I think when two people come together and get married, the essence is that they form a team to fight monsters and level up. However, many people only value good equipment. Once they enter the game of life, they realize that they may be matched with pig teammates. You still need to be strong to make iron. Even if you get an airdrop weapon, it can only have the effect of a fire stick.
Since it is a game, no one wants to bring a rookie who is evenly matched and evenly matched. Only by matching him can we fight against the dangers of this world and see through the scenery at the same time.
Lin Feifei was deeply poisoned by her original family. Money was not the first priority in her heart. Otherwise, she would have gotten married long ago on her terms.
Involving the betrothal gift is actually a test for both of us. Several couples around me broke down because of the betrothal gift. Fortunately, we are highly consistent in our three views, which prevented conflicts among the people.
Mejia Deng and I mentioned Chen Liquan just to see if she wanted to curry favor with Chen Liquan. Even though Chen Liquan had a confused head, he was wrapped in silver. People who didn't know thought he was a true god.
Deng Meijia is all about money and wealth. If I can't provide her with any benefits, she will just look at me with disdain and kick me away. And I felt like she wanted to blackmail me into bringing her goods with the bride price, so I took the initiative and sacrificed the mascot of the old fox.
I awkwardly mentioned the bride price, and Deng Meijia was suddenly speechless. She was silent for a while and laughed a few times.
"Don't worry about the bride price, we'll talk about it later! Let's talk about cooperation first."
I chuckled, she wanted to use this trick to fool me again, and then it wouldn't be her anymore.
The betrothal gift was actually just to ensure security after marriage, but unexpectedly it turned into an obstacle. What's more, for a family like ours, 300,000 yuan is already the upper limit of the betrothal gift.
I have always felt that love should not be linked to interests, but this kind of simple beauty seems to only exist in school.
I regained my composure and shook my head, "I think it's better for me to talk to you about the bride price! My parents are very angry, so let's communicate first, and then I'll go back and talk to them."
Deng Meijia sighed, "Then tell me, how much can your family afford?"
I pondered for a moment and expressed my expectation: "Fifteen?"
Deng Meijia laughed angrily, snorted angrily, and deliberately taunted me: "Good guy, you cut half of it for me, do you think it's possible? If you don't have money, don't marry my daughter. You can afford it and raise it." I'm sorry."
I know very well who she is. I hear it with my left ear and hear it with my right ear. After drifting to Beijing for so many years, I have long developed an indestructible heart. What she said is of no use to me.
I smiled and said, "Auntie, let's solve the problem! If my family has tens of millions, three hundred thousand is just a formality. You also know the conditions of our family, three hundred thousand is a bit overwhelming."
"Don't call me realistic, let me ask you, will you continue to rent a house here after you get married? What will you do if you have a child? Will you continue to rent a house with the child? Then when the child goes to elementary school, will your family go back to that small county together?"
What Deng Meijia is talking about this time is reality. This is indeed what I will face in the future. I feel that the wheels of reality are rolling over me, and I feel like a mayfly shaking a tree. But as the saying goes, it is difficult to pass the test. Over the years, I have passed one level after another. I have to look at the world from a developmental perspective. I cannot use the present to judge future achievements.
"Why don't you speak? You don't know what to say?" Deng Meijia continued to be aggressive.
I didn't answer but asked: "Can you help us take care of the children in the future?"
Deng Meijia was stunned for a moment and muttered: "How can I take care of your children? I run my own company, so I want to take care of my children to your mother."
I wasn't annoyed and smiled, "That's fine. You don't have to take care of the child, so don't worry about us."
"..."
Deng Meijia was rarely speechless, so I continued:
"I would rather suffer a little and be tired than let my wife and children suffer and be tired after me. You don't have to worry about this. You also know that a gift of 300,000 yuan is unrealistic. If you really want to solve the problem, , Feifei has made up her mind to be with me, so you move out the bride price
Come on, it's no use. "
I spoke loudly, and there was silence in the carriage, like a forgotten corner, all sounds disappeared. I watched the scenery flash past my eyes, waiting for Deng Meijia to speak.
After a while, she suddenly sighed as if she had given up. The sound was like a tired breeze, drifting through the afternoon heat wave with helplessness.
"150,000 won't work, 180,000! But I have a condition."
"You say."
There was a hint of smile in her voice, "Please help me introduce Chen Liquan! He is a big boss, maybe I can cooperate with him in the future!"
Could it be that I was pretending: "You are a food maker and you are a clothes seller, what is the connection between you?"
"That's hard to say. He has a lot of connections! Even if we have just some interactions, that's fine! I can lower the standard of the bride price to 180,000 yuan for you. How about you help me introduce him?"
The corner of my mouth curled up, "Then you can send me the specific amount of the betrothal gift in the form of a message, and I will leave a written record."
Deng Meijia snorted, "You don't believe me?"
"I believed it."
"..."
There is no way, her credibility is too low. If I don't leave some evidence, I really can't believe her.
Soon, my cell phone rang, and Deng Meijia seemed to have a hint of impatience in her tone, "Is this all right?"
"Okay, okay, I'll forward Mr. Chen's WeChat account to you later, and you can just ask me to add you."
"You kid, please don't touch me."
"No, no."
I sent Deng Meijia to the high-speed rail station. Before we parted, he repeatedly told me not to forget to say a few kind words in front of Chen Liquan. I agreed, but I was overjoyed in my heart. Of course I would recommend Chen Liquan to her. But actually it might be better if my name is not mentioned.
When driving to the company, I was still thinking about the bride price. 180,000 yuan is still a huge sum of money for our family. I silently calculated in my mind that I can now earn an average of 300,000 yuan a year. If I work hard and have the right time and place, it is not impossible to save 180,000 yuan a year.
I don't plan to ask my parents to help me pay for this gift. The 100,000 my family can afford is already saved by their frugality.
It's not easy for them to save some money. How could I bear to let them spend all their savings over the years just to get married to me.
There is indeed a huge gap between our two families, but as long as I work hard, this gap will continue to be shortened.
When Lin Feifei and I first met, I was still unemployed, but now my monthly salary has long exceeded hers. In addition to my parents, I have used practical actions to shut down many people around me who dislike us. Mouth.
