Chapter 605 Don't accept the bride price, give the dowry instead
The family entered the private room, and Su Qingmei and her parents were already inside.
"Uncle, auntie!"
Su Qingmei stood up and saw Chen Yan and Lin Xiaoshuang, a smile appeared on her face:
"Sister, Xiaoshuang, you are here too."
Chen Yan and Lin Xiaoshuang stepped forward, and the three girls held hands intimately and talked in low voices.
Su Weizhang and Wei Younan also stood up. In fact, the two families had met last night, but today was the first time they had dinner together.
Moreover, we are discussing the marriage of our children, which has a very formal sense of ceremony.
"Sister, Professor Su, I'm sorry, I'm late!"
Zhang Ling stepped forward with a warm smile on her face.
"No, we just came."
Wei Younan also smiled and stretched out his hand: "Sister Zhang, Mr. Chen, sit down quickly."
The two hostesses were talking, while the two men looked at each other and sat obediently next to their hostesses.
Lin Zhou and Su Qingmei also sat beside their parents.
This was the first time for Su Qingmei to experience this kind of meeting with her in-laws before getting married. She was suddenly a little nervous. The singing queen, who was so dazzling on the stage, was actually at a loss at this moment.
The mother next to me spoke first: "Her father and I are very supportive of Qingmei and Lin Zhou. As for how to organize the wedding of the two children, it depends on the opinions of Sister Zhang and Mr. Chen."
"And get the certificate."
Su Weizhang added next to him. Wei Younan glanced at him. Professor Su immediately shut his mouth. Wei Younan continued to say to the two in-laws:
"There is also a time to obtain the certificate. Is there anything particular about it?"
In some places, receiving a certificate and holding a wedding must be considered an auspicious day. Wei Younan and Su Wei Zhang didn't care about this, and they respected the opinions of Lin Zhou's parents when they raised it.
"We don't have any particular requirements here. It just depends on what the two children want."
Zhang Ling said quickly.
Wei Younan immediately looked at Lin Zhou and Su Qingmei. She was used to giving orders in the company, and now she was still the same as in company meetings, where orders and prohibitions were enforced vigorously and resolutely.
Chen Yan stuck out her tongue and touched Lin Xiaoshuang.
Your brother’s mother-in-law has such a strong aura!
"I listen to him." Su Qingmei's voice was clear and sweet.
Lin Zhou immediately felt the substance of his prospective mother-in-law's gaze, and he quickly said:
"If I want to get the certificate, it will be next week, June 6th?"
"Sixty-six great success? Great!" Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe both agreed.
"Okay!" Su Wei Zhang agreed, and then Wei Younan glanced at him and shut up again.
Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe looked at each other.
Chen Jiahe sympathizes: My father-in-law is so pitiful!
Zhang Linghehe: Now you know how gentle I am, right?
"Then the date for collecting the certificate will be June 6th." Wei Younan agreed and continued:
"Are you collecting the certificate in Linjiang? I should be on a business trip abroad that day, so I might not be able to make it."
"It's okay, Auntie, Qingmei and I can go. You, uncle, and my parents don't need to come over."
Lin Zhou said.
"Yes, yes." Su Qingmei agreed obediently, like a cute nodding robot.
Wei Younan looked at his daughter and shook his head secretly. She looked like him back then. He hoped Lin Zhou wouldn't be like Su Wei Zhang.
Then comes the next topic.
"What do the two in-laws think about the time, location, and preparation details of the wedding?"
Wei Younan continued to host the "meeting".
"that……"
Chen Jiahe touched Zhang Ling under the table. Zhang Ling glared at him, and then spoke:
"My mother-in-law, it's the bride price...how much do you think is appropriate?"
When this sentence was finally asked, Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe both raised their concerns.
It wasn't that they were reluctant to part with the money, but that they were afraid that their cold-tempered mother-in-law would tell them a figure that she thought was appropriate but that was beyond their reach.
There was no way, Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe had been ordinary people all their lives, but their son suddenly cheated on him and found a big star girlfriend, so the old couple had to follow their son across several social classes.
Even if Wei Younan offered one to two million, the two of them could only grit their teeth and agree.
I fought hard for my son!
The two people who had a good rapport even held each other's hands under the table, but they heard the cold and strong mother-in-law opposite said with some surprise:
"Didn't Qingmei tell you? Our hometown doesn't have the custom of accepting betrothal gifts."
"..."
The scene was quiet for a while, and Wei Younan continued:
"But we have rules for giving dowries. Here is the list of dowries I have prepared. You two can take a look. If there is anything missing, I will make up for it."
Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe were stunned. Zhang Ling quickly reached out and took the order, and the two of them looked down.
house, set.
Cars, two.
500,000 in cash.
In addition to these three items, there are also dozens of lines of furniture, various wedding items, etc.
The couple were stunned. Chen Jiahe raised his head and asked:
"Why are there two cars?"
Wei Younan said: "One is a car, which Qingmei and Xiaolin use for work, and the other is a nanny car, which will be more convenient when we have children in the future."
Zhang Ling and Chen Jiahe were a little confused.
No dowry?
Why pay such a generous dowry?
The two people's tragic and solemn expressions suddenly turned into astonishment.
Lin Zhou suddenly said: "Auntie, Qingmei and I have discussed it. We will prepare the wedding room and the wedding car ourselves. If you don't accept the bride price, there is no need for the dowry."
"You and your uncle raised Qingmei, and I will take care of her in the future. Don't worry!"
Wei Younan looked at Lin Zhou for a while and finally nodded:
"Dowry is the custom in our hometown. If you don't want the house and money, just keep the car."
Su Weizhang said in surprise: "There are men, is there such a custom in our hometown?"
He and Wei Younan were both from Su City, but they were not in the same county. He had never heard of the custom in Su City of giving a dowry instead of accepting a betrothal gift.
Wei Younan looked at him coldly, and Su Wei Zhang patted his head.
"Well, I remembered, it does exist."
In the end, Lin Zhou could only accept the gift from his mother-in-law.
Then the two parties began to discuss the details and customs of the wedding, and Zhang Ling became very familiar with this.
"Three pieces, bedding, clothes, and cabinets, we will prepare them."
"The quilt should be embroidered with hundreds of descendants, and it should also be embroidered with dragons and phoenixes to show auspiciousness."
"We also need to prepare red dates, peanuts, longan, and lotus seeds to scatter on the new bed on the wedding day, which means that a child will be born early..."
Su Qingmei's head was dizzy after hearing all the details. She really didn't expect that getting married would be so elaborate.
Wei Younan listened very carefully, wrote down each item, and discussed with Zhang Ling who was responsible for what.
This meal lasted from noon to two o'clock in the afternoon, and the two hostesses basically sang opposite each other.
The people next to them stared blankly at the two of them. Lin Xiaoshuang lowered her head to eat in silence. Chen Yan dozed off and began to regret why she came with her.
"Sister Zhang, that's all for now. If there are any other details, we can communicate at any time."
"okay!"
At 2:30 in the afternoon, the two hostesses finally came to an end.
"that……"
Su Weizhang raised his hand and said weakly:
"My relatives in my hometown have a custom that if you marry your daughter, you have to hold an engagement banquet in your hometown."
Everyone looked at him. Su Wei Zhang looked at Wei Younan and continued:
"Qingmei, her uncle and her second uncle all want to meet Qingmei and Xiaolin. You know, they have a lot of rules there, and there is also the Su family's old house. We haven't been back for so many years. Now that Qingmei is getting married, we should go back.
It’s a trip”
"Su Wei Zhang, that is your hometown and has nothing to do with my daughter! If you want to go back, you can go back by yourself!"
