"Xiaoqin and the third son of the Shen family, is there any room for negotiation? The Shen family said they really can't afford so much money!"
"They are all good kids. It would be a shame if they were ruined because of this."
Zhang Guilan said nonchalantly: "It's impossible to have less money. Our Xiaoqin will have no trouble finding a husband. If the Shen family misses this opportunity, they will never have another chance!"

After saying this, Mrs. Qing insisted on leaving, despite the Li couple's repeated attempts to keep her.
When Li Jianbang and his wife returned to the house, Zhang Guilan grabbed his arm and asked, "What should we do? Is the Shen family going to fail?"
