Chapter 322 What are the requirements?

When Chen Yi returned home, she saw the house was bustling with activity as soon as she entered the door.

It seems that everyone came back from get off work early. She was delayed by something, so she came back late.

The yard was filled with the aroma of vegetables, and many children around were looking towards the yard.

"Everyone is here." She greeted them with a smile as she entered the room.

Fang Xiaoli still felt a little embarrassed when she saw her. After all, she was a grown-up girl, so it was normal.

"Chen Yi, I heard that you just came back from a business trip yesterday." She said with a smile.

"Yeah." Chen Yi nodded and said, "My job at the factory is to go on inspections. How have you been recently? I haven't seen you for a long time."

During this period, she was in confinement and then returned to work, so she really had no time to see them.

Fang Xiaoli and Ma Li came during the confinement period, but they didn't go into the house at that time. Although she thought it was okay, they didn't go into the house to take a look.

Fang Xiaoli replied: "I'm just busy doing nothing. Ma Li said yesterday that she wanted to come and see you, but their department has been very busy recently, so it will probably be the end of the month."

As the end of the year approaches, all factories become busy. Those with insufficient performance have to improve their performance, after all, the purchasing department also has tasks to do.

Hearing this, Chen Yi nodded, and everyone chatted together and talked about other things.

He Shuyun was busy in the kitchen, and both of them went to help, but were kicked out.

"Everyone go inside. Xiaoli is here today, so I have to cook for myself." She smiled and drove them out, closing the kitchen door.

She could still handle the food for several people, so Chen Yi didn't force it and turned around to lead people into the house.

Wang Jianjun sat next to him without saying a word. From his expression, he seemed fine, but he probably just didn't want to talk. It might be because they were getting married soon and wanted to confirm their relationship.

When the meal was ready, He Mingcheng also rushed back. He didn't have to pick up the children today, so he came back quickly.

Ever since He Jiaxin went to daycare, the job of picking up the child fell on Wang Jinxi.

Because He Mingcheng sometimes worked overtime and was not sure when he would be home, Wang Jinxi would pick him up every day.

If he wants to send the child, He Mingcheng can just take him to work, so it’s not a big deal.

Everyone was having a great time at the dinner table. After all, it was a good thing, and the wedding date was about to be set.

After dinner, everyone sat on chairs and drank water. He Shuyun asked, "Xiao Li, does your family have any requirements for marriage? Let's discuss it first. When we meet your parents again, we can be prepared."

She asked Fang Xiaoli in advance because she was afraid of meeting the other party's parents. The other party's requirements were too high and she couldn't do it.

It wouldn’t be nice to be too awkward at the dinner table, so it’s better to understand it in advance so you can be mentally prepared.

If the requirements are high, she will think about what to do.

Hearing this, Fang Xiaoli blushed slightly. After all, she was a grown girl and felt embarrassed to talk about marriage.

But people were asking about serious matters, so she hesitated and said, "It's the same as other families, it's just buying some new things."

It's the same as not saying anything.

Chen Yi looked at her, "Xiao Li, we are not strangers. Just tell me what you want so that my aunt can be prepared. We are getting married soon, and these are all things that should be prepared. You don't have to be embarrassed."

After saying this, He Shuyun couldn't help but nodded. There were some things she couldn't say directly, but it was different for Chen Yi. They had a good relationship, so she could say anything.

Fang Xiaoli thought for a moment and said, "A lady's watch, a bicycle, and a clock. These will be enough. I'm not very good at making clothes, so forget about the sewing machine."

In fact, these things are all prepared normally. The sewing machine is the most expensive one here except for the bicycle.

A sewing machine costs about 200 yuan, depending on the brand. A bicycle costs about 150 yuan, and the price and weight of each brand are different.

People haven't determined what it must be like, so there's a lot of wiggle room.

But Wang Jianjun next to him turned pale. Even if they chose the cheap ones, it would still cost about 500 yuan, not including the betrothal money.

He had already used up all his savings to buy a house for his marriage, so how could he have the money to buy these things?

He hesitated, but in the end said nothing.

He Shuyun nodded, "Okay, then go back and ask your parents when you have time so we can meet up or something."

What we have heard now is only Fang Xiaoli’s request, and we haven’t heard whether her family has any other requests.

Therefore, some things must be discussed by both parents, which is also a sign of mutual respect.

Fang Xiaoli nodded and agreed. It was getting late, so she prepared to go home.

"Jianjun, send Xiaoli home." He Shuyun urged him to send her home.

Wang Jianjun nodded, stood up and followed him out.

He didn't have a bicycle, so he rode He Mingcheng's bicycle to take Fang Xiaoli home.

It was very cold on the way back. Gusts of cold wind blew past, and Fang Xiaoli in the back seat couldn't help but shrink her neck.

She was still sitting in the back, so you can imagine how cold Wang Jianjun was sitting in the front.

"Brother Jianjun, why don't we walk? You're quite cold too." She suggested from behind.

There is no wind when you stop, but the wind is quite strong when you ride a bike.

Wang Jianjun thought about it and agreed, so they stopped walking.

We're almost there, so it's a good time to chat.

He looked at the person next to him, stopped and said, "Xiao Li, I, I want to tell you something."

He actually shouldn't have said these words, but after thinking about it a lot, he felt that he should say them.

Seeing him so hesitant, Fang Xiaoli smiled generously and said, "Brother Jianjun, just tell me what you want to say. We are not strangers."

At the end of her speech, she blushed a little, feeling really embarrassed.

But Wang Jianjun in front of him was relieved when he heard this, and said, "Then I'll tell you, there's actually no need to buy a bicycle for our wedding, since you already have a car. You don't need a watch if you've bought a clock, right?"

He felt a little uneasy, but it was useless to think about it, and he had already said it anyway...

Hearing this, Fang Xiaoli frowned and looked at him, asking, "What do you mean? Aren't these things necessary for a wedding? Besides, I do have a bicycle, but you don't."

"The house you bought is so far from the car factory. Do you take the bus every day? Or do you want to walk to work?"

There is no need to take the bus if it is too far away, and the transportation fee will be quite high every month.

After all the calculations, it is actually more convenient to have a bicycle. She really can't understand why all these are clearly for Wang Jianjun, but this guy doesn't want to buy anything.

In order to take into account their family conditions, she had already taken the initiative to say that they didn't want a sewing machine, otherwise it would be another huge expense.

But not only did he not appreciate it, he also refused to buy anything else I wanted.

What was going on? The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

Thanks for the reward from Chami
