Seeing her son siding with his mother-in-law to please his wife, Li Jing was furious. She said to Zhou Yang in a somewhat aggressive tone, "What loan? We, the Zhou family, never owe money to others!"
Hearing this tone, Zhou Yang lowered his head awkwardly and didn't dare to say anything more.
"Mother-in-law, I'm sorry, my husband and I are such simple-minded people. If we owe a debt, we will feel like we owe others. We will feel uncomfortable all over and can't sleep well." Li Jing said to Lin Xiaoman with a forced smile.
"Mother-in-law, what you said is not right. Taking out a loan and asking others for money are two different things. At least seven out of ten people who buy houses now take out loans, Xiao Wu, don't you think so?" Lin Xiaoman sneered in his heart. After all, the old woman Li Jing just didn't want to pay the bride price!
"There are indeed quite a few loan customers, but there are also many customers who pay in full." Salesman Xiao Wu said with a smile, not wanting to offend either side.
"Besides, mother-in-law, you didn't take out the loan. They're the ones paying it back. Why are you and father-in-law worried? It's great to have your own retirement money in your hands, just eat and sleep. "
Facing Lin Xiaoman's half-smile, which seemed to see through her thoughts, Li Jing no longer pretended to be polite. Her face was completely devoid of smile, and she was filled with anger.
She has the final say on all matters at home.
How can an outsider say anything?
If she fails to turn the situation around today and makes this decision, won't her son be controlled by her mother when he gets married?
"I'm like this. If I owe money, I can't eat or sleep well!" Li Jing said with a serious face, then took the handbag beside her and took out the ID card, household registration book and bank card that had been prepared long ago.
"My son Xiaoyang is getting married, and as parents, we must prepare this house. Xiao Wu, swipe your card to sign the contract now!"
Li Jing stood up and handed the things to Xiao Wu without saying anything. Xiao Wu was very tactful and took it quickly. He raised his leg and was about to take the things to swipe the card.
"Wait! Mother-in-law, this house is for Xiaoyang and Xinyi's wedding. It's not appropriate to put your names on it!" Lin Xiaoman narrowed her eyes and remained firm and refused to back down.
This old woman is indeed a strong and domineering person.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming tense, I was afraid that the two would start arguing.
"Mom..." Shen Xinyi, who had been silent all the time, shook her arm and called softly, obviously wanting her to step back and stop talking.
Lin Xiaoman glared at her with disappointment.
Sometimes, taking a step back will open up a new world, but more often than not, if you take a step back, others will take advantage of you!
After seeing all of Shen Xinyi's behavior, Li Jing felt a little relieved. Fortunately, this daughter-in-law did not have the same personality as her mother, otherwise, she would definitely not agree to this marriage!
"What does it matter whose name is written? Xiao Yang is the only son in my family, and everything will belong to them in the future." Li Jing said righteously.
Lin Xiaoman sneered in his heart. He only had one son, but who knew if his daughter-in-law would be replaced in the future?
Of course, this cannot be said.
As soon as you say this, the other person will definitely reply immediately, "We haven't even gotten married yet, why are you thinking about divorce? Aren't you just hoping that the couple won't have a good life?"
"Since it doesn't matter whose name is written on it, as a wedding house, of course it should be written in their names. It will be left to them anyway. What's the difference if it is given early or late? Hey, I heard before that a girl cheated the man out of half of the house in the name of marriage. Mother-in-law, you are not worried that we will cheat your family of the house, right? My Xinyi and your Xiaoyang have been dating for six years. How many six years can a woman have? Your family still has to be on guard against this when buying a house now. It's really disheartening!" Lin Xiaoman took the initiative and spoke directly.
This is Wu City, a second-tier city with a pretty good economy. House prices just went up two years ago and are currently around 12,000 yuan.
They were looking at a large, three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment, priced at nearly 1.8 million yuan. Li Jing was understandably concerned about such a large sum of money, considering they were both ordinary families. But since they were worried, why not just take out a loan and let the couple repay it themselves?
But he refused to back down and insisted on having the full payment in his own name. That meant he was definitely trying to take advantage of the woman!
"Mother-in-law, what are you talking about? The two children have been together for so many years, how could I have such an idea? We are all family, how can there be so many twists and turns in our hearts?" Li Jing said sarcastically, feeling angry in her heart, this Li Yanying is really smart, she wants to get half of the house for free?
Do you really think your daughter is inlaid with gold?
But now that things have come to this, if she insists any further, it will really seem like she, the mother-in-law, is guarding against her daughter-in-law.
"Since it's these two kids who are buying the wedding house, let's do this. We two elders shouldn't get involved and let them decide for themselves. Mother-in-law, what do you think?" Li Jing took a step back with understanding.
"Okay, let them decide. Xiaoyang, tell me, whose name should be written?" Lin Xiaoman once again fixed his eyes on Zhou Yang and gave him the choice.
"This... Auntie... Mom..." Zhou Yang looked at Lin Xiaoman and then at Li Jing, his face full of embarrassment. He didn't know what to do. Finally, Zhou Yang looked at Shen Xinyi with eyes full of help, "Xinyi, you decide."
Oh, useless thing!
Lin Xiaoman sneered in her heart. Sure enough, this Zhou Yang was an irresponsible mama's boy. He actually pushed this kind of problem onto the woman?
There is no need to think about it. Whenever there is a conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, even if this coward doesn't help his mother, he will definitely not dare to say a word!
Zhou Yang threw this hot potato over. Shen Xinyi was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Xiaoman hesitantly, then looked at Li Jing, and finally lowered her head and said softly, "Just write the names of aunt and uncle."
Knowing this was the result, Lin Xiaoman snorted heavily to express her dissatisfaction. Chen Xinyi immediately tugged at her skirt, silently saying with body language, "Forget it, forget it, don't say it..."
"Then do as Xinyi says."
Li Jing was full of pride and a smile appeared on her face again, as she urged enthusiastically, "Xiao Wu, why don't you hurry up and go through the formalities?"
"Okay, Auntie." Salesperson Xiao Wu happily went to swipe the card.
Swipe the card, sign, sign the contract... Li Jing completed the process happily.
After coming out of the sales center, Zhou Yang drove and first took Li Jing home, and then took Lin Xiaoman to the destination.
Lin Xiaoman got out of the car, leaving only the two of them. When they were on the road again, Zhou Yang said apologetically, "Xinyi, I'm really sorry for putting you through this today. After all, it was my parents who paid for it, and I can't make the decision."
"I understand. It has nothing to do with you." Chen Xinyi was very understanding.
"Xinyi, don't worry. In a few years, when we have saved enough money, we will buy a house for ourselves and it will definitely be in both of our names." Zhou Yang promised solemnly.
"Um."
