Making a living in Dongguan, her fiery red lips offer me tenderness.

"No, I can't explain it to you in a short time."

"No rush, tell me slowly, what exactly happened?"

"Mom, then I'll tell you, but you absolutely mustn't tell anyone."

"Don't worry, the Ding family may be shameless, but I still have a reputation. I have to think about your reputation and can't let them ruin it."

Qinghe thought for a moment and then told her mother about Tan Yan, but she didn't dare to tell her that Tan Yan was pregnant.

"Mom, I'm in Shenzhen. Xiaoyang has been taking care of me and has given me money several times. He even bought me this phone."

"Hmph, isn't it just that he wants to possess you?"

"Mom, Xiaoyang is very proud. Please don't tell anyone. He said he would stay with me."

"He really bought a house in Shenzhen. Is that woman really that naive?"

"I bought it, for over 380 million. I know this very well; he didn't hide it from me."

"Wow, no wonder you said nobody in our town is as rich as him, he's really struck it rich."

"Qinghe, but he's with an old woman, don't you mind? Are you stupid?"

"Mom, this is only temporary. I'll just treat it as a job. They'll definitely break up eventually."

"Hmph, isn't he just a gigolo?"

"Mom, I'm all grown up now. I have my own thoughts. I know what I want and what I'm doing."

"I'm a girl, and I'll get married eventually. If I don't date Ding Yang, what kind of boyfriend can I find?"

"Many people wanted to set me up with someone, and you almost agreed. But what kind of people were they? They thought they were doing very well just because they had a motorcycle and a dilapidated house."

"You think you can marry me for a few thousand yuan in dowry? Do you think I'm that cheap?"

"But Ding Yang has other women, aren't you being foolish?"

"Mom, those boys who come to me for blind dates, are they all innocent? Haven't they ever been in a relationship before? Some of them have been dating people at the factory for a long time, and who knows how many times they've been in relationships."

"Mom, Ding Yang is very generous. If he has a dollar, he's willing to give someone 8 cents. If I'm with him, he won't treat me badly."

"Our house is so dilapidated. I'll try to tear it down and rebuild it next year."

"Qinghe, is the 1 yuan that Ding Yang gave you considered a bride price?"

"Of course not, he's just giving me money to spend."

"That's more like it. Your aunt always praised him, and he is indeed handsome, so your parents agreed to let you go to Guangdong with him."

"I never expected that this kid would suddenly become rich after just a few months. He went from being a pig farmer to a tycoon in the blink of an eye."

"Mom, I'm with Ding Yang. No matter what the future holds, he won't treat me badly. At least he'll be better off than those poor bastards, right?"

Will he break up with that rich woman?

"Mom, don't worry, even if he doesn't break up with me, I have ways to deal with him."

"What do you mean?"

"If he breaks up with the rich woman, I'll stay with him and live a good life. If he doesn't want to break up, then his wealth will only increase. I'll make him buy me a house and a car."

Will he buy it?

"Yes, he will. Others won't, but he definitely will. I've got him cornered."

Why?

"Mom, what's the most expensive dowry for a woman?"

"What is it? How would Mom know?"

"Mom, a woman's most precious dowry is her virginity. In the eyes of the poor, money is more important than anything else, but in the eyes of the truly wealthy, money is just a number. In Ding Yang's eyes, my first time is more precious than anything else. He will never forget it. Based on this alone, I can control him for a lifetime."

"Ding Yang spends money extravagantly now, without any sense of proportion. The outfit he's wearing costs over 4 yuan, and the suitcase he's carrying costs over 6 yuan."

"what……"

"Nonsense! His suitcase is worth a house in the county town? How is that possible?"

"Mom, that's Hermes, the more expensive ones cost over 100,000 yuan each."

"Wow!"

"Mom, today at the supermarket in the county town, he was buying alcohol. If I hadn't persuaded him, he would have gone straight for Moutai and Wuliangye. In the end, he chose Jiugui liquor, which is more than 200 yuan a bottle at wholesale price. He bought eight cases at once."

"He spends money without batting an eye these days, buying things worth thousands of dollars like it's cabbage."

"Our house is too dilapidated. We'll tear it down next year and have Dad rebuild it."

"Girl, building a decent house these days costs 200,000 yuan, and even if you try to save money, it will still cost over 100,000 yuan."

"Don't worry, 20 is nothing to him."

"Girl, if you keep asking him for money, he'll get annoyed."

"Mom, I'm not that stupid. I'll let him say it himself. I won't ask him for money on my own."

"Qinghe, you've really changed. You've matured a lot in the few months I haven't seen you. I hardly recognize you anymore."

"Mom, I haven't changed. No matter how much I change, I'll always be your daughter."

"Sigh, after being poor my whole life, it wouldn't be bad to find a rich son-in-law."

"Mom, don't tell Dad about these things. He's too honest and easily tricked into revealing things. He might even blurt it out when he's drunk."

"Ding Yang is very concerned about his image. You can't reveal a single word about his affair with the rich woman. If you expose it, he'll get angry and embarrassed, and I won't be able to control him anymore."

"Don't worry, do you think I'm stupid? My son-in-law is living off a woman outside, would I tell anyone?"

"Yes, that's good to know."

"Alright, go wash your hands and get ready for dinner. This afternoon, your dad and I are going to his house for a banquet, and we'll also talk to your aunt."

"Mom, you can talk to Auntie, but please don't tell her that I've been sleeping with Ding Yang. If you say that, Auntie will make trouble for him. Auntie is Ding Yang's elder, and she'll give him a good scolding. It'll make things ugly for everyone. Sometimes it's better to expose things than to say them outright."

"I understand, Mom won't bring these things up casually."

"Um!"

When Ding Yang got home, he drove to the threshing ground. The road was all cement and brand new.

Ding Yang cursed inwardly, "What a show-off! Damn it, the cement road is really finished."

Upon arriving at the threshing ground, Ding Yang honked the horn a few times before driving to his house.

Grandpa and Grandma, along with Uncle Changshui and his wife from the village, immediately came out.

Ding Yang got off the bus.

"Grandpa, Grandma!"

"Uncle Changshui, Auntie!"

"You brat, I thought you weren't coming back."

"Grandpa, something came up and I was delayed for a day. It's Grandma's birthday, how could I not come back?"

Ding Yang immediately took out "He Tianxia" cigarettes and offered them to his grandfather and Uncle Changshui.

"You haven't eaten yet!"

"I had a bowl of rice noodles in the county town. I rushed back from Chenzhou this morning and haven't stopped eating since. I just bought some things at the supermarket in the county town."

Ding Yang opened the trunk.

"Grandpa, I bought a few cases of wine."

Ding Changshui immediately began unloading the goods.

There are still two boxes on the seat.

"Grandpa, did you go to town to buy groceries this morning?"

"I've bought it all. I've bought almost everything I needed to."

"Have you slaughtered a pig yet? Do you have any other large pigs at home?"

"No! They were sold long ago, why would we slaughter a pig?"
