\u0003\u001aThe man coughed twice and said, "I found a good match for your daughter! But it was according to your requirements! He promised to give her three turns and one ring, plus a betrothal gift of three hundred! But he is a little old..."
Zhuang Shihong's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this: "Really? That person agreed?"
"I agree, I agree very much! I have to say something ugly, the man is a bit old, about 30 years old, divorced once and has no children! Is your family willing?"
"What kind of job?" Zhuang Shihong asked again.
"He who drives a big truck makes a lot of money! He lives in our area. His name is Li Ming."
Hearing this name, Jiang Xun frowned.
Coincidentally, he happened to have heard of this person.
The man was in his thirties and drove a truck. He made a lot of money and usually spent his days eating, drinking and having fun with his friends.
He beat his wife when he was in a bad mood, and he became even worse after drinking. He beat her so hard that she had a miscarriage and could not have any more children, so he kicked her away.
...
...
Aunt Zhuang didn't even bother to inquire about this scum and villain, but was tempted to marry her daughter off just because of the high bride price.
Isn't this pushing my daughter into the fire?
Such a good girl was treated as a commodity by her parents. He heard it when they were discussing the bride price just now.
I guess she had a very hard time at home.
Zhuang Shihong was delighted when he heard that driving a large truck could make money: "That's great! Send a message to that person and ask him to find a time to meet him!"
"Wait." Jiang Xun's low, mellow and magnetic voice sounded, "Aunt Zhuang, today is a blind date between me and Comrade Ye Li! Isn't it inappropriate to discuss marriage with other matchmakers?"
"That's right, everything has a first come first served basis." Zhao Xingmei was also very dissatisfied with this.
Before they left, Aunt Zhuang started discussing with other matchmakers.
Zhuang Shihong turned around, folded his hands in front of his chest and sneered, "Okay, then you tell me, do you want to take the betrothal gift or not?"
"I accept the betrothal gift you mentioned." Jiang Xun said loudly, "I will come to marry her in a week when I have collected enough betrothal gift."
Zhuang Shihong slapped his thigh and laughed: "Okay! That's it!"
"I will be here on time one week from now! Aunt Zhuang, please don't arrange any more blind dates for Ye Li during this period!" Jiang Xun said seriously.
"Don't worry about this matter." Zhuang Shihong turned around and said to the man, "You heard it too, my eldest daughter's marriage is settled! Forget about the man you mentioned."
After the bride price was agreed upon, Zhao Xingmei pushed her son out of the compound.
As they walked, Zhao Xingmei complained bitterly, "Why did you agree to it just like that? The betrothal gift is really too much... I have never seen such an outrageous betrothal gift."
Jiang Xun smiled and said, "Mom, I still have a lot of resettlement money. I calculated that it's not much different."
"How much difference is not much difference?"
"About a hundred dollars."
"Mom will give you some money," Zhao Xingmei said. "When you get home, ask your dad to find some tickets and ask someone to buy the three-turn and one-ring tickets and send them to his family."
Jiang Xun agreed: "Okay."
As the mother and son were walking, they turned a corner and saw Ye Li standing at the entrance of the alley, fiddling with willow branches to make a grass wreath.
Huh!
This heartless girl.
Zhao Xingmei thought to herself, no wonder this girl is already twenty and still unmarried, most people can’t afford such a high bride price!
"Aunt Zhao, Jiang Xun." When Ye Li heard the noise of the wheelchair, he looked up and saw the mother and son.
"Comrade Ye." Jiang Xun greeted him.
Just now in the room, he didn't even look at Ye Li carefully, he just felt that this girl was stunning at first sight.
Now he looked at her carefully. This girl was indeed very pretty. In this age when everyone was hungry, most people had pale faces, but this girl had a fair complexion.
A pair of eyes are clear and bright, like the stars in the sky.
She was a little thin, but had long legs and a slender waist that looked as if it could be pinched with one hand.
"Are you leaving?" Ye Li asked.
"Yes." Zhao Xingmei laughed twice, "I'm rushing back to prepare the betrothal gifts and marry you as soon as possible."
Ye Li was not surprised at all that they agreed to this.
In his previous life, Jiang Xun also accepted that huge betrothal gift.
Now that she was reborn, she would never let her mother succeed no matter what.
"Aunt Zhao, I don't want a penny of the betrothal gift! Don't listen to my mother."
"If you don't give her the gift, she will definitely not let you get married."
"I have a good idea. I guarantee you won't have to pay a cent for the bride price."
Seeing Ye Li's seriousness, Zhao Xingmei thought this might be a good idea: "Girl, you tell me."
"Choose a good day and ask Jiang Xun to come out. I'll steal the household registration book... and we'll go directly to the street office to register."
"What?" Zhao Xingmei was stunned. "This... Is this possible?"
“Yes!”
Jiang Xun looked up at the girl in front of him, his Adam's apple slid twice, and said, "This will bring you trouble."
"I'm not afraid! Are you afraid?"
Looking at this girl with a bright smile, his heart suddenly started beating fast: "I'm not afraid, but this is not right!"
"If you want to get my mother's consent and don't have a high betrothal gift, forget it in this life! No one's money comes from the wind, so why not save it for something else?" Ye Li smiled at him, took out a pen and a small notebook from his pocket, wrote a line of words, tore it off and stuffed it into Jiang Xun's hand, "Remember the specific time and address."
Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the paper, he was a little absent-minded.
After a pause, he asked, "Why do you want to marry me?"
Ye Li smiled and put the grass ring she had woven around Jiang Xun's neck: "Jiang Xun, because you are a man! You are a soldier! You are a hero! I like you!"
After saying that, she waved at Jiang Xun and said, "I'm leaving. Remember our agreement!"
Zhao Xingmei was stunned by this scene: "Is this... this girl... is this girl okay? Is this good thing that fell from the sky and landed on us?"
Jiang Xun stared at the note in his hand, his brows furrowed.
"Wait." He stopped her, "Since you say this about me, I can't agree with you doing this."
Ye Li: “…”
What a great young man who possesses the five virtues, four beauties and three loves!
Her mother is just waiting for people like this to come and extort big money from them!
However, Ye Li soon realized that Jiang Xun did this for her...
In her previous life, she once asked Jiang Xun why he agreed to such an absurdly high betrothal gift!
He replied: He wanted to give her a different life and make her happy.
He did it, but unfortunately she was forced to part ways with him due to heavy pressure in reality.
If for no other reason in this life, just for this, she must make it up to him and love him passionately and unrestrainedly.
Ye Li stared at him, her eyes sparkling: "Jiang Xun, you wait for me! You must wait for me! I have a way, I must marry you!"
After saying that, she smiled, turned around and ran away.
Jiang Xun kept watching the young and enthusiastic figure leave, and then he withdrew his gaze.
Zhao Xingmei pursed her lips and smiled: "This girl is a hundred times better than her mother."
Jiang Xun didn't say anything. When he turned around, there was a suspicious blush on the tip of his ear.
