Chapter 189 Negotiating the Bride Price



The three men came on bicycles, and there were things hanging on the back of the three bicycles. Everyone was curious about whose guests these were.

"What's the noise outside?" The sister-in-law stood on tiptoe to look outside the yard.

Old Mrs. Xu and Old Mr. Xu probably guessed it.

"Oh, hello, in-laws. I'm so sorry. We two have been together for a while, and this is our first visit. I hope you don't mind." Father Gu walked into the yard with a smile on his face.

When the people outside heard this man calling himself a relative, they immediately started talking.

"Hey, you're here to ask for Meili's hand in marriage, right?"

"This Xu family is quite powerful. They are so quiet and yet they actually found an in-law in the city."

"What's the story?"

"I don't know, but...I saw a woman here yesterday."

"It seems like the Xu family is really going to produce a golden phoenix."

Mr. and Mrs. Xu came out to greet them in their most respectable clothes. "How could that be? We all know you're busy with work. Come in."

"Hello, uncle and aunt." Xu Meili looked at Gu's parents with a smile.

"Good boy, thank you for your hard work."

"We will definitely compensate you."

Father Gu is not the kind of person who lacks foresight. It won't do any harm to be nicer to his daughter-in-law.

Gu Kai winked at Xu Meili from behind.

When Gu's mother saw this, she rolled her eyes at her son, and only then did Gu Kai calm down.

"Have tea, have tea." Mr. Xu naturally would not slap his daughter in the face at this time. He took out all the good things in his home to entertain the guests.

We can’t let the Gu family look down on our Xu family and thus despise our daughter.

"Wow, the tea is good." Father Feng nodded with satisfaction.

Father Feng has tasted all kinds of tea, but this tea is considered good for the Xu family.

"This is a gift from my third son, but I've never been willing to drink it."

"Haha, then I owe it to the kids." The two men chatted more easily, but the two women felt awkward.

Father Feng saw what was happening and took over the topic. "We're here today to apologize to you. Gu Kai was too reckless. I beat him up when I got home yesterday. Luckily, my in-laws are generous and didn't bother with him."

"Secondly... let's discuss the betrothal gift. I figured it would be a good idea to do it as soon as possible since it's almost the end of the year. It's a good opportunity for us to have a new member of our family and share in the good fortune."

"That's what we mean. Although we are reluctant to part with this child, we can see that your Gu family is a good family and will not mistreat Meili, so we have nothing to worry about."

Mr. Xu can also say polite words. After all, he has visited his in-laws many times and has experience, so he chooses the nice ones to say.

While praising, it is also a reminder to the Feng family to be good to beauty.

"Haha, okay, since my in-laws are so quick to speak, I'll just tell you about our family's arrangements."

"We have two sons, but don't worry, we will treat them equally and the betrothal gift will be based on the eldest son's wife."

"The bride price is 666 yuan, two sets of clothes, a watch, a pair of leather shoes, and a complete set of furniture with 36 legs."

After Mr. Feng finished speaking, his sister-in-law, who had secretly heard it outside, was so shocked that her jaw dropped.

My sister-in-law’s betrothal gift is so much!
