There are only ten days left until the Spring Festival, and my friend, do you have the money in your pocket to go home and celebrate the New Year?
The miserable takeaway boy Li Younian looked at the pitiful balance in WeChat on his second-hand mobile phone with a broken screen, and felt mixed emotions in his heart.
A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the Chinese New Year will be here in a few days, and he, Li Younian, is a young man who has taken root in a first-tier city after graduating from university. Now that the Chinese New Year is coming, I can't even get a thousand yuan out of my pocket.
This year, he first worked in an electronics factory, but he resigned within a month because he couldn't stand the boring work life.
After that, he started delivering food and became a delivery boy. This year, he could not say that he made money by delivering food, but could only barely survive.
The high rents in first-tier cities take up almost half of his salary. As the Chinese New Year approaches, he is still considering whether to go home for the Chinese New Year this year. Looking at himself who has accomplished nothing, he feels that he has no face to go home.
At this time, his mother, who was back home, had already sent him a message.
"Son, when will you come back to celebrate the New Year? Mom hasn't seen you for a year, so I miss you. Your dad and sister miss you too."
When he saw a line of WeChat messages sent to him by his mother, Li Younian felt like a lump in his throat. At this moment, he realized how incompetent and useless he was.
During the two or three years of hard work, he didn't have much savings, and sometimes his family even gave him subsidies, which made him embarrassed to go home for the New Year.
