Chapter 727: Greeting and supporting
Now Li Li's betrothal gift, the Gu family gave thirty-two tons.
Mrs. Liu has also thought about it, so she will prepare 32 kilos, and then make up 64 kilos to give to her daughter as a dowry.
When I saw the betrothal gift sent by the Gu family, it was very sincere and generous.
In fact, with the strength of the Gu family, they can give more, but they are afraid of giving too much. Considering how much Mrs. Liu loves her daughter, she will definitely prepare more dowry and does not want to increase Mrs. Liu's burden.
In the past few years, I have been doing business with Liu Pan'er, and I have saved some money. As well as the banknotes that Li Li gave to her mother, I can indeed prepare a decent dowry.
Liu Pan'er and Li Yuanqing also prepared enough for Li Lifeng to marry in style!
When others came to see the dowry, Li Li hid in the house and was too embarrassed to come out.
Li Nan and Li Wei came in and leaned against Sister Ali, "Sister Ali, although Gu Jin is alone, you must also be careful about your dowry. This is carefully prepared by Aunt Xiaohua."
Of course Li Li knew that in order to prepare her dowry, her mother almost spent all her personal money.
After all, the eldest sister got married three months ago, and now she is getting married again.
In her hand, she still had the 110,000 taels of silver notes that Gu Jin had given her before, and the property she had purchased was now producing output. She wanted to give some to her mother in private, but she didn't want it.
"Well, don't worry, what's mine is mine, and what's Gu Jin's is still mine." Li Li said with a smile. Although she also liked Gu Jin, she definitely didn't like him to the point of losing her mind.
Li Nan nodded, "Yes, that's how it should be. Sister Ali, if you are wronged by Gu Qilang, you must say it and we will take it out on you."
Li Wei thought for a while, "Yes, I must say it. I am young and cannot beat Gu Qilang, but my parents are powerful and will support you."
Li Li's eyes turned slightly red, "Well, thank you, and thank you Aunt Liu and Third Uncle."
Li Rong personally carried the delicious food just cooked in the kitchen and put it on the table. Seeing Li Li crying, she whispered: "It's a great day, don't cry, it's time to laugh. You and Gu Jin have known each other for so many years,
If we understand each other, we will live in peace and harmony in the future."
"Sister Ali, don't be reluctant to leave us. If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?" Li Wei shook her little head, feeling proud.
Although this is about the relationship between men and women, it is also very good to use it here at this time.
As long as they are relatives and care about each other, even if they are not together, it will not affect their relationship.
After sending the betrothal gift, the next process also accelerated.
In a blink of an eye, the day came for Li Li to get married.
Fortunately, I was well prepared and everything went according to plan.
Gu Jin, accompanied by young people from a branch of the Gu family, came to welcome the bride.
When they kowtowed in the high hall, Gu Jin and Li Li kowtowed to Mrs. Liu, Mrs. De Rui and General Li.
Mrs. Liu said softly to Gu Qilang: "Qilang, treat Ali well in the future. My daughter suffered a lot when she was young. After she came to the south, I pampered her and grew up."
"If you don't treat her well, as long as I live for one day, I will have a bowl of food for Ali here. I will take him home and I will raise her."
Gu Qilang kowtowed to Mrs. Liu again, "Mom, don't worry, Ali is the one I have longed to marry. Ali is a good girl. I will treat Ali well and honor my mother together with Ali."
This is how a mother who really feels for her daughter is like this.
Not only was Gu Jin not angry, but he was more respectful to his mother-in-law.
Today, those who accompanied Gu Jin to welcome the bride were not only the descendants of the Gu family, but also the eldest prince Yu Ze and the second prince Yu Heng.
It was their first time to attend a folk wedding and they found it particularly interesting.
I looked at this, looked at that, and wanted to write it down so that I could tell my mother about it when I returned to the palace.
Li Rong, her sister, and several little girls from Lijia Village blocked the door, preventing Gu Qilang from entering.
This is called blocking the door.
The unmarried girl on the woman's side sets up some obstacles, and the groom needs to put in effort to get the bride.
"I heard that Mr. Xiao Gu is a good poet, so let me start with a poem to remind you to make up." Li Rong said charmingly, "It is not only elegant, but also easy to understand."
Poems to encourage marriage are necessary for scholars when welcoming a bride.
If you don't prepare five or six poems to encourage your bride to be married, why would you bother to come to your house to get married?
Gu Jin bowed, raised his hands in salute, and said in a loud voice, "I don't know what night it is, so I urge you to go to the balcony and get closer to the mirror. Who said that hibiscus grows in the water and blooms in the bronze mirror?"
Li Rong was surprised, "This poem is good. Do you want another one?"
Li Nan replied crisply: "Yes!"
Gu Jin recited another song, one after another, and the draft in his belly was almost finished.
Gu Jin looked for help at the friends who had come to get married.
The eldest prince Yuze stepped forward and recited a poem loudly. The second prince did not recite it, but took out seven or eight purses embroidered in bright red.
One for each person, filled with gold and silver melon seeds.
Li Rong saw that it was almost done, and then said to Gu Jin: "The makeup poem and the purse are both good. Next comes the sincerity of our woman."
After saying that, Li Rong clapped vigorously.
At this time, under the leadership of Li Dabao, there were dozens of young men from Lijia Village, including Tang Dazhu, Tang Erzhu, Chen Qingsong, Chen Qingshan and others, holding a brick in one hand and a brick in the other.
, slap it hard on it.
Brand new bricks break with a sound.
Li Rong, Li Nan, and Li Wei, who was only four years old behind them, held whips in their hands and swung them in the air.
"Gu Qilang, if you dare to bully my sister Ali, this whip will not be thrown on the ground, but on you. Remember this." Li Rong warned Gu Qilang with a calm look.
When Gu Jin saw these powerful sisters-in-law, he immediately remembered that in order to paralyze Kawamoto Jiro, he came to break off the engagement and was beaten.
This is not a scare, it will really hit someone!
Gu Jin immediately bowed with a very respectful attitude, "Don't worry, sisters, Jin will definitely be good to Ali."
"Then remember this sentence and don't break your promise, otherwise my whip will not recognize anyone." Li Rong replied.
"Yes, the whip doesn't recognize people." Li Nan also yelled, but he was too good-looking and had no deterrent effect.
Li Wei raised her head and looked at Gu Qilang with her nostrils arrogantly, "If you don't keep your word, we will really beat you, so you have to be obedient."
"A good man is an obedient man, just like my father and Mr. Gu."
Gu Jin looked at Mrs. De Rui and General Li's baby bump, and said in a harmonious voice, "Little sister Weiwei, Jin must be obedient."
Li Li in the room was holding back tears.
Her brother and sister outside are supporting her!
Li Fang comforted her in a low voice, "Don't cry. It won't look good if you wear makeup. Get married happily. We are all your support."
"Yeah!" Li Li agreed.
Li Dabao came over and knelt down, "Sister Ali, I will carry you to the sedan chair!"
"Thank you Dabao." Li Li thanked her and lay on Li Dabao's back.
The last time Li Fang got married, no one else could come, but Li Dabao rode back to the south of the Yangtze River without sleep for ten days, carrying Li Fang on his back, and married Li Fang.
At that time, Li Fang looked at Li Dabao, who had returned from the north after a long journey, and burst into tears.
Chapter completed!
