Chapter 2285: Find a Way to Get Married

"I bought him some stuff today because I want to thank him. He didn't ask me to buy anything. Besides... he's only an ordinary salaried worker and doesn't earn as much as me," Li Gui said.

Qiao Mei smiled mockingly. She was not mocking Li Gui, but Xu Ba. His job position was not low-ranking and his monthly salary was at least 140 dollars. Since he worked in a state-owned unit, the benefits were good too. He was considered to be in an outstanding position in this era. In business, one would still need to face both losses and profits. For Xu Ba, it was pure profits all the way.

"Who told you that he doesn't earn much?" Qiao Mei asked.

Li Gui did not say anything. She had guessed all these things, but Xu Ba had indeed always intentionally or unintentionally mentioned that there was a difference in their financial statuses.

At this point, Li Gui understood everything. She lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I didn't think it through. There's no good ending for the two of us."

"I'm not forcing you to give it up. It's not as if this matter can't be resolved," Qiao Mei said. Li Gui's extinguished pa.s.sion was reignited with hope. She asked excitedly, "How do we resolve it?" After saying that, she felt that it was embarra.s.sing to sound so desperate and she blushed.

"Let Xia He train you. This way, you won't have to be scared of anyone. If anyone bullies you, you can hit them back. Our family has medicine and money and can afford to compensate anyone. Even if someone dies, we can bring the person back to life," Qiao Mei said arrogantly.

Xia He almost laughed out loud. If she had not seen with her own eyes how Xia Mao was saved from the brink of death by Qiao Mei's medicine, she would have thought that Qiao Mei was exaggerating.

"If you're ever the antagonist, you'll be a very scary one." After saying that, Xia He looked at Li Gui and said, "Qiao Mei is right. As long as you're strong enough, they won't dare to bully you casually."

Xia He's first marriage was not a happy one. Back then, she gave in to the Kong family all the time and thought that she could get their understanding in return. She did not expect them to bully her even more.

The Deng family members were very nice to her and her in-laws treated her like their own daughter. She no longer had to live by her mother-in-law's rules and her life was so much more carefree!

"I... I don't have that kind of ability," Li Gui said.

"Then what should I do? Do I have to watch you get bullied? If that's your att.i.tude, then don't date Xu Ba anymore. I'll immediately get my mother-in-law to find you another blind date," Qiao Mei said in a fit of pique.

In life, there was no such thing as getting your way in everything. There were always choices to be made. Li Gui's ambiguous att.i.tude would only hurt herself while Xu Ba would not lose anything.

"You just have to promise me that you'll fight back when others bully you. Leave the rest to me," Qiao Mei said.

Before Li Gui and Xu Ba could get married, she had to teach the Xu family members a lesson and let them know that Li Gui was not someone to be trifled with. The Qiao and Xia families were Li Gui's strongest backers. Even without Xu Ba, Li Gui's life could only get better and better.

It was unfortunate that she had to handle this matter in a crude way. There was no other way if she wanted to satisfy Li Gui's wishes.

What if Li Gui and Xu Ba got a divorce because of these family conflicts in the future? For Xu Ba, it would just be a failure of his second marriage. However, it was different for Li Gui. This would be Li Gui's third marriage. If she got a divorce, who knew what the neighbors would say!

They would only say that Li Gui was a jinx and a hex! That no matter who she married, the marriage would not last long. In the end, it would become Li Gui's fault!

Qiao Mei had seen and heard too many of such things. Li Gui would not be able to withstand the pressure brought about by public opinion at all. When the time came, it would only make her physically and mentally exhausted.

After thinking about it, Qiao Mei said, "You and Mr. Xu should have a good chat about marriage. Let me know when you're done. We... we'll then have a meal with the Xu family."

"Alright! Alright!" Li Gui said happily. She skipped happily and ran back to her room to give Xu Ba a call.

Xia He looked at Li Gui's departing figure and said, "This is the first time I've seen Auntie Li so happy."

"Yes, me too," Qiao Mei said wistfully.

"Are you really ready for this? Don't tell me you're just trying to trick Auntie Li into telling you the truth?" Xia He asked.

"Nothing is certain. I'm not fully prepared either. I only know that if the Xu family is insatiable and shameless, then I definitely won't let my mother marry into the family, even if it means sending her to the south to live for a period of time," Qiao Mei said.

"Don't worry. Auntie Li won't be so muddle-headed. You're the person she cherishes the most. She won't ignore her children's opinions," Xia He comforted.

"I didn't expect you to know how to comfort people!" Qiao Mei said with a laugh.

"I'm not totally emotionless! How can I not know how to do it! Let me know when you're having a meal with them and I'll go along," Xia He said.
