Seeing that Liu Jiaojiao was angry, Lin Wu quickly put down his chopsticks, put his arm around Liu Jiaojiao's shoulders, and gently coaxed her: "Jiaojiao, you are still pregnant, you can't get angry, it's not good for the baby."

Liu Jiaojiao snorted and turned her head to the side, but she still couldn't help complaining: "That money-loser actually wanted to get rid of us and live a good life on his own. No way!"

Lin Wu quickly comforted her, "Jiaojiao, don't worry. That little girl can't do anything. When she makes money, won't it belong to me?"

When Liu Jiaojiao heard this, she felt much better and smiled: "That's about right."

Seeing that she finally smiled, Lin Wu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to assure her, "Jiaojiao, just take care of your pregnancy. Mom and I will take care of the rest. From now on, all her money will be mine, and we can just wait to enjoy a peaceful life as a family."

Liu Jiaojiao was very happy to hear him say that, but she still said unforgivingly: "You'd better keep your word. If you can't, I will take the child and marry someone else!"

Lin Wu nodded repeatedly, patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Jiaojiao, that girl will definitely not dare to disobey my mother."

Lin Wu coaxed Liu Jiaojiao for a long time before he finally managed to calm her down.

As night fell, Li Cuifang returned home carrying the vegetables she had just bought. As soon as Lin Wu saw her, he rushed forward impatiently and held her hand tightly.

"Mom, I have great news to tell you!" he shouted excitedly.

Li Cuifang was confused by this sudden action: "What's the matter? What happened?"

Lin Wu's face was filled with joy: "You are going to be a grandmother!"

Li Cuifang was stunned at first, then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Really?" Then she quickly walked to Liu Jiaojiao and asked with concern: "Jiaojiao, are you pregnant?"

Liu Jiaojiao gently stroked her slightly bulging belly, smiled and nodded: "Yeah."

Li Cuifang couldn't help but say, "That's great, I'm going to have a grandson! Jiaojiao, just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you."

Seeing his mother so happy, Lin Wu took the opportunity to suggest: "Mom, Jiaojiao is pregnant now, we have to hurry up and arrange the wedding."

"Yes, yes, let's get married quickly!" Li Cuifang was so happy that she even put the issue of the bride price aside for the time being and couldn't wait to start preparing for the wedding.

However, at this moment, Lin Wu suddenly said, "Mom, Jiaojiao said that the betrothal gift is 300,000 yuan."

This sentence was like a basin of ice-cold water, which instantly extinguished the enthusiasm in Li Cuifang's heart and made her stunned.

"Jiaojiao is pregnant now, let's discuss the dowry." Li Cuifang was calculating in her mind. She thought that since Liu Jiaojiao was pregnant with Lin's child, she would definitely not marry anyone else, so there was no need to give such a large dowry.

"Jiaojiao, you see you're already pregnant. We have to get married quickly. Otherwise, when your belly gets bigger, people will gossip about you." Li Cuifang said to Liu Jiaojiao with pretended concern.

Liu Jiaojiao snorted angrily and poked Lin Wu beside her with her hand: "The betrothal gift must be 300,000 yuan, not a cent less!"

Unexpectedly, Li Cuifang stood up this time: "Our family will only give 20,000, no more!"

"Okay, then I won't get married!" Liu Jiaojiao stood up angrily and prepared to leave.

Lin Wu was now anxious, and quickly grabbed Liu Jiaojiao and said to her mother: "Mom, what are you doing? The betrothal gift was agreed upon before!"

"The situation is different now! She is pregnant now. Apart from our Lin family, who else would be willing to marry her?" Li Cuifang said proudly.

This made Liu Jiaojiao very angry, and she shouted at Lin Wu: "Lin Wu, do you think so too?"

After saying this, tears began to well up in Liu Jiaojiao's eyes.

"Okay, I'll go to the hospital and abort the baby now." Liu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth, immediately stood up and was about to leave with her bag.

Lin Wu quickly held her back and said anxiously, "Jiaojiao, don't be angry. My mom was just joking. Didn't we agree to get married?"

Li Cuifang was also anxious at this time. After all, Liu Jiaojiao was carrying her eldest grandson in her belly, and she couldn't let Liu Jiaojiao get beaten.

So she hurriedly stopped Liu Jiaojiao and said anxiously: "Jiaojiao, don't go to the hospital. Let's talk it over."

Seeing Li Cuifang's attitude, Liu Jiaojiao also stopped, but still said firmly: "I am pregnant, but I can have an abortion now."

"I only want 300,000 yuan for the betrothal gift. If you give me that, we'll get married. If you don't, I'll break up with Lin Wu."

"Don't, Jiaojiao!" Lin Wu panicked when he heard this. He held Liu Jiaojiao tightly and said to Li Cuifang, "Mom, please say something!"

"The one in Jiaojiao's belly is your grandson!"

Li Cuifang was at a loss. "Jiaojiao, don't leave. Three hundred thousand is three hundred thousand."

"That's better." Liu Jiaojiao sat back down.

If it were in the past, Li Cuifang could have gone to Ran Qi to ask for the 300,000 yuan, but now, even Ran Qi himself could not be found, so how could she get such a huge sum of money?

Li Cuifang was also worried: "My family really can't afford that much money right now."

Lin Wu quickly interrupted, "Mom, even though we don't have any money at home, we still have that money-loser! We can just ask her for it!"

Li Cuifang responded helplessly: "We can't contact anyone right now. That damn girl even blocked my phone number. How can we find her?"

The main reason why Liu Jiaojiao took a fancy to Lin Wu was because Ran Qi was wealthy, and Li Cuifang was very partial to her son and always felt that the money would eventually belong to them.

However, being unable to find someone is not a good thing these days.

Liu Jiaojiao's eyes widened, filled with anxiety and worry, and she asked anxiously, "Is there really no way out? Can't even you find anyone?"

Mother Lin sighed helplessly and shook her head, saying, "That damn girl even moved away. We sold the house we used to live in. We can't contact her at all."

"What? The house is sold?" Liu Jiaojiao just learned about this and was extremely shocked. Her face was full of astonishment. Then she asked again: "Where are you going to live in the future?"

Liu Jiaojiao said angrily, "We agreed before that we would live in the new house and your mother would live in your old house, but now we have no house left, what should we do?"

Hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao's face instantly turned gloomy, and she shouted angrily: "Lin Wu, I tell you, if we don't have a house, there's no point in getting married!"
