He called Han Yunqi to borrow money because his girlfriend told him that her father was sick and her younger brother was about to go to university, so they were in dire straits. To pay for her father's medical expenses and her brother's tuition, her family was planning to sell her to raise money for her dowry.
Han Yunlong was naturally anxious upon hearing this, and immediately asked his girlfriend how much money she needed. She directly quoted 300,000.
Uncle Han's family couldn't possibly come up with 300,000 yuan. Han Yunlong had only been working for a short time and had no savings whatsoever.
And even if Uncle Han could come up with that money, I doubt he would agree. Three hundred thousand to marry a daughter-in-law—is she made of gold?
Uncle Han's family isn't anything special; a few hundred thousand yuan isn't a big deal to them.
When Han Yunqi married Tang Xiaoxiao, he gave a bride price of 880,000 yuan. This was because, firstly, Han Yunqi could afford it himself and didn't need to borrow. Secondly, Tang Xiaoxiao also gave the same amount as her dowry. The money went into the pockets of the young couple, and neither set of parents had any intention of keeping it for themselves. So, the bride price and dowry were simply transferred from one pocket to the other, and it didn't matter how much they gave.
Moreover, Tang Xiaoxiao's own background is undeniable, so the bride price is just a formality. Everyone knows that she herself is worth countless 880,000 yuan.
This may sound mercenary, but it is the truth.
The 300,000 yuan that Han Yunlong's girlfriend asked for was clearly intended for her family; she wouldn't get a single penny for herself. Giving that money away would be a complete waste.
So Han Yunlong didn't even dare to mention it to his parents, and directly set his sights on his second cousin, Han Yunqi.
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't know if Han Yunlong had begged anyone for this 300,000 yuan in his past life. However, she did know that Han Yunlong's later wife was not his current girlfriend.
According to Han Yunqi, Han Yunlong's current girlfriend is someone he's been dating since college. She's from out of town, far from L province. His wife in his previous life, however, was a local from K city. He knew her well; she was a soft-spoken, gentle girl who, while not particularly beautiful, was very kind.
It's possible that what his girlfriend said was true, and that in his previous life, Han Yunlong was too poor to cover the financial burden of his girlfriend's family, which led to their eventual breakup... But those are all just speculations.
Even if it were true, Tang Xiaoxiao didn't want to support such a thing.
Poverty alleviation can only happen once or countless times.
If Han Yunlong really loves his girlfriend, he can earn money through his own abilities or simply persuade Uncle Han to help her family. Tang Xiaoxiao wishes them happiness.
But based on the trajectory of the previous life, this possibility is obviously very small.
Now he doesn't even dare to tell his own parents, so what's going on with him directly asking Han Yunqi for money? Regardless of the consequences if he gets scammed, even if he doesn't get scammed and ends up with that woman, his whole family will become a burden that Han Yunlong can't get rid of.
If she can sell her daughter to pay for her brother's college education, what will happen in the future? When her brother needs to buy a house, get married, and have children, once this precedent is set, he will only exploit his sister again and again.
The "brother-supporting demon" is someone you must not associate with.
If you get involved with a family like that, Uncle Han's family will never have a peaceful life for the rest of their days.
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't want Han Yunqi's good intentions to end up with him being blamed.
When Han Yunqi answered the phone, he didn't think that far ahead. He just felt that it wasn't right to lend money to his cousin without his uncle's knowledge.
After listening to Tang Xiaoxiao's analysis, Han Yunqi thought about it and agreed with her statement.
So, regarding this money... unless his uncle personally asks him for it, he can only apologize to Han Yunlong.
