Zheng Shufen was overjoyed, "Mom, there's good news, there's good news."
Wu Xiuzhu raised her eyelids casually, "What good news makes me so excited?"
"I'm very sorry to my great-granddaughter Mei Rou. She successfully found a misunderstanding in Anju Village. Judging from the man's attitude, it seems that they want to marry Mei Rou as quickly as possible. Mom, let me tell you how much do they want for the bride price?
Is it appropriate?" Zheng Shufen said confused.
She was afraid that if she asked for too much, she would not marry Mei Rou, and she was afraid that if she asked for too little, her family would suffer a loss.
"Really?" Wu Xiuzhu was surprised. She looked at Mei Rou and confirmed, "You found a mistake in Anju Village so quickly?"
Mei Rou lowered her head shyly and nodded lightly.
Wang Xiaojuan hurriedly said, "Grandma, there are only a few people in that family and the house is quite big. What I want most is how many acres of land does each family have? If Mei Rou marries me, even if she wants to work, she won't have to endure hardships."
, because he has a small family, and her mother-in-law-to-be is not a generous person, so she would only give away old hens when she gives them things!"
"In that case, let Mei Rou get married first. After Mei Rou gets acquainted with Anju Village, we can introduce the idea of good conditions to other cousins." Wu Xiuzhu asked her to let her grandchildren
All of them will marry gay men with good conditions, or marry lesbians with good conditions, so that they will not be less filial to her, and she can have a good confinement in her later years.
Now that Li Mingshan is in jail, no one has given her anything, and she has no way to improve her life, so she can only think of this way.
"Mom, how much do we need as a betrothal gift?" Zheng Shufen asked hurriedly.
Wu Xiuzhu thought for a while and then said, "I don't want to ask for much, just three hundred. When the time comes, I will give Meirou fifty yuan at the bottom of the box, Xiaojuan fifty yuan, Shufen I fifty yuan, and the remaining one hundred and fifty yuan for Dong."
Give him the money and he will prepare things for Meirou to get married. After Meirou gives birth to a son and her status is stable, we will proceed as planned."
Wu Xiuzhu is also a smart person. She knows that if she asks for too much, she will not be able to ask again, so she asks for less, so that she can ask more often in the future.
When Wang Xiaojuan heard that, she was a little unhappy. Why should she get fifty yuan just for marrying her daughter? She wanted to give her mother fifty yuan, and she wanted to give her grandma one hundred and fifty yuan. Who should she give her daughter to?
Raised?
Once the money is in her mother's lap, it will definitely belong to her younger brother and sister-in-law, because her mother is partial to her younger brother.
And if the money goes into her grandmother's lap, it will definitely go into her uncle's and aunt's lap in the future, and it has nothing to do with her.
If she had known earlier, she would not have talked about that matter. She and her husband could have quietly married Mei Rou to Huang Wendong's family. But now that she has said it, there is no point in regretting it. I hope grandma can really help her daughter.
Prepare more dowry!
Wang Xiaojuan nodded, "Okay, then he will tell the Huang family tomorrow, and they will ask for a bride price of three hundred yuan. On the day they say they will get married, their Mei Rou will marry on that day."
Seven unmarried young men went on a blind date with Mei Rou, but Huang Wendong was the only one who liked Mei Rou. He must not seize the opportunity and marry Huang Wendong quickly, lest as time goes by, Huang Wendong would regret it!
When Mei Rou marries Huang Wendong, she can introduce the other sisters in the family to the six unmarried young men from Chengdong. The wealth will not go to outsiders, they all become family members, won't it be easier to speak in the future?
"From now on, all the girls in the family will marry boys from Anju Village, and all the boys in the family will marry girls from Anju Village. People from other places will not be considered," Wu Xiuzhu said.
Zheng Shufen nodded, "Mom, he knows. He will tell everyone when he goes back. Except for the misunderstanding in Anju Village, other villages will not be considered."
Zheng Shufen gave birth to two daughters and one son. The eldest granddaughter, Fei Meirou, will be eighteen next year. There are many in Didong. Let Meirou go to Anju Village to take the lead. After a few years, she will bring all her younger brothers and sisters to Anju Village.
Have a good confinement.
There are so many families building buildings and buying bicycles in Anju Village now, which shows how good the conditions are in Anju Village. If you marry into it, you will definitely have a good confinement.
In those days, everyone wanted to find a good image for their children, whether they were marrying a wife or a daughter, because only by finding a good image could they have a good confinement life!
That morning, Wang Xiaojuan went to Huang Wendong's house in Anju Village alone and told them that their family would only ask for a gift of three hundred yuan and not ask for anything else, because if they sincerely married their daughter, they would be fine.
Please just ask Huang Wendong to treat Mei Rou more well in the future.
The bride price of three hundred yuan is indeed not much for Huang Wendong's family. It can even be said to be very small, because their family has earned nearly forty thousand yuan in more than a year. In addition to supporting their married daughter,
Yes, those who have saved more than 30,000 yuan alone, the 300 yuan gift is just a drop in the bucket for them, not worth mentioning.
Huang Wendong and his father took turns selling dried seafood or fruits every day. The two of them could earn nearly a hundred yuan a day, while Huang Wendong's mother dug wild vegetables in the family farm and could earn a few yuan a day.
Their family can now earn more than 30,000 yuan a year.
But they have actually been working with Li Chengcheng for more than a year and have earned a lot more money.
So the Huang family immediately agreed, and directly handed over the 300 yuan gift to Wang Xiaojuan, and also set a wedding date on May 1st, because that day was suitable for getting married, and there were only a few days left.
Already.
Let two people get married as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams.
Since there were only a few days left for May Day, the two families went to get busy.
Li Chengcheng also received an invitation from the Huang family. Because the Huang family wholesaled dried seafood and fruits from her legs, they were not partners and it was not normal to invite them to a wedding banquet.
However, Li Chengcheng did not expect that they would be so quick. It seemed that not long after Wu Xiuzhu came to Anju Village with a large family, Huang Wendong and Mei Rou proposed to get married.
Most people in that era were like this. After meeting and getting to know each other, they thought it was okay and then got married. It was rare for people to make the mistake of being in a relationship for three to five years. After all, the man was afraid that what he sent would be wasted, and the woman was also afraid of his time.
He regretted it when he got older and made his girl too old to get married.
Just ask the two families to discuss it. It doesn’t matter if you get married early or get married late, it doesn’t matter if you want to get married anyway!
Soon it was May Day, the confinement period for Huang Wendong to marry his wife.
Li Chengcheng and Hong Dashan did not go there early to join in the fun. After all, Li Chengcheng's belly was so big, and she was afraid of being bumped into. She and Hong Dashan went to the library first to see the progress of the library's construction.
Suddenly, a burst of firecrackers crackled, and Li Chengcheng knew that the bride had entered the village. At that time, everyone was rushing to grab wedding candies, and the scene was lively, and she would not join in the fun at that time.
