Chapter 1388
"In short, you just have to be aware of this matter. You must not say that it was me who said it.
Otherwise, she will have no place in the Yuan family.
Xu Wanning nodded: "Thank you for the reminder. Don't worry, this will definitely not be said to be you who told me
. Mao Qingqing felt relieved and left with the dried plums given by Xu Wanning.
At this time, the betrothal gifts of the Yuan family and the Lin family were also decided.
Xu Huajing originally planned to prepare a gift of 3,000 yuan for Yuan Yuqing that day, three turns and one ring, and two new clothes.
As for the dowry for Lin Wansheng, it will be determined based on the betrothal gift given by the Yuan family.
Lin Wansheng's two houses and the savings she has accumulated over the years are all her own money and are not included in the dowry. The so-called dowry must be prepared by them as parents.
Regarding their three children, Xu Huajing and Lin Jishang have always treated them equally and would not say who should be given more and who should be given less.
As for the Yuan family, Yuan Yusheng prepared a gift of five thousand yuan, as well as three turns and one ring and two pieces of gold jewelry.
Yuan Yuqing's parents prepared a dowry of 3,000 yuan for her, as well as two Plum Blossom watches, one for each of Yuan Yuqing and Lin Maoqing.
Xu Huajing didn't expect that the Yuan family would be so generous. In comparison, the betrothal gift she originally planned seemed a bit inadequate.
"We will give Yuqing a dowry of 6,000 yuan, three rings and three pieces of gold jewelry. And Wansheng will give a dowry of 5,000 yuan, and also buy a bicycle for Yu Sheng. Do you think this is appropriate? "
Hearing this, Yuan Yusheng's mother and Yuan Yuqing's mother looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"The in-laws don't need to prepare so much for the bride price and dowry. After all, both Mao Qing and Wansheng have houses. But right now, our family does not have the conditions to prepare a house for our two children, so we can only prepare a house for the bride price and dowry. It's time to make up for it. If the bride price and dowry you gave are also compared to us, it will seem like our family has nothing.
Xu Huajing said: "You can't say that. Betrothal gifts and dowries are what we, as parents, prepare for our children. As for the house, it's their own, it's different. Besides, no matter how much or how little, they will bring it to their small family in the future, which can be considered as a contribution to their small family.
"If you don't have any objections, then let's just
settle the matter of the betrothal gift and dowry. " Both families were very satisfied.
Soon it was time for dinner, and the female members of the Yuan family all went to work in the kitchen. Yang Jiali
had no choice but to get up and leave the elders' table, and walked slowly to Xu Wanning's side.
You said you opened several restaurants. Is this true? "
Obviously, Yang Jiali was smiling when she spoke, but Xu Wanning always felt that her smile had some evil intentions.
She glanced at Yang Jiali and responded in a calm tone: "Well, I did open two restaurants.
"Then your cooking skills must be amazing, right? How about you show us your skills today?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole house was in an uproar.
Yang Jiali's father hurriedly scolded: "Jiali, do you understand the rules! Comrade Xu is a guest today, how can there be any reason to let the guests cook?"
Hearing this, Yang Jiali stuck out her tongue, "Oh, I didn't mean it. I just thought, we are all a family anyway, and I also want to taste Sister Wanning's craftsmanship. Sister Wanning, please don't be as knowledgeable as me!"
Although Yang Jiali said her apology, she There was no apology in his eyes, and it was obvious that he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
In other words, she did it on purpose.
But, what is her purpose?
Do you simply want to increase your presence in front of Xu Wanning, or do you want to use this to give Xu Wanning a show of strength?
No matter which one it is, I have to say that this person is stupid.
Xu Wanning usually looks friendly, but she is not a person who would let herself suffer.
Even if the Lin family and the Yuan family were to get married, there was no reason for her to swallow this bad breath alive.
"I heard that Comrade Yang is the editor of the Beijing Daily. It stands to reason that he should know the rules very well, but your behavior today obviously has nothing to do with the rules. Or are you targeting me deliberately?"
" If you are targeting me deliberately, can I ask why? Did my presence affect you?"
Yang Jiali looked unkind.
She thought that Xu Wanning was easy to handle when she looked at Rourou and was weak, but she didn't expect that she would be so difficult to bully with a knife hidden in her smile.
She muttered: "I told you that I didn't mean it. Even if I said something inappropriate for the occasion in a hurry, you wouldn't be aggressive, right?"
"Is it my sister who is being aggressive or you who is bullying?" Xu Maoning blocked Xu Wanning. He spoke for her in front of him: "Anyone with a long brain would never let someone who comes to visit for the first time cook. What's more, even if the Lin family and the Yuan family are married, my sister is just a relative!"
"You said such words on purpose. It's hard for me not to suspect that you are deliberately instigating the relationship between the Yuan family and the Lin family. Could it be said that your real purpose is to disrupt my cousin's marriage? You look like a big boss. After being in society for so many years, don’t you even understand these principles?”
“I’m not, I don’t, don’t talk nonsense!”
“Jiali, apologize quickly.” Yang Jiali’s mother said
, It felt like dozens of people in the whole courtyard were staring at her, which was really uncomfortable.
She could only apologize to Xu Wanning reluctantly: "Comrade Xu Wanning, I'm sorry just now, I'm really sorry. It's just an honest mistake, there is no other meaning. Don't take it
seriously. Xu Wanning said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I don't share your experience. After all, a kind-hearted person with a long brain would not say such a thing on such an occasion.
This sentence made Yang Jiali burst into tears.
Didn't she just say something wrong? As for treating her like this?
With red eyes, she found Lin Yaozong in the crowd and whispered: "Comrade Yaozong, is your cousin really this?" You misunderstood me. You have always had a good relationship with your cousin. Can you explain it to her for me? I don't want to affect my cousin and Yuqing's marriage because of me.
Lin Yaozong asked inexplicably: "Why do you think you can affect their marriage? You are you, they are them. As adults, we have the ability to distinguish right from wrong." Ability, it is impossible to annul such a good marriage just because of your words
. "No, I..."
Lin Yaozong was unwilling to listen to Yang Jiali's nonsense and went directly to Xu Wanning.
Although Yang Jiali looks sweet, Lin Yaozong doesn't like this.
