Leaving her weird mother-in-law and husband, she became a wealthy woman on her own

Chapter 2 I want to be a rich girl, not a flattering slave

Sijun and Manxian’s first kiss was still at the traffic light intersection.

Ever since they held hands for the first time, the two of them would never let go of each other’s hands when they went on a date. Whenever they walked together, they would hold hands.

Sijun likes to hold hands with Manxian, and Manxian is very cooperative.

In a blink of an eye, another ten days passed. During this period, the two went on three more dates, and each time they said goodbye with reluctance.

This night, ten days and nights had passed since the two held hands for the first time.

Sijun really wanted to kiss his beloved girl and confirm their relationship.

Sijun is a shy boy. He only dares to hold hands but not kiss. Even though he is eager to do so, he is afraid to move forward.

He secretly looked at Man Xian's red lips, digesting his inner desire.

That night, the two were together for three hours, and Man Xian prepared to take the bus back to the dormitory by herself.

She shared a house with two colleagues near the hospital where she worked.

The two came to a traffic light intersection, and the light was now red.

Sijun didn't cross the road, so he helped Manxian cross the road.

He originally wanted to send Manxian to the bus, but Manxian felt that he was also very tired, so she didn't let him.

The red light is counting down and will turn green soon.

There is no time! What to do! Sijun finally plucked up the courage and said to Manxian: "Can I... hug you?"

Man Xian said, "Okay, okay, give me a hug, hurry up, the light will turn green soon."

The two of them hugged each other like this.

Sijun felt the fragrance of Manxian's hair really intoxicated him.

Also, Manxian leaned forward with her head resting tightly on Sijun's shoulder.

After hugging for about ten seconds, the light turned green and Man Xian prepared to turn around and cross the road.

Sijun couldn't help but kiss Manxian.

People are coming and going on the zebra crossing at the intersection.

Man Xian's eyes darted around and she felt very shy, but she didn't push Si Jun away.

The two kissed for about ten seconds, then reluctantly separated.

After all, this was a crossroads in a busy area, and as the two of them kissed, 95 percent of passers-by would turn their heads to look at them.

Both of them are low-key and shy people. After separating, they each got on the bus to go home.

The sweet flower of love is the most beautiful in the world, and no beautiful thing can compare to this sweetness.

The two of them entered a honeymoon period. During the honeymoon period, since they were both busy with work during the day, they would meet almost every day at night, and sometimes they would chat in the park until one or two in the morning.

For Manxian and Sijun, this period can be said to be the happiest time in their lives.

The two are the same age, but Sijun is less than two months older than Manxian. They are both quite grown up and are almost thirty years old.

Since the talks were going so well, the adults on both sides naturally urged them to get married.

The Dragon Boat Festival is not a festive holiday, but it is a day to pray for happiness and health. Manxian officially came to Sijun's house as a girlfriend and had dinner with Sijun's family.

Sijun was naturally delighted. After dinner, he sent Manxian to her dormitory, kissed her hard, and told her, "I love you!"

Manxian was extremely happy in her heart. She responded to Sijun's kiss warmly, and then the two of them said a lot of sweet words to each other. Only then did Sijun reluctantly go home.

The weather was exceptionally hot in the midsummer of that year, and Sijun's desire to marry Manxian was even hotter than the weather.

Sijun's mother entrusted the matchmaker, who is actually Manxian's aunt, to ask Manxian's parents for help in proposing marriage and to find out how much dowry Manxian's family wanted.

Sijun still tirelessly came to the dormitory building where Manxian lived every night.

Since Manxian shared the apartment with others, which meant there were outsiders present, the low-key and shy Sijun didn't dare go upstairs. He could only take Manxian to the nearby park for a walk, or just talk in private downstairs in the dormitory.

Soon, Sijun's mother said that the bride price would have to be more than 30 yuan, which made his parents very uncomfortable.

Sijun's family all live in the city, so Sijun's parents think that it is a great honor for a girl from the countryside to marry into a family in the city. In this case, they should follow the rules of the city.

The bride price in the city is very cheap, less than double digits.

The bride price in rural areas is very expensive, and hundreds of thousands or even millions are common.

Sijun's mother told Manxian's aunt about her opinion. Her aunt's final feedback was that since Manxian's cousin's wedding gift last year was 32 yuan, Manxian would take a compromise number of 16 yuan.

Sijun's family reluctantly accepted it.

Sijun and Manxian both work in other places and are not in their hometown.

Sijun's mother called her son who was working in another city and told him that both parties had reached an agreement on the bride price, which was set at 16 yuan.

Sijun was very happy and told Manxian the result.

After hearing this, Man Xian felt extremely unhappy.

"Why? I don't want to marry into the so-called city. The marriage of a girl in our family costs at least 300,000 yuan, and at most 400,000 or 500,000 yuan. This 160,000 yuan is too inconsiderate to our dignity!"

Sijun said: "My mother said that this is the highest price. Boys in our city don't pay more than 10 yuan to marry a wife. I'm much higher than other boys."

Man Xian smiled and said, "You just live in the city, but isn't your hometown also in the countryside? Why don't you set the price according to the customs of your hometown?"

Sijun's face suddenly turned ugly: "We have lived in the city for generations, we are city people. I haven't been back to my hometown for more than 20 years. Why should I follow the customs of my hometown! We are city people! This price is already higher than others! It can't be higher! Otherwise, I will lose face!"

Man Xian sneered and said, "Huh! Then what? How many children should I give birth to for you after I marry into your family?"

Sijun said: "At least two. The country advocates having two children, and now it advocates having three children."

Man Xian continued to sneer: "So, since you have already decided on me as your daughter-in-law, I must give birth to at least two children for you? No need to ask for my opinion! Well, if you have any other decisions, tell me!"

"We didn't have an internal appointment. Isn't this what you should do? From now on, you have to call me mom and dad. Every day when you come home and go out, you have to say hello to them to show respect."

Man Xian said: "Does that mean we have to take care of the housework as well?"

"We can do housework together. It's nothing. Our family members will do some as well."

"So, I am your family's reproductive machine. You have already decided that I should give birth to at least two children. I should also respect your parents, greet them when I come home every day, and say goodbye to them when I leave home, right? And I will not neglect the housework either. At most, you are just helping out, right?"

Sijun said with an unhappy look on his face: "Don't say that, okay? Aren't these what you should do?"

Sijun didn't expect that Manxian would say angrily, "You and your family have no respect for me at all. You don't even take me, your future daughter-in-law, seriously! I'm telling you! I, Zhang Manxian, want to be a rich lady by my own ability, not a slave to flattery!"
