"I brought it, I have it in my pocket! Don't worry, let me put this melon down first! Where do you want to put this melon?" Tian Xiaohai responded with a smile, glanced around, and decided to put the melon down first.
.
Qiu Maixiang's blood pressure suddenly rose. She didn't hear clearly what Tian Xiaohai was saying. Anyway, the two boxes of money were missing. As for the sack of money that Tian Xiaohai saw for her in the morning, was it true or false?
, she is not sure yet!
It's good now. This guy turned around and even the two boxes of money disappeared. Instead, he came directly carrying two baskets of watermelons? Is this okay?
Qiao Maixiang's face instantly turned gloomy.
Seeing this, her two old best friends, Aunt Mei and Aunt Lan, couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
"Maixiang, I remember last night this young man said he wanted to give your daughter three million yuan as a bride price! How come it's just in his pocket now?"
"Yes! There should be two full boxes of Mai Xiang's three million yuan! How could he put it in his pocket? Didn't this kid brag on purpose last night to make you happy? He could have ten thousand yuan in his pocket
It’s already bulging, but I don’t see any bulging on this kid’s body! It doesn’t look like he can hold tens of thousands of dollars!”
These two old women were in the square last night. They were unhappy with Tian Xiaohai, but Su Nian came to the rescue and made them think that Tian Xiaohai was really a rich young man with a good reputation.
But now when I heard that the bride price was all in my pocket, I immediately felt proud. Twenty thousand yuan was a big deal as to how much I could carry in my pocket.
After finally being able to step on Tian Xiaohai, how could they be willing to miss such an opportunity!
Hearing this, Qiao Maixiang came back to her senses at this moment.
With a gloomy face, she pointed angrily at the three banknote detectors not far away and shouted at Tian Xiaohai: "Tian Xiaohai, what the hell are you doing? I have prepared the banknote detectors. Those two boxes you just carried
Where’s the money? You’re not going to tell me that it’s gone by magic again, are you?”
"Don't worry, it's on me!" Tian Xiaohai responded with a smile. He also wanted to make this woman worry.
"It's on you, why don't you take it out for me?" Qiao Maixiang shouted impatiently.
"Mom, can you ask Xiaohai to put down the watermelon first?" Tang Lingling persuaded her angrily.
"Yes! My brother-in-law is still carrying a load!" Tang Yingying also advised.
Mr. Tang's face also darkened.
He stood up directly, glanced at Qiao Maixiang and said: "Today is a good day for Xiaohai to hire my granddaughter Lingling. Can you please stop yelling? If there is anything else, let's wait until others sit down.
OK."
After saying that, he greeted Tian Xiaohai enthusiastically: "Come on, Xiaohai, put these melons here first."
"Okay! There are more at the back! Let's put them in a row next to each other!" Tian Xiaohai smiled and put down the two baskets of watermelons, then waved to Zuo Qinglong and others behind him and said: "Come in, everyone!"
"Come on, come on! Bring in the burdens." Zuo Qinglong took the lead and walked at the front, followed by five big men.
Since the top of the load was covered with red cloth, it was impossible to see what was inside.
People at the scene couldn't help but start to speculate.
"What's in these burdens?"
"It can't be all watermelon!"
At this time, the hall was already full of guests, including some close relatives of the Tang family. After listening to Qiao Maixiang's words and considering the load in front of them, they couldn't help but start talking softly.
They had already heard that Tang Lingling had found a boy from a poor family as her boyfriend. However, some relatives also heard that the boy from a poor family seemed to have made a little fortune recently.
So there are all kinds of sounds.
"It seems that this load is filled with worthless stuff, and the bride price is all on it. It is estimated that it is only tens of thousands of yuan at most. It seems that Tang Lingling didn't ask for much as a bride price!"
"I think Lingling was deceived!"
"Oh! Such a beautiful girl was deceived by a poor boy. It's really not worth it!"
"Isn't that right? If you marry a civil servant and become a civil servant, it won't be a problem."
"Even if you marry a doctor and teacher, you will be better than this guy!"
Relatives, you said something to me, and I discussed each other, and their expressions seemed to be more affectionate than that of your own mother.
Hearing these noisy sounds, Qiao Maixiang could no longer keep her expression on her face. She took a few steps forward and couldn't help shouting at Tian Xiaohai: "Hey! Where's Tian Xiaohai's money? The three million yuan you mentioned
Woolen cloth?"
"It's on me! Don't worry, let's invite everyone to eat watermelon first! When my parents come, I will take out the three million yuan as a gift and count them together. Don't worry, you can't run away!
Tian Xiaohai smiled and took out two melons from the basket and placed them on the table.
Tang Yingying quickly picked up the watermelon and shouted: "I'll open the watermelon for everyone to eat! Mom, please sit down first!"
"Hmph! Tian Xiaohai, when will your parents come over?" Qiao Maixiang looked a little impatient.
"It should be soon. Once Yingying opens the melon, it should be almost there." Tian Xiaohai smiled and nodded.
As soon as these words came out, the relatives of the Tang family started talking even more intensely.
"This guy is really a pauper. He keeps pushing me back and forth, but even with the gift money, he's too embarrassed to show it to anyone!"
"It's missing, so I'm embarrassed to take it out."
"Isn't that right? How much can you carry in your pocket? Twenty to thirty thousand yuan at most."
Qiao Maixiang's old best friends Aunt Lan and Aunt Mei burst out laughing.
"Maixiang, your daughter has been so beautiful for a long time. It seems that we were deceived by this boy last night!"
"Alas! A few loads of watermelons will take care of your daughter. If I had known this, you should have listened to me and introduced your daughter to Lawyer Zhang. Although she is a little older, she still earns two to three hundred thousand a year!
"
"Maixiang, the three banknote detectors I borrowed for you seem to be in the dust. Looking back, I'm too embarrassed to explain to them. I originally wanted to take the opportunity to show off on WeChat Moments, showing off when a rich classmate's family was collecting gifts.
The highlight moment now seems to have become a joke."
Aunt Lan and Aunt Mei kept sarcastic and sarcastic.
Listening to the discussion between the two old best friends, Qiao Maixiang's heart was bleeding.
She invited two old best friends to her home just to show off, but Tian Xiaohai made a show of it. So far, she has not seen any sign of the bride price, so she actually asked someone to borrow three banknote detectors.
, and after waiting for a long time, this is the result.
She really wanted to kill Tian Xiaohai.
Tang Lingling's face turned red.
She believed in Tian Xiaohai's strength and knew that he must have been able to get three million, and he had brought it with him in the brocade bag at his waist. Of course he had his reasons for not taking it out now, but the gossip of his relatives made her
She was a little disgusted, and she was worried that her mother would have an attack.
Seeing Tang Lingling's worried look, Tian Xiaohai couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Thinking of this, he smiled and gestured to Zuo Qinglong and others: "Open the cigarettes and wine in the basket and show them to everyone! This is the sincerity of our Tian family."
"Okay!" Zuo Qinglong opened the red cloth one by one, then pointed at the basket and began to introduce: "Twenty-five pieces of Huazi, thirty bottles of Feitian Moutai, ten pounds of the best Dahongpao, ten pounds of fine Pu'er, ten pounds of donkey-hide gelatin
Jin, ten pounds of bird's nest..."
As the red cloth of the baskets was lifted, what appeared in front of everyone were baskets after baskets of valuable cigarettes, wine, tea, donkey-hide gelatin, etc., which made people dazzled.
The people at the scene burst into laughter.
"Oh my gosh, this gift is really expensive and heavy! It's probably worth ten to two hundred thousand in total."
"Yes! It's worth one or two hundred thousand at least. There are so many supplies alone. This is the first time I have seen such a generous master."
"This young man seems to have a really good family background!"
"I guess I really got rich!"
Listening to everyone's discussion, Qiao Maixiang's face immediately turned rosy, looking much better than before.
Tang Lingling also breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Tang on the side directly held Tian Xiaohai's hand and patted him on the shoulder sincerely: "You guys are coming as soon as you come. What are you doing with all these tricks? I told you a long time ago, our granddaughter, you
Just pick whatever you want, it doesn’t matter if you have money or not…”
"Grandpa, what did you say?" Tang Yingying cut the watermelon and brought it over, and heard the old man's words clearly.
"My mouth is floating, my mouth is floating!" Mr. Tang smiled sheepishly and waved his hand.
Fortunately, his relatives were discussing and no one heard him.
"Come on, let's eat watermelon!" Tang Yingying blushed and shouted to everyone with a smile.
"Put it there first! No rush!" Qiao Maixiang squatted down in front of those famous cigarettes and wines proudly, and looked at them carefully.
That old money-obsessed look actually makes me want to laugh.
None of the relatives cared much. They were just watching the fun anyway, and none of them cared about wanting to eat.
Seeing Qiao Maixiang win the game, Aunt Lan and Aunt Mei's faces were ashen.
"My mother is here, let me pick her up first!" Tian Xiaohai smiled and nodded to everyone, turned around and prepared to walk out.
Seeing this, Qiu Maixiang quickly answered with a smile: "Xiaohai, sit down, your mother is a guest, her in-laws. She is today's distinguished guest. I should be the one to pick her up. My in-laws are here, but they have to set off thousands of firecrackers to welcome them.
of."
After saying that, she waved to Tang Lingling's father: "Jiankai, go get thousands of firecrackers to set off. Today we are going to welcome the in-laws grandly!"
"Wait a minute, Mai Xiang, don't get too happy too soon. This young man is too smart. He used the gift money directly to buy supplies. This way he not only saves face but also saves money." Aunt Mei glanced at Tian Xiaohai and sneered.
Said: "The Tian family doesn't even have three pieces of gold, how can this be called a betrothal gift?"
