Meng Huanghe narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Ningning's betrothal gift is two hundred. I'm marrying my daughter, not selling her. It's up to you, village chief!"
The village chief felt that Meng Xue should not be wronged, so he agreed to give her sixty-six yuan.
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Meng Huanghe asked the village chief to write a certificate stating that Meng Xue was his biological daughter before leaving.
He took the certificate and went to the town.
Meng Xue was translating a book in the bookstore at this time. She felt someone approaching and asked, "What book do you need?"
Seeing that the other party didn't speak for a long time, she stopped writing and looked up at him.
She saw who the other person was and stood up in surprise.
"Boss, you're back?"
Li Jiaming was curious about what Meng Xue was doing with her head down, so he kept staring at her, but he didn't expect that she was translating.
"Comrade Meng Xue, do you know foreign languages?"
Meng Xue glanced at the book she had translated and smiled slightly.
"Know a little bit, this is also for making a living!"
Li Jiaming chuckled. "Just to eat? Don't your family members give you food?"
Meng Xue shook her head. "No, I don't have a home anymore. I'm just temporarily living in my uncle's house. After all, I'm not a child anymore. It's not convenient to always live in someone else's house!"
Li Jiaming frowned, "How can you not have a home? Where are your parents?"
Meng Xue didn't know how to explain it to him and sighed.
"I am now an orphan and alone. I just found a translation job to support myself!"
Li Jiaming chuckled, "I'm also alone, relying on this small bookstore to support my family. Would you consider living with me?"
Meng Xue didn't understand what he meant, "What do you mean by living together?"
Li Jiaming touched his chin and thought for a while before saying, "It's about helping each other and supporting each other.
If you want, we can live together as a couple."
Meng Xue understood what he meant, which was to get married and become husband and wife!
"Uncle, you are over 30, it seems inappropriate to live with a girl like me who is 18 or 19!"
Li Jiaming adjusted his glasses and smiled.
"Uncle? Am I that old?"
Meng Xue nodded, "Compared to me, he is indeed a bit older, and he is also a bit frivolous.
We said we were friends before, but now you are being disrespectful...
Do you think it's appropriate to hook up with a beautiful girl like me? "
Li Jiaming really admires Meng Xue and thinks that this studious girl is rare.
He felt that the two of them had common interests and hobbies, and it would be nice if they could live together.
Unexpectedly, the little girl immediately distanced herself from him, called him uncle, and distanced themselves from each other.
It's really a love-hate thing.
What to do? He likes her even more!
"Comrade Meng Xue, I was just joking, don't take it seriously! We are indeed friends!"
Meng Xue pursed her lips and smiled, "Comrade Jiaming, I know you are joking, so I am playing along with you.
In fact, you are not old at all, and you are quite charming! "
Li Jiaming approached her and asked curiously, "Oh, what charm?"
Meng Xue was startled by his sudden approach.
Reached out and pushed him away.
"Scum... scum"
When Li Jiaming heard her words, he was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Comrade Meng Xue, you are really interesting, but I like gentle people, forget about scum!"
Meng Xue also realized that Li Jiaming was deliberately teasing her.
"Boss Jiaming, since you're back, I'll hand the bookstore back to you. I still have work to do, so I'll leave first!"
