Chapter 412: The Difference Between Living Off a Wife and Marrying into a Wife's Family



Everyone has their own aspirations.

Ever since Li Yiping made up his mind to be a gigolo, he no longer worked. He just dressed himself up like a decent person every day and hung around outside some luxury stores, hoping that some rich woman entering or leaving the stores would take a fancy to him.

I have to say that Li Yiping is quite good-looking. After he hung around outside the luxury store for a while, a young lady actually came over and added him on WeChat.

Unfortunately, these young ladies were not the rich women he wanted. After finding out about the young ladies' personalities, Li Yiping gave up decisively. He could not give up his plan of living off them for their sake.

Today, Li Yiping was wandering outside an LV store. It has been more than a month since he started this journey, and he has almost spent all the savings he earned from working intermittently.

In a few days, if no rich woman takes a fancy to him, he will run out of food.

It would be a lie for Li Yiping to say that he was not in a hurry. He had already made plans. He would hold on for three more days at most. If no rich woman came to him, he would take the initiative.

Near noon, Li Yiping saw a fashionably dressed woman walk into the LV store in front of him. In less than twenty minutes, the woman came out carrying several LV bags.

Li Yiping deliberately moved closer to the woman, but unfortunately the woman just glanced at him, passed him by, and walked away without looking back. It was obvious that his appearance did not meet her aesthetic standards.

This was not the first time that Li Yiping had encountered such a situation, which made him doubt whether his appearance was far inferior to that of Senior Li. Could he really have a chance to enjoy the delicious life of a gigolo?

Just as Li Yiping was staring at the woman's receding back in a daze, a voice suddenly sounded from behind him: "Brother, if you like her, chase her and ask for her WeChat openly!"

Li Yiping turned around and found that the person who was talking was a young man who was even more handsome than him. The first thought that popped into his mind was, is this guy also planning to be a gigolo?

If so, then he would have to avoid the other party.

Li Yiping had this thought in his mind, but he sighed, "She didn't even look at me. It's obvious that I'm not her type. It's just a waste of time to chase after her."

At this point, Li Yiping said tentatively: "Brother, you are so handsome, if you chase him and ask for his WeChat, maybe there will be a chance!"

The handsome young man smiled and said, "No, I have a wife and I can't make mistakes."

Li Yiping heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That was my misunderstanding!"

The handsome young man extended his hand and introduced himself: "My name is Jiang Feng, Jiang for Yangtze River, Feng for maple leaf, and I'm from the Happy Matchmaking Agency."

Although Li Yiping was surprised by Jiang Feng's identity as a matchmaker, he still reached out and shook hands with Jiang Feng, and introduced himself: "My name is Li Yiping, Muzi Li, Yi means escape, Ping means safe, nice to meet you."

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Brother, I can see that you are still single. I have a high-quality client that I want to introduce to you. Are you interested?"

Since he had nothing to do, Li Yiping asked, "What kind of high-quality customers are they?"

Jiang Feng briefly introduced her: "She is 25 years old, 1.61 meters tall, and has a good figure, but she looks ordinary.

The reason why I rated her as a high-quality customer is that she has her own business. She is currently running a couples cafe and earns one to eight hundred thousand dollars a year. "

Hearing this, Li Yiping's eyes suddenly lit up.

He was mentally prepared to live off a gigolo and regarded the senior from their Li family as his idol. However, he did not intend to learn from Senior Li. Even though Senior Li was the most awesome gigolo in the country, he might not have the appetite to eat the kind of gigolo that Senior Li lived off.

After all, the girl that Senior Li was living with at the time was more than 40 years younger than him. When Senior Li was in his prime, the other party was already an old lady in her seventies.

The gigolo that this matchmaker Jiang introduced to me is pretty good. Even though she's a little ordinary looking, she's of the same age, so it's much better than marrying an old lady.

Earning one to eight hundred thousand a year is not as rich as the rich woman he imagined, but it is enough for him to live a decent life.

While Li Yiping was thinking, Jiang Feng continued, "This couple's cafe is only one of my client's sources of income. She also has another source of income, which is dividends from the village."

At this point, Jiang Feng asked with a smile: "Brother, have you heard of the name of XX Village?"

Li Yiping was shocked when he heard this, and asked in a trembling voice: "Matchmaker Jiang, is your client from XX village?"

As a man determined to live off his wife, Li Yiping had naturally heard of the famous wealthy village in Shenzhen. It was said that there were many villagers in this village with a net worth of over 100 million yuan. Even if they were doing poorly, they had a net worth of tens of millions, which made countless people envious and jealous.

"It seems that you know the name of this village." Jiang Feng smiled and nodded, "My client is indeed from XX Village. Her village gets one to two million in dividends every year. Even if her family of three does nothing, they can still get several million from the village every year. They are truly rich people."

Li Yiping felt extremely excited after hearing this, this is the perfect gigolo!

Jiang Feng asked with a smile: "Brother, tell me whether you like this kind of person or not?"

Of course Li Yiping liked it, but he was still able to stay awake and asked, "Matchmaker Jiang, is what you told me true?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Let me tell you something you don't like to hear. You really have nothing worth lying to me about."

Li Yiping thought about it and it made sense. His current net worth was less than 300 yuan, which could be said to be extremely poor. Even if a swindler wanted to commit fraud, he would not look for a guy like him who could not be squeezed for much money no matter how hard he tried.

Well, this is most likely true.

Thinking of this, Li Yiping's heart started pounding. He asked, "Matchmaker Jiang, there's no reason why I wouldn't like a partner with such good conditions. I just don't know what her requirements are for her other half?"

Jiang Feng said: "Of course there are requirements, and they are not low."

Li Yiping's heart tightened, and he asked, "What are the requirements?"

"First, the height cannot be less than 1.78 meters."

Li Yiping was delighted, as his height of 1.83 meters obviously met the first requirement.

"Second, you have to be handsome enough."

Before meeting Jiang Feng, Li Yiping was quite confident about his appearance, otherwise he would not have the idea of ​​living off her.

But now, Li Yiping was a little unsure whether his appearance could meet the requirements, so he asked nervously: "Matchmaker Jiang, does my appearance meet the requirements?"

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry about this. If you don't meet this requirement, I won't come to you."

Li Yiping breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "What about the third one?"

"Third, both your IQ and EQ must meet the requirements. From what I've observed, you should also meet the requirements, buddy."

He met three requirements in a row, and Li Yiping couldn't help but smile.

"The fourth, and most important, point is that the man can accept marrying into the family."

The smile on Li Yiping's face froze suddenly. This request was too unexpected. After he made the decision to be a gigolo, he had thought that he would encounter various unacceptable situations.

For example, the age difference between him and the rich woman is too big. Just thinking about eating and sleeping with an old lady in her seventies or eighties, and maybe even handing in homework to her, how many young men can bear it?

For example, if a rich woman is too ugly, so ugly that neither pigs nor dogs would eat her, it is unknown whether she can withstand it.

For example, the rich woman is a dwarf or a fat pig weighing hundreds of pounds...

In short, Li Yiping had considered various situations, but the only thing he had never thought about was marrying into the wife's family.

Living off a woman's wife and marrying into her family are two completely different things.

A man who lives off women is referred to as a gigolo. If a man who lives off women has the ability like "Uncle Da", he can even do it.

Marrying into the wife's family refers to a man marrying a woman and becoming a member of her family. This is a marriage form in which the husband lives with the wife, and the children born to the two will take the woman's surname, which is fundamentally different from living off her.

Li Yiping is a gigolo, and he feels at ease doing so, not afraid of being laughed at at all. But if he were to marry into the wife's family, he would have to think twice before doing so.

Apart from anything else, if his parents knew that he had married into the family, they probably wouldn't treat him well.

Jiang Feng looked at Li Yiping, who had a serious expression on his face, and said calmly, "The above four points are the requirements put forward by the woman. The woman doesn't care about other things such as family background, education, and work. I don't know what you think, buddy? Are you willing to be this live-in son-in-law?"

Li Yiping was struggling violently in his heart. He scratched his hair and said, "Matchmaker Jiang, becoming a live-in son-in-law is really a bit beyond my expectations. Please let me think about it."

"Okay, you take your time to think about it." Jiang Feng nodded, then smiled faintly and said, "Let's be honest, the status of a son-in-law in ancient times was indeed lowly, even lower than that of a favored servant.

But after all, we live in modern times. Today's society is free of thought and men and women are equal. It is the same whether the wife goes to the husband's home or the husband goes to the wife's home. There is no question of who is inferior.

So, there is nothing wrong with marrying into the wife's family.

As for the offspring taking the woman's surname, I guess you don't care too much about it, right?

There are so many only children in our country. If they give birth to a daughter, they will not have any more children. To use the ancient saying, this means that there will be no descendants. But what's the big deal?"

"Matchmaker Jiang, you misunderstood. I personally have no objection to marrying into the wife's family. Our surname Li is the largest surname in China, and one more of me is not too much or too little, so I don't mind my offspring taking the woman's surname."

At this point, Li Yiping smiled bitterly and said, "What bothers me is that my parents have traditional ideas. If they knew I was going to be a live-in son-in-law, they probably wouldn't look at me well."

Jiang Feng smiled and said, "I think you are overthinking it. Even if your parents are more traditional, as long as you lay out the facts and explain it to them clearly, I think they will definitely understand.

After all, if your household registration is transferred to the woman's home, you can get a dividend of one or two million without doing anything for a year. Are your parents willing to let you give up this money?"

Li Yiping was excited when he heard this and said, "Mr. Jiang, you make sense. It's the same as marrying into the wife's family. If you just say it differently, maybe my parents will understand."

“So, your answer is…”

"I agree!"

There is no need to say much about Jiang Feng's matchmaking efficiency. At three o'clock in the afternoon, he arranged for Li Yiping and Gong Qinlan to meet in a teahouse.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Gong were present at this meeting.

After the two sides greeted each other and exchanged some pleasantries, they got down to business.

In fact, before the two parties met, Jiang Feng, the matchmaker, had already told them clearly what they should and should not say, and now they were just confirming it in person.

After the meeting, both parties were very satisfied.

In most people's eyes, Li Yiping's appearance is not as good as Jiang Feng's, but everyone has different aesthetic views. In Gong Qinlan's eyes, Li Yiping is more handsome than Jiang Feng.

Gong Qinlan was naturally very satisfied that a tall, handsome and well-spoken man was willing to be the son-in-law of their Gong family.

In Li Yiping's eyes, Gong Qinlan has become synonymous with the word "RMB". Her ordinary face is shining with golden light, which makes him like her more and more the more he looks at her.

He felt that he was luckier than the senior who lived off his wife, the gigolo. Living and eating with a young woman full of vitality was certainly a hundred times better than living and eating with an old lady who had half a foot in the ground.

The male and female protagonists are satisfied, and the female protagonist's parents are also satisfied. After all, this son-in-law was basically found according to their requirements, so there is no reason for them to be satisfied.

Perhaps influenced by their neighbor, the Chu family, and their trust in Master Jiang's matchmaking ability, after making sure that both parties were satisfied, Mr. and Mrs. Gong discussed the matter of registering their marriage with Li Yiping on the spot.

After some negotiation, they finally decided to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register for marriage next Monday. As for the date of the wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Gong discussed it with Master Jiang and finally set it at the end of next month.

Li Yiping looked a little dazed. In the morning, he was still hanging around outside those luxury stores, hoping to meet a rich woman who would be attracted to him. In the afternoon, he not only set a date for registering his marriage, but also a date for the wedding.

The wonders of the world really make people feel deeply moved.

They drank tea in the teahouse until five in the afternoon, and then found a restaurant to have a big meal. The bill was paid by the woman. Li Yiping had already prepared to marry into the woman's family, so naturally he had nothing to be embarrassed about.

As for Jiang Feng, as a matchmaker, it was his professional instinct to eat and drink for free, and he would not feel embarrassed at all.

When the show was over, Gong Qinlan wanted to drive Li Yiping home, but he refused.

Even a man who plans to marry into the wife's family has to save face. The place where Li Yiping lives now is really too poor, and he doesn't want his shabby appearance to be exposed in the eyes of his future wife.

This is also the reason why he planned to go back to his hometown tomorrow to get his household registration book, but did not ask Gong Qinlan to go with him.
