Chapter 455 Dowry
Mother Gu quickly replied, "July 25th is indeed a good day. There is still more than a month left, which is enough time to meet the in-laws, get engaged, and prepare for the wedding banquet."
"Qianqian, what do you think? When can we meet our in-laws? Let's sit down together and discuss it."
Lin Yunxi quickly stopped her parents-in-law: "Mom and Dad, next month is too urgent. We still have to consider Qing Shuo and Qian Qian's opinions."
Zhao Qian seemed to be hesitant to speak when she heard this. She calmed herself down and smiled at her boyfriend who looked worried.
He said, "Uncle and aunt, grandpa and grandma, I can decide my own marriage, and there is no need to meet my in-laws."
Since Lin Yunxi helped Zhao Qian last time, he hasn't paid any attention to the Zhao family's affairs.
Judging from Zhao Qian’s reaction, a lot of things must have happened afterwards.
She explained to Mr. and Mrs. Gu, "Mom and Dad, since Qianqian said so, let's listen to Qianqian."
Then he looked at Zhao Qian and said, "Not all parents in this world love their children. Qianqian, you are a sensible person. From now on, our family will be both your parents' home and your husband's home."
After hearing what Lin Yunxi said, Gu's father and mother immediately understood what was going on.
Both children are pitiful and have no affinity with their parents.
"Your aunt is right. We will also be your family from now on. If Qing Shuo makes you angry, just come and find grandma."
"Thank you, grandma."
Zhao Qian choked up a little. How could she have deserved to find such a considerate and loving boyfriend, and to have such loving and respectful in-laws.
"Since Grandpa has already found an auspicious date, it's fine to set the wedding date for next month. You don't have many relatives here, so it can save a lot of trouble."
"That's good. You and Qing Shuo are not young anymore. You don't have to worry about the wedding. Just focus on being the most beautiful bride." Lin Yunxi took Zhao Qian's hand and comforted her.
"Yeah, thank you, auntie."
In the evening, Zhao Qian had finished washing up and was ready to go to bed, but Fang Qingshuo came over.
"A Shuo, why are you here so late?" Zhao Qian asked with some confusion.
But Fang Qingshuo took out a booklet from his pocket with a smile on his face and stuffed it into Zhao Qian's hand without saying anything.
"This is the betrothal gift and dowry that your aunt and I gave you. I was afraid that you would be unhappy if I mentioned the things at home at noon, so I came here as soon as I decided."
"Dowry?" Zhao Qian was a little unbelievable, she asked quickly.
"I can't accept this. I have earned some money from work in the past few years, and I have two small courtyards. It can be used as a dowry."
"Then I can't make the decision. Auntie clearly said it's for you, so I definitely can't refuse."
"And my aunt likes you very much. After you left, she started to find someone to arrange the following procedures and the wedding, saying that she wanted you to marry in with great fanfare."
"If we refuse, wouldn't that be a betrayal of Auntie's kindness?"
In addition to feeling embarrassed, Zhao Qian was more touched. After hearing her boyfriend say this, she no longer insisted on refusing.
She randomly opened the betrothal gift booklet: 800,000 yuan in cash, 10 sets of gold jewelry, 5 sets of jade jewelry, 5 sets of jade jewelry, and 5 sets of diamond jewelry;
Three villas in Xiheyuan, three courtyard houses, a car, and a long list of gift cakes, wine and other betrothal gifts.
Not to mention the jewelry, house and car behind it, the 800,000 in cash alone is unique.
Nowadays, if other families can give thousands of yuan to a man to marry a daughter-in-law, they are considered wealthy. I didn’t expect the Gu family to give 800,000 yuan directly.
Not to mention Beijing, in the whole of China, it is estimated that no one or family can match such a generous betrothal gift.
Add to that three villas, three courtyard houses, and a car, and the total value of these is estimated to be over one million.
Not to mention that there are so many sets of jewelry, these are priceless treasures that cannot be measured by price.
"This, this is too much." Zhao Qian was so shocked that she could hardly hold the book in her hand and almost dropped it on the table.
Fang Qingshuo quickly helped the man up and explained with a smile: "These are all gifts from Auntie to us, we just need to keep them."
"Besides that, Auntie is planning to tidy up the yard where I live now. After you marry in, you can live anywhere you want."
Although Fang Qingshuo's surname is Fang, he has been integrated into the Gu family over the years and is a true member of the Gu family.
In the hearts of Gu's father and mother, he is the eldest grandson; in the hearts of Lin Yunxi and Gu Zheng, he is the eldest son; in the hearts of Yanyan, Yueyue and the quadruplets, he is the eldest brother.
Gu Zheng and Lin Yunxi are not like traditional parents who love without expressing it. On the contrary, their love for their children is expressed in words and actions.
Therefore, this betrothal gift is exactly the love and expectation of parents for their children. Fang Qingshuo knew it very well, and he went on to explain.
"Ever since I came to the Gu family, I have regarded Uncle and Aunt Gu as my parents. After you marry here, we will be filial to Uncle and Aunt together."
Zhao Qian nodded quickly: "Well, you are right, let's be filial to uncle and aunt together in the future."
Seeing that it was getting late, Fang Qingshuo got up and went home. They hadn't held their wedding yet, and it would be embarrassing if someone saw them.
