Mother Qin has been feeling angry these days. If it weren't for the fact that Qin Ling was about to get married and Father Qin did not fulfill the wishes of her mother-in-law and her trouble-making sister-in-law, Mother Qin would have considered the possibility of divorce!
As soon as Qin's father said this, Qin's mother got angry again!
Qin's father was also in the wrong. He secretly pulled Qin's mother's clothes and whispered:
"Someone is here, give me some face!"
Only then did Qin's mother shake off Qin's father's hand and stop looking at him.
Mother Qin took the things from Father Lin's hand and said with a smile:
"If you want to apologize, it should be me and Qin Ling's father who should apologize. I was so busy being angry with Qin Ling's father these past two days that I didn't even think about this!"
"Shouwang and Xiaoyue got married first. This is what should happen in any family. Qinling's father and I have no complaints!"
"As for Shangjing, he is also a rare good kid. Considering that Qinling is busy recently, I specially accommodated Qinling!"
"There's nothing wrong with this matter, it's just that my sister-in-law and mother-in-law, hey, Lao Lin is not unaware of what happened back then, it's better not to talk about it!"
"Lao Lin, Shouwang and Xiaoyue, you must not be too suspicious!"
Father Jin smiled and said:
"As long as my sister-in-law doesn't have any bad intentions, we won't worry too much!"
"Besides, today I came here to apologize, and I also wanted to discuss the marriage of our two children with Brother Qin and his wife!"
Talking about marriage, Qin's mother was even happier!
She was not in a hurry for her daughter's marriage. After all, Old Lin and Lin Shangjing were good characters, and Qin's mother could trust them!
It was her annoying sister-in-law who kept talking nonsense outside every day, causing a bunch of people to come and ask Qin's mother, which made Qin's mother very annoyed!
The marriage is settled, now she wants to see what her sister-in-law, who is full of bad intentions and loves to gossip, has to say!
Because they were discussing the marriage, Qin's mother was not in a hurry to cook. She sat next to Qin's father and discussed it with Lin's father!
Father Lin is not the type to beat around the bush. As soon as the two families sat down, Father Lin said directly:
"Qin Ling and Shang Jing's wedding, I want to schedule it for New Year's Day. It's not in this year, so it's not a big taboo!"
"Brother Qin and sister-in-law, do you have any ideas? Should we move it forward or postpone it because it's taboo? We can discuss it later!"
Mother Qin smiled and said:
"New Year's Day, this time is good, it's the next year, what's the taboo, we have no objection!"
After saying that, Mother Qin stared at Father Qin, as if she would eat him if he dared to say anything!
Father Qin felt Mother Qin's gaze, and even if he had any objections, he didn't dare to raise them. Besides, he really had no objections, so Father Qin quickly nodded and said:
"No problem, New Year's Day is good, very good!"
Now that the marriage is decided, the next thing to do is to deal with the details of the wedding. Father Lin continued:
"There is one more thing I need to ask Brother Qin and his wife for their opinions!"
"Ordinarily, Qin Ling and Shang Jing's wedding should be a grand affair, but with my and Brother Qin's situation, and this year's situation, do you think the wedding should be the same as Shou Wang and Xiao Yue's, keeping it simple, or should it be a grand affair?"
Father Qin agreed with what Father Lin said very much. Even if Father Lin didn’t say it, he would also say that the wedding should not be a big one!
As for Qin's mother, she has always been on the same side as Qin's father regarding the matter of Grandma Qin and Aunt Qin. That was also because Grandma Qin and Aunt Qin were too much, so it was not Qin's mother's fault!
In other matters, Qin's mother is very considerate of Qin's father and is a very reasonable person!
Qin's father and mother had no objection to Jian holding the wedding.
What remains is the things to be purchased as a betrothal gift in addition to the betrothal money already given for the engagement!
In these two matters, both families are quite humble!
Mr. Lin’s current requirements for marriage are that three turns and one ring, and 36 legs must be purchased!
Father Qin and Mother Qin were unwilling to ask for more. Mother Qin and Father Lin said the same thing:
"Bicycles and watches are already available in Qinling. Just bring them over. There's no point in wasting them by selling them!"
"Then there's no need to buy a sewing machine. Don't worry about Brother Lin making fun of you. Our family is Qinling, so she won't use this. If you buy her one, it will just gather dust!"
"As for the radio, didn't Brother Lin buy a TV at home? Why do you need a radio when you have a TV? No need to buy one!"
"And the furniture. There is no shortage of furniture in Shangjing's house. Why buy thirty-six legs? What a waste. Don't buy them!"
According to Qin's mother's calculation, there is no need to buy any big items. Just buying Qin Ling two new clothes can be considered a marriage!
Father Lin was not willing to simplify it so much. He disagreed:
"That won't work. You can't treat Qin Ling like that. The wedding has already been simplified. It's unacceptable to give such a small gift!"
Qin's father also doesn't advocate extravagance and waste, but the two families are deadlocked because one insists on buying it and the other doesn't want it!
It was still Lin Manman's idea. She smiled and said:
"I think what my dad, Uncle Qin, and Aunt Qin said makes sense!"
"However, how about this? Buy my sister Qin Ling a good watch. I can have multiple watches to wear alternately. This is not a waste!"
"As for the rest, there is really no need to buy them, but my dad can't save this money. He's going to marry his daughter-in-law, and if he doesn't spend the money properly, he won't be happy!"
"Let's cash it out. If we calculate the price of these things, it won't be less than 1,000 yuan. Let's round it up to 2,000 yuan. This will be the start-up capital my dad will give to sister Qin Ling and my third brother!"
This is not an exception. When Peng Yue got married, Old Peng refused to let Lin's father buy these things and insisted on giving them as a dowry!
At that time, in addition to the 888 yuan betrothal gift and the watch that Lin Shouwang paid for Peng Yue himself, Lin's father gave 2,000 yuan as a subsidy to Peng Yue and Lin Shouwang.
