Chapter 355: Happy Events Make You Feel Happy
"My dear relatives, there is no need for us to be so polite." Seeing that there were six dishes on the table, four of which were meat dishes, it was clear that this meal cost a lot of money.
Liu Qinglan knew that their life was not easy, so she did not make it difficult for them with the betrothal gift.
Hearing this, He Shuyun felt relieved. She smiled and replied, "You're welcome. It's fate for two young people to be together. Today is our first time to have dinner together, so this is the way it should be."
If others don’t ask for these things, that’s their business, but we must do our part.
"Okay." Liu Qinglan felt that the two people were quite polite and nodded with a smile on her face.
As long as it is a good family, the children will live comfortably in the future.
Fang Xiaoli had said before that she wanted to get married, and they were not very optimistic about Wang Jianjun. But after getting to know him over the time, they found that he was actually quite good and at least he listened to his wife.
Maybe in the eyes of the mother-in-law, it is not good for her son to listen to his wife and have no opinion of his own.
But from my mother's perspective, this way my daughter won't be bullied and will have the final say at home and outside.
The meal was very harmonious. Before leaving, He Shuyun gave Fang Xiaoli a ladies' watch and a red envelope.
"What is this for?" Fang Xiaoli felt a little embarrassed, after all, she was a grown girl.
He Shuyun smiled and put the thing into her hand, "Keep it. I should have given it to you a long time ago. It's the Chinese New Year, so I only have time to give it to you today."
The girl's family didn't even mention the dowry, they only asked for the three major items, and they haven't even gotten them done yet. They are really ignorant of numbers.
Hearing her say this, Fang Xiaoli accepted it.
The two had a pleasant meeting, and neither of them had any intention of picking a fight.
After returning home, Liu Qinglan sat on a stool and said, "There is no powerful person in this family. I think your mother-in-law is good at talking, but she doesn't look like a troublemaker. It's good that you two don't live together in the future!"
What she is most satisfied with is that her daughter does not have to worry about the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, nor does she have to consider the conflicts between the sisters-in-law.
If we don't live together, there will definitely be fewer conflicts.
Fang Xiaoli nodded when she heard that. "Jianjun listens to me. This is what I am most satisfied with. I don't want to deal with my husband's family. Living here for a day or two may not be a big deal, but after a long time, we will quarrel."
She knew that her grandmother had conflicts with Liu Qinglan in the past, and the conflicts grew as time went on, so she also disliked having everyone live together.
How peaceful would it be for a couple to live together? She didn't want to get involved in those things.
When Fang Qiao saw his wife mention these things, she got up and went into the house. He didn't dare to say anything.
You can't say your mother is wrong, right? She doesn't have many years left.
This is my own wife, I can’t say anything, it’s better to stay in peace.
Liu Qinglan naturally noticed his reaction, rolled her eyes and continued talking to the girl.
"By the way, I saw your mother-in-law gave you a red envelope? How much was it? Let me see if I can add some more to buy you a cabinet." She thought that her daughter didn't have many things at home, so she had to buy everything.
I only have one daughter and my son is still young, so I always have to give him a big gift when he gets married.
Hearing this, Fang Xiaoli finally remembered and took out the red envelope from her pocket. It felt quite thin.
When he opened it, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Mom, it seems like more than a hundred!" She took out the money and counted it directly.
I thought it was just a few dozen dollars. After all, their family was poor, and those big items cost a lot of money. They also bought a house, so the total cost was nearly a thousand dollars.
Even for people living in the city, it would take five or six years to save up one thousand yuan.
"Two hundred!" After she finished counting, she looked at Liu Qinglan in surprise.
Liu Qinglan was also very surprised, "So many?"
It seems that the Wang family is pretty good. It's one thing that they don't want a dowry, but when they give it, they are sensible.
Although their family is not short of the two hundred dollars, it makes them feel good to be able to do this.
"Okay, you keep this money and I'll buy you a wardrobe." Liu Qinglan was happy and naturally generous.
A wardrobe costs at least eighty to one hundred dollars. Of course, there are cheaper ones, but if you want to buy one, you have to buy a good one. It is a big item.
Fang Xiaoli smiled and did not refuse. She would live on her own in the future, so she would have to save every penny. She wouldn't have to buy anything for herself later.
Here, the Wang family returned in a mighty procession. Chen Yi had already coaxed the two children to sleep and came out to inquire about the situation.
"Very good, the in-laws are very easy to talk to." The expression on He Shuyun's face has proved that this marriage is going well. At least they are not the kind of people who like to make trouble.
Hearing this, Chen Yi also nodded and said, "I grew up there. Aunt Liu is really nice."
As far as the original owner could remember, he had never had a quarrel with any of his neighbors, except Wang Limei.
Of course, there is a reason for this.
Because he was getting married in two days, Wang Jianjun seemed a little nervous. He was either walking around or going to the bathroom. In short, he had no spare time.
"Kid, can you please sit still for a while? You've made me dizzy." He Shuyun shouted at the person in front of her.
Wang Jianjun touched his nose and sat back in his chair angrily.
Well, I can’t afford to offend my mom.
"Mom, we'll go back after Jianjun gets married." Wang Jianguo had originally planned to leave on the second day of the Chinese New Year, but after arriving, he realized that the wedding was so close, and he couldn't leave after the Chinese New Year.
No matter how bad the situation is, it won’t make any difference for two days, so I just stayed.
He Shuyun nodded, "Okay, there's nothing going on at home, you have to visit Xiaoyun's parents when you go back."
The countryside is different from the city. People only start to get busy in the spring. Now in winter, there is nothing to do except collecting firewood. No one is needed anywhere else.
Chen Yi started working on the third day of the Lunar New Year because she received a big order before the Chinese New Year. In her spare time, she designed two sets of underwear and showed them to them. If it was okay, they would start production.
Don’t be fooled by its small size, its price is not cheap compared to the ready-made clothes sold outside.
Looking at the design drawings, she sent them to Director Li, including all the designs from the previous year.
Director Li has become immune to these design drawings and admires Chen Yi even more.
Who could have thought of designing something like this? He couldn't have thought of it anyway.
What he didn't expect was that the order came in on the fifth day of the New Year.
A total of 30,000 sets of orders!
"I'm really old." After hanging up the phone, Director Li was speechless.
He originally thought that an order of a few hundred pieces would be good enough, but he didn't expect to get so many.
However, Chen Yi took a leave today, so he didn't notify her, but he was full of emotion.
Chen Yi had arrived at Fang's house a long time ago. Seeing everyone happy, she was happy too.
Many of Wang Jianjun’s colleagues also came today. Although this guy is not talkative, he has an honest personality and is not annoying, so naturally there are many people who support him.
Fang Xiaoli was wearing the clothes that Chen Yi gave her today. Her hair was combed neatly and she put some powder on her face. She looked particularly beautiful.
As the saying goes, people feel happy when good things happen!
