Zhang Yu was also not surprised by the old couple's decision. When she met them by chance at the train station that day, she could see that Cheng Jian's parents were very disappointed with their only son.

As working class people, how could they agree when they heard that the woman their son married made this request with such confidence?

That was money that the Cheng family could not raise even if they sold everything they had. Especially after knowing Cheng Jian's personality, they would not spend all their savings just for this son and even owe money to others. That was absolutely impossible.

Everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with what Cheng Jian’s parents did.

"If my in-laws make this request in the future, I would rather not have a son."

Everyone nodded, "Exactly. Raising a child costs so much money, and it turns out that getting married costs so much money."

"The Jiang family should be very happy." Zhang Yu felt that the Jiang family made such a condition probably just to allow Cheng Jian to marry into the family.

"The Jiang family agrees."

Mike gave a definite answer. Everyone wondered if the reason why the Jiang family made such high demands was just to get Cheng Jian to marry into the family.

"The rich are really cruel." Even marriage requires such calculations.

"It's okay, Cheng Jian should be happy." After all, someone's biggest wish is to be with Jiang Lili.

Whether it is marrying a wife or marrying into the wife's family, it doesn't matter. What matters is the result.

Everyone felt that what Zhang Yu said was very right, "Yes, yes, the process is really not important, what is important is the result."

"In short, Cheng Jian finally married into a wealthy family."

Everyone was joking, and after knowing the news they wanted, of course they had to share it with everyone.

Soon, the betrothal gift proposed by the Jiang family in order to get Cheng Jian to marry into the family shocked everyone. Then, after Jiang Lili's parents said that marrying a girl from the Jiang family would be the greatest blessing for them, everyone started to say that it was difficult to marry a girl from a wealthy family.

The news quickly spread from the investment bank. The Jiang family had not had a strong heir in recent years, which had caused many families to avoid marrying into the Jiang family.

Now that Jiang Lili's request for a betrothal gift has spread, everyone has expressed their desire to keep their distance from the Jiang family.

Even if the family has some wealth, he would not marry a girl from a declining family, let alone ask for so much betrothal gift. It is really like a toad wanting to eat swan meat. It is wishful thinking.

Many people who had long disliked the Jiang family, of course, spread the news quickly after hearing it.

Of course, Uncle Jiang and his family heard the rumors outside, but they did not consider how to deal with the news.

After all, it costs money to process this information, and the family assets have already been distributed to each branch. They are definitely not willing to spend this money, as it is still their own money.

The other branches of the Jiang family certainly heard the news, but they didn't care, or they just wanted to laugh at Jiang Lili's joke and would do whatever they wanted afterwards.

No one from the Jiang family refuted the rumor, and in everyone's eyes, this was tacit approval.

Moreover, they also asked the Jiang family and found out that the news was true, it couldn't be more true. Everyone was shocked. If the Jiang family was on the rise, would the Jiang family join forces and give so much betrothal gifts? Is that excessive?

It's really not excessive at all. It would be a strong combination to get involved with the Jiang family. But the current Jiang family is really not worth the money.

By marrying into the Jiang family, we don’t know who we are helping, and the Jiang family now gives people the impression of being a very short-sighted family.

For a while, the Jiang family was rarely invited to social circles, for fear that someone might get drunk at a party, force themselves on someone, and end up being blamed.

The Jiang family has done this kind of thing in previous years. At that time, the Jiang family was not as poor as it is now, but there were already people doing this. I dare not imagine how many people will do the same thing after the Jiang family falls into poverty.

At first, the Jiang family didn't react and wondered why there were fewer gatherings. After they went out to ask around, they found out that there were gatherings, but no one notified them anymore. How could they not be angry?

They felt that those people looked down on them and that the Jiang family had fallen on hard times, so they didn't want to have any contact with them.

When they get angry, of course they will quarrel with others and go to their homes to question why they were held at the party without inviting them.

Although everyone didn't want to pay attention, but Mr. Jiang was still around and they couldn't make things too awkward, so they told them the reasons why they were not invited. Anyway, there was nothing that couldn't be said.

As a result, everyone knew about the betrothal gift requirements put forward by Jiang Lili's family. Besides laughing at the joke, outsiders also directly implicated the other families and looked at them with prejudice. How could the people in the other families tolerate this? Of course they couldn't tolerate it.

Because of this, there was a lot of back-and-forth within the Jiang family. Everyone was mainly targeting Jiang Lili. If it weren't for their family's outrageous actions, things wouldn't have turned out like this.

Of course, the matter eventually came to the attention of Mr. Jiang, who was very angry. Compared to the outrageous actions of Jiang Lili's family, he didn't know whether to say that they were stupid or that the Jiang family was self-centered and very fragmented.

This also accelerated the speed at which Mr. Jiang reported to the underground, but now no one knew how things would develop to this point.

Zhang Yu really wanted to congratulate Cheng Jian on her upcoming marriage into a wealthy family, but then she remembered that she had already blocked someone.

Forget it, since you have already blocked someone, don’t provoke them.

Cheng Jian was in a bad mood right now. He sat on the sofa and asked, "Mom and Dad, are you just going to let me marry into your family?"

Cheng Jian wanted to marry Jiang Lili, but he had never thought of marrying into her family's family. The Jiang family looked down on him, and if he married into her family's family, who knows how they would laugh at him.

And if Zhang Yu knew about this, he didn't know how she would laugh at him. Although he also knew that he was a big joke in front of Zhang Yu, he didn't want the situation to get worse.

Cheng's father and mother watched Cheng Jian making a fuss without any change in their expressions.

After Cheng Jian made a fuss for a long time, he found that his parents didn't show any emotion at all, "Why? I am your only son."

"For the sake of your only son, we gave you all our assets and even went out to borrow money. Don't tell me that you will help pay it back when the time comes."

"When you were studying, you said you would be filial to us after graduation."

“But after you graduated, we didn’t see the money you made, and you still want us to give you money.”

"Cheng Jian, do you think your father and I can still believe what you said?" Mother Cheng stood up coldly.

"Since you are marrying into the family, everything will be based on the Jiang family."

"We won't participate. Your father and I won't be there on your wedding day."

"As for my family, I have no plans to hold a wedding banquet. Your wife is also busy and doesn't look down on our poor relatives."

"After marriage, whether you come back or not is up to you. We won't force you."

"After the child is born, we will also fulfill our responsibilities as grandparents."

After saying that, the two of them left with their luggage that had been packed long ago.
