085 My mouth is dry and I don't want to talk

One hundred and eighty thousand betrothal gifts.

A down payment of $600,000 for a house.

A car worth two hundred thousand. One million!

This requires the Chen family to come up with one million.

Ye Chen almost couldn't help shouting, "Is this inlaid with gold?"

In this exaggerated, fucked up and deformed era.

For many women who are about to get married, asking for a dowry, a house and a car is nothing wrong.

But it is understandable that these four words must be based on the premise that the other party's family situation allows it!

It depends on the situation of the Chen family.

After Chen Jianguo was laid off a few years ago, he finally found a job as a security guard. And Liu Xueqin was just a cleaner in a company.

The combined salary of the couple is only about 7,000 yuan a month.

Let's look at Chen Yihao. Although he works as a designer in a decoration company, his salary is more than 10,000 yuan per month.

But apart from the money spent on Wang Qian, as well as basic daily expenses and socializing with friends and relatives, there is no savings at all.

In this context, on the surface, one million is an astronomical figure for such a family.

When Liu Xueqin and Chen Jianguo heard Wang Qian's request, they were stunned.

Isn't it said that just the house is enough?

Now he is asking for a betrothal gift of 180,000 yuan and a Mercedes-Benz?

As for Chen Yihao, even though he usually treated Wang Qian in an extremely humble manner, he couldn't help but frown at this moment.

"Xiao Qian, this must add up to one million!" Chen Yinuo couldn't help but frowned.

Little did he know that Wang Qian disagreed.

She snorted, "One million? Is one million a lot? Compared to the sisters around me, my requirements are relatively low!"

"Xiao Qian, um, didn't you say before that as long as we bought a wedding house, it would be fine?" Liu Xueqin asked with a somewhat unnatural expression.

"Yes, I suggested before that we just buy a wedding house, but thinking about it, your family's financial situation doesn't allow it, so I have to settle for the second best option!" Wang Qian said.

"How can this be considered a second best option?" Chen Jianguo said.

"How come you're not settling for the second best? The wedding house I mentioned before is a fully paid house, which costs at least two million! Now my family wants a dowry of 180,000 yuan, a down payment for the wedding house, a Mercedes-Benz A-Series, which comes out to be one million yuan. Isn't this taking your family situation into consideration?" Wang Qian said with a bit of impatience.

"If you consider Yihao's family situation, you shouldn't make these demands. You and Yihao have been together for a long time. Don't you know the family situation? One million...it's not a small amount!"

To everyone's surprise, Ye Chen actually spoke at this moment.

However, before Wang Qian could respond.

Liu Xueqin was the first to explode.

He scolded, "You are a shameless scoundrel who eats and drinks for free. Do you have the right to speak? Can't the food on the table stop you from talking?"

To this.

Ye Chen shrugged helplessly and smiled bitterly. He was no longer asking for trouble. But he chose to keep quiet, but Wang Qian refused.

Sneered at him, "Then what do you think I should ask for? Like Yihao's sister, don't ask for anything and just marry him? And then live in those dirty and messy rental houses in the urban village, riding an electric bike in the wind, sun and rain? Even if I am willing, will my parents who gave birth to me and raised me be willing to let me suffer this?"

It would have been better if Wang Qian didn't say this.

I get angry when I talk about Liu Xueqin and Chen Jianguo.

It was because Chen Yinuo gave up those tall, rich and handsome men and chose this orphan good-for-nothing.

As a result, not only did their family fail to improve their lives, but they also couldn't even get a dime of the bride price!

Thinking about how much it would cost for Yihao to marry a wife, I suddenly felt unbalanced.

I saw my parents' faces suddenly darken and the storm suddenly came.

Anxious Chen Yinuo immediately scolded Ye Chen, "What are you meddling in? Shut up!"

"Hmph..." Wang Qian snorted sarcastically.

Not only towards Ye Chen, but also towards Chen Yinuo. Ye Chen was sullen and kept silent.

The cell phone in my pocket suddenly rang.

After taking it out and seeing that it was Xiao Qiang calling.

After thinking about it, I decided not to refuse and hang up.

"I'm going to answer a phone call first!"

Although he was looking at Chen Yinuo.

But Liu Xueqin quickly waved her hand in disgust, "Get out of here as soon as you can!"

Ye Chen ignored it.

At Chen Yinuo's nod, he walked towards the balcony with his cell phone.

At the dinner table.

Chen Yihao spoke up, "Wang Qian, isn't this a bit too much? You knew my family situation when you were with me, right? One million, aren't you forcing me to die?"

As he spoke, Chen Yihao's anger that had been suppressed for a long time also came to the fore. "Also, are you marrying me, or the house and the Mercedes? I accept the betrothal gift, which is what I should give, but can't we work together for the car and the house? You are not only embarrassing me, but also my parents!"

Wang Qian was not an easy person to deal with in the past, and she will not be one in the future.

She had always been accustomed to bullying Chen Yihao, and was also accustomed to Chen Yihao's gentleness and humility towards her.

How could she accept Chen Yihao's yelling at her at that moment?

"Strive together? What if you can't work together? If you can't work together, you'll be like your sister, living in a rented house that looks like a doghouse, riding a broken electric bike, right? If you want to embarrass yourself and your parents, then forget it, and don't get married!"

"You..." Chen Yihao's face trembled.

"What do you mean, are you still getting angry with me? It's your family that wants to marry me now, not me, Wang Qian, who is begging to marry into your family!" Wang Qian frowned, not giving him any face at all.

The situation was about to get out of control.

Chen Jianguo was anxious, "What are you yelling about, you little brat?"

After that, he looked at Wang Qian again and said, "Xiao Qian, how about this? 180,000 yuan for the betrothal gift is fine, and the down payment for the house is also fine! It's this Mercedes Benz..."

Chen Jianguo paused.

Due to demolition a few years ago, their family was not only allocated a three-bedroom apartment as resettlement housing, but also received an additional compensation of over 400,000 yuan.

In addition to the more than 300,000 yuan that Ye Chen had withdrawn from his bank card before, as well as the savings from his frugal life over the years.

There are also eight or nine hundred thousand!

But this is still a little short of 100,000!

Facing Chen Jianguo's words, Liu Xueqin quickly followed up and said, "Xiao Qian, can we just give a down payment for the Mercedes-Benz? Put it in your name, and then his father and I will slowly pay for it. Do you think it's okay?"

"Dad, Mom, that's enough!" Chen Yihao's eyes turned red, tears welling up in his eyes. "Didn't I tell you to shut up? What are you yelling about?" Chen Jianguo scolded immediately. Wang Qian looked at Chen Yihao, who was clenching his teeth.

Then he said, "That works too!"

Next second.

Liu Xueqin didn't care at all that she had already invested all her pension money in it.

She said excitedly, "Hey, hey, hey, okay, then you should tell your parents right away, and give me your date of birth. I will ask a fortune teller to pick an auspicious date for your marriage, and then our two families can arrange the wedding!"

As if she didn't have too many emotional fluctuations, Wang Qian nodded, "Okay, that's no problem!

After getting a definite answer, Wang Qian, feeling satisfied, put on a gentle face.

He said to Chen Hao, "Yihao, I'm not trying to embarrass you or your family. It's my parents who insisted on doing this. They raised me up so big, and they were afraid that I would melt if they held me in their mouths, and they were afraid that I would fall if they held me in their hands. They just wanted me to not have to live such a hard life after marriage. Can you understand?"

"My mouth is dry and I don't want to talk!" Chen Hao tried hard to suppress his anger that was beginning to collapse.

"Dry mouth? Okay, I'll get you a glass of water!"

Having said that, Wang Qian stood up and walked towards the water dispenser in the living room near the balcony as if she were familiar with the place.

Seeing Wang Qian's "virtuous" demeanor and her "deep concern" for her son, Liu Xueqin seemed to have forgotten that Wang Qian's request had completely drained their family.

His face was full of joy and relief.

On the balcony.

He didn't know that Wang Qian was only three or four meters away from him.

Hearing Xiao Qiang's voice on the phone again proposing to buy Jinzhong Village from him.

He smiled and replied, "Okay, Mr. Xiao, I won't waste my words. My bottom line is - 10 million - 66 buildings, that's 660 million. If you really want it, bring 660 million and I will sell it to you immediately. Otherwise, no deal, no deal even for a penny less!"

As luck would have it, it happened to enter Wang Qian's ears.
