That's right.
Xu Tao was not joking when he mentioned the arranged marriage between their children to Jiang Ning.
Once the betrothal is finalized, he and Shen Jingnian will be in-laws.
Xu Tao became more and more excited as he thought about it.
He never imagined that one day he would become in-laws with a big shot like Master Shen and have to eat at the same table with him.
"A betrothal for our children?" A look of worry flashed in Madam Xu's eyes. She then asked, "The Shen family is a prominent and wealthy family. Will they agree to this?"
Although Xu's mother had also considered having her son marry a daughter from a prestigious family to change his social class.
But the Shen family is no ordinary prestigious family!
Xu's mother was still self-aware enough.
Madam Xu simply wanted to use Xia Ying and Jiang Ning's relationship to solidify the Xu family's business.
after all.
Jiang Ning's reputation speaks for itself.
As long as you have even the slightest connection with Jiang Ning, you can take a shortcut!
"Why not? Xia Ying and Mrs. Shen are best friends! They used to live in the same dormitory. Xia Ying said that she and Mrs. Shen are so close that they're practically inseparable! Since they're such good friends, what's wrong with arranging a marriage between their children? Besides, isn't it popular these days for best friends to arrange marriages between their children?"
In Xu Tao's view, some things just sound a little difficult.
It's actually not difficult at all in practice!
Nothing in this world is difficult if you set your mind to it.
After all, Xia Ying and Jiang Ning's relationship is undeniable.
Besides, arranging a marriage between children isn't anything unusual. As long as he can convince Xia Ying to be on the same page as him, the marriage will definitely be arranged.
Xu Tao is full of confidence in this matter.
Upon hearing this, Xu's mother felt that her son made a lot of sense. "Get married! Let's get married right away! Go tell Xia Ying that our family is willing to offer a bride price of 588,000 yuan! She can make any requests she may have!"
In the past, Xu's mother disliked Xia Ying as much as possible, feeling that Xia Ying was not good enough for her precious son.
Now, Xu's mother just wants Xu Tao to marry Xia Ying as soon as possible!
Only in this way.
Only then can they preserve the betrothal between their family and the Shen family.
Once the betrothal is arranged, the Xu family will finally be able to hold their heads high in the capital!
Let alone 588,000, even 888,000 would be acceptable to Xu's mother.
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, as if she had already arranged a marriage between herself and the Shen family.
“Okay, Mom,” Xu Tao nodded. “Don’t worry, our family and the Shen family’s marriage is now a done deal.”
Mother Xu's eyes were filled with pride. "Tao Tao, you truly are worthy of being my son, Liu Lanzhi's son! You have ambition and ability! Our family will depend on you from now on!"
Hearing his mother's words, Xu Tao puffed out his chest even more. After a moment, as if remembering something, he said, "By the way, Mom, before Xia Ying and I get married, please don't spread this around, not even to my uncles. You can't see into someone's heart. If they find out, they'll definitely try to steal her away!"
As human beings, who doesn't want to climb to a higher social class?
Xu Tao has a cousin named Liu Zhi who is also single.
Most importantly, Liu Zhi is better than him in height, education, and appearance!
so.
My uncle absolutely must not find out about this.
Based on Xu Tao's understanding of his uncle, if his uncle found out that Xia Ying knew Jiang Ning, he would definitely send Liu Zhi to pursue Xia Ying.
Xia Ying is a person with no bottom line; she can get into bed with anyone she flirts with!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have pursued Xia Ying so casually and won her over so easily.
so.
This matter must absolutely not be known to anyone else.
Xu Tao has already decided that he wants to have more children with Xia Ying in the future, and that his son will marry a daughter of the Shen family, and his daughter will marry into the Shen family as a daughter-in-law!
In this way.
Before long, the Shen family and the Shi family will completely become the Xu family.
