Chapter 124 Who is afraid of whom
Let me tell you, the Ji family really likes your Liu Jinye."
"I know, but it's also true that their family didn't like ours."
"What's the big deal? Aren't they just a couple?"
Li Hongmei hurriedly nodded.
She really wanted to make this marriage happen.
But He Zhu shook her head:
"They haven't even been together yet, how come they're a couple?
Hongmei, your statement is inappropriate."
Li Hongmei quickly changed her words:
"Okay, let's wait until they are married before we talk about them being a couple.
But I tell you, the reason I came here this time is that I hope you and Liu Qi will go to the city together to meet the Ji family.
What do you think about discussing the marriage of our two children?
As for the betrothal gift, the Ji family has also said that they won’t ask for much.
According to the city's standards, two yuan is enough.
Look how reasonable they are.”
He Zhu immediately said:
"What? Two taels? Where can we find so much dowry?"
"Azhu, stop pretending with me.
Your two sons are in the army, and Liu Qi is the captain.
Don't you have any money saved?
What are these two yuan? Our husband, Mr. He, only makes 70 or 80 yuan a month.”
“That’s your Lao He, not ours.
Hongmei, let alone the fact that they have nothing in common now, just the bride price.
In any case, our family can’t afford it.”
Li Hongmei seemed to be anxious, and continued:
"Azhu, you have to think carefully, if you miss this opportunity, you will lose this store.
Ji Nan's family is very well off.
I promise that within three months, I will help Liu Jin's career move to a higher level."
He Zhu sighed:
"So did he get married? Or did he get a chance to get promoted?"
These words left Li Hongmei speechless for a moment.
“Isn’t this a matter of killing two birds with one stone?
I got married and had the opportunity to get promoted and make money."
"Yes, but don't even think about coming to our house anymore.
Is the third son in our family going to get married?
Or should I become someone's son-in-law?"
"So what if I'm a live-in son-in-law? Isn't that pretty cool?
Some people want this opportunity, but it's not there yet."
Li Hongmei continued to talk incessantly and eloquently.
To be honest, it would be a waste of her talent if she didn't become a matchmaker.
When the two people were chatting in the yard, Liu Yu could hear it clearly through the door.
After listening to almost everything and realizing that her mother was no match for Li Hongmei, Liu Yu pushed the door open and walked in.
"Aunt, you are such a rare guest.
I didn't expect you to come so soon?"
"Oh, it's Xiaoyu, why are you here?"
As soon as Liu Yu entered the yard, he exchanged glances with He Zhu.
Li Hongmei also saw all this.
She immediately realized that Liu Yu must have said something to her mother.
So she was somewhat dissatisfied:
"Xiao Yu, my cousin wants to ask you, after you came back that day, did you tell your mother about meeting Ji Nan and the other girls?"
"Yes, aunt, I didn't exaggerate. I told the truth."
Li Hongmei's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind.
He did not bother with Liu Yu, but turned to He Zhuyu:
"Azhu, don't listen to Xiaoyu's one-sided words.
