Chapter 158 Gift List
During the meal.
Everyone was talking and laughing.
When they were almost done eating, Hong Lizhen took out a piece of red paper from her bag and handed it to He Dadi with a smile: "My dear, this is the betrothal gift my family prepared. Please take a look."
As soon as these words came out.
The whole audience fell silent.
He Dadi was startled and quickly took it.
The next moment, she looked confused and embarrassed: "I, I can't read..."
Hong Lizhen was stunned.
Then, with a guilty look on his face, he said, "I'm sorry, in-laws. I was negligent."
"or……"
Lin Su'e extended her hand to He Dadi, and said in a teasing tone: "Let me, the matchmaker, read it, otherwise I always feel like I'm just here to eat for free."
He Dadi immediately handed it to her: "Okay, you come."
Hong Lizhen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily: "Okay."
Lin Su'e didn't know how much the bride price was.
One reason was that the engagement between the two families was urgent; the other reason was that Hong Lizhen said it was a secret and didn’t tell her the details. She trusted the rich sister and didn’t ask any further questions.
Open it and take a look.
She couldn't help frowning, and after calming herself down, she read out: "One Phoenix brand bicycle; one Shanghai brand watch; one Butterfly brand sewing machine; and one Red Star brand tape recorder."
In the countryside, it’s still the same old four things.
The best bicycle brands currently are Phoenix, Forever and Fei Ge.
The best watch is Shanghai brand.
The best sewing machines are the Flying Man, Panda and Butterfly brands.
The best brands of radios are Red Star and Red Lantern.
In the city.
There are new pursuits.
Lin Su'e continued reading: "One Xinfei refrigerator, one Weili washing machine, one Snowflake brand black and white TV, and one Osmanthus brand electric fan."
She was shocked.
A big deal~
Nowadays, refrigerators, washing machines, televisions and electric fans are considered luxury items.
certainly.
It is obvious that the last four items are not for Qian Guisheng's family. After all, there is no electricity in the countryside.
perhaps.
It is for the Wang family’s own use.
However, this was counted in Qian Xiuzhi's betrothal gift, and it would also give her face when she talked about it with outsiders.
This is not over yet!
Lin Su'e looked down and widened her eyes: "The gift money is 1,800 yuan."
"complete."
1800, both families get it together, it’s a good omen.
After saying.
She raised her head.
Qian Guisheng's family was stunned.
Hong Lizhen smiled and asked the two, "My dear relatives, do you think it's suitable?"
He Dadi and Qian Guisheng looked at each other.
She swallowed and her voice trembled: "Dear, dear relatives, this is too expensive. I, we can't afford it."
Oh my god!
He Dadi shouted in her heart: Three turns and one ring, and what else, a washing machine and a television... These things I have never heard of, and most importantly, the bride price is 1,800!
In her entire life, she had never heard of any girl receiving so much dowry when she got married.
She is very courageous.
I can only dream of a 1,000 yuan betrothal gift.
Under this premise, it is better not to do the three turns and one ring things.
but……
But now it has increased several times. He Dadi is terrified and uneasy and dares not accept it.
Aside.
Qian Guisheng nodded heavily: "Yes, yes~"
Qian Xiuzhi was shocked and moved, her mind was in a mess, and she subconsciously looked at Wang Xinyuan.
Wang Xinyuan focused most of his attention on her and immediately gave her a bright smile.
See here.
Qian Xiuzhi felt much calmer.
opposite.
After hearing what He Dadi and Qian Guisheng said, Hong Lizhen felt much better about them.
original.
Because her son mentioned their family's dowry requirements, she thought the couple were patriarchal and the kind of parents who would sell their daughter.
But now it seems that it’s not just about money.
That's enough.
The Wang family and the Hong family do not need to rely on daughters-in-law to get rich, and the children can freely choose the ones they like.
Thinking of this, she smiled more warmly: "It's not a big expense. Marrying a daughter-in-law is a major event in life. It's not too important to attach too much importance to it."
"Don't think too much, in-laws. The wives of my eldest and second sons are similar."
"Old Wang, don't you think so?"
Wang Guiyang pretended to be invisible and kept silent. When he heard his wife's words, he smiled and nodded: "That's right."
Hearing this.
He Dadi and Qian Guisheng looked at each other again, and their expressions looked much more relaxed.
He Dadi: "That's good."
Qian Guisheng: "I have no objection."
See the deal is done.
Lin Su'e said in an exaggerated tone: "Today I have really opened my eyes. Sister Hong, Sister He, do you mind if I tell others about the betrothal gift?"
"I can guarantee that once I say that, someone will come to me and ask me to marry them, hahahaha."
Speaking of which.
She has been a matchmaker for half a year, but no one has come to her house to ask for marriage proposal.
Maybe the time is too short.
There are two couples getting married now, and it’s hard to tell whether they are good or not since they are still in the honeymoon period, and word of mouth cannot spread.
This way.
Hearing Lin Su'e's words, Hong Lizhen readily agreed: "Okay, you can say whatever you want. Anyway, I have married my daughter-in-law, so I have completely completed my mission."
He Dadi followed closely behind: "Of course there is no problem, I would like you to promote it for me more."
Everyone in the countryside is a relative.
Over the years, their family has been the subject of a lot of gossip because of the bride price.
This time.
She finally felt proud.
The purpose is to make those who think that their family is dreaming and that Qian Xiuzhi cannot get married open their eyes and take a closer look.
at the same time.
She made up her mind: Except for 1,000 yuan, I will let Xiuzhi take the remaining large items and 800 yuan back home, and I will make a few more quilts for her. When I display the betrothal gifts, I will let those people see them with their own eyes. Otherwise, they will say that I don’t love my daughter. Humph!
Lin Su'e had no idea what was going on in He Dadi's mind, but when she heard the two's answers, her smile deepened: "That's good, hahahaha."
Chatted and laughed for a while.
Hong Lizhen cleared her throat and straightened her face: "My dear relatives, we finally get to sit down and have a meal together today, why don't we set a date?"
As soon as these words came out.
The whole place was silent.
Qian Xiuzhi's cheeks turned red and she lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone.
Wang Xinyuan was stunned for a moment, then when he came to his senses, he smiled so much that his mouth almost reached his ears, and stared at Qian Xiuzhi without blinking.
He Dadi came back to her senses and nodded quickly: "That's exactly what I was thinking."
Hong Lizhen nodded: "That's good."
"The Chinese New Year is about two months away. It would be too hasty to get married this year. I suggest that we set the date after the Chinese New Year. How about the two in-laws?"
He Dadi immediately responded: "Happy New Year."
Qian Guisheng nodded silently.
Aside.
Lin Su'e was very calm.
With money in hand, she is not worried. With the 13,000 yuan given by Xue Guixian and Zhao Hehua when they got married, she doesn't love money at all.
A famous quote from a teacher named Ma: I am not interested in money~ (smoking)
"That's good."
Hong Lizhen smiled and said, "I have chosen a few good dates, which are February 27, March 5, and April 2 next year."
"See which day you like better, or you can choose it too."
