After a brief exchange of politeness, my aunt turned the topic back to business.

"We are all farmers, we are straightforward, I will say whatever I want to say. Accountant Wang, what do you think about the two children's marriage, the gifts and furniture, etc.?"

Everyone in the Wang family was smiling, but Wang Fang blushed and lowered her head.

"Just follow the general trend. We are no worse than others, but we also don't try to be too high-profile. Just about enough is fine. I will give the same dowry as the betrothal gifts you give, so that the young couple will have more money in their hands," Accountant Wang said frankly.

Auntie couldn't stop smiling. The girl was easy to talk to. This marriage was a good one. "Mantun, Cuihua, how do you decide?"

Li Mantun and Liu Cuihua had already discussed it over the past few days and decided to give it as it should be given. They made a lot of money from selling vegetables before the New Year, and the bun shop also made a lot of money, so they were not so tight on money.

"Nowadays, the maximum amount of betrothal gifts is 300 yuan. Although our Xingyuan has not gotten married, his reputation is not good either. If you don't mind, we can't play dumb. We will give Wang Fang a betrothal gift of 100 yuan, and in return, we will get a room in the city with furniture and everything prepared. We will also keep a room for them at home to stay in during the holidays. If Wang Fang doesn't mind, she will help out in the steamed bun shop in a few days, and pay ten yuan a month. The young couple will live in the city. What do you think?" Li Mantun said to the Wang family.

The Li family is so sincere, the Wang family must be very satisfied. That being said, don't offer too high a reward. If the other party gives a high reward, it means they think highly of their daughter, and their family will also have face. She can also work in the city, which will make them even more satisfied.

"Very good, very good, this is very good. Our family has no objection. We will also give a dowry of 100 yuan." Accountant Wang was very satisfied. He thought the bride price was only about 300 yuan, and the dowry he prepared was also 300 yuan. Now that the Li family gave more, his dowry also increased. He was happy to give him more.

The smiles on the Wang family's faces deepened a lot. Their daughter found a good family with good conditions and reasonable business.

Xiulan, who was standing nearby watching the fun, glanced at her husband Xinghu. She only gave him a dowry of ten yuan when they got married, which was used to make two sets of clothes and two sets of bedding, and that was all. Her father-in-law gave her so much when they got married, but he still let his wife run the bun shop. Xiulan immediately felt unbalanced.

Xinghu shook off Xiulan's hand. He had been married for several years. The bride price back then was incomparable to that of today. It was not low at that time. Besides, his family was in financial difficulty at that time, which was incomparable to that of today.

He is the eldest son and all the good things in the family go to him. He was the one who built the bun shop. And Liu Cuihua even gave them several hundred dollars. How could he have the face to complain?

Xiulan stomped her feet in anger, and ran into the house with her child, slamming the door.

Liu Cuihua's eyelids twitched. If it wasn't the wrong occasion, she would have started scolding immediately.

The Wang family members were all chatting with the old man and the old lady with a smile, as if they didn't hear anything.

The betrothal gift had been decided, and all that remained was for both parties to discuss the wedding date. Liu Cuihua was cooking in the kitchen, and Xiulan stayed in the house and didn't come out.

Liu Cuihua gritted her teeth and held back from cursing out loud.

Tian Qingqing looked at the situation and said, "Third brother, let me help you. It will take a long time for Auntie to do it herself."

The third brother glared at Xinghu. Qingqing hadn't gotten married yet. It was New Year's Day and she shouldn't have been in the kitchen. But what should we do now? We couldn't just watch. "Let's cook together."

Wang Fang told her mother, and her mother nodded and followed her out.

"Are you Qingqing?" Wang Fang greeted Tian Qingqing.

Tian Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "Yes, you know me."

"I heard Xingyuan say that when I saw you, I felt that you were me. My name is Wang Fang."

"I'll just call you Sister-in-law Wang Fang." Xingyuan is older than the third brother, so Tian Qingqing should call him sister-in-law.

Wang Fang blushed and nodded. She was already engaged, so it was right to call her sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law Wang Fang, I'm in the kitchen. Do you want to go to the toilet? It's over there." Tian Qingqing thought Wang Fang came out to go to the toilet.

"I'll help in the kitchen too, let's do it together"
