C7 The Modern Day the Daily Life of the Leftover Girl

It was already 9 o'clock when Irene returned home. She raised her head and looked at her window.

Although the lights were bright, indicating that her parents were still waiting for her to return home, she suddenly lost the joy of returning home.

Since she was young, home was a synonym for warmth, happiness, and safety. Ever since she had stepped into the twenty-fourth year of her life, she was more and more afraid of returning home.

At the age of twenty-four, in the eyes of her parents, relatives, and friends, she was already a bachelor.

They were even more anxious about her marriage, especially during the holidays. When their relatives gathered together, they all followed behind her and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Why haven't I found one yet?"

"How about I introduce one to you?"

"We've already done the blind date. How is the other party?"

"Why haven't you found one yet?"

"What fate? It's not reliable. It's fate when you get married. Hurry up and pick one. Otherwise, you can only choose the b*stard who is left behind... What? You're not getting married! "

She said that if she married a b*stard, she might as well not get married.

Thus, everyone surrounded her and spat at her. They told her with a serious tone, "How could it not be good if you don't get married?"

In conclusion, they said, "Ha, a bachelor is a sinful sinner who is the cause of instability in society. He should be dragged out and shot to death!"

Irene's mind was filled with the gazes of her aunts and uncles, as well as Aunt Lee's. Her eyes were accusing her: 'Old woman', 'old pervert'.

In this society, women were supposed to be married off to rich men, and the same went for the men. As a result, Gladys had been brainwashed by the public opinion. She had already decided to marry off her daughter as her lifelong dream and goal. The impact of the news was not to be underestimated, and the warm home gradually turned cold amidst the noise.

Every time she was at home, she would talk to Gladys for less than three sentences before talking about marriage. Irene's life, which was filled with happiness, came to an abrupt end.

Irene tried her best to calm herself down and think of a way to respond to her mother. When she went upstairs, she was just about to touch the key when the door opened from the inside.

Gladys asked excitedly, "Irene, how is the target this time?"

Before she could answer, she looked outside vigilantly and quickly pulled her daughter into the house, locking the door.

Irene took the initiative to tell her mother a few things, but she did not dare to tell her mother that she had spent more than a hundred thousand yuan on a meal. Otherwise, Gladys would definitely go crazy.

In any case, she meant that Daivet was too vain and was not a good match for her.

When Gladys heard this, she knew that she was being perfunctory to her boyfriend. She said for Daivet, "A man loves his face."

"For example, your dad only had a salary of five yuan a month back then. He brought me out for a meal, and it costed two yuan. After that, I married him."

He was a car salesman, and he wore tattered clothes. He did not care about his appearance. Did you think that he would be able to meet people? Men would spend money to earn money. Otherwise, why don't you look at him from time to time? Irene, you can't judge people by their appearance."

Although Gladys said so, she was still a little disappointed. The sales commission was high, so the salary would not be low. Obviously, Daivet was not in this line of work.

Men were afraid of entering the wrong line of work, and women were afraid of marrying the wrong man.

Among all the blind dates, Daivet was the one with the lowest salary.

Irene knew that if she refuted, Gladys would definitely say it again and again. She could only obey. "Mmm, no matter what, he is very handsome and very considerate. He doesn't talk much, and he doesn't seem impatient. He has a good upbringing."

"Is that so? I told you, people are not perfect." Gladys was pleased. The more she listened, the more satisfied she became.

As Irene spoke, she secretly gave her father, who was watching TV, a look of distress.

Barney stood up and said, "The square dance is starting downstairs. I'll go and take a look."

Now that Gladys had the chance, she decided to let Irene go for the time being.

Irene heaved a sigh of relief and went back to her room to wash up. She turned on her computer and edited the design she had made during the day. Then, she went to her bed to play with her QQ.
