Zhong Meihui was so angry when she heard her mother say this. It turned out that no matter when the time came, her mother was measuring her economic value and wanted to put her on the scale and sell her for money.

So Zhong Meihui used the words she had prepared long ago to completely stop thinking about her parents.

"I also want to take a shot, but the doctor said that my health is not very good. If I take this shot, I won't be able to get pregnant again. If I can't have children in the future, I will be rejected by my husband's family. .”

Zhong Meihui understands the customs of her hometown. The most important thing for marrying a wife is to have children. If the wife married by someone's family cannot have children, she will definitely be returned to her parents' family, and even the bride price will have to be returned.It is harder for such a girl to get married than a second-married woman with children, and she may even have to live in her natal family for the rest of her life.

Once money matters were involved, it was a big deal for her parents. They immediately stopped talking after hearing Zhong Meihui's statement, but they immediately thought of the second way.

"Since you have to have this child, we won't stop you, but you can't go back to your hometown during this period. After the child is born, we will find him a good family and no one will know."

Zhong Meihui's parents planned to hide it from the public and use the child to earn more nutrition expenses. Naturally, Zhong Meihui refused. She immediately proposed to marry the child. Anyway, there were many second-married women in the village, so they could still earn money. bride price.

After Zhong Meihui finished speaking, she hung up the phone. She gave her parents two days to digest. In the evening of the next day, Chu Shoucheng and Matchmaker Song came to propose marriage.

"You want to marry my daughter?" Zhong Meihui's parents looked at Chu Shoucheng in front of them and felt that he was a ready-made successor. It was a good thing that Zhong Meihui could take this opportunity to get married. However, it was a pity that he was a poor teacher. A younger brother who couldn't help Zhong Meihui was really not an ideal candidate for them.

"There are so many girls in this village. Why do you want to marry my daughter? Have you known each other for a long time?"

Zhong Meihui's mother kept making lies. When she saw Chu Shoucheng coming to ask for marriage, she felt that Zhong Meihui was hiding something from them. Maybe the two of them had already discussed it. Even the child in Zhong Meihui's belly was Chu Shoucheng's. If it was In that case, the bride price would naturally have to be obtained from Gaoli.

"When I sent Yingzi to Guancheng some time ago, I did meet Meihui. I thought she was generous and sincere, beautiful and kind. Originally, I planned to get married again after divorce, and Meihui was just right."

Chu Shoucheng told the truth, but it made Zhong Meihui's mother's expression dim suddenly. Yingzi had been to Guancheng for less than a month, and the child was obviously not Chu Shoucheng's.

Maybe in order to pave the way for herself, Zhong Meihui concealed her pregnancy and found Chu Shoucheng, an honest man, to take over. If that was the case, they could only nod and agree to the marriage.

Zhong Meihui's parents looked at each other and agreed with the marriage, but when it came to asking for a bride price, they asked for a total of 10 yuan.

The betrothal gift here in Shanghai County is not high, usually only 10 to [-] yuan. The [-] yuan gift Zhong Meihui's mother asked for is already a sky-high price.

"10 yuan? Mom Meihui, are you not mistaken? Our betrothal gift has a public price, usually 2 yuan. There are people who are willing to marry as low as 1 yuan. Your daughter is not decorated with gold rims. Where can I get married? It’s worth so much money.”

Matchmaker Song was the first to scream when she heard the offer from Zhong Meihui's parents. As a matchmaker, her biggest role is to discuss the betrothal gifts. The more betrothal gifts she gets, the richer her matchmaking red envelope will be.

Now Zhong Meihui's parents proposed a gift of 10 yuan. Such a price that was not in line with the market, she naturally wanted to cut more and take the opportunity to make a fortune.

"You are talking about the general situation, but is it the general situation now? This Chu Shoucheng is on his second marriage, and my daughter is on her first marriage. Marrying him is a loss. What's more, his ex-wife is a shrew known to all over the country. , if she comes to fight with my daughter in the future, how can my daughter be able to fight her, not to mention that he is also carrying an oil bottle, no matter what, it is my daughter who has been wronged. "

Zhong Meihui's mother cried hypocritically. She said that her daughter was still young, but as soon as she married Chu Shoucheng, she had to be a stepmother. Not only did she have a bad reputation, but her family relationship was also difficult to get along with.

What's more, Zhong Meihui is not an ordinary rural girl. She has worked in the city for many years. She has a lot of savings and a high income. If she doesn't get married, all this money and the money she will earn in the future will be spent at home, but Now that they have to be brought to the Chu family, the bride price will naturally be more important, otherwise, their daughter will become a defector.

"Even if your daughter is getting married for the first time, you can't ask for so much. Teacher Chu's family is a girl, and she will get married after only a few years of living. If your daughter has a son, she will not suffer even if she is the head of the family."

Matchmaker Song argued hard, but Zhong Meihui's parents were famous for their messy skills. After several rounds, Matchmaker Song didn't get any advantage. She was so angry that she wanted to drag Chu Shoucheng away. If he could really come out. He could choose the materials for 10 yuan from all over the country at will, so he had to guard Zhong Meihui.

"I think what my uncle and aunt said makes sense. I am willing to pay the 10 yuan. Meihui is a good girl, and I am willing to sell everything for her." Chu Shoucheng winked at Matchmaker Song. He had already told her before that she would not care about the other party. No matter how much dowry is offered, she will accept it.

So just go through the process of bargaining, and don’t let the marriage get lost.

"Teacher Chu is a scholar after all, and he is reasonable. You are taking advantage of 10 yuan to marry my daughter." Zhong Meihui's parents laughed so hard when they saw that Chu Shoucheng agreed to a 10 yuan gift. Pile up.

I originally thought that it would be difficult for my daughter to get married after she became pregnant, but I didn't expect that she would sell it for such a good price. With this money, their son would be able to get married and build a house in the future.

"Now that the bride price has been discussed clearly, let's choose a date to hold the engagement banquet." Matchmaker Song didn't expect that Chu Shoucheng would agree to such a high bride price, but she still followed the marriage arrangement quietly.

In their place, before getting married, an engagement banquet must be held and the bride price must be handed over to the woman's family. Once the engagement banquet is held, it means that the matchmaking is successful, and she can also get the matchmaker's red envelope.

"Then the day after tomorrow, the 18th, let Meihui come back."

The money matter was discussed and everything else was easy to handle. In order to get the money as soon as possible, Zhong Meihui's parents agreed to hold an engagement ceremony for Zhong Meihui and Chu Shoucheng the day after tomorrow, so that Chu Shoucheng would not find out if Zhong Meihui's belly became pregnant. There are signs of regretting the marriage.
