Can...
After hearing Xiao Gui say a few words, the matchmaker dared not make a guarantee anymore.
"Comrade Xu Fang, I hope we can get married as soon as possible. My mother has raised me all these years on her own, and it hasn't been easy. After you marry me, I hope you can take good care of her."
"One more thing, my mother said that if you marry into our family, you have to abide by our family rules. You must give birth to a big, healthy boy within a year. If you give birth to a girl, you have to raise her yourself. Our family will not help you."
At this point, Xiao Gui seemed a little thirsty, so he stopped and took a sip of hot water.
The matchmaker suddenly realized what was happening, looked at Xu Fang and Xu Fang, and it took her a while to find her voice.
"Comrade Xu Fang, it's good to have a son. Look how well-off Comrade Xiao's family is. After you go there, you'll have so much to do and won't be idle at all. Plus, you'll have another mother to take care of every day, even more carefully than you would your father."
The matchmaker glanced at Xiao Gui and saw that he was still the same as before, completely oblivious, which reassured her considerably.
"Comrade Xu Fang, you should think this over carefully. Such good conditions are rare."
The matchmaker emphasized the importance of the word "good" in her voice, saying that whether Xu Fang could understand it was entirely up to her.
She's a matchmaker, not someone who sends people to suffer.
If she had known Xiao Gui was like this, she would never have accepted him, no matter what he said!
If she weren't afraid to offend him, she would have liked to teach him a lesson herself. Now, she can only rely on Xu Fang herself. She must not be deceived by Xiao Gui's good looks.
Physical appearances may change, but human nature never does!
"You're right, it's rare to find someone with such good conditions as me."
After saying that, Xiao Gui looked at Xu Fang smugly, his eyes seeming to say,
This incredible deal is right in front of you; you shouldn't miss it.
The sight of her made Li Yiyi's hands itch with desire. This wasn't looking for a partner; it was clearly looking for a live-in helper, and a full-time one at that, without pay.
There is no lower limit; Xiao Gui keeps lowering their standards.
“Xu Fang, my mother also said that our family is not well-off, so we can forget about the bride price. But your family is well-off, so the dowry can't be less. If it's less than five hundred, I won't marry you.”
With a slight tilt of his head, Xiao Gui looked at Xu Fang with a rather proud expression, as if to say, "You should be grateful that you've met someone as good as me!"
"Comrade Xiao Gui, I think you've misunderstood..."
"Don't say anything more, Comrade Xu Fang, I know your feelings."
Interrupting Xu Fang, Xiao Gui gave her a look that said, "You don't need to say anything more," his confidence making people quite uncomfortable.
In an instant, a layer of shiny oil stains covered the fair face, making it look rather nauseating.
"Comrade Xiao Gui, please shut up."
Xu Fang tried to hold back, but ultimately couldn't resist. The little bit of goodwill she initially had for Xiao Gui was worn away by his overconfidence.
"Comrade Xu Fang, my mother said that women shouldn't have such a temper..."
"I told you to shut up."
A glass of water was splashed directly in Xiao Gui's face; Xu Fang really couldn't stand it anymore.
“Your mother said, your mother said, are you out of your mind or can’t live without your mother? If you really can’t live without her, hurry back to your mother’s embrace and stop causing trouble for others.”
"Also, your family's conditions are just too good; I'm not good enough for you."
Before Xiao Gui could react, Xu Fang blurted out everything she wanted to say. At that moment, Xu Fang was extremely doubtful of her own luck.
She always seems to meet some really weird people.
Zhu Kou was one, and Xiao Gui was another; the moment they showed a hint of affection, before it could deepen, their true nature was immediately revealed.
"Father, let's go!"
Turning around, the smile on Mr. Xu's face hadn't faded yet. Father and daughter looked at each other, both stunned.
In the end, it was Xu's father who had more experience; his smile instantly turned into sadness.
“Daughter, let’s go. Don’t worry, even if you never get married, Dad will take care of you for the rest of your life.”
The change happened in an instant. Upon closer inspection, Xu Fang saw a look of both understanding and distress in her father's eyes.
A wave of sadness washed over her; she must have been mistaken. Why was her father laughing?
"Father, I..."
Choked with emotion, Xu Fang had so much to say, but couldn't utter a single word.
"Daughter, Dad understands."
A smile played in Mr. Xu's eyes; his daughter had grown a little more.
Suddenly, he met a pair of eyes—it was Boss Li. Caught red-handed, Xu's father was a little embarrassed, but he was met with a look of admiration from Boss Li.
It's confirmed; they share the same father, and have found kindred spirits.
Li Laoda never expected that Xu's father would be so ruthless.
He thought he had been ruthless enough, but he never expected there would be someone even more ruthless; Xu's father was his role model.
However, after looking at my daughter,
Li Laoda felt he didn't need to worry as much as Xu's father. First, his daughter was still young, and it was anyone's guess when she would mature. Second, the people his daughter had met were all quite normal—Lang Yi and Si Minzhao, for one thing, their values were sound.
Unlike Xu Fang, who encountered mostly complicated and difficult-to-describe people.
No wonder Xu's father was so ruthless. If he hadn't, and had met someone who was even slightly good at pretending, once they were actually together, his true colors would have been revealed, and Xu Fang would have been the one to suffer.
Having discovered how good his daughter was, Li Laoda decided to show more affection to Li Yiyi when he got back, at least not to disturb her when she secretly ate pig's trotters at night.
Li Yiyi was startled to receive a look of pity from her father; she hadn't seen that look in a long time.
The last time was when she was a baby, before her father changed.
