My son got married, and the bride's family was very generous. They gave a trap 3 million house and a luxury car as dowry. But who could have imagined that on the second day of the wedding, my son discovered that the house and car were both under the father-in-law's name, and the 880,000 savings were under the daughter-in-law's name. I was shocked, how could this happen...
My name is Wang Daming, 55 years old, a ordinary worker. I have a son named Wang Xiaohui, 28 years old, working as an engineer in a company. Last year, Xiaohui met a girl named Li Tingting, and they quickly fell in love.
Li Tingting's family is much better off than ours. Her father, Boss Li, is a successful entrepreneur with several trap houses and luxury cars. Although our family is not as well-off as theirs, Mr. and Mrs. Li are very satisfied with Xiao Hui. They think he is down-to-earth, hardworking, and ambitious.
This spring, Xiaohui got engaged with BTO. Boss Li was very generous and said he would give the young couple a trap 3 million house and a 500,000 car as dowry. My wife and I were shocked to hear that the bride's family was so wealthy.
Uncle Li, this is too precious, we dare not accept it." Xiaohui quickly declined.
Boss Li smiled and said, "It's okay. You young people are just starting to work, and having a good starting point is important. Besides, BTO is the pearl in our company, we can't treat her unfairly."
And so, amid the blessings of everyone, Xiaohui and BTO held a grand wedding. On the wedding day, the new house was renovated and looked brand new, with a shiny new car parked inside. Seeing my son looking so happy, I felt so delighted in my heart, thinking he really married a good wife.
However, on the second day of the wedding, things went wrong.
That morning, Xiao Hui eagerly took the house deed and car title, wanting to change the names to his own and BTO's. To his surprise, he was stunned to see that the owner of both the house and the car was Mr. Li!
Xiao Hui quickly called BTO: "Wife, do you know what's going on? Why are both the house and car in your father's name?"
BTO seemed to be prepared and calmly said, "Oh, my dad said to leave it like this for now and transfer it to us when we have children."
Xiaohui is a bit unhappy: "But wasn't this supposed to be given to us? Why is it put under your father's name?"
BTO's tone became a bit cold: "What do you mean? Don't you trust my father? Besides, the house and car were all paid for by my family. What are you unsatisfied with?"
Xiao Hui was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
In the evening, Xiaohui told me about this. I was also very surprised to hear it, feeling that something was not right. I asked him, "What about the 880,000 yuan deposit?"
"The deposit is under BTO's name," Xiaohui said.
I immediately felt a coldness in my heart. I thought the girl's family would be generous, but it turned out to be like this. I couldn't help saying, "Xiaohui, this is not right. You are husband and wife, and the property should be jointly owned. Now the house and car are owned by your father-in-law, and the deposit is owned by your wife. What are you?"
Xiao Hui also realized the seriousness of the problem, but didn't know what to do. Hesitantly, he said, "Dad, should I have a good talk with BTO?"
