Tang Jianye suggested, "Brother Gu, how about we follow your eldest daughter-in-law's standards?"
"This..." Gu Decheng hesitated.
Seeing Gu Decheng's expression, Tang Jianye's eyes moved slightly, "Brother Gu, are you not satisfied?"
Is it too little?
Gu Decheng said, "I'll give you nine hundred and nine to get a lucky number. Don't worry about it. If your child buys a house, he will definitely not have enough money."
Huge betrothal gifts in rural areas are all given by families with poor conditions and unable to find a wife.
The more remote the place, the higher the betrothal gift.
Jin Zhengtai has already bought a building. His daughter will not be able to bear the injustice in the future. He cannot ask for betrothal gifts randomly like in the village.
When Gu Jinghui heard that his father actually wanted a gift of more than 900 yuan, his face suddenly turned ugly.
But, at this time, there was no room for him to speak.
Tang Jianye looked at Gu Decheng with admiration, he was really a down-to-earth person.
He looked at Jin Zhengtai and smiled and said, "Xiao Jin, do you hear me clearly? You have to get hired quickly. You see how much your father-in-law loves you. Now that you are engaged, you have to buy some clothes and jewelry for Jingxiu."
Gu Decheng waved his hand, "Forget about jewelry, what kind of jewelry do we ordinary children want?"
Tang Jianye suddenly felt that his job as a matchmaker was a bit too relaxed.
The Fang family has no requirements for women.
How can this work?
Tang Jianye also saw the status of men in rural families at this time.
Marrying a daughter was such a big deal, but Gu Jingxiu and her mother didn't even speak during the entire process.
It was all Gu Decheng who was talking.
He glanced at Gu Jingxiu and said to Gu Decheng, "Let's listen to the child's opinion."
Tang Jianye looked at Gu Jingxiu, who had been standing aside with his head lowered and did not express any opinions. He smiled and asked, "Jingxiu, what do you want?
Whatever your request is, don't be embarrassed when everyone is here. Just ask it and I'll do it for you if Xiaojin can do it. Engagement is a big deal, so we can't wrong you."
This girl is really a bit too honest.
Gu Jingxiu was suddenly detained. She raised her head and replied, "Second Uncle Tang, I don't have any requests. You can talk to my father."
Tang Jianye laughed, "You kid, how could you not ask for it? We are discussing your engagement with Xiao Jin, you have to participate."
Tang Min pulled Gu Jingxiu and said, "Jingxiu, what else do you want? Tell everyone."
Jin Zhengtai looked at her with gentle eyes, "Yes, Jingxiu, tell me, I will find a way to fulfill any request you have."
Gu Jingxiu looked at the room full of people. She bit her lip and mustered up the courage to speak, "My only request is that no matter what happens in the future, he can't hit me."
As soon as Gu Jingxiu said these words, everyone in the room looked at her.
Tang Min looked even more surprised.
My heart aches.
In the previous life, Gu Jingxiu was subjected to domestic violence by Wang Hu after marrying Wang Hu, and finally suffered from depression.
She mentioned such a request at this time, which made her feel heartbroken.
Jin Zhengtai was even more confused, "Jingxiu, how could you have such an idea? How could I hit you?"
Men who hit women are the worst.
There's absolutely no way he could be that person.
Gu Jingxiu looked at Jin Zhengtai with an unprecedented serious expression, "Many men in our hometown beat their wives after getting married. If they disagree, they take off the soles of their shoes and say hello to them. I'm afraid of living such a life, so I want to ask
in front of you
In front of my parents, my eldest brother and my second brother, you have to promise that no matter what happens in the future, you will never do anything to me."
Gu Jingxiu's words made Gu Decheng's face burn with panic.
When he was young, he was also the man his daughter said beat his wife.
Anyway, it's not that he has any violent tendencies, it's just like everyone else.
Everyone is used to it.
If the wife does something wrong, she will be beaten to vent her anger.
Gu Decheng remembers very clearly that when the eldest and second son were seven or eight years old, he once took off his shoes and hit Wang Guixiang for some trivial matter. As a result, the two sons ran over and stood in front of Wang Guixiang to protect her.
Gu Jingchuan glared at him fiercely, snatched the shoes from his hand, and threw them to the roof with great force.
At that time, he was wearing only one shoe and was shocked when he saw the two sons staring fiercely at him.
Since then, he has never hit his wife again.
Jin Zhengtai said solemnly in front of everyone, "I promise, if I, Jin Zhengtai, touch a hair on Gu Jingxiu's head in the future, I will ask eldest brother, second brother, and Jing Qi to beat me to death."
Tang Min patted Gu Jingxiu's shoulder and said, "Jingxiu, don't have such worries. Jin Zi is not that kind of person. Look at your eldest and second brothers, they have never beaten their wives. The eldest sister-in-law is so capable of acting like a monster.
Brother hasn't even touched her, so what are you afraid of?"
Gu Jingxiu nodded, "Second sister-in-law, I believe him."
Gu Jingqi said loudly, "Sister, don't worry. If Brother Jinzi dares to bully you in the future, I will be the first one not to spare him. I will be a military doctor in the future, so treating him will be no problem."
"Jingxiu, if he dares to lay a finger on you, you call big brother, and I will go to the city to find him to settle the score." Gu Jinghui also came out to support him.
Gu Jingxiu looked at them movedly, "Thank you, brother, thank you Jing Qi."
"Seeing that your family is so harmonious and united, I, as the second uncle, am very happy. Xiao Min has married into a good family."
Although their family is very ordinary, they have the happiness and warmth of ordinary people.
It's quite gratifying to watch.
Gu Decheng replied, "His second uncle, it was our Gu family who fell in love with Gaoxiang and married a good wife. Since Xiao Min married into our family, our family's life has become better, and everyone's mental outlook has changed. This is all because of Xiao Min."
Thanks to Min."
The family used to be very poor, the eldest brother and his wife were lazy, the second brother was in a wheelchair, and Jingxiu was timid and fearful. In short, life was very difficult. Since Tang Min married his family Jingchuan, Jingchuan's illness has recovered.
The eldest couple were stimulated by them, and now they are developing in a good direction.
It's because they married a good wife.
Tang Jianye nodded in agreement, "Brother Gu, I agree with what you said about our Xiao Min. He has good medical skills and is highly motivated. I am really lucky that Jingchuan can marry my Xiao Min."
"Second uncle, dad, don't go too far when talking about Jin Zi and Jing Xiu." Tang Min was embarrassed by their praise.
"Yes, let's get down to business." Tang Jianye looked at Jin Zhengtai, "Jin Zi, then express your opinion in front of your father-in-law, mother-in-law, and future brother-in-law. You can't bully Jingxiu in the future."
Jin Zhengtai stood upright and said solemnly, "Uncle, no, it's too late for me to hurt her."
"You kid."
Finally, Tang Jianye made the decision, "Then my task for today is completed. We have also discussed the bride price. As for jewelry and other things, Jingxiu, just tell Jin Jin what you want to buy. In addition, when you get engaged, you must give it to Jingxiu."
Buy some new clothes, you can buy these things yourself."
