Chapter 867 - Exaggerated Bride Price Amount
The next day, Dongmei Weiguo and his wife made an appointment with Cui Fei's parents to meet for dinner.
Dongmei and Wei Guo are preparing to entertain Cui Fei's parents at the Tianhui Town Hotel not far from home.
This meeting was also the first meeting between the parents of both parties.
Although Cui Fei is very ugly, when Cui Fei's parents appeared, they still amazed Dongmei and his wife.
Cui Fei's father is tall and handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and broad shoulders.
And Cui Fei's mother, although her eyes are relatively small, her facial features are also beautiful.
On the other hand, Cui Fei does not have his father's thick eyebrows and big eyes, let alone his mother's delicate facial features, and some of them all take the shortcomings of his parents.
Dongmei sighed, why didn't such a beautiful couple give birth to a beautiful daughter?
Could it be a genetic mutation?
Compared with Dongmei's enthusiasm for defending the country, Cui Fei's parents didn't say anything, and they pretended to be like two hundred and fifty eighty thousand, which was indispensable.
After the parents sat down and exchanged pleasantries, the meal began.
Dongmei's hometown has a habit that when the parents of both sides meet, the parents of both sides must count down their sons or daughters, in order to let the other party know the shortcomings of their children before getting married, so as not to regret it after marriage.
So, Dongmei began to count the waves in front of Cui Fei's parents.
Dongmei said: "In-laws, my son, he has no ability, he is timid, and he is wooden, you have to let your family Cui Fei and keep his eyes open." ”
After speaking, Dongmei smiled.
And Wei Guo pointed at Tao Tao and said: "This kid, he was born with bad luck, his work is not good, and his ability is not high, you expect him to live a well-off life, then there is no problem."
But if you expect him to live the life of a rich man, it will be difficult. ”
Compared with Dongmei and Wei Guo's modesty, Cui Fei's parents are not modest at all.
They were even very high-profile, praising Cui Fei in front of Dongmei and Wei Guo.
Cui Fei's mother used a mouthful, and everyone could only understand half of the dialect, praising Cui Fei.
She said: "This daughter of our family has studied well since she was a child and has a good moral character......
She is both kind and sensible......
The most important thing is that our family Cui Fei will live a good life and will be careful in his calculations......"
Cui Fei's father praised Cui Fei even more openly, saying: "Our family Cui Fei, in addition to those advantages, there are many advantages."
For example, she is well-read and gentle......
And ah, she is also very filial to the old man......"
Dongmei and Weiguo listened, the other party was praising their daughter in the sky, and Dongmei and Weiguo felt very embarrassed.
The two sides were eating and chatting, and unconsciously, they talked about the issue of bride price.
Cui Fei's mother said to Dongmei: "In-laws, what about the area in our HN County, but the bride price is relatively high. ”
Dongmei knew that Cui Fei's hometown was from HN County, and at the same time, she was also prepared for a relatively high bride price.
She said: "No matter how high the bride price is, we have to pay it, after all, we are marrying a daughter-in-law for our son." ”
Cui Fei's mother saw that Dongmei's expression was very relaxed, and she knew that Dongmei must have underestimated their bride price in HN County.
So, Cui Fei's mother said: "In our HN County, that area, the average bride price is about 150,000......
There are even higher, 200,000 bride prices, which have also been released. ”
Hearing that she wanted a bride price of 150,000 yuan to marry a daughter, Dongmei was stunned.
Although she was prepared for a high bride price in HN County, she really didn't expect that the bride price in HN County was unacceptable.
When Wei Guo heard Cui Fei's mother hint that she wanted a bride price of 150,000 yuan, Wei Guo was directly angry, and he said: "In that place in your HN County, I think it is selling women, where is marrying women."
I also have a daughter, and when my daughter gets married, I only need a bride price of 20,000 yuan, and when the time comes, I will give all the 20,000 yuan bride price. ”
Dongmei listened to Wei Guo's tone a little stiff, so she poked Wei Guo with her elbow and said, "Can you speak quietly?"
Cui Fei's mother saw that Wei Guo was angry, she smiled and said, "Big brother and sister, don't worry about it first, wait for me to finish talking first." ”
Cui Fei's father also said: "That's the case, in that area of our HN County, the general bride price is relatively high, but we have already come out of our hometown, I will give you a 50% discount, and you can give us 80,000 bride price." ”
Hearing the 80,000 dowry, Dongmei was still shocked and couldn't close her mouth.
She couldn't believe it and said: "Old sister, in our oilfield family home, everyone marries their daughters, and they only need a bride price of 10,000 yuan, which is the highest, and it does not exceed 30,000 yuan."
If you are high, I can give you 40,000.
You want 80,000, it's too unreasonable, right?"
Obviously, Dongmei can't accept the bride price of 80,000 yuan at all.
Hearing that Dongmei was unwilling to pay a bride price of 80,000 yuan, Cui Fei's mother was immediately unhappy.
She said, "Sister, the other girls in the yard, what kind of quality is that, what kind of goods......
Although they are cheap, the bride price is only one or two thousand, but can they compare with our Cui Fei?"
Cui Fei's father also added fuel and vinegar next to him: "Our Cui Fei, that is excellent, not to mention that she is tall, even her appearance and personality, I don't have to say it!"
Dongmei listened to Cui Fei's father's words, and she was also speechless.
Dong Meixin said, your Cui Fei is just tall.
Moreover, Cui Fei doesn't seem to have any conspicuous advantages other than being tall.
Wei Guo thought unhappily, Hongxia and Li Jianjun's two daughters, Li Jing and Li Mao, were born like flowers and jade, white and tender like water, their family conditions are not good, their work is not good, and they only need a bride price of 10,000 yuan.
Song Na, the eldest daughter of Song Nian's daughter-in-law, is an undergraduate graduate of Petroleum University, and when she got married, the bride price was only 8,000, and the bride price was less than 10,000.
However, what about Cui Fei?
Compared with the conditions, she is far less than Li Jing, and Li Mao's conditions are better.
Compared with her academic qualifications, she is not as educated as Song Na.
Compared with her appearance, she is even worse.
She lost them all, and she still needs such a high bride price?
And the reason for Cui Fei's parents is also very strange.
The reason why they want such a high bride price is that they feel that their daughter Cui Fei is a high-end product.
Cui Fei's parents were unhappy when they saw Dongmei and Weiguo, they knew that the bride price was too high.
So, they made an excuse to go out temporarily to discuss the bride price.
When Cui Fei's parents and Cui Fei went out, Wei Guo immediately broke out.
He scolded angrily: "What kind of thing, the price is all over the sky, just a bride price, it costs 80,000 yuan, and what do you say about your daughter, who is higher than the girls around you?"
Why didn't she say that her daughter had the YG virus?
Why didn't she say that her daughter had a craniotomy and had sequelae of headaches......"
Dongmei heard Wei Guo speak too loudly, she hurriedly reminded Wei Guo, saying, "People are at the door, can you talk quietly, what if people hear it?"
Wei Guo said unceremoniously: "I just want them to hear it."
If they blindly want such a high bride price, I don't think this marriage will necessarily be able to get married?"
Dongmei listened to Wei Guo's radical language, and then looked at Taotao sitting next to him, his expression was very embarrassed.
Dongmei comforted Wei Guo and said, "Wei Guo, don't worry, I think, since their Cui Fei has the YG virus and has had a skull, then her parents will definitely make it clear to us at the dinner table in a while, after all, our son is going to marry their woman."
When the time comes, let's kill the price of the bride price down. ”
Hearing this, Wei Guo sat down angrily.
