"Don't do that, the date for us to make the down payment is approaching. Have your aunt come over, so our two families can have a proper discussion."
He believed that Zhang Mingxue would not let him down.
“My mom said that once we arrive, we should immediately pay the down payment and put both of our names on the deed.”
"Of course, I've always said that it's our home, and it should have both of our names on it."
Hearing this, Zhang Mingxue felt incredibly happy, but she was still a little worried, "Then, what about Auntie..."
To get Wen Xingsheng's mother to agree, she personally agreed that there would be no bride price.
"My mom is very easy to talk to, don't worry. Besides, with so much dowry you have, what can my mom say?"
Mingxue, actually, my mom is doing all this for our future. She wants our little family to have more start-up capital, don't you think?
Hearing Xingsheng's words made Zhang Mingxue feel very happy, but she never thought that her mother was the only person in the world who truly cared about her.

Mo Yan received another call two weeks later.
"Mom, come over here and let me discuss the wedding with my husband's family."
"Okay, how about this weekend? Wait for me to come over this weekend, I'm only free on weekends."
Zhang Mingxue was a little unhappy when she heard this. "Mom, I'm your daughter! Your daughter is getting married! Do I have to wait for you to have time? Do you even love me?"
"If you feel it's okay if you don't love me, I don't care."
Zhang Mingxue: "..."
Mo Yan's weekend has passed. The first time she went there in her past life, she bought everything, big and small bags. This time, sorry, it's impossible.
She bought a few things and went to the restaurant they had booked.
That's right, they didn't even bother to book a hotel.
And you still say you value Zhang Mingxue? How ridiculous!
When Mo Yan went inside, they still hadn't arrived; they were already an hour late.
After Wen Xingsheng and his family arrived, they found Mo Yan. "You must be my mother-in-law? Sorry, there was a bit of traffic on the way. Have you ordered yet?"
Mo Yan thought it was ridiculous. "Is this your house? You want me to order food?"
"No, if you don't come, I won't know what's good to eat."
You guys order, I'll just go with whatever you like.
Their expressions immediately turned sour, and Wen Xingsheng's father turned around and went out to order food.
Wen Xingsheng's mother began asking Mo Yan about her situation.
Before Mo Yan could speak, Zhang Mingxue spoke up.
"My mom hasn't retired yet, and her monthly salary is about eight thousand yuan."
"I still have five or six years until retirement. Our family owns one house and two shops, both of which are currently rented out."
Mo Yan glanced at Zhang Mingxue. It seemed that she really treated her like her own mother, saying everything without considering her own mother's feelings at all.
"Mom, why are you looking at me like that? Aren't I telling the truth?" Zhang Mingxue was a little unhappy.
"It's true, but it's a bit rude of you to interrupt when I'm talking to your aunt."
Upon seeing this, Wen's mother quickly said, "No, no, I'm not angry. Mingxue is a very well-behaved child."
Of course they were obedient; they truly sided with their family in everything.
"Mom, what's going on in your family?" Mo Yan couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Mingxue frowned upon hearing this, and was about to speak when Mo Yan glared at her, saying, "Zhang Mingxue, if you interrupt again, I'll throw you out!"
Zhang Mingxue then shut up. When Wen Ma saw this, she said, "In-law, don't get so agitated. The child is just doing this for our own good."
Let me tell you about my family situation. My husband and I are not retired, but our jobs are not very good, and we don't make much money each month.
So, our two children are getting married and want to buy a new house, but we can't raise enough money. That's why we thought of asking our in-laws to help us with the down payment, so the children can pay off the mortgage themselves.
Of course, the names will be both of their names.
At first, Wen's mother didn't intend to write Zhang Mingxue's name on the application form. She just thought that Zhang Mingxue only had one daughter, so everything would be hers in the future.
"Okay, as I said, I'll give you the 300,000 yuan whenever you make the down payment and put both of their names on the deed."
Next, let's talk about the bride price and dowry. I'm a very open-minded person and don't want people to say that I'm selling my daughter.
"You can give me whatever you want, and I'll also consider the dowry."
Mo Yan's meaning was clear: if you want to give her whatever you want, then I'll give her whatever I want.
Upon hearing this, Wen's mother realized that this was no pushover. Didn't they say it was a million before?
"But didn't Mingxue say her dowry would be one million?"
"That's because she doesn't know her place. She's spent a lot of money on her studies over the years, and I'd have to give her 300,000 yuan to buy a house. I don't have that 1 million yuan."
Besides, the two younger ones told me they can't ask for an exorbitant bride price, but does that mean they can ask for an exorbitant dowry?
Are you kidding me?
What? They're unwilling to give a bride price, but they insist on a dowry.
"But isn't the dowry for your daughter?" This isn't for them.
"Yes, isn't the bride price also used to help your son get married? Isn't it the same thing?"
I'm very open-minded. As long as the two people truly love each other and live a good life together, the amount of dowry is not a problem.
Even if you say you don't need to give a bride price, that's fine too.
Anyway, if you don't give it to me, I don't have it here.
"How much did we give you back then?" Wen's mother's expression was already starting to darken.
