The "Rich dad, Poor dad" serial of books are good to read. There is one main idea I ;RYKqUE

One thing I don't understand and wish you can think it again, why you insist selling the x]M1UBnMN
house your MM purchased? Do you know there are thousands of foreign investors LdL\B0^l
each year from all of the world especially the USA to invest in China's real estate? %stktVDAP
And the RMB is still in appreciation, the trend will go on for a while. Keep the property DKH9

If you are not happy that the house is under your MM's Mom's name, you can try to Cm>F5$l{
persuade your MM to add her name on it, so the house will be indirectly owned by you woKdI)f$
as well after your marriage. As to the request that you pay off the mortgage for that 4

house, if you have that much money, you just don't feel comfortable to pay it at once ^u74WN
how about asking your MM to open a joint account in both of you/MM's names and YG|T;/-
deposit the money into it? By doing this, you can show your highest sincerity to MM .})8gL7V
and extend the solid proof that you are not out of money. You can earn the interest

close the joint account and exchange the money back to whatever currency at that R&p5 3n

Anyway, keep your relationship with your MM, I don't think you should explore too N"{o3QmA
much on why her family ask this or ask that, honestly ask yourself, if you love her or $P~ a
not. And DO keep on your writing, you have the talent.
