During the chat, Bai Xiaoling didn't stop talking and just ate snacks.

Yan Xin couldn't help but said to her: "It's not good to eat too many snacks. Girls should pay attention to maintaining their body shape and not getting fat."

Bai Xiaoling laughed in surprise: "How can there be so many snacks for me to get fat? That is to say, you came back and brought food. Usually I don't have money to buy snacks. Now my mother gives me a little money, and all the money is eaten.

I used it to recharge my phone bill."

With mobile phones, mobile phones are a fixed consumption item.

Although her monthly mobile phone consumption is only a few dozen yuan, her monthly pocket money is only a few dozen yuan.

In order to support this mobile phone, she became penniless.

Yan Xin also laughed: "It's so pitiful! But it doesn't matter. When this matter with them is over, you can go to work in the capital. By then, you will earn more than the two of them.

Spend as much as you want."

Bai Xiaoling held a lollipop in her mouth, her eyes filled with resentment:

"How can I earn as much as I want and spend as much as I can? Before I even went out to look for a job, my mother told me that she wanted me to transfer half of my salary to her."

"Why?" Yan Xin was surprised.

"She said I couldn't save money and she wanted to save it for me to use as a dowry later." Bai Xiaoling said depressedly, "Brother, you said I'm pretty, but do I have to pay a dowry at home before I can get married?

?Obviously they are just looking for an excuse to steal my hard-earned money! Huh, my daughter is so beautiful, the bride price can make her a fortune, and she is targeting my salary. I think she is more exploitative than a capitalist."

Here, a daughter is not married without a dowry, but generally speaking, the dowry is just a few quilts.

On the contrary, the bride price is quite high.

Based on the current economic level, it takes about ten years for a family to save a daughter-in-law - this is the average level.

Those whose families are in difficulty may not be able to save enough money to marry a wife in twenty years.

Either stay single, or marry a woman with flaws or a divorced woman. Anyway, she has to be the kind that is unsalable in the marriage market.

However, when a wealthy family marries their daughter, they will still pay a relatively generous dowry, which can be equal to the bride price given by the man, and they will not keep the groom's bride price as their own.

This is of course more respectable, but this kind of respect is something only wealthy people can have.

Many poor families who have raised daughters rely on marrying off their daughters to improve their family's conditions, or to save money for their sons' bride price.

If there are more wealthy families living in the town, it will be more respectable.

But in rural areas, most people are still not decent. The dowry is just a few quilts, and usually it is made with money given by the groom’s family, so there is no need to prepare it yourself.

No wonder Bai Xiaoling didn't believe it.

However, Yan Xin did not believe that Wu Xiuhong wanted to embezzle her money and said with a smile: "Your mother said so..."

Bai Xiaoling glanced at him: "Brother, it's our mother."

"Well, our mother," Yan Xin said, "for our mother to say such a thing, she must have planned to do this. Think about it, she has worked so hard for you to study and raised you so big all these years."

, isn’t it all for you? If I were as selfish as you said and just after your money, there would be no need to work so hard these years.”

Bai Xiaoling pouted: "You do speak up for her."

"My dad also treated me like that, so I can understand that if you are really an irresponsible parent, you are not like that." Yan Xin said.

There is a ready-made example, that is Feng Xi’s parents.

That is really turning my daughter into a cash cow.

However, this example cannot be cited to Bai Xiaoling, because now Feng Chen is not dead and has become the boss of a company. Feng Xi has also become a talented woman from Peking University who started her own business. The Feng family's parents do not have a stage to show such faces.

Bai Xiaoling didn't know how her mother treated her, but she just felt a little unhappy thinking about having to pay half of her salary after going to work.

He said depressedly: "I hope that's the case, otherwise my hard-earned money..."

As he spoke, his face became bitter.

But she didn't plan to not pay half of her salary.

Yan Xin smiled and said: "Don't worry about this. When the time comes... well, if our mother can't come up with the dowry, I, as your brother, will give it to you."

Bai Xiaoling finally became happy and said: "Brother, you are really good."

His face suddenly turned red and he said again: "Brother, you are such a good person. If any woman can marry you, it will really be a tribute to her ancestors."

Yan Xin smiled: "No, I'm just an ordinary person."

Thinking: "She doesn't know that I am in two different situations. This shouldn't be a mockery of me."

But I have been a scumbag and received such excessive praise, and I still feel a little bit ashamed of my moral incompetence.

Then I thought: "Just say me, why are you blushing?"

Thinking about it this way, I felt a little uneasy.

It's dangerous to stay in the bedroom with Bai Xiaoling, he knows it.

But I didn't expect that sitting in the living room on the first floor also smelled a little dangerous.

He took out his mobile phone and said: "I don't know if my parents have bought groceries. It won't be easy for them to come back. How about I call and ask them where they are now, and I will drive to pick them up."

"No need," Bai Xiaoling said, "They both went there on bicycles. It's only a few miles away, and it doesn't take too long to get back. You don't need to drive there."

"Then let me make a call and ask where they are now?" Yan Xin said.

"It's not necessary," Bai Xiaoling still shook her head, "What if they are on their way back now, riding their bicycles, and suddenly they feel your phone call and frighten them so much that they fall down?"

Yan Xin thought about the scene for a while, and finally put down the phone: "You are right, then I won't make any calls."

But he still felt that it was not good to sit alone in the living room with Bai Xiaoling, so he stood up and said to Bai Xiaoling:

"It's a rare occasion when I come back and I go out for a walk. If my parents come back, tell them that I went out to play."

Bai Xiaoling also stood up: "Let's go for a walk together. I'm bored staying at home."

Yan Xin felt depressed: "But I just don't want to be with you."

But he couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he could only smile and said: "Then let's go out for a walk."

I thought to myself: "No matter what, it's better to be outside than inside. She is always embarrassed to do some excessive actions outside, right?"

The two of them went out. Bai Xiaoling locked the door. When she saw the car parked on the side, she rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Brother, it's rare that you drive back this time. How about we go for a drive?"

Yan Xin had no idea of ​​driving with her, and shook his head: "Forget it today, I'm quite tired from driving all the way here, so I don't want to drive for the moment. My parents are going to get the certificate tomorrow, and I'll take you to the county town to play.

Just play.”

Bai Xiaoling felt depressed: "But I just want to be with you."

But there was still a smile on his face: "Okay, brother."
