Chapter 163: Sky-high Bride Price SqzT(jhssd)
Shancheng Hotel.
"Xiaomei!"
Tang Zhimei walked to the first floor and was about to greet the guests who came to see Mr. Guan today with Gu Jingmo. A sharp voice rang out, and her brows furrowed instantly.
She didn't look back, but Gu Jingmo looked back.
Wang Xueping, with a smile on her face, ran past him hurriedly, ran to Tang Zhimei, and held her hand tightly.
"Xiaomei, it's you! It really is you! My daughter! Mom was so worried about you! Let me see if you're hurt anywhere."
Wang Xueping pulled Tang Zhimei to look around. She was wearing a red wool coat and looked normal, but the cloth shoes on her feet were covered with mud because it was raining. When she walked, the ground was covered with wet mud.
The waitress looked at Wang Xueping with a frown on her face. She was about to kick her out, but when Tang Zhimei appeared, she ran straight over.
"Ms. Tang, is this your mother?" The waitress came over and asked politely, but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.
This Tang Zhimei, relying on her good looks, shamelessly walked around with Gu Jingmo, and always acted superior to the waitresses.
I didn't expect her mother was just a country woman. It's so funny.
Tang Zhimei could naturally see what the waitress was thinking. She smiled stiffly and pushed Wang Xueping away without leaving a trace.
"Yes! She is my mother. Mom, why are you here?"
"I was worried about you! As soon as I heard Qin Qing say you were back safely, I rushed to see you!"
Wang Xueping's words made Tang Zhimei so angry that her teeth itched. How could she have forgotten about this incident?
Qin Qing, that big-mouthed woman, must have done it on purpose, deliberately not wanting her to live a comfortable life.
"Miss Tang, your mother's feet are covered in mud that's hard to clean. Why don't you change your shoes before letting her in?"
"What do you mean? Why can't I enter the restaurant just because my feet are a little muddy?"
Tang Zhimei looked at the scorn in the waitress's eyes and became furious.
"This dirty the floor, and we have to clean it up too."
"Isn't this what you waiters are born to do?"
Tang Zhimei's words became more and more impolite, and the waitress's face turned red after being confronted by her.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Gu Jingmo quickly spoke.
"Comrade, could you please get a pair of spare slippers for Aunt Wang to change into? Sorry for the inconvenience."
Gu Jingmo said with a smile
The waitress looked at Gu Jingmo's handsome face and was distracted for a moment. Her cheeks blushed slightly as she nodded and went to get the slippers.
"You're a lowly bastard born to be ordered around. Why are you pretending?"
Tang Zhimei's rude words made Gu Jingmo frown, but he didn't say anything. He led Wang Xueping to sit on the sofa in the corner of the lobby.
He didn't want Tang Zhimei to make a big noise and attract onlookers.
"Aunt Wang, Xiaomei and I are fine. I had some important things to do in Shancheng, so I didn't go back to let you know I was safe. I'm really sorry."
Wang Xueping looked at Gu Jingmo and liked him more and more.
She remembered Qin Qing's words clearly. She said that Gu Jingmo was a real rich son-in-law.
In the past, her family was well-off and she didn't care whether Gu Jingmo had money or not, but now that Tang Tiansheng has fallen and the family's money has been taken away, Gu Jingmo is her support.
"Son-in-law, don't say sorry or not. When are you and Xiaomei going to have your wedding?"
Wang Xueping's sudden question left Gu Jingmo confused.
He looked up at Tang Zhimei, but to his surprise, she blushed and said nothing, but instead stared at him with a look of faint expectation.
Did the mother and daughter collude to force him to get married?
"Aunt Wang, Xiaomei has to take the college entrance examination next year. She wants to go to Jinghua University in the future. I don't want her to delay her studies."
Gu Jingmo found a reason that Tang Zhimei couldn't refuse.
"What's the big deal? For a woman, marrying a good man is better than going to college! Xiaomei, don't you agree?"
Wang Xueping glanced at Tang Zhimei, and Tang Zhimei said shyly.
"Jing Mo, you know, I can go to Jinghua University if I want to, so it doesn't affect me."
Tang Zhimei had already confronted Guan Zhong last night, and Guan Zhong also promised that he would find a way to help her get into Jinghua University, so she was not worried about this issue at all.
"Xiaomei, when you get admitted to Jinghua University, we'll get married! Double happiness is naturally even better!"
Gu Jingmo retreated to advance, and Tang Zhimei opened her red lips slightly and smiled.
Of course she saw Gu Jingmo's retreat. He had held her hand yesterday and told her that he was forced to hand her over to him under the threat of Guan Zhong.
But he will be responsible for her and will definitely marry her.
How come in the blink of an eye, we have to wait another year?
"Okay, then let's wait another year! But, let's get engaged first, is that okay?"
There are too many variables in a year, she must settle down with Gu Jingmo, in this life, she will never give him to Qin Qing again!
"got engaged?"
Faced with Tang Zhimei's relentless pressure, Gu Jingmo hesitated. Before he could say anything, Wang Xueping clapped his hands happily.
"Engagement is great! Let's get married first, and it will naturally come to fruition in a year!"
"but……"
Gu Jingmo wanted to argue again, but he saw Tang Zhimei's eyes were filled with tears and she looked like she was about to cry. She stroked her face and said.
"Jing Mo, if you don't want to, I won't force you. I think I can talk to Master Guan again about going to Kyoto..."
As soon as he heard Tang Zhimei mention Guan Zhong, Gu Jingmo immediately understood that she was using this matter to threaten him!
Gu Jingmo's fists clenched slowly and imperceptibly, but he wore a gentle smile on his face.
"This is our business. Why should we discuss it with Mr. Guan? Aunt Wang, engagement is fine. No problem!"
"Yeah, you think it's okay too, right?"
Wang Xueping's spirits instantly brightened. She moved her butt a step closer to Gu Jingmo and whispered in his ear.
"My future son-in-law, your marriage is about to be arranged, and we need to discuss the betrothal gift."
bride price?
When he heard the word "money", Gu Jingmo's face changed slightly, but Wang Xueping didn't notice it at all. Instead, she spoke with great excitement.
"That's right! Look at our daughter. Even in this Shancheng Hotel, you can't find anyone prettier than her!"
What Wang Xueping said was true. With Tang Zhimei's beauty, there were few people more beautiful than her, not to mention in the Shancheng Hotel, even in the entire Shancheng.
A beauty like her who looks as gentle and gentle as water can really captivate people.
It just so happened that Guan Zhong liked this, so he fell in love with Tang Zhimei at first sight, but didn't care much about Qin Qing's beauty.
"Auntie Wang, how much do you want as a betrothal gift?"
By this point, Gu Jingmo already had an idea in his mind.
Wang Xueping went to great lengths to come to Shancheng Hotel, not because she cared about her daughter, but purely for money.
Everyone in the Tang family is weird.
Gu Jingmo sneered in his heart and had no good feelings towards Tang Zhimei's family, but he always had a gentle smile on his face and did not show any dissatisfaction.
"Don't worry, it's not much! Two thousand!"
