Seeing his wife and daughter so happy, Liu Jianping couldn't help but pour cold water on them.
"A family like Guan Mingyue's would probably not let him marry a divorced woman."
If he were Guan Mingyue's father, he would not agree to marry a girl from a family like Qinqin even if she was not married, not to mention that she was married!
Liu Qin rolled her eyes. "Ming Yue has already told his parents that he doesn't want to marry anyone except me. His parents are not as old-fashioned as you. They said that as long as he likes her, it's fine."
"Ming Yue said that as soon as I get divorced, he would take me to his home to meet his parents. He also said that his family has an ancestral gold bracelet, and he would give it to me when we meet his parents."
Liu Jianping frowned and said, "I think this matter is still not very reliable."
How is it possible that a man who is getting married for the first time would not mind if the woman has been married before?
On the other hand, as a man, thinking from a man's perspective, it is impossible for him not to mind.
Besides, Guan Mingyue is so well-off, he could marry any kind of girl, so why does he have to marry Qinqin?
"What's unreliable about that?" Yang Meifeng said unhappily, "Your Xiaoguan loves Qinqin. Do you know what love is? If you really love someone, not only do you not mind her being married and having a child, you would even be willing to give your life to her."
"Isn't that the Hong Hongmei from your factory? She even has two children, but Jiang Dachun, a young man who had never seen a married woman, still married her anyway."
"Our Qinqin is so beautiful, there must be at least two guys pursuing her before. Xiaoguan is obsessed with her and has deep feelings for her. Is that normal?"
Yang Meifeng clapped her daughter's hands. The more she looked at her daughter, the more she felt that her daughter was really pretty.
Liu Qin pouted and said, "Dad, you don't understand love at all."
How could he, a man who stared at lesbians' butts every day, understand love? Naturally, he could not understand Ming Yue's feelings for her.
In the face of true love, you won't care about so many external factors.
"..." Liu Jianping was speechless.
He doesn't understand love, but he understands men. On the contrary, he finds this matter strange.
Yang Meifeng also looked at Liu Jianping and complained, "How could he understand love? When he married me, he just met me once."
There is no love between them, so how can he understand love?
"Qinqin, Xiaoguan's family is so well off, you'll have to ask for a bigger dowry when the time comes." Yang Meifeng said to her daughter.
"At the beginning, the Lin family asked for a cash gift of 888, and Xiaoguan's family asked for 1888. After three rounds of investment, they directly exchanged them for three major appliances: a refrigerator, a TV, and a washing machine!" Yang Meifeng said with great enthusiasm.
Nowadays, many well-off families have replaced the betrothal gift of three turns and one ring with three major items.
Guan Mingyue's father works in the Finance Bureau. He can definitely get these things easily and can afford them.
Liu Jianping nodded and said, "If Guan Mingyue can prepare all these gifts before the wedding, I will believe that he and his family really don't mind that you have been married and really want to marry you."
Liu Qin rolled her eyes. "What kind of family is the Mingyue family? They are an intellectual family, a cadre family!"
"What kind of family is ours? None of you have a job, I'm the only temporary worker, and your brother is in jail!"
"Our family is not worthy of the Guan family in the first place, and we still want so much betrothal gifts. Won't this make the Guan family look down on us even more?"
Yang Meifeng and Liu Jianping looked at each other and seemed to agree.
Liu Qin continued, "The bride price is just a courtesy. It depends on the man's intention. Mingyue's family is well-educated and polite. Even if I don't ask for it, he will definitely not miss this courtesy."
"But if our family takes the initiative to ask for this, the children will definitely think that we are snobbish and greedy, and look down on our children."
"Besides, the Mingyue family is so well-off. Even if we don't want a dowry, can the money and benefits we can get from marrying into the Guan family be less than the dowry you mentioned?"
Liu Qin felt that her parents were too short-sighted and only cared about the betrothal gifts. They did not realize that as long as she married into the Guan family, she would achieve a class transition.
Yang Meifeng felt that what her daughter said made sense. The Guan family was so well off, so even if they didn't want a dowry, could they still get less?
Qinqin's marriage into the Guan family will bring her endless benefits.
"Qinqin, you're right. When our two families meet to discuss the betrothal gift, we'll say how much the betrothal gift is, and it all depends on how generous his family is. We don't mind how much or how little, as long as you two are happy."
Liu Qin pursed her lips and smiled, "That's exactly what we want. This way, Mingyue's parents will look up to our family."
Liu Jianping: "What if the family doesn't give a cent?"
Wouldn't that be giving a daughter to her family for nothing?
Hearing this, Liu Qin and Yang Meifeng rolled their eyes.
Liu Qin said even more angrily: "Do you think the Guan family is the same as ours? The Guan family is respectable and has some dignity."
Hearing this, the corners of Yang Meifeng and Liu Jianping's mouth twitched, as if what she said made their family disgraceful and shameless.
"Mom, give me three dollars tomorrow." Liu Qin looked at Yang Meifeng and said.
Liu Jianping: "Since Guan Mingyue asked you to divorce your wife and marry him, then you can ask him for the money."
Liu Qin rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I haven't divorced yet, and I'm not with Ming Yue. Do you think it's appropriate for me to ask him for the money?"
"Don't worry, I won't take your money for nothing. I will return it to you after I marry Mingyue."
Although Yang Meifeng didn't want to give it, she couldn't divorce Qinqin if she didn't give her the money.
"Mom will get it for you. I'll give it to you tomorrow morning."
next day
At 15:30, Liu Qin and Lin Jianshe went to the Civil Affairs Bureau together.
Liu Qin held the divorce certificate in her hand, and Lin Jianshe held the divorce certificate and three yuan in his hand.
Looking at the divorce certificate in his hand, Lin Jianshe was still a little dazed. It seemed as if they had just gotten married yesterday, but now they were getting divorced.
Lin Jianshe suddenly felt reluctant to leave, and raised his head and called out, "Qinqin..."
But Liu Qin left without any reluctance, with a smile on her face.
Lin Jianshe: “…”
Are you so happy that you divorced him?
Lin Jianshe glared at Liu Qin's back hatefully and walked in the opposite direction from her.
With the money, Lin Jianshe went to the store and bought a lot of food to bring home. He also bought himself a new pair of leather shoes, a new shirt and new pants.
When the neighbors saw him buying so many things, they all asked him jokingly, "Hey, Jianshe, you must have made a fortune to buy so many things."
Lin Jianshe smiled without saying anything, opened the door with the key and went in.
As soon as Zhang Jiao came back from work in the afternoon, a neighbor said to her, "It seems that Lin Jianshe has made a fortune. He bought a lot of things today!"
"Get rich? What kind of wealth can he make?" Zhang Jiao frowned.
"Who knows? He spent at least one or two dollars on those things today."
Zhang Jiao narrowed her eyes as she looked at Lin Jianshe's room.
No matter if he got rich, found a job, or picked up money,
Now that he has money, he should pay back the money he owes them as soon as possible.
(I had food poisoning and went to the emergency room. I wrote these two thousand words on my phone in the hospital! I’ll write two thousand today and make up for it tomorrow.)
