Chapter 177: So pretentious
Xu's mother knew Xia Tingting. Not only did she know her, she also always wanted Xu Daqiang to marry Xia Tingting. The Xia family was wealthy, and Xia's father and mother were both workers. They only had Xia Tingting as their daughter.
If Xu Daqiang married Xia Tingting, then everything in the Xia family would be his own in the future. Unfortunately, it was all ruined now, and it was ruined by his own son. Thinking of this, Xu's mother gnashed her teeth.
"Tingting, what are you talking about, little girl? What do you know? Your brother Daqiang just said something wrong because he was shy. It's late at night, you should go home quickly and stop making trouble here."
Feng Yu rolled his eyes. "The matter has already been exposed. Aunt Xu, can you tell me if these two children can go and get their marriage certificate tomorrow? If not, then we should call the police immediately. After all, hooliganism is no small matter."
Father Xu restrained Mother Xu, who was about to jump up and down. "Get the marriage certificate. Daqiang originally came to your daughter Lingling today to discuss the marriage certificate tomorrow. Now there is no need to discuss it. How about this? Daqiang will come to pick up Lingling to get the marriage certificate tomorrow morning."
Zou Lingling almost couldn't hold back her upward curves when she heard what Xu's father said. Feng Yu looked at his worthless sister-in-law, then at the neighbors gathered around him, and nodded. "Then Uncle Xu, shouldn't our families discuss the betrothal gift?"
Xu's mother was not happy about Xu Daqiang marrying Zou Lingling, but she had no choice but to do so because of the situation. "It's just 18 yuan and a set of clothes. Everyone knows our family situation, so this is all I can offer."
Feng Yu pulled Zou Lingling, who was about to speak, and said, "Go to your aunt's house and call your mother over. You and her can go to the police station and report that someone is harassing you and that the neighbor has held him down. Just ask the police to arrest him."
Xu's mother held Feng Yu back and stopped her from moving. "Hey, hey, hey, why are you calling the police? Didn't we agree to get the marriage certificate tomorrow? Why are you throwing things out now?"
Feng Yu pulled back his arm, "Auntie, you're obviously not sincere in discussing our child's marriage with me. These days, who can get a wife for 18 yuan? Do you really think we're short of your 18 yuan? You're obviously bullying Lingling and coming to my door to act like a hooligan."
Liu Cuihua watched the fun and said, "That's right. These days, in our village, marrying a daughter-in-law requires at least one big item besides the gift money. Otherwise, no family would be willing to marry their daughter off. The betrothal gifts from you in the city can't be less than what we give in the countryside, right?"
The aunt next to her nodded repeatedly, "My eldest nephew got married recently. Not only did he prepare all the necessary things, but he also prepared a lot of furniture for the new house and gave the bride a gift of 36 yuan.
The Xu family wants to spend a dozen dollars to marry a daughter-in-law, obviously they want to get something for nothing. Oh, do you think that today's incident is not caused by their family wanting to get a daughter-in-law for free?"
Feng Yu wanted to applaud the aunt who was watching the fun. "Aunt Xu, listen to what everyone is saying. Look at how other people marry their wives, and then look at your family. Do you really think our Lingling is stupid? I now suspect that what happened today is not simple. Maybe your family has been planning this for a long time. Otherwise, we should call the police."
Father Xu gritted his teeth and looked at his son, who had kept his head down and remained silent since he came over.
"We really don't have that much money. We've been neighbors for so many years, you know what I'm doing. How about this? I'll go out and borrow some money. We'll prepare a bicycle and give Lingling 66 yuan. Lingling, do you think this is okay?"
Zou Lingling burst into laughter and said, "Sure, I'm willing to do that."
Seeing that the main person had nodded, Feng Yu knew that he could not force anything out of her, so he nodded in agreement and said, "Go, Lingling, go call our mother back."
Seeing Feng Yu still nagging, Xu's mother was almost furious. "You already agreed, why are you still yelling? Feng Yu, I'm telling you, don't go too far."
Feng Yu was not angry, but smiled. After all, this annoying sister-in-law was going to get married.
"Aunt Xu, my mom is always in charge of Lingling's marriage. We have to get the marriage certificate tomorrow morning. Don't we have to wait for my mom to come back and discuss the wedding arrangements with you? My mom is in charge of all the etiquette."
Father Xu could only put on a smile and said, "Yes, yes, the important matters of the family must be decided by the mother-in-law. Lingling, go and call Daqiang, and bring him along. Otherwise, it will not be safe for a little girl like Lingling to be here in the middle of the night."
Feng Yu: "Hey, everyone, you've seen the excitement, let's go back home at night. Today's incident was that the two little ones went a little too far.
The two children are also shy and thin-skinned, so everyone should give them some face and don't mention what happened today in the future. After we get the marriage certificate tomorrow, we can have the wedding in a few days. Then they can give out wedding candy to everyone so that everyone can share in the joy."
Xu's mother also knew that today's incident couldn't be escalated. She suppressed her anger and forced a smile, "Let's all go. We'll definitely buy some more wedding candy for everyone later."
Liu Cuihua saw that most of the people outside had left and was about to go home. She turned around and saw Xia Tingting standing motionless at her door. "Why don't you leave? It's cold at night, don't you think it's that cold?"
Xia Tingting blinked as she watched Zou Lingling walk away.
"Aunt, you know, Lingling used to be my best friend. Actually, I knew Xu Daqiang was not a good match, but because Lingling had plotted against my job and wanted to send me to the countryside,
So I didn't stop Lingling from marrying Xu Daqiang, and I even added fuel to the fire between them just now. Auntie, do you think I was being too much?"
Shi Luo didn't understand why Xia Tingting said all this to Liu Cuihua, and muttered softly, "Brother Hao, you and Xia Tingting have been colleagues for a while, and she has always been so pretentious. She has done the work, and she is telling this to her godmother to gain her godmother's approval and relieve herself of the psychological burden."
Jiang Hao put his arm around Shi Luo's shoulders and said, "How should I put it? I don't know why there are always all kinds of things happening around her, big or small. Most of the other female colleagues in the office dislike her, but the male colleagues all like her. But she always gets fussy with that Gu Simo whenever she has something to do with him. It's not like she has to be fussy with everyone."
Liu Cuihua is an old sparrow in Dongting Lake, and she can't help but see what the girl in front of her means. "Young girls are quite thoughtful. You don't know whether you are going too far or not. It's late at night. If you can't figure it out and want to go home, don't stand at my door blocking my way home."
Xia Tingting was stunned by these words and stepped aside blankly.
Liu Cuihua rolled her eyes at her two sons who were acting as door gods. "Hurry up and go home. It's so cold. You've already seen all the excitement, why are you still standing here?"
Xia Tingting turned her head to look at the two people who suddenly appeared, and remembered what she had just said. Her face turned red, and she lowered her head and ran home.
