Chapter 268
Only then did the couple come to their senses, as if Xiao Lan was a little anxious, as if she was afraid that Hongye would go back on her word.

Why are you in such a hurry?
Shall we meet tomorrow?

Da Zhuang Niang told Xiao Lan and Da Lin that they would take people into the mountains next, and they would be busy talking about it.

The couple thought to themselves, yes, they will flee the famine in a short time, so everything about their marriage should be kept simple.

But Ling'er's mother's words subverted their inherent thinking.

"The meeting place is set to be at the restaurant in Furong Town. I will pick you up in a carriage tomorrow."

According to Xiao Lan's thinking, after all, they had to meet formally first.

As for the official meeting place, Yang Hongye's parents thought it would be good to meet at home.

However, in Xiao Lan's view, it must be done in a big way, and it must be done grandly!
This is the most important happy event in the family she is closest to when she came to this world.

It must be a big deal, a formal meeting,
However, when it was revealed that they met at a restaurant in Furong Town, they were taken aback.

They have only heard about the high consumption of restaurants in Furong Town, and have never eaten there.

Dalin does business with Shopkeeper Gu. Compared with their family, one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.

It is daunting and unattainable!

Is smoke rising from their ancestral grave?
Oh, no, I have to go and see if it's the ancestral grave?
How could such a good marriage fall on her own daughter?

There seems to be only one word to describe Xiao Lan and Mrs. Li's actions, and that is "hao".

We have finalized the time and place to meet tomorrow.

The carriage will take their family of three to Furong Town, Xiao Lan and Mrs. Li will arrange and wait in Furong Town in advance.

After hearing this, the old couple were still in a cloud of mist and dizzy.

If they hadn't seen the two gift lists on the table, they would have thought they were dreaming!
A piece of paper said the gift from Aunt Li.

The other one is Xiao Lan's dowry to Hongye.

Yang Hongye's parents held it and looked at it for a long time, but they didn't see why.

Because they were illiterate, the two decided that he would take these two pieces of paper to the private school to find Liu Sheng and ask what was written on it?
When they arrived, Liu Sheng was teaching the children how to read in a private school.

When the old couple showed up with these two red papers, Liu Sheng was a little surprised.

There is only one single daughter in the old couple's family. Of course, there are no particularly young children. It should not be a matter of asking children to go to school.

He asked the children to review the words they had just learned, and he walked over to talk to the old couple, "Uncle Yang, Aunt Yang, what do you want?"

The old couple handed the red paper in their hands to Liu Sheng, and said, "Liu Liusheng, please show me these two gift lists."

"Our old couple can't read, read it to us, what is written on these two pieces of paper?"

Liu Sheng muttered, "Bride gift."

bride price?

He couldn't help asking, "This is, whose bride price is this?"

The old couple wanted to know what was written on the red paper, and eagerly urged, "Whose gift can it be? We only have one daughter in our family. What is written on the gift list?"

That's right, Yang Hongye has reached the age of marriage, just look at the red paper in his hand.

Liu Sheng lowered his head to look at the gift list, and he took a deep breath after scanning it once.

He couldn't help but look up at the old couple, who is so arrogant, and there are dozens of gift lists listed.

Liu Sheng was a little surprised by the urgent look in the eyes of the old couple.

Liu Sheng asked, "Who is this gift list for your family?"

The old couple looked at each other without speaking.

Liu Sheng suddenly felt strange, but he didn't ask again, and read out all the words on the betrothal gift list one by one.

wild boar, six

hares, twenty
Thirty pheasants
Goats, two, one male and one female

a horse

carriage, a

Gold and silver jewellery, twelve pieces
Engagement bride price, 600 taels,

This suddenly stunned the old couple. They only listened to the previous things, and everyone didn't think anything. Even rich families should be able to come up with these things.

But just for the engagement, he gave 600 taels of silver.

This is money. Whose family is so good that they can pay 600 taels of silver to marry their daughter at once. Liu Sheng knows the situation of their family very well.

Did Yang Hongye hug a gold brick?

The in-laws gave such a good betrothal gift, but it was just an engagement gift, not a wedding gift.

Liu Sheng suddenly felt too curious, but seeing Yang Hongye's parents frowning, it seemed that there were a lot of things going on here, so he decided not to ask.

When the news comes out, everyone will know.

In fact, the family background of Lao Yang's family is similar to that of everyone in Li's Village, or even worse. There are two sick children in the family.

It was just after following Xiao Lan into the mountains recently, hunting and picking, and now every household has earned a little silver taels, but the old Yang family only has one daughter, Yang Hongye, but her ability is limited, and she only picks some dried vegetables and fruits.

Their family didn't have a lot of money, who gave so much money to marry Yang Hongye?
Liu Sheng looked at another piece of red paper handed over by the old couple. The two large characters on it were dowry.

He looked at the old couple suspiciously, did you pay the dowry?

Seeing the old couple, they were dull and didn't know how to respond.

Liu Sheng looked at the old couple, and then continued talking.

My goodness, Liu Sheng has a hundred thousand horses galloping by inside of him.

This old Yang family's dowry is not less than the dowry list just now, even more!
The object written on the first line made Liu Sheng wonder if he was blind?
Twenty pieces of gold and silver jewellery.

Gold and silver jewelry?Twenty more?
Lao Yang's family took over the jewelry shop?

So proud!
Twenty bags of rice noodles each?
Return a carriage?
He rubbed his eyes, there are so many, he didn't read wrong at all!
The dowry silver is 1000 taels! ! !

Hehe, even the wealthy households in Furong Town have never seen 1000 taels of silver!
This, this is a big deal!

Can the old couple afford this dowry?This is 1000 taels of silver.

He took a look at the clothes of the old couple, not to mention patches after patches, but the clothes they wore were not much better.

It's worse than the clothes I'm wearing!

At best, it could be called clean and tidy, but it had already been washed and turned white, and the cuffs were all unthreaded.

But he was not mistaken, it was indeed a dowry list.

It's just that the dowry list clearly stated 1000 taels, and he could still believe that his old couple had given out ten taels of silver.

It's just 1000 taels of silver, isn't that too outrageous?

All the people in Lijia Village have a thousand taels of silver, which is not bad.

Even with his own hard work, there are only less than 100 taels in his family, let alone a small girl like Yang Hongye.

Oh, this can't be said, Xiao Lan is not among the little girls, Xiao Lan is the big heroine.

Liu Sheng couldn't help asking, who is going to marry your daughter?
