Chapter 602 Talking about Bride Price (Part Two)
Good, he's not greedy.
Their family has plenty of money; it's not that they can't afford the bride price, nor that they're unwilling to give it, but it's always unpleasant to hear them ask for a certain amount.
It feels more like a business transaction than a marriage alliance.
Just like her third son Huo Jianping's ex-girlfriend, knowing that her family was rich, she asked for 88.88 million yuan, plus a villa and a 5 million yuan car.
Honestly, their family can afford the bride price, but asking for it in this way is really offensive.
Bai Yunxiang then asked the other party what their dowry included.
The other party replied, "Your family is so well-off, why are you eyeing my dowry? That's too stingy! I've already given my daughter to your family, why would I need a dowry?"
Upon hearing the other party's reply, Bai Yunxiang felt that she couldn't become in-laws with such a person, because such a person wouldn't be able to raise a good daughter.
After returning home, she made her son break up with that girl.
Huo Jianping was very obedient and broke up with his girlfriend immediately.
As a result, the other party went around saying bad things about their family, saying that they were stingy and that even though they were so rich, they couldn't even give a dowry.
Zhang Yan continued, "My family gave me two shops, five houses, and five million yuan as dowry."
This is all of Zhang Yan's assets. Li Man married so well; if she doesn't give Li Man a generous dowry, her in-laws will look down on her.
Don't think that marrying into a wealthy family will solve everything. If you don't have an equal dowry, you will be looked down upon even if you marry into the family.
When talking to people, one feels inferior and as if one is a step below.
Although these things are insignificant to the Huo family, they represent their greatest sincerity.
She didn't mention betrothal gifts, but directly talked about dowry, hoping that the other party would give an equivalent betrothal gift based on the dowry she provided, so that neither party would take advantage of the other.
Seeing Zhang Yan's sincerity, Bai Yunxiang said, "Don't worry, my family will not mistreat Li Man. My two daughters-in-law have each received eleven million, so Li Man will naturally receive just as much."
Zhang Yan said, "You can give me whatever you think is appropriate. I'll have her take it back with her later."
Bai Yunxiang said, "This is for the young couple, and we won't take it back."
Zhang Yan nodded in satisfaction.
Then they discussed the timing of the betrothal gifts.
In short, all the necessary procedures and etiquette for a wedding will be followed, and there will be no neglect just because Riemann is getting married for the second time.
The two families had a very pleasant conversation and were both very satisfied with the meal.
...
After meeting Huo Jiansheng's parents, Zhang Yan took Li Man back to Ancheng the next day.
Because Huo Jiansheng's family will be sending betrothal gifts in a couple of days.
Back in Ancheng, Zhang Yan took Li Man to offer incense to Li Man's father and told him the good news.
"Man'er is getting married. Her fiancé's family is well-off, and he treats her very well. You can rest assured."
"You've met your son-in-law, the young man who bought you the scarf. Doesn't he look very handsome?"
"..."
Zhang Yan kept talking, while Li Man stood by, tears streaming down her face. She choked out, "Dad, don't worry, I've married very well this time."
"I'll be wearing a wedding dress when I get married, and you have to come see me then, okay?"
A butterfly was fluttering nearby. Suddenly, it flew in front of Riemann, landed on her shoulder, and kept flapping its wings, as if responding to her: "Okay."
Riemann looked at the butterfly, and tears streamed down her face.
