My Youth Began With Him - Chapter 1442

Chapter 1442: 1442


Qin Chu opened the front door and walked in . "Mom… you're here . "

"Mhm . " Yang Meirong nodded with a smile .

"Chu's back, let's have lunch . Come on, Meirong," Mrs . Qin said as she led Yang Meirong into the kitchen, and the five of them sat down .

There were 18 dishes on the table, everything looking as delicious as could be .

"Wow… there's so much food!" Huo Mian licked her lips .

"Mian, eat as much as you can . You've been overtiring yourself recently, you need nutrients," Mrs . Qin reminded her, and Huo Mian nodded . "I will, Mom . "

"Come on, let's eat . Don't be shy, Meirong, dig in . "

"Okay . "

As they ate, Mrs . Qin thought that the time was right so she said, "Meirong, our children are holding a wedding soon, we should talk about the reverse dowry . "

"Reverse dowry? No, it's okay, their ceremony is just a formality, we don't need money and presents . Plus, Qin Chu's been great to Mian, buying her a house and car . He even bought me an expensive townhouse . I'm very happy about everything, so we really don't need anything else . " Yang Meirong wasn't greedy when it came to money, as long as Huo Mian had enough to spend . Therefore, she would never make her daughter's life hard by listing out unrealistic expectations .



Although she wasn't as rich as the Qins, her dignity would never allow her to do anything that might embarrass herself in front of her in-laws .

"Meirong, this is a Northern Chinese tradition, we can't skip over it . Let's go by the ancestor's rules…"

"No, really, it's okay," Yang Meirong insisted .

Qin Yumin slowly said, "Meirong, please don't misunderstand us… we have to give our daughter-in-law a reverse dowry . You've worked hard to raise two kids on your own, and we are so grateful that you raised a daughter like Huo Mian . You have no idea how proud we are that she's our daughter-in-law… therefore, stop refusing the reverse dowry, it's necessary . "

Yang Meirong was just about to say something when Qin Chu interjected, "Mom, if they want to give you money, just accept it . They're filthy rich . "



Upon hearing this, Huo Mian couldn't help but laugh as she nudged Qin Chu .

Mrs . Qin, on the other hand, glared at her son . "You little brat, sucking up to your mother-in-law already!"

Then, the five of them burst out in laughter .

Mrs . Qin took a delicate box out from her bag and handed it to Huo Mian . "Mian… Qin Chu's paternal grandmother gave this to me, it's a bracelet made with high-quality jade . I'm going to give it to you now and hopefully, you'll be able to pass it down for generations to come . "

"Thanks, Mom . " Huo Mian smiled and carefully took the jade bracelet from her mother-in-law .



Qin Chu laughed, "Mom, you might as well have told Mian to have a son, so she can give this bracelet to her daughter-in-law in the future . "

"What are you talking about? I don't care about gender . If you guys have a girl, Mian can just give this bracelet to my granddaughter . " Mrs . Qin smiled .


Qin Yumin placed his wineglass down and said slowly, "Meirong, why don't we tell you our plans for the reverse dowry? It's a formality . "

"Sure . " Yang Meirong nodded; she really didn't have it in her to ask them for money . Therefore, she was happy that Qin Yumin offered to tell her their plans .

"Dad… we don't need a reverse dowry, Qin Chu and I have been married for over a year, and this time around we're just holding a ceremony… you don't have to take it so seriously . " Huo Mian tried to persuade her father-in-law .
