The eldest son Su also followed suit to persuade the mother, and finally the mother had no choice but to agree with what her children said. After all, her daughter didn't want to go, her son was still in school, and she was the only one in the family who could go out to work.

Perhaps because the Zhang family felt guilty, the work of the female workers in the textile factory was changed to work in the kitchen, and they just helped to serve the dishes. When it was busy, they helped to light the fire and prepare the dishes. The rest of the time, they had nothing to do. Their wages were even higher than those of the female workers in the textile factory.

Working in the kitchen is lucrative. First, you can fill your stomach, and then you can take advantage of the canteen's crackdown and buy things at discounted prices.

Su Qingqing's eyes turned red with jealousy. She wanted to go and argue with them, but her reputation was ruined. She could only wait until Zhang Peng married her and then ask him to provide her with another job, and it had to be better than the previous one.

Zhang Peng was unwilling to marry Su Qingqing, but if he didn't, he would be accused of having an affair, and his path to success would be cut short.

When she learned that Zhang Peng was coming to propose marriage, Aunt Su was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She thought that since the other party could come up with 200 yuan in compensation, he must be able to come up with a 200 yuan betrothal gift.

Zhang Peng smiled coldly. He couldn't deal with Su Tong, so could he not deal with Su Qingqing?

"I have no money, you can marry or not." Zhang Peng spread his hands, "Anyway, no one else will want your daughter except me, otherwise you can stay at home and be an old maid. Even if it takes a long time, I can still get married and have children, but what about your daughter?"

Second Aunt Su was so angry that she jumped up and down. "You bastard, you hooked up with my girl, and now you don't want to take responsibility. I tell you, the 200 yuan betrothal gift can't be less than a penny, otherwise I will go to the factory to sue you."

"What are you suing me for? That's really funny. It was you who wanted to date me. And it's not that I don't want to get married. It's that the betrothal gift you asked for is too much and I can't afford it, so I can't get married.

Anyway, let's just put it off like this. When I have saved enough money, I will marry your daughter."

After Zhang Peng said this, his expression changed instantly. He waved his sleeves, turned around and prepared to leave.

Su Qingqing was hiding in the house and eavesdropping, because the woman was embarrassed to show up when discussing marriage, not to mention that it involved the issue of bride price. As a result, when she heard that the marriage was broken off, Su Qingqing could no longer sit still and rushed out.

"Zhang Peng, what do you mean? Your family can afford 200 yuan in compensation, but can't they afford 200 yuan in betrothal gifts? I am a virgin, and I have given up my reputation to be with you. Is this how you treat me?"

Su Qingqing burst into tears while talking. "Besides, your monthly salary is only 40 yuan. This 200 yuan is less than half a year's salary. Even if you give it to me as a betrothal gift, what's the big deal? Am I not worth this 200 yuan?"

"Do you think you're worth it?" Zhang Peng asked back directly, "Don't blame me for being harsh, a decent girl would never get together with her brother-in-law.

Su Qingqing, I'll give you one last chance. If you want to be with me, let's go register now. If you still want the gift, then you can live a good life with your parents."

Aunt Su naturally didn't want the meat in front of her to fly away like this, so she immediately grabbed her daughter's hand and said, "Daughter, don't be confused, this betrothal gift is not only for your brother, but also for you.

If a woman doesn't have some money in her hands, how can she be strong in her husband's family in the future? "

Su Qingqing naturally understood this logic, but she was unwilling to give up this rich son-in-law. She had already done a lot of wrong things for Zhang Peng, so she really didn't want to waste her time. She gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, pushed away Aunt Su's hand, and left with Zhang Peng.

Second Aunt Su was so angry that she was jumping up and down, cursing, but she didn't dare to pull her daughter back, for fear that her daughter would really hurt her hands if she pulled her back.

Su Qingqing naturally had her own reasons for being willing to follow the other party. First of all, the other party was obviously unwilling to give her a dowry. If she continued to force it, it would easily affect their relationship. It would be better for her to go with them. Maybe Zhang Peng would introduce her to a job when he saw how well-behaved and obedient she was. Then she could take Zhang Peng's salary, which would be enough to make up for the fact that she had no dowry.

Su Qingqing's wedding was a bit shabby, and the banquet at her parents' home was also a bit shabby. If it wasn't for collecting gift money, Second Aunt Su would not have been willing to hold this wedding.

Second Aunt Su did not receive any betrothal gift, nor did she buy a dowry for her daughter, and even the man's side did not express anything. In the end, Father Zhang could not stand it anymore. After all, his daughter-in-law represented the face of his family, so he asked someone to make a red dress for her.

Neither party was particularly happy at this wedding. Mother Zhang did not approve of her daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart, so after the couple got married, she sent her daughter-in-law back and told her son not to come back unless he was fine.

After finally getting married, Su Qingqing changed her attitude the next day and demanded that Zhang Peng hand over his salary and find a job for her.

Zhang Peng sneered twice, "I think you are still asleep. Do you know how valuable work is now? You still want to work? I think you are dreaming. You haven't done anything, and you still have the nerve to ask me for money. How can you be so thick-skinned? You can live this life if you want, but otherwise, get out!"

Su Qingqing was so angry that her lungs were about to explode, "What's the matter with the job of the book boy? Are you still obsessed with my cousin?"

"My mother has a connection with your uncle's family, otherwise our two families wouldn't have been engaged, and that job was given to them by my mother.

If you really want a job, go and beg my mom humbly. Maybe if she's in a good mood, she'll find you a job. I don't have that ability anyway."

Su Qingqing sat on the ground in despair. She had not expected such a thing to happen. She had heard before that her uncle's family knew Zhang Peng's family, and she thought they were just bragging.

Su Qingqing shamelessly went to see Zhang's mother, thinking that with her sweet talk, the other party would look at her in a more favorable light.

And now that they are a family, the mother-in-law naturally has to help herself find a stable job, which can also reduce the burden on her son.

Mother Zhang's face changed, and she drove the man out directly. She also stood at the door and said harshly, "Zhang Peng is not my only son. I don't need to rely on you for my old age, and I don't want anything from you. Just live your own life. Otherwise, don't come to me. I don't want to get involved in your mess."

Su Qingqing was so angry that she jumped up and down. "You... I think you are biased. How am I worse than Su Tong? I am prettier than her, and I am more likable than her. I think you are blind."
