Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 229 - 161: Chess Reflects Character!
And he also brought such generous gifts, not to mention the gold bracelet, Moutai, and Qinghualang!
Even one random pack of his cigarettes is worth much more than the two shabby gift boxes Zhang Chaofan brought.
The eldest son-in-law is so outstanding!
So, Zhang Chaofan, who has come to "apply" to become the second son-in-law of the Lin Family, inevitably gets compared.
And in such a comparison, he is instantly reduced to nothing!
After all, there is no harm without comparison!
"Old Lin, since we have guests at home, let’s get on with the process quickly!"
Wang Shulan also realized the arrival of Shen Qiushan, which invisibly added difficulty for Zhang Chaofan.
But that’s unavoidable.
After all, it was such a coincidence!
Just as Shen Qiushan, the eldest son-in-law, arrived, it happened to be at the time of the matchmaking meeting.
"Miss Lin, I’ve already told you my basic details earlier."
"Feel free to tell me whatever requirements you have."
Zhang Chaofan quickly continued the conversation, even though he would have liked to chat more with Shen Qiushan, but today he was really here to date.
And he truly had his eyes on Lin Xiamo, this date.
"Requirements?"
"Are you talking about material aspects?"
Lin Xiamo asked in return.
"Material or spiritual, either is fine."
"I will do my best to satisfy them!" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Zhang Chaofan seemed very confident.
"The spiritual level is hard to say, let’s talk about the material level first."
Lin Xiamo indifferently said: "I like the houses in Jinjiang Bay, the 246-square-meter layout."
"As for the car, the BYD u8 seems pretty nice, I test drove it once and really liked it."
"As for the bride price, let’s forget it, the country doesn’t encourage taking bride prices now, we should follow the national call..."
Lin Xiamo seriously stated her requirements.
She even took the initiative to say no bride price was needed!
But that’s not the point.
The key was the car and house before that!
Jinjiang Bay is a famous luxury residence in Sanjiang City, a riverside large flat, the house price is around 50,000 per square meter.
A 246-square-meter house would cost about tens of millions totally.
The BYD u8 is a representative of domestic luxury cars, priced at 1.09 million!
That is to say,
Lin Xiamo directly raised the threshold of material conditions to the tens of millions level.
For Zhang Chaofan, this was naturally out of reach.
Although he is a university teacher and his family conditions are pretty good, he really couldn’t afford a mansion worth tens of millions.
Therefore, after hearing Lin Xiamo’s conditions, Zhang Chaofan, who was full of confidence just now, suddenly felt a bit awkward.
"Brother, have a cup of tea."
"Dad, you have a try too, see if it’s the pre-Qingming tea..."
Seeing the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Shen Qiushan held the tea tray and placed it on the coffee table, then poured two cups of tea, handing one to Zhang Chaofan and the other to Lin Moxuan.
Then, he poured a cup each for Wang Shulan and Chen Qingzhu.
"Thank you, Brother Shen."
Seeing Shen Qiushan stand up to ease the situation in time, Zhang Chaofan was quite grateful.
It’s just that calling Shen Qiushan "Brother Shen" always gave a sense of incongruity.
Because at 37, he looked much older, people would believe he was in his 40s.
While 38-year-old Shen Qiushan looked very young, people could believe he was 30.
"Dad, I forgot to give you this just now."
"I also have an ancient inkstone."
Shen Qiushan handed the bought ancient inkstone to Lin Moxuan, who loves calligraphy.
Sending an inkstone was indeed catering to his taste.
As expected.
When Lin Moxuan received the ancient inkstone from Shen Qiushan, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
Especially since Shen Qiushan had just resolved a small awkwardness at the matchmaking meeting.
Lin Moxuan suddenly felt that Shen Qiushan, the son-in-law, seemed not as bad as he had imagined.
Especially today’s performance, could be described as remarkable!
A thought suddenly popped into his head.
This is much better than Zhang Chaofan!
And after this thought appeared in his mind, it immediately gave Lin Moxuan a shock.
How could I compare him with Xiaozhang!
After all, Xiaozhang is unmarried and childless.
And he is a genuine overseas returnee!
"Momo, I remember you didn’t seem to have any hard requirements for houses and cars before!"
"The houses in Jinjiang Bay are expensive, not many people can afford to buy there."
At this time, Wang Shulan, the matchmaker, stood up.
If the material conditions couldn’t be negotiated, there would be no more to talk about afterward.
"Aunt Wang, I recently reflected that the reason why I haven’t found a suitable partner."
"Is because I didn’t have a clear standard, so I couldn’t make a judgment."
"Now that I have clarified my standard, I just want to find it according to this standard..."
Lin Xiamo gave her reason.
"Is that so."
Wang Shulan frowned slightly: "But, isn’t this standard a bit too high?"
"Maybe."
Lin Xiamo shrugged lightly: "But I haven’t planned to lower the standard for now."
Upon hearing this, Wang Shulan subconsciously turned to glance at Zhang Chaofan, who could only helplessly shake his head.
Obviously, Zhang Chaofan couldn’t meet these material conditions.
"Xiaozhang, you don’t have to listen to Momo’s nonsense."
"The two of you get to know each other first, leave the material situation aside for now, the important thing is whether the personalities match."
Seeing that this date was about to end without a result, Lin Moxuan stood up.
"Yes, yes, yes."
"I think so too!"
Wang Shulan nodded repeatedly.
"Sister Wang, Xiaozhang, don’t leave yet, stay for a meal together!"
Lin Moxuan conveniently extended an invitation.
"Alright, then we’ll be disturbing you!"
Wang Shulan quickly agreed, then winked at Zhang Chaofan.
"Uncle Lin, Aunt Chen, then we’ll be imposing on you."
Zhang Chaofan hurriedly said politely.
