Chapter 430 I Will Become the Daughter-in-law of a Wealthy Family
Regarding this matter, the original owner Sirong really wanted to say something.
Are you guys performing Dream of the Red Chamber for me here?
Mouthwash? Whose mouthwash puts two slices of lemon in it?
Isn't that just lemonade?
But you guys are just a bunch of people with nothing better to do than to act like you're so high-class.
In which coffee shop, the lemonade served is not meant for people to drink?
The location for afternoon tea that day was chosen by my daughter-in-law.
Her purpose was also to embarrass the original owner Sirong.
Because the afternoon tea in this restaurant is quite expensive, and the restaurant is relatively niche.
She was sure Sirong had never been here before.
This restaurant has a special afternoon tea with a very unique taste, and guests are required to clean their mouths before eating.
When serving tea, the waiters will explain the reason to the guests.
But when the waiter wanted to remind the guests that day, he was waved away by the daughter-in-law.
The waitress saw that these people were old customers who came here frequently, so she left obediently.
Besides, it’s just a glass of lemonade, there’s no harm in drinking it.
Unfortunately, no one reminded the original owner Sirong, so she drank it as if it were lemonade.
This attracted the ridicule of a group of noble ladies.
In fact, if you ask the original owner Sirong, the dim sum in this restaurant is really not as delicious as they say.
The portion is small and the price is expensive.
Rather than calling it a niche restaurant, it would be more accurate to say that there are not so many suckers coming here to patronize it.
But these ladies, just like the ministers in the Emperor's New Clothes, all want to be smart.
Everyone praised the restaurant chef's ingenuity and the exquisite snacks.
Just now at the dinner table, Muchen's sister-in-law wanted to bring up a conversation as usual and bring up this matter as if it were a normal chat.
But Muchen and Sirong worked in perfect harmony and diverted her conversation several times.
It's true that Mu's father is a first-generation rich man, but this old man doesn't have the simplicity of those who started from scratch.
Instead, they pay much attention to these obvious things.
He always wants to show off that his family is rich. He usually smokes cigars and drinks red wine.
I am especially afraid of my family and I have lost my dignity.
He completely forgot that when he married Muchen's mother, among all their belongings, only one pair of pants was not patched.
Sirong and the others changed the subject of their daughter-in-law's conversation. They had no other intentions, they simply didn't want to discuss the conditions of leaving with Mu's father at the dinner table.
In that case, with her stepmother around, Sirong was afraid that there would be a few zeros missing on the check given by Mu's father.
Because the dinner was quite harmonious, Mu Chen was called to the study by his father after the meal.
It was still the same old clichés, and the general meaning was how hard it was for him to build this family business.
The future will all be in Muchen's hands.
One is to make him grateful, and the other is to make him obedient.
For example, given his current status, Sirong, his wife, is no longer worthy of him.
There will be a cocktail party or socializing later.
It would still be more appropriate to have a daughter-in-law who is carefully trained by a noble family.
As he spoke, Mu's father became sad, lamenting that those in power were helpless.
Muchen stood in front of Mu's father with his head lowered, just like the original owner did every time.
Acting in a very embarrassed manner.
"Dad! It's not that I don't want to separate from Sirong. You can see that Sirong doesn't meet your standards.
But we had a good relationship before.
Besides, she didn't do anything wrong. I can't bring myself to divorce her!"
Mu's father: "Why can't you speak up? Your identity is different now.
Our family business will be handed over to you in the future!
By then, you will be the head of a prestigious group, and your wife will be a real estate salesperson who graduated from an ordinary university.
If there's an important occasion, you won't be able to bring her along."
Muchen: "But Aunt Zhang doesn't have any education, does she?" Muchen was referring to his stepmother Zhang Aili.
"That's the problem. When I became successful, your Aunt Zhang had already given birth to your brother. Unlike you and Sirong.
You two don't have children yet, so we can give Sirong some more compensation when the time comes. This will not affect either of you.
By then, Dad will find you a wife who is of equal social status and will be a help to your career in the future.
With our financial compensation, Sirong will be able to live a good life materially after she gets married. Why not?"
Mu Chen suppressed his temper and listened to Mu's father's twisted logic until he finally got to the point: "Then, Dad, how much compensation do you want to give Sirong?"
"This...? Let's see how much she wants. I mean five million."
"Only five million?" Muchen opened his eyes wide and pretended to be ignorant.
This sentence made the old man choke. Five million is not enough?
He usually paid 800,000 yuan to send a celebrity. The 5 million yuan he could come up with was because Sirong and Muchen were legally married.
Why is this son's elbow so outward?
Now that the couple is breaking up, of course the less they give, the better.
"Dad, it's not easy for Sirong to live with me, you should give her more!" Muchen acted as if he and Sirong still had feelings for each other.
It's the kind of expression where he doesn't want to be separated from his wife, but he will still listen to his father obediently.
This approach made Mu's father feel a little proud.
I don't know what's so superior about him. He is competing with his own daughter-in-law. Old man, you are a man, do you know that?
Your son and his wife are plotting against you, didn't you expect that?
He certainly didn't expect that Mu's father was now proud of his son's obedience.
Seeing that his son still wanted to help Sirong get more, he pressed the call bell on the desk and asked the housekeeper to invite Sirong to the study.
"I'd better ask Sirong for her opinion on this matter. I'll discuss the price with her."
At this time, Sirong was in her room, lying on the bed watching the live broadcast sent to her by Xiao 5.
She knew exactly what Muchen and Mu's father said in the study.
In addition, Xiao 5, Muchen and Sirong have their own small group.
Just now when Muchen was helping her negotiate the price, Sirong was still thinking about it and complained to Muchen for a long time about how stingy Mu's father was.
On the way to the study, Sirong and Muchen had already discussed the lowest price in their minds.
"Ten million, I won't divorce Muchen if it's less than this!"
Mu's father was almost choked to death by Sirong's words: "Rongrong, Dad is doing this for your own good. With Mu Chen's current status, you are no longer suitable to be his wife."
"I don't quite understand what my father is saying. When do we become legally married and still consider whether we are compatible? If that's what you're saying, how do we explain the wedding vows we made when we got married?"
No matter whether I am rich or poor, I only deserve to be poor?
Whether healthy or sick, I can only choose illness?
Good times and bad times, but for me, there is only bad times? "
