"Xingxing, please understand me. My parents are both ordinary farmers. It's not easy to save some money to buy a house. You don't have to care about whose name to write on the real estate certificate. When we get married, won't we live in the house?"
Qiao Xing sat on the bench in the park and listened to Lin Yu's endless persuasion. She didn't say a word.
He has been talking with Lin Yu for two years. Lin Yu is 29 years old this year. His parents are anxious about his marriage, so they have been discussing marriage during this period.
It's just that I didn't expect that everything was going well before, but when it came to the house and the dowry, the contradiction came out.
"Star..."
Qiao Xing raised his head and interrupted him, "Lin Yu, I also paid 200,000 yuan for the house. Why do you write your father's name? Even if you write your name, it's okay. Are you already planning a divorce before you get married?"
Lin Yu was stunned. He hurriedly explained, "How can you think so? What does it matter who wrote the name of the house? As long as we live a good life, buying a house will empty half of their life's home. They just want peace of mind. Why do you quarrel with the elderly?"
Qiao Xing felt a little funny. She looked at Lin Yu and said, "They are relieved. What about me? What do I count in your eyes? Your family only made 300,000 yuan in total, and I paid 200,000 yuan. Write their names. After marriage, there is also a mortgage. Will they pay it back?"
"No, you always compare with them. Can it be the same? Besides, they don't have the money to pay off the mortgage. You don't have to worry about the mortgage. I'll pay it off. You can rest assured to take care of your parents and take good care of your parents. "Does the husband teach the son or treat you as a cow and a horse? Lin Yu, why didn't I find out that you are such a calculating person? You said that your family bought a house and didn't have money to give a dowry. I asked you to give 18,000 yuan. You said that 18,000 yuan wanted your whole family's life, and you bargained for 8,000 yuan. For the sake of our two-year relationship, I also put up with it.
"The down payment of the house is poor. I used all my savings to buy a house. Now you have to write your father's name on the property certificate. They still have to move in and live together, so I quit my job to take care of them at home."
Speaking of this, Qiao Xing couldn't help but mock himself at the corners of his mouth, "I found a full-time nanny for myself with all my family, right?"
She felt that she was really blind at the beginning, because Lin Yu was a man worth relying on because of Lin Yu's little kindness to him.
Now she knows that time is the least valuable cost for Lin Yu. He has a lot of time to study her preferences, pay attention to all her details, and be considerate of her to please her.
However, when it involved interests, he was exposed his original form. Qiao Xing's heart was like being stabbed by a needle, and the dense pain made her a little out of breath.
Coming out of his house, her mind was confused. At this moment, when the wind blew, she finally woke up.
Lin Yu was still trying his best to persuade him. He held Qiao Xing's hand and said, "Xingxing, don't say that. We will get better and better. I will be promoted soon. In the future, I will earn money to support you. I like you. I really want to marry you. I have been working hard for you."
Qiao Xing broke free from his hand and stood up suddenly. "Don't I really want to marry you?"
"Then you still..."
Before Lin Yu finished speaking, Qiao Xing added, "But it's not now. We won't get married, and we won't have a future. Don't say anything for me. Wouldn't you work hard without me? Won't you make money?"
Qiao Xing took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and transferred it to Lin Yu's 8,000 yuan. "The dowry money will be returned to you, and the 200,000 yuan for the house will be returned to me. Let's break up."
Lin Yu was stunned. He looked at Qiao Xing in astonishment, "Are you serious? We have been in a relationship for two years, and you want to break up with me just because of the house? How did you become so material now!"
His words stabbed Qiao Xing's heart again. She held back her tears and said word by word, "Yes, I am the material. I will give you a month to return the money to me, or we will meet in court."
Qiao Xing suppressed the emotions in her heart, turned around and left. She didn't want to stay with Lin Yu for a second.
Lin Yu caught up with her, took her arm and didn't let her go. "The house has been bought. Where should I go to find money for you? Don't do this, okay?"
"It's your business. You can solve it yourself. We've broken up now." Qiao Xing shook him off again and walked out of the park without turning back.
Lin Yu didn't give up to catch up with her again. Qiao Xing directly stopped a taxi on the roadside and left him behind.
Lin Yu looked at the taxi where she was going far away, and the warm on his face disappeared in an instant, and his face was full of anger, which made his facial features a little ferocious.
He really didn't want Qiao Xing. It's not that he loved her much, but that she was cheap. Other women's dowry was hundreds of thousands of yuan. Only she didn't want the dowry, and she was willing to take out the money to buy him a house.
She is also beautiful, a few years younger than him, and does not waste money. Where can such a woman be found now?
If Qiao Xing knew what he was thinking now, he would only be more disappointed, but everything their family has done so far is enough to discourage Qiao Xing.
Half of the 200,000 yuan was given to her by her grandmother, and the other 100,000 yuan was saved by her thrift in the past few years. Unexpectedly, when she was planning for the future wholeheartedly, Lin Yu was racking his brains to calculate her.
Qiao Xing closed his eyes and stopped thinking about those messy things.
She bought some fruit on her way home to visit Grandpa Qin next door.
Grandpa Qin is an old man living alone, and his children are all abroad. In the past, when his grandmother was still alive, he often came to Qiao Xing's house to play. He took any good things from her house, which was also very good to Qiao Xing.
Now that grandma is not here, the old man basically didn't come out much. Qiao Xing went to see him every now and then.
When Qiao Xing arrived, she got out of the car with the fruit and went straight to Grandpa Qin's house.
This neighbourhood is an old neighbourhood. There is no elevator, and the houses are only six floors. Grandpa Qin's house lives on the second floor.
She knocked on the door and waited for more than a minute. Grandpa Qin opened the door. When he saw that it was Qiao Xing, he immediately smiled and opened the door.
"The stars are coming?" The old man gave way to Qiao Xing with a crutch, "Come in quickly."
Qiao Xing nodded with a smile, "A few days ago, you said that the water pipe of the bathroom at home was leaking. I happen to be free today. Let's take a look for you."
She walked into the room, closed the door, and heard the sound of water rattling in the bathroom. Is the water leakage so serious?
But after a few seconds, the sound of water stopped again.
But what Qiao Xing paid more attention to was that there was also a girl in her twenties, with curly hair, exquisite makeup, and very fashionable.
"Grandpa Qin, do you have a guest?" Qiao Xing was not very awkward and continued to walk in.
Grandpa Qin turned around and was about to speak, but the woman spoke first, "I'm leaving right away, Uncle Qin. In order not to waste our time, I'll say it directly."
She looked around the house with contempt on her face, "Your grandson doesn't even have a house. Will a big family get married in such a broken place in the future? If I want to marry him, unless I live in a house with four bedrooms and one living room in the city centre, plus a dowry of 880,000 yuan, if we can do this, we'll talk about it later.
She spoke so bluntly that Grandpa Qin's face was not very good.
"Xiao Wu..."
Before Grandpa Qin finished speaking, another magnetic voice came from the bathroom, "Miss Wu, you may have misunderstood. It seems that I haven't said that I will marry you yet."
