What?
Become a live-in son-in-law?
He Guoqiang not only forced Lu Jingxing to marry He Lijuan, but also made him a live-in son-in-law of the He family.
An Wan was taken aback, never expecting He Guoqiang to suddenly say such a thing and make such an excessive request.
Lu Sen was also extremely surprised. He stood frozen in his wheelchair, opening his mouth but unable to utter a single word.
Lu Jingming and Lu Yanshu stared at He Guoqiang, never expecting him to be so shameless.
Their eldest brother has been a child prodigy since childhood, a chosen one, a top student, and in a few days he will be the top scorer in the college entrance examination. Once he gets into the top university in the capital, his future will be limitless.
He Guoqiang actually wants his elder brother to become a live-in son-in-law?
hateful!
Shameless!
Do the He family think the Lu family is easy to bully?
This is an insult to the brotherhood of the six brothers and a mockery of their cowardice.
They wouldn't betray He Sichen for a thousand yuan from Village Chief Yu yesterday.
Therefore, I will not betray my elder brother today for the sake of the He family's three thousand debts.
"I don't agree to my brother becoming a live-in son-in-law!"
“We disagree! My older brother will absolutely not become a live-in son-in-law.”
Lu Zhili tilted his head and asked, "What is a live-in son-in-law?"
"Fifth Brother, that's a good question. I heard from those aunties and grandmas that a son-in-law who marries into the bride's family is like a bride marrying into the groom's family. This time, the groom is marrying into the bride's family, and he takes the bride's father's surname. The children born will also take the bride's surname."
"The older women also said that live-in sons-in-law have no dignity, no status, no voice, and nothing. They would rather be a bachelor for life than become a live-in son-in-law. They also said that people who encourage others to become live-in sons-in-law should be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."
An Wan shouted at the top of her lungs, making her voice as loud as it could go.
On the surface, he was explaining the meaning of "live-in son-in-law" to Lu Zhili, but in reality, he was implying that He Guoqiang was shameless.
He Guoqiang and his mother's faces darkened instantly.
He Lijuan looked alright; she had no idea that a son-in-law living with his wife's family could be in such a miserable state, and she couldn't even imagine it.
She thought that the current sons-in-law who live with their wives' families are living very comfortably, because things have indeed been very good in recent years.
There was also a family with three daughters in the village. A few years ago, they found a son-in-law who moved in with them. That man spent his days eating, drinking, having fun, playing cards, and fishing. He was living a very comfortable life.
The child doesn't need him to conceive, give birth, raise, or care for it.
He doesn't have to do housework, he doesn't even have to go to work, and he even has money to spend.
Therefore, in recent years, many men have been vying to become live-in sons-in-law.
Because in the past ten years or so, many families with only one daughter or three daughters have emerged, and most of these families are quite wealthy.
The bride provides a house and a car, and gives the groom several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan in betrothal gifts. Apart from the child taking the bride's surname, there is really no difference between the two families.
If a man were to marry such a wealthy woman and have such a wealthy family, it would mean he could avoid struggling for ten or twenty years.
Some men are even more ruthless, planning to completely seize the woman's assets.
In an instant, they went from being poor to being rich.
Therefore, in recent years, many men from lower socioeconomic backgrounds have been begging to become live-in sons-in-law, treating this position as a way to make a lot of money quickly.
Only He Guoqiang and his mother knew that the son-in-law who had lived with his wife's family for twenty years had met a tragic end.
Of course, this only applies to twenty years ago; things have changed dramatically in recent years.
It's all because girls these days are blinded by so-called love.
They believe that love is of paramount importance.
If they lose love, these love-struck women would rather die for it.
“That’s not what we meant. These days, sons-in-law who move into a family home aren’t like they used to be. Now, we buy them houses and cars, and we take care of their grandchildren. It definitely won’t affect the young couple’s life.” Mother He said cautiously, her voice trembling slightly.
Having only given birth to three daughters, she was terrified in front of the Lu family, which consisted entirely of men.
People like her have almost no status in the countryside. When they go out, they are ridiculed and looked down upon by the older women.
If it weren't for her husband's love and the country's protective policies, she probably would have jumped into the river and committed suicide long ago.
This kind of thing has happened before, so often it's disgusting.
For those who favor sons over daughters, a daughter-in-law who gives birth to a daughter is guilty of a terrible crime, let alone someone like her who has given birth to three daughters and can't give birth to a single son.
“Lu Sen, we just want a son. You know our family situation, please understand us! We have three daughters, the first two are married, and now we only have our youngest daughter, Juanzi.”
“We promise to treat Jingxing very well. As long as he agrees to come to my house, I will definitely buy him a house and a car and send him to university.”
Seeing Lu Sen's gloomy face, He Guoqiang still mustered up the courage to explain his thoughts and feelings.
An Wan continued to roll her eyes. If Lu Jingxing liked He Lijuan and was willing to become a live-in son-in-law, she would not object or stop him.
I believe Lu Sen and his wife, as well as Lu Chun and his brothers, will not object and will even send their blessings. As long as he is happy, that's all that matters.
But now Lu Jingxing doesn't like He Lijuan at all.
Doesn't the He family know this?
No! They knew perfectly well, but they pretended to be doing it for Lu Jingxing's own good, as if they were giving him a handout.
"I disagree!" Yunping, who was standing at the entrance of the corridor, happened to hear He Guoqiang's words.
Making her eldest son a live-in son-in-law in the He family is simply a slap in the face to her.
Lu Jingxing was her first child and her first son; he was the hope and pillar of the entire family.
If he really becomes a live-in son-in-law, wouldn't her family be looked down upon and gossiped about by everyone?
They laughed at her family for being poor and incompetent, unable to even keep her eldest son, and forcing her to become a live-in son-in-law in order to find a wife and have children.
