That's right, in Lü Shoujian's heart, the two of them were not a good match. Of course, Liang Zhongmei was not good enough for him, Lü Shoujian.

Lu Shoujian's family used to be quite wealthy, but after something happened, Lu Shoujian ended up like this. His family used to let him study painting, but he only graduated from high school.

Lu Shoujian felt that he was very outstanding and that he would definitely rise to prominence in the future, becoming a dragon among men, while Liang Zhongmei was just a worker and was not worthy of him at all.

In the past, they were like stars in the sky and dust on the ground—how could they possibly be a good match? Even if he's fallen on hard times, he shouldn't be bullied by dogs.

Although he looked down on Liang Zhongmei, he knew that the reality was that he could only find a girl like Liang Zhongmei to be his girlfriend or his future wife. In any case, Liang Zhongmei could give him money and admired him.

That's why he felt that coming to Liang Zhongmei's house was a favor he was doing for her, and that Liang Zhongmei should be grateful and her family should be flattered, not like this, which made him very uncomfortable.

They didn't take him seriously at all. When he arrived, they didn't even offer him a cup of tea. He wanted to see the house's interior design and see if he could set up an art studio or something, but they locked the door, which made him very unhappy.

In addition, this woman is bringing in all sorts of things, which has instantly lowered the overall quality of this place.

“This is my boyfriend, Lü Shoujian. Sister-in-law, why did you bring back so many things? The house is already small, it looks terrible.”

Liang Zhongmei could tell that Lü Shoujian was unhappy, so she quickly turned her attention to Yin Yilan.

This made Yin Yilan a little embarrassed. It turned out to be the girl's boyfriend. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'll take it to the room now. Don't worry, it won't affect you at all. I've found that it's hard to find a job in the city, so I've decided to take on some handicrafts first."

Of course, I won't give up on finding a job.

Even so, Yin Yilan also felt that the city was pretty good. Putting aside everything else, there really weren't many ways to make money in their village.

After Yin Yilan said that, Liang Zhongmei couldn't say anything more, mainly because her mother was watching from the other side.

"Then hurry up, we're about to eat. My mom even saved some food for you. She's even closer to you than her own daughter."

Yin Yilan wasn't angry at all; in fact, she was quite happy.

"Then I'll go."

Yin Yilan quickly took all her things back to her room before coming out. Mo Yan also came over and sat down.

Lu Shoujian still had a very arrogant look on his face, with the words "Keep away, strangers" written all over his face.

"Shoujian, right? Where are you from? What's going on between you and my daughter Damei?"

Mo Yan believed that there was nothing wrong with asking the question. Since you're here, you should at least tell us what's going on with you.

Upon hearing this, Lü Shoujian frowned. He knew this family wanted to force him into marriage, which was truly unreasonable.

"Auntie, I came here today to see if your family is easy to get along with, and also to talk about whether we should get married in the future."

I have certain requirements regarding the family's financial situation. At the very least, there should be an art studio in the house; I don't want it to be so cramped..."

Before he could finish speaking, Mo Yan interrupted him, "So you want to become a live-in son-in-law?"

Lu Shoujian was furious when he heard this. How could this be!

How could he possibly become a live-in son-in-law?

He's supposed to carry on the family line, you know!

"Liang Zhongmei, what are you doing? What did you tell your mother? How could I possibly become a live-in son-in-law?"

Mo Yan slammed her chopsticks down heavily. "Then what were you saying just now?"

What do you think of our family? You mentioned wanting an art studio; aren't you just trying to become a live-in son-in-law? But there's one thing you might be mistaken about."

Mo Yan looked at him indifferently, her eyes filled with coldness. "Even if you want to be my family's son-in-law, with your attitude, I still won't agree."

"If we really come to your door, you have no right to make demands. Your child will take my family name, and the money you earn will be spent by my family, how about that?"

Lu Shoujian suddenly turned to leave, yelling at them as he went, "Incomprehensible! Incomprehensible! You are all utterly unreasonable! I cannot agree to this! I absolutely will not agree to this!"

Liang Zhongmei followed Lü Shoujian, saying, "Mom, you've gone too far. I won't forgive you. I'm going to go with Shoujian."

Mo Yan raised an eyebrow and pointed to the front door, "Take care, don't bother seeing me out."

Having said all that, Lü Shoujian gritted his teeth and left, though he regretted not having eaten first; the dishes looked quite delicious.

Liang Zhongmei quickly chased after him, grabbing Lü Shoujian and preventing him from leaving. "Shoujian, don't go, don't be angry."

Lu Shoujian glared angrily at Liang Zhongmei with a dark expression, almost ready to strike.

"How could I not be angry? My family doesn't really consider me their son-in-law. Look at what your mother said, and what is your sister-in-law doing? Bringing such filthy things into the house. I'm disgusted."

Your whole family is just petty bourgeois. You don't know anything about style or sophistication, and you have no idea how to live.

Hearing Lü Shoujian say these things, Liang Zhongmei was not angry at all, and kept nodding, "Yes, yes, you are right."

It has to be said that some people deserve to be punished; what can you do if they're the ones who eagerly seek it out?

Liang Zhongmei was practically begging to be scolded by Lü Shoujian; it was a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit.

Seeing Liang Zhongmei's submissive demeanor, Lü Shoujian finally felt a little better, but that didn't mean he could let the matter rest. He glared at Liang Zhongmei with a dark expression.

"What's the use of knowing I'm right? Liang Zhongmei, you actually lied to me! What did you say before? You said your mother would love her daughter, and that if we were together, your mother would unconditionally support my painting. But look at your mother's face, she doesn't respect me at all. How can you expect me to believe that we can have a future?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Zhongmei realized that Shoujian wanted to break up with her! No, no, she really loved Shoujian and thought he was exceptionally talented.

She loved watching him paint, loved the way he recited poetry, loved everything about him.

"Don't be angry, really don't be angry. I'll go and have my mom apologize to you, okay?"

Don't worry, you definitely have a studio. Or how about we rent a place to live?

"Living with my mom and them might make you angry, which wouldn't be good. How about we rent a place outside? What do you think?"

Lü Shoujian was willing, of course, but he didn't have the money. "Then it will cost more money. Let me tell you, all my money is going to be put into art."

"You don't need to spend the money, I'll pay!"
