Chapter 34: Trouble (4)
Seeing a chubby young man dressed in foreign clothes, walking into the box with a smile on his face to toast, Lu Xiaomei's family all stood up. In the countryside, when have you ever seen such a battle.
"Sit down, sit down. I'm a junior to toast, why do you have to stand up. Little sister, let your uncle, aunt and eldest brother sit down and talk. Zhao Changsi hurriedly greeted politely.
"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, sit down and talk. This is not an outsider, sit down, sit down. Lu Xiaomei also blushed and asked her family to sit down and talk. Hearing his daughter speak like this, Lu Xiaomei's father was happy. It seems that the goal of this trip should be no problem.
"Dad, Mom, Changsi is the owner of this hotel. He has come to toast you, so don't be polite. Seeing that everyone had already sat down, Lu Xiaomei introduced herself. Hearing that it was the owner of the hotel, the Lu family was also impressed. Good guy, he is not very old, but he has such a big family business.
After drinking Zhao Changsi's wine, Lu Xiaomei's father wiped the corners of his mouth and boasted: "Boss Zhao is young and promising." It is not simple for one person to hold up such a large faΓ§ade, it is not simple. I mean, are your parents really so relieved? β
"Dad, what are you asking?" Lu Xiaomei knew that this was Zhao Changsi's pain, and hurriedly opened her mouth to brake.
Although Zhao Changsi also felt a pain in his heart, today's happy event came to the door, and it was quickly diluted a lot. He pulled a bench and sat down, but generously persuaded him: "Little sister, don't do this. I don't have parents, and it's not a bad thing. Tell my uncle, and there is nothing. β
With such a good attitude, the conversation will be much smoother. Zhao Changsi looked at the situation on the table, and hurriedly let a lot of dishes be served. In this way, I have been accompanying the Lu family to finish lunch. On the contrary, Lu Xiaomei was busy running in and out, and she never lived in peace. Because of this time, many guests have already reached the time of checkout and left.
Xiaomei's father, named Lu Changfu, is also a person with brains. From Zhao Changsi's respect for him, to Xiaomei's direct responsibility for the cash settlement at the bar, of course he understood that the relationship between his daughter and this Boss Zhao was extraordinary. He squinted his eyes and calculated how much his daughter was worth.
In order to toast Xiaomei's family, Zhao Changsi deliberately changed into the jacket that Ren Xiaotian bought for him, adding a few free and easy feelings. This shape, in the eyes of the little sister's mother, is a lot of plus.
He is good-looking, rich, and blessed. He is not very old, but he is a rich man. is obedient to the little sister and is a person who loves his wife. With these three, Xiaomei's mother gave Zhao Changsi a full score. In addition, Zhao Changsi has no parents, he is just single, and his daughter will not be angry with her mother-in-law after she gets married.
Lu Xiaomei's elder brother Lu Dahai didn't have so many ideas. When he saw the table full of good dishes, his eyes couldn't turn around. His task is to stare closely at the dishes on his plate, eat and drink, and feast on them.
Quan Muwen introduced it for a while, and Ren Xiaotian listened to it, but he didn't find any signs of conflict. He blinked his eyes and asked a little strangely, "Mu Wen, isn't this a very good thing?" Why did it make such a fuss? β
"Alas-" Quan Muwen sighed and said, "Brother Tian, you don't know how to go through the standard right and wrong. β
As soon as Ren Xiaotian heard this, he knew that there was still something to do, so he hurriedly sent a cigarette to Quan Muwen, and after helping to light it, he said: "You say, you speak slowly, I will listen to it." β
A meal should be eaten with great joy. After dinner, Lu Xiaomei first arranged for her family to go to a small hotel nearby to stay. It's just that she doesn't have time to spend with her family, because there are still specialty stores that need someone to help with cooking. Ren Yulan went to the agricultural machinery factory, and the mess was all handed over to Lu Xiaomei to take care of.
Originally, Zhao Changsi offered to help take care of the store for a while, so that Lu Xiaomei would have time to accompany her family. It's just that Lu Xiaomei thought of Ren Xiaotian's instructions, and then thought of Zhao Changsi's ** illness, and she didn't dare to hand over the store to Zhao Changsi to be in charge.
In the afternoon, Xiaomei's mother accompanied her daughter to chat in the store. Her father, Lu Changfu, was just wandering around the hotel. Only her brother wandered around looking for lively places. It wasn't until dinner time that I returned to the hotel like a tired bird.
For dinner, Zhao Changsi came to receive Lu Xiaomei's family as the host. In this matter, Zhao Changsi also had a thought. He wanted to make everything right, and then suddenly notify everyone and give everyone an unexpected surprise. Of course, Ren Xiaotian's inability to participate in the case is also an important reason.
In order to make a good impression of the little sister's parents, Zhao Changsi also tried his best to perform. After drinking and eating, Lu Changfu burped and said, "This long thought, hiccup, do you want to marry our little sister?" Hiccup, huh? β
Hearing that the future father-in-law directly pointed out the theme, although Zhao Changsi felt a little abrupt, he also felt that he was in the right place. How much trouble can you have with a marriage that you and I want? Just gong in front of the face, and make the words clear in front of the drum, and save trouble. Thinking about it like this, Zhao Changsi smiled and said, "Yes, yes." Uncle, I promise that I will not treat my little sister badly. β
"Hiccup, Changsi, how much bride price have you prepared?" Lu Changfu's mind was all about money. Although the title was changed from 'Boss Zhao' to 'Changsi', the inner goal has not changed. This time, a family of three came to the city just for money.
I heard that my daughter was raised by the boss in the city. Since this is the case, of course, there is no need to marry your daughter to the lame man on Zhuangzi. As long as you can give a bride price of 4,000 yuan, everything will be fine. Now it seems that the reality is much better than you might think at home. The daughter is not being adopted, but is being married by the Ming media. In this way, the bride price you want is not a problem at all.
Lu Changfu mentioned the bride price, and Zhao Changsi was mentally prepared. Lu Xiaomei went to work in the city, originally to prepare the bride price for her brother's marriage. Since he got along with Zhao Changsi, he also told Zhao Changsi about it.
"Ready, ready. I heard my little sister say that my eldest brother needs a bride price of 4,000 yuan to marry my sister-in-law. I gave 6,000 yuan to help take care of the drinks. Uncle, do you think this is possible? When he said this, Zhao Changsi was also in high spirits. Hehe, your family wants 4,000, I'll give 6,000, that's always interesting!
"What! What are you talking about? If you want to use 6,000 yuan to marry my daughter, are you marrying a daughter-in-law, or are you calling Hanako? Lu Changfu put the teacup on the table and started a fire.
Hearing Lu Changfu say this, Zhao Changsi's face immediately darkened. 6,000 yuan, or is it called Hanako? The way you gobbled up at noon is really called Hua Zili. Of course, this kind of thing can only be kept in the heart, and it is not easy to say it publicly.
Xiaomei's mother was also stunned at first, and then sighed again. Her lower lip pressed tightly over her shriveled upper lip, suffocating as she held back the anger that rushed out of her heart. The sunken eyes were covered with a vague cloud.
Lu Xiaomei, who had just run outside to settle the bill, happened to walk outside the door. After hearing what his father said, as if someone had pushed him suddenly, he staggered a few steps and hurriedly held on to the door frame. A flush appeared on the pretty face.
For Zhao Changsi, money is his life. Otherwise, you won't be so angry that you vomit blood because you lost money. At this time, when he heard that Lu Changfu wanted the lion to open his mouth, he was about to go crazy. It's just that when he heard the sound behind him and saw Lu Xiaomei so excited, he changed his mind again.
"Uncle, you say, you make an offer. As long as I can do something, for the sake of my little sister, I will admit it. Zhao Changsi gritted his teeth and made the most generous decision in his life. It was also because of such a promise that he won Lu Xiaomei's lifelong love.
When Lu Changfu heard this, he nodded with satisfaction. Well, this kid is on the road. In the end, people who don't have parents to check will be so generous. He grinned and said: "It's all a family, how stingy it is to talk about money, and how much to share." In this way, the family does not speak two words. You can just give the store downstairs to my family. β
As soon as he heard such a request, Zhao Changsi immediately froze. According to his analysis and imagination, he only estimated that Lu Changfu would increase the amount of the bride price. As long as it's within 10,000 yuan, it's not a big deal. As long as the words are clear, Brother Tian, they will support themselves. It's just that he calculates the heavens and the earth, but he didn't calculate that Lu Changfu would calculate his idea on the specialty store.
"Dad, what are you talking about!" Lu Xiaomei stood outside the door with a pair of incredible eyes, glaring at her proud father angrily. She couldn't figure it out, was this still the father who loved her? Is this still the father who has promised himself many times, saying that as long as he helps his brother get enough dowry, he will let himself get married?
The mother sitting next to her also couldn't understand the words of her old man. This time the whole family came to the city, because I heard that my daughter climbed into a small boss. At that time, if it was adopted, then it would be compensated, and then the daughter would be brought home. If it's a normal marriage, then set things up. Of course, he also asked for the bride price of his son's daughter-in-law.
Why did the old man change his mind after the children promised everything? She sat aside and asked uneasily, "Old man, what are you talking about?" How can we ask for someone's property? β
"Dad, how can I ask for Boss Zhao's shop. Have you drunk too much? Lu Dahai also felt a little incomprehensible, and bluntly asked.
At this moment, Zhao Changsi was already blood-red, sweating, and panting. Bear, I endure. For the sake of my little sister, I must endure humiliation.
