Chapter 309: Dressing and Eating and Measuring Household Belongings

In order to do a good job in the matter of their son's marriage, Li Youde and his wife invited the matchmaker Liao Shulan to their home and asked about some relevant etiquette, Liao Shulan talked about local customs, what meeting gifts, jewelry money, change fees, etc. Liao Shulan told sรน that the current market is at least 8888 yuan for the woman, this number is auspicious, this is the lowest in the local area, there is no voucher for good conditions, and you can give as much money as you want, mainly to make the mother's family happy. In fact, the money is not unjustly spent, and it will be brought back when you get married. As the saying goes, marrying a daughter-in-law is better than hiring a daughter-in-law, and hiring a daughter-in-law is an escort.

Li Youde immediately agreed, and did it according to the customs, so that Liao Shulan and Yuan Yuan's family could communicate, as long as they agreed to marry, they could agree to any conditions. Knowing his son's virtues, he tried his best to set the family affairs, so as not to have many dreams at night, and then hurry up to handle the marriage, and when he got married, he would set the situation, so that he would always worry about his son. To tell the truth, he also likes Yuan Yuan very much, this child is steady and down-to-earth, a hundred times stronger than his son, he is very happy to marry Yuan Yuan as his daughter-in-law, and he doesn't care how much it costs.

"I entrust you to handle it, and we will all obey your arrangement. Li Youde said.

"Rest assured, I'll take care of this. Liao Shulan said.

"As long as you do a good job of being able to do a good job, we will not treat you badly. Yang Xiaoying said.

"It's all on me, and it's all going to work. Liao Shulan said.

In the evening, Liao Shulan came to Yuan Yuan's house to discuss the matter of marrying, and the man promised to do it in accordance with local customs, and gave a lot of money, Xing Yanfang nodded after listening, and felt that the necessary process still had to go, otherwise the sisters would ask their daughter how much money they would give when they met. It's impossible not to give a penny, in fact, this is also a form, anyway, the money is for Yuan Yuan, and after getting married, he will take it all away, and he won't ask for a penny, just let people know that he looks good, otherwise it will make people laugh.

"What should you do, you look at it, getting married is a big deal, although it can't be done in a big way, but it can't be too simple. Just about the same. Xing Yanfang said.

"You still understand things, and I'm a matchmaker. Liao Shulan said.

"We don't have so many things, Jinghe, this kid is good, and the family is reasonable, so I won't embarrass them too much. It was lively and harmonious, and the heart was happy. Xing Yanfang said.

"And let me ask, who will follow the relatives. It's not that I'm afraid of a lot of people. Because of how many people to go, the man has to prepare a return gift, and it is best to make sure that he can save the time to prepare. Liao Shulan said.

"Well, we'll talk it around and we'll get back to you. Xing Yanfang said.

"What else are you discussing? Our relatives don't go here, just let Yuan Yuan's aunt follow, she is also a female matchmaker, in fact, this is just a formality. It's best to keep it simple, there's no need to go to so many people. Yuan Weihua said.

"You have to discuss it carefully, it is a great joy to get married, and it will be done by as many people as you go, and then I will arrange it. Liao Shulan said.

"That's it. Yuan Weihua said.

After Liao Shulan left, Xing Yanfang complained that her wife talked a lot, this is her daughter's lifelong event, and she should tell her relatives to go, so it seems that there are people in her mother's family, and it is lively and beautiful.

"This is not a marriage, why do you want to go to so many people, it is most suitable for Yanfen and her family to go, there is no need for more people. Yuan Weihua said.

"It's a bit shabby. Xing Yanfang said.

"What's shabby about this, the appointment is just for the two in-laws to meet, increase their feelings, and simply have a meal, there is no need to make it so complicated. Yuan Weihua said.

"It's all your fault, you should have discussed it with me beforehand, but when you opened your mouth and said it, what did you ask me to say, I thought I was a mother. Xing Yanfang said.

"I'm afraid that you will bring all your relatives, his father is a leading cadre, we have to think about him, why can't we not pay attention to the impact. Yuan Weihua said.

"You think too much, who is not married, how old the son of an official is to marry a daughter-in-law, some etiquette is very normal, what impact will this have. Xing Yanfang said.

A few days ago, the son of a leading cadre was married, and a ceremony was held in the hotel, the scene was very spectacular, and people were very envious of it, but it was secretly photographed and posted on the Internet to cause an uproar. Yuan Weihua said.

"It's a big deal for a child to get married, and it's normal to have a ceremony, so what's the fuss about. Xing Yanfang said.

"You listen to me after I finish speaking, someone did not pay attention to this ceremony, but to pay attention to the watch on his wrist, which is worth tens of thousands. Yuan Weihua said.

"Nowadays, people really have nothing to do, shouldn't leading cadres wear a famous watch, people have money and love to wear what they want, what do they care about. Xing Yanfang said.

"Don't interrupt me, it's not as simple as you think. Yuan Weihua said.

Later, some curious people found the videos and photos of the meeting he attended, and found that it was not this famous watch, but owned many famous watches, which were continuously exposed on the Internet, and many netizens made remarks, how much salary can they afford to buy such famous watches, they must have come from the wrong way, either corruption or bribery, and they can't justify themselves. It attracted the attention of the relevant departments, investigated it, and found that there were many violations of law and discipline, and not only lost the official, but also received legal sanctions. Although he deserves it, if he doesn't hold this marriage ceremony, he may not be discovered.

"Things will be so strict, I don't think his father is that kind of person, nothing will happen, so your worries are purely unnecessary. Xing Yanfang said.

"It's hard to explain things in officialdom, and maybe someone will take advantage of this matter to make a big fuss, so let's think about it carefully, and we must not make it big because of small things. Yuan Weihua said.

"It seems that I can only do what you say, but I feel too wronged. Xing Yanfang said. After listening to her husband's words, I felt that it was reasonable, how could I be an official now without a little thing, the officialdom is fighting openly and secretly, in order to achieve the goal by unscrupulous means, anything will be done, and the slightest negligence will be caught, as a family member, I naturally don't want anything to happen to the Jinghe family.

"What's wrong with this, in my opinion, you should eat at home to save unnecessary trouble. Yuan Weihua said.

When Yuan Yuan returned home, Xing Yanfang told her about the marriage, and said what her father meant, the simpler the marriage, the better, Yuan Yuan nodded and agreed. Xing Yanfang talked to her sister on the phone again, and Xing Yanfen felt that her brother-in-law was very reasonable. At present, leading cadres are very sensitive about what they do, and it is easy to attract people's attention. A few days ago, she also saw such a thing on the Internet, a leading cadre smoking sky-high cigarettes during a meeting, was photographed by netizens and posted on the Internet, which aroused questions from netizens and commented one after another, and was removed from his post and investigated. It's all inconspicuous things, but it's amazing to post it on the Internet, people's eyes are bright, and they will find problems from it. It's best to do this, although it is said that Yuan Yuan has been wronged, but he is steady.

"You and Shulan have a decision, it's best to eat at home, it's also convenient. Xing Yanfang said.

"Okay, no problem. Xing Yanfen said.

"Now people are really, they just think about it if they have nothing to do, and they don't dare to publicize their children's engagement, it should be lively, but it's so simple, I really don't want to go. Xing Yanfang said.

"He is a big cadre, and there must be a lot of people who pay attention, so you must be careful everywhere, and you can't patronize yourself, so as not to cause trouble, and then everyone will not look good, and if you don't get it right, it will hurt the children. Yuan Weihua said.

"It's up to you this time. Xing Yanfang said.

"Why bother with that fashion, it's better to be safe and stable than anything else. Yuan Weihua said.

When she returned to the bedroom and closed the door, the two of them were still discussing the matter of marriage, Xing Yanfang began to mumble, for fear of attracting adverse effects, the marriage ceremony can be simpler, and the meal can also be eaten at home, she has no opinion on this, but some etiquette is indispensable, the money that should be given must be given, otherwise it will not look good on the face, Yuan Yuan can be regarded as a beautiful girl, marrying into his family does not seem low at all, and the man should spend some money.

"I don't know how many greeting gifts my parents-in-law give, I changed my name to my father and mother, and I can't say that I have less money, so that people know how faceless we are, and I think we are easy to bully. Xing Yanfang said.

Didn't Liao Shulan make a statement, she did it according to the customs, and the money she gave was a lot of money, which showed that people were already prepared, and they didn't have to worry about that. Yuan Weihua said.

"But I didn't say how much money I gave, Liao Shulan is also a slippery head, I can already see that sometimes she doesn't speak for us, and thinks about the man everywhere. Xing Yanfang said.

"It's okay to think about it, people are big families, I don't know anything, in fact, this is just a formality, if you want me to say it doesn't matter if you give money or not, the two families meet and have a meal together, as long as the two children are happy. Besides, there is only such a son in his family, and it will all be the two of them in the future, so why bother to be serious about small etiquette. Yuan Weihua said.

"What do you know, what did the sisters of Ming'er ask me about, people know that Yuan Yuan's mother-in-law is a big cadre, and the economic conditions are good, if you don't give a penny, you will definitely talk about it behind your back, and I think we are deliberately slapping people up. Xing Yanfang said.

"You women are like this, you have a good face in everything, you can eat face, you can't speak flexibly, and you can suffocate urine to death if you are alive. Yuan Weihua said with a smile.

"If you let me talk nonsense, wouldn't it be even more of a loss, I have to speak for his family without a penny, what is this called. Xing Yanfang said.

"You think that what they say is true, it's not an exaggeration to say some nonsense for the sake of face, some people have sons who are married, and they all say how much money they give, but in fact, it is not necessarily the truth, and it is not to coax you people with good faces. As the saying goes, dress and eat, measure your belongings, and do as much as you can afford how much money you have. Yuan Weihua said. (To be continued......)
