Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Lesser of Two Evils
Xu Xiaoman rushed up and broke the middle-aged man's hand, and Xu's mother hugged her and cried, "Girl, don't go...... They're beating you!"
The man turned to Xu Xiaoman and said, "This is your boyfriend? Isn't he a small boss? He's very rich, right? Why don't you see him taking money for you to spend?"
"Don't worry about it!" Xu Xiaoman was shy and anxious, struggling to pounce.
Torn his pants and added fuel and vinegar: "You are opening an Internet café and a bar, and you always have tens of thousands of dollars of income every month, right?
I was pinched by the man, looking at Xu Xiaoman's face full of tears, and his wrist was red from being grabbed by Xu's mother, so I had to show weakness and say, "You let go, you have something to say." ”
The man let go, looked at me contemptuously with his torn pants, and said with a smile: "I knew you didn't plant." ”
I ignored him, and said ruthlessly in my heart: The next time we meet, I will let you know if the master has a seed.
Xu Xiaoman pounced, picked up my face and looked at my neck left and right, and said hurriedly: "How are you?"
I put my arm around her, "It's fine." ”
I said to everyone: "I came this time, one is to visit Uncle Xu, and the other is to discuss the marriage with Xu Xiaoman, we are not young anymore, it is not easy to meet the person I like, I want to set a date to do the marriage." ”
Lao Xu was reluctant in his heart, and he wished that his daughter would get rid of the entanglement of Xu's mother and family as soon as possible, so he looked at Xu Xiaoman and said, and squeezed out the word "agree" for a long time.
I said to Xu's mother again: "I really didn't understand the situation on your side before, it was my negligence, since you are also here, let's discuss the gift money together, I plan to give Uncle Xu 100,000 and give you 100,000, what do you think." ”
The middle-aged man snorted weakly, as if there was a caterpillar in his nose, "One yard is one yard, of course you have to give the gift money," he looked at Xu's mother with a smile, "Who let her give birth to your wife, right?" ”
pointed to Lao Xu and said: "Don't think about the money you should pay!"
I pulled away his hand pointing at Lao Xu, "The matter of money, we have to wait until Uncle Xu recovers, how can there be such a reason to take advantage of people's danger." ”
Probably because I promised to give them money, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be polite to me, and the torn pants that wanted to open his mouth to speak were also stopped by him, I continued: "Let me make a statement first, the gift money will definitely be sent to you within 3 days, but I also have a request, you can't come to the door again before Uncle Xu recovers." ”
The middle-aged man gave the torn pants a color, and the torn pants glared at me viciously for a while, "You dare to play Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will abolish you!"
The money has been settled, and the family has the intention of leaving.
Before leaving, Xu's mother wanted to explain a few words, but was simply dragged out by her husband.
The last one to go out was torn pants, and before leaving, he proudly glanced at me with his middle finger, if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't beat the other man, I would definitely have to kick this kid in the face.
Xu Xiaoman leaned his head on my arm and whispered, "I'm sorry." ”
I touched the top of her head and said, "It's not up to you." ”
She took out a bank card from her wallet, "There is 110,000 yuan in this card, I saved it, let's give this to my mother." ”
"Even the bride price has to be paid by yourself, am I still human?" I pushed away my bank card, "Don't worry, I have money." ”
Xu Xiaoman didn't follow, "I don't know if you have any money, and even the house is mortgaged......"
I was stunned, "How do you know this?"
Xu Xiaoman pouted and said, "Otherwise, where did you get the money to toss a few nightclubs with Li Teng?"
I was silent, and Xu Xiaoman continued: "Why are you hiding it from me? Do you think I'm with you because of the house?"
"Of course not," I looked into her eyes and explained, "I don't want you to worry about it, the house, it's a big deal to buy you a villa in the future, depending on your boyfriend and my ability......"
Xu Xiaoman said with a smile: "I know that with your ability, sooner or later you will become the general manager, become the CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and walk to the peak of life......"
I smiled evilly: "Then I'll marry Bai Fumei first......"
"Ahem" Lao Xu coughed loudly twice, but his eyes were aimed elsewhere, and when we stopped talking, he handed Xu Xiaoman a red book that he didn't know when, "This is our family's household registration book." ”
After speaking, he looked at me deeply, "Alas!
I looked at the heavy household registration book and asked carefully, "Who are you, let's register now?"
Lao Xu glared, "You're still not happy?"
"No, no," I already felt a burst of ecstasy in my heart, "Uncle Xu...... No, Dad, I must be good to Xiaoman...... What, or you'll beat me up!"
Lao Xu glared at me, "I don't want any bride price, just a request." ”
"Hey, you say. ”
"Isn't it fashionable for young people to travel and get married now? You two also travel, and the longer you go, the better, so that your mother won't have to mess with you. ”
"Dad!" Xu Xiaoman held Lao Xu's hand and said reluctantly: "I'm not going anywhere." ”
I estimate that Lao Xu is also the lesser of two evils, rather than letting his daughter be tossed by Xu's mother's family, it is better to cheapen me. The first time I saw such a drastic father, I really admired it.
I said to Xu Xiaoman: "It's not bad to travel and get married, but we have to find a way to deal with your mother's affairs first. ”
Without waiting for Xu Xiaoman to answer, I said to Lao Xu again: "Dad, you can leave this matter to me, you are only responsible for taking care of your own body, and you will enjoy happiness with us in the future." ”
Out of the door of Lao Xu's house, Xu Xiaoman pinched me, "My stepfather, and my younger brother, a gambler and a gangster, I think they dare to do anything for money, can you deal with it?"
"Daughter-in-law, just look at it. ”
Xu Xiaoman drove, walked out of the street, and asked, "Go back to the Internet café?"
I said, "Do you remember a pot of teahouse?" ”
Xu Xiaoman pursed his lips, "You still dare to go to a teahouse? ”
"So, where you fall, we have to get up somewhere, this time brother will compensate you. ”
Xu Xiaoman was puzzled, but he still drove the car to the door of a teahouse.
It has been closed for a long time, and on the signboard, the four words of a pot of teahouse have fallen into thick dust, and there are seals on the door.
I got out of the car, pulled out a key, and inserted it into the lock hole of the roller shutter, perhaps because of the dust in the keyhole, and the lock turned very hard.
During this time, a few passers-by looked at me curiously.
"You...... What are you...... Key ?...... "Xu Xiaoman stood next to me and looked at me, quite puzzled.
I opened the roller shutter door, pushed open the wood-inlaid frosted glass door inside, patted the dust on my hands, and led Xu Xiaoman in, "The wedding gift is for you, I originally wanted to redecorate it and send it to you, but I didn't expect it to ......"
