"Okay, I agree to this. Take the time to call home and ask your elders what they think. See if your parents have any plans for the wedding date."
"My grandfather said that he could trust Ning Yue's character, so he agreed to the marriage. However, because the two families were too far away, some things were inconvenient. He asked me to make the decision on the marriage myself, but it is best to set the wedding date. Soon, we will take Ning Yue back to meet her family at the end of the year."
Zhang Damei: I haven’t met you yet. Does the old man know what kind of person he is? It's just that Xiao Xu can talk and give face to his daughter.
As for the wedding date, since the in-laws also want to get married early, let's do it early to avoid people in the village continuing to spread gossip.
"Okay, then this matter is settled. You two will get married first, and Yueyue's room will be used as the wedding room temporarily. After a while, when the team is not so busy, we will allocate a piece of land for the homestead and build the house. "
Xiang Xiang, the great matchmaker, was anxious. If these two people continue to talk, nothing would happen to him. Then he, a matchmaker, is not sure about drinking. "What about the bride price? Do you have any requirements from your family?"
Zhang Damei said: "No requirement! The couple of us agreed to this marriage entirely because of Xiao Xu's character. I have been watching this child since he came to our village. I don't have to choose from anyone. He is willing to learn, capable and smart. Other men are so frivolous, I can rest assured if I leave my daughter to them!"
She is relieved, she is relieved, she is so relieved!
But what if she doesn’t say that?
Xu Yansheng: Okay, I understand. From now on, he has to study more, work more and use his brain more, and he has to stay far away from the women in and outside the village, otherwise his mother-in-law will not be able to rest assured!
Xu Yansheng said: "Since you didn't ask for it, I'll just give it to you. I'll buy a sewing machine, radio, and bicycle. She has a watch. I'll convert it into money directly. She has all the clothes, so the bride price won't be too much." A hundred dollars, maybe.”
Du Ermin's eyes, which were always squinted, were widened. Isn't the gift of 100 yuan not enough?
Don't look at Li Fugui and Zhang Chengrong who both ask for 1,000 in gift money. These are special circumstances.
There is something wrong with Li Fugui, he feels guilty so he gives more. Zhang Chengrong failed in many blind dates, but this time he fell in love with Da Ya at first sight, and he was so sweet that he was willing to give more.
Many girls in the village get married, and some don't even ask for a dowry. Of course, the family doesn't need to pay a dowry either. This 100 yuan betrothal gift is really a lot.
The most important thing is that the watch on my daughter’s hand was also given by this guy. He still wants to give me back the money, plus these things he mentioned——
How much will it cost to organize this wedding?
Zhang Damei said: "No, you two have to live together in the future, and you have to build a house after you get married..."
Xu Yansheng said: "It's fine if you don't build it. If you two elders don't mind us getting in the way, I would be more happy to live at home."
The Du family is not difficult to get along with. He was taken care of by her when he first came to the village. He is the most warm-hearted person. How can the character of the family be so bad?
When they move out, they both go to get off work and get off work at the same time. After get off work, they have to cook by themselves. How hard is that?
Might as well just live together!
Zhang Damei took a deep look at his future uncle. Really, this kid really didn't need to be so cruel to him. In order to reassure himself, he was even willing to be his son-in-law, right?
He quickly spoke to the principal: "Then let's set the wedding date today so that Xiao Xu can prepare early."
He showed with practical actions that he was still of some use, so Mr. Xu’s matchmaking banquet must not be skipped.
Xu Yansheng couldn't help but look at Ning Yue, and when he saw her hanging her head, he immediately looked away.
Zhang Damei said: "Well, it takes a while to prepare for the marriage..."
Xu Yansheng said: "You don't need to prepare anything at home. Tobacco, wine, tea, sugar, clothes, bedding, and the betrothal gifts I mentioned will all be mailed from the capital in seven days at most.
I don’t have any relatives here, so I just need to ask a few teachers from the school and a few educated youth from the educated youth center.
I still have some meat stamps on hand, and my family will mail me some more, but I don’t know how many tables my relatives here will prepare. "
Rumors in the village have been circulating for too long. Only by getting married quickly can this matter be settled.
Principal Xiang: Okay, I heard it. This guy really wants to get married right away. I usually look at this guy with a cold face, but I never noticed that he can be so impatient!
So, five minutes later, the wedding date of the two was decided, which was the sixth day of the fifth lunar month, which was next Saturday.
The moment Xu Yansheng saw Ning Yue nodding in agreement, he breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a sense of joy in his heart.
At noon, Principal Xiang and Xu Yansheng naturally stayed at the Du family for dinner. Even if something unexpected happened, the Du family's meal was still quite sumptuous. The meat tickets Ning Yue took made Dajiang go to the town and get two kilograms of fresh meat. The marinated meat and smoked chicken were saved these days.
Yesterday she also brought back a pair of quails, which happened to be braised today. Even the wild vegetables were especially delicious because of the many seasonings used.
Nodding to the principal while eating, Teacher Xu said that his decision to stay in the Du family was a wise one, and he would be very lucky in the future.
After the meal, Principal Xiang left first. Ning Yue finally asked, "How is the injury on your head?"
"It's already scarred. The medicine was changed when I was discharged from the hospital. The doctor said it will heal quickly. It will definitely be completely healed by the time we get married."
"But after all, you lost a lot of blood and your body looks quite weak. You need to eat more nutritious food."
Xu Yansheng said nothing.
Ning Yue thought for a while: "I'll bring you food tonight. Anyway, the two of us have already settled our affairs, and we're not afraid of being told by others."
"Don't you think the bride price is a bit small?"
Ning Yue said in surprise: "It's quite a lot, one hundred yuan. Our monthly salary is only twenty yuan. If we exchange for work points, we will have to save for ten months!"
Xu Yansheng kept staring into her eyes, as if trying to determine the authenticity of her words.
Ning Yue stared back at him!
Xu Yansheng suddenly chuckled, "My grandpa said that bicycles and sewing machines are very popular in rural areas, so you can't give too much as a gift..."
"I understand what the old man means, but for the things your family produces, even if you don't give a cent as a gift, you will still be discussed!"
"Then, you can't give nothing, right?"
Ning Yue said confidently: "Why don't you give it? They just talk about it. Am I the one who is afraid of other people's comments?"
Seeing her like this, Xu Yansheng couldn't help but chuckle, and then he took out a wad of money from his body and said, "Take this, your betrothal gift is only one hundred yuan, but my grandfather said, you are the first How can the bride price be less for a granddaughter-in-law who enters my Xu family?"
