When I went home for the Chinese New Year, I wanted to drive a Mercedes-Benz back, but my wife asked me to rent a car and go home. I am puzzled but rejoicing

Dear men in their thirties, today, I would like to share with you a story about wisdom and a low-key attitude to life. This story makes us understand that in a materialistic society, true wisdom is often reflected in the rational treatment of wealth and the delicate grasp of interpersonal relationships. So, what is it that makes a wife insist on choosing an ordinary car instead of a luxury car to return to her hometown, and what is the profound moral behind her decision? Let's step into this story and find out.

The protagonist of the story, Chen Dongliang, is a successful renovation company owner. With his business booming, he decided to buy a Mercedes Benz on New Year's Day 2024 to improve his social status and win the appreciation of relatives and friends when he returned home for the Chinese New Year. He and his wife have experienced a nine-year long-distance love run, from poor to well-off, and they have witnessed each other's growth and change together.

However, when discussing plans to return home, his wife made an unexpected suggestion: rent an ordinary car worth about 150,000 yuan and go home instead of driving a newly purchased Mercedes. This suggestion puzzled Mr. Chen, but he eventually decided to follow his wife's advice.

As it turned out, this decision was a wise one. At family gatherings, they avoid the embarrassment of having a car too expensive. At the party at the uncle's house, they avoided being borrowed by relatives through low-key performance. What's more, they witnessed family strife caused by other relatives flaunting their wealth, which strengthened their determination to keep a low profile.

This story tells us that while pursuing material satisfaction, we must also know how to be low-key and wise. True wisdom is not about how much wealth you have, but about how to use it wisely and how to maintain balance and harmony in your relationships.
