The boss of Jiayuan Matchmaking Company is named Wang. Boss Wang is over sixty years old this year. At this time, he is sitting on the boss's chair in the company office with a lonely look, giving people the feeling of a hero in his twilight years.

"Dad, are you really planning to sell the company?" Boss Wang's son Wang Qing asked.

Boss Wang sighed and said: "You also know the current operating situation of the company. Last year we were able to struggle a little bit, but this year we have been losing money. I can't even think about selling it."

Wang Qing muttered: "Dad, we are not the only matchmaking company that has been operating at a loss this year. Do you think we can unite with other matchmaking companies to fight against Happy Dating Agency?"

Boss Wang shook his head and said: "It's useless. That Master Jiang is really awesome. No dating agency with him can compete with Happy Dating Agency."

Wang Qing was silent for a moment and then asked: "Dad, I don't think there is any need to sell the company. We can't compete with Happy Dating Agency in Yongcheng, so we might as well move the company to other provinces. As long as we stay away from Happy Dating Agency, we should

There is still a chance for a comeback.”

Boss Wang looked at his unwilling son and explained: "I have thought about this too, but if I move the company to another province, everything will have to start from scratch, which is much more difficult than when I first started the company.

After all, I just lacked startup capital at that time, but there were no dating agencies in the entire Yongcheng city. Without competitors, the company's business was relatively smooth.

But now, no matter which city you are in, there is no shortage of matchmaking companies. The market share has long been divided up by these matchmaking companies. With the strength of our company, it is almost impossible to carve out a way out of the many matchmaking companies.

Moreover, I am already over sixty, and I no longer have the ambition I had at the beginning. Anyway, the company has made a lot of money over the years, and it is time to retire and enjoy life."

When Wang Qing heard this, he knew that his father had completely given up struggling, so he stopped trying to persuade him.

So, when the matchmaking corner in the park was closed, the former No. 1 matchmaking company in Yongcheng also quietly disappeared from the matchmaking market.

Even the Jiayuan matchmaking company couldn't bear it, let alone other matchmaking companies. One by one, they all closed down.

From then on, the Happy Dating Agency, which had no rivals in the first place, could no longer find any competitors.

Because there is no other dating agency in the whole city of Yong.

Many middle-aged people, including the author, feel that they are not as good as a dog.

Nowadays, the status of pet dogs in the family is really getting higher and higher. Many dog ​​lovers raise pet dogs as their own children or younger brothers and sisters. There are endless ways and means of loving dogs, which has caught the attention of countless people.

There is a girl walking on the street carrying a big yellow dog on her back.

Good guy, judging from the photos taken by passers-by, the big yellow dog weighed at least 20 pounds and was riding on the girl's back. The girl was holding the dog's butt with both hands. It looked really funny.

There is also a video of two dogs riding up a mountain in a sedan.

After seeing that video, I don’t know how many people were silent. People are inferior to dogs. It’s really not just talk.

In particular, a certain Bai Fumei posted about the luxurious life of her pet dog on the Internet. The basic necessities, food, housing and transportation are so high-end. Its quality of life is really better than 90% of the people in the world.

There are dozens of types of dog snacks alone, and each one is worth a lot of money. Jars are placed all over the wall. It seems that dogs will get tired of eating the same snack every day, so there are dozens of flavors.

In other words, such a wide variety of food is worthy of the emperor's royal dining room.

Then there are the bowls for dogs to eat food. There are dozens of them, neatly arranged in rows. It is said that each bowl costs hundreds of yuan. There is a dedicated bowl for each snack. It is so luxurious.

There are also clothes for pet dogs, which are even more staggering. Two rows of wardrobes are full of hangings. From skirts to vests and down jackets, you can say that they have everything all year round, and the various colors and styles are even more dazzling.

Then there are necklaces and other jewelry on the layer below the clothes. Dogs have to change clothes every day when they go out, and they also need to wear different jewelry for each piece of clothing.

Finally, there is the dog's "bedroom", which is definitely luxurious. The white sheets, pillows, and mosquito nets are simple yet elegant. It can be seen that the owner is also very tasteful. The dog lives here.

Don't get too comfortable.

The fact that a pet dog can live such a luxurious life makes most people feel ashamed, and their hearts are like ten thousand horses galloping around.

Moreover, many girls sleep with their pet dogs in the same bed...

Regardless of whether it is right or wrong to love dogs like this, anyway, such a dog is really enviable. If it could become such a dog, I believe many people would be tempted, right?

Zhang Feimo is a true dog lover. She is different from those dog lovers on the Internet who do disgusting things in the name of loving dogs. She loves dogs rationally.

Zhang Feimo is 26 years old this year. Because her parents are busy at work, the person who accompanied her most when she was a child was the big yellow dog at home.

This big yellow dog accompanies her as she grows up, and then dies when she is in high school.

She still remembers that the day the big yellow dog died, she burst into tears, feeling as if a relative had died.

After the big yellow dog left, her parents stopped raising dogs.

It wasn't until she graduated from college and started working that Zhang Feimo bought a teddy back to raise.

Now four years later, this Teddy has become an inseparable part of her life, and she has sacrificed a lot to raise this dog.

Not to mention the time and money spent, the main reason is that her emotions are also affected. After all, not everyone likes dogs.

Zhang Feimo is not in a hurry about this. She must find a man who likes dogs as much as she does in her life. Only in this way can a marriage with common interests last long.

However, she herself was not in a hurry, but her parents were a little anxious. After several attempts to get married, her parents "herded" her to the Happy Dating Agency, preparing to ask Master Jiang, a nationally renowned matchmaker, to come forward.

Find a suitable partner for her.

…

Happy Dating Agency.

In the office, Jiang Feng listened to Zhang's mother introducing her daughter.

"Master Jiang, my daughter is 26 years old this year. She is 1.63 meters tall. You have seen her figure and appearance. She has a bachelor's degree and is currently working at XX company. Her monthly salary is about 7,000, which is pretty good."

Jiang Feng looked at Zhang Feimo, who was sitting quietly holding a small teddy bear, and nodded: "My personal conditions are indeed good, and judging from the looks of my uncle and aunt, my family's conditions should also be good, right?"

Zhang's mother smiled modestly and said: "It's just a little better than ordinary people. We have a house and a car at home, which were all purchased with full payment. Her father and I both have our own jobs, and the income is pretty decent."

"Auntie is so humble. This condition is better than many people." At this point, Jiang Feng looked at Zhang Feimo and asked: "Ms. Zhang, do you have any requirements for your partner?"

Zhang Feimo touched the head of the little teddy in his arms, looked at Jiang Feng and said, "Master Jiang, I have two requirements for my partner."

Jiang Feng said: "Ms. Zhang, tell me."

Zhang Feimo said: "The first requirement is that the man must like dogs from the bottom of his heart. This is a rigid rule for me to find a partner."

Jiang Feng glanced at the little teddy in her arms, nodded and said, "I understand, but what about the second request?"

Zhang Feimo said: "The second requirement is that the personalities are compatible."

Jiang Feng said: "Okay, I understand, I will try my best to meet your request."

"Thank you, then I'll trouble Master Jiang!"

"You're welcome, this is what I should do."

The two parties exchanged polite greetings, then added each other's contact information, and then the three Zhang family members left.

…

"I really regret it. I chose you instead of choosing so many good suitors. I have endured hardships with you and there is no hope of turning around."

"I have endless housework to pay and debts to repay. I am really blind to marry someone like you!"

"I really don't want to live a day like this!"

"..."

In a residential area about 1,500 meters away from the Xingfu Dating Agency, Jin Shan was sitting on the sofa and looked at his wife Wei Youlan who was mopping the floor and chattering away. He heard the heart-wrenching words one after another that made his brain almost explode.

Already.

One thing to say is that his wife is not a lazy person. She really does a lot of housework. The house at home is always clean. After living there for two or three years, it is still as good as new.

She also has more control over the children. If her temper was not so bad, then she might be qualified to be rated as a good wife and mother.

But when she was working, she often had a bad look on her face. She would either curse or complain in front of him. In short, she must let him know how much she didn't want to do these housework.

If Jinshan just listens silently and doesn't reply, she will return to normal after she vents out the resentment in her heart. If he can't help but reply and argue with her, then she will definitely be like a powder keg, and will not be incisive.

She will definitely not give up after a fight.

Typical is a good character who does things but cannot be rewarded.

Today, the two of them were fine at first, but because of a trivial matter, Wei Youlan, who had been accusing her for several days, started to explode again.

This kind of thing happens every three to five times, and Jinshan is really bored to the extreme.

He once saw such a question on the Internet: "Why do so many men drive home and sit in the car for a long time when they get downstairs?"

At that time, one answer received high marks and likes: “Many times I don’t want to get off the car because that is a dividing point.

In the car, you can be alone, smoke a cigarette, and be in a daze. This body belongs to you. But when you open the car door, you are the fuel, rice, oil and salt, your father, your son, your husband, but you are not yourself.

We hide our true selves in our cars.

And once you open the car door and walk out, even if you are crying and crawling, you can only continue to act as someone who has high hopes for you."

This answer really expressed the bitterness of the middle-aged man, and also resonated with Jinshan.

As Jiang Wen said in "The Dog Days of Middle Ages": "Middle age is the age of laughter. You must not only please the elderly, but also be a good role model for your children. You must always pay attention to your wife's face and constantly cater to your boss's wishes.

thought.

In the middle age, for the sake of livelihood and face, they kept dealing with the house, car, and money. Later, they discovered that passion is a waste for the middle age. Dreams are a memorial to the middle age. If you can maintain your loyalty, you must be a good bitch."

Zhang Ailing also said in "Half Life": "A middle-aged man often feels lonely, because when he opens his eyes, he is surrounded by people who rely on him, but there is no one he can rely on."

As a miserable middle-aged man, Jinshan is tired enough of having to bear the pressure of supporting his family in Hukou. When he returns home, he still has to face his wife's complaints and abuse. She would not even think about such a life even for a single day.

, he also didn’t think about it for a day.
