"Three thousand yuan?" Mr. Lu frowned.
It’s not that the Lu and Guo families can’t come up with three thousand yuan, but they have never heard of anyone asking for such a heavy betrothal gift for a wedding.
For ordinary people, three turns and one ring are the maximum amount. For those with better conditions, they can add another hundred or eighty yuan, which is within the acceptable range.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for three thousand yuan, which was something Mr. Lu had never heard of or seen before.
The expression on Lu Mingfang's face was also a little subtle, and it was obvious that she didn't know about this beforehand.
Li Jinfeng ate her meal silently, occasionally glancing at Tuantuan who was lying in Lu Jianguo's arms beside her.
Guo Qingguo is getting married, which is a happy event. As a younger member of the Lu family, she can only give her blessings and cannot say anything else.
However, Guo Qingguo's girlfriend asked for three thousand yuan, which was indeed a bit too much.
In Li Jinfeng's impression, Mr. Lu was not a stingy person. The money he gave her alone added up to more than 20,000 yuan.
He gave himself the deposit certificate of 20,000 yuan without even blinking an eye, and didn't care about the few thousand yuan at all.
But there is a huge difference between giving and asking!
If Guo Qingguo's girlfriend leaves a bad impression on Mr. Lu, I'm afraid her future life will not be easy.
"It's three thousand. Qingguo also discussed it with me and asked if his family had that much money. He said he could afford five hundred."
Guo Qingguo is a senior technician in a state-owned factory, and his monthly salary is eighty or ninety yuan.
Three thousand yuan is actually not a big deal for him.
But he was young and liked to buy this and that, so no matter how much money he had, it would be spent like water.
Now, he is hoping that his family can give him some financial support so that they can discuss the marriage.
"If you think it's okay, then it's okay!" Mr. Lu did not comment on this matter.
If my grandson really likes this girl, a betrothal gift of three thousand yuan is not too much.
"Dad, I haven't finished yet!" Guo Song said again.
This time, the expression on his face was one of embarrassment.
Even the good-tempered Mr. Lu showed an expression of impatience on his face, "What else do you want?"
"Work! Her two brothers' jobs. The girl started working at Qingguo Factory in March this year. She's pretty and sensible.
It's only been a one-year apprenticeship, and I haven't even been officially hired yet! As for her two brothers, it was their parents' request that if they wanted to marry the girl, they had to help their two sons find jobs."
When Li Jinfeng heard this, she suddenly thought of a word - "brother-supporting demon".
This was a word she heard in her previous life. The last time she thought of it was when Cai Gangqiang came to visit with his six sisters.
Aren’t Cai Gangqiang’s six sisters responsible for arranging Cai Gangqiang’s marriage and providing unlimited subsidies to their parents’ family?
At that time, she still looked down on Cai Gangqiang a little, until the last time Li Dahu sent a telegram, talking about the efforts Cai Gangqiang made for his twin sons, she changed her opinion of Cai Gangqiang.
Now, after listening to what Guo Song said about the requirements of Guo Qingguo's girlfriend, Li Jinfeng had this feeling.
"So, the requirement over there is three turns and one ring, plus a betrothal gift of 3,000 yuan, and the work for two people?" asked Mr. Lu.
"yes!"
"What kind of job does their family want?" Mr. Lu asked casually.
Lu Jianguo slowed down his movements to tease Tuantuan.
He felt that his grandfather was a little angry.
Guo Song didn't notice and continued, "Easy, respectable, and high salary!"
