marriage is natural

Chapter 685 Can't get married without saving a dowry?

Knowing that He Wei has returned to China and lives in her mother's house, Zhao Shirong and Li Mingyue brought their five-year-old little bun to He's house as guests, and brought large and small bags of souvenirs, tobacco and alcohol.

Fortunately, He Wei was prepared and took out the spoils from the shopping in London, Zhao Shirong's pipe, Li Mingyue's leather boots, skin care products, Xiao Baozi's water bottle, and puzzles.

Although Xiao Baozi is very unfamiliar with He Wei, after all, it has been more than a year since we last met, but under the encouragement of his parents' eyes, he climbed onto He Wei's lap and smacked loudly on her cheek: "Thank you sister .”

When Mother He saw this, her heart melted, she picked up the little bun, smiled and praised: "What a good boy! No thanks, no thanks, your sister has a lot of money in her private house, so let her buy it for you if you like it. "

"Thank you." Li Mingyue looked at her precious son with a smile and said, "Look at your sister living, working, and studying abroad alone, and she didn't forget to buy you a gift. Besides thank you, what else should Eggy say?"

Little Baozi wrinkled his face and thought hard for a long time, then turned his head and said to He Wei solemnly: "Sister, don't waste your money to buy it for me next time. Grandma said that the money girls earn should be saved for dowry, sister, your private money Hurry up and save it up as a dowry, without a dowry, you won’t be able to get married.”

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then patted the table and laughed.

He Mu even laughed so hard that tears came out.

But He Wei was so embarrassing that she almost dug a hole to get in.

Li Mingyue looked at her innocent-looking son, covered her face, and turned around to explain to everyone: "I took him back to my hometown during the Chinese New Year last year, and met my eldest cousin. Her daughter is 25 this year. She has graduated for three years, and she has nothing to say. , the wages earned and the bonuses paid are all gone before the end of the month, and I have to ask my parents for new clothes when I buy new clothes for the New Year. My mother saw her and grabbed her and read a few words from her, probably because this kid heard it... "

"No!" Little Baozi refuted his mother's words righteously, "It's not me who eavesdropped, it was grandma who hugged me and told me not to be like big sister and save money, my little one The pig belly (piggy bank) is full... By the way, Ma Ma, you promised to buy me a big pig belly, but you still haven’t bought it for me yet!”

"I'll buy it for you!" Without waiting for Li Mingyue to respond, He Qingdong took the little bun from Hemu's arms and put it high on his shoulders, "I'll take you to the mall, what size and style do you like, Choose yourself!"

First Young Master He felt that it was necessary to brainwash this kid. What do you mean you won't be able to get married without a dowry?What an international joke!Xiao Nizi obviously has him, so there is no need to save a dowry to recruit a husband!Not at all! ! !
Everyone would feel sorry, and couldn't help laughing again.

He Wei lost her temper completely from the laughter, wiped her face deeply, followed in the footsteps of two men, one big and one young, and accompanied them to the mall to pick piggy banks.

The commercial district opposite the main gate of Binhai No. [-] has developed. There are comprehensive supermarkets and various special counters. Although the prices are relatively higher than those of old department stores such as Mingzhu Shopping Mall, it is convenient because you don’t even need to drive. Just go on foot.

He Wei bought six shops here, because she started early and picked prime locations, and two of them are being renovated, and she plans to move Wenxinyuan's Heji here, so that her parents can "commute" very easily. It's convenient; the other four rooms are rented out, and the monthly rent is tens of thousands. No wonder Hemu teased Fengwo, her private house.

The cloth handicraft shop in Chonglin, the Changbai Shanzhen shop in Kyoto, plus the rent of this shop, even if you don’t work in the future, you can support yourself properly.So I heard my daughter said that she would be at home until the end of the summer vacation, and there was no objection.On the contrary, I am so happy.I wish I could see her at home every day, changing recipes for three meals a day to give her a whole meal.

Because of Xu Shifei's holiday, the shopping mall is deserted, and there are at most two or three kittens.

The counter staff also gathered in twos and threes to chat their teeth.

He Wei took a navigation map at the door, followed the instructions above to find the gift counter, turned her head and waved to the little bun in He Qingdong's arms: "It's here. Come and pick your balls yourself."

"Huh? Isn't this He Wei?" A slightly hoarse female voice came from the counter.

He Wei turned her head according to the sound, looked at the young woman who was uniformly dressed and dressed as a salesperson in front of her, and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, are you..."

It is extremely embarrassing to look at someone who is somewhat familiar with the face, but cannot recognize him at once, let alone call out the person's name.

"You don't know me, do you?" The young woman smiled self-deprecatingly, "Even I almost don't recognize myself. But you, it seems that there has been no change. If you really want to talk about changes," the woman's eyes are like searchlights. After looking at He Wei all over, a stiff smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "I have become more temperamental than when I was in high school."

As he spoke, he looked again at the approaching He Qingdong and the little bun sitting on his shoulders, with a look of deep longing in his eyes, and a meaningful look at He Wei: "Unexpectedly, you are already married, son You’re already so old. But it shouldn’t be, didn’t you have good grades, why? Didn’t you get into college later?”

He Wei finally recognized who the woman was when she was chattering endlessly.

"Lu Lili?"

"It's just me!" Lu Lili glanced at her newly-made nails with flickering eyes, and there was a trace of resentment in her eyes, and she muttered in her heart: All this is not thanks to you!Otherwise, how could I be expelled from Haicheng No. [-] High School?It's just a dream come true to be admitted to a formal university after three years of being in a low-level vocational school!
Then again, Lu Lili wondered why He Wei didn't get into college, "Don't think about your grades at that time, Beijing University should be more than enough, why did you marry and have children? Let me tell you, women marry Too early is not good, I'm just a living example, if I knew in advance that life would be so tiring after marriage, I wouldn't want to marry, how much salary does it cost, it's not like now, what I get is not only for chewing but also for eating. I have to hand it over to my in-laws..."

As soon as Lu Lili complained, she couldn't stop her rhythm, and it was Xiao Baozi who answered crisply: "Auntie, my grandmother said that girls should marry, that's the best!"

Lu Lili who was suddenly interrupted: "..."

He Wei, who had nothing to do with the silly-faced little bun: "..."

He Qingdong raised his eyebrows and smiled, and replied with a face: "Your grandma is right!"

"Really? Uncle, do you agree with my grandmother's words?"

"Of course!" After He Da Shao answered, he always felt that something was weird, and it took him a while to realize: "Why do you call me uncle and her sister?"

He pointed to He Wei and asked Xiao Baozi.

"Because a sister is a sister, and an uncle is an uncle."

Young Master He: "..." What the hell kind of answer is this!
Lu Lili also figured out something was wrong, her fingers froze back and forth between He Wei and Xiao Baozi: "He Wei is not your son? No! Why should he call you sister and my aunt!" Stamped her feet !Who the hell is this kid!It's so annoying!
Coming out of the shopping mall, Xiao Baozi was content to hold a big piggy bank, still sitting on He Qingdong's shoulder, practicing repeatedly: "Sister is married! No need to save a dowry!..."

He Qingdong sighed in his heart, "Children can be taught", patted the little bun expressing satisfaction, and glanced at the little girl beside him: "Have you laughed enough?" From entering to coming out, he laughed all the way.

He Wei's children's shoes were working hard while holding back a smile, when asked by Young Master He, he couldn't hold back any longer, and instantly leaked air like a balloon that had been punctured—"Hahaha..."

"Big brother, what is sister laughing at?" Little Baozi asked curiously while supporting He Qingdong's head.

"Who knows!" the man replied lazily.

But this "big brother" sounded pleasant to the ear.Although at his age, coaxing a four- or five-year-old little bun to call him "Brother" is a bit cheeky, but whoever made the little bun refuse to change his name to "Auntie", he had no choice but to make do with it up.

"Sit tight! The plane is taking off!" First Young Master He held the little bun firmly and walked back in a super happy mood.

"Take off, take off!" Xiao Baozi held the piggy bank in one hand and supported He Qingdong's head in the other, shouting excitedly, turning around from time to time to urge He Wei: "Sister, hurry up! Big brother's plane is about to take off." The speed is very fast! You will be home in a short time!"

"Okay! Here we come!" Seeing one big and one small striding forward, He Wei wiped away the tears from laughter, and happily chased after them.

"The neck is so long, what kind of diorama are you looking at?" Lu Lili's colleague at the counter next to her came over and patted her on the shoulder.

Lu Lili was taken aback, and said angrily: "What else can I watch standing here?! It's not good to see the couple showing their affection!"

"Hey, you still need to watch others show affection, isn't your husband treating you very well?" the colleague said sourly.Lu Lili married Xiao Kai from the south of the city, and that was a well-known fact in the mall.At the beginning, the man held a large bouquet of roses and proposed marriage at the gate of the shopping mall. His behavior was so romantic that he envied their group of women of the same age who did not do well in their second reincarnation.

"Speaking of which, you just can't figure it out. If I were married to such a rich husband, why would I go out to work, eat and sleep at home, and go shopping dressed up when I'm bored? Play hard, have fun..."

Lu Lili didn't bother to talk to her, she turned her head and pretended to take care of the counter. After busying herself, her colleague left bored.

After her colleague left, Lu Lili leaned on the counter and crushed an ant wandering around to death.

Married to a rich husband?ha!From now on, can I live the life of a rich wife who eats, drinks, and walks the dog in her free time?ha!This is really a sad joke that cannot be more sad!

It's true that the husband's family is rich, and it's true that the husband is a rich second generation, but in fact, the mother-in-law holds all the money in her hands.The total amount of money available to her husband is less than 2 yuan.Just like this, the mother-in-law is still checking in frequently. When she first got married, she didn't know it. She used her husband's card to swipe a new mobile phone, but when she got home, she was scolded bloody by her mother-in-law, saying that she was married. She came here to carry on the family line of the Zhu family, not to be a rich wife, as long as the mobile phone can be used, why change the old one for a new one?It is enough to have a few sets of clothes that can be seen by people. I usually cook at home and do hygiene. What are you doing in such a bright and beautiful dress... blah blah blah... Finally, ask her to hand over the money for the mobile phone and charge it back to her husband's bank card .

I thought I caught a golden turtle, but it turned out to be a gold-plated iron rooster!
After being dazed for a few days, Lu Lili regained her strength and felt that she couldn't live through this day.Not going to work or working means that you have no money.I can't work hard at home, and my hands are tied when I go out.It's even worse than being a temporary cashier in a supermarket for three months when you just graduated from a vocational school.Don't look at her husband getting in and out of luxury cars and swiping cards in and out of restaurants, but in fact, the amount of money he really enjoys control over is not much: the car is bought by the family, and which restaurant to spend in must be designated by his parents-in-law.If you want to buy something extra, you must spend it within 2 yuan. If you finish this month, you have to wait for the next month.It's like the living expenses when she was in school.Consumption items also need the consent of parents-in-law, especially mother-in-law.Buying her a mobile phone, clothes, cosmetics, etc. is not within the scope of consent.If you buy it first and then play it, both of them will have to be criticized later.

What's the point of living like this?
Lu Lili went back to her natal home and cried.Mother Lu disagreed, and persuaded her earnestly: "Based on your conditions, what else do you want to find? Divorce and divorce, do you think it will be easy after divorce? Then find someone worse than this, and life is hard. , the reputation is also bad. Now at least you don’t have to worry about life. At most, you don’t have freedom when you spend money. What kind of life do you want to live when you have a son? Do you want to live a life after you have a bargaining chip? The Zhu family can’t revolve around you? Then, won’t all the hardships come to an end?”

On the one hand, Lu Lili can't get support from her natal family, on the other hand, she feels that her mother's words are not unreasonable. No matter how rich she is, she will always burp when she is old, right?By then, the property will not all belong to her son.

Thinking about it this way, the idea of ​​divorce was thrown out of the blue by her again.

But she was flustered because she didn’t have any money, so once at the dinner table, she tactfully mentioned her plan to go out to work. The original intention was to hope that her in-laws would give her some living expenses. That's fine, for hair, beauty, and clothes, [-] yuan a month is only enough.The plan was quite good, but unexpectedly, the in-laws did not act according to her script, but said: "You feel that you are too busy at home, and if you want to go out to work, then go. Our family is still very open-minded. But when you get pregnant I have to quit my job and wait for delivery, my precious grandson of the Zhu family can't have an overworked mother."

At that time, Lu Lili ran through [-] mud horses at the same time in her mind, damn it!All good things have been said by you!How dare you throw out a bunch of soft sister coins, so that the mother of the child will not be so tired! ! !
