A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 61 Marriage
Although Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang were very satisfied in their hearts, they still pretended to be angry.
Several people sat in the main room to negotiate.
"Uncle, I want to discuss something with you. Today's incident is not just my problem. I am willing to compensate Xu Meiling for her loss of one hundred yuan, and keep it a secret and never spread it out. What do you think?" Chen Jianghe said straight to the point.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Can you bully my daughter whenever you want?" Xu Mingshan didn't expect that the other party was still thinking of shirking his debt, so he slammed the table hard, scaring Chen Jianghe.
Chen Jianghe mustered up the courage to hold up two fingers and said, "Two hundred yuan at most. This is all the money I have. Give it all to Meiling. This money can be considered her dowry. We have no feelings for each other and we won't be happy together. She can find a better family in the future."
After these words were spoken, Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang were silent for a moment, but it was only a moment of hesitation.
They can still distinguish between one two hundred yuan bill and many two hundred yuan bills.
If Meiling marries a rural farmer, two hundred yuan would be the maximum amount of dowry, because many people can only save this amount of money in their entire lives.
But Chen Jianghe can easily take out two hundred yuan, and his family is wealthy. If you marry him, you can have many two hundred yuan. Isn't this better?
"Who are you looking down on! Can my daughter's innocence be bought with money?
In a word, marry her or get shot, it's your choice!" Xu Mingshan said sternly with a dark face.
"Alright! You were the ones who insisted on getting married, so don't regret it later!"
Chen Jianghe knew that he couldn't escape today, so he could only accept his fate and agree. He was very unhappy with the coercion from Xu Mingshan and Xu Meiling.
Xu Meiling wants to marry him and live a good life, but that’s impossible. She will suffer in the future!
Xu Meiling had no idea that her lover hated her to death and was still immersed in beautiful fantasies about the future.
Next we will discuss the details of marriage.
It's Liu Guifang's turn to play the bad guy.
"Normally, the wedding should be hosted by the man's family, but you are in a special situation now, so just pick a good day and hold a simple wedding in the village!
First get the marriage certificate, then set up a few tables to have some fun.
It will be inconvenient for you to live in the educated youth camp after you get married, so you might as well build a new house before it freezes. It doesn’t need to be too big, just enough for you to live in. It can be done quickly.
You guys can stay with us for the time being.
Oh, and there's also a betrothal gift, just two hundred yuan as a token of my appreciation." The last sentence is the key.
Liu Guifang acted as if Chen Jianghe had gotten a great advantage, which made Chen Jianghe laugh out of anger.
It seems that they want both money and people, nothing is left out! What a good plan!
When a girl in the village gets married, the dowry is usually just a few dozen yuan, or a hundred yuan at most.
I gave you two hundred before as compensation, there was nothing I could do about it.
She is a country girl, dark, ugly and fat, and she has the nerve to ask for two hundred yuan. It's really too much.
"Xu Meiling is the one who wanted to marry me, but I don't want to marry her at all. I can't pay a penny for the bride price. It's up to you to marry her or not!" Even a clay man still has some temper. This family is really greedy.
Chen Jianghe stood up and prepared to leave.
Xu Meiling quickly grabbed his arm and said, "Brother Jiang He, my mother didn't mean anything else. Don't be angry. Isn't it okay for me not to ask for a betrothal gift?"
Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang almost vomited blood. They had no hope of keeping this girl. Not only did she look like a pig, she was also as stupid as a pig.
In the end, according to Chen Jianghe's wishes, no bride price was asked, but the woman would not give a dowry either.
Chen Jianghe had to pay for their wedding and new home himself, and he reluctantly agreed.
That's how it was settled.
The next morning, the news that Chen Jianghe and Xu Meiling were going to get married spread throughout Xujiatun.
Naturally, this news was spread by Liu Guifang herself.
It is difficult for the Xu family to have news every day, and each piece is more explosive than the last, providing countless gossips for the men, women and children in Xujiatun.
The slicked-back young man Chen Jianghe and the fat and ugly country girl Xu Meiling are from completely different worlds.
Before, when Xu Meiling was chasing after others, everyone just watched it for fun, and no one ever thought that she could really succeed, but things happened so suddenly.
Liu Guifang personally invited everyone to her house for a drink in a few days, how could this be false?
Everyone in the village was wondering what the reason was that made Chen Jianghe willing to marry Xu Meiling.
At this time, the person who wanted to know the reason the most was Jiang Xue.
She got up early in the morning and steamed a bowl of egg custard specially for Chen Jianghe. As soon as she took it out of the pot, she heard the words of several educated youth in the yard.
"Great news! I just went to return something and heard from Aunt Wang that Comrade Chen Jianghe and Comrade Xu Meiling are getting married soon. Is this true?"
"What? That's impossible. How could Chen Jianghe be interested in Xu Meiling?"
"correct."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Xue shouted, standing at the kitchen door with her hands on her hips.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Aunt Wang said that the secretary's wife told her this herself, and she also asked everyone to come to her house for a drink in a couple of days."
Jiang Xue's heart was in turmoil. She couldn't believe it, but was also afraid that it would come true.
Chen Jianghe waited until the egg custard was cold and the other educated youth had gone out to work before he got up with a gloomy face and washed up.
He couldn't sleep in the first half of last night, worrying about how to tell his family about this. He didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night because he couldn't resist the sleepiness.
His parents had warned him many times not to date a rural girl or to start a family in the village. In the past two years, they had helped him arrange to return to the city and get married after he returned.
He was thinking about Gu Qinghuan in his heart. Since he didn't even like Jiang Xue, why would he marry a country girl? Naturally, he didn't take it to heart.
He didn't expect that he would really find a village girl. His family will definitely scold him to death.
"Chen Jianghe, are you really going to marry Xu Meiling?" Jiang Xue couldn't understand why Chen Jianghe wanted to marry Xu Meiling now when he clearly disliked her before.
When Chen Jianghe saw that Jiang Xue already knew about it, he felt a little embarrassed and a little apologetic.
Jiang Xue was very good to him. He had thought about giving Jiang Xue a chance before. His heart had softened. All they needed was an opportunity to break through the window paper and officially start dating.
I didn't expect this to happen now.
However, he did not intend to tell Jiang Xue the truth. Firstly, it would damage his image, and secondly, he did not want to expose the matter to others and let others find fault with him.
"Ah."
"Why? You obviously don't like her! Why her? I admit that I'm not as good as Gu Qinghuan, but Xu Meiling, why should she?" Jiang Xue felt sick when she heard his affirmation and shouted hysterically.
