Chapter 54: Wealthy and Powerful

It’s no wonder that Zhang’s mother and the others were shocked. It’s really that Deng Shirong’s family is so well off!

The matchmaker is a master of the vat kiln. The education level of the brothers and sisters in the family is not low. Deng Shirong, as the father, is one of the owners of the vat kiln. The house built by the family is a blue brick and tile house that is almost unavailable in rural areas, and each of the brothers has a house.

The most important thing is that there is no mother-in-law yet.

As we all know, the issue between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a major problem that has troubled the Chinese nation for thousands of years. There have been so many great figures in history, but when faced with this thorny issue, they still have not come up with a good solution.

Especially in this era, the authority of the mother-in-law is really incomparable to that in later generations. No matter which girl gets married, the most feared thing is to meet an unreasonable or biased mother-in-law. Then the days of suffering will come, and it is unknown how many years it will take to get through it.

If she becomes Deng Shirong's eldest daughter-in-law, she will have only a father-in-law but no mother-in-law. She can be the head of the family right after she gets married. Coupled with such favorable economic conditions, she will be a rare bachelor that you can't find even with a lantern.

The conditions were so good that Zhang's mother and the other two felt it was unreal.

Deng Shirong briefly introduced his family's situation. Seeing that Zhang's mother and the other two were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time, he added, "There is one more thing I need to make clear. My eldest son looks more like me. He is ordinary and has no outstanding features. So in terms of appearance, he is not worthy of you, Sister Ping. I hope you don't dislike him."

Before Zhang Xiuping could answer, Zhang's mother rushed to say, "No, there's nothing to dislike about it. Just because she's pretty doesn't mean she can make a living."

Zhang Xiuping could tell from her mother's words that she was satisfied with this marriage. She suppressed her shyness and asked, "Uncle Deng, what is the personality of your eldest son like?"

Deng Shirong knew what the mother and daughter were thinking when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I'm not bragging, my eldest son has a mature and stable personality, is kind and filial, and is down-to-earth. He is a very reliable man."

Zhang Xiuping nodded secretly after hearing this. If Uncle Deng in front of her was not lying, then she really had nothing to complain about with this partner.

The more Zhang's mother listened, the more satisfied she became. If she had not been rational, she would have wanted to decide on her daughter's marriage immediately.

However, the marriage of the third and youngest sons has always been a concern for the couple, so Zhang's mother had to bite the bullet and said, "Dear, your family's conditions are indeed excellent. If my sister Ping can marry into such a family, it will be her blessing.

But there is one thing I need to make clear to you in advance. Our family is not well off. With my husband and I's ability to make money, we really can't help our third and youngest sons get married. So we can only pin our hopes on my sister Ping, hoping that the in-laws she finds can help my two younger brothers.

It is precisely because of this condition proposed by my husband and I that many families with good financial conditions have been scared away. I hope you, my relative, will not be scared. "

Zhang Xiuping, who was sitting next to her, heard her mother mention this. There was helplessness and a hint of embarrassment in her eyes. The cost of marrying her was equivalent to marrying three. It would be strange if the person introduced by the matchmaker before didn't run away in fear.

After all, life is not easy for everyone in the countryside these days. The cost of marrying a wife is already ridiculously high. Now, on this basis, it is equivalent to adding two more gifts. Which family can afford this?

Deng Shirong said calmly, "My dear, I have heard about the conditions proposed by your family. We are willing to pay one thousand for A Ping's worth, and another three hundred and eighty, which is the dowry for A Ping when she gets married.

If your family is satisfied with this condition, how about picking a date to come and visit my house after it is completed?"

After hearing this, Zhang's mother and the other two were shocked again! What does it mean to be rich and powerful?

That's it! One thousand three hundred and eighty yuan, thrown out without blinking an eye, this really refreshed the three views of Zhang's mother and the other two.

Originally, the other party gave a thousand yuan for the living expenses, which was already extremely generous. After all, in this era, three or four hundred yuan was basically enough to marry a wife. Even if it cost eight hundred yuan to marry two sons, there would still be two hundred yuan left. If the dowry given to the daughter was less, some money could be squeezed out to pay off the debt!

As a result, Deng Shirong gave her a thousand yuan as a living expense, and in order to save her family's face, he gave her an extra three hundred and eighty yuan as a dowry for her daughter.

Although this money belongs to their daughter, after her daughter has this dowry, the couple no longer need to give her any more dowry. The remaining two hundred yuan can be used to pay off debts and clear all debts.

If Zhang's mother doesn't agree to face such a powerful and generous relative, she must be crazy.

Obviously, Zhang's mother was not stupid. She made the decision directly: "Relative, then it is settled. When your house is finished, you should send us a message."

Deng Shirong said with a smile on his face: "The wall has already been built. It is expected to be completed in more than two months. Then I will come and invite you to see the house in person."

Mother Zhang nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, then we'll wait."

Deng Shirong said sincerely, "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that my name is Deng Shirong, and I'm from Naye Village, Bangjie Brigade, Songshan Commune. There are still more than two months left. You're welcome to ask someone to come and inquire about our family's situation and see if what I told you is correct."

Zhang's mother didn't have much doubt in her heart. After all, no one would come to her house to brag about something that would be easily broken. Now, after hearing what Deng Shirong said, she felt more relieved. She smiled brightly and said, "Dear relative, there is no need to ask anyone. We trust you."

Deng Shirong waved his hand and said, "This is not a question of whether or not to trust me. I am a man of my word. Before coming to your house, I also asked people about the situation. After all, marriage is related to the happiness of our children for a lifetime. We as parents should still pay attention to it. So you must do what you asked people to do. This is your responsibility to your children."

Zhang's mother and the other two were in awe after hearing what he said. They did not reject Deng Shirong's kindness and agreed to it.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After finishing the business, Deng Shirong stayed to chat for a few minutes and then got up to say goodbye.

"Relative, it's getting late, I'll go back first!"

"That won't do. It's almost noon. You came all the way here, you must stay for dinner!"

"You're welcome. My family is building a house right now, and all the relatives and young men from the village are here to help. It would be embarrassing for me to be away from home all the time, so I have to hurry back. When we become relatives, we will have many opportunities to eat together. There's no need to rush."

"Well... well, I'm just really sorry."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Okay, no more words, bye!"

"goodbye!"
