Shang, a divorced man in his sixties, has been living alone in his house for some years. He used to be in the steel recycling business, earning more than 3,000 yuan per car, but the long-term absence caused a rift in his relationship with his wife. His wife started playing mahjong and eventually developed feelings for others. Although Shang admitted that he didn't have much time at home, he felt that in order to make money to support the family, his wife should understand him. However, his wife's betrayal made him difficult to accept, and the two eventually chose to divorce.
After the divorce, although many women took the initiative to approach Shang, he was so focused on business that he had no time to consider remarrying. However, fate did not always favor him, and business failures and a serious illness gave him a new perspective on life. He began to deposit the rest of his money in the bank, living on interest every month, and gradually felt lonely and lonely. He wanted to find a partner who could take care of each other and spend their old age together.
With the help of the matchmaker, Shang met Jiang. Jiang is a widowed lady with a fixed monthly pension, which is not much, but it is enough for her to live. She has experienced the hardships of life and has taken on the burden of the family on her own, working as a security guard and nanny. After retiring, she felt lonely and lonely and hoped to find a partner who was good to her and had a pension.
The first meeting between the two was very pleasant. Shang has a good impression of Jiang, and thinks that she has a wide heart and a fat body, dresses festively, and is always happy. Jiang also has a good impression of Shang, thinking that he is tall, healthy and tasteful. During the conversation, Jiang frankly told Shang that he was not highly educated, but Shang did not mind, but comforted her that culture is not the whole of life.
The two chatted very speculatively, and Shang even expressed his willingness to hand over the salary card to Jiang to take care of. Jiang was very moved by this and felt that Shang was a man who could be relied on. She also hoped that Shang would be able to move to live with her, but Shang said that as long as the two of them got along, they could live anywhere.
In the end, Shang invited Jiang to spend a few days with him in order to get to know each other better. Jiang readily agreed, and bluntly offered to want a ring as a souvenir of the two together. Although Shang was a little surprised by Jiang's directness, he did not get angry, but expressed his willingness to meet her request. The two held each other's hands tightly, as if they had found support in their old age.
