Chapter 706: Marry Your Daughter or Sell Your Daughter

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

On the 20th of the first month, Fan Yumeng’s parents met with Ji Zi’ang’s family.

Of course, Ji Yuanyuan was not included in the family.

She was already out of confinement and had wanted to go.

After all, it was Ji Zi’ang’s big day. As his younger sister, it was a pity that she did not appear.

However, to be on the safe side, Cheng Shuqin planned to let her stay in confinement until the day school started.

Moreover, it was winter now. If she went out right after the confinement period, she would suffer in the future if she got caught in the wind.

Ji Yuanyuan had no choice but to stay at home obediently.

Fortunately, this was only a meeting between their parents. It would be fine as long as she had the opportunity to be present at the engagement and wedding in the future.

Ji Yuanyuan had a good impression of his second sister-in-law, so she was already thinking about their marriage.

Fan Yumeng had a younger brother who came with her and looked about eighteen or nineteen years old.

“Is this Yumeng’s brother? Did you apply for leave from school today?” Zhang Kun asked as he chatted with the other party.

Father Fan was a little thin and not very tall. He looked a little shrewd.

He glanced at his son, “He’s also in B City. He’s at B City’s University of Science and Technology. He doesn’t have classes this afternoon.”

Zhang Kun replied politely, “It’s pretty good. The University of Science and Technology is not bad.”

“It’s not bad,” said Father Fan with a smile. “It’s a little better than Yumeng’s university.”

As he spoke, he even glanced at Ji Zi’ang.

Zhang Kun’s smile froze.

He understood. This meant the Fan family’s son was more capable than Ji Zi’ang.

They all knew that Fan Yumeng and Ji Zi’ang were in the same school.

Although he understood, Zhang Kun did not retaliate.

After a young man got married, he had less contact with his parents.

He was spending his days with Fan Yumeng, not his father-in-law.

It was fine as long as it looked passable on the surface.

Fan Yumeng also understood. She tugged at her father’s sleeve awkwardly and said in a low voice, “Dad, why are you saying this?”

Father Fan chuckled. “I’m just happy to see Zi’ang’s parents, so I can’t help but say a few more words.”

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Li Xu quickly looked at Fan Yumeng’s mother and said, “I like Yumeng a lot. I met her once at school, and I thought we were fated to meet.”

Fan Yumeng’s mother was gentle as she praised Ji Zi’ang to Li Xu.

The atmosphere quickly calmed down. Ji Zixuan and Huang Weiwei were also there. The two of them sat quietly at the side and only answered when asked. After all, it was not their home ground, so it was better for them to speak less. Otherwise, it would be bad if he left a bad impression on his future parents-in-law.

After the dishes were served, a few of them became a little more familiar with each other. Only then did the topic turn to their marriage.

“If you have any requests, feel free to ask. His father and I will try our best to do what we can. We will definitely hold the engagement party and wedding of the two children in a grand manner. We will never hold the children back.” Li Xu expressed.

“We’re not from the same place. There must be differences in customs…” Mother Fan hesitated.

Li Xu understood what she meant and immediately said, “It doesn’t matter. As for the betrothal gifts, it’s no problem to do it according to your customs.” When Father Fan heard this, he immediately slammed his chopsticks on the table, “It’s like this. Generally speaking, betrothal gifts are based on the rules of the woman. Since you guys have no objections, then let’s do as we say. We don’t want much. A million will do.”

When Li Xu and Zhang Kun heard this, they were stunned.

Although they could afford a million and were willing to pay, the Fan family’s tone…

Furthermore, they did not give that much when they married Huang Weiwei.

However, it was easy to do. He could just secretly make up for it secretly.

Li Xu quickly recovered and said with a smile, “No problem.”

Ji Zi’ang frowned and turned to look at Fan Yumeng.

Fan Yumeng lowered her head and said nothing.

Father Fan and Mother Fan looked at each other and said, “In addition, the wedding house must be bought in the Second Ring Road and have our Yumeng’s name on it.”

The smiles on Li Xu and Zhang Kun’s faces were a little hard to maintain. The two of them did not say anything.

Father Fan continued to talk to himself, “And the car. Although Zi’ang can’t drive now, our Yumeng can. With a car, sending Zi’ang out in the future would be convenient.”

Ji Zi’ang had a driver’s license, but after racing for a long time, he would sometimes feel dizzy on the road.

Sometimes, he would forget he was on the road and think he was on the field.

Therefore, for safety reasons, he did not drive.

He either took a taxi or asked his family to pick him up.

“This…” Li Xu forced a smile. “Actually, we prepared the wedding house for Zi’ang a few years ago. He can move in after renovating it. As for the car, he definitely had to buy it.”

“That won’t do. The house is pre-marital and has nothing to do with our Yumeng. You have to buy one and put it under Yumeng’s name.” Father Fan retorted.

Seeing this, Mother Fan tugged at Father Fan’s sleeve, “Don’t be so rude.”

Then, he looked at Li Xu and said gently, “Zi’ang’s Mother, I’m really sorry. His words are not pleasant to the ears. Please don’t lower yourself to his level.” Li Xu’s lips twitched, but she didn’t say anything.

“But we only have one daughter, Yumeng. Of course, we want her to live a better life.”

Other than that, she didn’t say anything else.

Ji Zi’ang and Fan Yumeng had made a hasty decision, so they did not discuss the betrothal gift.

Ji Zi’ang thought he could just let the parents discuss it directly.

Even if they wanted more, how much could it be?

At most, he would pay for the extra money himself so that his eldest brother and sister-in-law would not feel uncomfortable.

He didn’t expect the Fan family to be so bold as to ask for a million yuan.

Not only that, but he also wanted to buy a house for Fan Yumeng.

A house in the Second Ring Road? Did the Fan family know how much a house in the Second Ring Road was worth?

“Fan Yumeng, is this your idea or your family’s idea?” Ji Zi’ang asked directly.

Fan Yumeng looked up with tears in her eyes.

“Ji Zi’ang, what’s with your attitude?” Father Fan panicked.

Li Xu and Zhang Kun quickly stood up to smooth things over, “Zi’ang, speak properly.”

Father Fan pointed the spearhead at Li Xu and Zhang Kun, “Is this how you educate your son? You’re not even married yet, and you dare to speak to my daughter like this?”

“We’re only talking about betrothal gifts. What about dowry?” With his bad temper, how could he tolerate others speaking to his parents like that? He directly rebuked Father Fan.

Father Fan was stunned for a moment before replying, “Only a good-for-nothing man would think about his wife’s dowry.”

Did this mean that there was no dowry?

“Are you marrying off your daughter or selling her?” Ji Zi’ang sneered..
