After a few people exchanged pleasantries, they all sat down.
Lin Yan smiled and said: "My Lin Cheng is usually not good at talking. I hope I can be more considerate in the future."
"Where is this, Xiaolin, I like this kid very much." The old lady replied with a smile.
There are several people there. You praise them, and I praise them.
Li Siyu looked confused, what are you doing? As for what?
Lin Cheng looked at her confused look and slightly raised the corners of his mouth. His little wife was really cute.
It was obvious that he was here to arrange a marriage, but the man couldn't tell it yet.
Li Siyu didn't think much about it, especially since it was New Year's Eve. She thought the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Lin family came here to visit...
After reminiscing about old times, it was time to get down to business. Lin Yan told the old lady about their marriage and it was time to set a date.
Only then did Li Siyu realize that she was going to get engaged today? She turned to look at Lin Cheng. This guy didn't say anything and was still pretending to be mysterious!
After several people gathered together for a long time, the old lady did not make the decision herself, so she turned to ask her old daughter.
"Siyu, when do you think it's a good time to get married?"
Everyone else also looked at Li Siyu, after all, she had the final say.
"Then let's wait until May Day." Anyway, I'm getting married this year, so if I can wait, I'll wait until it gets warmer.
Lin Cheng was obviously not happy about the delay for so long, but he did not dare to refute...
Lin Cheng: The baby feels bitter, and the baby feels wronged.
No one had any objections, and Lin Yan immediately paid the bride price, five hundred yuan.
It's not that there isn't more money, it's that no amount of money will do. The average wedding gift is only a few dozen yuan, and in the city it's only 200 yuan.
So five hundred yuan is not a low amount.
Seeing the bundles of bundles on the table, everyone in Lao Li's family couldn't help but look over.
The old lady was still stable, and after discussing some things, she asked Zhang Yuemei to cook.
The lunch meal must be sumptuous.
Zhang Yuemei also tried her best, and the eight dishes were enough to keep her busy.
Chen Huan also came to help. When he heard that Li Siyu's gift was five hundred yuan, he couldn't help but secretly sighed, this little aunt is really lucky.
It depends on the status of a woman in her husband's family, whether she is satisfied or not depends on the bride price.
If a poor family has no money, they have to borrow money so that their daughter-in-law can marry into the family in a beautiful way, and they will be motivated to pay back the money in the future.
If they are not satisfied, then the poor family will just say that they are poor, want to marry or not, and even have to pay a dowry.
If rich people are dissatisfied, then just give them some casual treatment. It's all nonsense to sell their daughters if they have too much money.
At Chen Huan's age, all her friends and classmates are married, so she can see clearly.
The poorer this person is, the more ambitious and self-righteous he must be. The further away from this kind of person, the better.
Fortunately, although Lao Li's family is not a rich family, they are really kind to her.
Thinking of this, Chen Huan has no intention of comparison. She is already an older girl, and Lao Li's family is also a real family, so just be nice.
If she goes to a rich man's house, she will probably be angry every day. If the gap between the rich and the poor is too big, your husband's family will look down on you, and even your mother-in-law's family will not be able to hold their head high in front of her husband's family.
It is better to have a family. No one needs to look down on anyone, but people must work hard. If you don’t work hard, it will be in vain. (The above is also the author’s point of view, please don’t criticize.)
Li Chengcai has also been studying at night school recently. He will get his technical secondary school certificate after a while. If he works hard then, he will not have to worry about getting promoted.
Chen Huan feels that life will be more and more promising in the future.
As soon as the lunch dishes were placed on the table, Lin Yan and his wife knew that Lao Li's family was very satisfied with the marriage.
There are only two vegetarian dishes among the eight dishes, the others are meat dishes, and even wine is served.
This size is comparable to a New Year’s Eve dinner. Who in the average family can cook eight dishes?
The group of people ate happily and satisfactorily. Lin Yan also drank two glasses of wine, but Li Siguo simply drank too much.
I am happy today, no one is stopping me, I can drink whatever I want.
After dinner, the Li family went out to see off the Lin family and his wife. Today's affairs were considered finished.
The wedding date was set for May 1st, and it wasn't as cold at that time, so it was just right.
In fact, everyone thinks that it can be done at any time, and of course the sooner the better.
But Li Siyu has decided, and no one else will say anything. After all, he is the real owner.
Back in the house, Li Siyu looked at Lin Cheng, who still looked normal after drinking two glasses of liquor, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance? I act like a fool."
Lin Cheng thought to himself, if I tell you, why should I push it back one day at a time? But he didn't dare to say this.
"It's not uncommon for everyone to have a holiday. Everyone is fine, so we can discuss it." He also had this plan. Lin Yan was usually too busy with work, and he would not point fingers at the Lin family at all.
Therefore, we can only let Lin Yan be the patriarch. Fortunately, elder brothers are like fathers, so there is nothing wrong with doing so.
Li Siyu was too lazy to pay attention to him. Now that the date was finalized, he could only accept it.
Thinking about how she was getting married in her twenties, she really couldn't agree to anything on a whim.
The most important thing is that these three years have gone by too fast, but since we are going to get married sooner or later, we should get married sooner rather than later.
The two spent the New Year in Spring City and returned to Baicheng on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Since they still had work to do, it was better to go back early.
And Lao Li's family had the things Lin Cheng bought and the New Year's goods bought by Li Siyu. Everyone had a good year.
Li Siwen and Li Simin came here once in the second grade of junior high school, but the old lady didn't give them a good look.
Especially Li Simin, the old lady kicked him out without any persuasion.
Li Siwen and his wife had enough to eat, so they wouldn't be driven out to starve in the middle of winter.
Li Siyu doesn't care about them now. What should be done has been done anyway. It's their business whether to work hard or not.
For example, when Li Chengyuan was expelled, it was his own fault, and now he has become a joke in the village.
Seeing the fate of Li Simin's family, Li Siwen worked hard to please the old lady.
Only obedient children will have delicious food, and those who disobey will only be beaten.
Back in Baicheng, Li Siyu saw the letters in the mailbox. There were two letters in total.
One is from Xiao Ai, and the other is from Ma Huimin.
When she returned to the house, Lin Cheng quickly lit the fire and lit the stove, while Li Siyu sat at the table and read the letter.
First I opened Xiao Ai's letter, which contained some happy things. Xiao Ai's family had been rehabilitated and they had returned to Ancheng.
This really made people feel happy, and Li Siyu felt relieved.
Xiao Ai is a good person, and it is expected that he can be rehabilitated.
The letter also said that he would come over to visit Li Siyu another day after he had settled down, as a way of expressing his gratitude for the things he had mailed before.
Li Siyu doesn't care about this, it's just a small effort, why shouldn't he be grateful?
However, they were grateful, and Li Siyu was also very happy. At least they had this heart, and it was not in vain that she risked her life to help them.
After reading the contents of the letter, she picked up another letter.
