Chapter 374 Dowry
The whole family worked together, busy until the next afternoon, and the meat was finally processed.
Yan Qingfeng's vacation time was limited, so it was time to get down to business.
"Uncle, regarding the dowry, if you have any requirements, you can directly raise them. I will do my best to meet them within my ability."
When it came to discussing the dowry, Yan Qingfeng made his attitude clear in advance.
Sun Qishan stared at Yan Qingfeng for a long time, as if he wanted to see the truth of his words from his expression.
Yan Qingfeng also let him look at him without any guilt.
It was true that he wanted to marry Sun Huiguang, and it was also true that he loved her.
"What is your family's rule about the dowry?" Sun Qishan asked instead of answering.
Qingli Village is too remote in terms of geographical location, and the speed at which they are exposed to information from the outside world will also lag behind a lot.
The reason why Sun Qishan asked this was that he was well aware that he was out of touch with the news and didn't know what the market situation was like outside.
In fact, the Yan family had considered the betrothal gift very carefully and had considered all kinds of possibilities.
Yan Qingfeng didn't say much. He took out the betrothal gift content that had been discussed with his family in Beijing in advance from his pocket and handed it to Sun Qishan.
"Uncle, please take a look. If you are not satisfied, you can raise the issue."
Sun Qishan was confused. This was the first time in his life that he had seen a betrothal gift being discussed by throwing out a list directly.
Fortunately, he calmed down and reached out to take it.
He had studied with a teacher in his early years, so he could still recognize some words.
Sun Huiguang didn't expect that Yan Qingfeng would give her father a piece of paper with dense writing on it. Out of curiosity, she also took a look.
Good guy, I was shocked when I saw it.
The betrothal gift was 588, and one of the three-turn and one-ring watches was for Sun Huiguang, and the rest were for her family.
With Yan Qingfeng's military rank, he was also qualified to have a yard in the compound in Jingshi, and they lived in their own yard after getting married.
Not only did he equip Sun Huiguang with another set of three-turn and one-ring watches in Jingshi, but he also had a refrigerator, a TV, and a washing machine.
Sun Qishan and his friends had never seen these things in their lives, they only knew that they were very valuable and good things.
In addition, if Sun Huijun was willing, he could also arrange a job for him as a worker in the Mengxian Timber Factory.
After getting married, Sun Huiguang's household registration would be transferred to Jingshi.
"This, this is too exaggerated!"
After reading the gift list, Sun Huiguang burst into tears.
She knew the value of these things, but who could marry a daughter-in-law so extravagantly?
Even though she had lived in Beijing for all these years, she had never seen such a thing.
Yan Qingfeng had paid so much to marry her, and she was so moved that she didn't know how to express it.
Sun Huijun loved his little sister very much. He always felt that it was a loss for a college student to marry a soldier, and he was not optimistic about Yan Qingfeng.
But when he saw the expressions of his father and his sister, he suddenly lost his composure. Is it a big deal to have a few dirty money?
"What's written on it! Let me see!" As he said, he snatched the paper.
Looking at the front, he was still very satisfied, thinking that Yan Qingfeng was a kind-hearted guy.
But when he saw that he could arrange a job for him in Mengxian, he was no longer calm.
Who can negotiate a dowry and still have the advantage of being a brother-in-law?
Yan Yunxi didn't know what was written on the paper. Seeing the expressions of the family, she was also a little curious.
"Can you show it to me?"
Sun Huijun didn't make it difficult for her, and directly gave the paper to Yan Yunxi.
After reading it, Yan Yunxi's mouth twitched. Looking at this dowry list, you can tell that her parents are eager for Yan Qingfeng to get married on the spot and quickly solve this difficult problem.
But these things are... okay.
"I don't agree with Xiaojun's job." Sun Qishan was shocked before he raised his objection.
"You think the timber factory is not a good place to work? Why don't I look for other units?"
Yan Qingfeng immediately became nervous, but fortunately he still has some connections in Mengxian. If it doesn't work, he can contact another person, or look at the steel factory or machinery factory.
Sun Qishan knew that Yan Qingfeng had misunderstood and shook his head, "No, my son can't leave me."
He has three children in total. The eldest daughter has been married for a long time. Now if the youngest daughter also gets married, he will only have his son.
The elderly hope to have someone to rely on in their old age. Seeing that the only son they can rely on is now going to be arranged in the county. If
his son left, his daughter-in-law would definitely follow him. What would he and his wife do?
Unless they were taken to the county to live with their son.
This sudden problem caught Yan Qingfeng off guard.
If Sun Huijun went to work in the county, he would definitely live in a dormitory, and there would be no way to accommodate the two elderly people.
It was also his fault for not considering it carefully in advance.
Seeing that things were a bit stuck here, Yan Qingfeng was a little scratching his head. The key was that he had no experience in this kind of thing!
Helplessly, he cast a look at Yan Yunxi for help.
At this time, Sun Huiguang was also a little anxious. She didn't want to lose Yan Qingfeng because of her brother's job.
Just when she was about to speak and wanted to say that her brother's job would be gone, she was glared at by her father and swallowed the words back.
Seeing this, Yan Yunxi sneered silently.
She really underestimated this old man Sun. She
originally thought that Sun Huiguang might not have many opportunities to come back after marrying to Beijing, and she would not be able to fulfill her filial duties to her parents. She felt a little guilty.
Why should she feel guilty now? This old man is just selling his daughter in another way.
She worked for Sun Huijun in the hope of improving his family's living conditions. Since they wanted to sell their daughter, she might as well help.
Anyway, with Sun Huiguang's conditions, it was worth it to "buy" her at this price.
So Yan Yunxi continued to add, "This problem is easy to solve. We can buy you a house in Mengxian, and you two old people can live with your son."
At this point, Yan Yunxi paused and looked at Sun Qishan's reaction.
Sure enough, as she expected, the old man was satisfied.
So Yan Yunxi continued,
"You also know that my brother's job is very special. It is not easy for our relatives in Beijing to see him. In addition, Sun Huiguang's current work also has a lot of things to do, and he is too busy to finish it. He may not have many opportunities to come back to visit you in the future.
So you have a house in the county, and your son also has a stable job. Life will be much more convenient than in this village.
It can also make up for the regret that they can't come back to fulfill their filial piety to you."
Well, if Sun Huiguang is not busy, she will find ways to increase her workload, anyway, so that she has no time to come back to visit relatives.
After listening to this, Yan Qingfeng immediately turned around and looked at Yan Yunxi. Although he admitted that the betrothal gift was a bit too much.
But that was just a thought, not to really buy their daughter away and not come back in the future.
Why did his sister suddenly say that?
Sun Huiguang's eyes were red.
After so many years with Yan Yunxi, she believed that this good friend would not harm her, but she must have a reason for saying that.
The specific reason is self-evident, but she is unwilling to believe it, and dare not believe it.
No one present is stupid, and they all understand what Yan Yunxi means by saying this.
The scene is ready to hear a needle drop, and everyone is waiting for Sun Qishan's answer.
