Chapter 895: Discussing the Dowry
When Tang Min and Gu Jingchuan were walking in the alley, Wang Guixiang and Wang Ying were standing there with a basket of vegetables, waiting for Gu Jingchuan to come back and reply.
Tang Min walked over and said, "Mom, sister-in-law, let me go shopping with you."
"Tian, Xiaomin, come on, buy whatever filling your master wants to eat."
Wang Guixiang happily left with her two daughters-in-law.
When Gu Jingchuan saw the backs of the three women, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Finally, there is no more chaos at home.
Just as he stepped out of his doorstep, Jin Zhengtai's motorcycle rumbled past his feet.
Jin Zhengtai didn't wear a helmet, his pants were blown messy, and he smiled with his handsome face, "Boss."
"You're back?"
Gu Jingchuan spoke.
"Boss, I've found someone to propose marriage to you."
Jin Zhengtai said happily.
Gu Jingchuan asked, "Who?"
Jin Zhengtai replied, "Boss Tang, Second Uncle Tang, I just went to his company and told him that he is very willing to be my matchmaker. He will come to my house tonight to propose marriage."
Gu Jingchuan smiled and said, "You know how to find someone. My second uncle has a good relationship with my dad, so you can find him."
As soon as Jin Zhengtai's motorcycle stopped in the yard, Gu Jingqi ran out and shouted at him, "Brother Jinzi, you are about to get engaged to my sister, now you should fulfill your promise, right?"
"Buying you a bed, huh?"
Jin Zhengtai was very generous, "Sure, let's go to the furniture store now."
"So soon?"
"Dang, I keep my word."
Jin Zhengtai stopped the car and said, "I'm going to wash my hair first. Look, my hair is all messed up."
Jin Zhengtai hummed a song while dressing herself up.
Gu Jingchuan went to the bedroom, then came out and called Gu Jingqi, "Jingqi, come in."
Gu Jingqi was very excited because he was going to buy a new bed.
Ran in.
Gu Jingchuan was sitting on the sofa, with Gu Decheng and Gu Jinghui also there.
He held a few hundred-dollar bills in his hand, "Take this money and buy a big bed. Don't let your brother Jinzi pay for it."
Gu Jingqi was slightly startled, "Second brother..."
"This is the money you earned from working part-time during the summer vacation. Jinzi will be your brother-in-law in the future, but they are not married yet. Don't keep spending other people's money."
Gu Jingchuan put the money on the table.
Gu Jingqi nodded obediently, "Second brother, I understand."
Gu Jingchuan was not worried that Jin Zhengtai could not afford a bed.
He was afraid that if Gu Jingqi set the precedent, his elder brother and sister-in-law would follow suit.
If they all go to eat Jin Zhengtai, Jingxiu will not be happy in the future.
He can't let his brother-in-law and sister become the demons who support their younger brother and older brother.
Gu Decheng also scolded him, "Jingqi, your second brother is right. From now on, you are not allowed to ask for gold. You are a student, so don't buy things you shouldn't buy. Study hard and earn money yourself when you work in the future."
Gu Jingqi responded, "Dad, I remember, my second brother just said that this money was earned by me while working part-time.
Don't nag me, I won't waste money."
"Go ahead."
Gu Jingqi took the money and ran to find Jin Zhengtai.
In the afternoon, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made dumplings and invited Dr. Feng to come over for a big meal.
After eating, Doctor Feng went back to his yard to study medical skills.
Gu Jingchuan took Gu Jingqi and Gu Jinghui to wash the dishes and pots.
Gu Decheng was used to the women in the family working around the stove, and at this moment, he was afraid that his son would ask him to go to the kitchen to work too.
When Gu Jingqi was wearing an apron and pouring water for washing the pot, Jin Zhengtai and Tang Jianye came in.
Jin Zhengtai was carrying tea, milk, and two bottles of wine in his hands, which was quite a rich bag.
Tang Jianye saw Gu Jingqi still washing the pot at home, so he praised him again and at the same time disdained his own son.
Gu Decheng was surprised to see Tang Jianye coming over. "Boss Tang, why are you here?"
Tang Jianye laughed, "Brother Gu, I came here today for a mission."
"Task?"
"today.
I am here to propose marriage to our Jingxiu."
Gu Decheng heard this.
He smiled and said, “So that’s how it is.”
Gu Decheng was really surprised that Jin Zhengtai would invite Tang Jianye to his home to propose marriage.
In the afternoon, he was still discussing with Wang Guixiang, wondering who Jin Zhengtai would ask to be the matchmaker?
He was even worried that Jin Zhengtai would never ask that man named Gao Zheng, or their relatives, to propose marriage.
Those two people were so serious that when they met, their whole family was so nervous that they were trembling and couldn't sit down and have a pleasant chat.
Seeing Tang Jianye, Gu Decheng finally felt at ease.
Gu Decheng was quite enthusiastic, "Uncle, please take a seat."
"Uncle, hurry up and do it. Have you had dinner?"
Tang Min poured him some water and asked.
Tang Jianye sat on the sofa.
Said with a smile.
"I have eaten. I came here after dinner."
Seeing that the whole family was there, Tang Jianye got straight to the point, "Then let's talk about the two children."
"Brother Gu, Jinzi and Jingxiu, these two children are really a perfect match, a very suitable pair.
Look at this boy Jinzi, he is so handsome.
He is good at business and has a cheerful personality, which makes him the best person for living together."
Tang Jianye first praised Jin Zhengtai a lot.
Jin Zhengtai blushed uncomfortably.
Tang Jianye said, "In short, I think he is perfect in every way."
Gu Decheng was also satisfied. He smiled and said, "Yes, Xiao Jin is a good person."
After Tang Jianye praised Jin Zhengtai, he also praised Gu Jingxiu, "Our Jingxiu is also good, pretty, capable, kind, and down-to-earth.
Being with Xiao Jin, I will definitely be able to live a prosperous life."
Gu Jingxiu felt very happy because of the praise.
She is a country girl, but she can be recognized by her elders in the city, which shows that everyone has noticed her progress.
Although, it could also be a polite remark.
But she was still happy.
Gu Decheng said, "Uncle, we are also very satisfied with Jinzi. Free love is popular among young people nowadays. They choose their partners on their own. We respect the child's opinion."
Tang Jianye nodded, "Yes, kids nowadays all value free love, so let's just talk about the betrothal gift and so on."
When the children find a partner, the elders have to come to pay the bride price according to the custom.
Gu Decheng said, "Just give the bride price according to the children's discretion. This is a custom. Just give it as a token of your appreciation. The most important thing is that the children live a happy life."
In this regard, Gu Decheng is quite open-minded.
He had three sons, and in order to find wives for his sons, he almost emptied out his entire family.
He would not offer a huge amount of betrothal gift and create problems for his son-in-law.
Tang Jianye gave him a thumbs up and said, "Hey, Brother Gu, you are an open-minded person."
"We don't know what the customs are in your hometown, so how about this, the engagement of these two children should be conducted according to the customs in your hometown?
Didn’t your eldest brother get married a long time ago?
How much did he get as a betrothal gift? "
Gu Decheng replied, "The eldest daughter-in-law is two thousand."
Tang Jianye deliberately bypassed Tang Min and did not mention her.
He had heard that Tang Min was married off to a huge amount of money by the Lin family in her hometown.
