Chapter 6 Your mother is important. Live a good life with her. Why do you want to marry me?
Jiang Jinzhou stood there for a long time, still persisting.
"Xiu Lan, please stop being so willful, okay?"
"I really want to marry you. My heart is with you. Now you suddenly say you don't want to marry me. What do you want me to do? Can you please be kind and give me this chance?"
He was very humble and anxious. He had finally found the right one and didn't want to miss it. If the two of them ended their relationship here, wouldn't he be heartbroken?
But Liang Xiulan shook her head firmly: "No, our temperaments don't match."
Jiang Jinzhou shook his head in frustration and turned around several times.
"Oh... We've been dating for over a year now. What's the problem? Tell me what's going on and I'll change it, right?"
Liang Xiulan curled her lips and still shook her head: "I can't change it, I can't change it in my lifetime."
Jiang Jinzhou suddenly stopped, walked forward and put his arm around her waist.
"Just tell me, I can change, just trust me!"
Liang Xiulan looked at the handsome face suddenly approaching and immediately reached out her hand to hold on!
He wanted to seduce her with his beauty, but it was wishful thinking. He had been fooled so many times in his previous life. If he didn't learn his lesson in this life, then his life would have been in vain.
"There's nothing about you I can trust. Get out of here now! It's broad daylight, be careful not to be seen."
"So what if we're seen? I'm going to marry you, so I'm not afraid of being seen!"
Liang Xiulan had seen the scoundrel of this man before, and her face immediately fell.
"I want you to let go!"
"I don't!"
"Get out of here!"
"I won't!"
Liang Xiulan hardened her heart, lowered her head and bit his shoulder hard.
Jiang Jinzhou quickly let go.
"Hiss...it hurts! Are you a dog?"
"Just take it as it is. I'm telling you again, I don't want to marry you anymore!"
She said it very seriously, and Jiang Jinzhou's heart suddenly tightened.
That look was not a vent of anger, nor was it a joke. She really didn't want to marry herself anymore.
He lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. Finally, he took a deep breath and raised his hands to rub his face.
"Then you have to tell me why. I need to know where I went wrong."
His voice was low and humble, which made Liang Xiulan feel distressed.
In my previous life, I couldn't bear to see him sad, and it's the same in this life. When I love someone, I can't help but think about him. I can't change this bad habit in my life.
No wonder people have to drink Meng Po soup after they die.
Liang Xiulan turned her head away and remained silent for a long time.
Adjust your mood before speaking calmly.
"You know, being married isn't just about eating, drinking, and having fun."
"Marriage is about the endless chores of life, the complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the endless drunkards, and the balance between wife and brother."
"You will never understand or change these things in your lifetime, so we are not suitable..."
In Jiang Jinzhou's heart, their home is just a place where he can feel at ease, but not his spiritual home.
His spiritual home is at the wine table, at the card table, at the fishing ground, but not in their home.
Jiang Jinzhou stood there in a daze, watching the thin figure walking away.
She had never said such profound words before. When did she become so cultured?
He stood there pondering for more than twenty minutes without moving.
Is she deliberately saying these profound truths to fool herself?
It might be because of the bride price.
Full of doubt and resentment, he went back and called his friends, set up some wine, and complained while drinking.
"I just can't understand it. One second she was happily saying she wanted to marry me, but as soon as I mentioned the gift, she instantly refused to marry me. I had no idea she was such a person!"
My friend Liu Pengkai ate a peanut and said, "No way! Xiulan seems so well-behaved and sensible. Why would she suddenly refuse to marry because of the betrothal gift? Her mother asked how much your family wants?"
Jiang Jinzhou got angry whenever he mentioned this. "Two hundred and eighty-eight! And they want four big items. What kind of family dares to ask for so much?"
Liu Pengkai chuckled and said, "That's not much. I remember when Yang Jinbao got married last year, his wife also asked for 288 yuan, including four major items. These are all standard items. I don't think they're asking for too much."
As he spoke, he raised his chin towards Yang Jinbao whom he mentioned.
Yang Jinbao's eyes blurred as he took a puff of his cigarette. "Well, this is the general trend these days. There's nothing wrong with it."
He originally wanted to complain, but he didn't expect that both friends would speak on Liang Xiulan's side, which made him even angrier.
He picked up the wine, gulped down a glass, and put it heavily on the table.
"Even if that's the case, there should be room for negotiation! My family really can't afford that much money. Why can't she be understanding?"
Hearing this, Yang Jinbao's wife couldn't help but sneer.
"I'm so considerate of you and your family before we even get married, but what should I do after we get married? Will I be your slave?"
"It's not easy for Xiulan's mother to raise her to this age. Do you think she's just something you picked up on the street? You can just wave your hand and let you take her away?"
"Let me tell you a little secret. The last time I went to your house with Jinbao, I saw that the facial oils used by your sister-in-law and your mother were all high-end brands.
Yang Jinbao and I have been married for over a year, and I haven't been willing to buy anything, so... you can figure out for yourself whether your family is rich or not."
Liang Xiulan met Jiang Jinzhou through Yang Jinbao's daughter-in-law, so the two have a good relationship.
At this time, she naturally had to speak up for Liang Xiulan.
Moreover, she has been married and has more than a year of experience in the struggle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
If your husband says he has no money, then he may really have no money. If your mother-in-law says she has no money, then she must want her to take money!
Jiang Jinzhou lowered his head, his face darkened, and remained silent for a long time before suddenly standing up.
"I'm sleepy, I don't want to drink anymore, you guys drink it!"
After saying that, he left the table with the remaining half bottle of wine.
Behind his back, Yang Jinbao glared at his wife and scolded her in a low voice.
"What are you talking about? If he doesn't marry Liang Xiulan, he can certainly marry someone else, but he only has one mother! Aren't you trying to sow discord between them?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jinbao's wife gritted her teeth and twisted his arm hard.
"You mama's boy, stop talking! Your mother is more important, so live a good life with her. Why would you marry me?"
"You only have one mother, but she has three sons! You are not her only one!"
As he said this, he poked Yang Jinbao hard on the head, then slammed the table and left.
Yang Jinbao quickly drank the wine in his glass and quickly chased after him.
Only Liu Pengkai and two bachelors were left, and there was a sigh of regret.
"Why get married if you don't have anything to do? It's so much better to be single."
"That's right, this is like marrying an ancestor. It's really asking for trouble."
"But if Liang Xiulan marries me, I'll agree to the 288 betrothal gifts and the four big items without even thinking about it! It's not like I can't afford it!"
"Tsk, you just said you wanted to be single."
"That's just talk. If I marry you, will you agree?"
"Of course I'll jump in agreement. That girl is good-looking and has a good temper. The key is that she's tall and has a big butt. I heard that a big butt can give birth to a son. It's a pity... Xiulan doesn't like me."
"Get lost! You dare to covet your brother's woman? Do you have any shame?"
"Oh...we're just chatting nonsense. But then again, you said Jinzhou's father has been driving a tractor for two years, and I see his business is pretty good. Where does his father's money go?"
Liu Pengkai raised his eyebrows, filled his glass with wine, and sneered.
"Haha... who knows? Let's not speculate on other people's affairs. Be careful, Jinzhou's mother might come over and tear you apart!"
When Jiang Jinzhou's mother was mentioned, everyone smiled and said nothing.
His mother is notoriously aggressive and always complains about everything. Who among those sitting here hasn't been scolded by her when they were young?
But such a person is as docile as a sheep in front of Jiang Jinzhou's sister-in-law.
