Chapter 718: Discussing Marriage

"Yue'er, don't be in a daze, go change your clothes. Qiao's mother urged.

Today's occasion is very important, Qiao Jiayue has to dress up beautifully.

Fortunately, there are not a lot of clothes in the small courtyard, many of them are new, and you can wear a set of them casually.

Coupled with the cosmetics given by Gu Wenying, through Qiao's mother's hands, Qiao Jiayue changed, and her whole person's temperament was different, so bright that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Qiao's mother looked at Qiao Jiayue and nodded with satisfaction, "My family Yue'er is really good-looking." ”

Qiao Jiayue was wearing a pink coat, a white sweater, and jeans with a little flare on her trouser legs, which made her body more slender.

She yawned when she listened to Qiao's mother's words, and she didn't know what time she and Hu Ailan slept last night, so sleepy!

Qiao's father discussed with Deng Xianchang and set the location at the Overseas Chinese Hotel, where there is an independent box, which will be more private.

After all, it's not good to talk about marriage, and this kind of thing is not good in public.

Because it is in Beijing, there must always be a matchmaker to mediate the relationship between the two families.

However, the two families didn't want to find a matchmaker they didn't know, so they asked Professor Yan to make a cameo, so Professor Yan was pulled over.

If it is in the Gaoshan Brigade, you can just ask Granny Lan to come over, but this is in Beijing, and there is no suitable candidate.

At half past ten, the car sent by the Deng family arrived on time, picked up the people and went to the Overseas Chinese Hotel.

Deng Ying and his parents were waiting at the door, and as soon as they saw Qiao Jiayue and them arriving, they greeted them.

Deng Ying looked at Qiao Jiayue and couldn't help shaking, she was so beautiful today that people couldn't breathe.

Qiao Jiayue noticed Deng Ying's gaze, it was so straightforward, her face suddenly flew on two red glows.

Professor Yan and Qiao Hongliang and Yan Danfeng also came, waiting on the side, and seeing that the two sides had met, he smiled and said, "Everyone has arrived, let's go upstairs." ”

Everyone sat down, and soon the waiter brought tea, and after drinking tea, Professor Yan said a few words, and Deng Xianchang handed over a few pieces of delicate paper, the paper was quite thick, and there were gold edges on the edges.

"This is the sincerity of our Deng family. Deng Xianchang said.

Qiao's father took it and took a look, this is a dowry list written with a brush, which is very detailed.

As soon as he looked at the content, a trace of surprise flashed in Qiao's father's eyes, eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan, this bride price is also high.

In addition, there are a lot of valuable dowry gifts, including the small courtyard where Qiao Jiayue and they live now, two shops, some high-end fabrics, gold and silver jewelry, etc.

Qiao's father took a breath and handed the list to Qiao's mother on the side.

Mother Qiao glanced at it, her face changed slightly, compared to the things on this list, the dowry they prepared was less, so it seemed that they had to add more when they went back.

When ordinary people talk about marriage, there is always a person who comes and goes, using a matchmaker as an intermediary, until both parties are satisfied with these things such as the dowry.

Qiao's mother also met a few times in the Alpine Brigade, but at that time, the matchmaker ran back and forth as an intermediary, and the two families did not meet and talk.

Doesn't such a high gift show in disguise that they are very satisfied with Qiao Jiayue?

Qiao Jiayue sat next to Qiao's mother, and she also saw the contents of the list.

She was a little surprised, but she didn't have any inferiority complex because of this.

Because in her marriage, there will not only be physical objects, but also formulas, a formula, which is enough to support a factory and develop an enterprise.

Father Qiao accepted the order and smiled at Deng Xianchang: "You are so attentive, it is our honor to marry your Deng family." ”

"You have cultivated your daughter so well, and it is also a blessing for our family to be able to marry Jiayue. Deng Xianchang said with a smile.

Professor Yan is here, and he knows that there will definitely be no problems with the dowry, and the focus is still on the wedding date.

He poured tea on both sides, and then took out a piece of red paper from his pocket, "This is the wedding date calculated according to the birth dates of the two children." ”

Everyone's attention was on Professor Yan, and they heard him read: "The appropriate days for this year are the 8th day of February, the 5th day of March, the 16th day of March, the 10th day of April, the first day of June, the 15th day of August, and the 20th day of December. ”

"However, considering other problems, the sixth day of the first month, the tenth day of the first month, the eighteenth day of the first month, and the third day of February next year are also good days. ”

"If you want a later date, I'll do the math. ”

Professor Yan himself calculated for Yan Danfeng and Qiao Hongliang, this kind of thing is once and twice, and he read out several dates in one breath.

Almost as soon as Professor Yan's words fell, the eyes of the others were focused on her.

Qiao Jiayue was a little uncomfortable, she looked at Qiao's mother on the side, and asked in a low voice, "A-Niang, what do you think?"

She felt that Deng Ying's gaze fell straight on her, and she suddenly felt a little empty in her heart.

When Qiao's mother saw Qiao Jiayue asking herself this, she glanced at Qiao's father a little helplessly.

Professor Yan smiled and said, "Let's think about this slowly, let's eat first." ”

Qiao's mother gently grabbed Qiao Jiayue's under the table and motioned for her to write the time on her hand.

Qiao Jiayue bit her lower lip and thought about it, the later this wedding date is, the better, but her hand didn't move, she couldn't make up her mind.

At this time, the table began to be served, Qiao Hongliang approached and said to Qiao Jiayue: "I think April is very good, it is not too hot or too cold, and the temperature is suitable." ”

"Yue'er, the third brother tells you that the sooner this kind of thing happens, the better, and the longer it drags on, the more variables there are. ”

He read the book and solved some doubts in his heart, and he began to care about his sister.

Qiao Jiayue and Deng Ying have a relationship foundation, and the relationship is not bad, and the death of Grandpa Qiao is not a factor that catalyzes the marriage of the two.

Qiao's mother gave Qiao Jiayue a chopstick dish, "Eat first, the time doesn't have to be set today, let's talk about it when we go back." ”

Qiao Jiayue nodded, she ate absentmindedly, and somehow thought of what the old man said when she went to find Granny Lan before the Chinese New Year.

If I'm not mistaken, Granny Lan said that her happy event is coming?

With Professor Yan here, the atmosphere at the dinner table was good.

However, when everyone was almost full, a waiter knocked on the door, saying that someone knew that Professor Yan was here and wanted to see him.

Professor Yan was not very surprised to hear this, he was a frequent customer here, and many waiters knew him, probably someone wanted to invite him to appreciate the calligraphy and painting.

"Who is it? Let's just say that I have a guest today, it's inconvenient, let's do it another day. ”

"It's a foreigner, and he said he would like to ask you for a favor with an ancient painting from the Tang Dynasty. ”

Professor Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and he was paid for ancient paintings in the Tang Dynasty.

Father Qiao smiled and said, "Why don't you ask the waiter to remove the plates on the table and invite someone to talk?"

Father Qiao spoke, and Deng Xianchang did not object, he was also curious, what did he want Professor Yan to help, and he wanted to be paid for ancient paintings.

As you know, in the past 100 years, the war of aggression and the wealth fled overseas, taking with them many antiques and treasures.

If a cultural relic can be returned, Professor Yan is still willing to help.
