The betrothal gift is 100,000 yuan, what does it mean to give 200,000
Chapter 498 The Real Rich Son-in-Law
The next morning.
Chen Yuan got up later than the two sisters, but he was the first one to finish packing and wait downstairs. Because the two sisters had to wash their hair and pack their things, they took their time and an hour passed.
He was so bored downstairs that he even started watching his subordinates clocking in one by one in the work group.
It was sunny outside when the two sisters had almost finished cleaning up.
Jiang Ning changed her shoes before Yaoyao came down from upstairs with a "dong dong dong" sound. As it was hot outside, the two sisters were not wearing much. Ningning was wearing a French grey dress that reached about the knees, revealing her slender calves, and the lower part was tightened, which made her look generous and lively.
Jiang Yao was dressed very youthfully, with a baseball cap, a small T-shirt, a short skirt, white socks and sneakers. Chen Yuan had never seen her wear this red baseball cap before, so he guessed it had always been in the cloakroom at home.
"Being a woman is really troublesome." Chen Yuan said to Jiang Yao who was squatting on the ground holding up the heel of her other shoe.
"right?"
"How long would it take just to pick out clothes from a closet full of them?"
"No, I just spent ten minutes picking and matching them briefly, and mainly wasted time washing my hair."
"Then what's the point of wearing a hat after washing your hair, Master Yaoyao? It's just a waste of time."
"No, I wear a hat to block the sun, so I won't get burned to death." Jiang Yao stood up, "Sister, did you bring your lipstick?"
"Bring it."
"Don't tell me you two still need to put on lipstick. You haven't put on lipstick in this room for such a long time."
"Make up for it after you get in the car." Perhaps seeing that Chen Yuan was anxious, Jiang Yao waved her hand.
"Let's go, no more ink."
"Look how anxious you are. Come on, come on. Don't be angry. Be good."
Jiang Yao walked to Chen Yuan, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him gently on the mouth, as if she was coaxing a pet.
How could a mere kiss calm down the bad-tempered Chen Yuan? He still had a sullen face.
Jiang Ning, who was standing by, hesitated for a moment and then came forward.
She also stood on tiptoe and gave Chen Yuan a light kiss on his left cheek.
"I'm not angry anymore."
"hey-hey."
Chen Yuan couldn't hold it back and the corners of his mouth stretched all the way to his back teeth.
He said righteously, "I declare that from now on, no matter which of you is delayed from going out due to makeup, you must give me this kind of compensation, otherwise I will always be angry."
"What a bullshit announcement! You're just daydreaming!"
Jiang Yao rolled her eyes, took her sister's hand and left.
……
"You can't let three people in, two at most, and you're not an immediate family member, so just wait outside."
In the blink of an eye, we were already at the Mingzhu Suburban Detention Center.
In the blink of an eye, we were already at the Mingzhu City Detention Center.
The prison guard on duty stopped Chen Yuan and told him to wait outside.
Chen Yuan didn't mind the prison guard's harsh words at all, because that was the rule of the detention center, so he simply stood outside.
"Then I'll wait for you in the car. I'll just call Xiao Pei back. He just called me." He said to the two sisters.
"Okay, I'll come out after I pick up mom." Jiang Ning nodded.
More than one person came out of the detention center today, and many family members were already waiting in the waiting room. Each of them looked extremely anxious, and they could be said to be waiting impatiently.
The atmosphere is not very good.
Even if they have signed early, the detention center still has to go through the process and release them one by one according to the serial number they received when they were imprisoned.
The two sisters found a place to sit down, their hearts were uneasy, and their eyes were fixed on the door.
Separated by a wall.
Inside the detention center walls.
Jiang Ruxue had already changed her clothes, taking off the ugly and humiliating prison uniform, and now wearing a loose white T-shirt and ordinary jeans. In fact, she had woken up at six o'clock, and she didn't sleep well last night. For a normal person, it is inevitable to be excited when knowing that she will be free tomorrow. As a result, it was already 9:30 in the morning, and she still hadn't left.
The prison guard on duty walked towards that station without even glancing at the few people who were pacing and rubbing their hands in a hurry in the queue.
After a while.
"Stand still!" the prison guard said coldly.
Immediately, everyone stood still and no one dared to move around.
"So far, your criminal detention period has expired, and your family members are waiting outside. During this month, the Mingzhu Suburban Detention Center has implemented normal supervision and education for you under the dual supervision of society and the law. Everyone... I hope that each of you can restrain yourself, turn over a new leaf, and strive to be a good citizen who knows the law and does not violate it after returning to society."
After the square-faced, thick-browed prison guard finished speaking, the person next to him handed him the list.
"Next, the people whose serial numbers and names I read out, please come over to verify your identity, and then go and collect the personal belongings that were in our custody when you came in. Once everyone has collected their belongings, they can be released to meet their families."
Hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
I was filled with emotions for a while.
Before entering the detention center, some of these people were white-collar workers in companies, some were wealthy and respectable self-employed individuals, and some were high-ranking leaders like Jiang Ruxue.
But once in the detention center, everyone is treated equally and no one can escape humiliation.
Because there are all kinds of people in the prison, the identity you have outside is useless here. No one will give you special treatment. In the early days when the prison is strictest, giving money or using connections is useless. You can only endure it and wait until the end of the supervision before you can live a better life.
I believe that after this experience, they will all understand the harshness and ruthlessness of the law and the value of a stable life.
"No. 034, Gao Yonghui..."
"No. 038, Tong Zi Fang..."
"No. 057, Jiang Ruxue..."
After getting back all the things she had handed in when entering the detention center, including her jewelry, watch, her cell phone and card wallet, Jiang Ruxue put these things back on one by one.
At this moment, she felt the breath of true freedom blowing towards her.
Take a step forward.
The wonderful life that was within her reach was already beckoning to her.
……
The entire waiting room was in chaos as inmates came out one by one after they regained their freedom.
After reuniting with their families, groups of people hugged each other and cried bitterly. Even a heartless person would be moved by this reunion.
Not to mention the two sisters who are already very soft-hearted.
Family is undoubtedly one of the most important bonds in life.
The two sisters felt very sad when they saw others crying. Before they saw Jiang Ruxue, her eyes were already red.
Anyone can pretend to be nonchalant when talking about it, but when you are actually in such a situation, your emotions will burst out involuntarily and you can't control them.
"Mom is here." Jiang Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she saw a reserved figure flash by from the entrance.
The two sisters immediately stood up and went forward to greet them.
After Jiang Yao shouted, Jiang Ruxue raised her head and looked around for a while before her eyes finally fell on the two sisters. Her expression changed in an instant, as if she had come alive. "Ningning...Yaoyao." She hugged the two sisters and her tears immediately fell. Two lines of tears fell freely from the corners of her eyes.
"Mom, you've suffered so much. How did you end up like this? The wound on your hand hasn't healed yet... Did someone bully you?"
Seeing that Jiang Ruxue had wounds on every finger, Jiang Yao's mouth corners instantly curled up, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart, as if she was suffocating.
She held Jiang Ruxue's hand, and her vision became blurry for a moment.
"No one is bullying me, it's just voluntary labor. Mom has never done this kind of work before, and I'm clumsy and hurt myself. I'm bored and have nothing to do in there, but you guys are the ones who are worried outside. It's all my fault..."
She dropped her cheeks.
She was not the one who was suffering. While she was suffering in there, the two sisters who were running around outside were equally miserable. Not only did they have to run around looking for opportunities for this matter, but they also had to be humble.
Of course his daughter Jiang Ruxue knew.
The two sisters have lived a wealthy life since childhood and have sufficient material conditions, so they have never had to care about other people's faces.
Jiang Ruxue knew very well how painful it was to have to read other people's faces. The humiliation to one's self-esteem was a long-lasting trauma. She had been living alone with her two sisters for so many years and had never married, just because she was afraid that her daughters would have to read other people's faces.
She felt extremely guilty for having made things worse.
It was such a huge sum of money that the two sisters would not be able to pay it back even if they sold themselves if no one helped them.
"It's good that it's out. Let's just forget about what happened in the past. Let's live our lives well. Don't blame anyone. Let's just get over it."
Looking at Jiang Ruxue with her bare face, Ning Ning's voice became a little hoarse.
"Ningning is right. Let's not talk about it anymore. From now on, every day is a new day."
"Mom, my sister and I have been worried sick for the past month. My sister didn't tell me when you had the accident because she was afraid that I wouldn't be able to accept it. I only found out about it a few days after you had the accident."
"Your sister is right, Yaoyao. Mommy doesn't want you to worry. If the sky falls, your sister will be there for you. I usually ask you to listen to her more. If mommy really can't get out this time, you sisters will depend on each other in the future. I'm afraid that you will make your sister angry every day... She is the only person you can rely on in your life..."
"Don't talk about this... The more I talk about it, the more I want to cry."
Jiang Yao's tears flowed down, and she couldn't help crying.
No one knows whether Jiang Ruxue thought about ending her life when she was alone in prison and thought about facing decades of imprisonment...
She didn't have the courage to wait for decades...
Growing old, suffering, and waiting in darkness in prison, just for a ray of light that is out of reach.
She's not that strong.
Only when people think about death will they change their long-standing cognition and have a new definition of life.
The three of them hugged each other and cried for a long time, and the whole prison cell was filled with lingering sobs.
The prison guard was obviously used to this kind of scene and showed no emotion at all. He stood there like a statue.
It took a long time for my emotions to gradually stabilize.
Jiang Ning finally had the chance to talk about serious matters.
"Let's go. We're not the only ones here today. Chen Yuan is here too. He's waiting outside, but the prison guard won't let him in."
"It's the one you two like..." Jiang Ruxue was halfway through her words when she saw Ningning and Yaoyao nodded.
She also learned about this during the last visit to the prison, and the two sisters revealed a lot.
Of course, from Ningning and Yaoyao's perspective, they did not know that Chen Yuan and Zhou Cha had already communicated with Jiang Ruxue in private. Due to the limitations of their own perspective, they were still afraid that Jiang Ruxue would be unfriendly to Chen Yuan because she did not know about this.
In fact, they have no need to worry.
"Yes, he contributed a lot to the withdrawal of the lawsuit this time. I raised all the money in the family but it was not enough, so I sold a house," Jiang Ning explained. "It was a gift from my grandparents when I was a coming-of-age ceremony. I was in a hurry at the time and sold it without discussing it with anyone, not even Yaoyao."
"I know it's not enough...the penalty is ten times."
"The Qi guy kept suppressing the price of the building. I couldn't explain it to you when you were in the detention center because I was afraid you would be upset," Jiang Ning continued. "But then, unexpectedly, there was a ray of hope. Another real estate company contacted me and offered a very fair price, even 30% higher than the market price. I sold it without hesitation. Now that I think about it, it was Chen Yuan who made a contribution. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a pie in the sky..."
There was a brief pause.
Jiang Ning lowered her head and whispered, "He treats us well."
"So what are your thoughts?" Jiang Ruxue asked deliberately.
"We went to Kyoto the day before yesterday and met Chen Yuan's family. What did mom think?"
"His family should have a good impression of you, right?"
"Very good, mom. I sent a lot of gifts. I'll tell you in secret," Jiang Yao said mysteriously, holding Jiang Ruxue's arm. "His family is very well-connected. They run a very large company, much bigger than ours. His uncle and aunt are very nice. When they discussed the marriage with us, they said they respected my and my sister's opinions."
"Then according to what you said, both of you are willing to get married." Jiang Ruxue thought for a while and said.
"I'm definitely willing, sister -"
"I mainly want to hear what mom thinks. Yaoyao and I have never considered the idea of marrying the same person before. After all, it's a special case, so the opinions of the elders are of course important." Jiang Ning interrupted anxiously.
As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived outside the door.
The car Chen Yuan was driving was parked outside.
In fact, he saw it from a distance, so he hung up the phone and got out of the car quickly.
Chen Yuan, dressed in sportswear, looked particularly sunny and youthful, showing the high-spirited feeling of a young man. He looked at the three members of the Jiang family, mother and daughter, appearing in the same frame for the first time.
This experience is amazing.
Chen Yuan felt a little bit nervous.
Of course he couldn't do the same as he did during their private meeting. Last time he acted as a superior, but now that Jiang Ruxue had become his elder, Chen Yuan had to behave a little more humble.
Wait until you get close.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Chen Yuan. We met last time in your office."
"Hello, Mr. Chen."
"No, no, no, Auntie, please don't call me that," Chen Yuan's eyes widened immediately and he explained, "Just call me Xiao Chen."
"Ningning just told me that you took care of the two of them outside. If it weren't for you, it would be a question whether I could stand here today. It's not too much to call you Master Chen. I have to express my gratitude to you."
As she spoke, Jiang Ruxue actually began to bow.
The two sisters' eyes widened instantly, and they didn't have time to help each other.
Chen Yuan quickly supported her.
"Auntie, please don't do this. If anyone is going to bow, it should be me, the junior, who bows to you. You are embarrassing me. I cannot accept this courtesy." He quickly bent down as well.
"I have to keep things clear."
"Hey, Auntie, please help me. Even if you bow, I won't accept it."
Chen Yuan never expected that after Jiang Ruxue came out, not only was she no longer ferocious, but her attitude became so soft.
Jiang Ning and Jiang Yao looked at each other.
"What's going on?" Ningning asked in a very low voice.
"The power of money has bent our mother's waist." Jiang Yao complained as if she had already understood it.
I finally picked a rich husband.
Jiang Ruxue must be very polite. (End of this chapter)
