A leisurely life that begins with the possession of a game character

However, in fact, both Wen Ran's uncle and Wen Ran's cousin's boyfriend knew that it was completely different.

Surnames are deeply rooted in the patriarchal system of traditional Chinese families, and the struggle over who to give a surname to one's children can easily become entangled in patriarchal discourse.

In traditional marriages where one marries into the wife's family, the right to pass on one's surname to one's children belongs to the woman's family, which is more powerful but has no male children to carry on the family line. The economic and social conditions of the man who marries into the wife's family are generally slightly lower than those of the woman.

In the eyes of Wen Ran's cousin's boyfriend, if my child's last name is Wen, doesn't that mean I'm a live-in son-in-law? He absolutely disagrees.

Wen Ran's uncle said, "I have worked hard all my life, but I don't even have a descendant. What's the point of working hard? So if you don't agree, just break up. I will find another one for my daughter."

Just look for it again. The world is so big, you can always find the original meaning.

But here lies the trouble: Wen Ran's cousin is unwilling to break up.

To be honest, it is really a headache for a wealthy family to raise a daughter who is a pure love warrior.

This is not just a question of whose surname the child should take, but mainly because the parents cannot figure out whether the future son-in-law is after their daughter or the family property.

Cousin Wen Ran herself doesn’t care about the right to pass on her surname, because one who doesn’t manage the household doesn’t know how expensive firewood and rice are.

The money was earned by her parents, and she was responsible for spending it. In fact, she was used to spending money casually, so she didn't feel any surprise at all. She thought that this was how normal life should be, and there was no sense of superiority.

But she doesn't know that her parents had to work their way up from the humble beginnings to earn money. Even though they are successful now and seem to be able to look down on others.

But in front of their boss, they still have to smile and eat shit, but compared to the past, the shit they eat now is bigger, and if they choke on it, they may have to eat shit next to the sewing machine.

Since making money is like eating shit, her parents have made a lot of money and eaten a lot of shit that ordinary people can hardly imagine. So what are they trying to achieve?

In addition to making life better for the family, the purpose is to pass on the legacy. Don’t talk about selfishness, it’s human nature. Once everyone has the opportunity to accumulate, the next step is to consider inheritance.

Who will it be passed on to? They are happy to pass it on to their own children, but they may not be happy to pass it on to a child with a different surname through their children. Even if the child is born to their daughter, they will still feel uncomfortable.

Once people have accumulated something, they will definitely consider inheritance. However, the life span of an individual is limited, so the ultimate form of inheritance must be in the form of one clan and one surname.

Over thousands of years of imperial rule, more than 400 emperors, and the four major families in capitalist countries, all of whom were the top people, could not escape this way of thinking, let alone ordinary people.

In fact, in Wen Ran's opinion, his uncle and aunt are kind people.

Wen Ran has seen how many families similar to his cousin's play.

In most cases: when a couple becomes wealthy and has one daughter, then having a son would solve the problem.

It’s hard to have a baby when you’re older, so you can try IVF or surrogate motherhood. There are always ways to satisfy your needs.

Generally speaking: parents find a rich man whom they have never met but is a good match for their daughter to marry. Although there is no surname, at least the parents can be sure that the other party is not after their family's money, and they can feel at ease. At the same time, the two families are united. Although there is no right to give the surname, the business can be bigger and life can be more comfortable. This is a realistic approach.

In a few cases: when the couple has become wealthy but the relationship is average, the father will try to go out and secretly sow seeds. When the daughter has been married for many years, the little revolutionary spark has grown up, and the family property belongs to the other party.

In very rare cases: when the parents become wealthy, their tempers become tougher and they insist that the daughter-in-law must marry into the family. Otherwise, there is no point in talking.

The above situations can satisfy the uncle's demands for blood inheritance or business experience. But at the same time, each of them will cause Wen Ran's cousin to lose something in some way.

Wen Ran's uncle and aunt did not do so. Wen Ran felt that in addition to her own family's situation, another point was that her uncle and aunt were not considered cruel among the rich people, and they really respected their daughter's feelings.

If it were Wen Ran, if she were his uncle, he wouldn't even discuss whose surname to take. When he comes to the house, he will be treated to a good meal, and when he is drunk, he will throw a mushroom cloud at him. Tell him that our family only accepts live-in sons-in-law. My daughter is shy and has never mentioned it to you. I am shameless, but I tell you this clearly.

When the youngsters get embarrassed and humiliated, they will be sent away. We want to leave on bad terms.

In a few days, ask my cousin Wen Ran to tell her boyfriend that our dad likes you very much. Our dad has agreed that it is okay for him not to be a live-in son-in-law, but to have two children, one for each family. The old man has already nodded with a smile on his face.

At this time, Wen Ran's cousin's partner will most likely agree. Because people have a psychological trait, when a devastating disaster is replaced by a lighter disaster, the lighter disaster will turn into a blessing.

In other words, if you want to open a window, you must first lift up the roof.

The boss directly deducted 200 yuan from the job, so he first criticized and fired the person, and then changed it to a fine of 200 yuan, which made him very happy.

I met a bandit on the road and he snatched my wallet. I wanted to fight him, but he snatched my wallet and gave me five dollars and told me to take the subway home. Then I felt that this guy was not that bad.

Wen Ran's uncle didn't do that. He just gave a price, and then Wen Ran's cousin's boyfriend had the capital to get angry.

Before coming to Qin Yongjun's place, Wen Ran gave advice to her cousin.

Wen Ran said to her cousin: Call your partner and tell him that after careful consideration, your father is deeply moved by your true love and is ready to help you get married. The gift and wedding ceremony will be arranged accordingly, but the issue of giving the child's surname will not be mentioned anymore. No matter how many children you two have, they will all take the man's surname.

But there is one thing that I have to make clear in advance. When your daughter gets married, she will be a member of your family and you will be the one to support her in the future. Your father will also need someone to take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life. I have many nephews, and I will ask them to take care of him in his old age and give most of my family property to them. It depends on whether your boyfriend agrees or not.

Wen Ran was originally giving his cousin an idea and testing her boyfriend at the same time. But as soon as Wen Ran came up with the idea, his cousin was immediately unwilling to do it.

"Cousin, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by giving my parents' property to my nephew? Why? My family's property should be mine."

Well, Wen Ran originally wanted to put some pressure on her cousin’s boyfriend, but her cousin was directly unhappy.

Regardless of whether it is a test for my boyfriend or not, my family’s property is mine, and nothing else can be mentioned.

When Wen Ran came up with the idea, he was at his cousin's house. Seeing his cousin's reaction, Wen Ran didn't want to say anything else. What does this have to do with him? No matter how much the family property is, it won't go to him. It's better to stay out of this business. (End of this chapter)
