Chapter 232 Sky-high price gift

Listening to Lin Fengying sighing, Si Chen frowned and asked, "What do Boyi think?" In matters of marriage, one still has to listen to the opinions of the parties involved.

Lin Fengying wondered: "Bo Yi likes Li Juan, and he wants to get married, but he can't afford the money to get married now. I have more than two hundred yuan on hand, which is not enough." The meaning behind the words is,

The eldest son took the initiative to help the second son.

Now that Tong Yao has opened a store in Licheng, her monthly income is at least more than a thousand yuan. I heard that she has opened another store in Kyoto, and her income must be more than that in Licheng.

As long as the eldest son is willing to help, Chen Jinlan's request is actually nothing.

Tong Yao, who was standing next to Si Chen, also heard the meaning of Lin Fengying's words. She thought Si Chen would agree immediately, but she didn't expect it. Si Chen just asked in a deep voice: "What does their family want?"

"The bride price is one hundred and one yuan, which means one in a hundred, and I also need a sewing machine, a watch, and a bicycle." Lin Fengying pursed her lips and said with some difficulty: "Their family also asked for a black and white TV set.

It's useless to blame me. If I had the ability, I wouldn't let Boyi worry about his marriage."

It sounds fine before, but I didn’t expect that I would also need a black and white TV. This is Lin Fengying’s reason for selling out just now. It costs 500 yuan to buy a black and white TV now. No one dares to get married in the countryside.

The lion opened his mouth like this.

Sewing machines, watches and bicycles usually satisfy both of them, and they are relatively high betrothal gifts. If the Zhang family asked for three items, they would have to pay an additional 100 yuan, and finally a black and white TV set. This was treating Si Chen and her like pigs.

Where is Zai?

Isn't this one of those often taken advantage of characters in TV dramas?

Chen Jinlan knew that Si Boyi couldn't get these things, so he planned to let them subsidize them. As long as he complied with this unreasonable request, he didn't know how many excessive things he would have to mention in the future.

Tong Yao immediately darkened her face and stared at Si Chen blankly. As long as Si Chen dared to agree to this matter, she would definitely never be done with Si Chen. She would not take advantage of him.

She didn't say she wouldn't help Si Boyi, she just wouldn't go so far as to let others think she was a fool and drain her blood.

After listening to Lin Fengying's words, Si Chen's face seemed to be stained with a layer of frost. He obviously understood the situation and said in a deep voice: "This request is unreasonable."

Hearing that her eldest son's tone was wrong, Lin Fengying quickly said: "I also know it's unreasonable, but I thought about it carefully. Our family doesn't have a house. Now it costs at least more than a thousand yuan to build three new tile-roofed houses. In total, they

It’s not too much to ask for.”

If the eldest son had no money, Lin Fengying would not force him, but knowing the monthly income of the eldest son's shop, she could marry her younger son a wife, and let those who looked down upon her younger son see that her younger son

Not only can he get a wife, but the bride price is also very high.

Besides, although these things were bought for Zhang Lijuan, in addition to the one hundred yuan gift, other things were also brought back for the use of the younger son and the couple, so it was not a loss.

Lin Fengying felt that her younger son was incompetent, and if her elder son helped her more, both families would have an easier time, and they would still have face in the village, which would be a happy thing for everyone.

Of course, if you want to return home, you still need your eldest son’s consent.

At this time, Lin Fengying was a little selfish. She did not realize that her so-called happiness was sacrificing the interests of her eldest son and the younger couple. She just felt that her eldest son had good conditions and could help her younger son marry a wife with one month's income, so she should take the initiative.

Help me with this.

Hearing what Lin Fengying meant, Si Chen pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry about this, I'll call Boyi."

When she heard that she was going to call her youngest son, Lin Fengying became a little anxious, "Xiao Chen, are you afraid that Yaoyao won't agree to help Boyi? If you are worried, I can talk to Yaoyao, and the money will be treated as ours

If I lend it to you, I will give you all the money from selling the grain."

Lin Fengying talked about this topic with her younger son a few days ago. As soon as the younger son heard that Zhang Lijuan wanted so many things, he immediately stopped talking. He couldn't afford this wife. He heard that she planned to ask her eldest son for help.

The reaction was huge, and I disagreed with it.

Why is it not the eldest brother's responsibility to marry his wife? We can't put all the pressure on him.

The younger son had a stubborn temper, and Lin Fengying couldn't explain it, so she thought of discussing the matter with her eldest son first. As long as the eldest son came forward, the younger son would definitely have no objection. The younger son had listened to his elder son's words since he was a child.

Now that she heard that her eldest son wanted to talk to her younger son about this matter, Lin Fengying could not calm down. Such a good daughter-in-law knew everything about her. If she missed it, where would she find him in the future?

"This matter has nothing to do with Yaoyao. I don't agree." Si Chen refused very decisively, "Don't worry about this matter. I will talk to Boyi on the phone. If there is nothing else, hang up now."

After saying that, he hung up the phone without giving Lin Fengying a chance to speak again.

Tong Yao on the side felt a little relieved when she saw Si Chen reject Lin Fengying's unreasonable request so decisively, but she still couldn't help but complain a few times.

"Mom, I have no objection to helping Boyi get married. After all, we also have the ability now, but Chen Jinlan is obviously a big talker. If we agree to this request, she will definitely have other demands for no reason. I

Don’t want to be taken advantage of.”

No matter how rich she is, she earned it by herself. She is free to spend it how she wants. She has been angry at not being able to spend money since she was young. Lin Fengying feels sorry for her youngest son who still has no wife. Tong Yao understands that, but

You can't just stare at your eldest son's house to suck blood.

Anyway, don’t even think about black and white TV, but other things can be discussed.

Seeing that Tong Yao's cheeks were bulging and she was obviously angry, Si Chen raised his hand and rubbed her hair, comforting her: "Don't worry, I won't agree to those unreasonable requests."

Seeing Si Chen standing on her side, Tong Yao felt a little more comfortable, "You should call Boyi first and see what he means!"

Si Chen nodded and dialed the store's phone number. Si Boyi was packing his things and planning to get off work. When the phone rang, his spirits suddenly became tense. Apart from Lin Fengying, only Si Chen and Tong Yao could make this call.

He was worried that it was Lin Fengying who came to persuade him again, so he answered the call with a dark face. When he heard Si Chen's voice on the other end of the phone, his expression instantly relaxed, "Brother."

"Yeah." Si Chen responded lightly and went straight to the topic, "I just called my mother and heard her talk about you and Lijuan. What are your thoughts now."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he answered the phone, his elder brother dropped a bomb on him. Si Boyi was a little ashamed. He felt that he was such an old man and shouldn't cause trouble to his elder brother.
