Old Mrs. Ye was mentally prepared for this.

After all, the Zhou family is well-off and Miss Zhou is a good girl.

Even if the betrothal gift is higher, it should be no problem to find a few sons to make up the difference.

Zhou's mother continued, "As for the betrothal gifts, we don't have too many requirements. Just follow the customs of the capital."

When Mrs. Ye heard this, she could hardly believe her ears. Could it be so smooth?

Then I heard Zhou's mother come.

"but……"

Old Mrs. Ye's heart, which had not yet settled down, suddenly rose again, and she concentrated on listening to what Zhou's mother was going to say next.

"Firstly, I only have this one daughter in my family, and I've spoiled her since she was little. I really don't want her to marry someone else.

"Secondly, everyone in the village knows about your son Silang's past. I'm afraid my daughter will hear gossip in the village."

Hearing this, Old Lady Ye quickly said, "The fourth son is working in the capital. When the two children grow up, they will naturally live in the capital. At most, they will go back to their hometown to stay for a day or two during the holidays. Please rest assured."

Mother Zhou smiled slightly when she heard this and said, "With your words, I feel relieved.

"But since you said you live in Beijing, I'd like to ask, where are you planning to buy a house?"

“…” Old Mrs. Ye was stunned by this question.

Why are we suddenly talking about buying a house?

Although I don’t know how houses in Beijing are sold, I can tell by thinking about it that not everyone can afford to buy a house in Beijing.

If she wants to buy it, it must be of similar location and size. How can she afford so much money?

Old Mrs. Ye was about to speak, but Boss Ye and Shao on her left and right pulled her clothes under the table to stop her from speaking.

Ye Laodao said, "We don't know much about houses in Beijing, but we can go and look at houses first. When we are satisfied, we can discuss it with your family. How about that?"

Hearing this, Brother Zhou said directly: "It's okay if you don't understand. I do know a little about this. I'll go with you to see it later."

These words sounded quite oppressive, as if forcing the Ye family to buy a house as soon as possible.

But for the sake of Ye Lao Si's marriage, Old Lady Ye and Old Da Ye still endured it.

But the Shao family felt that they could not allow the Zhou family to be so aggressive.

If you give in this time, won’t you be at a disadvantage everywhere in the future?

So she smiled and said, "There's no need to trouble Brother Zhou. I'll ask Qingshan to ask his colleagues first.

“As for me, the area west of my house is pretty good.

"It's right between the Imperial Guards and the General's Mansion. It will be convenient for us to visit each other in the future. It's also close for the fourth brother to go on duty. The most important thing is that this area has good security and it's a safe place to live, right?"

After hearing what Shao said, the Zhou family remembered that there was a general's wife present.

The main reason is that the Ye family and the Shaw Group are too low-key, so they almost forgot the identity of the Shaw Group.

Upon hearing this, Brother Zhou immediately chuckled and said, "It would be best if you have your own connections. I'm just offering a suggestion."

Boss Ye understood Shao's intention and followed up, "That area is indeed good. My father-in-law's family also lives there. We can take care of each other in the future.

"I remember that Mr. Cen also has properties nearby. I think he's quite familiar with the area. When I get home, I'll ask around for the fourth son."

"Mr. Cen?" When Brother Zhou heard the name and remembered Mrs. Ye's identity, he immediately asked, "But is that Mr. Cen, the royal chef? Is Madam You also acquainted with him?"

"Mr. Cen is my wife's grandfather."

The Zhou family was immediately shocked again.

What exactly is the identity of the Ye family? They are too secretive, aren't they?

After hearing the Ye family say they would go to see the house, and being shocked by Shao and Boss Ye one after another, the Zhou family did not make any other requests, but took the initiative to talk about their own situation.

"My family started out in the fabric and silk business. After years of hard work, we opened several silk shops in Beijing, and our lives have become much more comfortable.

“We are the only two children.

"Her eldest brother has already started a family and has his own business, so we don't need to worry too much about him.

"So when our only daughter gets married, we will definitely not be stingy with the dowry."

When she heard that the Zhou family ran a silk and satin shop, Old Lady Ye immediately said, "I only knew that your family was in business before, but today I just found out that you actually run a silk and satin shop.

"It just so happens that his second sister-in-law makes clothes. Maybe we can cooperate in the future."

Upon hearing this, Father Zhou thought to himself that this old lady Ye was indeed a country woman with little knowledge.

We have such a big business, we can't just cooperate with any random clothing maker!

But Zhou's mother felt that the Ye family had always been very kind, and not wanting to embarrass Old Madam Ye, she said, "That's great! I wonder which clothing store Second Sister-in-law Ye works for? Maybe she actually has business dealings with my family!"

Old Madam Ye said, “She doesn’t have a ready-made clothing store, she just makes clothes for people at home.

“It turns out that they all took business in the capital and returned to the village to do it.

"It's because the dress I made for the Queen recently was so popular that I've hired several more embroiderers to work day and night at home making dresses for people!"

"You mean making clothes for the queen..." Zhou's mother asked in surprise, "Could it be the dress you made for Queen Beatrice?"

Shao immediately said, "That's right, that dress was made by my second sister-in-law, and even the emperor praised it highly!"
