Talking with my girlfriend about a bride price—she wants 300,000 yuan. I said, “Sure, but I have a condition.” She asked, “What condition?” I said, “I’ll give this 300,000 yuan to your parents, and then your parents will go and buy your younger brother a house. After your younger brother gets married, his wife will move in. Then your parents will go to take care of your younger brother’s children. You’ll go back and stay in the guest room during festivals and holidays. By then, you’ll be 30 years old. If you want to get divorced, you won’t have the courage. If you want to cry, you won’t have anywhere to do it. Just think about whether this 300,000 yuan is worth it.”
