Xu Changan knew that Wanruo didn't want to put herself in a difficult position, but the current family conditions... might make it difficult.
"Okay! It seems that my son is really capable. He can make women spend money on you willingly. I think you are not marrying a wife for the family. You are being a son-in-law!" Xu Guoyong said sarcastically.
"What are you talking about! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at when you say this? Of course the son is going to marry a wife home. Don't talk nonsense." Zhao Hongying interrupted hurriedly.
"So you were also afraid of being laughed at, then why didn't you say anything when you divorced?" Xu Guoyong got angry and started coughing violently.
Zhao Hongying couldn't bear to see him coughing so violently. If he really got sick from being angry, wouldn't that be a waste of the family's money?
"Don't worry about me, I'll just die, cough cough!"
"Why are you saying these angry words? If you die, those people outside will be waiting to see our family laugh at us!"
Zhao Hongying raised her hand and rubbed his back. "Alright, alright, don't be angry. I won't argue with you anymore! Okay?"
"Chang'an, didn't you say you had money? Go buy your dad's medicine for next month, and buy some food for the family too. We're out of food!"
"Okay." Xu Changan had no money. After he answered, he turned to look at Su Wanruo.
He didn't even need to ask, Su Wanruo understood, "I'll go get you the money."
Zhao Hongying seemed to have thought of something. She helped Lao Xu back into the house and secretly asked her son, "How well-off is Su Wanruo's family?"
"After all, their conditions are better than ours. Wanruo's parents both have proper jobs, and they'll get a pension when they retire!"
"Really?" Zhao Hongying nodded thoughtfully.
"Mom, it's definitely wrong for me to ask Wanruo for money now, but I don't have the ability yet. I will return the money to her in full in the future. Don't have any other thoughts." Xu Changan said in advance.
"Look at what you said, it's so polite. What can I think of it?"
Zhao Hongying patted Xu Changan on the shoulder and said, "I'm your mother. Of course I'll consider everything for you. Li Qingge has found a good partner!"
Xu Changan hummed softly.
"Su Wanruo's qualifications are simply not good enough for you. My son is so outstanding, he can definitely find someone better! Forget it, let's do this for now. When you are truly capable, we will find someone even better, and it must be better than the one Li Qingge found!"
"mom!?"
"Okay, I won't say anything more," Zhao Hongying waved her hand. "I didn't say anything else, and you're upset! Don't ever get married and forget about your mother!"
Xu Changan: “…”

There was no extra room at home, so Li Junshan and Jiang Baozhen went to stay at the county guesthouse and would come back tomorrow morning.
Zhang Xiulan was very embarrassed. "You said you guys finally came here once, so I should let you stay at home!"
"It's okay. It doesn't matter where we live." Jiang Baozhen smiled and turned to look at her son. "What's wrong with you?"
Li Hanting said in a light voice, "I'll take you there," and he would come back later.
Li Junshan is drinking!
Can't drive.
"Okay." Jiang Baozhen nodded.
"Mom and Dad, I'll go with you to take a look." The guesthouse in the county was not easy to find, especially late at night. Li Qingge was worried that Li Hanting wouldn't be able to find it.
"Okay," he said, feeling more at ease with his daughter by his side.
Watching the car drive away, the Li family turned back to the house.
Li Hao just learned to ride a bicycle today. He rode around in circles in the yard, and Nannan kept clapping his hands!
"Slow down." Ran Lijuan saw that her son had been busy all afternoon and would definitely be too tired to sleep tonight.
Zhang Xiu Lan called her son and daughter-in-law back to the house, she had something to say.
Ran Lijuan saw that her mother-in-law looked a little serious, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could something have happened?
Li Jianping looked at the room full of gifts and thought, the marriage his daughter found for him is pretty good.
"Han Ting's parents are in business, and it seems they have a pretty big business. There's a clear gap between our family and them!" Zhang Xiulan said, "I originally wanted to give a dowry in the same amount as they give as a betrothal gift."
"Mom, where did our family get the 300,000 yuan?" Li Qingdong scratched his head. He didn't know his family was so rich.
"Let mom finish what she's saying!" Ran Lijuan bumped his arm in annoyance. She always interrupted him!
"That's what I'm talking about. Our family simply can't afford a dowry of that much money. You should give it to the best of your ability!" Even if Zhang Xiu Lan sold everything she had, she couldn't afford a 300,000 yuan dowry. She was powerless.
"I have something else to say—" Li Qingdong silently raised his hand. "Well, as for the dowry, we should add whatever our sister needs. Qingge...what does she need?"
If we talk about the three most popular items to give as gifts, the ones from the Li family are better. If Qingge takes them, they will be like antiques!
Useless!
If we talk about giving her money, the money given to her is not even enough.
"I called you here to ask you to help think about it and see if we have anyone who can accompany us."
"Mom, I need to think about this matter slowly." Ran Lijuan couldn't think of it for the time being. In fact, her sister-in-law didn't need all the things that she could usually accompany her with!
What her parents gave her were just a few quilts.
How many quilts does the Li family still need now?
Li Jianping frowned, "Or else, go ask your grandfather and see what he thinks."
"Okay, I'll ask Grandpa tomorrow." Grandpa must be asleep by now! Li Qingdong hesitated, "Dad, when I went out today, I seemed to see Xu Changan and his girlfriend coming back!"
"We are talking about something happy now, but you have to bring up something disgusting!" Ran Lijuan complained.
"That's what I was saying. Didn't Xu Changan and his girlfriend say they were getting married a long time ago? Why is there no news yet?"
"It has nothing to do with us." Li Jianping's face turned serious. "Don't mention it in front of Qingge anymore. It's bad luck!"
Li Qingdong nodded, "I understand."
Of course, he wasn't that stupid, so he certainly wouldn't tell his sister.
Especially in front of my brother-in-law.
…
County, guesthouse.
There are plenty of empty rooms, and the best rooms are arranged.
Jiang Baozhen was reluctant to hold Li Qingge's hand, "Qingge, auntie really wants you to chat with me tonight!"
"Mom, you've talked so much today, aren't you tired?" Li Hanting said helplessly.
It's quite lively atmosphere.
"I'm doing this all for you! I have to leave a good impression in front of your parents-in-law, otherwise they will not be willing to marry their daughter to you."
Jiang Baozhen snorted softly, "I used to think you were too stupid! It took you so long to figure it out. You're far worse than your father was back then..."
"Ahem, why are you talking about me again for no reason?" Li Junshan was a little drunk, but not too drunk, so he knew what they were talking about.
