Chapter 168 Da Wa's Marriage

Xia Wanyang held Aunt Qiao's arm and said, "Brother, I have an idea, I wonder if it will work!"

Zhang Shifeng sat up straight, "Sister-in-law, you are the smartest person in our family, so what you say will definitely be useful."

Xia Wanyang smiled slyly, "Just give that girl a try. Go to school and call Da Wa and her home, tell them that you want to discuss marriage, and then bargain down the price by saying that you can't afford so much money. Da Wa will definitely not be happy, so you argue with him and pretend to tell him that you will no longer care about his affairs and they are not allowed to live in the house. If they want to get married, they have to find a way themselves. See what the girl says.

If she still wants to be with Da Wa, then she is probably sincere about it. If she leaves Da Wa after a month or two, then it’s done! ”

Su Man said worriedly, "Will the eldest child think that I instigated this and hold a grudge against me and your eldest brother?"

Xia Wanyang shrugged, "Sister-in-law, you've been married for so many years, and you've seen how good Da Wa and Er Wa's parents are. Da Wa and Er Wa are not heartless children. If he holds a grudge against you because of a classmate, then your sincerity will be wasted."

If someone else said this, Zhang Heping and Qiao Shuyun might not feel it was pleasant, but when it came from Xia Wanyang's mouth, it was the truth.

Aunt Qiao suddenly realized something. "Let's do this. If you're afraid that Da Wa will bear a grudge against you, then Shi Feng doesn't need to argue with him. I'll do it. I've raised him for eighteen years. Let's see if this little bastard dares to bear a grudge against me. If he does, I'll beat him to death. Let's see who dares to stop me!"

Zhang Shifeng quickly expressed his opinion, "Mom, don't even mention beating him to death. Even if you want to beat me to death, I won't say a word!"

The whole family burst into laughter. Zhang Shiye leaned over to Xia Wanyang's ear and whispered, "My dear, you definitely have the highest status in our family. What you say is like an imperial decree. You are so amazing!"

He got an eye roll and a snort in response.

Two days later, Zhang Shifeng called Da Wa and Yu Qing back home, and all the members of the Zhang family went to Zhang Shifeng's house.

The Zhang family is large, so when making the furniture, Xia Wanyang specially ordered an extra-large table that could seat more than 20 people.

Su Man prepared eighteen dishes, including chicken, duck, fish and meat, and also fried a lot of snacks. Yu Qing's eyes were green with envy. Why did others eat like this? Her family couldn't even have four dishes during the Chinese New Year.

Halfway through the meal, Xia Wanyang gave Aunt Qiao a look. Aunt Qiao put down her chopsticks and said with a smile, "Grandson, when are you two going to get married? Grandma feels that you have just entered college, so it would be better to wait until you graduate. What do you think?"

Yu Qing quickly kicked Da Wa under the table, and Da Wa also put down his chopsticks. "Grandma, Qingqing and I have met each other's parents, and we are not young anymore. Getting married will not affect our college education. What do you think?"

"That's fine, but this betrothal gift..."

Yu Qing quickly interrupted, "My family also wants a sewing machine as a gift. I'm a college student, and my dad said I can start making money after graduation, so he said five hundred yuan is a bit too little, and one thousand yuan is enough!"

Da Wa secretly glanced at Zhang Shifeng and Su Man, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they didn't react.

After Yu Qing finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Heping and Aunt Qiao proudly. The two old guys didn't say anything last time, so it must be their idea to call them back home this time. Zhang Jian is the eldest grandson of the Zhang family. As long as she can hold Zhang Jian, the whole family will agree to any request she makes.

Aunt Qiao looked at Da Wa and asked, "Zhang Jian, what do you think?"

The eldest boy was shocked. For so many years, his grandmother rarely called him by his full name. "Grandma, this money is a loan from me. I will pay it back later!"

Xia Wanyang sneered, "Repay? A thousand yuan betrothal gift, a thousand yuan TV, two hundred yuan bicycle, four hundred yuan sewing machine, plus the money for your wedding, three thousand yuan in total, what are you going to use to pay it back? You will be a factory worker after graduating from that major, I'll give you eighty yuan a month, it will take you two years without food or drink to pay it back!"

Big Baby's face turned red and he stammered, unable to utter a word.

Yu Qing frowned. She knew this person, Zhang Jian's fourth aunt. She heard that her fourth uncle treated her as an eyeball, and if anyone dared to refute her, her fourth uncle would really beat him, regardless of gender.

Yu Qing quickly put on a silly expression, "Fourth Aunt, we young people have no future and have to rely on our family. How can we afford to pay it back? Zhang Jian is the eldest grandson of the Zhang family. It is a family matter to marry him off. Even if his parents can't afford so much money, shouldn't you and Second Uncle and Third Uncle help out?"

Xia Wanyang rolled her eyes. "Why should we help Zhang Jian get married? He's a grown man with all his hands and feet, but he can't afford a wife and has to rely on his family?"

Aunt Qiao gave Xia Wanyang a soothing look and continued, "Okay, you want so many things, I want to hear what you want as a dowry?"

Yu Qing said confidently: "I don't have any dowry, so the betrothal gift has to go to my parents' home. It's not easy for my parents to raise me, so it's our duty to respect them!"

Zhang Heping took the wine glass beside him and took a sip, then looked up at Da Wa, "Oh? So Zhang Jian must have come out of nowhere, and it wasn't easy for your parents to raise you, but it must have been easy for his parents to raise him? You want Zhang Jian's parents to pay money to honor your parents, that doesn't make sense, does it?"

Yu Qing stiffened her neck and wanted to refute, but Da Wa tugged at her clothes and signaled her to stop. Da Wa knew that the whole family was angry.

Aunt Qiao picked up a bite of food for Xiao Yueyue, and without looking at Yu Qing, she said slowly: "Zhang Jian hasn't told you about our family situation yet, right? We are all from the countryside. It was with the help of Zhang Jian's fourth aunt's family that we were transferred to Shanghai. The house we live in now, Zhang Jian's father's job, everything was given by my fourth daughter-in-law, so if you want to find a sucker, you may have found the wrong person.

If you really want to marry Zhang Jian, then you can work hard on your own after graduation. We as family members will support you, but it also depends on your performance!"

Aunt Qiao looked up at Zhang Jian again, "Big boy, you know the situation in our family very well, and don't think of yourself as the eldest grandson. Your grandfather and I have many grandchildren, and one more is not too many, and one less is not too few. It's not a wise move to use this to threaten your family. You have been in the big city for a while, and you must be drifting. Even if you are used to eating refined rice, you still have to remember the taste of brown rice. People should not forget their roots, do you understand?"

Da Wa stood up quickly and said, "Grandma, I was wrong. I will break up with her now. I was blinded by greed and made you and my grandfather sad!"

Yu Qing stood up angrily, "Zhang Jian, what do you mean? We held hands and kissed each other. You can break up if you want to. I'm telling you I don't agree. If you want to do this, I'll sue you for being a hooligan. Just wait to be arrested!"

After saying that, he wanted to run away, but Xia Wanyang shouted, "Stop!"

Yu Qing was startled and stopped for some reason. Xia Wanyang walked over and took her arm, pretending to feel her pulse. Yu Qing tried to struggle away, but Zhang Shiye stood up and stood beside Xia Wanyang, "Don't move. If you hurt my wife, I'll beat you to death!"

A minute later, Xia Wanyang put her arm down and said with a few clicks of the tongue, "You're pregnant and you still have the audacity to say you're going to sue our eldest child. You really have a good plan. This child is a bastard and has no father. Do you want our eldest child to take over?"
