An unexpected choice for a wedding
I, a boy from a small town named Zhang Lei, have understood that life is not easy since I was a child. My parents worked hard so that I could have a better future. I know that only by working hard can I get rid of the shackles of poverty and realize my dreams.
After graduating from university, I stayed in the bustling city, and with my perseverance and hard work, I gradually gained a firm foothold in the workplace. However, what made me even happier was that I met her - Xiaoyun, a gentle and kind girl from a well-to-do family. Our encounter seemed to be arranged by fate, allowing us to find each other in the vast sea of people.
Xiaoyun's family is well-off, her parents are both business executives, and she has a wide range of contacts and resources. And I, on the other hand, am just an ordinary young man from a small town, with no illustrious family background and no rich wealth. But Xiaoyun doesn't care about that, she likes my character and talent. We fell in love and decided to spend our lives together.
However, when our love came to the palace of marriage, it encountered unprecedented challenges. Xiaoyun's parents were not happy with me, they thought I was not worthy of their daughter. They hope that I can show enough sincerity and financial resources to prove my love for Xiaoyun.
In order to marry Xiaoyun, I did everything I could to prepare a grand wedding. I chose the best hotels, the most professional wedding companies, and even borrowed money from friends to meet Xiaoyun's parents' requirements. However, the night before the wedding, I received a phone call that shocked me.
On the other end of the phone was Xiaoyun's mother, her tone was cold and resolute: "Zhang Lei, I heard that you haven't prepared enough bride price?" You know, my daughter is the treasure of the family, and I can't let her marry a poor boy. I tried to explain, to tell her that I had done everything I could, but her attitude was even more resolute: "You don't want to marry my daughter without two hundred thousand!" ”
I was stunned, 200,000? This is undoubtedly an astronomical amount for me. I was in a deep despair and didn't know how to face the upcoming wedding. I called Xiaoyun to seek her support and understanding. However, her tone was a little hesitant and helpless: "Lei, my mother is ...... She may have been impulsive. But you know, she's always cared about these ......"
As I listened to Xiaoyun's words, my heart was filled with pain and helplessness. I know it's hard for her to be caught in the middle, but I can't accept that reality either. I decided to go to Xiaoyun's mother and talk to her in person, hoping to resolve the crisis.
However, when I arrived at Xiaoyun's house, I found that things were out of my control. Xiaoyun's mother is discussing with her relatives how to stop the wedding. They thought I was a poor boy with no future, unworthy of marrying their daughter. As I listened to their discussions, my heart was filled with anger and humiliation. But I knew I couldn't be impulsive, I had to face it all calmly.
Just as I was about to leave, a familiar voice came: "Mom! How can you do that? I love Lei, not his money! "It was Xiaoyun, and she rushed into the living room and stood firmly on my side. Her eyes were full of determination and courage, which made me feel extremely relieved and moved.
However, Xiaoyun's mother didn't appreciate it, she looked at Xiaoyun coldly and said, "Daughter, you are too young to understand the hardships of life. You must know that although money is not everything, it is impossible to do without money. I can't let you marry a poor boy and suffer. ”
Listening to her words, I felt a pang of heartache and helplessness. I know I can't force Xiaoyun to make a choice, but I don't want to give up our love just like that. At this moment, an unexpected figure appeared in my sight - Xiaoya, my college classmate and my long-time good friend.
Xiaoya has been silently following the affairs of me and Xiaoyun, and after she saw my current predicament, she took the initiative to stand up. She walked up to me and said, "Lei, I believe you are a talented and responsible man. If you are willing, I am willing to accompany you in this challenge. ”
I looked at Xiaoya's firm eyes and warm smile, and a warm current surged in my heart. I knew she was fighting for me and offering me another option. I took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoya, thank you for your support, but this is a matter between me and Xiaoyun, and I want to solve it personally." ”
However, things didn't work out as smoothly as I thought they would. Xiaoyun's mother still insisted on her request, and she would not let Xiaoyun marry without 200,000 yuan. I was in a deep despair, and I didn't know how to face this sudden challenge.
At this moment, an unexpected news came - Xiaoyun has decided to run away from home, and she is going to face the challenges of the future with me! When I heard the news, my heart was filled with gratitude and emotion. I know that this is Xiaoyun's love and trust in me, as well as her support and encouragement to me.
So, we decided to change our original plans and instead of having a grand wedding, we chose a simple and heartwarming ceremony to witness our love. At that moment, I deeply felt the power and beauty of love, and I also understood the importance of dignity and principles.
While our wedding wasn't perfect, it was filled with love and warmth. We have proved the power and beauty of love in our own way, and it also makes us cherish each other's feelings even more. I believe that as long as we have love and faith in our hearts, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and challenges and create a happy future that belongs to us together.
