Li Li said gratefully: "It's really troublesome for you, Manager Liu, sit down quickly!"

Deputy Manager Liu sat opposite Li Li and said righteously, "Manager Li seems to be quite busy lately?"

As the deputy manager, he originally had no right to intervene in the manager's private affairs, but for the sake of the business development of the sales department, he couldn't help but ask.

Li Li knew that she had been taking leave more and more frequently recently, and she had delayed a lot of work, so she was very ashamed and weak in the face of Deputy Manager Liu's questioning.

"Well, there's been a lot of private affairs lately......"

When Deputy Manager Liu heard that it was a private matter, he was even more worried: "But Manager Li, as the head and leader of our department, you should still focus more on work." ”

Li Li was like a junior being reprimanded by an elder at this time, and she said with little confidence: "I know Deputy Manager Liu, I won't ask for leave for the next period of time, work with peace of mind, I've really caused you trouble in the past two days." ”

Deputy Manager Liu nodded expressionlessly, and Li Li saw that he was getting up to leave, so he hurriedly got up and prepared to send him out.

"You don't need to send Manager Li, you can be busy. ”

Deputy Manager Liu is really serious and responsible for his work, and Li Li suddenly has a feeling of being supervised by his elders.

After Deputy Manager Liu left, Li Li cheered up and maintained a high enthusiasm for his work like Deputy Manager Liu.

At the end of the day's work, Li Li drove back to his mother's house.

Mother Li saw that Li Li was coming back alone, and thought to herself that something was wrong, this marriage wouldn't be Huang, right?

Mother Li dragged Li Li to the living room, pushed him to the sofa and sat down, and asked nervously, "Li Li, why did you come back alone? You won't quarrel with Xiao Zhao again, right?"

Li Li's expression was depressed: "No, he went on a business trip to film." ”

When Li's mother heard that it wasn't a quarrel, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, it's good if it's not a quarrel~ Have you eaten?"

Li Li fell on the sofa and said weakly, "No." ”

As soon as Li's mother heard that her daughter hadn't eaten yet, she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go to the kitchen to prepare a big meal.

Li Li knew from looking at her mother's posture that she was going to cook for herself.

Li Li hurriedly stopped his mother's action: "Mom, just do a little bit of it, I can't eat more!"

Li's mother nodded in agreement and immediately plunged into the kitchen.

Li Liwo watched TV on the sofa for a while, and it didn't take long for him to smell the aroma of food.

Li Li said that he was not hungry and had no appetite, but his body was still very honest.

She moved to the dining room and saw that several dishes were already on the table.

Sweet and sour pork ribs, boiled pork slices, vinegared shredded potatoes, tomato scrambled eggs, every dish is Li Li's favorite food.

"Mom, didn't you want to cook a little less? Look at your big table of dishes, how can you finish eating!"

Li's mother was still busy in the kitchen, and after hearing Li Li's voice, she responded loudly: "It's okay, I'll eat again tomorrow if I can't finish eating!"

Li Li walked into the kitchen and said to Li's mother, who was still busy: "Mom, I've been living at home for the past few days, you don't have to do so much at once." ”

It turned out that Li's mother was afraid that her daughter would leave again tomorrow, so she cooked all the dishes Li Li liked to eat tonight.

After learning that her daughter would be home tomorrow, Li's mother immediately stopped what she was doing.

"Then I won't do it, and I'll make the rest of the dishes for you tomorrow!"

Li Li nodded, and the two mothers and daughters looked at each other and smiled.

Li Li hadn't sat alone with his mother for a long time, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, neither of them knew what to say, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, only the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding.

After a while, Li's mother suddenly asked an important question.

"Lili, how much dowry is Xiao Zhao going to give to marry you?"

Li Li didn't expect her mother to ask such a sharp question as soon as she opened her mouth, she and Zhao Qifeng had never discussed the bride price, and she hadn't thought about it herself.

Mother Li saw that Li Li hesitated for a long time and didn't reply, she was a little anxious, put down her chopsticks and said with a serious face: "Lili, you can't just marry for nothing! Although we are not a big family, we still have to have the etiquette, right? Otherwise, what is the difference between you and upside down?"

Mother Li didn't want Zhao Qifeng to have a lot of money, she just wanted an attitude from him.

It's a pity that Li Li didn't know, she thought that her mother was greedy for Zhao Qifeng's money and wanted him to give her family a huge amount of money.

Li Li was a little angry, but because it was her mother sitting opposite, she suppressed her anger and patiently explained: "Mom, Qifeng is very good to me, I don't need him to give me any dowry." ”

Li's mother was not happy to hear it, she felt that her daughter was too stupid. How common it is for this man to change his mind, who can guarantee that Zhao Qifeng will be good to Li Li for the rest of his life?

People will change, only money will not change, and a little bride price will not at least not be empty for future talents.

Li's mother was about to speak to persuade Li Li when her phone rang.

It was Zhao Qifeng who called, but he really knew how to choose the time.

Li Li hesitated to pick it up, and when Li's mother saw her daughter's expression, she knew that it was Zhao Qifeng calling.

She directly snatched the mobile phone from her daughter's hand and pressed the answer button: "Hey, Zhao Qifeng?"

Zhao Qifeng, who didn't hear the voice at first, asked in surprise: "Who are you?"

Mother Li said angrily: "I'm Li Li's mother!"

When Zhao Qifeng heard that it was his mother-in-law, he immediately tensed up: "I'm sorry aunt, I didn't hear it just now." ”

Li Li was very angry at Li's mother's behavior of directly snatching her phone, she got up and wanted to take the phone back, but Li's mother didn't give her a chance, she stood directly on the chair and said loudly at the phone: "Zhao Qifeng, how much dowry are you going to use to marry Li?"

Zhao Qifeng never seemed to have thought about this crucial issue. As soon as Li's mother reminded him, he immediately attracted attention.

"I really forgot about my aunt's bride price, how much do you think I should give?"

Zhao Qifeng is also direct, and he doesn't beat around the bush at all, which makes Li's mother a little surprised.

Is this Zhao Qifeng so refreshing?

Li Li didn't dare to compete with her mother standing on the stool, she was afraid that something would happen accidentally, so she could only watch her mother negotiate with Zhao Qifeng on it.

After thinking about it seriously, Li's mother gave Zhao Qifeng a number: "Two hundred thousand, not a single point is missing." ”

Li's mother felt that she had already made a huge amount of money, but she didn't expect it to cause Li Li's laughter.

"Mom, you really look up to your daughter!"

Li Li didn't expect that her value in the eyes of her mother was only 200,000, but she just thought that her mother wanted the lion to open her mouth and knock Zhao Qifeng hard.

Zhao Qifeng was also shocked by the number of 200,000, he didn't expect the wedding bride price to be so low.

"Auntie, do you confirm that the bride price is 200,000 yuan?

When Mother Li heard that the other party was cheap, she thought that this Xiao Zhao was really a rich man.

"That's 500,000!"

Mother Li thinks that she has said an astronomical amount, but this is also an insignificant amount of money in Zhao Qifeng's heart.

"Auntie, if you don't do this, I will give you one million directly, thank you for raising Li Li for so many years. As for the one for Li Li, I have to think again. Li Li She is willing to marry me, and I must give her my most precious thing. ”

Li's mother was so shocked that she couldn't speak after hearing Zhao Qifeng's words, Li Li saw that her mother didn't move for a long time, so she stood on the chair and took back her mobile phone.

Before the phone hung up, Li Li hurriedly explained to Zhao Qifeng: "I'm sorry Qifeng, my mother ...... just now"

Halfway through Li Li's words, Li's mother came back to her senses, and she said in surprise: "Lili, Xiao Zhao just said that he wanted to give me a million?

Li Li hurriedly covered the microphone of his mobile phone, for fear that Zhao Qifeng would hear what Li's mother said.

"No, no, you heard me wrong!"

After Li Li said two perfunctory sentences, he continued to explain to Zhao Qifeng, who knew that people heard it clearly just now, and Li Li was interrupted before he could speak.

"Li Li, you tell your aunt that she is not dreaming, it is true. ”

Li Li's face was black, one million, is this marrying a daughter or selling a daughter? The amount is huge, and she feels that this is not a wedding bride price, but a transaction amount.

Li Li objected: "Qi Feng, the bride price is just to please a good fortune, you don't have to give so much money to marry me." ”

Zhao Qifeng didn't listen to persuasion, he still insisted on his opinion: "Li Li, who is fine, is only a million, how can it be considered too much?"

Zhao Qifeng only knew that the amount of the bride price represented the weight of the bride in the groom's heart, so he must give Li Li all his precious things.

Li Li is about to collapse, she doesn't want her marriage to become a transaction, she just wants the two of them to become husband and wife simply because of love.

Li Li wanted to continue to persuade, but Zhao Qifeng didn't give her this opportunity.

"Okay Li Li, the director called me, I'll hang up first, remember to take good care of yourself. ”

The phone hung up, and Li Li was not good.

She put down her phone and leaned back in her chair expressionless.

Li's mother saw that her daughter was in a very bad mood, and she thought that it was Li Li who was sad about asking about the bride price just now, so she began to admit her mistake.

"I'm sorry, I'm leaving, my mother is just doing this to rest assured, in case your marriage with Zhao Qifeng ...... in the future"

When the words came to her mouth, Li's mother swallowed it back.

"Okay, okay, since Xiao Zhao said that he has no opinion, don't worry about it, and prepare for the wedding with peace of mind!"

Not to mention that the wedding is okay, when it comes to the wedding, Li Li's head hurts even more.

The designer called her only in the afternoon, saying that things about the venue were a little tricky.

Because Li Li asked for the wedding ceremony to be held outdoors in the snow, and he had to ask for a nearby hotel to receive guests, and he also required a high degree of privacy, which was simply a problem.

Designer Wu didn't find the answer to this dilemma, so she could only throw the question to Li Li.

The more Li Li thought about it, the more upset he became, and went back to his room without saying a word.

Mother Li watched Li Li return to the room and didn't dare to say anything more.

Just now, I just talked about the issue of bride price, which made my daughter so unhappy, and I really have to be cautious in my words and deeds in the future.

When the child is older, she can't care so much about being a mother.
