She sat on a stool, leaning on a cane with one hand, and looked at Jiang Xia.
"Xia Xia, it's good that you understand your grandma's kindness. You are my granddaughter, how can I not miss you and care about you? Now you are so old and you are old enough to get married. Grandma, I come to your house this time because I am concerned about your marriage." Old Mrs. Jiang said.
There was calculation in her eyes, thinking that according to the Lu family's financial situation, she was Jiang Xia's grandmother after all.
As her future grandson-in-law, it would be inappropriate for Lu Yuanting not to give her some good things as a gift.
"A while ago, Xiao Shen, a girl from our compound, got married. Xiao Shen's husband was very generous in spending money on the wedding. He brought his parents to visit and brought a lot of gifts. He bought a new set of foreign brand clothes for Xiao Shen's grandmother. He said it was a down jacket that was very warm and he wanted to use foreign exchange coupons to buy it. He also bought a second-hand radio for Xiao Shen's grandmother."
"Xiao Shen's man is willing to give money to her family. What does this mean? He values her! Who in the compound doesn't praise Xiao Shen's man for being sensible? I was thinking that you are all young and have never been married. I am afraid you don't understand these things. I am here to explain them to you. Otherwise, if you don't do it well later, it will be embarrassing."
Old Mrs. Jiang spoke, looking as if she was considering Jiang Xia.
"Yes, grandma, you are right. I also remembered an important thing. This marriage really needs to be handled well, otherwise it will be embarrassing if it is not done well." Jiang Xia listened and nodded.
Old Mrs. Jiang was delighted when she heard what Jiang Xia said, thinking that Jiang Xia agreed. She suddenly felt a little regretful. She thought that what she had just said was too restrained. If she had known it would be so easy, she should have asked for more things, so that she could sell these things or put them away.
To be given to Hongjiao as a dowry or to be used as a wife for Jinbao in the future.
"Then..." Old Mrs. Jiang was about to speak.
"I saw that when Xiao Shen got married, her grandmother gave Xiao Shen a lot of things, including money and treasures. Everyone in the yard praised Xiao Shen's grandmother for loving her granddaughter and praised Xiao Shen for having a good grandmother. But now, grandma, you don't give anything. You're always thinking about asking your grandson-in-law to give you things before they even get married."
"I'm afraid that people in the compound will gossip about you, and you will lose face."
“……”Old Mrs. Jiang.
"Give it as a gift, of course. I came here today to talk about this. Grandma has a family heirloom for you to give it to her when she gets married." Old Mrs. Jiang smiled dryly after hearing what Jiang Xia said. She was thinking of giving Jiang Xia some worthless stuff. Then she could tell others that she gave her granddaughter a treasure for her wedding. Anyway, there was no outsider here and no one knew what it was.
She knew her eldest son well and would definitely not let Jiang Xia bring things up.
Old Mrs. Jiang felt around her hand and was about to take out the worthless copper bracelet on her wrist.
At this time, there was a movement in the yard. It was the fat aunt next door and several other aunts from the neighbors who came over. It was obvious that they had been standing in the yard for quite some time.
They all looked at Old Lady Jiang, obviously wanting to see what the heirloom was that Old Lady Jiang was talking about giving to Jiang Xia for her marriage.
"..." Old Mrs. Jiang, if she really gave away this tattered copper bracelet, she would be too ashamed to face anyone in this compound.
But all the big talk I just said was wrong.
