There are many difficulties in life, but the marriage threshold is the most difficult, especially the bride price. I don’t know when the betrothal gift has become a shadow that can’t be pulled away or escaped for young people’s free marriage. Uncle Qiang thinks how much bride gifts are received should depend on the economic conditions of both parties, especially the economic conditions of the man, rather than on the unilateral will of the woman.
Of course, Uncle Qiang does not agree with the practice of "naked marriage". The bride price must be required, but the amount of the bride price can be more flexible. If you only care about your own interests and completely ignore the difficulty of the other party, even if such a marriage can be finally achieved, I think it will completely change. You must know that other calculations that do not belong to love themselves are not considered true feelings. However, some people and some families do not understand this principle, so the consequences can only be borne by them.
Huang Jing relies on her beautiful face to pick up among one blind date after another. She is still not engaged, and she is 26 years old. At first, Huang Jing's parents were not in a hurry, but now they were in a hurry because Huang Jing's younger brother had a girlfriend, and the other party kept urging him to get married, but the customs in the countryside could not be broken, so they urged Huang Jing to find someone to get married quickly.
Under the urging of his parents, Huang Jing finally fell in love with one. The man is from the village next door. Strictly speaking, the two were classmates, but as they grew older, they had already changed. Compared with the previous blind dates, the man's conditions were not very good, but when his younger brother was waiting to get married, she could only choose to accept his fate. Less than a week after the two met, the man brought a matchmaker to propose marriage. The two sides argued over the bride price for a long time before the bride price was set at 100,000, and Huang Jing's parents required that the bride price be given at one time.
After the marriage was confirmed, the man's parents began to prepare for the gift of brides. As for Huang Jing's parents, they also began to prepare for the engagement of their son. However, Huang Jing's sister-in-law asked for a bride price of 200,000 yuan, and there was no room for bargaining. The other party directly spoke: "If you don't hurry up and get enough bride price of 200,000 yuan, this marriage will be completely ruined." In this situation, Huang Jing's parents put their ideas on Huang Jing's in-laws' house.
They said to Huang Jing earnestly: "Daughter, you have seen it too. If we don't get a 200,000 yuan bride price, your brother's marriage will be ruined. If he can't get a wife in the future, how can we live? You are the sister and daughter. You can't watch your brother be a bachelor." At the begging of his parents, Huang Jing made up his mind and immediately called her boyfriend's phone. On the phone, Huang Jing's tone was very firm. She said: "You can only send 200,000 yuan bride price in 7 days. My brother is waiting for engagement."
Hearing this, Huang Jing's in-laws' family was completely infuriated. She had already prepared a 100,000 yuan bride price, but it suddenly increased to 200,000 yuan, and it was actually to help her brother get engaged. This is really unacceptable. Huang Jing's boyfriend wanted to refuse, but was stopped by his parents. The two thought for about ten minutes, and then said, "Son, we still have to follow their requirements and give a 200,000 yuan bride price. We cannot let this marriage be terminated because of the money. If you live a bad life in the future, our sins will be great." After discussion, the boyfriend replied to Huang Jing with a text message, "No problem, we will send the money as soon as possible."
I have to say, this is the thing. Why do many people hate sky-high bride price, but have to succumb to sky-high bride price? Maybe we can find some clues in this article, but can too material marriage really be happy? The answer is no, but facing reality, we have to bow our heads and keep staggering in this contradiction. We don’t know when we can completely eliminate the “sky-high bride price”.
