Jokes between male colleagues have no sons.

I don't know why this afternoon, my male colleague started telling me about his children. I felt a little uncomfortable when I spoke, but he still said that I could imagine him spitting through the mask. Usually, there is not much overlap. I wonder if he has any problems at work. As it happens, I appeared in front of him, and he wanted to spit out his bitterness, whether I was interested or not.

He said that he has three children, the eldest daughter and the second son are in China, and the youngest daughter is the child of a Vietnamese daughter-in-law.

The eldest daughter graduated from college soon, and spent a lot of money on art. She always has to take part in training and go sightseeing. It costs money quickly, but her daughter is really beautiful. He also showed me his daughter's photo, which was very beautiful and youthful, and immediately jumped on me from his mobile phone. I thought to myself, when I graduated, it was so beautiful.

The second son goes to high school and boarding school. The local living standard is high. Monthly living expenses 1500 yuan. He also sends some small flowers from time to time, but he usually doesn't contact. When he contacted, he just had no money in his pocket. 1500 yuan, that's the living expenses of my university for more than one month. Now, children's lives are really good.

My youngest daughter is a China-Vietnamese hybrid. She had never learned Vietnamese before she was 4 years old and always spoke Chinese. Chinese is only at the level of pinyin, so it is impossible to write Chinese characters. International schools in primary schools are bilingual in Vietnamese and English. The four main courses are Vietnamese, English, computer and mathematics, and the annual tuition fee is 50,000 RMB. I secretly sighed, it's really expensive, it's really a gold-swallowing beast.

He went on to say:

Children in China now have to rely on their parents' pensions to support them. I dare not ask his wife in China. There are some things we don't need to know, right? Now he specializes in raising this little girl around him. How can a little girl grow up cute?

Later, I finally found an excuse to end this small talk.

Later, I thought about it, or his youngest daughter is the happiest, with her parents around and going to a good school. In the future, her English level will beat her Vietnamese peers and she can speak Chinese. She has mastered three languages since childhood. This colleague has been in Vietnam for almost ten years and seldom goes home. How can he always take care of the children at home?

This is his life, and I am just a short-lived listener.

Just like you are my audience.

Your tea plum.
