Lai Yanping and Huang Li knew that their niece was good in every way. They were also worried that Song Zhiyao would not be able to cook in the future. Who would cook at home in the future? Now when they heard that Qin Hanchen could cook, it was natural for his parents to do so. They did not give Song Zhiyao a cold shoulder because she was not good at cooking.
Let them put their minds at ease. Their own daughter doesn't know anything, but in their hearts she is the best. But they also know that most families are looking for a wife, not a young lady.
Now all the problems have been solved. The people who originally wanted to test Qin Hanchen are becoming more and more satisfied, and Lai Minghua no longer finds fault with him.
Even Song Zihao did not feel dissatisfied at this moment. In his opinion, his elder sister was good at everything except cooking. Now he did not have to worry about it anymore, as his elder sister would not be hungry in the future.
The atmosphere among the elders was very good, and so was the atmosphere among the younger generations. Lai Minghua and Deng Bo were directly arm in arm with Qin Hanchen, and they could chat with each other since they were of similar age.
Lai Tingting pulled Song Zhiyao aside and said that she was very happy for her cousin, "Zhiyao, your boyfriend's family is really nice. They didn't have any complaints from the beginning to the end, and they didn't dislike the small place here.
I’ve seen people in our family compound who are also from the capital before. I don’t know how high their noses are raised, and they are full of disdain.”
The Qin family's performance was indeed very good. Song Zhiyao had made plans before they came. If they dared to dislike her family, no matter how suitable they were for Qin Hanchen, there would be no further follow-up after this time.
Liu Ruihui and Lin Xiuyun were also very satisfied. The old couple didn't say much, but just watched them from the side, drinking tea quietly with smiles on their faces.
Nowadays, many young people pursue love, but their families oppose their marriage, and not many of them have a good result in the end. After marriage, there are the daily necessities of life and all kinds of trivial matters.
A marriage will be happy only if both sets of parents are satisfied and bless it. At least the two young people don't have to have any scruples or think so much and can just focus on living their own lives.
This meeting was very successful. They had similar tastes during the meal. They could eat both spicy and non-spicy dishes. Qin Wenlong even chatted with Song Yuanzhou.
They are both of similar age, both are educated people, and have their own way of speaking. More importantly, both fathers want the best for their children.
The two mothers also held hands and acted like sisters. Together with the cheerful Huang Li, the three of them talked and laughed. Huang Li shared her experience in raising grandchildren with them.
The two mothers haven't even gotten married yet, but they are already thinking about their grandchildren. The topics they talked about made Song Zhiyao, who was not shy at all, blush for a moment, and Qin Hanchen was even more looking forward to having children in the future.
After the meal, Qin Wenlong said directly, "They want to start a family here but they don't have a house, so we plan to buy a house for the children, a bigger one so that we have a place to stay when we come.
We will give the necessary gifts for buying a house, 1,000 yuan, and as for the big items, I don’t know if the children need them, we will give them another 500 yuan to buy them themselves.”
The Qin family's generosity stunned everyone present. When Lai Tingting and Deng Bo got married, the dowry for the two was only 200 yuan, and the same was true for Lai Minghua and Xiao Yu.
Lai Yanling did not expect the Qin family to be so generous, but Song Yuanzhou was very calm. "As parents, we are happier than anything else because our two children can live a good life. If you ask me, our family will also pay half of the money for the children's marriage and house purchase.
Song Yuanzhou's words surprised Yang Qian and Qin Wenlong. They didn't expect that the Song family would not even blink an eye at the sight of so many dowries, but instead gave them directly to their daughter.
The money for buying a house will be shared equally between them. Qin Wenlong quickly refused, "Yuan Zhou, the money for buying a house will naturally be paid by our family, and the betrothal gift will also be left to your family. I have plans for the money for the children to settle down."
Lai Yanling then spoke up, "We are marrying off our daughter, not selling her. With such conditions, we must prepare for the child. The father of the child said that we should prepare for the child, which is natural."
There was no other way as the family was poor. Song Yuanzhou came back with a large sum of money in his passbook. Moreover, he had a high salary every month. She also had a salary, so naturally she wanted to give her daughter the best.
It will cost a lot of money after the two children get married, and having children will also cost a lot of money. So prepare more for them while they are married.
What's more, their family does not favor boys over girls, and has never thought of keeping the daughter's betrothal money at home.
For a while, the two families argued endlessly, both believing that their children should not suffer any loss in marriage, and all the money should be divided equally between the two families.
Lai Yanping, the uncle, said, "No one of you can convince the other, so let's just do it this way. No matter what the cost, the family will pay half for the house, and Zhiyao will use the betrothal gift for her family. It doesn't matter who marries into whose family, we will just form a new family."
Qin Wenlong and his wife had thought that Song Zhiyao should marry into their family, but now after hearing what Lai Yanping said, the two children would form a new family, not marry into anyone's family.
Liu Ruihui, the oldest, spoke up, "Yan Ping always says that it's a different era now, as long as the children live well, you should stop arguing, just half for each family."

The elders said so and they thought so too. Yang Qian also felt it was okay. She didn't want to be a wicked mother-in-law, nor did she want her daughter-in-law to be like other families.
After both parties reached an agreement, they discussed how big a house to buy for the children. It would be best if they had a small yard where they could grow some flowers or vegetables.
When they have children, they can let them play in the small courtyard. It is not like the tube-shaped building they live in now, with so many people living on one floor. It is inconvenient to talk to each other, and if they speak louder, the neighbors can hear them.
The two children are researchers and they also need to have their own secrets. It would not be good to buy a house that is too small, and we cannot decide where and how big the house should be at the moment.
"Yanling, please pay more attention to the house matter. It's troublesome for us to come to the capital, and they both need your care." Yang Qian was also embarrassed and said apologetically.
Lai Yanling continued, "Sister Yang, look at what you said. It's okay for me to be busy when I have time. If the children want to go to the capital to develop in the future, you will still be busy."
Finally, they discussed the wedding date for the two children and set it in June, which would be one week after Song Ruyun and Qin Hanzhen had finished the college entrance examination and the results were released.
