Xu Manman raised her hands and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Your master and I are getting married in a few days. After class today, we'll see each other again next semester, so I brought the wedding candy here in advance. I wish you all good grades on your final exams."
Following Xu Manman's words, Jin Zichu began to distribute the pre-packaged wedding candies.
As expected, there was another wave of good-natured booing from the students.
Xu Manman taught classes for all undergraduate grades in the Economics Department, so the entire Economics Department was filled with wedding candies, with five large boxes of wedding candies alone.
The students who received the wedding candies were simply happy, but some teachers were more financially savvy and were amazed at the milk candies and chocolates in the bags, which were all high-end candies on the market.
There are so many teachers and students in this college. It's so generous. They spent so much money before the formal wedding even took place. It's all wasted money.
The dean didn't take it seriously. He was invited to the engagement ceremony. Comrade Jin was financially strong and had even given a car as a betrothal gift. These few things were a drop in the bucket for them.
After the wedding candy caused a sensation in the school, although Xu Manman did not attend classes, she was not idle either.
Exam week is coming soon. Although she has finished her papers in advance, the school is short of staff. Even professors have to invigilate the exams. After the exams, she has to mark the papers and calculate the scores. The school also has to hold meetings to arrange enrollment and academic affairs for the next semester.
Oh, she will be supervising graduate students next semester, so there will be another round of graduate student assessment.
So this exam week, she was even busier than when she was in school. Fortunately, although her wedding date was approaching, there was nothing for her to worry about, and Xiao Jin helped her mark the papers.
After the students left school and all the work at hand was completed, Xu Manman finally welcomed her summer vacation.
When coming out of the office, Xu Manman was in a particularly good mood as she breathed in the air which was not yet heavily polluted.
Two months of summer vacation and flexible working hours, this is the ideal job she has been working hard for.
The relaxed mood did not last long. As soon as Jin Zichu drove her home, her mother dragged her to try on wedding dresses and discuss the decoration of the wedding room.
Xu Manman didn't understand, "Mom, haven't we already arranged all this in advance? Why do we still need to do this?"
"You'll be living in your new house for the rest of your life. It's Zichu's job to decide how to do it. Don't you have to decide if it suits your taste? If there's anything that doesn't suit you, there's still time to make changes now."
"There's nothing I don't like about it. It's very suitable and doesn't need to be changed." How could what Xiao Jin did not suit her taste?
Chen Meiyu didn't dwell on this. No one could find fault with the way her future son-in-law did things.
She took out a red list and said, "This is the dowry your father and I prepared for you. Take a look and see if there's anything you want to add. It's not too late to add it now."
Xu Manman originally thought that it would just be cash and some small items, but she didn't expect that it would start with a villa in Haishi.
"Mom? You're going to give me that house in Hai City as a dowry? What about getting married after Jianguo?"
Although their family does not believe that a daughter married off will be spilled, the house in Hai City is their family's assets. Xu Manman never thought that the house would belong to her in the end.
"We are all born to our parents. If there is one, there is also one for Jianguo. The yard next to you is so big, and the house in Jing City is not rare for you. Then I will give you the one in Hai City.
That building was renovated two years ago. You can live there or rent it out if you want. The courtyard we live in now will be left to Jianguo."
Xu Manman threw herself into her mother's arms, "Mom, you are so good to me."
Although she had a lot of properties and her children also had several villas, Xu Manman had no intention of refusing. This dowry was a symbol of her parents' love for her and fairness to their children.
With this house as a foundation, the 6,666 yuan in cash and other things written at the bottom of the list don’t seem so valuable.
These are considered sky-high prices in today's era when the average salary is only a few dozen yuan.
However, Xu Manman is a wealthy woman herself. She donated so much money that her family could not let her down. After returning to China, she immediately gave her parents 20,000 US dollars. This dowry was not a big deal for them.
In fact, if his elder brother had not told him in advance not to be too conspicuous, Xu Gang would have wanted to add all the money.
At the beginning of the sixth lunar month, relatives and friends of the Xu family from other places came one after another. Although there were not many people in the Xu family and there were not many relatives from his mother's Chen family, with the marriages of several brothers and sisters in the past two years, the number of in-laws added up to quite a few.
