Chapter 1696: Miss Nice Girl (59)

“If you marry into a good family, you can even help support your parents' family from time to time.”

“The way to tell whether a man truly treats you well is by seeing how he treats your family. If he doesn't treat your family well, then that man definitely won't do.”

“Xiao Guo, when you get married, don't forget your family. Your natal family will always be your support. Your husband's family is ultimately someone else's family. No matter what you do, you should always think about your own family first.”

“And Xiaokun is your biological younger brother. If anything ever happens to you after your father and I are gone, it'll still be Xiaokun who stands up for you.”

“Xiaokun is a smart child. He'll definitely have a bright future. He's your younger brother, so you must take good care of him. Once he becomes successful, he certainly won't forget his older sister. No matter how close you are to others, they'll never be closer than your own blood relatives. Isn't that right?”

“Mom, you're right. I'll remember it all,” Tang Guo answered with a smile.

Seeing that Tang Guo was still as obedient as ever, Li Meixue relaxed slightly, and her words became even more blatant.

She repeatedly emphasized that her natal family was the most important, that blood relatives were closest, and that they should always come first.

She also reminded Tang Guo to investigate the blind date's family carefully when they met.

Even though a matchmaker had introduced him, she worried that some information might be false. It wouldn't do if they suffered a loss.

This time, Tang Guo was very straightforward.

“Mom, how much bride price should we ask for?”

“The men I've arranged for you are all sons of bosses. Their status and position are excellent, and they even own companies in the provincial capital. Our Xiao Guo is so beautiful. The bride price should definitely be at least four or five hundred thousand yuan.”

“Mhm, that sounds right. Mom raised me all these years. If we don't ask for four or five hundred thousand, then they're clearly not sincere enough,” Tang Guo agreed.

Li Meixue beamed.

“Exactly. Our Xiao Guo is so pretty, we should definitely ask for more. Those rich young masters don't lack money. If they can't even afford that, then they just want a wife for free. How could there be such a cheap deal?”

“Mom, if we're asking for a bride price, then we should require a house too, right? How should we set the conditions?”

The system sighed.

Host, are you really doing this?

“Of course there must be a house. At the very least, there has to be a three-bedroom apartment in the city center of the provincial capital before they can marry you. And they must have a car for transportation. No matter what, it should cost at least three or four hundred thousand yuan.”

It wasn't that Li Meixue was overly confident.

It was because after seeing how graceful and beautiful Tang Guo had grown up to be, she had ruthlessly eliminated many of the previous candidates.

In fact, she even felt those men weren't worthy of her daughter and planned to have the matchmaker search for even better prospects.

Whatever Li Meixue said, Tang Guo obediently agreed, making her mother happier and happier. As a result, she no longer felt any pain when paying for all the purchases.

Li Meixue had no idea that a man dressed very ordinarily, wearing sunglasses, had been silently wandering around the mall the entire time, circling wherever they went.

After buying a mountain of things, the mother and daughter returned home.

This time, because Li Meixue wanted to sell her daughter for a good price, she didn't let Tang Guo do any housework.

Instead, she told her to take good care of herself and repeatedly reminded her not to spend too much time in the sun.

Naturally, Tang Guo was delighted.

From childhood until now, the original owner had never truly experienced love from these parents.

To them, she had basically been raised like livestock.

The only difference was that compared to a pig, they had added one extra step—

From time to time, they brainwashed her.
