The door opened again, and Cheng Wanshan and Su Qing entered together.
Cheng Wanshan looked anxious and walked directly to Cheng Xiang's room.
He asked loudly: "Cheng Xiang, what's wrong with you? Do you want to move your household registration?"
Cheng Xiang said calmly: "Yes, I took the household registration book and will send it back to you after using it."
Cheng Wanshan said sternly: "Are you crazy? There are so many people begging grandpa and grandma to register in the city, and you just throw it away like this?"
Cheng Xiang looked at Cheng Wanshan coldly and said, "How can I get a marriage certificate if I don't move? How can I get married? Why didn't you want me to marry in the countryside? Otherwise, we won't get married?"
Cheng Xiang looked at Cheng Wanshan.
Cheng Wanshan suppressed his anger and said seriously: "The marriage must be completed, but the household registration does not necessarily have to be moved. There will definitely be a way."
Cheng Xiang sneered: "Forget it, if you marry a chicken, you will follow the dog. If you marry a farmer, you will become a farmer. Don't worry about it, lest it violates your principles and affects your career."
Cheng Xiang hit the point with a sentence, but Cheng Wanshan clicked his tongue, glared at her, and was about to speak.
But Su Qing pulled her back: "Wan Shan, think about it, she is an adult now and has her own ideas. I think it's better not to force her. Otherwise, it will affect the application for the marriage certificate, and it will be difficult for Xiao Zhou to explain."
"What a tender bone scraper." Cheng Xiang thought to himself: "Of course you mother and daughter want me to leave home quickly. It is best to stay in the country for the rest of my life and never come back."
Cheng Ningning next to her was also surprised when she heard that Cheng wanted to move her household registration to the countryside.
Looking at Cheng Xiang with an expression of "Are you crazy?", is this woman stupid in the countryside?
After these few confrontations, she became sharp-tongued and thoughtful. I thought this woman had become wiser, but now, look, she is still the same fool with big breasts and no brains.
"Yes, dad, people's lives are destined. I'm not destined to be a city dweller, so don't worry about it. My wedding to Zhou Tianlei is scheduled for the Mid-Autumn Festival. When the time comes, just attend the wedding on time." Cheng I want to pack my things and leave them at the door.
After thinking about it, he turned around and said to them: "By the way, Zhou Tianlei gave me a gift of 6,000 yuan at that time. You should also prepare the dowry."
"Marry, dowry?" Su Qing asked hesitantly and looked at Cheng Wanshan again.
Why is there still a dowry thing?
Cheng Wanshan also choked and asked: "What, what dowry?"
Cheng Xiang stared at her round eyes and said: "Dad, how can a girl get married without a dowry? I was given a dowry, but you want me to marry with nothing? The Zhou family should look down on me." Cheng Xiang pouted his face. of anger.
Cheng Wanshan quickly whispered: "Then I definitely can't let you go empty-handed. Okay, then, I'll prepare a dowry for you. What do you plan to bring?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiang turned around and sat on the stool next to the dining table, frowning and looking thoughtful: "According to custom, the dowry should be equal to the bride price, or even more than the bride price, so that the daughter can have face in her husband's family."
"What?" Su Qing and Cheng Ningning exclaimed at the same time.
"Are you crazy? What are you thinking about?" Cheng Ningning said scornfully. Do you still want a dowry of 6,000 yuan?
Cheng Xiang ignored her and said directly to Cheng Wanshan: "Dad, others say that you married me to the countryside for the sake of your career and reputation. I always explain to them that my father has the character of a soldier and keeps his promises with integrity." , he is not a person who is seeking fame and reputation."
"Of course, that's right."
"But, others say that you accepted a bride price of 6,000 yuan, isn't that selling your daughter? You want to make money and gain fame."
"Nonsense, do I, Cheng Wanshan, need that little money?"
"That's right. I accept their betrothal gifts just to show their attitude. Why would my father keep this money? He must have let his daughter take it away to pay for her body care."
"Sure...ah?"
The two of them were asking and answering each other, and each of them had one sentence, and no one else could get in the middle of the conversation.
Cheng Wanshan's affirmation made Su Qing so angry that she almost jumped up and wanted to go up and cover his mouth.
"Okay, dad, it's settled. When we get married, I will take away the gift and it will be considered as your dowry." Cheng Xiang looked at Cheng Wanshan with a smile.
Only then did Cheng Wanshan realize that he had been trapped. He hesitated and looked at Cheng and thought: "Huh? Oh."
Cheng Xiang frowned and thought for a moment and said, "But, Dad, how can you just carry the money away in a small bag and not be seen by outsiders? When the time comes, the wedding team will not even have a decent dowry, so you still have no face?" "
Cheng Wanshan also thought: "That's right, what should we do?"
Cheng Xiang said in embarrassment: "Zhou Tianlei's family has a refrigerator, TV, bicycle, everything, and there is no need to buy anything else. How about you give the dowry a sewing machine? His family doesn't have a sewing machine yet. I will ask him to drive a truck." , how about putting it on the truck to look cool and respectable?"
Su Qing pulled Cheng Wanshan's sleeve and signaled him not to agree.
Cheng Xiang wrinkled his little face pitifully and looked at Cheng Wanshan: "If you are in trouble, forget it. When the time comes, I will let him ride a bicycle, pick me up and leave directly."
"How can that work?" Cheng Wanshan is also a person who wants to save face. After living in the military compound for so many years, it is the first time to marry a daughter. She is so shabby and will inevitably be criticized by others: "If you want to buy a sewing machine, dad will give you money, and you can buy a watch." , it will look good wearing it when the time comes.”
Cheng Wanshan said arrogantly, and said to Su Qing: "Go, give her two hundred yuan to think about, and let her look at the watch and buy it by herself."
Su Qing stared at him with a dark face.
Cheng Wanshan clicked his tongue: "Go ahead, why can't I buy a watch for my daughter?"
Su Qing took a deep breath, walked into the room, took out two hundred yuan, and handed it to Cheng Xiang with a livid face.
Cheng Xiang took the money with a smile: "Thank you Aunt Su, my dad is really lucky to have you as a good wife."
Su Qing put on a smiley face.
After a while, all the food he ate was vomited out, and several hundred dollars were paid back. Su Qing was so distressed that she almost vomited blood.
Cheng Ningning was so angry that her tooth ached, and she said angrily: "Dad, when I get married, will I also have so much dowry?"
Cheng Wanshan suddenly remembered something and said to Cheng Ningning: "By the way, you will go out in a while. Gu Minglang said he would treat you to a meal and would wait for you at the gate of the compound later. It's almost time. You pack up and hurry over." .”
"What?" Cheng Ningning looked at Cheng Wanshan dumbfounded.
"What? Just go if I ask you to go. Don't you want a dowry? How can I give you a dowry if you don't get married? How can you get married if you don't become friends?" Cheng Wanshan was very clear at this time.
"Why should I be friends with him?" Cheng Ningning shouted angrily, turning around to catch a glimpse of Cheng Xiang lowering his head and smiling secretly.
