Chapter 325
When grandma learned that Nuannuan and Yuanyuan were going to get married together, she was really happy, and her happiness was visible to the naked eye.
"Xiao Di, please accompany me to the gold shop. I want to prepare dowries for Nuan Nuan and the other two."
My grandmother hasn't spent much of her pension over the years. Especially after Xu Di started working, she almost stopped letting her grandmother support them, even though the old lady had quite a bit of money in her savings account.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Xu Di knew that her grandmother was happy. It was her own money, so she could spend it however she wanted and she wouldn't ask any questions.
Although the marriage has been decided, the specific details still need to be discussed by the man and the woman together.
The time is set for next weekend, and the three families will sit together to discuss it. They are all very busy, so I won’t talk about them individually. It will save time and effort to talk about them together. This was decided by the children.
Xu Di was also planning to prepare dowries for the children.
There is nothing else in the house, but the house and the store are all ready.
There are three courtyards, one for each person, and one room for each person in the shop, and the rest are theirs. There are also commercial housing near the hospital, one per household.
I don’t have much other cash. I’ve bought many houses in the past few years and haven’t saved much.
However, there are still some ginseng in the space, one for each person. However, Xu Di still needs to think about how to handle this matter and needs to find someone knowledgeable about it.
If she took out three fresh ginseng roots, she wouldn't be able to justify herself.
So, Xu Di is still hesitant about this matter.
The weather was getting warmer, so Xu Di pushed her grandmother to a department store near their home to look at gold jewelry.
"Grandma, what do you want to buy, a necklace or a ring?"
"I want to buy a full set, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings, and two large yellow croakers for each person. I'll keep these things for emergency use in case anything happens.
Xiaodi, you should choose a set too. Many people are wearing them now, unlike before when no one dared to wear them. ”
Grandma Qian was happy. If she didn't spend her money now, she could take it into the coffin when she died.
Tuantuan’s share was also bought. She doesn’t have a partner yet and doesn’t know when she will get married. She probably won’t be able to wait for that day.
"Okay, I'll buy it too."
Xu Di looked happy on the surface, but felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
She knew that her grandmother was making plans for the future, and she understood it very well.
The two of them wandered around the jewelry shop for a long time and bought seven sets of gold jewelry. In addition to Nuannuan and the other three, they also prepared sets for Xuanhe, Chenxin, Xuanyi and Xuanrui.
Grandma bought Xu Di a beautiful gold bracelet.
"Grandma, let's go back first. You've been out for a long time and you must be tired."
"I am a little tired. Let them take these things home."
The old lady was tired, so Xu Di pushed her home.
After a while, the manager of the gold shop and the security guards brought over the items they bought.
Xu Di put the things away first and waited until grandma had a good rest.
In the afternoon, grandma is going to the bank to buy gold bars.
"Grandma, let's go tomorrow. There's no rush."
"Go ahead, buy it, and I won't worry about it anymore."
The old lady insisted, so Xu Di took her to a bank near her home and bought six gold bars.
"Xiao Di, keep these and divide them among Nuan Nuan and the other two. Forget about the others.
When I pass away, the money left in the passbook will be enough to cover my funeral expenses. ”
"Grandma, why are you saying this? Didn't we agree to live a long life and watch the country become better and better?"
Xu Di felt sad. Her relationship with her grandmother was much better than that with her parents.
"Xiao Di, everyone has this day, I am already much luckier than others.
Having lived for a few decades longer, she has seen many things that they have not seen or eaten.
You have taken care of grandma for so many years, and grandma is very grateful. ”
The old lady is not confused at all and lives a clear and transparent life.
"Grandma, let's go home first. The Situ family and the Jiang family will come over to discuss the wedding this weekend, so we have to prepare for it."
"Okay, let's go home."
When it comes to the topic of death, no one can really face it calmly, and everyone has some evasive mentality.
The weekend is coming soon, and the Situ and Jiang families are also coming to visit.
None of the families were ordinary ones, so they didn't go out to discuss the marriage. It would be better to stay at home because there would be too many people around and it would be too gossipy.
Moreover, the man's visit to the woman's home to discuss the marriage also shows his appreciation for the bride.
"Mom and Dad, the entrance to the alley is just ahead. Chenxuan's house is the third one."
Jiang Huai sat in the passenger seat and introduced the location of Chen Xuan's house to his parents. The last time the parents of both sides met was outside, and it was the first time his parents came to Chenxuan's house.
"This place is very close to Beijing University and the environment is pretty good."
Father Jiang is currently working in Beijing and was transferred here last year. Jiang Huai's eldest brother was transferred out of the capital last winter to gain experience in other provinces, and his wife and children followed him.
"Chenxuan's yard is in a good location, and they grow vegetables, raise chickens, and have fruit trees in the backyard.
They have had it since they were young, and it has been more than ten years, almost twenty years. ”
Jiang Huai also helped to turn the soil, plant vegetables, and pick eggs. It was quite novel.
"We're here. Angkor, please find a place to park the car. It's not convenient to park here."
Jiang Huai got out of the car, took out the things in the trunk, and went into the yard with his parents.
Situ Luo's family has already arrived. They are closer and more convenient.
"Uncle, aunt, you are here, please come in."
Yuanyuan was there to greet them in the yard. She had met Jiang Huai's parents several times and they got along pretty well.
"Chen Xuan, have Brother Situ and the others arrived?"
"Just arrived a while ago, they are close."
Yuanyuan and Jiang Huai secretly held hands. What a great thing! They were getting married.
When Xu Di saw Jiang Huai and her daughter come in, several people stood up to greet them. From then on, they would have more opportunities to meet each other.
When Situ Luo's parents and Jiang Huai's parents met for the first time, Xu Di introduced both parties.
They were all people who had seen big scenes, and they greeted each other politely.
Jiang Huai's parents went to visit grandma again before returning to the living room to talk.
"Everyone, don't be restrained when having tea. We are gathered together because of the children, and it is also fate."
Although Zhang Chaoyang was not wearing a military uniform today, his aura could not be ignored when he sat there.
"Yes, we will get to know each other better over time, as we'll have more opportunities to meet each other in the future."
Xu Di and Situ Luo's parents are familiar with each other. They live in the same alley, and they and Situ's mother are both teachers at Peking University.
Jiang Huai's mother looks very kind. She is a literary and artistic worker and has a good temperament.
Jiang Huai's father is a politician. He doesn't show much expression on his face, so he must have strong self-control ability.
The three parents got to know each other for a while and began to discuss the details of the wedding.
Today's topic is the wedding venue and the bride-picking ceremony. As for the betrothal gifts and dowry, I won't go into details.
Nuannuan and the others discussed it and decided that they didn't want to make the scene too big, just keep it cozy.
Especially the identities of some of them, it is really not suitable for them to be high-profile.
Situ Luo's parents are both teachers, so their interpersonal relationships are relatively simple. They also don't want their son's wedding to become a social venue for people to make connections.
The Jiang family should be especially careful because their identities are there.
Finally, the three families reached a consensus and they booked a restaurant together so that the two couples could celebrate together.
Don’t send out too many invitations. Just invite your closest relatives and good friends. Don’t invite those who are not really interested in doing the job.
When children get married, it should be warm and romantic, and don't put the cart before the horse.
The trilateral meeting went smoothly and there were not many differences. If there were different opinions, they were resolved through discussion.
At noon, the three families sat together and had a simple home-cooked meal, and then dispersed in the afternoon.
Jiang Huai and Situ Luo will take care of other things, so the others don’t need to be busy.
The wedding date was set for mid-June, which was also a weekend.
As for the marriage certificate, I got it a long time ago!
