Chapter 282 Talking about engagement! [First update]
Xu Gongguan.
Xu Meng’s uncles walked around the house, and Chen Muyu got several red envelopes.
The bulging bags were dismantled in the room at night, ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands. It must be said that the richest man's family is very wealthy.
Such a comparison, the 10,001 yuan red envelope that my mother gave Xu Meng when she left in the morning was instantly compared.
But it can’t be compared like this. After all, my parents’ abilities are limited. How can they compare with the richest man’s family in the city?
Xu Meng sat on the bed and transformed into a little money fan. She opened Chen Muyu's red envelope.
During the Chinese New Year, you just open the red envelopes and have fun. In fact, it’s not about how much money you have. The important thing is that you can see the love and care your elders have for you.
Pile together, there are still fifty or sixty thousand. For ordinary people, it is absolutely unimaginable that they can get fifty or sixty thousand as New Year's money.
“Muyu, what are you thinking about?”
Chen Muyu was lying next to Xu Meng, looking at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking, with a smile on his face.
“I’m thinking that I need to make more friends, especially rich ones. When we get married, if each of us gives us a big red envelope, then we will make a lot of money?”
Chen Muyu said cheerfully.
Xu Meng was overjoyed after hearing this, "You also said that I'm a money obsessed person. I think you are a money obsessed person. It turns out that you make friends just because they give you red envelopes?"
“Haha, isn’t it very simple and rude?” Chen Muyu grinned, “When I make more friends, we will make a lot of money from him!”
Xu Meng nodded seriously and said, "This glorious task will be left to you. I will be the one to collect the red envelopes when the time comes. I'm not afraid of getting tired!"
Chen Muyu laughed and said, "Count the red envelopes slowly. I'll talk to your dad!"
It’s still early, let’s talk to my father-in-law!
…
Just in time, Xu Sifeng was in the study.
Seeing Chen Muyu coming, he took Chen Muyu to play a game of chess. Naturally, Chen Muyu threw away his armor and returned home defeated.
“Uncle is really good at chess!”
Chen Muyu praised him greatly, he was the only veteran left on his side, and he was being chased around by Xu Sifeng.
“Did you keep your hands?” Xu Sifeng looked at Chen Muyu with a smile.
Chen Muyu sneered, "If I hold back, then I would be too unprofessional!"
To be honest, if you want to keep your hands, you should keep them evenly matched, so that people can enjoy themselves. How about being like Chen Muyu, who throws away his armor and has no power to resist at all.
Chen Muyu is indeed only good at playing chess, but not very good at it. Unlike Xu Sifeng, he does not have as much time to study this.
Arranged the chess pieces again, Chen Muyu asked, "Uncle Xu, do you still remember where you got the two soul lamps you gave me last time?"
Chen Muyu got straight to the point.
“Ximen, Huan Garden!”
Chen Sifeng said directly, "There is a street in Huanhua Garden that sells second-hand goods. There are also many antique stalls in it. The two glazed lamps were bought from a street stall. At that time, they just thought they were beautiful and interesting.
edge……"
Speaking of this, Chen Sifeng raised his head and glanced at Chen Muyu, "How about those two lamps, will they be of great help to you?"
Chen Muyu nodded slightly, "It's quite big, but I have to thank you, uncle!"
Huan Garden is still very familiar to Chen Muyu.
Huanhuayuan Garden in Ximen is the largest second-hand goods trading market in Qingshan City. Qin Hong’s Qinjia Building is located in Huanhuayuan Garden.
Chen Sifeng waved his hand, "You can use it if you need it, but don't forget to find me a health-preserving exercise!"
Chen Muyu nodded. It’s easy to talk about Kung Fu. You will always find the right one. He still has the source energy potion in his hand. That thing is probably much more fragrant than practicing Kung Fu.
After all, the practice of Kung Fu cannot be accomplished in one or two days.
At present, the source energy potion has only been tried on that black bear, and it has been proven that it is indeed effective, and the effect is very obvious.
But that can only be regarded as an animal experiment. So far, Chen Muyu cannot guarantee that this source of energy medicine will not cause any side effects to the human body when used on humans.
It is definitely inappropriate to use his father-in-law as an experiment. Chen Muyu would not dare to do it. He would wait two days and try it on himself first.
Chen Muyu wanted to take a look at Huan Garden to see if he could find the remaining soul lanterns. If he could collect all seven, the effect of the soul lanterns would definitely be incredible, and it would definitely be more significant for his current practice.
s help.
It's just that it's the Chinese New Year period now, and Huanhuayuan Garden won't open until at least the Lantern Festival, so there's still some waiting.
“Uncle Xu, do you still remember where that stall is?” Chen Muyu asked.
Xu Sifeng said, "This kind of stalls are all mobile. I looked for them some time ago and saw no one there anymore. However, the vendor was very distinctive. He was a middle-aged man in his forties, not tall and very tall.
He is thin, wears a suit that is not very decent, and has a braid on his head..."
Hah, what kind of look is this!
Listening to Xu Sifeng's description, Chen Muyu felt that it was difficult to piece together the image of the person he was talking about in his mind.
…
——
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, I went to Xu Meng’s grandma’s house in Ebei Mountain. There were a lot of people, including relatives and friends, and it was very lively.
Anyway, following Xu Meng, I got a lot of red envelopes.
On the sixth day of the lunar month, my parents returned to Qingshan City. On the seventh day of the lunar month, they made an appointment with Xu Meng’s parents and uncle, and the two families officially met.
The highlight of the meeting was of course to talk about the marriage between Chen Muyu and Xu Meng. After all, 24 years old is quite old. In a year or two, it can be considered as late marriage and late childbearing.
Chen Muyu and Xu Meng didn't know exactly what the two families were talking about. Anyway, the two of them had a similar relationship and were just waiting for their elders to make arrangements.
…
At night, when I got home, without waiting for Chen Muyu to ask, my mother took Chen Muyu and announced the result of the battle.
Today we had lunch at the Xu Mansion. My parents got together with Xu Meng’s parents and chatted for several hours.
Xu Meng's parents naturally had no objections to their marriage, and they didn't make any demands. They just left it to chance, including the betrothal gift and three gold coins.
As for the wedding date, there is no specific decision yet. I just said that we should find an auspicious day and get engaged first.
After all, Xu Meng is still studying for graduate school. Considering academic issues, they still have to discuss it with Xu Meng in detail before making a decision.
Engagement or marriage, in fact, in the eyes of Mom and others, it doesn't make much difference, as long as the matter can be settled.
“Xiao Yu, tell me, if you and Xiao Meng are engaged, how much gift should our family give you?”
At this time, my mother finally thought of discussing it with Chen Muyu.
Chen Muyu rubbed his temples, "Didn't Uncle Xu say to just let it go? Just give it to me. This family doesn't care about this at all..."
My mother glared at Chen Muyu and said sternly, "They say they just let things happen and don't take it seriously, but we can't just take it easy..."
