Chapter 224 The Big Problem of Marrying Mr. Song
Speaking of Young Master Song, both elders of the Lu family know him and like him.
But if they were to discuss marriage with him, the two elders of the Lu family would really be shocked.
"Er Gou, are you kidding me? What are the conditions of Young Master Song's family? What are our conditions?" Mother Lu said in a serious tone.
This is obviously marrying up and the two families are not a good match.
The Lu family and the Song family are too different. This is not a surprise, but a shock.
Uncle Lu suddenly remembered something.
He suddenly stepped forward, widened his eyes, grabbed Lu Yao's shoulders with both hands, shook her and asked loudly in fear:
"Er Gouzi, you're not going to be someone else's wife, are you?!
You can't be my concubine! That would be a shame to our ancestors, and our family can't afford to lose this person!"
Lu Yao was completely speechless.
"Oh, Dad, Mom, what are you thinking about? Why don't you think of me?"
"We do want you to be well, but have you ever had any luck finding a husband on a blind date?" The second elder of the Lu family rolled his eyes at Lu Yao in anger.
Those with poor conditions were unwilling to marry Ergouzi, but this time she found someone who was much stronger. If she said there was nothing wrong, the two elders of the Lu family would not believe it.
Lu Yao couldn't help but roll her eyes.
This is because I have disappointed my parents too many times in the past, and they have formed antibodies against them. I always feel that I will be unreliable like before.
It's time to explain everything to my parents.
Lu Yao: "In fact, Mr. Song really likes me. He is impressed by my charm."
Lu Yao recalled Song Yan's incoherent confession in the alley that day.
He stuttered and his words didn't make sense.
But she understood that Song Yan fell in love with her at first sight, fell in love with her at second sight, and decided to spend his life with her at third sight.
Of course, I can treat her like this because she is a nice and charming person.
“Although I am just a child from an ordinary family, I am still young and in my prime.
Look at me, young guys and old guys all like me.
Look at my figure, I'm very strong and powerful, I'm good at fighting and working.
The most important thing is that I am a good person and I can make money. I also have a small business now.
Where can I find a girl as good as me?
It was through his repeated interactions with me that Young Master Song gradually began to fall in love with me.
I'm not going to be a concubine, he wants to marry me, a legitimate marriage with the matchmaker's words and the parents' orders!"
When Lu Yao said this, Mother Lu and Father Lu fell silent.
Er Gouzi was right. With her looks and the way she had been in the past, those guys couldn't help but look at her.
Isn't it particularly rare?
In the past, she couldn’t find a husband because she was too muddleheaded, but later on, Ergouzi really changed for the better!
Isn't it more attractive for Ergouzi to become a better person?
It should be reasonable to gain the favor of a rich young man, right?
"This kid is really good at flattering himself. Why does the tone of his self-praising voice sound so much like that of an old lady?"
The "old family" that Uncle Lu mentioned refers to his eldest brother-in-law who is a matchmaker.
I have a matchmaker at home, so of course I am familiar with his accent.
Lu Yao chuckled: "I've been on too many blind dates before, so I've learned how to introduce myself."
Alternative practice makes perfect.
It’s not a joke, it’s not about being a concubine’s wife. The two elders of the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Mother Lu's brows were still furrowed:
"But the gap between our two families is too big. Young Master Song's family is so rich. Even if we shamelessly propose marriage, what will we do with the betrothal gift?
How much should I give?
The villagers sometimes chat and gossip about the rich families in the city.
It is said that when the children of the rich people and dignitaries in the city get married, the dowry alone is over a thousand taels of silver!
There are local tyrants who want to marry their daughters to sons of officials, and they give a dowry of tens of thousands of yuan.
When it wasn’t our own business, I felt great listening to it; now that it’s our own business, the feeling is completely different.
"Oh my God, what shall we do with the betrothal gift?" Upon hearing this, Uncle Lu slapped his thigh in embarrassment.
If Ergouzi were to marry a child from an ordinary family, a dowry of ten taels of silver would be considered outstanding.
If it were Young Master Song now, the Song family might not even be interested in one thousand taels.
As for the Lu family, they were still unable to afford the betrothal gift of hundreds of taels of silver.
With this calculation, it seems like there is no hope.
"Don't worry about this, I will make the arrangements." Lu Yao said seriously.
"What do you have in mind?" As it involved the issue of money, Uncle Lu was extremely anxious and didn't want to feel at ease until he got to the bottom of it.
Lu Yao thought for a moment and said seriously, "Since Young Master Song wants to marry me, he will definitely not embarrass me with the gift.
The more he truly likes me, the less he will care about those material demands.
Because what he values is me as a person.”
Just like marriage in the previous life, many girls, when looking for a partner, say that the man must have a house and a car, and even ask for a dowry.
But when they meet true love, how many girls actually don’t want anything else but just want the other person, and even pay money to marry him.
Lu Yao knew that Song Yanyi's attitude towards her must be like that of the girl in her previous life, who loved her as a person and valued her as a person.
His conditions are right here, and Song Yanyi can estimate how much capital he has.
Under such circumstances, he was still willing to marry me, which showed that he didn't care about those things at all.
"So, Mr. Song will definitely not ask us for dowry, wedding house and other issues." Lu Yao said affirmatively, "We don't have to worry about dowry and other issues, but——"
However, the more others do this, the more self-aware you should be.
Just because people don’t care about the bride price and the wedding house doesn’t mean we won’t prepare anything and just take advantage of it.
Preparing to the best of your ability according to your own capability is a sincere gesture.
"Mom, Dad, we need to raise our family well."
