She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 159: Chapter 160: Selling a Son to Get a Daughter-in-law

“But what?” They’re putting on airs! Forget it, last time it was their family who proposed to call off the wedding, and they were the ones at fault. So it’s normal for them to have a bit of difficulty this time.

“Our Ningning is much younger than Xu Qigang,” she wouldn’t make decisions for Ningning, but she would help her rigorously filter.

“Uh…” Zhao Lanzhi chokedan any average young man.”

Sheng An, who was eavesdropping outside, blushed, cursing silently to herself that that sly old wife sure knows how to talk so decently!

Shen Luhua heard this and laughed, “I heard it’s a whole cycle older!”

“Who said a cycle? It’s only ten years,” Zhao Lanzhi felt a bit guilty. Ten years was indeed too much in a rural village of the eighties.

In most families, if someone were six or seven years older, it would already seem outrageous. Qigang had wasted so many years. The chances of finding someone his age in that village were slim.

Even if there were, it would be someone who had been married before, and how could her excellent son marry a divorcee?

Forget it, for the sake of her son’s happiness, she would throw away her pride.

“Let me tell you, being older means he knows how to take care of someone. Once they get married, I guarantee that if Ningning tells Qigang to face east, he won’t face west. Whatever Ningning says, Qigang will listen. I wholeheartedly approve.” My son, I’m sorry!

It’s Mom’s fa content your father is with his life. Men who listen to their wives are the happiest.

Shen Luhua was stunned, admiring Zhao Lanzhi to the core. She had never seen such a driven mother before, but it was worth learning from.

If An’an couldn’t get married in the future, she could use this tactic too.

“Let me tell you, our son’s salary is even higher than the town mayor’s.” It’s all thanks to our son that we can work towards prosperity!

“Really?” Shen Luhua’s eyes lit up.

“Absolutely!” Zhao Lanzhi replied with utmost confidence.

“Then can you pay that much for the bride price?” Shen Luhua gestured with five fingers.

“Five hundred?” That doesn’t seem like a high demand!

“No!” Shen Luhua hesitated, swallowing hard, worried she might frighten the other party. “It’s five thousand.”

“What? Five thousfor a marriage would be considered a significant fortune. She actually asked for five thousand right off the bat, her appetite was too big.

“You clearly want to sell your daughter, she can’t possibly be your own flesh and blood for you to be so heartless!” Hmph! Stepmothers will be stepmothers, truly heartless! Her future daughter-in-law is also so unlucky.

“You’ve got it wrong!” Shen Luhua forced a smile, “If you really can come up with five thousand for the bride price, I’ll marry off my second daughter to your family.”

Now it was Zhao Lanzhi’s turn to be dumbfounded, admiring Shen Luhua to the core. Sure enough, she had foresight, knowing hwanting to miss out on her excellent son.

Sheng An, listening outside, felt her heart and all her internal organs ache. In a moment of impulse, she stuck her head through the window, eyes red, and said, “Mom, you really are my biological mother. What sin did I commit in my past life for you to be so biased?”

Tears flickered in Shen Luhua’s eyes, a woman who was gentle on the outside but incredibly resolute within, more formidable than men. Clearly heartbroken over her own daughter but still simply said, “We owe Ningning, just tell me whether you’re willing to marry or not!”
