After the divorce, I became a rich girl

"Besides, my parents are very open-minded. They always say that as long as I am happy, it doesn't matter if the man doesn't pay the bride price."

As soon as Zhou Dan finished speaking, Li Jiawei couldn't help laughing and reached out to gently touch her forehead: "What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle and auntie are saying this because they love you.

The wedding doesn’t have to be grand, but the bride price cannot be reduced.

Is the betrothal gift not just a formality? Although the relationship between you and Shiwen cannot be measured by the amount of the betrothal gift, this betrothal gift represents Shiwen's commitment and respect for you, and it is also the sincerity of the two families in getting married.

Accepting this gift is both a sign of respect for the marriage and proof that you will be the daughter-in-law of the Li family in the future."

Zhou Dan's brain, which was usually very sharp at work, was dazed at this moment.

As an only child, she has been pampered by her parents since she was a child. Her family has few relatives and she only attends weddings with gifts and eats with them. She has never paid attention to these details.

The tricks hidden in the red envelopes and etiquette were completely unfamiliar to her. After Li Jiawei explained it, she felt her head was in a mess and her eyes were full of confusion: "It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to when getting married..."

Li Jiawei couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the confused looks on the faces of the two people in front of her.

God is fair. He has given them extraordinary IQ and EQ, but has left them so ignorant about worldly rules.

She waved her hand helplessly at Zhou Dan, her tone gentle but unyielding: "You must go back and ask your uncle and aunt for their opinions on this matter." She raised her wrist to check her watch, then turned to Li Shiwen and told him, "It's getting late, you should send Zhou Dan home first. I'm afraid she will have to explain things to her family tonight."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dan immediately lowered his head, hugged Li Jiawei's arm pitifully, and pleaded pitifully: "Jiawei, can I not go back today? I really don't dare to face my parents..."

Li Jiawei raised her eyebrows, a teasing sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she slapped the two marriage certificates into Zhou Dan's palms neatly: "What do you think?"

Zhou Dan stared at the marriage certificate with a gold-stamped cover, and shrank her fingers as if they were burned. Finally, she sighed heavily, straightened her back and stood up, with a look of determination in her eyes: "I'm going to be scolded anyway, so I'm just going to give it up today!"

After the two figures disappeared outside the gate of Li Garden, Li Jiawei looked at the empty living room and instantly lost the desire to go to the company.

She paced to the yard where she lived, came to the locker room, and turned the combination lock of the safe.

She was not too worried about the betrothal gift. Before her death, her grandmother had specially left a generous amount of money for Li Shiwen to marry a wife. Moreover, her uncle only had Shiwen as his son. Even if he had been an upright official all his life, the wealth he had accumulated over the years was not a small amount, and he would definitely not let Zhou Dan down.

Li Jiawei took down the velvet jewelry box from the top layer of the safe, and the gilded lock glowed coldly under the light.

She spread out the jade bracelet, diamond necklace and pearl earrings on the velvet cloth one by one, and stroked the flowing pearl light with her fingertips.

Li Jiawei could only give these valuable jewellery to Li Shiwen and Zhou Dan on their wedding day. If she gave them on other days, she was afraid that Li Shiwen and Zhou Dan would not accept them.

Li Shiwen and Zhou Dan both plan to pursue a career in politics in the future. Although their grandmother left some assets to Li Shiwen when she passed away, compared to other people in the Li family, Li Shiwen has the least assets.

Therefore, the several sets of jewelry selected by Li Jiawei are the best among her jewelry. Zhou Dan probably has no occasion or time to wear these jewelry, but they can be regarded as her private property or left to their children.

At two o'clock in the morning, the Xishi Airport was filled with cold white light. Li Shiwen and Li Jiawei picked up Li Hongxing from the VIP channel.

His face looked tired but with a smile on it. He walked straight to Li Shiwen, raised his hand to ruffle his hair, and said with a hearty smile: "Good fellow! You have settled your lifelong event so quickly. You are worthy of being my son. You are as bold and daring as I was when I was young!"

Li Jiawei looked at the similar eyebrows and eyes of the father and son and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Her memory was instantly brought back to the past by her uncle's teasing. When she first returned to the Li family, her grandmother often pulled her aside to chat about family matters and mentioned the "heroic deeds" of her uncle and aunt.

When Li Hongxing was young, he was a person who acted first and reported later. He got a marriage certificate with his aunt-in-law without consulting his family. As a result, he was chased by his father-in-law across two blocks and became the talk of the neighbors for a while.

It was not until the next morning that Li Ronghua and Jing Qiu learned that their elder brother Li Hongxing had returned to Xishi.

The two of them rushed to Li Garden without even having breakfast, feeling nervous all the way.

There have been constant turmoil in the family during this period, especially after Xuanbao's sentencing was exposed by the media.

In addition, there is the matter of Jing Qiu taking "Meishang" from Li Jiawei and handing it over to Li Yan. Given the love that the eldest brother has for Jiawei, he will definitely have some opinions about them.

Li Ronghua and Jing Qiu knew that they could not hide these things at home from their eldest brother.

On the way to Li Garden, the two men's hearts were always in their throats. Jing Qiu kept turning the jade bracelet on his wrist, while Li Ronghua looked out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

However, when they arrived at Li Garden, they found that their eldest brother did not mention anything about what had happened at home during this period, but only talked about Li Shiwen's marriage.

After hearing the whole story, Li Ronghua's tense nerves instantly relaxed and he couldn't help laughing a few times.

He looked at Li Shiwen and teased, "You kid, getting married is such a big deal, but you got the certificate without even saying hello. When you go to the girl's house later, her parents will scold you!"

Li Ronghua smiled and patted Li Shiwen on the shoulder, then turned to look at Li Hongxing and asked curiously, "Brother, which girl is this that made Shiwen so decisive to get the marriage certificate?"

Li Hongxing picked up the teacup and took a sip. He said with satisfaction, "She is a colleague from Shiwen and works in the city's disciplinary inspection department. Coincidentally, this girl is also Jiawei's friend. Her name is Zhou Dan."

"Zhou Dan?" Jing Qiu's gaze unconsciously fell on Li Jiawei opposite him, and the atmosphere suddenly became subtle. This was the first time the two had met since the "Meishang" magazine incident.

Li Jiawei smiled at Jing Qiu's complicated look when he looked at her: "You should have an impression. Zhou Dan also attended the party held at home before."

Hearing what Li Jiawei said, Jing Qiu seemed to remember something and frowned slightly. If they were not of the same name, this girl named Zhou Dan had dated the prefect.

Although Zhou Dan and He Zhizhou had not been together for a long time, they did not hide their relationship, so their relatives and friends all knew about it.
