Vol 2 Chapter 340: , correction fee
Chapter 340
Su Xi did not feel any embarrassment about the discovery of their cohabitation.
In his words, this is his home after all, and it would be too difficult to keep his parents unaware, so he was mentally prepared when he stayed with me last night.
That's why Su Xi was so calm when we faced his parents in the restaurant.
Before I sat down, I said as before: "Uncle and aunt, good morning."
“Girl, do you still call us uncle and aunt?”
After speaking, Mother Su pursed her lips and smiled, looking particularly happy.
“Well, what should I call you?”
“Of course I call you dad, mom.”
Sure enough, this is the case again.
Mother Su has asked me so many times. If it weren’t for the fact that she was being too arrogant, I wouldn’t be able to change it even now.
“Can’t you make things difficult for others so early in the morning...”
Thinking that everyone was very familiar with it, I simply spoke out what was on my mind.
While she was feeling depressed, Su’s mother seemed to have realized something on her own. She nodded and said, “I understand. It’s probably because I still need money to change my words.”
As she said that, Mother Su handed a red envelope to me, and then Father Su also took out his share.
Looking at it, it looked like New Year’s money. I couldn’t help but worry, thinking, could this be money?
I couldn't help opening a small crack and saw that it was indeed...well, a bank card.
This means that there is quite a lot of money in it.
I couldn't help but glance at Su Xi in embarrassment.
When Su Xi realized this, she turned her face faster than me and said, "Mom, Dad, what are you doing? Not to mention that Hao Siyu doesn't despise this money now. Even if you give more, it's just for her and the other party." My insult is just to ask her to call you parents, can't you just wait and see who you are looking down on by buying her with money?"
Su's mother quickly waved her hands and explained: "You misunderstood, this is the money to change Hao Siyu's name to our parents..."
“You can’t even change your name to anything else!”
"This is a custom! Custom! Can you calm down and listen to me?" Mother Su shouted angrily, "Just like the wedding share money, betrothal gifts, betrothal gifts, and dowry, our family The customs here don’t care about that, but they attach great importance to the correction fee. This is not a lie. I have also received correction fees from my mother-in-law before. "
Su's father also said at this time: "This is really our family's custom. I'm sorry if I didn't explain it clearly and there was a misunderstanding, but it's not just our family."
Hearing this, Su Xi still asked doubtfully: "If that's the case, why did you give it to Hao Siyu at this time?"
"Usually this amount of money is given before getting married or engaged, and we have already prepared it, but there has never been a chance to give it." Mother Su sighed and said, "After all, no matter how much we expected it last time, it was just for outsiders. I’ve been watching the engagement ceremony, but this time I’m serious about it, and you two have already had sex.”
Just have sex...
I quickly said: "We haven't done anything yet, we just live in the same room..."
“Huh? Is it true or not? I think with your ability to control each other and how much you like each other, you shouldn’t be able to resist this kind of thing..."
When Su Xi heard this, she couldn't help but said angrily: "How many times have I told you, don't take care of this kind of thing, but in order to shut you up, I will tell you good news. I will go there immediately after the engagement ceremony with Hao Siyu." If you get married abroad, you can avoid the legal age of marriage in your country by waiting for it to be notarized after registering abroad. "
When Su's father heard this, he immediately slapped the table and praised, "Good son, as expected of you, you have done a great job in solving this matter."
Why do you say it as if Su Xi has accomplished something great?
And why don’t I remember agreeing to this?
I reminded Su Xi dejectedly: "I did promise to hold a rescheduled engagement ceremony, but I never promised you to get married in advance."
“…You were obviously very happy to get married early.”
“I didn’t think about the responsibilities that come with getting married at that time... Anyway, give me some time to think about it.”
I also knew that it was a bit excessive to make such a request at this time, but unexpectedly Su Xi sighed and said, "Okay, let's postpone this matter for now."
"Wait a minute!" Su's father said anxiously, "I just finished praising you, why don't you know that you should hold on now?"
“This kind of thing is none of your business.”
Su Xi refused to listen to Su’s father’s opinion without hesitation.
Seeing his cold expression, Su's father also felt that he had hit a nail on the head, and said nothing more after that.
Looking at the two red envelopes, I couldn't help but ask them: "By the way, how much money is there?"
"Not much. According to my family's custom, there are tens of thousands here as big as you are."
“…Both cards are like this?”
“It’s all.”
In other words, there are more than 400,000 in total?
“Isn’t it a bit much?”
I said in a cold sweat.
“It means thanking your parents for raising you for so many years, so it’s okay to be short of it.”
This seems to be really customary.
I had no choice but to thank them, but I still had trouble putting it away.
If I receive this money, do I really have to start changing my story?
Just when he was in a dilemma, Su Xi suddenly said: "Actually, you can keep the bank card first and change your words later."
"How can you accept it?" Su's mother suddenly defended as if she was about to burst into tears, "What's going on? We even paid her the money to change her story. Don't interfere in this matter." Okay?"
Su Xi had a helpless expression when she heard this, and looked at me as if asking what to do.
Actually, my resistance is no longer that strong...
I used to feel a lot of resistance at the beginning, entirely because I was just pretending to be Su Xi's girlfriend, so I didn't want the Su family to take advantage of me. Later, I got used to not using those titles for a while, and recently , actually just because I feel embarrassed.
However, it is no longer time for me to continue to be shy. Haven't I already made up my mind to be Su Xi's wife? Then you should start to recognize his parents as your own parents both mentally and formally.
"Then... listen, I shouted," at this point, I took a deep breath and then said, "Dad, Mom..."
“Well, that’s it, I’m really happy.” Mother Su said with an intoxicated expression on her face, as if she was drunk.
Su's father was so moved that he had to wipe away his tears, and then said to me: "This time I don't just let you call me twice. You will always call us that way from now on."
I nodded and said, "I know, I will change my mind later. I've already finished breakfast, so let's go back to the dormitory first."
“walk slowly.”
“Okay, bye uncle and auntie.”
As soon as I opened my mouth, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze to the extreme.
Wow, I just said I wanted to change my words but I made a mistake.
“Sorry...it didn’t count just now, dad, mom, goodbye.”
After I solemnly bowed and apologized, Su Xi and I left here and went back to the dormitory.
After wiping off the cold sweat, I sighed in the car and said, "Marriage is really not easy."
“Who says it’s not the case,” Su Xi laughed and reconsidered, “but I won’t regret it.”
"Tch, what do you regret? This is what you call getting what you want. If I hadn't realized that I could be very charming after being pursued by you, maybe I wouldn't have been so easy for you to win over. You just stole Go have fun."
I said mockingly to him in a joking tone.
Su Xi said depressingly: "Let's put it the other way around, right? Generally speaking, men like me are very popular. If you are so loyal to you, you will earn it."
“Am I not worthy of your loyalty to me? I have given you many opportunities to give up.”
Su Xi frowned, and after a while she said, "I'm really scared of you. I admit that I can't help you with this kind of thing. You are worthy. You are so worthy."
Consider him honest.
Although I say this, of course I feel happy in my heart.
After returning to school, I attended a class first, and then went to see Chen Li in the afternoon. I wanted to talk about what I had seen today, of course, mainly about my engagement ceremony.
As soon as she asked a question, she was interrupted by Chen Li and said, "Don't spoil it so early. I want to see with my own eyes how capable Su Xi is. Now you just need to hand over the invitation letter to me." Okay, I will see other things with my own eyes."
“Uh, invitation?”
“That’s right... You’re not going to say that you won’t give it to me this time, right?”
I didn’t give it to her last time. This time it was a real engagement party. If I didn’t give it to her again, I’m afraid Chen Li would really break up with me.
I shivered with fear when I thought of this, but I had nothing to give her at the moment.
"I promise I will definitely give it to you this time, but... we are not ready yet."
“You have decided on the venue and everything, but you haven’t even prepared the invitation letter?”
"After all, other things can be done quickly, but as for invitations, even if they are urgent, they can only be printed one by one... Is that so?"
My reasons are doubtful even to myself.
Hearing what I said, Chen Li sighed helplessly, and then told me: "There's really nothing I can do about you, okay, I'll wait a little longer, but we are about to hold an engagement banquet, and the venue has already The decision has been made, but I am not very satisfied with their tableware, food, and layout, so I plan to renovate it myself, so can you help contact Su Xi? "
I couldn’t help but asked in confusion: “Why do you ask him for such a thing?”
"Of course it's an order. Do we know anyone who has a brand that is more sophisticated and more reliable than Su's? Since it's an important ceremony, of course we have to order from him."
I have to say that I was quite happy to hear from an acquaintance that the Su family brand is so reputable.
In order to show friendship, I wanted Chen Li to guarantee: "Since you said so, let me take care of this matter. By the way, do you want Dou Yuhua to order from Su Xi in the future? If you say so, I can give it to you for free." ”
When Dou Yuhua heard my question, he immediately shook his head and said, "Let's forget it..."
“What, do you look down on my things?”
“It’s your family’s fault. You changed your mind so quickly.” Chen Li couldn’t help but mock me from the sidelines.
I want you to take care of me.
Dou Yuhua quickly denied it and said, "No, the Su family's products are indeed of top quality and reputable, but the price is also very expensive, and I can't afford it."
“Didn’t I tell you that you’re free?”
“…It’s too embarrassing for you to pay so much money. This favor is too big and I can’t bear it.”
Will it be expensive?
I don’t have a good idea, so I don’t know yet what the price would be that would make Dou Yuhua insist so much.
At this time, Chen Li calculated an account with me and said: "The Su family is really not cheap. The size of the ceremony I planned is about 200 people, and the cost should be more than 13 million. This is still It depends on whether the limited batch of materials can be obtained. If it is of ordinary scale, it should cost at least one to two million. "
“The scale of two hundred people is more than ten million? What about the scale of one thousand people? Isn’t it nearly sixty million?”
