Chapter 85: My Cousin's Marriage
When I looked at the call, it was almost an hour ago. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
I didn't know what was going on when my mother called, so Lin Quan immediately called back.
"Hey, Mom, I just went to dinner and forgot my phone in the office - what's the matter?"
"Quanzi, your uncle's cousin Mingjie will get married on the twenty-third of next month, can you ask for leave then?"
Mingjie's cousin is about to get married? It's really fast, I remember that he seems to be the girlfriend he just talked about at the end of last year.
On the twenty-third day of the next month, it should be the middle and late April of the solar calendar.
In the countryside, the older generation is still accustomed to using the lunar calendar, and even though Lin Quan's mother has lived in the county for more than ten years, this has never changed.
However, where will the uncle's family get the bride price money at that time?
Lin Quan suddenly thought of a question, last year, his father had a driving accident, but he borrowed all the tens of thousands of savings that his uncle's family had, and Cousin Mingjie was going to get married next month, where did the money come from?
Lin Quan doesn't think that the woman will be so generous that she doesn't want her uncle's family to pay the bride price.
With today's social climate, even in the countryside of Lin Quan's hometown, if you want to get married, you don't have to think about it if you don't give the woman's family a bride price of 180,000 yuan.
Although most of this money will be used by the woman to buy a dowry, there will definitely be no less than what should be sought.
I can't let someone else's daughter marry a lot of bride price money into the door, and then all kinds of dowry are complete, and the car is sent, and my daughter is shabby, and the dowry is not enough to fit into a pickup truck, right?
That's too shameless!
Thinking of this, Lin Quan asked this question.
On the other end of the phone, Mother Lin was obviously a little worried, and said:
"Why don't you want a bride price? The woman said clearly that she would not marry her daughter without a bride price of 100,000 yuan, and they said that they would send a small car at that time, and the money must come from your uncle's family. ”
Although his mother didn't say it explicitly, Lin Quan also knew that his uncle must have tactfully approached his parents, hoping that their family could help think of a way.
After all, my uncle's family works outside all the year round, and the annual income is so little, it is impossible to accumulate such a large amount of money in this small half a year.
Moreover, if the uncle wants to borrow money at this time, he will not be able to borrow so much for a while, and there is no way to be sure that he can only come to his parents to collect the debt.
Of course, Lin Quan will not blame his uncle, their family is now forced to the edge of the cliff, and there is no way.
"Your father and I are also very worried now, if it weren't for our family borrowing your uncle's money, they would be able to make up the 100,000 yuan bride price, but now, alas, ......"
Speaking of this, Mother Lin let out a long sigh, once upon a time, where would her family be troubled by these tens of thousands of dollars?
As the old saying in the countryside goes, people are not old enough to be three poor and three rich in this life, and who knows when you will encounter a big problem.
Lin Quan almost couldn't help but say, "Mom, don't worry about money, I'll figure it out", but after thinking about it carefully, my mother may not only not be happy after hearing it, but also worry about herself.
After all, their working mothers don't know that they killed and squeezed out more than 2,000 yuan a month to send back, how could they get such a huge sum of money as tens of thousands of yuan in a short time?
So, Lin Quan could only comfort his mother for the time being:
"Mom, you don't have to worry too much, after all, there are still more than 20 days, during this time, we will slowly figure out a way, if it doesn't work, I will go to my classmates for help, take out a loan from the bank, and pay it back to my uncle's family first."
"Loans? How can it be so easy to get a loan? You don't have anything to pledge and you don't have a serious job, so why should the bank lend you money? ”
Lin Ma doesn't believe that Lin Quan can get a loan smoothly, not to mention, if you borrow money from the bank, you don't have to repay the interest?
"Why is Mingjie in such a hurry to get married, I remember that he and that girl have only known each other for less than half a year, right?"
Knowing that his comfort would not have any effect at all, Lin Quan could only temporarily change the topic. Speaking of which, he still felt that his cousin's marriage decision was a little too hasty, could it be ......
Sure enough, Lin Ma on the other end of the phone sighed again and said:
"Your uncle didn't want them to get married so early, it's not your cousin Mingjie's fault, the girls are almost three months pregnant, and they can't be delayed any longer."
Lin Quan couldn't help but be stunned, good guy, the two have only known each other for less than four months, and the girl is already almost three months pregnant!
Today's young people are really powerful enough!
"The girl's family said that they would get married as soon as possible, and they would have to do it in a beautiful way, otherwise they would rather force their daughter to beat the fetus and not let her marry in a shabby manner."
Listening to his mother's words, Lin Quan was even more stunned in his heart, this girl's parents didn't seem to be fuel-efficient lamps, and they actually used the child in their daughter's womb as a threat, to force the uncle's family to get together the 100,000 yuan bride price no matter what.
After chatting with my mother for a few more words and asking my father about his recent physical condition, the mother and son hung up the phone.
Putting down the phone, Lin Quan's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
For this money, he is really worried, not a question of whether the money is enough. Now that there are more than 20 days left before my cousin's marriage, let alone tens of thousands of yuan, I can easily earn back more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan from the game.
The crux of the matter is, what should I think of in order to make my parents accept that I suddenly have this huge amount of money?
Is it possible that you really have to learn from the protagonists in those novels, using the very bloody reason of buying lottery tickets to win the lottery?
However, there seems to be no better way than this panacea-grained reason.
Can you still say that you picked it up from the ground?
Or, say that you have changed jobs with a monthly salary of more than 100,000 or 200,000?
No kidding, these reasons are even more unreliable than winning the lottery, and a three-year-old child won't believe it!
"Whatever, anyway, there are more than 20 days left, I want to go slowly, I really can't bite it to death and say that I won the lottery, even if my parents don't believe it, they can't verify anything."
Shaking his head, Lin Quan didn't think about it anymore, he got up from the bed, put on his clothes and shoes and went out.
The top priority now is to have lunch to fill your stomach, and then continue to return to the game to fight for the first kill of the boss Mephisto at the end of the third act.
With a series of experiences in the game in the past few days, Lin Quan's strong heart in his bones has gradually been hooked.
Of course, it's a good thing that you can withdraw game coins, but if you go for the coins entirely, wouldn't you treat the game as another kind of work?
What's the fun in that!
Since the mysterious helmet that fell from the sky allowed him to participate in the game of this other world, then he must also leave something in the game.
Well, this first step starts with fighting for Mephisto's first kill!
