Are there still people who don't like sweets?
Jia Dongxu rubbed his hands together, wanting to tell her about his family.
But he was in such a rush that morning that he didn't even have time to brush his teeth.
A taste in the mouth.
The stench made Qin Huai QQ Jun Yang Ru 042 twist her neck to the side, stumble, and almost fall.
He Hongyang reached out to help.
Upon seeing his hand, she felt an urge to collapse into his arms.
"Thank you, Brother He."
Her shy demeanor was completely different from how she acted with Jia Dongxu.
53. Exorbitant bride price
I saw these two people, even at their home, they were arm in arm.
Madam Jia was immediately enraged and said arrogantly.
“My son is a full-time employee at the steel rolling mill, and he earns more than 20 yuan a month. If we lived in the countryside, he probably wouldn’t earn that much in several months.”
“Our house has two rooms, and we eat and use the best things. If you ask around in the courtyard houses, our family’s conditions are definitely among the best.”
"Dongxu is the only son in the family. I spoiled him since he was a child. He would give me anything, even the moon."
Jia Zhangshi was like a rabbit dung bottle filled with fake medicine pills, and she couldn't help but boast that her family was the best in Beijing.
Aunt Li understood immediately and said, "Miss Huai Ru, today is our formal meeting. Please feel free to tell us what you need, and the Jia family will definitely meet your expectations."
Jia Dongxu immediately replied, "Whatever the request, our family has no problem with it."
She also wants three rooms, a bicycle, a watch, a sewing machine, and a radio. Do they have those?
She also wanted a man with style like He Hongyang. Did her family have one?
She also wanted to eat as many sunflower seeds, peanuts, and sorghum candy as she wanted. Did they have any at home?
But since they've said that, I might as well just say what I think.
Now is the best time; once this opportunity is gone, it will be gone forever.
If the Jia family could really agree to her conditions, and if she could marry into the Siheyuan family, wouldn't she be able to see He Hongyang every day?
Maybe they'll still have a chance...
Thinking this, she boldly said.
"I want a sewing machine, a women's bicycle, and I also want to renovate my parents' house to show my filial piety as their daughter."
When Jia Zhangshi heard these demands, she almost fainted from fright!
I thought that people from rural areas were timid and would only ask for clothes and bedding.
I never expected her to ask for such an exorbitant amount!
They even dared to ask for a bicycle, and a women's bicycle at that.
She doesn't even have a job, what does she need a bicycle for? Does she want to ride it out and have fun?
She also wants to renovate her parents' house?
What about fulfilling filial piety?
A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; once she's in the Jia family, she has nothing to do with the Qin family anymore. Why should we help them renovate their house?
Isn't this just blatantly asking for money?
He Hongyang almost burst out laughing.
It seems that letting her into my home first was the right thing to do.
Once Qin Huairu sees his family's situation, she will definitely make even higher demands.
I just didn't expect her to ask for an exorbitant price.
Isn't this going to kill the Jia family?!
Her standards have risen; if she doesn't agree, she definitely won't agree to this marriage.
There's something good to watch now!
Madam Jia immediately shook her head: "No, I can't agree to that."
"Since you won't agree, I'll leave now."
When Jia Dongxu saw that she was about to leave, he became anxious.
Pointing to the bicycles outside, he said, "Look, we have bicycles at home, so we don't need to buy any more."
Sha Zhu stared at the bicycle.
"Isn't this Master Yi's beat-up car? How did it end up at your house?"
Then she noticed the bedding on their bed: "I remember you didn't have this many blankets at home. How did you manage to get so many blankets in the blink of an eye?"
"You guys aren't just trying to fool us, are you?"
Upon realizing he had been exposed, Jia Dongxu was speechless.
Qin Huairu already looked down on this family, but she didn't expect that they had borrowed all these things.
She was so angry that she wanted to leave immediately.
It looked like the marriage was about to fall through.
Aunt Li immediately stepped in to smooth things over.
"Dongxu's mom, I have to say something to you. How could you borrow a bicycle? Even if you were going to borrow one, you should have borrowed a good one. What's the point of borrowing such a dilapidated one?"
“Miss Huai Ru, let’s sit down and talk. Isn’t the point of a blind date to reach an agreement? There’s no such thing as a one-off deal.”
"What you're asking for—a sewing machine, a bicycle, and house renovations—is a bit too much. Look around this yard, which house can meet your requirements?"
Qin Huairu looked at He Hongyang with starry eyes.
“Brother He’s family has these.”
Jia Dongxu slapped his thigh in frustration. If he had known this would happen, he should have gone to He Hongyang's house to borrow these things to save face.
She looked at He Hongyang expectantly, hoping he could say a few words on her behalf.
he smiled.
“These are nothing. After all, it’s a marriage of convenience for a daughter. Even if she doesn’t make any demands, her parents will.”
Qin Huairu felt as if she had found a kindred spirit, and wished she could have held his hand back then.
“That’s right, these are all things my parents told me. It’s not easy for our Qin family to raise a girl, we can’t just give her away for nothing.”
Watching the two of them sing in harmony.
Madam Jia was so angry she was practically fuming!
What does it mean when she keeps calling me "Brother He"?
Thinking back, He Hongyang had nothing when he married Wang Liying.
And they lived together even though they weren't married.
Why is it that getting a wife for the He family is as easy as eating a meal?
And that's why it's so difficult for them to find a wife!
She looked at her son with a longing expression.
When he saw Qin Huairu, he was like a bee to a flower, completely captivated!
If I let her go now, her son might sever ties with me.
Let's hear about her betrothal gifts first.
If she could do without a bride price like Wang Liying, perhaps she could consider it.
"Should we ask for a bride price?"
Aunt Li chimed in, "Since you've asked for so many things, you'll definitely ask for less in dowry."
Who knew that Qin Huairu would say that at that time.
“My mom said I have to get 101. I’m one of the best girls in our village, I’m definitely worth the price!”
Upon hearing this, Madam Jia's face turned deathly pale.
Oh my god!
He just blurted out 101.
Do you think the Jia family makes money?
They even said it was one in a hundred.
I think she's not exceptionally beautiful, but rather exceptionally picky about what she wants.
I thought that finding a girl from the countryside would save me money.
Unexpectedly, the rural girl had even bigger appetites, asking for both gifts and a dowry.
Jia Dongxu was also terrified.
How long will it take him to earn back all that money?
His mother doesn't work, and his salary, after supporting his family, doesn't allow him to save much each month.
The bride price alone is this much.
This is just the beginning.
He couldn't even bear to think about getting married and having a wedding banquet.
But he was unwilling to give up so easily!
Qin Huairu is beautiful.
If he marries her, he'll be considered one of the most important young men in this compound.
It's better than marrying a panel.
Thinking of the sounds coming from He Hongyang's house, day and night, he realized that he had finally found someone he liked and was determined to get married this year no matter what.
54. What kind of pot goes with what kind of lid!
Jia Dongxu kept giving Jia Zhangshi meaningful glances, trying to get her to agree.
Qin Huairu looked at the two people, and neither of them answered her questions.
"Brother He, do you think I'm asking for too much?"
1001671055
This Qin Huairu is no pushover.
No wonder he could outmaneuver Sha Zhu in the show.
Making so many demands before even getting married, what will happen after the wedding? The Jia family will be ruined.
But what pot goes with what lid!
A woman like her is fine to play around with, but whoever marries her is doomed.
Not only do they lack a woman's virtue, but they are also solely driven by profit.
However, this is exactly in line with the Jia family's tradition.
He Hongyang deliberately said, "Of course not many. There are one in a hundred, one in a thousand, one in ten thousand, and so on. All three families get rich together."
Sha Zhu asked curiously.
