Wangjiacun
After finishing their meal, Chen Zhaodi and Wang Yingxue continued chatting for a while.
After the conversation, Chen Zhaodi was certain that Wang Yingxue had not been abused by her uncle and aunt.
Because Wang Yingxue was very natural when she was with them, and she didn't seem timid at all.
She spoke with great poise and confidence, while Aunt Wang seemed rather introverted and didn't talk much.
However, while Chen Zhaodi was satisfied, whether the deal would ultimately be finalized still depended on Huang Jianguo's opinion.
She asked in a low voice, "Boss, what do you think? Would you like to spend more time together?"
Huang Jianguo had thought it over carefully. He didn't dislike Wang Yingxue, but he didn't really like her either.
After all, this was their first meeting, but Huang Jianguo felt pretty good chatting with Wang Yingxue.
He also felt that the other members of the Wang family were quite agreeable and easy to get along with.
He nodded and replied, "It's alright, we can continue to get to know each other."
Upon hearing Huang Jianguo's answer, Chen Zhaodi knew how to begin.
"Uncle Yingxue, Aunt Yingxue, I think your Yingxue and our Jianguo are quite a good match. What do you think?"
When Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang heard Chen Zhaodi's question, they both looked at Wang Yingxue.
Wang Yingxue felt a little excited, and her face felt slightly hot, but because she was a little dark-skinned, it wasn't very noticeable that she was blushing.
She nodded slightly, indicating to Uncle Wang and the others that she also thought it was a good idea.
Uncle Wang then smiled and said, "We also think the founding of the nation is great."
Aunt Wang and Chen Zhaodi both beamed with joy upon hearing this answer.
Chen Zhaodi was happy because both of her children, who had been troubled by marriage, had finally found partners.
Aunt Wang's reason was simply that if they got together, she would receive a large red envelope!
It was worth all her hard work, running back and forth so many times.
"In that case, we can let the two young people get to know each other better."
Chen Zhaodi had a good feeling about meeting the Wang family today, and she had forgotten what Aunt Wang had said before.
The Wang family said that if the matchmaking is successful, Wang Yingxue can go home with them that same day.
After all, what respectable person would go home with someone else on the first day of a blind date?
Even if it's fast, it still takes a few days to get to know each other.
However, Chen Zhaodi and the others forgot, but the Wang family did not.
Especially Wang Yingxue, who was even considering directly asking about the bride price. There was no other way; the Wang family was truly in a life-or-death emergency.
However, Aunt Wang didn't let her speak, fearing that if Wang Yingxue spoke now, she would have a hard time getting along with people in the Huang family.
Although Wang Yingxue did propose the fifty-yuan bride price, they were the ones who actually benefited. Therefore, they should be the ones to be the bad guys.
Aunt Wang mustered her courage and tried hard to control herself so her hands wouldn't tremble: "Um, I wanted to ask, what are your thoughts on the bride price we mentioned?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang immediately retracted her bared teeth.
She thought to herself with resentment: Who asks about the bride price right away? I thought I had misunderstood them. Turns out they really are 'bloodsuckers'.
Although they were somewhat surprised that Aunt Wang would suddenly bring up the matter of the bride price, they weren't unhappy because Aunt Wang had mentioned it from the beginning.
Chen Zhaodi replied gently, "We heard Aunt Wang mention this before. We are willing to accept a bride price of fifty yuan."
“Let’s let them get to know each other first, and then we’ll decide on the bride price and other things according to your ideas.”
Wang Yingxue's eyes lit up when she heard this. She quite liked Huang Jianguo, and now that Chen Zhaodi had indicated that a dowry of fifty yuan was no problem.
Ignoring Aunt Wang's objections, she said directly, "There's no need to continue seeing each other. I'll go back with you today to get our marriage certificate."
"Do you have any money on you? Why don't you give the betrothal gifts to my uncle and his family now?"
Huang family: ∑(O_O;)∑(O_O;)
Are they hallucinating?!
Huang Qinqin even wanted to slap her head to see if she had just hallucinated.
That's way too direct and too bold!
This is their first time meeting!
With trembling hands, Chen Zhaodi picked up the cup, intending to drink some water to calm her nerves.
Seeing that the Huang family members were silent and seemed dazed, Wang Yingxue assumed they hadn't heard her clearly, so she repeated herself.
"Did you bring any betrothal money? I can go back with you today."
"Cough cough cough!"
Chen Zhaodi, who had just taken a sip of water and hadn't even swallowed it yet, was startled again.
She didn't dare drink any more water. She quickly calmed herself down and said somewhat flusteredly, "Well, I did bring it, but isn't it a bit inappropriate to get the marriage certificate today?"
Wang Yingxue asked sincerely, "But I'm going to get married. Doesn't Comrade Huang Jianguo think the same way?"
This was indeed Wang Yingxue's true thought. She believed that since both parties felt it was a good match, they would get married sooner or later.
She was only a little bit ahead of schedule, it's no big deal.
Wang Yingxue was mainly afraid that if she couldn't get married again, she would really bankrupt her uncle's family.
She earned a lot of work points, but she ate even more!
Huang Jianguo felt somewhat helpless as Wang Yingxue looked at him with a slightly reproachful gaze.
This isn't about whether he's aiming for marriage; it's about the fact that they've only met for the first time today. If they get a marriage certificate right after meeting, isn't she afraid of being sold off?
"Of course, I'm also looking to get married, but..."
Huang Jianguo was interrupted by Wang Yingxue before he could finish speaking.
Wang Yingxue looked at him very seriously and said, "That's right! We're both aiming for marriage, so let's get married!"
It's over...
Seeing Wang Yingxue's serious expression, Huang Jianguo suddenly realized that what she said made sense.
Huang Jianguo looked at Chen Zhaodi and asked with his eyes: Mom, what do we do now?
Chen Zhaodi replied with her eyes: "You are responsible for your own affairs, don't ask me."
After hesitating for a moment, Huang Jianguo finally asked the question that had been bothering him: "May I ask why you're in such a hurry to get married today?"
Wang Yingxue was conflicted. Should she tell the truth?
Should we just say they're short of money? That doesn't seem like the right thing to do.
Tell them the truth, that you ate so much that you ate your uncle's house dry?
No, no!
Wang Yingxue immediately rejected the idea; if she told them, she might never be able to get married.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Yingxue decided to tell a white lie.
