Qin Xiaomin said stubbornly, âIf itâs my daughter, as long as she likes him, Iâll support her.â
Li Yong smiled bitterly. âYou donât have a child yet, so of course, youâll say that now.â
After a pause, he coaxed, âYour parents are doing this for your own good. Didnât we agree that we would slowly persuade them? Iâll also use this time to prove that I have the ability to let you live a good life.â
Hearing Li Yongâs words, Qin Xiaomin gradually calmed down.
âYour parents are the people who love you the most in this world. Even 1 canât compare to one ten thousand of their love. You canât hurt the two people who love you the most just for a moment of pleasure.â
She whimpered, âWho am 1 doing this for? Wasnât I doing it for you? Why are you so ungrateful?â
The people she loved became âtrashâ in her parentsâ mouths.
She was too angry at that time and couldnât care less about anything else.
Li Yong smiled bitterly, âItâs not worth it to do it for me. Moreover, the more you hurt them for me, the less they will like me. This is a vicious circle.â
Qin Xiaomin pursed her lips and didnât speak for a long time.
âLetâs go back and apologize?â Li Yong asked tentatively. âLetâs calm down and talk to your parents.â
Qin Xiaomin seemed to have thought it through. She nodded and said, âOkay!â
Li Yong heard this and heaved a sigh of relief.
When Li Yong appeared at the door with Qin Xiaomin, everyone was stunned.
Especially Qin Zhiye and Niu Ailan.
âFather, Mother, Iâm sorry. 1 apologize for what 1 said just now.â
For a moment, Qin Zhiye and Niu Allanâs expressions became even more complicated.
They understood their own children. Qin Xiaomin looked gentle, but she was very stubborn. She was also very vengeful, and had strong self-esteem.
In the past, whether it was a quarrel with her parents or with her younger brother, it would take a few days to get over it.
But today, she actually turned around and apologized.
This was really unlike her.
Needless to say, her change must have come from Li Yong.
What did Li Yong say to make her so obedient?
Niu Ailan didnât say anything. Thinking of her daughter listening to Li Yongâs words, she felt even more upset.
âOkay, the child has already apologized to you. How can there be a feud between mother and daughter?â Qin Junshan said with a smile.
Niu Ailan raised her head and glanced at Qin Xiaomin. Her expression gradually eased up.
Qin Zhiye hurriedly pulled Qin Xiaomin to sit beside Niu Ailan. âThatâs right. The child has already given you a way out, so you should just go along with it.â
Hearing this, Niu Ailan glared at Qin Zhiye unhappily. âIs it only you who can be a good person?â
Seeing this, Qin Zhiye smiled and didnât get angry.
âUncle, Aunt, we are the wrong one in this matter. We shouldnât have met privately without telling you. But I really like Xiaomin. I know Iâm not worthy of her now. I also ran away for a long time and struggled for a long time before I mustered up my courage and decided to be with her,â Li Yong suddenly said.
The smile on Qin Zhiyeâs face disappeared. He put on a straight face and listened to Li Yongâs words.
Niu Ailan tugged at the corner of her lips and pulled out a mocking smile.
In her opinion, Li Yongâs words were pure fart.
If he really knew that he was not worthy of Xiaomin, he should not have started this.
âSince I have chosen to be with her, I will not let her suffer with me. I have been working hard now. I have also saved some moneyâ¦â
âHow much money can you save by farming at the village? If my daughter really marries you, would she have to live with you in the countryside for the rest of her life?â Niu Ailan interrupted Li Yongâs words.
âI donât need my daughter to be rich and powerful, but weâve raised her meticulously for more than 20 years. We canât possibly let her live a worse life after marrying someone, right?â
Niu Allanâs words made sense, and Li Yong was stumped for words for a moment.
âThen what do you mean? Youâre adamant about not agreeing to our matter? Is there no room for negotiation at all?â
Seeing Qin Xiaominâs tone become choked up again, a war between mother and daughter was about to break out.
Ji Yuanyuan, who had been silent all this time, jumped down from the sofa, she took a few steps forward before saying, âAuntie Qin, I think youâve misunderstood what Grandma Niu means. What she means is, as long as Second Uncle can make your life better than it is now, sheâll agree to the matter between the two of you.â
When Niu Ailan heard this, she became anxious, âWhen did Iâ¦â
âSecond Uncle, when you earn money, buy a villa too. Then, you can marry Auntie Qin,â Ji Yuanyuan pretended not to hear Niu Ailanâs words and said directly.
Niu Ailan originally wanted to refute ji Yuanyuanâs words, but when she heard that she wanted Li Yong to buy a villa, she swallowed the rest of her words.
1 low much was this villa? Li Yong probably couldnât afford it even in ten years!
She didnât say anything, but the corners of her lips curved into a mocking smile.
After Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, he looked at Niu Ailan. âGrandma Niu, am I right?â
Niu Ailan looked at Li Yong and said in a low voice, âThe villa next door that your Uncle Qin bought some time ago is 300,000 Yuan. When you have accumulated 300,000 Yuan, Iâll agree to your relationship. How about it?â
After saying that, she then looked at Qin Xiaomin. âDonât say that I donât like him and wonât give you a chance. Youâve lived in a villa since you were young. Itâs not too much for me to ask him to buy a villa for you to live in, right? As long as he can prove to me that your living standard will not be lowered after marrying him, Iâll agree to your relationship.â
Niu Ailan had calmed down now, so her words were very standard.
Qin Xiaomin clearly knew that she was making things difficult for Li Yong, but she could not find any reason to refute it.
Li Yong was also in a bit of a dilemma. If it was 100,000 to 80,000, Yuan he will grit his teeth, and perhaps he could really gather it in one or two years.
But this was 300,000 Yuan!
300,000 Yuan to him was no different from a sky-high price.
If he did not agree, Niu Ailan would have a reason to continue to stop them.
But if he agreed, how long would it take for him to accumulate 300,000 Yuan?
If it was ten or eight years, could Qin Xiaomin afford to wait?
However, in this situation, Niu Ailan, Qin Zhiye, and even Qin Xiaomin were all staring at him.
He was hot-headed, so he agreed just like that. âOkay!â
After leaving Qin Xiaominâs house, Qin Junshan led the group to his own house.
Li Yong walked at the back, his head drooping. He sighed from time to time.
When they reached Qin Junshanâs house, Nanny Xiao Qi quickly picked up the vegetables and fruits that were thrown on the ground and brought them to the kitchen.
Soon, she washed the fruits and brought them to the living room before turning invisible.
Qin Junshan pushed the strawberries in front of Ji Yuanyuan. âYuanyuan, eat the strawberries!â
Ji Yuanyuan raised her head and gave Qin Junshan a sweet smile. âThank you, Grandpa!â
Then, she took a strawberry from her plate and ran to Li Yong. She stuffed the strawberry into his mouth.. âSecond Uncle, donât look so sad, give me a smile!â
