Chapter 665: Using Marriage as a Bargaining Chip
Jiang Xiaohui sat silently, he was not an unfilial person, and if his mother burst into tears, he felt uncomfortable.
After a long time, he said in a low voice: "It's not that I don't want to go back, and it's not that I didn't want to bring you to Yundu, but there is no good time." What I don't mind is that you came to Yundu, but that you didn't confirm with me before you came directly. Mom, have you ever thought that there are many liars in society now, and the society is complicated, what if it is a liar? I figured out our situation, so I came to lie to you. ”
Jiang's mother looked at her son indifferently and whispered, "People like us, can you still lie to us at this age?" Can you still come to the house to cheat? ”
"Today's liars do everything they can, and in order to succeed, they may come to the house." Jiang Xiaohui said.
"No, your parents are not such stupid people, can you still tell if they are liars? Besides, the current liars are all targeting those young girls, where will they deceive us? ”
"Everybody is a target for scammers, because everybody has organs in them, as long as they are healthy, they have the value they use, organs, free labor. Mom, be vigilant in the future, don't talk to anyone, you believe it. Don't you have a sense of prevention, don't you even have a father? Jiang Xiaohui asked.
Father Jiang raised his eyes, and finally spoke up: "Jin Yu is not a liar at first glance, he is well-dressed, speaks politely, and is extravagant, can a liar afford to invite such a noble person to act?" Your parents aren't stupid, and of course they're here for a reason. ”
Jiang's father's words fell, and Jiang's mother immediately nodded: "Yes, we must have investigated, your father is here, and I am not alone at home." That girl looks like she came from a big city, and she speaks with that momentum and temperament, and she can't find anything like it in our small county. When we looked at it at the time, we didn't ask much, and when we heard that she was from Yundu, we immediately thought if it was our eldest daughter-in-law. Mom treated her as a daughter-in-law at the time, you said this, is it just fate at a glance? ”
"Mom, do you think Jin Yu is good?" Jiang Xiaohui asked.
Jiang Mu immediately nodded: "Okay, of course." Anyway, I think Jin Yu is much better than the Kiki who I haven't met. At least Xiaoyu is willing to accept our whole family for you, and she also took our whole family over. But what about the one in front of you? The dead man...... Hmph, how many years have you all been, let alone meeting, not even on the phone. I don't care about any morality or immorality, anyway, whoever puts our Jiang family in my eyes, I will recognize whoever is my daughter-in-law. ”
Jiang Xiaohui didn't respond for a while, Sheng Yuqi really disliked his family.
And this dislike is still based on the fact that he said that his father was a university professor and his mother was a high school class teacher.
Even if it is a scholarly family and his father is a professor with such a family background, Sheng Yuqi is reluctant to bring his parents to Yundu, and during the New Year's holidays, Jiang Xiaohui proposed to go home, but Sheng Yuqi also refused. refused Jiang Xiaohui to go home, and refused to accompany Jiang Xiaohui home.
Therefore, in terms of family, Sheng Jinyu is of course stronger than Sheng Yuqi.
But in the face of Sheng Jinyu, Jiang Xiaohui will be more calm.
Because when facing Sheng Jinyu, he didn't tell too many lies like he did to Sheng Yuqi. Sheng Jinyu shouldn't be very clear about his family background, but Sheng Jinyu doesn't care about this thing.
Jiang's mother finished her words and looked at her son carefully, "So, what do you think?" ”
Jiang Xiaohui raised his eyes, "I didn't think much of it, let it be." ”
"I see that Xiaoyu has done a lot for you, so you can promise her." Jiang Mu said in a low voice.
Jiang Xiaohui suddenly raised his eyes, "Mom, were you persuaded by her to be a lobbyist?" ”
"I'm not a lobbyist for anyone, I'm for you, son. I just think that Jin Yu's child is very good, although she is not particularly gentle and lovely, but she will also consider people for the sake of others. She cares about you very much, so as soon as she arrived here today, she drove us all to her house and met the eldest lady. The eldest lady is also very nice and polite to us. I see that the atmosphere in the eldest lady's family is very good, and she is very good with you, her daughter-in-law is a good person at first glance, especially good at talking, can do things, and is also dedicated to you and Xiaoyu. It's the second wife, who has a vicious mind......"
Jiang Xiaohui didn't wait for Jiang's mother to finish speaking, and immediately said in surprise: "You guys actually went to the Sheng family?" ”
Jiang Mu nodded: "Huh? ”
Jiang Xiaohui immediately stood up, it seems that Sheng Jinyu really did this, she really did it.
The gloom on Jiang Xiaohui's face was instantly swept away, and he smiled: "Mrs. Dafang really understands the general situation and has a sense of the overall situation, after all, she is the head mother of the Sheng family, except for the old lady, the eldest lady of the Sheng family has the final say." ”
"Huh? And then what? You think we shouldn't go to the house, do you? "Jiang's mother doesn't quite understand what her son means.
Jiang Xiaohui shook his head: "No, I'm just surprised that you went directly to the Sheng family." Sheng Jia ...... It's not like we are, not everyone can take it to the house. It can be seen that Xiaoyu attaches great importance to you. ”
"Yes, that's it, as soon as we arrived in Yundu, they took us directly to the house, and the eldest lady seemed to be resting or something. I was going to eat together in the evening, and I invited the old lady, but the old lady said that it was too cold this day, and it was really inconvenient to go out, so we all went to her to eat. I agree, I want to go see the old man's house, it's a matter of course. But your father and your brother, they both refused. ”
"It's right not to go, the old lady is probably just mentioning it. It's really going to go, it's quite troublesome. Jiang Xiaohui said with a smile, his words were relaxed, completely different from the heaviness just now.
Sheng Jinyu did this, which can be regarded as giving him enough face.
At least in front of his family, she and the Sheng family paid enough attention to him, and he was not too down.
Moreover, he has already gone to the Sheng family, which shows that the Sheng family has also promised the matter between them.
Sheng Jinyu said before that he invited his family to discuss the marriage between them, and it seems that he really didn't lie to him.
Jiang's mother said: "Should I go, I didn't think about it so much, I just think that an old lady is thinking that she is older, and she likes to be lively and hospitable the most. But your father refused, and when I heard him say it later, I realized that I really shouldn't go. It was also the first time we went back to someone's house, and we didn't bring anything. It's okay to be rude when you see your in-laws, you still have to go to the old man's house, and you can't really say anything if you don't carry something. So we went. Besides, it was late at that time, and many people went, and maybe people couldn't be prepared, and going at night would be troublesome, so your brother also refused. Mainly, I still don't know what you think about this kid. ”
Jiang's mother said, looking at her son again.
"Son, the main thing is that we don't know what you think. said that we are here to discuss your marriage with Jin Yu, but we don't know yet, whether this is wishful thinking on the part of Jin Yu alone. What do you think? If you don't mean that, we won't go to meet the Sheng family in the future. How enthusiastic are the eldest wives and their families? If you refuse someone's daughter, I'm embarrassed to go again. ”
Jiang Xiaohui said in a low voice: "Look." ”
"What are you looking at?" Mother Jiang was anxious: "You came over tonight, didn't you just explain this matter to us?" Are you still going to say it? ”
Jiang Xiaohui was silent, and Jiang's father said: "What do you plan, tell me, don't face me and your mother, you still have reservations." ”
"I don't have any other thoughts, I just think that Yuqi has not been gone for long, and it is too early to say this, and the water outside can drown me. I want an image, and my image doesn't allow me to do these things now. Jiang Xiaohui said.
Jiang Mu didn't understand these words, and immediately said: "I don't care what your image is not like, you have to tell the truth, you just say that you have that heart for Xiaoyu." If there is, then we are your family, you can say this, but if you don't, we have to apologize to the Sheng family on behalf of you, thank them for looking up to us, and then, how did we come, how to go back, your affairs, what happens to you in the future, we can't take care of it, we will go back to live our little life, do you understand? ”
Jiang Xiaohui was silent and actually started to eat barbecue.
I swallowed it and refused to confess, not wanting to say my thoughts happily.
Mother Jiang was so angry: "What do you think? ”
"You can do whatever you want, I have no opinion."
Jiang Xiaohui held back such a sentence for a long time, which gave Jiang's mother that anger.
"What do we think? First of all, I have to think what you think, then let me ask you, what is your attitude towards Xiaoyu? Jiang's mother asked.
Jiang Xiaohui eats a lot and barbecues beer, this is the normal life of his life in the hotel these days.
I have been holding back for many years, these things, the Sheng family doesn't like them, Sheng Jinyu is a little more tolerant than Sheng Yuqi, Sheng Jinyu will accompany him to eat some barbecue or something, but street food, basically don't need to mention, people are high-level people, you propose to eat those, you don't think it's appropriate to say it yourself. Sheng Yuqi resolutely refused him to eat these so-called junk food, and she herself refused.
But I haven't eaten it for too long, and Jiang Xiaohui misses it very much.
In the hotel these days, I have completely let go and let go of eating, this unrestrained life is very decompressing and very comfortable.
"It's okay." Jiang Xiaohui said something for a long time.
Jiang Mu twisted her eyebrows, "What?" ”
Jiang's mother looked back at Jiang's father again: "You are talking about your son, what does he mean by this?" ”
"Mom, how about it, you can take a look at the sincerity of the Sheng family first, don't be too anxious." Jiang Xiaohui said in a low voice.
As soon as Jiang Xiaohui's words came out, Jiang's father raised his eyes directly, and it was obvious that his son's words confirmed his guess.
"What do you mean by that?" Mother Jiang didn't understand, "What do you want?" Looking at the sincerity of the Sheng family, do you want to hang the Sheng family? ”
Jiang Xiaohui didn't speak, and ate with his head bored.
Mother Jiang was stunned for a while, looked at her son, and said in a low voice: "Xiaohui, you are not kind like this." If you have that meaning for Xiaoyu, we can do this, and your parents will support you. But if you don't like it, you don't mean that to Xiaoyu, let's make it clear to the Sheng family, we can't drag others. But you have this attitude, so you don't mean that to Xiaoyu, right? You didn't mean that, but if the Sheng family gave you the conditions and promised something, did you agree? ”
Jiang Xiaohui raised his eyes: "I still have to get married and start a family in the future, instead of worrying in the future, the Sheng family has a ready-made one, and the conditions are okay." As with a job, if this condition is possible, why not consider it? ”
Father Jiang nodded slowly, and Mother Jiang turned her head to look at Father Jiang: "Old Jiang, you are persuading Xiaohui, how can you do it with such an attitude of your son?" Son, this is not kind. ”
"If a man puts his career first, then marriage is secondary. As long as you can help your son, then such an opportunity can be considered. ”
Father Jiang nodded approvingly, after all, the times are different now, and for the sake of career and development opportunities, you have to be cautious in choosing objects.
If you don't have that opportunity to choose, you naturally don't have to think about it, but if you have the opportunity to choose, it is naturally the survival of the fittest, which is the rule of social progress.
"What are you talking about, old man?" Mother Jiang asked with a dark face.
Jiang's father said: "I support my son's choice." ”
"Do you still support it? You are still a teacher, how did our family educate our children since childhood? You're not helping to abuse? ”
Father Jiang analyzed seriously: "It's not that serious, it's the same as you dislike Xiaohua's girl now, it's not because the situation in our family is different from before that you dislike it." Our son's current status is different, the level is already above that, now leave Yundu and give up the current ready-made opportunity, he has to go to someone who is lower than him. How's that going to work? ”
Mother Jiang looked at Father Jiang, "You ...... What words? ”
"We don't provide better conditions for our child at home, and now that he has reached this level with his own efforts, do you still want to pull him to our lower level? Jin Yu's girl is good, and there is nothing wrong with marrying her. The main thing is that I think the wife of the big house is not bad, although it is not Geno, but it is the luxury of a wealthy family, which is different from ordinary market women. You have to know what kind of status our son is in now, staying in the Sheng family, this is the best choice. Father Jiang said seriously.
Jiang's mother disagreed: "You treat marriage as a transaction? ”
"Then our son will have to get married in the future, right? He has already been married once, and then he will meet his fancy himself, when? Can the other party's conditions be better than Miss Sheng's? Almost, your son can't look down on you anymore, you don't want your son to be single for the rest of his life, right? ”
"What about the happiness of the son? He probably doesn't like Xiaoyu so much, right? If you don't like it, how can you barely be together? Jiang's mother asked.
Jiang's father said: "Feelings can be cultivated, now at least Xiaoyu is very good, but it is better than in the past, when the matchmaker said in the past, as soon as the head was covered, he got married, and he didn't meet until he got married, and then he cultivated his feelings." How many people have lived like this all their lives. ”
Jiang's father's words, Jiang's mother couldn't respond, because she was quite right.
"Then, don't I feel wronged by our son." Jiang Mu said.
Jiang Xiaohui only said at this time: "Jin Yu and Yuqi sisters, I prefer me Jin Yu." In all aspects, I am more compatible with Jin Yu. ”
When Jiang Mu heard this, she was dumbfounded: "Huh? ”
"My marriage to Sheng Yuqi was a mistake from the beginning." Jiang Xiaohui let out a low voice.
