Zhang Yu was not surprised by the decision of the old couple; that day at the train station, he could see that Cheng Jian's parents were already very disappointed in their only son.
As working-class people, upon hearing that the woman their son was marrying had the audacity to make such a demand, how could they agree to it?
That was an amount of money that even if the Cheng Family sold everything they had, they wouldn't be able to gather. Especially knowing Cheng Jian's personality, they were even less willing to use up all their savings, not to mention going into debt for their son. That was absolutely impossible.
Everyone thought that Cheng Jian's parents' response was perfectly reasonable.
"If one day my son's parents-in-law make such a demand, I'd rather not have a son."
Everyone nodded in agreement, "Exactly, raising a child is already so expensive, and now even marriage costs so much."
