Many people think it's romantic when they are in love, but when it comes to marriage, it's completely different. Marriage is built on a certain material basis. When it comes to marriage, we can't help but mention the topic of bride price. Some girls who insist on true love will say, why do you want a bride price when you get married? That is an ancient marriage custom. We both really love each other, so we won't be like others. I'd rather marry my husband's family naked.
However, are those girls who don't want the bride price really happy after marriage?
When I got together with my two girlfriends the other day, Xiao Xia happily invited us to her house. She said that she had bought a new house. The house is located in the bustling and famous business district of this city, and it is also a famous school district. We all want to know how she and her husband can afford such a nice house after less than a year of marriage.
Xiao Xia said mysteriously that when she got married, her husband's family gave her a large dowry. In fact, their parents did not ask for the money, but gave the bride price to the young couple after marriage. Parents said that the money was a bride price for their daughter. They just got married and don't have much savings. The money was used as a guarantee for their family.
My in-laws heard that the bride price was given to the husband and wife intact, and they added a sum of money to let the husband and wife buy a house and move out alone. Xiao Xia and her husband bought a three-bedroom house with a small amount of savings under the sponsorship of their parents. The most important thing is that her name is added to the real estate license. My other friend and I were envious after listening to it.

My other friend, Xiao Jiang, sighed after hearing what Xiao Xia said. If I had asked my in-laws for a bride price, I wouldn't be in this predicament. ? It turned out that Xiao Jiang fell in love with her husband in college and got married not long after graduation.
She believes in her pure love and doesn't want to be bound by the world. Considering that my boyfriend's parents' home is in the suburbs, I am afraid of causing financial burden to my future husband-in-law, so after talking with my parents, I didn't ask my husband-in-law for a bride price, and I didn't even get married with an ordinary ring.
I thought my sincerity could win the respect of my husband's family, but it turned out to be the opposite. My mother-in-law has been telling outsiders that she didn't spend a penny to marry this daughter-in-law. Who will make her son excellent? In fact, Xiaojiang's husband is just a small clerk in an advertising company. After marriage, the husband and wife have been living in the husband's two-bedroom apartment. Nowadays, inconvenience is just one of them. What is more difficult is that my mother-in-law never respects herself, and her contradictions are constant, making life more and more difficult.

Xiao Xia gave a bride price to her husband's family before marriage, and her life was booming. She also changed her new house in the city center. Xiao Jiang doesn't want a bride price, but she is despised by her husband's family and lives in a remote suburb. The marriage custom of bride price has been circulating for so long, and there is naturally a reason for its existence.
Many girls think it's for themselves, but in fact they ignore that the bride price has another meaning. Daughter is a little cotton-padded jacket that parents care about. As soon as she got married, she lived in someone else's house. Which woman's parents are not sad?
The bride price is a gesture and a respect for comforting the woman's parents. It doesn't mean how much bride price must be paid to save face, but it can be given to the woman according to local customs and the actual economic ability of the family.
In Naked Marriage, Liu Yiyang (played by the article) said,? I have no car, no money, no house and no diamond ring, but I have a heart to accompany you to your old age. ? The vows of eternal love are always touching, and the cruel reality in marriage can never beat the vows we have said.
Appropriate bride price can actually make the husband's family pay more attention to you, rather than despise you. Marriage is a reality. Whether a woman wants a bride price before marriage actually reflects her state after marriage.
If a man really meets a girl who doesn't want a bride price, he must treat his parents sincerely, instead of feeling cheap, so that his married life can be happier. The difference between asking for a bride price and not asking for a bride price can be seen from the family status in the husband's family after marriage. Family status? These four words have explained everything. Sometimes, women's? Sensible? Wrong payment, only injustice.
