Chapter 143 I've Fallen in Love with Her
After hearing what Bai Xiuhe said, Ji Tiantian's tears started to fall again.
Bai Xiuhe had no choice but to let her cry enough.
After Ji Tiantian was tired of crying, she comforted her, "Yingying told me everything. Your mother introduced you to a man, and he agreed to give your family a betrothal gift of 200,000 yuan and 100,000 yuan worth of jewelry."
"Tell your mother that our family is willing to give a dowry of 2 million and jewelry of 1 million."
Ji Tiantian was frightened and shook her head violently, "Auntie, no, I can't do this."
Bai Xiuhe touched Ji Tiantian's head: "Silly child, do you think you are not worth the money? Let me tell you, in my eyes, you are a priceless treasure. It would be a blessing for our Chengfeng if he could marry a wife as sensible as you."
Ji Tiantian was deeply moved, "Auntie, I am just an ordinary girl from the countryside. I am not worthy of such a good family like yours. Chengfeng should find a better girl who is of equal status."
Bai Xiuhe disagreed, "Then you are wrong. Rather than marrying someone of equal social status, I hope that our Chengfeng can find a virtuous and sensible girl, and I hope they can love each other for the rest of their lives."
"Tiantian, money is not something that means more is not always better. Our family doesn't need Chengfeng to sacrifice his happiness and arrange family marriages. As for me, I just want my family to live in peace and happiness."
Ji Tiantian looked embarrassed. "But, Auntie, I won't hide it from you. My parents are very greedy, and they favor boys over girls. They rely on me to take money back to subsidize them. If they knew your family was rich..."
Bai Xiuhe: "If you don't tell them, how will they know how much money our family has? You yourself can't guess how much money our family has, right? We can talk to your parents."
"Just give them the betrothal gift, and they can use it freely. But after you marry into our family, you will be a member of our family, and you can no longer use the money to subsidize your parents' home."
Ji Tiantian: "But, I'm afraid that if they agree now, they'll come back to pester me when they run out of money later."
Bai Xiuhe: "So we need to be tougher in our attitude. Tiantian, remember, kind people are often bullied. If you act tougher than them, they won't dare to harass you again."
"How about this, you call your parents and your two brothers to the city, and our two families will meet together. You don't have to say anything, just leave it to me, I will tell you, and I guarantee that your parents will never dare to bully you again."
Ji Tiantian thought about it and still felt sorry for the Lu family, "Auntie, I'm not worthy of you doing this."
Bai Xiuhe: "Don't belittle yourself. You are a good child. Auntie likes you very much and really hopes that you can be our daughter-in-law. I believe that we will get along well with each other."
"Think about it carefully. Auntie really feels that your parents' problem is not a big issue. Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. The key is you and Chengfeng. Your happiness is the most important."
Bai Xiuhe stopped forcing Ji Tiantian and asked her to think about it carefully first. She then dragged her to Lan Yu's office and asked her to eat first.
She watched Ji Tiantian finish her lunch before packing up and returning to the Lu family.
That night, when Lu Chengfeng returned home, Bai Xiuhe called him to the study for questioning.
Bai Xiuhe: "I know everything about you and Tiantian. She cried all day and her eyes are swollen. You don't know how sad it is for your mother to see her so sad."
Lu Chengfeng had a bad day and felt heavy in his heart all day.
He had never been so upset all day.
After this day, he realized that Ji Tiantian had unknowingly occupied his heart.
At this moment, after hearing what his mother said, his heart ached, "Mom, did Tiantian say anything to you?"
Bai Xiuhe deliberately sighed, "This child is too kind. She broke up with you for your own good. She felt that she was born in the countryside and was not worthy of you. She hoped that you could find a better girl."
"Also, she is worried that if she marries you, her parents will rely on our family and suck our money."
Lu Chengfeng was surprised, "Why would she think that? Even if her parents want our family's money, we can afford it."
Bai Xiuhe slapped her thigh and said, "That's right. The man her mother introduced to her was willing to give a betrothal gift of 200,000 yuan and jewelry worth 100,000 yuan, and they thought it was a lot."
"I have talked to Tiantian and asked her to invite her parents and two brothers to the city so that we can talk face to face. My family will give ten times the amount, 2 million as a betrothal gift and 1 million as jewelry."
"Did Tiantian agree?" Lu Chengfeng asked.
Bai Xiuhe: "No, she was scared when she heard the number I reported and said she couldn't take so much money from our family."
Lu Chengfeng felt a little lost.
Bai Xiuhe thought for a moment and said, "Mom thinks the key lies with you. You should go talk to her. You have to tell her that you want to marry her and spend your life with her."
"You didn't say anything like that to her?"
Lu Chengfeng shook his head and said, "No, we don't usually talk about such topics."
Bai Xiuhe: "So, it's your problem. You didn't let her know that you only wanted to marry her, so she thought that you didn't have to marry her and you could marry another woman."
Lu Chengfeng thought about his mother's words and felt that they made sense. "Mom, I understand. It's too late today. I'll find time to talk to her tomorrow."
Bai Xiuhe: "You need to pay more attention. Your sister is already a mother, and you can't even get a wife. How can you be so stupid?"
Lu Chengfeng smiled, "Mom, I promise to marry Tiantian home, ok?"
Bai Xiuhe: "Okay, go take a shower and rest. Remember to take some time to see Tiantian tomorrow and have a good talk with her."
When Gu Yunchi returned to the dormitory, Lan Yu told him about Ji Tiantian and Lu Chengfeng's breakup.
Including the matter of the disgusting man introduced to Ji Tiantian by her mother Cong Fang.
She sighed as she spoke, "Oh, I originally thought Tiantian could be my sister-in-law, but who knew she still insisted on breaking up with my brother. She was so inferior when facing my brother."
Gu Yunchi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't be anxious. If your brother really likes Tiantian, he will definitely not let you go just like that."
Lan Yu looked at Gu Yunchi and asked, "How do you know?"
Gu Yunchi reached out and scratched the tip of her nose, "Because I am also a man, the key to whether Tiantian can become your sister-in-law is not on Tiantian's side, but on your brother's side."
"I think it's right for Tiantian to break up at this time. Your brother is a little slow in emotions and needs some stimulation to see clearly what he wants in his heart."
Lan Yu held his chin with a worried look on his face, "To be honest, I'm not sure whether my brother likes Tiantian or not. They haven't even held hands yet, let alone intimate actions like kissing."
"I even suspect that my brother has a health problem."
Gu Yunchi smiled, "There's nothing wrong with your brother. He is a rather introverted person. To be honest with you, I didn't like your brother before because I thought he was too pretentious. Of course, he also thought I was too pretentious."
Lan Yu pursed her lips and smiled, "The day we were in the hotel, I also thought you were quite pretentious, acting like you were out of reach."
Gu Yunchi pulled the person into his arms, "What about now? Do you still think I'm pretending?"
