Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.

This person's family is wealthy, and he knows many important and influential people.

My mother has been bedridden and paralyzed, and my three children also need someone to take care of them.

Xiaojuan is capable, and marrying her would be perfect for her to manage the household chores and take care of the elderly and children, which is a good thing.

Moreover, having a wealthy son-in-law means his future expenses will be covered.

Li Xiaojuan shook off his hand and said coldly, "Dad, my affairs are none of your business. I will live my own life."

Li Jianguo never expected his daughter to dare to contradict him in public, and his face immediately fell: "What nonsense are you talking about! I'm doing this for your own good!"

With such good conditions, so many people would love to marry into this family, why are you putting on airs!

"You're already this age, and you've been divorced. It's already a miracle that Mr. Zhang doesn't look down on you. How dare you be so picky?"

Zhang Youcai rubbed his hands together and smiled as he tried to smooth things over: "It's alright, it's alright. It's normal for a young lady to be shy."

Brother Li, don't push her too hard. Let Xiaojuan think it over carefully. I have plenty of patience.

As he spoke, he took out a red cloth bag, put it on the table, and opened it to reveal several neat stacks of ten-yuan bills inside.

"This is a small gift to start the meeting. We'll buy Xiaojuan two new outfits first. Once you've thought it through, we'll pick a date for the wedding."

Li Jianguo's eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't help but reach out to touch the stack of money.

This stack is so thick, it must be worth several hundred dollars, right?

This boss is incredibly generous. If this marriage goes through, how could his father-in-law's allowance be any less?

He quickly stuffed the money into Li Xiaojuan's hand: "Look how much Boss Zhang values ​​you, how sincere he is! What are you hesitating for? Hurry up and take it!"

Li Xiaojuan pushed the money away, scattering it all over the floor. She looked at Li Jianguo, her voice cold: "I told you, I'm not getting married. It's none of your business."

"Dad, take him with you and leave quickly. I need to go back to my business."

"You've gone too far!"

Li Jianguo was so angry that he raised his hand to hit her, but his wrist was grabbed tightly. Zhang Wenying was standing by the table at some point, her face as black as a dark cloud.

She watched her daughter leave, but feeling uneasy, she followed.

She never expected that this old man would scheme against her daughter's marriage; it infuriated her.

Zhang Wenying flung Li Jianguo's hand away, stood in front of Li Xiaojuan, and sneered at the two of them: "Who do we have here? It turns out to be you, you old bastard, trying to scheme against my daughter."

What's wrong? My daughter just got divorced, and you're already in a hurry to find her a new boyfriend, trying to use her to make money?

Li Jianguo, are you out of your mind? Are you really willing to push your own daughter into a fire pit for a few dollars?

Who in Shanghai doesn't know Zhang Youcai's reputation?

He takes advantage of his money to ruin other people's girls. Both of his previous wives were driven away by his torment.

And his bedridden mother is no pushover either, always finding ways to torment her daughter-in-law.

As for the three children, they are so spoiled that they are completely unruly; any woman who marries into them will be in big trouble.

Li Jianguo is doing this, pushing his own daughter into a fire pit and calling it "for your own good." Doesn't he fear retribution?

Seeing Zhang Wenying's aggressive demeanor, Zhang Youcai remained unfazed and, with a fawning smile, asked, "This must be my mother-in-law, right?"

I genuinely want to marry Xiaojuan. If she agrees, I'll give her 800 yuan as a bride price, and I guarantee I'll marry her in style and make sure she doesn't suffer any hardship.

"Whether you've been wronged or not is none of your business to decide."

Zhang Wenying took a step forward, staring at Zhang Youcai, "I heard that your mother is paralyzed in bed and you have three children, the eldest of whom is only a teenager. Are you going to let my daughter marry into your family and become your free nanny?"

"A hundred yuan a month? You really dare to ask for that! Why don't you marry your own cousin and enjoy that kind of life?"

That old man has an ambiguous relationship with his cousin; everyone in the city knows that.

Zhang Youcai's smile faded: "Comrade, how can you talk like that? I'm just showing my appreciation for Miss Xiaojuan."

Besides, she's my wife now that she's married into the family, so everything I own belongs to her. How could I possibly mistreat her?

"Get the hell out of here!" Zhang Wenying raised her hand and swept the teapot off the table, shattering it on the floor with a "bang".

"Let me tell you, don't act like a scoundrel in front of my daughter. Take your stinking money and get the hell out of here. If you dare spout nonsense again, I'll expose your dirty secrets and let the whole street see what kind of scumbag you are, you greasy-faced old lecher!"

Zhang Youcai's expression changed.

He originally came out to find a second wife to serve his family, and his words just now were already concealing his ulterior motives.

After being scolded by Zhang Wenying, he immediately became angry: "How can you be so unreasonable? I came here out of kindness to meet your daughter, and if you don't agree, fine, but why are you yelling at me?"

"I'm talking about you!" Zhang Wenying grabbed a broom from behind the door, pointed it at the entrance, and said, "I'm saying this one last time: take your money and get out of here right now, or I'll break your legs!"

Li Jianguo quickly came up and pulled Zhang Wenying: "Zhang Wenying, what are you doing? It's a perfectly good marriage, why don't you agree to it?"

With Boss Zhang being such a good catch, Xiaojuan won't be at a disadvantage marrying him!

"Get out of here! Who gives you the right to speak here?" Zhang Wenying shoved Li Jianguo aside.

"If you dare interfere in my daughter's affairs again, I'll sue you for interfering with her freedom to marry!"

Li Jianguo stumbled from the push, glancing at the gleaming broom in Zhang Wenying's hand and then at the crowd that had gathered to watch the commotion. He immediately lost his nerve and could only awkwardly advise Zhang Youcai, "Boss Zhang, what do you think...? Perhaps we should go back first and discuss it another day?"

Zhang Youcai had never been treated like this before. He snorted angrily, bent down to pick up the money from the ground, said "You wait," and then turned and left.

Li Jianguo quickly followed behind with a forced smile, and they walked out of the store.

Zhang Wenying slammed the broom on the ground, turned around to look at Li Xiaojuan, whose face had turned pale, and softened her voice: "Daughter, don't be afraid, Mom is here, no one can force you."

"You can marry if you want, or live on your own if you don't. Mom can support you."

As Li Xiaojuan watched Zhang Wenying's figure, her nose tingled, and tears immediately streamed down her face.

"Mom, I don't want to get married yet."

Her career was just starting to take off, and she didn't want to give herself away so carelessly.

"If you don't want to get married, then don't get married. Mom supports you."

Zhang Wenying leaned the broom against the corner of the wall, walked over, and patted Li Xiaojuan on the shoulder.

"Mom knows you have your own ideas, and you are more capable than Mom."

Women don't have to rely on men to live a good life.

"Just focus on your career, Mom will support you."

Li Xiaojuan wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously.

She recalled what Tan Chun said in "Dream of the Red Chamber": "If I were a man, I could go out and stand on my own two feet, and I would surely achieve something great."

Although she was not born a man, she did not want to be trapped in the mundane matters of daily life and arranged marriages.

If that Boss Zhang dares to come again, she'll beat him to a pulp.
