Chapter 460: Marriage Proposal
Grandpa Shen said these words seriously, and teased Shen Guodong again, "This kid has too much temper, and he makes mistakes from time to time, so he can cure him!" So I can only be wronged! ”
Shen Guodong didn't care at all, and seized the opportunity to give Zhou Wanwan benefits, "Grandpa, you have to bring some dowry gifts when you come to propose marriage, right?" How could anyone marry a granddaughter-in-law so empty-handed! ”
Grandpa Shen immediately retorted, "I'm still marrying my granddaughter!" Don't you give a bride price when you marry a daughter-in-law? My good granddaughter is cheap, you are stunned, I won't agree if you don't give more dowry! ”
In the end, Grandpa Shen really took out the dowry, a pair of jade bracelets full of emerald, and the water head was excellent, "This kid Guodong is much richer than my old man now, don't be polite, let him break the bill ruthlessly!" ”
Zhou Chen has been in the archaeological field for many years, and at a glance, he knows that this pair of jade bracelets is not ordinary, "Grandpa Shen, this pair of bracelets is enough to be qualified as a national treasure, even the Forbidden City may not be able to find a few pairs, don't be modest, this is a good thing that money can't buy." ”
Someone knew the goods, Grandpa Shen was very happy, and went to give Zhou 11 and Zhou 12 a piece of jade engraved with a longevity and a hundred years old, which is also a rare good jade. also gave Shi Yun a big red envelope, "You gave birth to two good children!" Great work! Grandpa rewards you! ”
Then quietly went to coax Zhou Wanwan, "Grandpa still has a lot of good things in his hands, all of them are taken out to attract attention, and I will secretly give them to you in the future!" ”
How could Grandpa Shen have these things in his hands, Shen Guodong secretly complained to Zhou Wanwan, "Don't listen to the flattery of outsiders, what a revolutionary, grandpa used to be a ruffian!" People have a breeze on their sleeves to make a revolution. Wherever he went, he did not forget to save a small treasury for himself, and in the turbulent years he fought from south to north, and from north to south. What kind of big landlords and big capitalists haven't cleaned up! He has a lot of good things in his hands! ”
Then he pinched Zhou Wanwan's little face and smiled, "Our family recruits rare people, and the old man is very eccentric, so you can keep it if you give it to you, don't be polite to him, let's pass it on to the children as heirlooms in the future!" Xiao Er is right, these things can't be bought even if you have money now. ”
Grandpa Shen sat for a while and then got up and went to Li's house. For the marriage of the two children, they have to formally meet the elders, and the serious elders of Zhou Wanwan are the grandfathers and uncles of the Li family.
Married family. The man always has to keep his posture low, and Grandpa Shen did not slack off at all because of the disparity in identity with the Li family, and took Shen Guodong and half a car of gifts to the official meeting.
When they returned from the Li family, Shi Yun began to worry about Zhou Wanwan's dowry. couldn't help but discuss it with Zhou Yang immediately. "You ask Xiao Er to inquire carefully, what are the girls in the city to prepare for their marriage, and many of us have purchased them for the girls. It's best to ask what Guodong's two cousins-in-law brought with them when they got married, and we can't be worse than others. ”
Zhou Yang smiled and comforted Shi Yun, "Grandpa Shen is marrying a granddaughter-in-law and a granddaughter, and we are even more sisters marrying and younger brothers marrying daughters-in-law." If you prepare a dowry for your mother, do you also have to prepare a wedding house for Guodong? ”
"That's what I said! Can that be the same?! "Feelings determine the position. It is impossible for Shi Yun to really regard Shen Guodong as his own brother.
"Don't worry, Guodong told me that he has prepared all the things for marriage, and we may not be able to use them if we buy them, so we don't need to prepare."
Shen Guodong really treats Zhou Yang as a big brother, and he can't help but report anything to him, the drawings of their new house have already been shown to Zhou Yang, and every detail is planned carefully, and he may not be willing to buy him something if others want to buy him.
It was the dedication to build his own home with his own hands, and Zhou Yang could feel his mood, so he didn't interfere at all.
"Then don't we have anything for you?" Shi Yun absolutely couldn't accept it. She has gotten along with Zhou Wanwan since she was a child, and her sister-in-law over the years has really had the affection of an eldest sister-in-law like a mother.
"I plan to buy a house for Nannan in the provincial capital, which is considered a dowry for him." No matter how relieved Shen Guodong is, Zhou Yang still wants to give his sister a little more, and always feels that in this way she can be more secure and safer.
"When the second child gets married, let's also give a set, and when the eldest brother and sister-in-law can't be too partial!" Shi Yun thinks this is very good, the house is always the same thing there, and it will not be wasted if you can't live in it. They don't care if they give away two houses, and their family savings are reduced by half.
"Shi Lei will build a house next year, let's help more, we are all younger brothers and sisters, none of us can be wronged." Zhou Yang reciprocated and shook Shi Yun's hand.
"We don't have to help too much, they can get by, and we don't have to worry too much." Although Shi Yun is happy, he has his own principles for living:
"I know what you think, but they can't compare with Xiao Er and Nannan, Xiao Er and Nan Nan have not spent much money on the family this year, and we can't live so well without Guodong. Relatives also have to be courteous, Shi Lei They really have an urgent matter, we must help, usually small to help is enough, you can't send money for no reason, and then spoil them. ”
Shen Guodong heard Zhou Yang talk about Shi Yun's dowry for Zhou Wanwan, knowing that she was taking care of the little girl, he was very happy, and he spoke even more invisibly, "Sister-in-law, you can't just think about getting a dowry for Zhou Wanwan, you have to help me!" Our family's money is all there, you can ask her to give me more pocket money every month! ”
The whole family was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter, no one thought that Shen Guodong, who was not afraid of the king of heaven, could have such a day.
Shen Guodong doesn't mind at all that others say that he is afraid of his wife, if he is afraid of his wife, he must have a wife first! He now wants the world to know that he is about to have a wife!
Grandpa Shen laughed so much that tears were about to come out, and he pulled Zhou Wanwan, who was flushed, and asked her, "How much pocket money do you give that bastard boy a month?" You can't give too much! In the future, you have to spend money to let him report in advance! ”
Grandpa Shen is really very busy, and he barely squeezed out all day today, so he has to rush back, and he also has to bring Shen Guodong back.
Lin Zhaoheng wants to take his family back to his hometown for the Lantern Festival, although this time it is a private event, his identity is there. The relevant ministries and commissions of the state and the provinces will not slack off. As the general agent of his investment in the mainland, Shen Guodong must of course go back to receive him, and he must also participate in the preparation of all reception matters.
And Lin Zhaoheng plans to take his family to Shen Guodong's house for a private visit. As an elder, Grandpa Shen will also be received at home at the arrangement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. So Shen Guodong has another important reception to prepare.
But Shen Guodong was reluctant to be late every day, and the little girl finally responded to his feelings unreservedly, he couldn't wait to hide her in his eyes all the time and put it on the tip of his heart, how could he be willing to be separated for more than half a month. There are still more than 20 days before the little girl starts school, and Zhou Chen also stays at home, she will definitely have to wait until the day before school starts.
But he was reluctant to take her back, and he would have to be busy when he went back. He didn't have time to spend time with her at all, and he didn't feel at ease where he put her, so there was really only one way to stay at home.
Shen Guodong was in a dilemma. Holding Zhou Wanwan and refusing to let go, the thought of not seeing her for so long is like having her heart twisted hard, it is really indescribably uncomfortable.
"Brother Shen. Coming soon? ”
"Wait a little longer. I'll accompany you after dinner. "It's good to be able to stay for a minute longer.
"It takes a few hours to go back, and it's not safe to travel at night. Grandpa Shen is old, and going back too late will affect his rest, won't he have to fly to Beijing tomorrow? ”
"Then let Grandpa go back first."
"But you have to let me go first! Everyone in the family is here, and it's not good for us to hide for so long. Although Zhou Wanwan said this, she still gently patted Shen Guodong's back a few times, as if comforting a wayward child.
"I'm leaving, just let me hold for a while!" Shen Guodong doesn't care if it's good or not. I didn't even realize that I looked like a coquettish bear now, almost holding the petite girl in my arms tightly with my hands and feet.
"But I still have to say goodbye to my eldest brother and sister-in-law. I had to coax Xiao Eleven, and I didn't pack my luggage. Zhou Wanwan looked up at Shen Guodong with a smile.
Shen Guodong lifted the little villain up with a snort, and threw it several times like a child before he could barely suppress the joy in his heart, "Hello! You can't bear me, right?! You gave up staying at home with your eldest brother and second brother in order to go back to accompany me! ”
Zhou Wanwan covered his mouth, "Be quiet!" What if they hear it? Zhou Xiaoer will definitely have to put all the accounts on your head! ”
Shen Guodong kissed Zhou Wanwan's palm heavily, nodded vigorously, and then smirked against her forehead, and Zhou Wanwan couldn't help but laugh with him. The eyes of the two people looking at each other were full of sweet joy, like two children secretly sharing candy. The air around them became gentle and sweet.
"You still don't want to go back, I'm definitely very busy these days, I don't have time to accompany you, how boring you are at home." After the surprise, Shen Guodong began to be reluctant to let the little girl go back to suffer, this time when it came to letting her stay, although he was reluctant, he was more down-to-earth care, "You just stay here, and I'll pick you up when I'm done." ”
"I'll go back to live with Grandpa Shen, Xiao Wang will play with me, Aunt Pony will make food, paint during the day, and wait for Brother Shen to come home from work for dinner at night."
Shen Guodong took a deep breath and hugged this little girl who had grown up on the tip of his heart since she was a child, she just had the ability to make his heart tremble with her with a word.
How could she be so intimate and intimate with his heart! It was as if everything was growing according to what he liked the most, the way he longed the most, always knowing when and what kind of words to say that would most touch the deepest string in his heart, always when he thought he couldn't be excited anymore, he was caught off guard by her and his heart was like a frenzy.
Zhou Wan is leaving, and Zhou Chen is also ready to go together, several of his studies in the archaeological institute have not yet been completed, and he has a large chunk of time during the holidays, hoping to make progress.
Zhou Chen was leaving, and there was no one left, so several people decided to go back with Grandpa Shen.
Although it was sudden, Zhou Yang was used to the fact that his younger brothers and sisters would have their own things to do when they grew up, and although he was reluctant, he was still very open-minded to prepare things for them to take away.
Zhou Wanwan hugged Zhou Shiyi for a long time, promised to take him to the zoo and camping during the summer vacation, and secretly promised to buy him a small pistol and a big water gun, so as to coax the little guy's smiling face. hugged Zhou Twelve and kissed and kissed, this child looks like a day a day, and her breath is more and more like Zhou Chen, which really makes her look at it and like it.
Then I have to coax Zhao Xiaosi'er, fortunately, there is a Shen Guodong who is the most reluctant in this kid, she doesn't have to coax so hard, but the ten-year-old little adult is not as easy to fool as Zhou Shiyi, and in the end, Zhao Dazhuang tore him off Shen Guodong to say goodbye.
Everyone was ready to get in the car, Zhou Chen was still muttering to Zhao Xiaosan'er, and finally this guy who had grown taller and stronger than Zhou Chen assured Zhou Chen with full admiration and trust, "Little second brother, don't worry!" I listen to you! ”
It's like selling him, and I'll go to count the money for Zhou Chen.
On the way, everyone joked with Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen smiled meaningfully, "Such a good young man, a fool sold him!" I bought him! (To be continued.) )
