Zhaxi thought of something and said, "at the end of last year, Sangji's family came to talk about Dazhen's marriage. You said to wait. That's what you meant?"

Dazhen has been old for a long time, and Zhaxi, the man of the family, has seen it. Although the Sangji family is not very good, they can make do with it. Originally, Zhaxi wanted to decide the marriage at that time. Anyway, his daughter wanted to get married, either this or that family.

However, the wife didn't agree at that time. She said she would wait and want to stay in Dazhen for another year. It is estimated that she saw the gift Chaotianjiao bought for Dazhen. Dazhen may not know, but her mother saw Chaotianjiao's hidden intention and wanted to see who this young man was and when she would come to propose marriage.

If you are good, don't miss your daughter's good marriage. After all, their conditions here are just like that. They can't match those people who live in big cities.

At last, Zhaxi said, "go and ask what Dazhen means."

Zhaxi's wife waited for his words and went to her daughter's house.

Dazhen was sitting by the bed with a trance on her face.

Seeing his daughter's appearance, Zhaxi's wife knew that the story had already been changed.

"Do you want to marry him?"

"I don't know." Girls are ashamed to marry.

"You can't if you don't know. If you don't like it, your father and I will drive them back tomorrow and find a man for you in the clan."

Dazhen was a little flustered. "So fast? Don't think about it anymore? What do you and dad think? "

"I've discussed with your father. After all, Chaotianjiao's conditions are better than ours. It's not a loss for you to marry him, but it's too far away. It's inconvenient to get along with each other in the future, so it's up to you at last. If you want to marry me, my father and I won't object."

Dazhen was a little happy and nodded: "Chaoge is very nice. I I'll think about it again. "

As soon as he said that people are very good, he said it again. It was obviously for the sake of reserve that he said it. In fact, he thought he would be happy.

Zhaxi's wife didn't point it out, but said: "you see him very well now, but you didn't live with him, and you don't know his nature. For example, before I married your father, I didn't know that he snored, was a smoker, and didn't like to clean up, but what can you do after I married him, but if you feel that you can't get along with him after you married, life will be better If you don't want to go down, don't force yourself to come home. You'll have a good meal at home. "

Dazhen's eyes were red and nodded.

Along with Zaxi came Zaxi's brother and three members of his son's family. The other two did not know each other and were said to be relatives.

Chaotianjiao and desang are also acquaintances. Desang's son is six years old this year, and he has been riding around since he was six years old.

Waiting for the mood is always uneasy and uneasy, at night Chaotianjiao hard to do a meal, stewed beef got everyone's praise.

People except Zhaxi and desang are very curious about qingtingfang and the big city, so Jianglu and Qingning finally find their own use. They praise Chaotianjiao openly and secretly, and they don't lose the face of these nomads. Everyone is very happy.

The next day, Zhaxi talked to Chaotianjiao alone. The whole conversation was very peaceful. After all, he was an acquaintance. It was because he knew the details well that Zhaxi didn't embarrass Chaotianjiao. Knowing that he sincerely wanted to marry his daughter and would be good to her, it was settled.

Zhaxi and his wife agreed, but Dazhen didn't object. Zhaxi's parents were very satisfied with his son-in-law, and others had no opinions.

The next step is to get married on an auspicious day.

They didn't say anything about the eight characters, but they had to offer sacrifices to heaven and ask for instructions from the gods, but it was basically a process.

Now start to choose a lucky day, either in summer, or have to wait until autumn, summer certainly not, so the wedding day is set in the Mid Autumn Festival.

At that time, Chaotianjiao will first come here to greet the bride, and then the bride will take a carriage to the city of Hezhou and go to the other side of the park to worship. The worship hall has to be in auspicious time, so the wedding procession must start more than a month in advance.

Everyone talked about the day together, and Zhaxi also prepared her daughter's dowry.

When they marry their daughters here, they usually have five big felt pieces of good material and twenty sheep. If they have good conditions, there will be more.

But in contrast, the bride price from the man's side must be more. When Sangji's family came to say goodbye, they promised to give their family 300 sheep.

When a daughter gets married, she becomes someone else's person. In the future, when she gives birth to a child to the other person, the bride price is the default number. Generally speaking, the number of 100 sheep is the starting point. The more you value it, the more you give it. 300 is a good number.

But Zhaxi did not marry his daughter to anyone who gave more, otherwise he would not have listened to his wife's words and refused to wait for Sangji's family.

Chaotianjiao is from the Central Plains. There must be no sheep. It is said that they are very particular about the betrothal gifts, but they don't know much about Zhaxi. They can figure out how much it cost.

Tashi didn't want to make her daughter look too shabby, so the amount of dowry was thought about again and again.

They have already prepared the best felt. There are ten. How many sheep are thereSeeing that there were 500 sheep on the dowry gift list, Chaotianjiao was surprised. He thought he had read it wrong. But when he looked carefully, it was 500 sheep, and his expression was a little sad.

What does he want so many sheep for? He has no place to raise them, and he can't eat them all. Moreover, he doesn't have so many sheep in Zhaxi's family.

He took up his pen and drew two lines horizontally and vertically on the character "100" to change it into "Five" and "ten".

Zhaxi was worried: "ah, what's the matter with you? How dare you change the gift list given to you by your father-in-law?"

Chaotianjiao: "my father-in-law, let's take care of my son-in-law. We have to eat so many sheep until the end of the year. We'll be tired of eating every day. Moreover, we can't raise so many sheep in the park. I'm willing to marry Dazhen even if she doesn't have a dowry."

Zhaxi: "fifty is too little! If you can't, I'll raise it for you. If you want to eat, you'll come back and get it. "

Chaotianjiao: "no, that's too tired. Fifty."

Zhaxi said, "less, four hundred."

Chaotianjiao does not waver: "fifty."

"Two hundred."

"Fifty."

"One hundred and five!"

"Fifty."

"One hundred, no less!"

"Fifty."

"Go away, don't marry!"

Chaotianjiao is definitely the first person in history who is crazy about too much dowry.

Jianglu and Qingning were almost laughing beside them.

Sometimes it's a headache to twist the pepper, but in the end, the father-in-law won and finally decided to make a dowry of 100 sheep.

Originally, there were not enough sheep at home. Zaxi wanted to go to other stores to buy some, but now he doesn't need them.
