My family received 4.6 million yuan from the demolition. My girlfriend raised the original 120,000 yuan betrothal gift to 1.2 million yuan. She also said that since my family received so much money, she should give her more. She wanted to leave the betrothal gift to her parents.
I am 25 years old this year. Because I like cooking since I was a child, my parents sent me to learn cooking after graduating from junior high school. After I came back, I have been working in a restaurant. Now I am a chef in a restaurant with a salary of more than 6,000 yuan.
Your friend and I met at a dinner party. She came to my place with her colleagues from the company. She said that she liked the dish I cooked very much. After that, she often came to my place alone for dinner. We became familiar with each other.
She is beautiful and has a college degree. She is simply the goddess in my mind. She is just three years older than me. She is 28 this year. In our town, there are not many girls who are still unmarried at this age. After all, most of their families are from nearby rural areas. Later I found out that she was too demanding. She had been with three boyfriends and they all fell out when they were about to get married.
I had been with her for half a year and planned to get married, but I didn't expect that my fiancée would do something else at this time.
She told me directly: "Your family received 4.6 million yuan from the demolition, so my betrothal gift has to increase, not much, just give me 1.2 million yuan."
I was stunned at the time, it increased tenfold in an instant? I asked her: "The wedding date is approaching, and the invitations have been sent out. Why do you suddenly change your mind?"
She said: "I haven't changed my mind? We should get married, but you should give me more betrothal gifts."
I said: "My parents only have me as their son. We will all be ours in the future. You really don't have to do this now."
She said: "That's different! I want betrothal gifts for my parents."
I smiled and said: "Don't make a fuss. Why should we give our family's money to your parents? I didn't care about 100,000 before, but now I can't agree to 1.2 million."
She said: "My parents raised me up, what's wrong with me giving them some money as a filial piety?"
I really laughed to death: "You have such a high degree of education, and you are in contact with wealthy big clients. Hurry up and find your rich man? I can't afford it."
She: "How dare you talk to me like this? Don't you even ask your parents if they agree?"
I said: "I don't need to ask my parents. I can make the decision myself. Our marriage is ruined."After saying that, I turned around and left.
