Chapter 39: I Raised You For Nothing
With so many people in the house, Cai Guixiang felt embarrassed.
“Manman, you misunderstood. This 30,000 is a gift. As for the dowry, you said 80,000, then it’s 80,000!”
Cao Man didn’t buy it. With her arms crossed and her chin raised, she said, “At first, I just wanted an attitude from your family. Since your attitude is not good, I don’t need to be polite with you.
Now my conditions have changed. The dowry is 280,000, the house is 2 million, we’ll buy it ourselves, and since we’ll be taking out a loan, my name will be on it. As for the car Weidong is driving now, it needs to be replaced, you’ll pay another 200,000.
Otherwise, there are only two outcomes: one, Weidong and I break up, and I’ll get an abortion. Two, Weidong will move into my family, and the child will have nothing to do with your family.”
Cai Guixiang jumped up, “Impossible, I won’t agree to either of those!”
“Then you meet my conditions and raise the money. As long as you give me the money, I’ll marry Weidong immediately.”
“But so much money, aren’t you trying to kill us old folks? How can a daughter-in-law be so demanding before she even enters the door?”
Cai Guixiang thought that her son’s girlfriend being pregnant would save the family some money, but she didn’t expect her to be such a troublemaker.
Cao Man sneered, “Am I being demanding? Since your family is all here today, let’s clarify this. Zilin’s sister got married, her in-laws gave 500,000 yuan in dowry, a BMW car, and the big house they bought was also written in Zilin’s sister’s name.
Nanxi’s sister got married, 2 million yuan dowry, a Bentley car, and the Guchen Yipin house was directly transferred to her name. What I’m asking for is nothing compared to that.
So, your Xia family, when you marry off your daughters, you want your in-laws to sell everything and even their lives for you, but when you marry your sons, you want to get everything for free?”
Xia Weidong was also a little unhappy and mumbled, “That’s right, Mom, compared to other girls, my wife is more reasonable. The car, the house, the dowry, aren’t these all basic things? You want a grandson, but you don’t want to pay. If you really don’t want to spend money, I’ll move into my wife’s family. Anyway, Manman’s family is going to be demolished soon, and then my father-in-law will give me an apartment.”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Cai Guixiang slapped Xia Weidong on the back, “You useless thing, I understand now. Your wife dared to demand money on her first visit, it’s all your fault. You ungrateful wretch, I’ve raised you for nothing!”
Useless thing, if he had just been a little tougher, Cao Man wouldn’t have dared to treat her like this.
Cao Man impatiently said, “Stop saying useless things. I’ll give you three days. Three days later, I want to see the money, and then you’ll see your grandson for the rest of your life. Weidong, let’s go.”
With that, she stretched out her hand, and Xia Weidong quickly helped her up.
Watching the car drive away.
Cai Guixiang started to cry, “What kind of karma did I do in my past life to get such a daughter-in-law… woo woo… what am I going to do?”
Xia Nanxi walked over to her and patted her shoulder sympathetically.
“Don’t be sad on your big day, Aunt. There’s an urgent matter at my company, they suddenly called me in for overtime, so my husband and I will leave first.”
With that, she pulled Zhan Chengyan away quickly.
Zhan Chengyan was puzzled, “What’s wrong? What’s going on at your company?”
“Shh, don’t talk.”
Xia Nanxi directly shoved Zhan Chengyan into the car, “Drive.”
Once they left Yangchang Lake, Xia Nanxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Go to Guchen Yipin, I can’t stay at home for the next few days.”
“Why?”
“Aunt is definitely going to ask us to borrow money!”
If she hadn’t left quickly, Cai Guixiang would definitely have asked Zhan Chengyan to borrow money.
