Aunt Feng had previously given a quilt cover and quilt lining, and the quilt had already been made and placed on the bed, so there was nothing to add this time.
Wang Zhengguo and his four siblings felt sorry for their niece who had no parents and had to take care of her younger sister, so they all rushed over.
Uncle Feng and Aunt Feng were particularly warm and hospitable.
They were also convinced by Feng Qingxue's brother and sister-in-law, and pretended not to know that their sister was getting married. All the young and old in the clan came to help, treating it as a grand event, and the two couples were nowhere to be seen.
Whether the brother and sister can reconcile depends entirely on their usual behavior. If they miss this opportunity, there will be no chance to reconcile in the future.
Feng Qingxue's aunt and uncle also never showed up from beginning to end.
"My niece has no father or mother, and having a brother and sister-in-law is like having nothing. Her dowry was given by my niece's husband's comrades-in-arms, and she has what she has now. As her uncle and aunt, the four of us brothers scraped together 16 yuan to give her as a dowry." Most of it was paid by Wang Zhengguo himself and handed to Ma Haiyan, who was in charge of packing.
Ma Haiyan is the daughter-in-law of Uncle Feng and the cousin of Feng Qingxue.
According to local customs, it should be the sister-in-law of the married woman who packs the boxes. If she is a relative, her biological sister-in-law should be used, and if she is not a relative, her cousin should be used. However, Feng Qingxue and her brother and sister-in-law are not on good terms, so Ma Haiyan is sent instead.
Then, Wang Zhengguo took out another eight silver dollars and said with a smile: "My father saved them all his life to leave them for me as a treasure!"
Uncle Wang Er and Uncle Wang San were the most practical. Each of them carried a sack of grain as a dowry for their niece.
Aunt Wang put a pair of slightly blackened but delicately carved old silver bracelets on her niece's hands and said with a smile: "My mother made them for me when I got married. Today I'm giving them to her granddaughter as a dowry!"
In the bank, one silver dollar can be exchanged for one dollar, and the price of a silver bracelet is also limited.
Therefore, compared with the betrothal gift given by the Lu family, these little things were not worth mentioning at all. Although some people envied Feng Qingxue for having a good uncle and a good aunt, the impact of these things on them was far less sudden and shocking than the sewing machine and the bicycle.
After a while, the man went out, and Ma Haiyan started packing in front of Wang Fengqiao and Feng Qingxue.
There were many women watching the fun in the room. They saw her put the money and marriage prospects in the four corners of a box first, and then put the pair of leather shoes given by the Lu family and the three-joint leather shoes she bought for Lu Jiang in, with a pair of new socks in each shoe. Then she folded Feng Qingxue's new clothes and the red and blue square scarf and placed them on top of the shoes, and put a pair of bowls and chopsticks on top of the clothes.
Of course, except for the red shirt, black pants and Lan Tang leather shoes I'm going to wear tomorrow.
The last things put in were pillowcases, towels, combs, rakes and other things sent by each family, as well as vanishing cream and clam oil.
Wang Fengqiao then handed Ma Haiyan a rolling pin, two small baskets and two bags of fruit that she had brought with her. Ma Haiyan put them in, and then put in the wheat bran wrapped in red paper. Then she closed the box and locked it. She gave the key to Feng Qingxue and finally put a red paper seal on it.
As for the other box that Wang Zhengguo sent, it contained Feng Qingxue’s old clothes, old shoes and other things, and would not be taken away tomorrow.
Because the Lu family gave a box when they proposed marriage, Ma Haiyan packed a few new clothes that the Lu family gave to Feng Qingxue in it and sealed the box as a token of her appreciation. So the dowry box would go out with Feng Qingxue along with this box, instead of with the other box sent by Wang Zhengguo.
Boxes should be bought in pairs.
After finishing all this, I just have to wait for the real day tomorrow.

I said I would update this article at noon yesterday. I said I would update the article "Genius Calculation" at noon. Here is another article of mine. Cover your face.
I have a cold, so it’s already difficult for me to maintain my previous update pace. There’s no way I can update more for the time being.
