Chapter 98 300 Yuan and Three Turns and One Ring
The person didn't leave for long.
Returned again.
Lin Su'e hadn't entered the house yet, and was surprised to see him: "What else?"
Wang Xinyuan blushed slightly and handed her a photo: "Auntie, please give it to Comrade Qian Xiuzhi."
Lin Su'e took it.
It was a full-body photo of him, wearing a white shirt, suit pants, black leather shoes, and his hair was specially styled, making him look extraordinarily handsome.
She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said, "You..."
Wang Xinyuan didn't dare to look at her, and rode away quickly, leaving behind a sentence: "Thank you, auntie."
For a while.
Lin Su'e chuckled: "Youth is great~"
…
Had lunch.
Lin Su'e rode her bicycle to Pu County.
The three members of the Xue family were all there, and they warmly welcomed her arrival. She got straight to the point: "Master Xue, Mianmian, and Uncle Hua and Auntie want to set the engagement date on the 2nd of next month. What do you think?"
The 2nd of next month?
This is less than 10 days.
Xue Guixian counted the days on the side, her cheeks slightly red, but she still sat on the sofa generously and did not hide in the house.
She is not the meek and shy type.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have insisted on marrying a son-in-law despite everyone's criticism.
This way.
Xue Zhixiong and He Mian looked at each other.
Xue Zhixiong nodded, He Mian understood, and replied to Lin Su'e with a smile: "It's no problem for us, just arrange it in the state-owned hotel, we will arrange it."
Lin Su'e nodded: "Okay."
At this time.
He Mian winked at Xue Zhixiong.
He understood, hesitated for a moment, and said through gritted teeth: "Sister Su'e, this is our first time to recruit a son-in-law, we have no experience, and we don't know anyone like him around. Tell me, how much should we give as a betrothal gift?"
Hearing this.
Lin Su'e fell into deep thought.
She has also met several families looking for a son-in-law and has some understanding of them.
Combining the videos and cases she had seen in later life, she had some ideas in mind, and she spoke with a measured tone: "Recruiting a son-in-law and marrying a daughter are actually similar, except that one is the man going to the woman's house, and the other is the woman going to the man's house.
The betrothal gift is naturally given by the woman.
Generally, it is based on the average local gift price.
But our case is a bit special. Hehua is from the countryside and Guixian is from the city, so should we give the bride price according to the city rules or the rural rules? ”
Having said this, she paused and signaled to the opposite side with her eyes.
Xue Zhixiong couldn't answer for a moment and subconsciously looked at his wife.
He Mian thought about it and said, "Our family gives the betrothal gift, so let's do it according to what we do in the city."
"Now the betrothal gift in our area is generally 300 yuan in cash, and then three major items: a bicycle, a watch, and a sewing machine. The average-situated couple will get one or two of them, while the well-off couple will get all three items, and at most a radio."
"For our family, the betrothal gift is 300 yuan in cash and three turns and one ring."
Xue Guixian nodded secretly.
Hearing this.
Lin Su'e gave a thumbs up and said, "How generous! With such a large gift, if you take it to the countryside, you will know that He Hua will become your son-in-law, and those people will only be envious."
"So I told the Sun family this?"
He Mian smiled and nodded.
Lin Su'e took a sip of water and continued, "Generally, for a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family, the man is responsible for providing for his father-in-law and mother-in-law in their old age and the child born will also take the woman's surname.
This is as it should be.
However, Master Xue and He Mian, you are also aware of He Hua's situation. His family has been a single-son family for three generations, and he is the only child. Both his parents are gone. This marriage is a very good one, but outsiders will inevitably say something unpleasant. I suggest that the first-born child be named Xue, and the second child be named Zhao like He Hua. What do you think? ”
She finished speaking.
The faces of the three people on the opposite side changed.
Xue Guixian’s face turned red: Oh my God! We haven't even gotten engaged yet, why are you suddenly talking about having children...
She covered her face and hid in the house.
Xue Zhixiong and He Mian looked surprised.
Seeing this, Lin Su'e hurriedly said, "This is just my personal suggestion. They don't know about it. Please don't mind it."
Hearing this, He Mian hurriedly shook his head: "We don't mind what Sister Lin said."
Xue Zhixiong agreed: "What you said makes sense. Lao He and I are not rigid people. We will do as you say."
Speaking of this.
He Mian didn't mind giving Zhao Hehua face again, and continued: "When we hold the wedding banquet, both families will hold it. We won't take the initiative to say that the one at the man's house is marrying into the man's family. If Hehua's uncle and aunt don't want to make it public, we can cooperate and keep it a secret."
Hear this.
Lin Su'e was surprised.
The Xue family is really a respectable and good family, they are so considerate of the man's face.
However, she did not agree, but smiled and said: "Mianmian, I think it would be best if you tell your aunt in person on the day of the engagement."
He Mian understood clearly.
"Okay, I'll listen to Sister Lin."
Since things were almost discussed, Lin Su'e didn't stay any longer.
"Master Xue, Mianmian, Guixian, I'm leaving first."
"Slow down."
…
Leave the Xue family.
Instead of leaving the city, she went to the vegetable market.
The vegetable market in Pu County is relatively large and has a more complete range of products, while the market in the town doesn’t even have seafood.
There are more people at home these days.
Lin Su'e first bought 5 kilograms of pork belly, 5 crabs and 3 kilograms of crucian carp.
These are probably enough for 2 days.
While walking on the road, Lin Su'e counted her savings.
After buying the kiwi saplings and bringing them home, she still had about 2,000 yuan in her hands. She first asked her eldest brother and others to help plant the trees, and the labor fee and food expenses cost about 200 yuan.
This month I spent 500 yuan on medicine and supplements for Zhenxin, which will last until the end of the year.
There were 1,300 yuan left, and I paid Dagui a month's salary. Last month, which was less than 20 days old, he only asked for 15 yuan.
The biggest expense was on food. I basically ate meat every day, and spent about 120 yuan in total. I currently have 1,165 yuan left.
In a few days, Dagui will be paid this month's salary of 30 yuan.
That leaves 1,135 yuan.
After the calculation, Lin Su'e couldn't help but sigh: "Although I owe 4,000 yuan in foreign debt, I have to say that money is really easy to spend these days~"
The next moment.
She said with a prayerful tone: "Looking at the Xue and Zhao families, the engagement will be held soon. I hope the lottery will be a big one and make me rich."
Buy a bicycle, renovate the house, travel to Beijing, buy a Xiheyuan...
Every single thing and every single thing involves money.
…
Guanqiao Village.
Coming to this place again, she felt much better.
After all, her daughter and grandson have escaped from suffering, so she doesn't have to worry about them suffering in a place she can't see.
This place.
She came several times.
Most people knew her and knew she was a matchmaker.
today.
As soon as she entered the village, an old lady with a horse face spoke to her: "Matchmaker Lin, are you going to Sun Mingcai's house again?"
As long as they are not enemies, Lin Su'e will be enthusiastic and respond with a smile: "Yes~"
Seeing that she was easy to talk to, the old woman with the horse face immediately put on an expression that was caring for her, and said earnestly: "Matchmaker Lin, you are a matchmaker every day, you must be very eloquent, right? Persuade your daughter to reconcile with Shanchuan as soon as possible. It's not a good idea to always bring your daughter to live with her parents, don't you think?"
Hearing this.
Lin Su'e's face suddenly fell, and she retorted unhappily: "I'm happy for my daughter to stay as long as she wants!"
After saying.
Without giving the horse-faced old woman a chance to speak, he quickened his pace and passed her first.
The horse-faced old woman's complaining voice was still ringing in my ears: "Alas, why don't you listen to me? I'm so old and have experienced everything. It's all for the good of your daughter..."
Lin Su'e snorted coldly.
Don’t advise others to do good unless you have experienced their suffering.
Do you know what happened? Just give advice there!
