She knew very well that the relationship between Xiaodang and her was very bad because of the past events. She was not qualified to educate Xiaodang. The only way was to label Xiaodang as unfilial in advance.
Although it is said that we don’t follow the old rules now.
But honoring your parents is a matter of course.
Anyone who dares to spread the word about being unfilial will definitely be laughed at by others.
in addition.
If the leaders in the textile factory knew that Xiao Dang was unfilial, they would also fire him.
In this case, Xiaodang must be at ease.
really.
After hearing Qin Huairu's words, Xiaodang was immediately speechless.
She stood there angrily and could only roll her eyes.
Qin Huairu then said: "Xiaodang, actually the reason why I came to you today is not to ruin the marriage between you and Yan Jiefang."
Xiaodang looked at Qin Huairu in disbelief: "So you agree to my marriage to Yan Jiefang?"
Seeing Qin Huairu nodding, she felt something was wrong, because this was not Qin Huairu's style at all.
Sure enough, Qin Huairu continued: "Xiaodang, you may already know that Yan Bugui came to my house to ask for compensation."
Hearing this sentence, Xiaodang understood.
"Mom, do you mean that as long as Yan Bugui doesn't pay compensation, you will agree to my marrying Yan Jiefang?"
At this time, Qin Huairu wanted to say something, but Jia Zhang was the first to say: "You kid is really stupid. How can there be no need for wedding gifts? As long as Yan Bugui doesn't ask for compensation from our family, then let him pay two hundred yuan."
If you pay the bride price, your mother and I will agree to your marriage."
Hearing this, Xiaodang immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
This family is really unprofitable and can't afford it early.
In this day and age, the so-called betrothal gift for most people is only three to five yuan. If the family is poorer, there is no betrothal gift at all, just two pounds of pork.
The Jia family's compensation, including the two hundred yuan, adds up to two hundred and eighty yuan.
If word spreads, others might think that this is the marriage of a daughter from the prince's family.
Xiaodang said with a cold face: "You are thinking too much. It's two hundred and eighty yuan. If this spreads out, wouldn't I become a blackmailer?"
Jia Zhang said with a cold face: "Oh, why are you so stupid, Xiaodang? These two hundred and eighty yuan are not for our family. We are just keeping it for you temporarily.
After you get married, we will return all the money to you.
You also know that Yan Bugui is such a stingy person.
Even if you marry Yan Jiefang, their family will not buy you anything good."
Of course Xiaodang didn't believe that Jia Zhang would return the money to him for no reason.
In her opinion, after Jia Zhang holds the money in her hand, even if the gods come, it will be difficult to get it out.
But what Jia Zhang said about Yan Bugui's family was not wrong.
Seeing that Xiaodang was hesitant to apply, Qin Huairu continued: "Xiaodang, don't forget. Yan Jiefang is only the second child. There is another Yan Jiecheng in the Yan family. Now that Huang Yanling is pregnant, the Yan family's property will definitely be left to Yan Jiecheng in the future.
.
By then, you and Yan Jiefang won't be able to get much property from the Yan family at all?
If you don't take advantage of the opportunity to get married, you'll give Yanbu a lot of money.
By the time Yan Bugui kicks you two out of the house, it will be too late for you two to cry.
It’s for your own good.”
Qin Huairu's words hit Xiaodang's weakness.
A while ago, the reason why Yan Jiefang moved to a factory dormitory was because the Yan Bugui family preferred their eldest son and daughter-in-law.
In fact, Yan Jiefang is now separated from the Yan family. Even if he does not want the money, the money will not be distributed to Yan Jiefang in the future.
When Qin Huairu saw Xiaodang's look, she knew that this girl was moved.
"Xiao Dang, you don't know the situation of our family. Your brother is not married yet and needs a lot of money.
What will happen to our family if you don't help us any more?
I know what your brother does is sometimes outrageous.
But he is your brother after all.
When you were young, our family was poor and couldn't afford good food, but your brother always brought you food."
Although Xiaodang complained a lot about Banggeng, she was very grateful to Banggeng for one thing, that is, when they were still very young, Banggeng, as the older brother, often went around looking for good things.
At that time, Bangge often thought about their two younger sisters.
This is also the real reason why Xiaodang did not completely side with Yan Jiefang when he had a conflict with Bang Gang.
Xiaodang thought for a moment and said: "Mom, I can't make the decision on this matter. I have to discuss it with Yan Jiefang. After all, I don't want to embarrass him."
"I understand, I understand, you are a good boy." Qin Huairu said with a smile: "I will help you prepare the dowry when I get back now."
Ms. Jia Zhang wanted to talk endlessly, but Qin Huairu grabbed her arm and turned away.
After leaving the gate, Mrs. Jia Zhang said coldly: "Qin Huairu, look at Xiaodang, but it's getting more and more outrageous. We elders are actually begging him now. Don't you understand? We are here for him.
good."
Qin Huairu stopped and said, "Jia Zhang, there are only two of us here. Don't talk like this here."
"In addition, even if Xiaodang brought a gift of two hundred yuan this time, I can't give this money to you. I will spend 10 yuan to buy a dowry for Xiaodang, and the remaining money will be used as our next month's gift.
living expenses.”
"My hard work has been in vain." Jia Zhang was a little unhappy, but he also knew that Xiao Dang almost hated him based on the things he had done in the past.
If he was the only one who came forward, Xiaodang would never agree to this matter.
In addition, as long as the money reaches Jia's house, he will always have a way to get it.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Although Xiaodang is just a little girl, she is my granddaughter after all. I also want to see her get married in a glorious way. Don't worry about this."
The two of them talked and walked towards the courtyard.
Xiao Dang returned to the workshop and worked until after work at noon before rushing back to the courtyard.
She met Li Donglai at the gate.
Xiaodang hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to say hello and said, "Master, are you off work?"
Li Donglai nodded, looked at Xiaodang and said, "Xiaodang, haven't you been living in a textile factory recently? Why are you back today?"
"Here's the thing, Master. You may have heard that Yan Jiefang and I are now talking about a partner. My mother has agreed to it now, but she has a request..."
Xiaodang told the story in detail.
Li Donglai burst into laughter after hearing this.
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang are becoming more and more greedy.
A betrothal gift of two hundred and eighty yuan would be regarded as a sky-high price even in future generations.
Li Donglai looked at Xiaodang and asked, "Xiaodang, what do you think?"
"My mother said that even if I don't want the money, Yan Jiecheng will take it away, so I agreed."
After Xiaodang finished speaking, he looked at Li Donglai timidly: "Master, did I do something wrong?"
The reason why she stopped Li Donglai today was because she had some hesitation in her heart.
Li Donglai also knew that Xiaodang had been persuaded by Qin Huairu, and there was nothing he could do to stop him even if he wanted to.
If you want to solve the problem of sky-high betrothal gifts, you need to find another way.
He smiled and said: "You decide your own affairs. My little sister is back, I have to go back quickly now."
After speaking, Li Donglai turned around and walked to the backyard.
Before she reached the door of her house, Li Xiaomei heard footsteps and ran out of the house.
She did not rush up and hug Li Donglai's neck like before.
Instead, he stood there and said with a smile: "Brother, are you back?"
This little girl has really grown up. Li Donglai said with a smile on his face: "How is it? Is it hard on the road?"
"What's so hard about it? My classmates all sit on hard seats. They even bought me a sleeper ticket. How can I have such hard work?" Li Xiaomei said with a smile.
The two were standing outside chatting when Ding Qiunan came out of the house and shouted outside: "The food is ready, you two come in and eat quickly."
"Let's go, little sister, let's try your sister-in-law's cooking at noon today."
Entering the house and looking at a large table of dishes, Li Donglai exclaimed: "Daughter-in-law, when my little sister was not at home, you were like cabbage and radish. Now as soon as my little sister comes back, you have cooked such a big table of dishes."
.”
Ding Qiunan said with a smile: "What's the matter, are you still competing with my little sister for favor?"
Li Xiaomei also said: "Yes, brother, my sister-in-law is the closest to me, you have to step aside."
Yes, the little sister formed a strategic alliance with Ding Qiunan as soon as she came back, but she is still retreating. A good man will not suffer the immediate disadvantages.
Li Donglai sat on the chair and picked up his chopsticks to eat, when there was a noise outside the door.
"I heard that my little sister is back."
Silly Zhu and Yu Juhua walked in from outside with Little Lotus.
Li Xiaomei greeted warmly: "Brother Silly Zhu, sister-in-law Daihua. We haven't seen each other for several months, and you seem to be young again."
When he said this, he hugged the little lotus and said, "The little lotus has grown into a big girl now."
Shazhu saw Li Xiaomei's appearance and praised her repeatedly: "My little sister has only been out for half a year, and she is much more mature than before."
Yu Juhua smiled and said, "My little sister is now a female warrior."
After a few chats, Li Donglai asked Ding Qiunan to add two pairs of chopsticks and invited Shazhu and Yu Juhua to have dinner at home.
After finishing the meal, several lesbians were clearing away the dishes in the kitchen. Li Donglai took out a cigarette and handed it to Silly Zhu: "Silly Zhu, have you heard about Xiaodang and Yan Jiefang?"
"I heard about it. Yesterday, Yan Bugui and the third aunt went to each house to cause trouble, and I was the one who negotiated peace. If I hadn't handled the matter fairly and fairly, our two families would have had to fight."
After explaining the complete process to Shazhu, Li Donglai finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
When Sha Zhu saw Li Donglai, he frowned slightly and asked quickly: "Brother Donglai, is something wrong?"
Li Donglai told the Jia family about the betrothal gifts they wanted.
When Si Zhu heard that the Jia family asked for two hundred and eighty yuan, he was furious.
"This Qin Huairu is really going too far. Has she forgotten that the higher-ups now require diligence and frugality? If every household behaves like her, who of the boys in our compound can afford a wife?"
Li Donglai looked at Shazhu and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, Shazhu."
"Don't worry, brother Donglai. I will definitely handle this matter properly. I will never let Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu succeed." Silly Zhu assured, patting his chest.
In fact, Li Donglai was not busy these two days, and it was easy to solve the Jia family's affairs.
The reason why he handed this matter over to Silly Zhu was because he wanted to take the opportunity to train Silly Zhu.
As the scale of the steel rolling mill laboratory becomes larger and larger, Li Donglai is also preparing to launch some more advanced projects.
He will definitely be very busy by then and will not be able to take care of the affairs in the courtyard at all, so these matters will be entrusted to Shazhu.
Silly Zhu felt that he was valued by Li Donglai and wanted to prove himself.
After eating, I got home and started thinking about how to solve this problem.
At this time, Xiaodang had arrived at Yan Bugui's home.
Yan Bugui, the third aunt, Yan Jiecheng, and Huang Yanling were eating. When they saw Xiaodang coming in, Huang Yanling's face suddenly darkened.
Yan Jiecheng's face didn't look good either. After all, Yan Jiefang was injured because of Xiaodang.
The third aunt took the initiative to stop, stood up and said hello: "Oh, isn't this Xiaodang? Why are you here today?"
Xiaodang put the apple in his hand on the table and said with a smile: "Third aunt, let me see Yan Jiefang."
"You came here, why did you bring a gift? This is not someone else's home." Yan Bugui saw the gift Xiaodang brought, and now a smile appeared on his face.
The third aunt said: "Yan Jiefang is eating in the house. Isn't he injured? I was afraid that it would affect his injury when he got up, so I brought him the meal to the bed."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Saying this, the third aunt led Xiao Dang to the door of Yan Jiefang's room. He knocked lightly on the door twice and shouted: "Jiefang
, Xiaodang came to visit you."
A response came from inside the house.
The third aunt opened the door and let Xiaodang into the house. Then she said with a smile: "You two children will chat slowly. I have to go back for dinner."
She wisely closed the door when she left.
Yan Jiefang didn't expect that Xiaodang would come to visit him, so he quickly put down the dishes, picked up a towel, wiped his mouth, and jumped out of bed.
"Xiao, the little pawn house is a little messy. Don't mind it."
He hurriedly sorted out the messy things in the house.
Xiaodang stopped him: "You are injured and your body is not well yet. Let me do these things."
"I'm so sorry. You are a guest. How could I let you do these things?"
"What kind of guest? Have you forgotten? You have already proposed to me." Xiao Dang said with a smile while sorting out Yan Jiefang's dirty clothes.
Looking at Xiaodang who was as busy as a wife and a virtuous mother, Yan Jiecheng was completely shocked.
He sat down on the bed and said in disbelief: "Xiao Dang, have you finally agreed to marry me?"
Yan Jiefang felt like the happiest man in the world.
It's just that Xiaodang didn't answer Yan Jiefang immediately. Instead, he spent ten minutes arranging the dirty clothes and books in his room neatly before sitting next to the bed.
Looking at Yan Jiefang with a serious expression: "Yan Jiefang, I have already thought about it and decided to marry you."
When Yan Jiecheng heard this, he almost jumped up with excitement.
At this time, Xiaodang said again: "Yan Jiefang, don't be happy too early. There is still one condition before I marry you."
