Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 463 Betrothal Gift
  At this time, An's father turned his head and glared at Xu Xiuwen fiercely.

Xu Xiuwen was not afraid either.

He said calmly: "You are Shishi's father. I don't want to conflict with you, so I advise you not to mess around."

Father An looked Xu Xiuwen up and down with his hooked eyes.

At last.

He suddenly snorted coldly.

Then he got up and walked to the backyard.

Xu Xiuwen got out of the way and followed An's father to the backyard.

An Shishi did not follow Xu Xiuwen into the main room.

Instead, he ran to the backyard and informed his mother.

So Liu Ruo also knew that Xu Xiuwen was going to let An's father out.

She looked a little nervous and uneasy.

At this time.

Father An came to the door of the kitchen house.

He shouted to the inside: "I'm starving to death, hurry up and get me something to eat."

Liu Ruo immediately asked: "There is only a little rice noodles left, do you want to eat it?"

"Get it over here quickly."

After An's father finished speaking, he turned and returned to the front room.

Xu Xiuwen saw that he didn't lose his temper anymore and even started to hit people.

He also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he is An Shishi's father.

Xu Xiuwen actually didn't want to make the relationship too tense.

As for last night?

On the one hand, it is because the situation is forcing us to do it.

On the other hand, it's because he actually doesn't like this kind of man who loves to take out his wife and children.

But Xu Xiuwen was very calm at this time.

The mother and daughter of the An family were quite surprised to see that An's father did not get angry.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Liu Ruo brought a bowl of leftover rice noodles to the front room.

An Shishi and An Shuishui didn't want to see their father, and the other was a little afraid of him, so they both stayed in the backyard and did not go to the front room.

Xu Xiuwen is a man who can't avoid An's father.

So he came to the front room too.

After An's father saw him, he acted as if he hadn't seen him.

Eating rice noodles in silence.

Liu Ruo also stayed in the front room and did not return to the backyard.

Under the gaze of two people.

Father An finally finished the rice noodles.

He put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and then suddenly turned to Xu Xiuwen and said, "Don't think that you can marry Shishi just because she brought you back. I tell you, no one can marry her without my consent." Leave my daughter."

Xu Xiuwen thought to himself: An Shishi doesn't listen to you at all, what you say is useless.

But she said: "Auntie has agreed to marry Shishi to me."

Hearing this, Father An turned his head and glanced at Liu Ruo who was standing aside, and said coldly: "What she said means nothing. This is my house. Without my consent, no one's words count."

Xu Xiuwen looked at An's father's expression.

I vaguely guessed that he didn't seem to be just for opposition.

It's more like having some kind of purpose.

So Xu Xiuwen asked: "Then why did my uncle agree to marry Shishi to me?"

Father An looked him up and down again and asked a question he didn't want to do, "Looking at you, your family is rich?"

"Just so so." Xu Xiuwen had already guessed what he was thinking.

An's father continued: "It's not impossible to marry my daughter. You must give me the bride price."

I heard An's father asking for the bride price.

Xu Xiuwen looked calm.

This kind of traditional custom can be found everywhere.

He nodded and asked, "How much do you plan to ask for as a gift?"

"10! Not even a penny less."

I heard 10 yuan.

Xu Xiuwen didn't think it was too much.

He's totally fine with that.

He was about to agree.

Suddenly An Shishi ran in from the back door.

As soon as she came in, she said eagerly: "Don't agree to him, I am willing to marry you without a cent of bride price."

Xu Xiuwen was a little surprised when he saw An Shishi rushing out suddenly.

It seems that she was hiding at the back door just now and eavesdropping.

Xu Xiuwen noticed that An's father looked ugly because of An Shishi's words.

An's father slammed the table and yelled at An Shishi: "I am your father. I worked hard to raise you. If I say yes, you will have it. Without my consent, you can't marry anyone."

An Shishi responded unceremoniously: "I'm going to marry Xu Xiuwen, do you care? At worst, I won't come back."

An's father became even more angry when he heard this.

He turned to look at Liu Ruo, who was silent at the side, and said, "Look at the good daughter you have raised. I have worked hard to raise her, but now she has her elbows bent outwards, and she plans to ignore me."

Liu Ruo looked embarrassed when he heard this.

When An's father saw this, he didn't say anything to Liu Ruo.

He sneered, looked at An Shishi and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't come back. I can go to your school and find your teacher and principal. The man you found came to my house and beat me. I'll see how your school handles it. Don't You think you can threaten me if you don’t come back, but I’m telling you, I have plenty of ways to get you.”

When An Shishi heard this, she became anxious.

If An's father really went to school to cause trouble.

Let’s not talk about how the school teacher will handle it or whether he will believe it.

Just the comments and opinions of the students.

It was far from what she could accept.

An Shishi suddenly became mute.

When Xu Xiuwen saw the father and daughter arguing like this, he knew he couldn't listen any more, and hurriedly said: "Shishi, don't worry, the bride price should be given. If I can marry you, it doesn't matter how much money I spend."

"Husband~"

An Shishi was very moved.

Even if my parents are in front of me.

An Shishi still couldn't hold back and directly called her an affectionate name.

Xu Xiuwen touched her head and smiled tenderly.

Then he turned to look at Father An and said, "Uncle, the gift money is not a problem. I can give you 10 yuan."

"That's pretty much it." Father An's expression softened.

It's just that his face and hooked eyes still look fierce even if it softens.

It's very uncomfortable to watch.

An Shishi suddenly said: "I can give you a gift, but 10 yuan is too much. No one in our village wants such a colorful gift. I can only pay 5000 yuan at most."

"5000 won't do! No less than 10 yuan."

"Mom, look at him, is he selling his daughter or marrying her? Why should he ask Xu Xiuwen for 10 yuan as a gift? Isn't he bullying others?!"

Liu Ruo finally spoke, "10 is a bit much."

"As much as you want, not much at all. If he wants to marry my daughter, just pay for it. If he can't afford it, don't marry him. If someone else's daughter is cheap, marry someone else's daughter!"

Liu Ruo and An Shishi were both speechless and helpless by An's father's overbearing attitude.

An Shishi was even more furious.

The reason why she strongly opposes bride price.

The main reason is.

She was worried that Xu Xiuwen would look down on her in the future because her father asked for a gift of 10 yuan.

"It's okay, Shishi. I can still afford 10. It's whatever uncle says."

"Then you bring the money." An's father was quite satisfied with his attitude after hearing this.

Move forward one day.

An's father had an old sweetheart in the town.

He usually lives in his good friend's home in the town.

When I have nothing to do, I play cards and gamble for money.

The days were extremely carefree.

As for where he got the money to live freely outside.

Part of it is money from an old sweetheart.

Part of it he got from home.

Every time at home, whether it was selling rice or making money from Liu Ruo's crafts.

Almost all the money is in his hands.

He will only go home and get money when he spends all the money he has on hand.

Liu Ruo was not willing to give money every time.

But they have been married for more than ten years.

He was already familiar with Liu Ruo. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to give money.

Just spank her a few times.

She will be more obedient than a rabbit.

He will obediently take out the money.

As for whether the life at home can be maintained.

He didn't care.

Father An has not been home for a long time.

He still had some money on hand that he had not spent.

Originally, I wasn’t going home in the short term.

But last night, he suddenly met an acquaintance from the village.

As soon as the other party came up, he congratulated him on finding a good son-in-law.

An's father didn't understand the situation at first.

After questioning, I found out that the eldest daughter had brought a man home.

And I know it from acquaintances.

The man the eldest daughter brought back also bought a lot of things for her.

Among them are tobacco and alcohol, which he likes very much.

I heard that cigarettes cost 45 a pack.

The wine is even better for a few hundred yuan a bottle.

Of course everything the daughter's man brings back belongs to him.

An Zhanjin felt that he had suffered a big loss.

So he abandoned his old friend and rushed home overnight in a hurry.

I originally thought that the new son-in-law would be very obedient and easy to manipulate when he saw his father-in-law.

As a result, the other party tied him up as soon as he came up.

This made An Zhanjin very angry all night last night.

At first, the gift money he planned to ask for was only ten to twenty thousand.

Just because he was irritated.

So he opened his mouth and asked for 10 yuan at once.

I was originally worried that the other party would think it was too much and would not be able to take it out or would be unwilling to give it.

As a result, the other party agreed readily.

This made him relax at the same time.

I couldn't help but feel good.

I don't care that much about being tied up by him all night last night.

"You can take money!" Xu Xiuwen said, "But I have a condition."

An Zhanjin found it very interesting.

He even negotiated terms with him.

He was also curious about what conditions Xu Xiuwen would put forward.

"Say it!"

"My condition is very simple. From now on, you are not allowed to touch the two sisters again."

An Zhanjin thought what his conditions were.

It turned out that he was just asked not to hit his daughter.

He said without hesitation: "Okay."

"Uncle, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"You can't hit Aunt Liu anymore."

Liu Ruo didn't expect Xu Xiuwen to say this.

She was surprised.

Even more inexplicably moved.

But this time An Zhanjin did not agree directly.

He sneered and said: "I can fight my woman as much as I want. Don't think you can take care of me because you have a few dirty dollars! If you keep talking nonsense, my daughter won't marry you!"

Xu Xiuwen was not deterred by his words.

"You don't agree? Then forget it, I won't give you any money."

As soon as these words came out, An Zhanjin was shocked and looked at him with wide eyes.

"What are you saying, you don't want my daughter?!"

An Shishi and Liu Ruo also looked at Xu Xiuwen nervously.

Xu Xiuwen took An Shishi's hand and squeezed it gently.

At the same time, he looked at An's father and said, "Of course, I mean, if you don't agree with my conditions, then I won't give you money, but I will still marry him. Don't even think about threatening me. I'm not afraid to tell you. I'm very familiar with the school leaders. Your tricks have no impact on me at all, and my mother is SZ. If you step into the school with your front foot, I can ask someone to get you in with my back foot. If you don't believe me, try it."

Hearing this, An Zhanjin frowned, his expression a bit ugly.

The front room fell silent for a moment.

No one spoke.

Half an hour passed.

An Zhanjin finally gave in.

He first turned to look at Liu Ruo and glared at her fiercely.

Then he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I agree."

"Don't fool me. If you dare to touch Aunt Liu when I know I'm not around, you won't get any money."

"What do you mean? Won't you pay me immediately?"

Xu Xiuwen shrugged and said, "I would like to give it, but how can I have such money now?"

"Are you kidding me?" An Zhan's head was throbbing with veins.

"That's not it."

"Then what do you mean?!"

"I didn't bring so much money when I came back this time. I'll give you 2 first, and I'll give you the rest when I come next time."

"No! It must be paid all at once! I can accompany you to the bank to withdraw money!" An Zhanjin had only one idea in his mind.

That means getting the money immediately.

Wait until he comes next time to pay the remaining money?

Who knows when he will come next?

Are you coming yet?

Maybe he is tired of playing with his daughter, regrets it, and is unwilling to give so much money again.

Where does he regret it?

And for some reasons, he didn't dare to really go to school to cause trouble.

Xu Xiuwen said calmly: "Even if I go to the bank today, I won't be able to withdraw it. Don't you know that you have to make an appointment in advance to withdraw so much money? So it's useless if you don't agree."

An Zhanjin has never withdrawn 10 yuan at a time.

How could he know this rule?

Looking at Xu Xiuwen's calm look.

I feel like what he said was not a lie.

An Zhanjin hesitated, not knowing what to do.

Xu Xiuwen seemed to know that Father An was worried.

He smiled and said: "I know what you are worried about. In my eyes, poetry is more important than ten million. So you don't have to worry about my regrets. As for when I will come next time, I will drive before school." Come back to pick up Shishi, and I will bring the money when the time comes, making sure you get every penny."

Xu Xiuwen finished speaking.

The three people in the room had different thoughts.

An Shishi on the side became more and more moved when she heard what Xu Xiuwen said.

Liu Ruo couldn't help but glance at An Shishi, feeling quite envious.

My daughter's life is really good.

Find such a good man.

Think again about yourself.

Liu Ruo was heartbroken.

At this time, Liu Ruo no longer cared about Xu Xiuwen having a girlfriend.

She recognized this son-in-law very much.

I heard Xu Xiuwen mention the number 10 million.

An Zhanjin sneered.

I just thought he was bragging and didn't take it seriously.

However, An Zhanjin was somewhat convinced by his words.

He hesitated and asked, "Are you lying to me?"

"If you're still worried, I can write a note. Anyway, Shishi is at home. If I don't bring money, you don't have to let her go."

After An Zhanjin hesitated for a moment, he finally agreed.

Xu Xiuwen first gave the last bit of cash to An Zhanjin
  Then An Zhanjin asked An Shishi to bring paper and pen.

Let Xu Xiuwen write a letter of guarantee in person.

Xu Xiuwen was quite happy and wrote down the receipt directly according to An Zhanjin's request and signed his name.

After getting the guarantee letter, An Zhanjin felt more relieved.

Xu Xiuwen reminded with a smile: "Uncle, I will say the ugly things first. If you attack Aunt Liu and Shishi again in the future, you won't get a penny of the remaining money."

"I understand, stop talking nonsense!"
