Chapter 1801: Betrothed as a wife, running as a concubine

"Is uncle also so vulgar?"

Su Xuewen secretly muttered.

Chen Guanlou heard it, and then laughed angrily, "If you were as rich as me, you could marry a hundred bitter girls. Without that strength, don't pull that true love is invincible set. Go ask that woman, how much sincere heart she has for you. If you don't have a decent job, don't have money, and your family doesn't support it, guess if she will stick to you and not marry you."

"You have prejudice against her. You haven't even seen her, don't know how good she is!" Su Xuewen moved his heart for the first time in his life, it was impossible for a few words to make him give up.

Refutation, struggle, firmness, were all expected.

The world will never lack infatuated men and resentful women.

"How good she is, so what? Could it be that because she is good, it can deny the conclusion that marrying her is equivalent to marrying her whole family?" Chen Guanlou smiled contemptuously, he didn't mock love, love is beautiful.

He just mocked marriage, a place of chicken feathers.

He even admired the courage and confidence of that girl, clear goals, quick actions, and took Su Xuewen down in two or three moves.

It's just that big sister Chen Xiaolan will definitely be angry to death.

As a responsible younger brother, a younger brother who cares about his elder sister, and an uncle who cares about his nephew, he cannot choose to support this relationship just because love is beautiful.

Marriage is not about talking about love, marriage is firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea. Every day when you open your eyes, it is money, money, money!

Su Xuewen's income is enough to support his own small family. However, if he also has to support the woman's whole family, he will be crushed by life, and the two will become resentful couples.

He doesn't want his young and handsome nephew to live into a little old man who is busy with life and old before his time because of marriage.

"Marrying her is equivalent to marrying her whole family, these are all uncle's conjectures." Su Xuewen whispered in refutation.

Chen Guanlou smiled softly, "You can ask her face to face, ask what needs to be prepared to marry her, how much betrothal gift? Is it okay not to care about the mother's family after marriage?"

"I..."

"If she says it's okay, it's okay not to care about the mother's family after marriage, you let her write a note. As long as she is willing to write a note, limiting how much festival gift to give to the mother's family in a year, I will find a way to help you persuade your mother. Can it be done?"

Chen Guanlou didn't bother to argue and reason. For men and women in love, all good words of persuasion are not listened to, and they are all seeing that they are not good.

It is better to set conditions directly.

Su Xuewen nodded solemnly, "It's a deal!"

Chen Guanlou nodded with a smile, "I look forward to you, work hard. By the way, the limited festival gift cannot exceed ten taels of silver a year." Finally, he added another sentence.

For the city-civilian people in the capital, a festival gift of ten taels of silver can be called generous! Definitely can be taken out.

In terms of Su Xuewen's income, ten taels can definitely be called generous.

Su Xuewen agreed, he was full of confidence.

Just after eating, he ran away in a hurry, unable to wait to work hard for the future happy life of the two.

Chen Guanlou also wanted to know, in order to marry Su Xuewen, to what extent the woman could do. By the way, he arranged for someone to investigate the woman's specific situation.

Chen Xiaolan, as a mother, was very sharp. She was already suspecting whether her good big son had any situation outside.

She didn't ask directly, so she asked Chen Guanlou to help inquire.

Chen Guanlou signaled her not to be impatient, "If there is a situation, I will definitely tell you."

As an uncle, he was very righteous and did not betray his big nephew's emotional life.

If he revealed even one word, with Chen Xiaolan's violent temper, she might directly beat Su Xuewen, and then directly find the woman's family, picking and choosing. It looked like a vicious mother-in-law who hated poverty and loved wealth.

He couldn't bear to let his big sister be a villain.

Big sister still looks best when she is gentle, kind, and smiling.

He will handle this matter!

Several days passed, and there was no movement on Su Xuewen's side. The investigation had results.

Just as Su Xuewen said, crippled father, sick mother, younger siblings waiting to be fed. What he didn't say was that this bitter girl had been betrothed, and the man's side had retired because they disliked her family's heavy burden and couldn't get rid of the mother's family.

The bitter girl was eighteen years old, and her mother did some sewing and washing to earn some pocket money. She herself set up a small stall, selling some small things. Occasionally, she also helped big families to earn money.

Looks delicate, little beauty!

Because the family burden was heavy, the marriage had no place to land.

Neighbors' evaluation of her, capable, filial, fierce, smart, and spicy personality. A girl, carrying a family, can't be spicy. Personal conditions are medium, family conditions are the worst.

Chen Guanlou was not in a hurry, the person who should be in a hurry was Su Xuewen. The relationship between the two had not been clear for a day, so there was no way to get married.

Betrothed as a wife, running as a concubine.

The two dared not report to their parents and got married privately. Legally, the bitter girl could only count as a concubine. Because there was no marriage certificate! After all, both parents were alive, and they lived quite close, all in the capital.

It was not thousands of miles away.

Far away, too late, it could be self-married. But, before and after the event, they would also write to their parents to explain the situation. Instead of sneaking around.

Su Xuewen was indeed very anxious.

After talking to the bitter girl several times, finally the two decided to face uncle Chen Guanlou together and fight for the other party's support together.

Met at a teahouse, cheap!

Chen Guanlou arrived on time, and the little couple had been waiting for a long time.

Su Xuewen greeted him like a dog, with a flattering and fawning face.

"Uncle, let me introduce, this is Dongxue, Huang Dongxue. Dongxue, this is my uncle."

"Miss Huang, nice to meet you!"

Chen Guanlou sat opposite them, looking at Huang Dongxue directly and openly.

Huang Dongxue was uneasy in her heart, subconsciously lowering her head, not daring to face his gaze directly.

Chen Guanlou nodded secretly, looks upright, five features beautiful, just a bit dark, it is normal for people who work all year round to be a bit dark. Raise it, raise it white, it should be quite good-looking.

No wonder Su Xuewen was moved.

"You have discussed this, is there a result?" Chen Guanlou picked up the teacup and asked casually.

The little couple looked at each other, and Su Xuewen said, "Her family burden is heavy, I want to give a little more betrothal gift."

"How much is a little more?"

"Um... one hundred taels." Su Xuewen was very guilty, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible. Obviously, he himself knew that this betrothal gift was very excessive.

Small families in the capital marry wives and marry daughters, there is no such price!

Huang Dongxue buried her head even more, not daring to look.

Two guilty people actually offered a betrothal gift of one hundred taels.

Chen Guanlou laughed immediately upon hearing this, "Su Xuewen, your monthly salary is two taels of silver, excluding expenses, you can save ten taels of silver a year, which is considered extremely frugal. Even if you add extra income, in a year, you can't save one hundred taels.

Miss Huang, what kind of family are you, opening your mouth to want his two years of savings. This is just a betrothal gift, the wedding banquet has to be paid separately. After marriage, he has to bear part of your family's expenses. May I ask, are you marrying a person, or selling yourself? Selling yourself requires the attitude of selling yourself!"

These words were completely unsparing, equivalent to tearing the girl's face off and throwing it on the ground, and also stepping on it hard twice.

Although Huang Dongxue's skin was dark, it could be seen that she was currently unable to face herself, both angry and ashamed and unwilling to admit defeat. Her body was tense, and she had been holding on hard.

Su Xuewen was anxious and distressed, "Uncle, you are too much." ===== CHAPTER 1802 =====
