Chapter 153 Engagement Details
Qian Wangshi held Qian Maisui's hand with a look of reluctance.

"It's okay to be nice to you. Originally, mother thought that your father was in a hurry to go to Zhang's house to discuss the marriage. It was not good. There is no girl who is in a hurry. Now it seems that I may be thinking too much."

"Mother, it's not like you don't know who is in the old Zhang family. If you know the basics, don't worry about it."

"Did their family say when they got engaged?"

"Little Fifth Brother said he would go home and discuss it with his family first, and then tell us."

"Okay, then your father and I can rest assured." Qian Wangshi smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, "Come out and cook with mother after cleaning."

After speaking, he turned and left.

When Zhang Xiaowu got home, he was immediately called into the room by old man Zhang.

Discussed the matter of engagement.

It was agreed that the engagement time would be ten days later.

The three media and six hires must not miss one.

"Father, how much should we give as an engagement gift?" Zhang Xiaowu asked puzzled.

Other families in the village pay only two liang of silver for engagement gifts at most.

There are several of his sister-in-laws, one or two, and two or two.

"What do the rest of you have to say?" Old man Zhang looked at his sons except Zhang Laosi and asked.

It is said to ask a few sons, but in fact it is to ask a few daughter-in-laws for their opinions.

After all, they are the daughters-in-law of the old Zhang family. Although the bowl of water is not fair, they must always be informed.

"Father, we bastards don't understand this." Boss Zhang scratched his head, then turned to look at his wife beside him.

Mrs. Zhang Wang thought for a while, "Father, I was one tael of silver at that time, but now other people's family only has two taels of silver, not more than three taels, but our family has some savings now, and Maisui is also the daughter of the village chief's family, so we don't give much money. It's not good looking, so give me more."

"How much is appropriate?" Zhang Liu looked at the daughters-in-law sitting around.

"Father, mother, I don't think one or twenty taels is too much, and three to fifty taels is fine." Xiao Li has been doing business outside for so long, has seen a lot, and also has money in his hand, so the amount he said is not small.

"Our family has money, so it's okay to give more." Sun Taohua continued, although he felt a little uncomfortable, she only got three taels of silver when she got married three years ago, and now Zhang Xiaowu has to give so much gift when he gets married money.

But then she figured it out, she didn't need to pay for this gift money, and now the family's daily income is counted in two, so it doesn't hurt to give more.

Zhang Xiaowu knew that his father and mother held this family meeting to balance the minds of his sisters-in-law, so he had a new idea after thinking about it for a while.

"Father, mother, let's do this. I said it when we separated. The CCP's money in the family is used for past events, black and white weddings. When the sisters-in-law get married, the wedding banquet, gift money, etc. are all set up in four or five taels. of silver."

"If I spend too much on getting married, it's not appropriate."

"Xiao Wu, what do you say, we are all a family, so there is nothing suitable or inappropriate." Boss Zhang gave Zhang Xiao Wu a white look.

"That's right, Xiaowu, why do you say that?" Zhang Laosan followed closely behind.

The sons really don't care about how much money they have. Now each house has a lot of savings in their hands, and the family's business is booming day by day.

Right now, the cost of getting married is only a few dollars.

"For the matter of my marriage, my grandfather paid five taels of silver, and I paid for the rest myself." After Zhang Xiaowu finished speaking, he saw the others want to speak and waved his hand to stop them.

"I'm going to give 30 taels of gift money, and I have to carry eight sedan chairs, and I have to set up a water table when we get married, so I just pay the money myself."

After Zhang Xiaowu finished speaking, the others had nothing to say.

This marriage standard is indeed very high, even a bit extravagant, and it is not appropriate to ask the grandpa to pay for it.

Old Zhangtou and Zhang Liushi looked at each other, but didn't say anything.

Anyway, Zhang Xiaowu has a lot of private money.

"The matter of money has been decided, and the time of engagement has also been set. Let's wait until I go to Qingshan Temple to let the presiding officer get married on this auspicious day." Zhang Liu took a sip of chrysanthemum honey tea.

It tastes good.

"Okay." Zhang Xiaowu breathed a sigh of relief.

There are so many things about getting married.

In the evening, Zhang Xiaowu went to the village chief's house with two jugs of wine after dinner.

After eating, Qian Gui sat in the main room and waited, drank pot after pot of tea, and went to the hut several times.

"Uncle, I'm here." Zhang Xiaowu was a little less anxious when he entered the door this time than in the morning.

It really complied with that sentence, the first time is born and the second time is familiar.

"Come on, come on, look at you kid, you're taking things again. You took so many things in the morning, and there's no place to put them at home." Qian Guixiao's eyes narrowed.

While talking, he asked Qian Wangshi to put the wine in a side cabinet.

"I bought this from Fucheng. I came here in a hurry this morning, so I forgot to take it." Zhang Xiaowu scratched his head embarrassingly.

In the morning, I was so busy chasing ears of wheat that I forgot to take the wine.

"This is the mung bean cake made by Maisui Niang. It's hot and easy to get angry in autumn. Eat some mung beans to clear the heat."

"Okay." Zhang Xiaowu didn't refuse, picked up a piece and tasted it, and it tasted really good.

Qian Gui looked at Zhang Xiaowu with a kind and filial expression on his face.

It's really more pleasing to the eye.

"Father, Xiaowu eats a mung bean cake, what are you doing staring at?" Qian Dazhu was a little speechless, his father's smile never came off his face this day.

"Talking." Qian Gui gave him a blank look.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaowu quickly took a sip of water and swallowed the last bite of mung bean cake on his hand.

"Uncle, I'm here just to say something like you..."

The two of them talked for an hour before they settled on the rough charter of the in-laws.

"Uncle, Maisui and I will go to Fucheng again tomorrow, and we will come back before we get engaged. If there is anything or request in the middle, just tell my family."

Zhang Xiaowu's mouth was dry, and he realized that it was getting late, so he got up and prepared to leave.

"Okay, okay, I don't worry if you take care of things." Qian Gui nodded repeatedly.

Originally, he was still a little upset that such a big in-law matter, shouldn't the old Zhang's parents come to the door, but after hearing Zhang Xiaowu's arrangement, he was relieved.

This night, the group of people slept soundly.

The next day, after breakfast, Fu Bao and others went to Fucheng in a donkey cart.

Old Zhang's house.

"Have you hired a matchmaker?" Old Zhangtou asked.

"I originally wanted to go to the next village to find the matchmaker, but she hurt her leg, so I had to give up and went to Mrs. Qian Yu from the village head's family." Zhang Liu said after putting down the notebook in his hand.

"That's fine. The three media and six hires are indispensable, and Xiao Wu can't stay at home for two more days." Old Zhang knocked his head on the pipe.

"Brother Zhang, sister-in-law, are you at home?" Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Qian Yushi wore a deep red jacket today, and his hair was combed with pomade to shine.

It can be seen that it has been well tidied up.
