Chapter 210: Treating Everyone Equally

Jian Liqiu frowned slightly.

She thought the Ji family's betrothal gift wouldn't be too high, but she didn't expect...

Four hundred.

As soon as my younger sister and the political commissar confirmed their relationship, the political commissar gave her three passbooks. Although my younger sister didn't tell me how much money was in each of them, considering the political commissar's wealth, I guess it must be a lot.

And the red envelopes given by the old man and the old lady...

She never thought of competing with her younger sister.

But the Ji family's 400 yuan betrothal gift is too...

Last year, her brother married her sister-in-law, and her family gave her sister-in-law a betrothal gift of 1,200 yuan.

She thought the Ji family would have to give her at least 660 or 880, but she never expected...

"Why?"

Before Jian Liqiu expressed her opinion, Huang Yingying quit.

She stood up quickly, put her hands on her hips, and started splashing.

"We're both daughters-in-law, so why should she get a hundred more than me? Do I have one less arm or one less leg than her?" "I'm making this clear today. If you, the Ji family, can't treat us equally, then we can't live like this anymore."

"Huang Yingying, can you be reasonable? When we got married, the bride price was 300 yuan. Now the bride price has increased. What's wrong with us increasing the bride price for Li Qiu?" Ji Ben said angrily.

"Li Qiu, Li Qiu, you're calling me in a very affectionate way." Huang Yingying started to speak in a sarcastic tone again.

"Huang Yingying..."

"sister in law……"

The two brothers Ji Ben and Ji Lei spoke at the same time.

It looked like another quarrel was about to break out.

"Are you trying to force me to death?" Ji Lei's mother slammed the table angrily.

Everyone in the room was instantly silenced.

"Aunt, my younger sister's clothing store opens today. I have to go and take a look, so I'll leave first." Jian Liqiu really couldn't sit still anymore.

She, who has always had a harmonious family, doesn't know how to deal with the endless quarrels.

perhaps……

She thought marriage was too simple.

Jian Liqiu stood up and wanted to leave.

Ji Lei's mother quickly winked at Ji Lei, signaling him to persuade him quickly.

"Li Qiu, sit for a while! I'll take you there later." Ji Lei frowned and looked at Jian Li Qiu, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Ji Lei is good-looking, well-educated, and is also down-to-earth and capable in the company.

When he confessed his love to Jian Liqiu, Jian Liqiu was happy.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have agreed to file a marriage report so quickly.

Facing his pleading eyes at this moment, it was difficult for Jian Liqiu to refuse.

Maybe Ji Lei's mother was angry, Huang Yingying didn't dare to act like a troublemaker anymore, and went back to her mother's house next door with her child.

Ji Lei winked at Ji Ben again.

Knowing that his mother had something to say, Ji Ben used the excuse that he had work to do in the fields and went out carrying his hoe.

After the courtyard gate was closed, Ji Lei's mother went back to the house and searched for a while. After a while, she came out with a small cloth bag.

After unpacking it layer by layer, a shiny silver bracelet was finally revealed.

Just by looking at the quality of the silver bracelet, you can tell that the owner cherishes it very much.

Ji Lei's mother picked up the silver bracelet and was about to put it on Jian Liqiu's wrist.

Jian Liqiu subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"Auntie, I can't have..."

But his hand was held tightly by Ji Lei's mother.

Ji Lei's mother did not give Jian Liqiu any chance to refuse and forcefully put the silver bracelet on her wrist.

"It looks beautiful, really beautiful." Ji Lei's mother looked at the silver bracelet on Jian Liqiu's wrist and couldn't help but sigh.

"Auntie, I can't have it..." Jian Liqiu wanted to take it off and return it to Ji Lei's mother, but Ji Lei's mother grabbed her hand.

"Li Qiu, don't despise it. Although this is not worth much money, it is a token of my aunt's love..." Ji Lei's mother sighed softly.

"This was the dowry my grandmother gave to my mother when she married my father." Ji Lei explained on the side.

"I have always liked daughters, but ended up giving birth to these two little brats. Now, after meeting you, my dream of having a daughter has come true." Ji Lei's mother held Jian Liqiu's hand affectionately.

Jian Liqiu pursed her lips and smiled, but said nothing.

She was actually quite confused.

It felt like someone poured a bucket of paste into my head.

She thought that getting married would be like her brother and sister-in-law, and they would be happily together.

I never expected there would be so many messes.

"Ji Lei's mother..." Suddenly someone knocked on the gate.

"I'm coming!" Ji Lei's mother stood up and walked out.

No one knew what the visitor said. Ji Lei's mother came back, said hello, and left in a hurry.

The unmarried man and woman sat together without saying a word, and the atmosphere became ambiguous for a moment.

"My aunt is not here, so I'll leave first." Jian Liqiu stood up with an uncomfortable look on her face.

"Liqiu..." Ji Lei grabbed Jian Liqiu's hand, "Don't go!"

A blush quickly appeared on Jian Liqiu's cheeks.

My heartbeat was like the beating of a drum.

This was the first time in her life that she held hands with a boy.

She subconsciously tried to break free, but Ji Lei held her tightly.

There is a huge disparity in strength between men and women. If Ji Lei doesn't let go, she will not be able to break free.

"Li Qiu, don't worry, I will find a way to deal with the betrothal gift and will never let you suffer any injustice." Ji Lei hugged her in his arms.

Summer is hot, and even through the clothes, Jian Liqiu could feel Ji Lei's hot chest and beating heartbeat like a drum.

Two hearts have never been so close.

He was so close that her nose could smell his scent.

The smell of soap mixed with a slight scent of sweat made her heart beat wildly.

"Let me go." Jian Liqiu whispered.

"Li Qiu..." Ji Lei called her name softly.

My breathing seemed to have quickened a bit.

He lowered his head slightly, and his hot breath sprayed on her face.

It made her blush and her heart beat faster.

Jian Liqiu didn't dare to look Ji Lei in the eye. She was nervous and shy.

But that face was getting closer and closer, until their foreheads were touching and their breaths were intertwined.

Her head was dizzy and she seemed unable to think anymore, so she let him approach slowly.

Some things don't seem to need to be taught.

It will happen naturally.

Jingshi. Yisheng Clothing Store

Lu Yujing owns quite a few storefronts, and with the ones that Jian Qingyi acquired later, there are at least dozens of them, big and small. When opening his own store, Jian Qingyi naturally chooses a storefront with a good location and a large flow of people.

The most important thing is...

The businesses in this circle are all high-tech and sophisticated.

To put it simply, people who can come here to spend money all have some financial resources.

Ordinary people would not think of buying things here.

The storefront of Yisheng in Jingshi is more than twice as big as that of Yisheng in Nancheng.

Jian Qingyi also put a lot of effort into the decoration.

Even from a distance, you can tell that the things in this store are not cheap.

Yang Laosan's wife couldn't leave with her family, so Jian Qingyi asked her to stay in Nancheng. Sun Xiaocao, Ren Lingling and several other girls who didn't get into college came to Beijing.

Because the young girls have received training at Yisheng in Nancheng, they can start work right away.

Zhang Xiaomei, who wanted to earn some pocket money, also followed eagerly.

Seeing guests coming in, everyone was very enthusiastic.

Afraid of being outdone by others.
