He didn't plan to buy a sewing machine. Even if he bought it, Feng Jiaojiao probably wouldn't be able to use it. In that case, he decided to buy a slightly better watch.
Feng Jiaojiao raised her wrist, and the watch sparkled under the light, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
"We've almost finished buying everything, let's go back." An Jianjun bought all the wedding candies, melon seeds, peanuts and various wedding supplies.
Now the betrothal gifts for Feng Jiaojiao have been bought.
"You bought so many things for me, aren't you afraid that your mother will scold you?" Feng Jiaojiao glanced at An Jianjun.
She didn't believe that An's mother would agree to give her such a large betrothal gift.
"The betrothal gift I give you is based on the standard of my fourth brother's wife. It's one hundred yuan plus a set of clothes. I'll make up the rest myself. No one will say anything."
An's mother gave all the allowances she had saved over the years to herself. Except for the five dollars that she received every month, she did not take a penny more and put it all into a passbook for him.
An Jianjun served in the army for eight years. At the beginning, his allowance was not much, only six yuan. Later, as he accumulated more and more military medals and his position became higher and higher, his allowance increased.
There was originally 3,200 yuan in the passbook, which was already a huge sum of money.
An Jianjun took out 800 yuan, and there was still 2,400 yuan in his passbook.
He gave An's mother three hundred yuan to prepare the banquet, took five hundred yuan for himself, and took Feng Jiaojiao out to buy things. Now he has almost spent it all.
Feng Jiaojiao thought to herself, he is indeed the man that the heroine has always been thinking about, he is really good, at least he is really willing to spend money on his wife.
The two of them returned to An's home carrying large and small bags.
"Grandma, Third Uncle and Third Aunt are back!" The children in the yard cheered. This was their Third Aunt, so beautiful.
When Feng Jiaojiao saw so many little girls surrounding her, she was a little at a loss.
Good father An Jianjun reacted quickly and grabbed a handful of candy. "Da Ya, Er Ya, you two take some candy and share it with your brothers and sisters."
"Oh, time to eat candy!" Children's happiness is simple. When they have candy, they don't care about anything else.
"Oh, please don't eat all the candies. There won't be enough for the banquet." Mother An felt distressed when she saw her son grab such a handful of candies.
This matter has not been done yet. It won’t be too late to share the leftovers with the children after the banquet.
"Mom, I bought a lot, it will definitely be enough." An Jianjun specially bought three more kilograms of candy.
"Hello, auntie." Feng Jiaojiao felt it was not good not to greet her future mother-in-law, so after thinking about it, she decided to call her auntie.
"Hey, sister-in-law, why are you calling me aunt? In two days you will be a member of our An family. It doesn't matter whether you call me aunt sooner or later. You might as well change your name now." Mrs. An had just snatched a piece of candy from her eldest daughter and couldn't help but come out to refresh her sense of existence.
"You greedy lazy bastard, are you snatching food from the kids again? Hurry up and cook!"
An's mother coaxed her eldest daughter-in-law into submission.
"Jiaojiao, don't listen to her. You can call me whatever you want. Mom doesn't mind." An's mother didn't mind those two days.
Feng Jiaojiao: “…”
"Hey, let's go in and take a look. Your two sisters-in-law and I have cleaned the house. Are you satisfied?" Mother An took Feng Jiaojiao and went into An Jianjun's room.
The house had changed at this time. The windows were clean and bright, and the glass was covered with festive window grilles.
The quilts and mattresses for the wedding have been sewn, and the furniture was made when the fourth brother got married. The third brother can only come back once during the Chinese New Year in recent years, so the furniture is like new.
Fortunately, I was careful at that time, so this time An's mother is not in a hurry and everything is ready.
"Thank you, Mom. I like it very much." Feng Jiaojiao saw the sincerity of the An family and saw that they had prepared so much in such a short time.
Hearing Feng Jiaojiao's call of "Mom", An's mother smiled and said, "Well, as long as you like it, I'll give you the betrothal money right away, you can keep it."
After saying that, he handed a hundred yuan wrapped in red paper to Feng Jiaojiao.
Feng Jiaojiao took it and said, "Thank you, mother."
