Hua Shiyuan opened her cherry mouth, took the dragon fruit fed by Gu Yun in her mouth, and murmured softly.
Growing up, Hua Shiyuan has admired and respected her father, Hua Guoqiang.
The reason for respect is very simple. Hua Guoqiang can serve as a model father in both his life and his work.
Since kindergarten, Hua Shiyuan has always played a leading role in the class. She is even the first in the school to wear a red scarf.
In Hua Shiyuan's eyes, everyone favors her, mostly because of her father Hua Guoqiang, a typical good cadre.
He has a very insightful mind, but he does not conform to the secular world. He is a rare pure person.
It wasn't until she stepped into the system step by step that Hua Shiyuan was even more in awe of her father.
In his early years, Hua Guoqiang had outstanding abilities at a young age. He clearly had countless excellent opportunities and could easily reach a higher position, such as being appointed as deputy secretary of the Star City Intermediate People's Court or Star City Political and Legal Affairs, or taking over a certain position.
The olive branch extended by the city turned around and took a job in the county.
But he just doesn't want to compromise with some people or things, and he doesn't want to let the fairness and justice in his heart become dusty.
So he would rather live in his comfort zone and protect his inner peace.
Moreover, Hua Guoqiang loves his wife Zhou Fei deeply. Hua Guoqiang, who is nearly 50 years old, is tall, handsome and charming. Naturally, he is always surrounded by bees and butterflies, but he has never made any style mistakes.
.
Although this is partly due to the fact that the traditional men of the previous generation had more conservative values, compared to Gu Yun, they are much stronger.
"Really? Why didn't I feel it?"
Fei Zhou was entirely focused on her baby daughter's bulging belly, and didn't notice anything unusual about her husband at all.
"Honey, come here and help me!"
In the kitchen, Hua Guoqiang stuck his head out and waved to Zhou Fei, who was chatting happily.
"Okay, okay..."
Isn’t there a cooking aunt here?
Zhou Fei looked at the kitchen curiously, but did not express any doubts. She stood up and walked in the direction of Hua Guoqiang.
The couple entered the kitchen and closed the door. Hua Guoqiang turned on the faucet with one hand, handed the dishes to Zhou Fei with the other hand, leaned close and whispered.
"Honey, do you know what Xiao Gu just said to me?"
"what?"
Zhou Fei casually cut the vegetables into small pieces and replied: "You had such a bad temper along the way, didn't you just teach him a lesson?"
"How about it, does that kid know that he was wrong?"
"Maybe not."
"Um?"
There was a loud splashing sound, and Zhou Fei couldn't hear it clearly.
"He just told me that he would give us two betrothal gifts."
"Ha...it's a betrothal gift, it's alright if you mean it."
Zhou Fei rolled up her sleeves and tied up her long hair.
These days, it is normal for the in-laws to give wedding gifts.
"He also said that he would like to thank us for our kindness in raising him, which would be equivalent to one million per year, starting from the time Yuanyuan was born."
Hua Guoqiang obviously controlled his emotions, and a drop of sweat fell on his dark side face.
"One million, um, Yuanyuan is twenty-four years old this year...ah??!!"
Zhou Fei stopped washing vegetables, her pupils filled with disbelief.
She turned her head and saw Hua Guoqiang's serious expression.
"Are you kidding me? How can our family care so little about so much money?"
Hua Guoqiang hesitated to speak, and after a full minute, he said nervously: "Our... should be considered pocket money. You may not be able to calculate how much property the baby in the round belly will inherit.
....."
After hearing this, Zhou Fei's eyes lit up like stars.
.......
In the kitchen, the couple cooked their specialty dishes while wondering what to do with such a large sum of money.
Gu Yun was in a good mood in the living room. His father-in-law, who was originally angry, was calmed down by him after a lot of effort. He couldn't help but hum a ditty on the sofa.
As the saying goes, feelings cannot be measured by money.
But as the saying goes, what people want is not money, but an attitude!
When Gu Yun's attitude was impeccable, no matter how stubborn Hua Guoqiang was, he had to compromise on some things.
For example, dribbling the ball first and then getting married.
For example, apply for wine first and then get the license.
These deviant behaviors, which brought shame to the family, pale in comparison to the 24 million betrothal gift.
What happens if you get pregnant out of wedlock?
What’s wrong with having a wedding with a baby in your arms?
When the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt are gossiping, please look down at the pile of cash before you speak!
Hua Guoqiang, a traditional man, was defeated head-on for the first time by capitalists who did not respect martial ethics.
What Gu Yun said is right.
When others gossip, they just feel that it is not decent enough to get married and have children without following the traditional steps.
Gu Yun's actions and attitude have directly boosted his reputation. Now he is not only decent, but Hua Guoqiang is already thinking about returning to Star City to host a banquet, and he has to think carefully about which guests to invite.
Too much dignity makes it seem a bit high-profile.
If all my colleagues and friends are invited to attend the wedding, will my son-in-law not be able to make headlines the next day just because of his behavior?
If the whole family is in the system and the situation is like this, will they still be able to work in the future?
"He didn't say anything to you, did he?"
Hua Shiyuan's snow-white calves rested on Gu Yun's belly, and her ten delicate toes were covered with rose-red nail polish, which looked particularly dazzling in the summer sun.
"Don't worry, we just talked about the bride price."
Gu Yun pinched Hua Shiyuan's delicate ankle, looked at the quiet kitchen, and rubbed it quietly.
"Really or not, how can he still ask for a betrothal gift from you?"
Hua Shiyuan chuckled, her eyes curved into a beautiful crescent moon.
Having taken root in grassroots work, she has dealt with many bride price disputes.
In her heart, her old father, who had always been open-minded and believed in true love first, could do this!
"I mentioned it first."
Gu Yun tapped the tip of Hua Shiyuan's nose and continued to add: "My wife is almost running away with the ball. Can you not give me a gift to comfort my second wife?"
"Hahahahaha..."
Hua Shiyuan leaned on Gu Yun's shoulder and laughed.
"And money is just a number to me now. I just want to take this opportunity to make my uncle and aunt live more comfortably, and we ourselves will be happy, don't you think so?"
Gu Yun stretched out his hand and combed his lover's short hair that had slipped out from his temples back behind his ears, with a gentle look on his face.
"Um!"
Hua Shiyuan narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.
It is only natural for men to spend money on their parents!
What's more, from a consumption perspective, he simply can't spend all his money.
Besides, if he didn't give flowers to his parents, he might spend a lot of money on some little green tea!
Hua Shiyuan has always been a girl with almost no material desires.
Like Wen Ju, she doesn't purchase big-name luxury goods in season, and she doesn't do any research on cars or real estate.
She was a little embarrassed when she took over the Donghu Tianyue real estate.
But after getting along with Gu Yun for a long time, she slowly discovered that transitioning from frugality to luxury is really as easy as eating and drinking.
Wen Jue always swiped her credit card generously and showed off her power in front of her.
Even Shen Qingcheng and Cheng Yingying were not merciless in spending Gu Yun's money.
Compared with others, I have to pay attention to the impact within the system, and my consumption is the lowest anyway. Why do I save three melons and two dates?
After figuring it out, Hua Shiyuan also gave up the restraints of Xiaojiabiyu, and went shopping with her sisters without a lot of psychological pressure.
Now that he learned that Gu Yun had given his parents a large sum of money as a gift, he had no intention of refusing it politely.
There’s nothing wrong with paying filial piety to your baby’s grandparents, right?
