"Is it easy for my parents to raise me? My dad, my mom, and my brother... Do I want to go far away from you without saying a word and ignore them from now on?" Xianxian said angrily.

"But have you ever thought about my situation? Your parents asked me to give me a bride price of 1.5 million yuan. Can I take it out?" Gu Qin shouted loudly.

Xianxian was stunned by Gu Qin's roar.

Gu Qin seemed to be venting the long-term depression in his heart, and erupted like a volcano erupting.

After a while, he suddenly said, "Xianxian, I'm sorry, I'm so excited. He shouldn't have treated you like this."

"What one million and a half million?" Xianxian said in shock.

"Sure enough, you don't know anything." Gu Qin smiled mockingly, shrugged her shoulders and stood in front of Xianxian, took out an A4 paper, and handed it to her: "This is the condition your parents have given me. I want to marry you, and nothing on this is missing!"

Gu Qin put the paper with dense words and numbers on the table. Until now, he can't even afford the down payment of a house. But facing his beloved, the numbers on the paper were like mountains pressing against his shoulders, making him unable to breathe.

He didn't want to give up Xianxian, nor did he want to give up this relationship, but reality hit him to pieces. He was really unable to bear it, even though he had tried his best to go in that good direction. However, facing those numbers, he was still out of reach.

That's why he chose to escape and chose to let Xianxian elope with him to other cities.

He admitted that he was selfish and irresponsible...but that was the only way he could think of.

Xianxian looked at the dense bride price statistics, and the final number was nearly 1.5 million, and she was instantly staying there.

"I remember when I went to my house last time, my parents didn't mention these things." Xianxian said in shock.

"They know that you will protect me, so they will not mention these. Three months ago, your parents found me and talked to me alone. You don't know, and my parents don't know yet. Because I can't tell you about this, nor can I tell my parents." Gu Qin said.

"It must be a mistake. My parents can't be so cruel. I'll go find them now." Xianxian looked at Gu Qin with distress, but she couldn't understand the list listed by this sky-high bride price.

He knew Gu Qin very well. Both of them had just graduated for two years. To put it bluntly, they were still struggling at the bottom of the city. It sounds good to have a firm foothold. How could they afford this large amount of money? Isn’t this the same as killing his life?

"It's useless." Gu Qin pulled Xianxian.

"Why is it useless? This is simply unreasonable. Do they want to ruin our marriage?" Xianxian said angrily.

"Xianxian, do you know what your parents told me... Actually, I don't want to tell you this, as it will make you feel that I have no responsibility and it will be useless... But when it comes to this, marriage is a matter of two families. If I don't say it, my knot will never be able to untie it." Gu Qin pulled Xianxian down.

Gu Qin has decided to tell her everything. In the previous discussion with Xianxian’s parents, they have already made a clear attitude. There is no need to discuss this matter, and even if Xianxian says it, it is useless.

"Xianxian, you know my family's background, I also know your family's background. Our family is from the countryside, and I also know that the bride price of yours is very high. I was mentally prepared at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be so high... My family is not a rich man, and it is impossible to take out such a large amount of money. Your parents told me that your family has a younger brother who has just graduated from high school. Even if you don't consider your bride price, they have to consider your younger brother's future marriage." Gu Qin said with an ugly face.

Xianxian was stunned. She didn't know that her parents had even considered the major affairs of her brother's marriage.

"I married you, not your family!"

Gu Qin couldn't bear the depression in her heart, and held Xianxian's hand and said, "Do you know what I feel now? Do you know how I came here these days? When I think of the sky-high bride price, I...I..."

"Okay, stop talking, I'll talk to my parents about this. I can't let you take on this alone." Xianxian said firmly.

Gu Qin nodded. He was so tired these days. He really wanted to be with Xianxian... But when he thought of her parents' firm attitude, he felt ashamed.

"You have to rest first, I will go home later." Xianxian said.

Gu Qin nodded. In the past few months, his nerves finally became a little relaxed. He lay on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep deeply.

Xianxian glanced at Gu Qin who was snoring slightly in the room, and her face was filled with heartache. She really didn't know that Gu Qin was silently bearing such a great deal of pressure alone.

After packing some luggage and taking the car keys, she wanted to go home.

This matter must be made clear to the family, and the dowry must not be allowed to ruin her marriage.

...

Sticking a couple in the office.

The concubine floated in from outside the window and saw Zhu Mingtong rubbing her temples on the chair, her face looked a little ugly.

"Xihu, I bought you Yonghe soy milk and fried dough sticks."

I was still gnawing a bean paste bag in my mouth and put a bag of breakfast on the table.

"Hey, you don't want to eat Xihu?" asked the concubine.

Zhu Mingtong has no appetite at all and is an immortal body. What does it matter whether he eats it or not?

What he had a headache about Lexian mortal body. Yesterday they learned that the two were actually lovers, they did not continue to track this matter, nor did they know what the matter would eventually develop. What he had a headache about now was that he didn't know how to explain to Lexian Changqin.

Tomorrow is the Ascension Conference, and he has blown away all his cowhides, and he has no choice but to this day.

Changqin is one of the examiners of the Ascension Conference. The matter of handing in the blank paper will naturally leave a bad impression on him, and his ascension is a bit lingering.

"I'm a teacher, I really envy you for being so cute when you eat." Zhu Mingtong said, rubbing his temples.

"I've always been very cute, okay... No, Xidu, you are not praising me, you must hurt me again, right?" The concubine suddenly realized that every time Zhu Mingtong praised her in the first half of her sentence, there was always one sentence that had not been finished yet. Moreover, Zhu Mingtong obviously had the second half of her sentence.

"Uh... I can't praise my subordinates as a teacher. Am I so scrupulous?" Zhu Mingtong looked ashamed.

In fact, he really didn't finish his sentence: How can you be so heartless?

"Bad." I ignored Zhu Mingtong, obviously she had seen through it and was still stubborn.

"Xihu, you must be still thinking about Gu Qin and Xianxian. People can see that. Both of them cherish their relationship very much." The concubine said with a small mouthful of bean paste.

"The persistence of love is more painful, because separation is inevitable." Zhu Mingtong suddenly said.

The little fairy looked at Zhu Mingtong with a puzzled look on her face, not understanding why the master suddenly mentioned this.

What does the two of them have to do with this?

"I'm sorry, do you know what this sentence means?" Zhu Mingtong asked.

"I don't understand very much, but I seem to understand a little bit. I just don't understand why the people who love each other end up being separated. Isn't it that the more I love each other, the more I can overcome difficulties and obstacles and achieve the right result?" said the little fairy of the concubine and concubine.

"In life, there are always many unexpected things, never time to think, and no room for thinking. Those scenery that is scattered in life always comes and goes in a hurry. In this short period of time, we have not had time to experience it carefully, but we have to learn more separation, endure more mistakes, face more impermanence, accept that we are waiting for it with our hearts but cannot always have too many losses. No matter how smart a person is, he cannot arrange it appropriately, or he can only use open-mindedness to modify himself, comfort his loss and loneliness, and tell himself that all this has happened, has gained, and has it, which is enough. You can have love, but don't be persistent, because separation is inevitable." Zhu Mingtong said.

"Wow, Nishido, what you said is so philosophical?" The concubine exclaimed, but shook her head again: "But, I still don't understand much."

"Actually, these words were not what I said. They were seen on the Internet, and I felt that some truths were made. In fact, the same is true for feelings. It's like winter when you can't see snow. Why don't you treat it as spring? Why should you be persistent?" Zhu Mingtong said seriously.

"Xihu, do you want to say that the mortal body of Lexian does not need to be so persistent? Perhaps letting go will be the best result for both?" said the concubine.

"This is not something we can control. In fact, after understanding the woman's family situation, you will understand that her persistence and her family's persistence are not something the man can control. There is no problem with the two of them themselves. The problem lies with the woman's family. This is an unchangeable fact, and it is not something that the man can do. So, I hope the man can wake up sooner and not be obsessed with the snowy winter. Perhaps the spring is waiting for him." Zhu Mingtong said very seriously.

"I still don't understand."

"The reason why this matter is complicated and not complicated is the fundamental reason lies in the woman's family. I have seen Xianxian's growth process with my lying pupils. Too much is accompanied by jealousy, care, and envy. The reason is his younger brother."

"Does her family prefer boys over girls?" said in surprise.

Now there is a society where there is a phenomenon of favoring boys over girls, and she doesn't understand.

"Although it is now advocating equality between men and women, it is still okay in metropolises, some rural and local customs are still arbitrarily and continue to emphasize the idea of ​​boys over girls. Therefore, the Xianxian family proposed such a high bride price first for their sons, and the second was the marriage between Gu Qin and Xianxian." Zhu Mingtong said.

"Why should I impose my son's future on my brother-in-law? It's simply unreasonable. Could it be that Xianxian thought so?" said the concubine.
