Chapter 287 Heartbeat

"But this matter is ultimately a matter between two families. The Kong family is kind and righteous, and will not force a cow to drink water. So let me ask you what you think and whether you are willing to agree to this matter."

After Jin Quan finished speaking, he looked at Zhuang Ruman.

When Zhuang Ruman heard this, he was stunned.

A normal marriage turned out to be a arranged marriage, with her living daughter marrying a dead man who would be buried underground.

"As for this matter, the Kong family has said that it is a matter between the two families. If you agree to this, my brother, the Kong family will also remember your friendship. In the future, the two families will be real relatives. The money will be generously given to you. Three hundred taels of silver, and you don't have to worry about Yuanren's studies in the future. The Kong family will take care of everything and help with everything."

"If you don't want to do this, that's fine. The Kong family won't be angry. But to be honest, the Kong family really likes Yuan Ren. It's a pity that the two families don't have any fate in the future."

Jin Quan laughed, "Don't worry, my brother. The Kong family is not a stingy family. They will definitely not bear a grudge against you. Besides, since they were interested in discussing marriage before, they also asked me to give you ten taels of silver, which can be regarded as the hard work money during this period of time."

"Actually, I understand you, brother. After all, she is your own daughter, and you are not willing to let her suffer. It is also a good thing for the family to be reunited. With the ten taels of silver, I can find a suitable family for Qinghe and give her some dowry. It is not bad at all."

"I also know Qinghe. She has always been filial. She will definitely be filial to you in the future. I will definitely bring you delicious food and drinks."

"Ah, speaking of this, it reminds me of that disappointing girl in my family. Looking at her, I know what it means that a married girl is like spilled water. Girls in other families try every means to bring things home, but she tries every means to bring things to her husband's house. She always comes back empty-handed, and when she leaves, she wants to take back everything she can eat and use. It gives me a headache just looking at her..."

As Jin Quan kept talking here, Zhuang Ruman's brows became more and more furrowed.

If he doesn't agree to the Kong family's matter, then his family will just live a hard life as before, and Zhuang Yuanren will have to study even harder. As for Zhuang Qinghe, she will just be an ordinary person in the future. As Jin Quan said, she might even be a traitor and not only will she not be able to bring any benefits to her family, she might even take a bite out of them.

But if I agree to this marriage with the Kong family...

That's just like what Jin Quan said, they are real relatives. In the future, it's just a matter of getting some money. With three hundred taels of silver in hand, Zhuang Yuanren will have someone to help him.

Zhuang Ruman was very moved.

But if the news of sending a living daughter to marry a dead man were to get out, people would definitely criticize her.

It was okay for him to be poked in the spine, as he had been poked in the spine before in the past. The key point was Zhuang Yuanren.

If people knew that his father married his own daughter to a dead man for money, I'm afraid his academic career would be over.

When he thought of this, Zhuang Ruman looked at Jin Quan hesitantly. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Brother, don't worry. Since the Kong family is determined to do this, they will naturally not make it difficult for you. No one outside knows that Young Master Kong has passed away. This person is also placed in the ice coffin. Now everyone thinks he is alive. Qinghe's marriage will also be held according to the etiquette. Nothing will be lost. She will marry into the Kong family in a grand manner."

"After Qing He gets married, the Kong family will talk about Master Kong's death in a few days. As for Qing He, it will be two days later. They will only say that she is a loyal heroine who died for her husband. Naturally, outsiders will not say anything. They will also say that Qing He is loyal and righteous. Not only will it not affect Yuan Ren in the slightest, but it may even make others look up to her."

"In fact, the Kong family could have done this secretly without anyone noticing. But firstly, the Kong family is not a small family after all. They don't want to do things secretly and wrong their son, and they don't want to be caught and lose face. Secondly, they really like Yuanren and don't want this to affect his future."

"The Kong family has thought of everything that needs to be thought of. You don't have to worry about anything, brother."

Zhuang Ruman's last bit of worry was finally dispelled, and a smile appeared on his face. "The Kong family is indeed a big family. They think of everything so carefully. I will accept this."

"If that's the case, I will write back to the Kong family tomorrow and let Mr. Kong rest assured." Jin Quan was overjoyed.

"Brother, I have agreed to this matter, but please tell the Kong family that I have no ability and I am also thinking about the money. But after all, this is the only biological daughter of the Manchus. I am reluctant to give up this money..."

Zhuang Ruman paused and said, "Give me four hundred taels. Even numbers are better than odd numbers. It sounds better."

Jin Quan curled his lips secretly.

Four, death. That doesn’t sound good at all. But Zhuang Ruman saw that the person was going to die, so he just wanted to go all out and get more money.

This guy is really thick-skinned.

Although he despised them, Jin Quan still had a smile on his face. "That's what happened. I will talk to Mr. Kong about this tomorrow. But I also told you that as for the money, you asked for it, and the Kong family probably agreed to it. But since they agreed, there is no reason for you to raise the price. Although the Kong family is not short of money, they are not the kind of people who can be easily played with. If they get angry, this deal will not be done, and the relationship between the two families will be completely ruined."

"Besides, the date of birth is fixed, but people are alive. It is not difficult to find someone born on the same day in this world. It just costs more money, and the Kong family is not short of money..."

"I'm saying this, brother, you understand."

"I understand. I understand." Zhuang Rumen nodded hurriedly.

Zhuang Ruman knew that he could only speak up once for something like this.

In other words, it is precisely because I know it in my heart that I dare to say such things and want to get what I deserve.

"Come on, brother, drink." Zhuang Ruman hurriedly filled Jin Quan's empty glass with wine, and quickly put a chicken leg into his bowl, "Come on, eat some vegetables."

"Come, eat." Jin Quan picked up the chopsticks with a rosy face.

There were bursts of laughter in the room, and a dark shadow flashed past the window.
