"Father, mother, my son went to see Huayue today, and bought six boxes of betrothal gifts. I will go out and buy another six boxes tomorrow."

"How much dowry will our family give to her family?"

"How about a thousand gold coins?"

"Okay, one thousand gold coins is equivalent to the income of our fruit and vegetable shop for several years, so it should be reasonable."

"As for the other betrothal cakes, we will wait until the time comes, otherwise they will be spoiled."

"Uh-huh"

"Have you bought silver and gold jewelry?"

"Not yet, first I picked up some big items and bought some, such as large blue and white porcelain vases, cloth, tea leaves and so on."

"Leave the silver and gold jewelry to me and your mother. How can we make some money as old people? Otherwise, when the daughter-in-law knows the truth, she might blame us in her heart."

"Okay, so this counts as two lifts?"

"Four loads, six sets of silver ornaments and one load, a total of two loads, and six sets of gold ornaments are also made into two loads,"

"That's OK, that's ten liters, and the remaining 26 liters, I buy some every day, don't worry."

Unexpectedly, the next day, when Han Wen and Chen Xi came back, they each gave him a box of gifts.

"Brother, my sister and I originally wanted to prepare more gifts for you and sister-in-law, but you have made our identities like this, so that's all we can do."

Xi'er opened the two boxes and smiled, a box of ornaments prepared by the second son, and a box of fragrant soap prepared by the daughter.

"self-made?"

"Ah, the decorations are all made of wood. I carved them in my free time, but the wood is all good. Putting it in the house smells as good as burning sandalwood."

"Well, what about you?"

"Hee hee, the incense sticks are also made by my daughter. The ingredients in them are very pure. Not only is it fragrant, but it also has strong detergency. After one use, the fragrance lasts for a long time."

"It's classy, ​​plus your younger brother and sister's, 36 lifts, half of it, [-] lifts will be all in a few days."

Jinnian glanced at the Chinese text, "What about you? How about your marriage? Finding an orphan, will the dowry be saved?"

"No, it's true that she is an orphan, but she has her adoptive father and adoptive mother to support her, so this dowry gift is indispensable."

"You also hurry up and make it together, put it in the interspatial ring, and save trouble when the time comes."

"understood."

Xi'er looked at Xi'er, "What about you? Have you two made an agreement?"

"He agrees to become a married woman, but it's a little difficult to get out of the palace. Let's settle the matter of the eldest brother and the second brother first. My business is not in a hurry."

"You are not in a hurry, but you don't think about how old you are. Abducting such a tender young man, you should have mistaken him, but you."

"It doesn't matter, my daughter can afford to wait. Everyone has a love of beauty. My daughter can't afford to look bad. Besides, I didn't force him, he did it voluntarily."

"You three, you can't be normal, I'm so mad."

Three guys rushed to her, one beat her back, one pinched her shoulders, and the other smoothed her.

"Mother, don't be angry, don't be angry, your daughter-in-law and son-in-law will definitely be filial to you in the future."

Xi'er poked their foreheads with her fingers, pulled them away, and turned back to the back yard.

She doesn't want to be angry, the three children have lived a long life, no matter who they look for, that's their business, these are their virtues, how could she stop them.

It's just that she is not reconciled to assigning such excellent sons and daughters to an ordinary person.

However, thinking about Jin Nian, she felt relieved, let them do as they please, as long as they are happy, as an old man, she will help them, and if something happens in the future, she will be fine.

Soon came the day of employment, and Chen Yu booked six cars with the gangsters in the town on the first day.

Each car was equipped with six dowry gifts, plus the carriage of the family, a total of vehicles, and set off for Tongcheng before dawn.

Lu Juren also asked his servants to clean the house early, and ordered them to follow up at the gate of the mansion. The matchmaker will also come today.

Whenever she leaves, Chen Yu doesn't let her go empty-handed, as long as there is something here, she runs faster than anyone else.

Mrs. Lu looked down on gold ornaments, but Matchmaker Zhang liked them. Ordinary people don't even have gold coins, but she is here with Chen Yu, earning a lot of gold coins, and she is very contented.

As soon as Xi'er's family arrived at the gate of Lu's mansion, the servants of Lu's mansion set off firecrackers at the gate, and the next appointment would be lively. If it wasn't for the fact that the man's house was far away, Lu Juren would still want to ask his son-in-law to brag about it. .

Even firing the cannons took a full quarter of an hour before stopping. It seemed that he took this little daughter very seriously.

Xi'er's family also changed into new clothes. She and her daughter put their heads on their heads specially, and put some silver ornaments on their hands to show their solemnity.

After getting out of the car, they began to count the betrothal gifts on the car, ready to make no mistake, and settled the bill for the fool.

Lu Juren's family came out to welcome them, and in front of them, Chen Yu handed over the dowry list to Mrs. Lu.

"Uncle, aunt, please take a look?"

Mrs. Lu took the gift list unceremoniously, opened the box and inspected it carefully.

It didn't matter this inspection, it just dispelled her pent-up anger.

On the surface, 36 betrothal gifts are very common, but the number of betrothal gifts in each load is much more than usual, especially the ten sets of silver ornaments and ten sets of gold ornaments she proposed. This, there are ten sets of pearl ornaments inside, although there are no jade ornaments, but the pearls are also good, the anger in my heart, the more I look at it, the more I look at it, the smile on my face is like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Xi'er pursed her lips, looking at her expression, she knew she was quite satisfied, is that all she is happy for?If she saw the dowry gift that Jinnian gave her back then, would she faint on the spot?
Lu Juren was also present, and he was also very happy to see such a betrothal gift.

"Go, go, sit inside, sit inside"

The Lu family sat with Xi'er and the others in the living room, and Madam Lu also came after a while, and it was the first time she took the initiative to talk to Xi'er.

"Mother-in-law, although this dowry gift is average, I am very satisfied with the number of pieces inside. To tell you the truth, my little girl is a pain in the hands of our family. If this dowry gift is too bad, I will be your mother." It really hurts."

"Understood, the hearts of parents all over the world are for the good of their children. Most of these betrothal gifts are collected by Yu'er. There are only two boxes prepared by us as elders, and two boxes prepared by his younger brother and sister. Finally, we have enough. I hope my mother-in-law will not be disgusted."

"No, no, in the future, Huayue will pass through my family, and I hope my mother-in-law will take care of me more."

"Don't worry, I will treat Yue'er the same way I treat my daughter."

"I can rest assured that"

This is the first time the two have talked like this. Jinnian said in his heart that it is your blessing that my wife can talk to you. If you pick and choose again and want to talk to her in the future, she will not give a shit about you.

This is not a big talk, with Xi'er's current cultivation base and her status, the people she wants to talk to are those she approves of, and those who don't want to talk to are generally not in her heart.

Now for the sake of her children, it is against her heart for the wife not to force her to talk to her.

The appointment went smoothly. Lu Juren dragged Jinnian, drank a lot of wine, and was carried back to the backyard.

The big wedding is set on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, so if there is a day, there is hope, just wait for that day to come.

Anyway, she doesn't have any relatives or friends here. When the time comes to pick up her relatives, it's fine for the woman's family to invite them to the restaurant directly. If they want to stay at home, that's fine, just invite the cook of the restaurant to come home.

In short, if it can be solved with money, she is determined not to do it by herself, it's too tiring.

During these years of retreat, she didn't cook, even if she wanted to eat, she bought it, or Jinnian made it for her.

Maybe it's because she's getting old, she just wants to open her mouth and wait for her husband to feed her, but she just doesn't want to move.
