She accepted Lu Yunzhou's money without a second thought.
At this point, someone said, "Look at other people, how readily they buy things for their partners. And look at you, buying a watch that costs 180 yuan and going back and forth five or six times. I think there's no need for us to get married."
A young couple who came to look at watches next to me started arguing.
Lu Yunzhou and Qiao Wanyue exchanged a glance.
He stood in front of Qiao Wanyue.
The girl didn't give the man a chance to explain and turned away.
The sales clerk shook his head. "This girl works at a state-owned factory and is getting married. Her family needs a 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a watch, a revolving door, a radio, and a watch). The man agreed verbally, but when he came to buy a watch, he complained that the style was not good or that it was a foreign product. He said he wanted to buy a domestic product, but then he complained that the domestic parts were not good. He went back and forth five or six times, but he just wouldn't pay for it."
Qiao Wanyue understood.
It's not that they think the goods are bad.
It's obvious they think it's too expensive.
Lu Yunzhou readily pulled out more than three hundred yuan, and the girl probably saw through the man's intentions.
If you can argue about money before marriage, you might as well not get married.
The daily grind of married life is the most grueling.
"Let's go."

Back home
Lu Yunzhou explained the source of the photo again. Under the suspicious gazes of his family, the materialist Lu Yunzhou raised his hand and swore that he had no relationship with Wen Bing.
Only then did the Lu family members treat him kindly.
Lu Rong almost had a stress reaction to Wen Bing.
Although I've only met her once, the girl's ruthlessness has seeped into her very bones.
If this woman were to enter the Lu family, she would hang herself in front of Lu Yunzhou.
Lu Rong vividly recounted Wen Bing's actions to Lu Yunzhou, even describing Wen Bing's domineering tone in great detail.
Lu Yunzhou's face grew increasingly dark.
When he returned, he only heard Mu Fan say a few words about Wen Bing using tricks on Wan Yue, but he didn't have time to ask about the specifics. Mu Fan had gone on a mission. Now, listening to his mother talk about those things, Lu Yunzhou's brows were so furrowed that they could almost trap a fly.
No wonder the family reacted so strongly when they saw Wen Bing's photo.
"Mom, stop chatting and let's eat." Qiao Wanyue came out of the kitchen, still chewing on the meat her sister-in-law had stuffed into her mouth. She turned on the stove in the house. Although they didn't live here often, it had everything they needed.
"Wanyue, isn't your watch broken? I'll take it to get it repaired tomorrow." Brother Lu remembered that Qiao Wanyue had said her watch was broken, and as usual, he planned to find someone to fix it.
When Lu Yunzhou was away, he repaired all the household items, big and small.
Qiao Wanyue said, "Don't give it to Lu... Yunzhou. The one I have is new."
Upon hearing his form of address, Lu Yunzhou paused in his hand, which was holding a bowl.
A satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
She took off her coat, revealing a turtleneck sweater, and proudly showed her watch to her family, her fair wrist displayed like a precious treasure. The dim light shone on her, making her look like a radiant fairy.
Lu Yunzhou stared blankly at it.
Lu Yunqi took a look and, sure enough, it wasn't the one he used to wear.
The watch on Qiao Wanyue's wrist was bought by Sister-in-law Lu. Last year, she made some money and wanted to give Qiao Wanyue a gift, so she bought a watch that young women and wives both like. But the one on Qiao Wanyue's wrist now is much more exquisite than the previous one.
Lu Yunqi laughed heartily, "Yunzhou is back, these are things he needs to do."
“I’ll have someone repair the old watch,” Lu Yunzhou added.
Lu Yunqi looked at his younger brother, and then at his sister-in-law.
The atmosphere between the two was clearly off.
There was more intimacy than yesterday, but also more distance than a typical couple.
The two must have reached some kind of tacit understanding, right?
