Jiang Mu frowned and asked in surprise: "Dad, where did you hear this term?"
Jiang Mu knows better than anyone what kind of virtue Jiang Yong is.
With the level of education he and Zhao Haiqin had, it was impossible to come up with the term Engel coefficient.
Jiang Yong smiled and said: "Your mother and I met Jiang Xiu's boyfriend today. We are quite satisfied with the boyfriend she found. But her boyfriend seems to have very good conditions. When it comes to marriage, The other party suddenly said that he wants us to go back and study the Engel coefficient, and then he can explain it to his family. Your mother and I are not very educated, so we don’t know what the Engel coefficient is, so I came to ask you."
Jiang Mu was shocked: "What did you say? Jiang Xiu had a boyfriend? Why didn't I, the elder sister, know?"
"You are busy being your factory director all day, when have you ever cared about your sister? Do you know where Jiang Xiu and her boyfriend live now? They live in a luxurious community like Fengyun Jiangshan, where there is a house It costs hundreds of thousands."
"???"
Jiang Mu's mind was filled with questions.
Doesn’t Jiang Xiu live with them every day?
Where did the boyfriend come from?
Still living together, how is this possible?
Jiang Mu felt that there must be something fishy going on here, and he must ask this girl Jiang Xiu when he got back.
"Jiang Mu, you have a high level of education. Please tell us quickly, what exactly is the Engel coefficient?"
"The Engel coefficient is...the proportion of a family's total food expenditure to total personal consumption expenditure..."
Jiang Yong frowned and said, "I don't understand, what do you mean?"
"Actually, we can judge a family's financial situation based on the proportion of food you usually buy in your expenditure."
"It means that the other party wants to see what the living conditions of our family are like?"
"That's probably what it means. Generally, the larger the proportion, the poorer the family's economic conditions. On the contrary, the smaller the proportion, the richer the family's economic conditions."
"This guy is actually being mean to us. If you want to ask for conditions, just say it directly. Why do you need to do this? Rich people are so dishonest."
Hearing Jiang Yong's insults, Jiang Mu even felt that he was scolding her.
She has never disclosed her and Xia Ye's current financial situation to Jiang Yong and Zhao Haiqin because she knows Jiang Yong and Zhao Haiqin too well.
She didn't dare to tell the truth at all, otherwise the old couple might do something wrong.
Jiang Yong said depressedly on the other end of the phone: "Jiang Mu, your mother and I both know that now you and Xia Ye's conditions are getting better and better, and Xia Ye has become the richest man in Longcheng City. You don't have to follow I have hidden your financial situation. Your mother and I will not disturb your lives. Your mother and I were the ones who were sorry for you in the past. Now we apologize to you properly."
Jiang Mu paused on the other end of the phone and said with a wry smile: "Dad, it's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. Don't worry about Xiuxiu's marriage. She is not young anymore. She can make her own decisions. .”
"I know, you must think that based on our family's conditions, Xiuxiu is not worthy of her boyfriend, but doesn't Xiuxiu have sisters and brothers-in-law like you and Xia Ye? With such flesh and blood family ties, how can she be worthy of their wealth? There are more than enough people. You are Xiuxiu's sister, please help us persuade Xiuxiu to get married early while she is young, instead of waiting until she is older and it will be difficult for her to get married. "
Jiang Mu frowned and said, "Are you really doing this for Xiu Xiu's benefit, or do you want to help Jiang Ping save money for her wedding with the gifts that Xiu Xiu received from her marriage?"
"Of course we hope that Xiuxiu will live well! Your mother and I have both figured it out. It doesn't matter whether we have money or not. What's important is that we are all a family and have this kind of flesh and blood relationship!"
This was rare for Jiang Mu to hear Jiang Yong speak so sincerely.
Today, Jiang Yong is like a prodigal son who has suddenly turned back, as if he has finally woken up after experiencing so many things and begins to think about the family ties that connect bones and tendons.
"Dad, as long as you have this childlike heart, you and my mother don't have to worry about Jiang Xiu's affairs. I can take care of it for him. You and my mother can enjoy themselves at home. Xia and I Ye is not a heartless person. We will do our best to fulfill our obligation to support you. I hope you won’t worry too much about other things. So be it, I’m done..."
Toot toot…
Listening to the busy signal on the other end of the phone, Jiang Yong hesitated for a long time before putting down the phone.
"Old man, what did Jiang Mu say?"
Jiang Yong smiled bitterly and said: "We were fooled by that rich boy. In fact, they just want to know what our family's economic conditions are! You said that our family's economic conditions are considered poverty in the eyes of these rich people. Is it a family? Do they like it?"
Zhao Haiqin glared and said: "Then we, Jiang Xiu, have a richest brother-in-law. I don't believe that kid's family doesn't even give him this little face. What do you think it would be like if Jiang Xiu could marry that kid?" I can live in such a big house. The house has five rooms, one room for us, one room for Jiang Xiu and my son-in-law, one room for their children in the future, one room for our family, and the remaining one room can still be used. It would be great to use it as a guest room until Jiang Mu and the others come over when they have time, or when the kid's parents come over and have a place to stay!"
"Old lady, I think so too, but there are so many rules for rich people to marry, so we can't do anything about it."
Zhao Haiqin said unwillingly: "No! We must implement this matter. How about I call Xiuxiu and give her some advice, so that she can quickly cook a meal with others, and she can only get pregnant with a baby?" , I still don’t believe this kid doesn’t recognize it!”
"Old lady, I think you are on to the point. If our Jiang Xiu is pregnant, this kid will definitely have to admit it. What will he care about Engel's coefficient then? Call Jiang Xiu quickly."
"No, let's fight tomorrow while that girl Jiang Xiu is at work. Otherwise, if that kid hears about our plan, we have to be on guard."
"Then I'll call Pingping now and tell him the good news."
Jiang Yong dialed Jiang Ping's phone number.
"Ping Ping, let me tell you good news. Your wedding money will soon be available to our family."
Jiang Ping asked in surprise: "Dad, what's going on? Where did you get rich?"
"It was your sister Jiang Xiu who really found a rich husband for our family. Your mother and I met today. We live in a very big house, several hundred square meters."
Jiang Ping said with shock on his face: "Did that girl Jiang Xiu really catch a golden turtle husband? She doesn't even have an academic diploma, she..."
"Don't look down on Jiang Xiu. He has obtained a college diploma through self-study."
