Chapter 33: Only seeking money, not love
“Ahem…”
Although Jiang Xianli is still an innocent girl in this life, she has lived for several decades longer in her previous life, so she is not pretentious.
"I am willing to become a real husband and wife with you, but although I am poor, I have read a few books and am a bit hypocritical, but I also have my bottom line. If you become husband and wife with me, I will not tolerate your extramarital affairs.
Therefore, we both need to be cautious about this matter.”
After a few seconds of silence, Xie Jingcheng said, "You are right. For now, it is better for the two of us to abide by the rules we set when we first got married and not interfere with each other."
Although he didn't have a lover, he didn't think he was a good person either.
He didn't love Jiang Xianli, he was afraid that he couldn't give her the life she wanted.
After sleeping with someone, you still want the freedom of being single. Isn't that hooliganism?
Besides, Jiang Xianli is still in school and doesn't want to have children, so it is really not suitable for the two of them to sleep together so soon.
For this kind of thing, both men and women must be in love with each other and have to sleep together out of obligation. Xie Jingcheng is such a failure.
After Xie Jingcheng said this, Jiang Xianli did not get angry, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.
In this life, she only seeks wealth, not love.
Love...haha...it is a top luxury and also a deadly poison.
He smiled and said, "Whatever the Fourth Young Master says is true. Let's go downstairs quickly."
"Um."
Since this was Xie Jingcheng's first visit to his mother-in-law's house after marriage, he brought a lot of gifts.
Two boxes of Moutai, two boxes of milk, a box of American ginseng, a pig leg...
The trunk was filled with stuff.
Zhao Xiumei said "No, no" but her face was full of smiles.
After getting in the car, Zhao Xiumei touched here and there, feeling very excited. "This is my first time riding in a sedan. It's really comfortable."
Xie Jingcheng smiled and said, "The car I booked for Lili will arrive in a few days. If you like riding in it, wait for Lili to get the car and let her take you for a ride often."
"What?" Zhao Xiumei's eyes widened in disbelief, "You said you were going to buy a car for Lili?"
"Um."
"I heard that a car costs more than 200,000 yuan!"
"Um."
Xie Jingcheng said in his heart: The car I bought for my wife cost two hundred thousand.
Zhao Xiumei seemed to be struck by something. "More than 200,000 yuan, which is enough for ordinary people to work for several lifetimes. How could you buy such an expensive thing for her?"
Xie Jingcheng was driving and didn't take it seriously.
"But financially speaking, I am not an ordinary person. I have money, so isn't it normal for me to buy a car for my wife? Do you want me to buy one for another woman?"
"No, no." Zhao Xiumei shook her head repeatedly, "Of course I hope you and Lili can be in love, but I just think it's not worthwhile to spend a huge amount of money just to buy a car for Lili."
If she gave half of the two hundred thousand to her family, it would not only be enough for her to buy each of her two sons a new yard, but also ensure that the couple could enjoy their old age.
Buying a car for a little girl like Jiang Xianli to drive is no different from throwing it for fun.
"It's worth spending any amount of money to make her life more convenient."
Zhao Xiumei smiled awkwardly, "Hehe...hehe..."
After a while, she suddenly said, "Jingcheng, you are so generous. Look at how much meat you brought. We don't have a refrigerator at home. If we don't finish it, it will go bad."
Before Xie Jingcheng could say anything, Jiang Xianli got angry again.
"You just want him to buy you a refrigerator, don't you? What kind of family did he grow up in? What kind of people has he not seen? Do you think it's smart to talk like that? In his eyes, your little tricks are just like monkey tricks. Can't you tell me what you want? Why do you have to ask him for it?"
Zhao Xiumei curled her lips, "Then if I ask you for it, will you buy it for me?"
Jiang Xianli coughed lightly, "Ahem... No."
"That's all. If you were a filial daughter, would I have to go to such lengths to get my son-in-law to buy me things? I'm already so old, don't I need to save face? Don't I know that my son-in-law will look down on me if I do this? But who made our family poor? I didn't ask my son-in-law to build me a house or buy me gold and silver jewelry. Is it wrong for me to want to buy some practical things for my home?"
"You live like a person. If you can't afford a refrigerator now, just wait. If you really can't afford it, let me and my brother and sister help you. You always ask your son-in-law for money in a roundabout way. You don't feel ashamed, but I do!"
"Bah! You are so noble, Jiang Xianli. If Jingcheng had no money and no looks, would you marry him? I'm afraid even if I died, you would just bury me and would not agree to marry me!"
Seeing that the two were arguing more and more fiercely, Jiang Xianyang quickly covered her mother's mouth.
He whispered, "Stop arguing, both of you. My second brother-in-law is still here."
