Qin Fei and I have been in love for 7 years and are finally getting married!
Marriage is a matter for two families. Of course, the parents of both parties sit together to discuss the marriage. Qin Fei and I work in the provincial capital, so the parents of both parties come to the provincial capital together to discuss the marriage.
"Jinjin is an excellent girl, I like it just like me! I am just this son, and I will definitely treat Jinjin as my daughter in the future!" Qin Fei's mother said with a smile.
Qin Fei's father continued, "This marriage is a lifelong event, we will definitely pay attention to it!"
My parents are very satisfied with their attitude and expressed their love for Qin Fei. They said that the children have jobs, and the bride price only represents one attitude, which will be given to their small family in the future.
Qin Fei's mother smiled and said, "Now is the era of equality between men and women. Boys and girls are the same! Since two families work together to help their children create a small family, our efforts should be the same, right?"
I didn't understand what Qin Fei's mother meant, so his father continued, "Yes, men and women are equal, of course, the efforts are the same!"
My parents looked at each other, and my father said, "Since ancient times, men and women are married, how can there be absolute equality? You marry a wife? , prepare the wedding house betrothal gift, we marry our daughter and prepare the dowry, so that it is reasonable. "
My mother also said, "What are you going to do in your in-laws? Let's discuss it first."
Qin Fei's mother said, "We only have Qin Fei's only child in our family, and we certainly attach great importance to his marriage. Children need to have a house when they get married, right? This house belongs to their small family, and they have to write their names! This requires our two families to share the burden!"
What? Want my parents to buy me a house with money? Even half of it, I can't accept it.
I have a younger brother, who is 4 years younger than me and is about to graduate from college.
When I told my parents that I was going to get married, my parents told me: "We don't have the idea of favoring boys over girls, but this society is different.
Our family can not prepare a wedding house for you, but it must prepare for your younger brother. This is a must for boys.
Your mother and I are ordinary employees. If you raise you and then support you to go to school, you can never give you a house for each of you!
So, when you get married, I will give you a bride gift from your in-laws, plus 100,000 yuan as a dowry, and then buy you a car. This is our greatest effort as parents."
I never thought about asking my parents to help me buy a house, but Qin Fei's family. If they can't afford to buy a house, I don't mind renting a house first.
"Uncle and aunt, we can also not buy a house for now. After we get married, we..." Before I finished speaking, Qin Fei's mother stopped me and said:
"How can we not buy a house? Nowadays, young people must buy a house first when they get married. This is a necessity! If you buy a house, you will have much less pressure in your life in the future."
Qin Fei pulled his mother: "Mom, you can talk to uncles and aunts about the dowry and wedding matters first, let's talk about those later!"
His parents also smiled and then changed the topic. My parents didn't say anything else, and they said their thoughts about the bride price and wedding.
The dowry gift is 100,000, because we are in two cities, 300 kilometers apart, and the wedding is set at Qin Fei's house. Our family is my parents, younger brother, aunt, and uncle.
After this meeting, my parents told me before going back: "We really don't have the ability to do houses, but we won't buy a house for your brother with your bride."
I knew my parents' embarrassment and promised them that they would have a good talk with Qin Fei.
I don’t know what Qin Fei’s parents told him. When I talked to him about the marriage, he said that his parents liked a house, a four-bedroom, fine-decorated house, which cost about 3 million yuan.
"My parents mean that the down payment is 1 million, and we are half the price of each of us, but my parents said they will buy furniture for us." Qin Fei said.
I asked him who this means? He said it was his parents' intention, and I asked him what you think, and he said of course I want to buy a house too!
I said your family wants to buy a house, so I can’t ask my parents to pay too!
We had a fight, and in the end Qin Fei compromised, saying that he would convince his parents.
My parents and I told me that they didn’t need to buy a house for me. I can’t put too much pressure on them when I get married.
My mother said she had only seen the woman ask for a house, car and bride price when she got married, but she had never seen the man's family ask the woman to share the money for buying the house!
If a girl has money and is willing to marry a dowry, it is also a dowry for the girl. It is rare for the in-laws who always care about the girl’s dowry!
A few days later, Qin Fei called and said that his mother was here and asked me to have dinner together.
I knew they wanted to talk about marriage, so I followed him.
Qin Fei's mother praised me as usual, saying that she liked me very much and liked to get along with me.
Then the conversation changed and said to me, "Jinjin, you are going to marry Xiaofei soon, you have to consider your future! You two siblings, your parents' money will not be left to you alone. Now you don't let your parents buy a house for you, and if you want them to get money for you in the future, it will be even more difficult!"
I felt a little uncomfortable: "Auntie, I never thought of asking my parents to buy a house for you! Not only because I have a younger brother, even if I only have me, I don't want to make things difficult for them because of the house!"
" Don’t be stupid. How much pressure do you feel without a house! We are just Xiao Fei. Our money belongs to yours in the future. Your family will be different. The remaining money will be given to your brother. "
" Then you buy a house! I don’t mind that the house you buy only contains Qin Fei’s name. "
" The family belongs to you and Xiao Fei. Why do we just need our family to pay the money to buy a house? Besides, even if the house is written with Xiao Fei’s name, as long as you repay the loan together, there will still be a copy of your house! How can your family not pay for it?" Qin Fei’s mother immediately changed her face.
I was angry and laughed at her: "Then what you mean is that if my family doesn't pay for the house, I can't marry Qin Fei? Since that's the case, then let go of the marriage, I won't marry!"
Qin Fei was anxious: "What did you say? My mother is also for our own good. If you don't buy a house now, we will rely on the two of us in the future. I don't know when we can buy a house!"
"Then what you mean is the same as your mother, asking my parents to pay for the house?" I looked at Qin Fei: "I have heard that boys can't get married because they don't have money to buy a house, and I have never heard of girls who can't get married because they don't have a house!"
Qin Fei lowered his head and didn't speak. My heart was cold. No matter how deep the love was, it could not resist reality!
Qin Fei's mother said, "It's not that we don't have money to buy a house, but we can't afford to lose money! If you buy a house, you have a share, why should we pay for it!"
"Then cancel the wedding, I won't make things difficult for my parents no matter what!" After that, I left, and then told Qin Fei that we broke up!
After breaking up, I quit my job in the provincial capital and went home to take a job within the system. Three years later, I met Zhan Peng, and two years later we got married.
A classmate contacted Qin Fei. I heard that he had been in love several times and broke up when he was about marriage. After a long time, he himself was discouraged and has been single until now.
