Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

Zhong Meihui took Chu Shoucheng back to her parents' home. As soon as he saw them, Zhong Meihui's father took the lead and loudly accused Chu Shoucheng and Zhong Meihui of being unfilial.

"Someone's daughter went out to work when she was thirteen or fourteen years old. She sent all the money back home to build a house for her family and marry her brother. But as for you, how much you sent back is not enough for your mother and I to eat. It’s okay if you really don’t make any money, but you would rather use the money to support a man than use it to honor your parents, you are simply worse than a pig or a dog.”

Zhong Meihui’s father confuses right and wrong when he first comes up. He makes it sound like Zhong Meihui is watching her parents starving and freezing at home, but doesn’t care and just enjoys herself outside. In fact, Zhong Meihui’s family conditions are not that bad. , their family has a house and land, and they can be self-sufficient even if Zhong Meihui does not send money back.

What's more, Zhong Meihui sends living expenses to her family every month, which far exceeds the local alimony standard. Even if her parents go to court, she will have a valid case.

"I don't care about that. Before a girl gets married, all the money she earns belongs to her mother's family. This is the rule from all over the country. If we raise you until you are in your twenties, you should enjoy a few years of happiness, but you have to take the money you earned before." Take it to someone else's house, are your parents raising you like this in vain?"

Zhong Meihui's father said it rightly. He didn't care what the law said. Anyway, Zhong Meihui was born to them and it was their private property. She must sell the house in Guancheng and give them the money. Otherwise, they would Just go to Chu Shoucheng's school to make trouble and see if they can live a better life in the future.

"Father-in-law, it was because I had this half house that I gave him a gift of 10 yuan. There is a matchmaker to prove this. You have already received the money, how can you ask for another half of the house?"

Chu Shoucheng spoke very logically. When Zhong Meihui's parents dared to ask for such colorful gifts, it was because Zhong Meihui had pre-marital property. Now that they have received the gift, they want to take back Zhong Meihui's pre-marital property. It is obviously a violation of the law. It broke their previous agreement and was not in line with local customs.

"I don't care, I want this half of the apartment now!" Zhong Meihui's father only recognized the truth he believed in, and began to play blatantly rogue, but he did not expect that Chu Shoucheng would join his army.

"Since we are talking about rules and local customs, let's have a good chat. Father-in-law, you also have a son. You should know what will happen if you go back on your word on the bride price if you are engaged here. If this matter becomes public, you Will my son still have a girl willing to marry?"

Chu Shoucheng directly used his trump card. In Lu County, there is an unwritten rule that no one can go back on the terms negotiated after being witnessed by the matchmaker.

If someone regrets temporarily, the other party can propose to terminate the engagement and receive corresponding compensation. Of course, there are also some rogue people. Most of these people have no unmarried children at home. Otherwise, their younger brothers and sisters will never be able to pass the marriage. Married on a blind date.

After all, the matchmakers in Shanghai County all have the same information. Anyone who goes back on their word will be criticized by everyone. No one dares to marry such a family to avoid many complications in the marriage.

Zhong Meihui didn't expect that there was such a custom in Hu County. She glanced at Chu Shoucheng and was not sure whether he was deceiving her father.

But after he said these words, Zhong Meihui's father's face darkened obviously, and he was obviously worried about what he said.

Zhong Meihui didn't expect that everything Chu Shoucheng said was true, and he knew very well what his father cared about most. In his eyes, the only thing more important than money was his son.

When he thought about his son's future marriage, he was not as confident as before when asking for money.

"That house is worth 14 yuan. How can 10 yuan be enough? If I marry my daughter to you like this, wouldn't we suffer a loss! Besides, I asked for 10 yuan that day because my daughter has the ability to make money. She didn’t say she would give you the money she earned before.”

Zhong Meihui's father was unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to try again. He started to mess around and tried to disturb Chu Shoucheng's memory. But he knew very well what he had said to the matchmaker that day, so he dodged his eyes when he spoke and did not dare to do so. Look into Chu Shoucheng's eyes.

"Then what do you mean now, give you another 4 yuan?" Before he finished speaking, Zhong Meihui interjected. Now she also discovered her father's weakness and directly took the initiative in this negotiation.

"How can 2 yuan be enough? Do you think I can't settle accounts? The gift itself was [-] yuan, but now I only gave [-] yuan, which is still [-] yuan short."

Zhong Meihui's father finally expressed his request. If Zhong Meihui wants to get married smoothly, she must make up for the bride price of 6 yuan. Otherwise, he will never let her marry into the Chu family, even if his son finds her in the future. If he doesn't have a wife anymore, he won't let the Zhong family's money go to waste for someone with a foreign surname.

Chu Shoucheng glanced at Zhong Meihui, and after seeing her nodding secretly, he knew that he could agree to the matter, but he still looked like he was in a dilemma and told Zhong Meihui's father that he didn't have that much money.

"Father-in-law, I can give you this money, but I have no money now. You also know how much a teacher's salary is. Our family borrowed the previous gift of 10 yuan. We don't know when we can pay it back. Now We even rented the new house where we got married, and you still want 6 yuan. Isn’t this embarrassing us?”

Chu Shoucheng spoke so pitifully that Zhong Meihui's father's eyes dimmed again just as they glowed.

If you promise to give money but don't have any, wouldn't it be like writing a free note? Who knows when the money can be given to him. If he and Zhong Meihui get married like this, it will be even harder to get the money back in the future.

"You are really useless. You are a second-married woman with a fortune. You can't even afford a house to get married in. You rely on renting to support your life. You are living in such poverty. How much will my daughter have to eat if she gets married in the future? It’s painful, don’t we as parents feel heartbroken!”

Zhong Meihui's father changed his strategy and actually took the family route, crying to Chu Shoucheng. Zhong Meihui's mother cried bitterly, feeling that her daughter would have to suffer for most of her life after marrying him.

The miserable looks of the two people made Zhong Meihui confused for a moment what her parents wanted to do, but 10 minutes later, she heard the strange conclusions of the two people.

"My daughter has to suffer so much when she gets married. If you don't compensate us with more money, will we feel comfortable?"

The bizarre theories of these two people completely shocked Zhong Meihui. She knew that she had suffered in the past, but she wanted her husband to pay more. Wouldn't her future husband's family become even poorer and make her life even more miserable? .
