They were far away. The brothers Zhao Dagang and Zhao Dashan, who were sent over in advance to cook, quickly put down the spoons in their hands when they saw everyone coming.
He called out to the firemen, "Brothers, the groom is here!
Everybody get ready, set off the firecrackers!"
When Tong Shuyi heard that her son-in-law was coming, she hurriedly put down the bag in her hand and went to the door to greet him.
She walked out quickly, wiping the tears from her face.
Gulinar was originally holding Sun Meng's hand, but when she saw her mother, she left Sun Meng and ran away.
When I came to Tong Shuyi, I saw that her mother's eyes were red, it was obvious that she had been crying!
She immediately stopped and, like a little cheetah, blocked her mother behind her.
He shouted at the top of his voice, "Which bastard is it that bullies my mother again when I'm not at home?
Who is it?
If you have the guts, stand up here and I will beat you to a pulp today!"
When Tong Shuyi saw her daughter throwing a tantrum, she hurriedly pulled her daughter's sleeve and explained to her.
"My girl, you misunderstood!
No one bullies me, I am happy.
I am happy that you are getting married.
There are so many people here, and my son-in-law is still here!
This is your first time visiting our house, so please control your aggressive attitude.
If you scare my son-in-law away, I will show you how I will deal with you!"
Then, he pulled Gulinar behind him.
He smiled apologetically at everyone, mainly to express his apology to Sun Meng, fearing that he had scared away such a good son-in-law!
Rubbing his hands, he hurriedly explained to Sun Meng.
"Son-in-law!
Life is not easy for an orphan and a widow, so my daughter's personality is a little bit fierce. Don't be scared!
In fact, she is not like this usually. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She is a soft-hearted little woman.
Um, son-in-law, don't be afraid!"
Tong Shuyi was ready as she spoke, so that if Sun Meng tried to escape, she could grab him the first time.
To be honest, she was really satisfied with her son-in-law, and was afraid that he would be scared away by her daughter's aggressive behavior just now!
Sun Meng is not a fool, he can also see the little thoughts of his mother-in-law.
He laughed out loud, "Mom, what are you thinking about!
I like Nana, I like the bold ones.
I, Sun Meng, have set my sights on Nana in this life. I like her no matter what she looks like.
You can rest assured!
I can’t run, and I don’t want to run!”
After getting Sun Meng's assurance, Tong Shuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Said, "Oh my god!
I was really scared just now!
I'm glad I didn't scare you!
Everyone, stop standing at the door and come in quickly. I have prepared the tea."
Then, as if afraid that Sun Meng would run away, Tong Shuyi followed Sun Meng closely.
She was not completely relieved until her son-in-law entered the house.
The next thing was the betrothal gift. Those people who had followed the demolition of the house and watched the fun were already curious.
They had counted it before, and there were a total of eighteen loads of betrothal gifts!
Let alone eighteen loads, they have lived for most of their lives and cannot even afford one load.
But it doesn’t matter!
Although they cannot afford to go out, they can just go along to watch the fun and broaden their horizons.
They stretched their necks to look and pricked up their ears to listen, for fear of missing the slightest detail.
I'm afraid this is the only chance in this life to open your eyes, and no one wants to miss it.
All I saw was the festive red cloth being lifted and the big red box being opened.
The first thing that caught everyone's eye was the neatly stacked large silver ingots.
The whole place was filled with gasps of shock, and someone exclaimed, "Oh my god!
It was so bright and silver that it almost blinded my eyes!
How much money is this?"
The housekeeper popped up at the right time and said, "This is the betrothal gift, a total of 10,010 taels, which means one in a million!"
There was another round of gasps and whispers from the crowd.
"Mom!
There was green smoke coming out of Guli's family's ancestral tomb. No, it should be that the tomb exploded!
Ten thousand and one taels, let me take a closer look.
From my childhood to the day I die.
There is no chance to see so much money at one time!"
At this time, an older lady said, "You know nothing, didn't you hear what the adults said just now?
One in a million, what does this mean?
This shows that the man values the woman, otherwise why would there be both small and large amounts?
It's important to say that it's not easy for an orphan and a widow, but at last the clouds have cleared and the moon has appeared."
Not only the people who came to join in the fun were surprised, but even Tong Shuyi and Gulinar, mother and daughter, were frightened.
The mother and daughter were so frightened that their faces turned pale. When they heard the price of ten thousand and one taels of silver, they stood up instantly.
He was so scared that he kept waving his hands and refused to take so much money.
I wanted to speak before, but I couldn't get the chance to speak.
Even the sound was drowned out by the discussions of the people around.
This time everyone finally finished speaking and shut up, and it was finally the mother and daughter's turn to speak.
When Tong Shuyi saw the box of silver, she was as frightened as if she had seen a flood or a beast. She kept waving her hands and didn't dare to look at it.
They said: "This money is too much, we dare not accept it, and we absolutely cannot accept it!
I'm marrying my daughter off, not selling her.
If I accept this money, what kind of person will I be?
I will have trouble sleeping and eating for the rest of my life!
How will everyone look at me? "
Sun Meng was anxious now, "Mom, you can't not accept it!
If you don't accept it, does that mean you don't like me?
Or am I not doing well enough?"
When Tong Shuyi heard this, she realized that her son-in-law had misunderstood and hurried to explain.
"Son-in-law, it's not that mother doesn't like you.
Mother is a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times satisfied with you.
I have never seen so much money, nor have I ever received so much betrothal gifts. I am scared!"
Sun Meng was relieved now, "Hey! I was thinking that you had changed your mind and didn't want to marry your daughter to me!
So it’s because you think you have too much money!
Then you take it, I have plenty of money, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
From now on, all my belongings will be handed over to Nana to manage. This is just the beginning!"
"oops!
A rich son-in-law!
Let me look at you and get some of your wealth, and see if I can get rich in the future?" Everyone joked and laughed again.
After that came the betrothal gift, but with the more than ten thousand taels of silver in cash as a pavement, the impact of the gold, silver, jewelry, jade, agate, and daily necessities that followed was not so great.
That didn't stop everyone from craning their necks to look, and constantly expressing envy and exclamations.
Next, the bride and groom simply changed into their wedding clothes, bowed simply to heaven and earth, and then it was time for everyone’s favorite part – hugging the table.
