Zhao Shuqin noticed that Li Siyu was looking at her, so she smiled back. She didn't want to fight for it now, and she didn't have a share in it.
So this time I am becoming more and more Buddhist, eating what I can earn, and eating less if I can’t.
As for the old lady, she comes when she has something to do, eats when she is told, and goes home when she is done.
Li Siyu also understood the purpose of what she was doing now, which was that she didn't want to be too far apart, and she didn't want to stick together endlessly.
The next morning, everyone got up early to prepare for the wedding.
Since there is nothing missing, Li Siyu is not in a hurry to help or anything.
There were many people at home, and Li Chengcai's colleagues also came over. Even Director Xu from the mine came over to congratulate him.
Li Siyu was very grateful for her help. In addition to asking Li Chengcai to give gifts, Director Xu also helped her a lot.
The two of them reminisced about old times, and then watched the excitement from the side. When it comes to getting married, there are a lot of people, and the whole thing is a festive and lively event.
Li Siyu followed him to pick up his bride. It was actually very close, so Li Chengcai rode his bicycle there.
He wore a Chinese tunic suit today and looked a bit mature.
A group of people pushed their bicycles to the place, and everyone started to cheer in a lively manner.
Li Siyu suddenly felt something was not right, because Chen Huan's face was very dull, and he did not look happy about getting married at all.
And the mother-in-law's family is the same, with a look of indifference on their faces.
Maybe everyone realized something was wrong and started to stop and stop making trouble.
Li Chengcai was not a fool. He looked around and then went to Father Chen and Mother Chen.
"Dad, Mom, I'm here to pick up the bride." He had a smile on his face.
Although I don’t know why the Chen family became like this, today is a happy day, and it’s the same thing to ask about it later.
"Hey? Xiao Li." Mother Chen spoke, and she changed from the previous name of Chengcai to Xiao Li.
Li Chengcai didn't speak, but stood there and listened to her. He didn't know what was going on now, and he didn't ask.
Li Siyu couldn't help but nod. Li Chengcai has really grown up and is not like his previous temperament.
In today's situation, something must have happened, otherwise the Chen family wouldn't be like this.
Mother Chen glanced at Father Chen and saw that he didn't speak, so she could only speak by herself.
"It's like this. From the time we got engaged to now, our family has never mentioned a bride price. Let me also tell you today that without two thousand yuan today, our Chen Huan cannot get married."
When she said this, not only the Li family were shocked, but the neighbors who came to watch the excitement were also very surprised.
Two thousand yuan, these workers now have to save for several years without eating or drinking.
Their two families have been engaged until now, and everyone knows that it has been two years, so why did something like this happen on the wedding day.
Li Siyu couldn't help but find it a bit funny. She had two thousand yuan, but she wouldn't give it to someone like this.
I already gave two hundred yuan for the engagement before, which is considered as a betrothal gift. Why are you starting to talk about this again?
"How did this old Chen do this? He really dares to say two thousand yuan."
"No, his daughter is already twenty-two and an old maid, and she hasn't counted yet."
A group of people were chattering, but the Chen family just lowered their heads and said nothing.
The eldest brother of the Chen family can't stand this kind of public opinion, and he and Li Chengcai are usually pretty good friends. Now that this happened, he has no shame in staying here anymore.
Li Chengcai watched the eldest brother of the Chen family leave without saying a word, then turned to look at Chen Huan.
Chen Huan wore new clothes today, a red and black plaid coat, two braids and a red hairdo.
She is sitting there without saying a word, as if she is not getting married today.
"Chen Huan, what do you mean?" Li Chengcai looked at her calmly.
Today's turmoil in Lao Chen's family really made him unable to recover. Today is already the wedding day, and everyone has come to pick up the bride.
It's okay for them to ask for betrothal gifts now, and he can borrow three hundred and five hundred.
But the old Chen family always asks for two thousand yuan. How many years will it take him to save the money?
Chen Huan knew what was going on at home. She also had to listen to her parents. Do you want a gift of two thousand yuan?
Chen Huan raised his head and glanced at him, then pursed his lips and said, "It's not easy for my parents to raise me. You also know the conditions of our family. I don't have to worry about anything."
As soon as she said these words, Li Chengcai knew what she was going to say next. But he didn't expect that this scene would happen to him.
"Okay." Li Chengcai waved his hand and said, "You think my family is a burden now? It's not too late."
He turned his head and looked at the old Chen family and said, "Since you think it takes two thousand yuan as a gift to pick someone up, I won't pick him up today. Everyone knows what's going on in my family, and the two thousand yuan is definitely gone."
.Since we can’t become in-laws, let’s get together and part ways.”
After saying that, he led a large group of people and pushed the bicycles back.
Seeing that he felt uncomfortable, Li Siyu did not try to persuade him. It was not that she was reluctant to give up two thousand yuan to let him marry a wife, but that even if she gave two thousand yuan today, she would not be able to buy people's hearts.
It's obvious that Chen Huan and Li Chengcai have second thoughts now, otherwise it would be impossible to agree to her parents' proposal today.
If she really liked Li Chengcai, she would never have the heart to let her family hurt him like this.
Li Siyu followed the troops back home, and everyone who was planning to have a banquet saw that the bride had not come back.
"What's going on?" The old lady couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Li Chengcai pushing the bicycle alone.
Li Siyu glanced at the people at home and said, "Let's all come in. Let's talk inside."
She turned to her fourth brother Li Siwen and said, "Everyone has come. Now that the gift money has been returned, it's time to eat."
There is no way that if the bride doesn't take her back, the money given by these people as a gift will be in vain. If the matter is not completed, the gift money will of course be returned to others.
Li Siwen glanced at her and didn't refute, "Now that the little girl is great, what do people say?"
Everyone originally thought that since the bride didn't come, they wouldn't be able to enjoy the meal, but then someone came over and announced that the banquet was open.
The gift money was also returned. Although I didn't know what was going on with Lao Li's family, I didn't leave.
If you don’t eat the food, you are a fool. If someone wants to eat it, then just eat it?
Li Siyu went to the kitchen and told him that the chicken and fish would not be served, but all other dishes would be served.
I'm not getting married anyway, so I keep the fish, meat and chicken for the family to eat.
Others saw the banquet on the table and didn't care. There were several meat dishes. How could they get this banquet for free?
A group of people didn't eat for free. They all said that although Lao Li's family came from the countryside, they were very good at doing things and very honest.
After Li Siyu entered the house, everyone knew what was going on.
"There's still a gift of two thousand yuan, why doesn't he go and grab it!"
