"Brother Ting's girlfriend is 30 years old and she didn't catch up with family planning," Gu Junzhu said. "Her brother is two years younger than him. The country only began to implement family planning policies when her brother was born."

Ye Xingbei said, "In fact, family planning is useless in some places. Many elderly people think that having more children and grandchildren is a blessing. In the small town where I lived when I was a child, even if my family was poor, four or five were still living hard."

"Yes," Mr. Gu sighed. "In the past, the elderly thought that having more children and grandchildren was a blessing. Actually, now I think so, once a person gets older, I hope that the family will be lively. If anyone likes children, he will have more children in the future. Our family can raise more children. But if you don't like it, you can have one. I won't force you to have your own thoughts and your own lives. As long as you are happy, I will support you no matter what decision you make."

Thinking of his mother, his uncle, aunt, and Yun Jue, who died young, especially wanted to slap him a few times.

What bad topic did he have?

Gu Junzhu also discovered the old man's sadness and changed the topic: "Brother Ting's girlfriend's family is in poor condition and has no money at home. Brother Ting's girlfriend's elder brother cannot marry a wife. Brother Ting's girlfriend's parents married their eldest daughter to a divorced old man. He asked the other party for 200,000 betrothal gifts before building a house for their eldest son and marrying his wife."

"It is very common to marry a girl's betrothal gift to marry a son in poor places," Ye Xingbei said, "The poorer the place, the more common it is."

If a family without money doesn’t have the son to marry a wife, they can only marry their daughter. They ask the other party for a betrothal gift, accept the betrothal gift, and marry the son to marry a wife.

Many people who have no money do this.

"But the local betrothal gift price of Brother Ting's girlfriend was 88,000, and their family asked for 200,000," Gu Junzhu said. "Brother Ting's girlfriend's elder sister originally had a boyfriend, and the two had a good relationship. In order to marry her elder sister, her elder sister's boyfriend convinced his parents to take out all their savings, borrowed tens of thousands, and raised 120,000 yuan, but Brother Ting's girlfriend's parents still disagreed."

"Ting's girlfriend's sister has a good relationship with her boyfriend. My subordinates asked about it and said that Ting's girlfriend's sister knelt at the feet of her parents and begged her parents to receive tens of thousands of dollars less, but Ting's girlfriend's parents still did not agree to their marriage."

"The eldest sister of Brother Ting's girlfriend said she would not marry her boyfriend. The mother of Brother Ting's girlfriend committed suicide by cutting her wrists and forced her to die, forcing her girlfriend's sister to agree to marry the old man who was given 200,000 yuan. The old man was only 23 years old when she got married, and the old man was forty-five."

Yun Jue frowned, "Is this too cruel? Is it my real parents?"

"It's really too much," Ye Xingbei also said, "In our town, although many parents will use their daughter's betrothal gifts to marry their sons, they also try to find a good family for their daughter. They don't marry their daughter in their twenties to an old man in their forties for money. Isn't this selling their daughter?"
