Chapter 2472
In fact, according to Ruan Chi's current net worth, he can definitely afford the 18,000 yuan betrothal gift, and he can also afford the wine and drinks.
But having it is one thing, and whether it can be done is another.
The average wage per capita is still around 700-800 yuan. According to the standard in Xiahe Village, the betrothal gift can be three times the wage, which is 1,800 yuan.
But the Yang family asked for 18,000 yuan right away, which was obviously not in accordance with the rules. They knew that the Ruan family had money, so they wanted to ask for a lot and treat their daughter as a cash cow.
In recent years, Yang Xiaona has subsidized the family and supported her two younger sisters to study. She is willing to do so, no matter how much she subsidizes.
But she can't stand them treating Ruan Chi as a fat sheep.
Because she knew better than anyone how greedy people are. Once they succeeded this time, there would be countless times in the future.
So when the Yang family made these requests, she almost immediately rejected them.
And her parents had obviously checked the Ruan family. No matter how determined Yang Xiaona was, they refused to give in. They even said bluntly that if the Ruan family was unwilling to do these things, then wait for the child to be born as a bastard!
Bastard.
Although Yang Xiaona knew what her parents were like, she still couldn't help feeling deeply desperate.
Ruan Jiaojiao had experienced Yang Xiaona's parents when she was in high school. Although she didn't say it clearly, Ruan Jiaojiao also vaguely guessed something. She glanced at Yang Xiaona, who was full of sadness, and didn't say anything. She just reached out and held her hand, silently comforting her.
After returning to the Ruan family, Yang Xiaona still needed to rest. She ate something and went to sleep in the guest room. When Ruan Jiaojiao came out of her room, she saw Ruan Lin and Ruan Chi talking about the wedding in the living room.
Naturally, she soon knew what the Yang family's parents meant.
Ruan Lin had not lived in the countryside for many years, and her temper was far less hot than before, but when she heard Ruan Chi's words "Then wait for that child to be a bastard", her face still became very ugly. After a few angry curses, she felt a little better.
She turned around and asked Ruan Chi: "What do you mean?"
"I'm watching Xiaona." Influenced by Liu Zhaodi at the time, Ruan Chi knew how much the Yang family's behavior could not be tolerated.
After all, it was a major event in the lives of both parties, and he was willing to give in on this occasion.
But he is not a member of Ruan Jiandang, and no one should think of taking advantage of him.
But even just this time, Yang Xiaona refused to give in.
Usually, she was willing to put Ruan Chi's wishes first in many things, but this time, she seemed to be particularly stubborn. No matter how Ruan Chi persuaded her or how he said that he could solve future problems, she refused.
So now the matter of getting the marriage certificate is at a stalemate.
After listening to Ruan Chi's meaning, Ruan Lin sighed and didn't know what to say.
She knew that Yang Xiaona had always been very sensible. When she first recognized her as her goddaughter, Ruan Lin was actually afraid that her parents would get involved, but later she didn't know what she said to her parents. Except for the recognition ceremony, Yang's parents never looked for them.
"This child must be feeling miserable, you should spend more time with her." Ruan Lin could only sigh and say this.
Ruan Jiaojiao sat on the side without saying anything, but her eyes flashed with thought, and then her eyes lit up.
