew. She wants to give money to her boyfriend. However, her boyfriend really likes her and doesn't care about her mother. Naturally, she won't ask for mobile phone money.
Now she and her boyfriend are getting married, but she said early that the bride price can only be given to her, no matter what her mother wants.
As a result, her mother really asked her boyfriend for a bride price. The boyfriend said that the bride price had been given to Lianlian, and the mother asked her daughter for it. Lianlian said that her boyfriend bought a house and didn't give much as a bride price. She has given all her salary for these years to her family, and she has no savings in her hand. She took this bride price as a dowry to her small home.
When her mother asked her how much bride price she had given, she almost blurted out that it was 1.8 million. Although it is not very kind to lie to her mother, her mother is different from others' mothers. She still hid the truth and told her that she only gave 60 thousand.
Lianlian said: "My mother asked my boyfriend how much the bride price was, and she just wanted to say 1.8 million. On second thought, she still said 60 thousand. Actually, I'm sorry. Anyway, it's my real mother, but I still have to cheat her for the bride price. "
Before she was sad for long, her mother said, let her take out the bride price of 50 thousand, and take the rest 1 10 thousand when she got married. Lianlian's heart was so cold that she felt sorry for her mother's lying, but her mother only looked at the money and ignored her.
In the end, I couldn't beat her mother, so I gave her 30 thousand. Lianlian said that she was actually worried. After getting married, her mother kept asking for money and didn't know what to do.
After listening to Lianlian's story, I still advised her to keep a little distance from her mother and say everything before marriage. If this continues after marriage, her husband will definitely not accept it.
There are really selfish old people in the world. For example, I think Jiang's grandmother in the recent hit drama The Last Romance is very selfish. She seems to be trying to make peace with her granddaughter. In fact, she is still thinking about her old age.
Just say that after Jiang's father died, she could have gone abroad to study with her aunt, but because grandma didn't want to go to a nursing home, she had to stay.
In fact, Jiang's grandmother shouldn't have tied her granddaughter to her side. She didn't like this granddaughter since she was a child. Although she didn't skimp on her life, she always hated the girl Jiang.
But when she is helpless, it is extremely selfish to rely on her granddaughter and become her burden. Moreover, she said to her neighbor's grandmother, "I am relying on my granddaughter now, and I don't know if I can rely on it."
Speaking of relying on others, in fact, Jiang Ye has become her dependence, and she also doubts that her granddaughter is unreliable. Every time Jiang comes home late for something, she is worried that she is alone at home and always wants others to accompany her.
Although this grandmother and Wen Lian's mother have different behaviors, they are both selfish people who only think of themselves.
In the minds of people like them, they don't care about the sufferings of the younger generation, but only care about whether they enjoy the life they want. When you meet selfish elders, as a junior, it is difficult for you to choose, so you can only do your best.
