Chapter 525 Gift
Mei Dafeng didn't expect that she could get a dowry if she chose to marry Chu Dashan.
Three hundred dollars! You can buy a bedroom in Kyoto.
Chu Dashan was very excited.
"Let the children come over tomorrow! From now on, I'll have sons. Three sons! I'm so happy! Don't worry, raising them won't be a problem. Once my leg heals, I'll find a job and we'll raise them together."
Mei Dafeng couldn't help wiping away tears. "You're over sixty, how can I let you go back to work? Our combined monthly salary is only forty-five yuan! It's more than enough for the future! Besides, the children can use their after-school hours to take on matchbox pasting jobs, which can help supplement the family income."
"The children don't object to you marrying me, right? I'm just an old man..."
"You're not an old man, you're the father who feeds them. My children never objected to me getting married, and they even wanted to help me find a reliable man, but no single man was willing to marry me. Those men were discouraged by the sight of my three children."
They talked a lot until 10:30 in the evening. Chu Dashan suggested to take a rest first, considering that Dafeng had to get up early for work the next day.
In order to let Dafeng sleep well, Chu Dashan planned not to drink water or go to the toilet at night.
Unfortunately, I still woke up because of the urge to urinate at around four in the morning.
He reached the chamber pot under the bed, relieved himself, and was about to slowly put the pot back on the floor.
Dafeng woke up, quickly got up, took the urinal, took it out to empty it, washed herself, and put it under the bed.
He went out again with a basin, brought in water, and helped Chu Dashan wash his hands and dry them.
He poured hot water into the enamel pot and served Chu Dashan a drink before lying down again.
Chu Dashan closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
At around five in the morning, Mei Dafeng quietly got up and went home to make breakfast.
By the way, wake up the children and tell them that they are going to the hospital to find their father tonight.
When the children heard that Chu Dashan was willing to give all his pension to their mother and also give a betrothal gift, they were happy for her. In all the years that her mother had been single, no man had dared to make such a promise.
Even though Chu Dashan is old, it doesn’t matter as long as he is good to their mother.
They knew that their mother had had a very hard life in recent years, and they would rather she get married than sell blood again.
When Chu Dashan woke up, fragrant egg pancakes and millet and red date porridge were already placed on the bedside table.
Mei Dafeng served him breakfast and cleaned up before going to work.
After a while, Mu Qinlao came to the ward.
Chu Dashan looked very happy, "Qinlao, I want to share the good news with you."
Mu Qinlao asked cheerfully, "What good news? You look so bright and sunny. Is it related to your lifelong event?"
"That's right. Dafeng agreed to marry me. The children will come to recognize their father tonight. Please help me get 500 yuan."
"Why are you withdrawing so much money?"
"Give Dafeng three hundred yuan as a betrothal gift, and the remaining two hundred yuan, you help me buy gifts for the four of them. Buy cloth and cotton, four cans of malted milk, three sets of school supplies, and..."
Chu Dashan said a lot.
Mu Qinlao took out a pen and paper and wrote down, "Are you sure you want to marry Mei Dafeng? You don't know her well. Aren't you afraid of being cheated?"
Chu Dashan shook his head. "Even if I'm cheated, I'm happy with it. Oh, and I'll have to trouble you to go to the marriage agency and get my information back."
"Okay. Once I buy what you want, I'll go get your information."
"Go quickly! I have medical staff here."
"good."
Before Mu Qinlao leaves, he needs to go back to Chenze's house to get Chu Dashan's passbook.
The passbook is in his luggage bag...
