In the work "Deep Love and Rain", the Lu family is described as a relatively wealthy family. In those days, they were able to live in luxurious villas and drive cars. Although Wang Xueqin stole hundreds of thousands of property, with the help of Wei Guangxiong, the money in the Lu family's safe was stolen. Even if there are only tens of thousands of yuan left, Lu Zhenhua's economic situation has not completely collapsed, which is enough to prove that the economic strength of the Lu family is considerable.
Considering that Wang Xueqin is the only mistress of the Lu family, Lu Zhenhua was stolen hundreds of thousands, mainly because the financial power is completely in Wang Xueqin's hands. Therefore, Wang Xueqin is fully capable of providing better conditions for her children. Judging from her attitude towards Erjie, Erhao, and Ruping, Wang Xueqin is very willing to spend money, for example, if Ruping wants to buy a bracelet, she will buy a bracelet, and even take the initiative to buy clothes similar to celebrities for Ruping;Regarding Erhao, he never seemed financially strained when he was out entertaining guests;Not to mention Tiljie, who is the child of her and the man she loves dearly, Wei Guangxiong, who always buys whatever they want, but why does he always seem so stingy with Mengping?I think there are a few more reasons for this.
For example, in the first episode, Mengping was reprimanded by Wang Xueqin for her dispute with Erjie, which made Mengping very dissatisfied. She didn't understand why she was buying toys for Erje instead of an accordion for herself, was it a responsibility for a rich daughter
If Wang Xueqin is more devoted to herself and his son Erjie just because she loves Wei Guangxiong deeply, then she should be as stingy with Ruping and Erhao as she is with Meng Ping, so why do she have a different opinion?This reminds us of a plot from "Dream of Red Mansions". Actually, there is a specific reason behind this:
First of all, Er Hao is Wang Xueqin's eldest son. In that era, the feudal concept still existed, otherwise Lu Zhenhua would not have easily chosen Erjie. Erhao is Wang Xueqin's biological son, and knows that Keyun has given birth to grandchildren for his family, so he is very angry with Erhao and Wang Xueqin. Wang Xueqin leaked the secret about Fang Yu to Mengping. She is very concerned about whether Erhao's girlfriend is the right person. However, after Mengping was bullied by bad actors, Wang Xueqin's first suggestion was to let Mengping disclose her name so that she could marry them, without considering the other party's true identity.
Secondly, Wang Xueqin has high expectations for Ruping because she is an obedient person. But more importantly, Wang Xueqin knows that Ruping is a gentle, kind and well-liked person. If Wang Xueqin invests in her, her dream of recruiting a golden beetle son-in-law will also come true. For example, when she buys expensive clothes for Ruping, she hopes that Ruping will hold on to her book instead of simply telling Ruping that if your clothes get old, she will buy you a brand new one.
Third, for Mengping, although she is not as good as the other three children, this is also related to Mengping's profligacy to a certain extent. When she has more money, she will naturally have a lot of money, so she will use it to buy some luxury goods, such as jewelry and jewelry. Although Ruping has enough money to buy expensive bracelets, she doesn't splurge them casually. Even if she is a daughter, she will not think that she will buy whatever she wants. A bracelet for 20 yuan, she would think it was an expensive item.
Ruping always has money on her, this is because she won't squander it at will, so I still remember that Yiping came to ask for living expenses, felt that 20 yuan was less, and wanted to take more money, but was instigated by Wang Xueqin, when she was scolded by Lu Zhenhua, Ruping was able to take out some pocket money to Yiping and wanted to help her.
Mengping felt like a spendthrift moonlighter, and she was always asking for money. Although Wang Xueqin shared her reluctance, it is more accurate to say that her excessive consumption made Wang Xueqin feel dissatisfied. She said that she was a very principled girl and didn't like people to hurt others with their money. From the fact that after Mengping was bullied, she mentioned her affairs with those people, and it can be seen that she gave the money to those gangsters. She didn't expect them to do this, because they used to treat them as friends and often gave them money to spend.
It's worth noting that this is not once or twice, but something that happens often. Even if Wang Xueqin provided a bowl of water for her four children as pocket money, she couldn't resist Mengping from constantly spending it on others, so how much did Mengping spend this money on?
Do you remember when she met Yiping and He Shuhuan before she was bullied?At that time, Shuhuan Du Fei set foot in the dance hall of Shanghai for the first time, where he saw the menu, and the ** for a glass of red wine alone was as high as 5 yuan, what was going on?How much does it cost?It was a quarter of Yiping and her mother's monthly living expenses, and Du Fei was immediately frightened and screamed when he saw the 5 yuan wine money.
Considering that those gangsters are often paid for by Mengping, in such a high-consumption Shanghai, the ** of a glass of red wine is only 5 yuan. At that time, these thugs took a whole bottle of foreign wine and poured wine on Mengping, which is enough to show how much money Mengping needed to spend on that incident. Therefore, Wang Xueqin's attitude towards Mengping is not too harsh, and she cannot provide unlimited funding for her children's consumption. Although the Lu family has good economic conditions, Wang Xueqin, as their biological mother, will still be restrained in the cost of education. This is also the reason why she will have restrictions on the distribution of Mengping's pocket money.
