Chapter 133: Just marry our Xiaohong
Xiaohong's mother changed her disgusted expression and smiled as she pulled Shu Chen and others into the house.
There was heating in the house and it warmed up instantly.
"Oh, my family is not well off, please don't look down on me."
Xiaohong's mother brought hot tea, and her eyes were fixed on Shu Chen, smiling and never moving away.
"Mother, go and cook a few more dishes."
"Hey, I'll go right away."
"The food isn't ready yet. These are our homemade snacks. If you don't mind, you can try them."
Xiaohong's father pushed the food in front of him to the three of them.
Shu Yue approached Chen Xueer and whispered, "Why do I feel that this family is a little too enthusiastic?"
Chen Xueer replied, "Really? I think it's quite normal. It would be abnormal if you weren't enthusiastic when you met someone who sponsored your daughter's schooling."
"Mr. Shu, who are these two?"
Xiaohong's grandfather's eyes moved back and forth between Shu Yue and Chen Xueer, and he felt uncomfortable seeing them.
"My sister and my friend."
Shu Chen gave a brief introduction.
"Sister and friend, is she a girlfriend?"
Chen Xueer smiled and was about to say yes when she was interrupted by Shu Chen.
"Not yet."
Not yet, but maybe in the future?
Chen Xueer thought that according to his usual behavior, he would directly say no, they were just ordinary friends, but this time he said not yet, it seemed that he was acknowledging the change in their relationship, which meant that it would not be long before he could completely win over Shu Chen.
"So what's wrong with your hand?"
They started to care about Shu Chen's hand again, and kept chatting with Shu Chen, not paying much attention to Shu Yue and Chen Xueer.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back."
There was a voice coming from outside the house. It was a teenage boy. He was dirty and his clothes were torn. It was obvious that he had been in a fight with someone.
"Who did you fight with again, little brat?"
Xiaohong's father walked up to him and pulled him into the house with dissatisfaction.
"We have a distinguished guest at home, so hurry up and clean yourself up."
"This kid in our family is very naughty, but he is a very good person. He has a kind heart and is not a bad person. He fights to help his classmates. When his classmates are bullied, he stands up for justice."
Xiaohong's father hurried to explain.
Soon, Xiaohong and her mother prepared the meal and everyone sat at the table.
Grandpa Xiaohong took out the wine he brewed, poured a glass and handed it to Shu Chen.
"I'm sorry, old man. I can't drink. I'm allergic to alcohol."
“Oh, I see.”
Grandpa Xiaohong had no choice but to put the wine in front of himself.
"Teacher Shu, this is my specialty, please try it."
Xiaohong picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it into Shu Chen's bowl. Shu Chen clearly felt the unfriendly gaze from Chen Xueer. He took it but did not eat it.
"Thanks."
"Speaking of which, thanks to Teacher Shu, our Xiaohong was able to finish high school and is now in college. Xiaohong was sponsored by Teacher Shu. But it's different for our Xiaoming. After finishing this semester, he may not be able to go to the third year of high school next semester."
Xiaohong's mother sighed deeply.
"Then I'll find him a hard labor job in the city so he can support himself."
The couple sang the same tune, and Shu Yue and the other two finally understood. Wasn't this a disguised way of asking Shu Chen to continue supporting Xiao Hong while also supporting her brother Xiao Ming?
"Mom and Dad, I told you I'd find a way to get my brother's money. Teacher Shu has already helped our family a lot, so we can't trouble him anymore."
"The little money you earn from your part-time job is not even enough to cover your brother's living expenses."
Xiaohong's mother cursed her secretly, then looked at Shu Chen with a smile.
"Teacher Shu, our Xiao Ming's grades are pretty good. Maybe his college entrance examination score is better than his sister's. There is absolutely no problem in supporting him."
"Yes, Xiao Ming has been smart and sensible since he was young. He will definitely repay you when he gets into a good university and finds a good job in the future."
The whole family sang the same tune, except Xiao Ming, who didn't care at all. He ate happily and crossed his legs high.
"It's not easy for our family. I only make 3,000 yuan a month, and the child's mother has to take care of the old and the young at home. It's simply not enough to support the whole family."
As he said this, Xiaohong's father burst into tears.
[Oh my god, isn’t this moral kidnapping? 】
Shu Yue complained disgustedly.
"That's enough. I'll pay for Xiao Ming's tuition. Look at your behavior. Your money came from the wind. You sponsored Xiao Hong, and now you want to sponsor Xiao Ming?"
Grandpa Xiaohong, who had been silent, finally spoke.
"It seems that there are still normal people in this family."
Shu Yue and Chen Xueer were complaining, but the next second, her grandfather said something even more shocking.
"Xiao Shu, Xiao Hong's parents are a bit biased towards boys and have always treated Xiao Hong badly. Half of the money you gave to Xiao Ming was given to buy new clothes, new toys, and new phones, but Xiao Hong was always the one withheld."
He sighed deeply, reached out and held Shu Chen's only good hand, tears in his eyes.
"I am old and my time is running out. When I am gone, there will be no one to take care of Xiaohong. Since you don't have a girlfriend and you are not married, can you marry our Xiaohong?"
Shu Chen:? ? ?
Shu Yue:? ? ?
Chen Xueer:? ? ?
"Grandpa Xiaohong, marriage is not something that can be handled casually. Xiaohong is only 19 years old. Although she is an adult, she is not yet of legal age for marriage. The most important thing for her now is to study, graduate from college, and then find a good job..."
"I only have this one granddaughter. If I'm gone, no one will really care about her. Xiaoshu, you're a good child. I feel relieved to leave Xiaohong to you. There's no rush to get the marriage certificate. You can hold the wedding first. I've seen that the third day of next month is a good date. As for the betrothal gift, you can give whatever you want. One hundred thousand or two hundred thousand is fine."
Before Shu Chen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiaohong's grandfather.
Shu Yue laughed out loud, "Okay, I know what this family is up to. You've gone through so much trouble just to play the emotional card. Do you want my brother to marry Xiaohong?"
"Is 200,000 yuan enough for selling my daughter as a betrothal gift? My brother is very rich and can even afford 20 million yuan. Do you want my brother to give you 20 million yuan as a betrothal gift?"
They knew that Shu Chen was rich, otherwise he would not have sponsored Xiaohong to go to school, but they were still shocked when they heard the 20 million.
Grandpa Xiaohong's hands were shaking as he held the wine glass. "Really? Are you really going to give me 20 million?"
He is so shameless that he is invincible.
"You guys really have wishful thinking. Others have a full banquet at the Hongmen Banquet, but with these dishes, you want to sell your daughter to a rich family?"
Shu Yue rolled her eyes silently. People like this are shameless vampires.
Xiaohong’s father slammed the table.
"What do you mean by selling? We are doing this for Xiaohong's own good. Our Xiaohong has good grades, is pretty, and is young. It is your blessing to be your wife. Don't be ungrateful. If you don't marry her, you will never be able to leave this door!"
