Chapter 334: Dowry
The Long family is very large, and the bigger the family, the more indifferent they are to each other.
It's just the opposite.
The bigger the home, the faster the notification.
From the time Bai Fei expressed his intention to the porter receiving the order to take him to the living room to wait, there was no more than a minute in between.
Bai Fei's self-knowledge can tell him exactly that this is definitely not because of his identity, but an almost standard procedure.
No big family will make any guest feel left out in the cold. Guests who are not welcomed by them will not be able to walk in front of their door, and as long as you go to their door and knock, then you are their most honored guest, whether you are a beggar or a prince, you will get the most honorable treatment.
Bai Fei obviously didn't understand this. He didn't drink the tea and pastries that served him, and just sat there and waited for the arrival of Miss Longyi.
It's just that what he is waiting for is not Miss Longyi, but Miss Longyi's father, Long Tian.
"Young people nowadays are becoming less and less polite. I don't know how to bring a gift when I go to someone's house. Long Tian smiled and waved at Bai Fei to signal him to sit down before continuing: "If you can't find a suitable gift, you can buy some fruit on the street." β
Bai Fei stood there awkwardly. I really don't know what to say. This kind of thing really didn't notice and didn't think of it.
"Remember the next time you come over. While I don't mind your gift, I mind your mind. I didn't bring any gifts to the door, but I felt a little embarrassed. Long Tian looked at Bai Fei's embarrassed appearance and smiled freely: "Although you probably think that you are not coming to see me, weishenme still wants to bring me gifts?" Does my embarrassment have anything to do with you? β
"I didn't think so." Bai Fei wiped his sweat and looked at Long Tian, and he felt that he was almost a little unbearable.
"That's even more wrong, you have to know that when you go to a girl's house to meet someone else's girl, how can you get around her parents?" Long Tian looked at Bai Fei who was wiping his sweat and smiled: "Or when have you ever seen a girl who is less than twenty years old who can receive a boy in her own home without going through her parents?" β
Bai Fei could only be silent.
How to say that.
"You said that such a large group I manage has to worry about how troublesome it is for my daughter. The eldest daughter doesn't let me worry, and the younger daughter doesn't let me worry either. As soon as I heard that a man had come into the house to look for her, I hurried to her. I'll have to be told later. Little brother, it's not easy to raise a daughter. If you don't even bring me some fruit, I won't let you in next time. You know? β
Bai Fei lowered his head and listened to the lesson, unable to refute a word.
"Counting, this is the first time we've officially met. It is good in the public, too. Whether it's private or private, this should be the first time to meet, right? Long Tian looked at Bai Fei with a smile and asked.
The sweat on Bai Fei's head was dripping and he nodded. He only now found out that whether it was the sunshine in the game or Bai Fei in reality, he was completely in the palm of this middle-aged man's hand.
"Then you should have listened to what I said, right?" The smile on Long Tian's face slowly put away: "I want to ask, do you want to marry my daughter, or do you want to have fun?" β
Bai Fei lowered his head and rolled his eyes. How can I answer that? I guess you won't let me go of any answer.
"I came to her because I wanted to discuss something with her." Bai Fei cleverly skipped the topic.
It's just that this sentence is already another answer in Long Tian's ears.
"That is, you want to look at it like this. Let's get along like this for now. Depends on how things play out, right? In other words, you haven't decided how to determine your relationship with my daughter. Long Tian stood up and walked to Bai Fei's side and looked at him and sneered: "Young man, you will die miserably if you step on two boats, do you know?" β
Bai Fei didn't blush, but he didn't refute either, no matter what position he was in, he had no room to refute.
"You ......"
"Dad, what are you doing here? Aren't you busy? β
Long Tian wanted to say something, but Long Yi's voice had already sounded nearby.
"It just so happened that Yujian got to this little brother, so I said a few words to him. We fell in love at first sight and chatted for a while......"
Long Yi looked at Bai Fei. Look at her father again: "Dad, he has something to talk about when he comes to me, so I'll take him to the martial arts hall." You have to talk to him, next time you call him. β
"Let's go." Long Yi walked directly to Bai Fei's side and took his arm out of the living room.
Long Tian looked at the backs of the two and frowned. It took a while to leave the living room.
Bai Fei followed Long Yi all the way into the martial arts hall. Long Yicai let go of his arm and looked at him, obviously a little unhappy: "You come to me, can't you make a phone call first?" β
"I called, but I didn't get through." Bai Fei replied.
"In the morning I was practicing martial arts. If you don't have time to look at your phone, can't you wait a day, at most. I'm sure I'll call you back when I see it, and you're running to the door yourself. Long Yi's tone was somewhat impatient.
Bai Fei didn't quite understand her impatience, and only found out after Long Yi's explanation. Like him, who came to the door empty-handed and without anything and no etiquette, the Long family had not been in such a situation for at least twenty years.
"The last time someone came to the door empty-handed was 20 years ago. That man's martial arts were extremely strong. One person broke up half of the Long family. zuihou is out of Kanto, so no one blames you, you didn't bring anything like this, and you didn't have any etiquette and went straight to the door. Long Yi's face was a little ugly and sighed: "To put it bluntly, it is to provoke the face of our Long family." β
Bai Fei's face was extremely ugly now. The gap between bringing some fruit and not bringing it was so big, he really didn't think about it. It's just that his face slowly returned to normal, because his mobile phone began to vibrate, it was a message sent to him by Xuanyuan Beauty, and the message was only four words.
"Come to the living room."
As soon as he shrugged his shoulders, Bai Fei let out a long breath and said, "It's a beauty." She helped me bring me gifts. β
Long Yi looked at Bai Fei a little relaxed, but there were some other flavors in his heart.
When the two returned to the meeting room again, there were already more than a dozen people in the meeting room.
Except for Xuanyuan Beauty and the two old men, the others were all fully armed and equipped with live ammunition.
What happened?
Bai Fei and Long Yi looked at each other. I didn't quite understand and looked at the Xuanyuan beauty in the living room and Long Tian, who had returned again.
"Is this Miss Long Yi? Sure enough, the temperament is compelling, and it is really necessary to take a look at it in person, otherwise it would be a joke if such a valuable thing was not suitable. One of the two old men looked at the dragon and nodded and smiled: "Forehead, eyebrows, eyes." Neck bones. Hair type. There is indeed a feeling that makes all the dΓ©cor lose its color. β
Although Long Yi is a person who is often praised, he is a little embarrassed to be praised like this.
"Elder Liang. Such praise will make young people proud. Long Tian looked at the old man with a smile and said, "But it makes me even more curious." What is it that is worth letting Liang Lao and Zhu Lao go together. β
"Nothing special, a little thing. This Miss Xuanyuan told me what Mr. Bai Fei had done. I'm happy and ashamed, and I'm honored to have the opportunity to help an old man like me. What's more, whether it is the price offered by Mr. Bai Fei or Miss Long Yi, it is not an insult to this item. Lao Zhu, do you say yes? β
"Yes." The other old man replied, just looking at the things protected by the more than a dozen armed guards, there was still a little distress in his eyes. He took a deep breath before walking over and taking out the key from his arms.
The polished shiny key.
"It's a set of jewelry, but it wasn't a set. Includes bun, necklace, two earrings. Two bracelets. A pair of rings. There are eight items in total. Lao Liang and I spent a lifetime to complete this set. Zhu Lao slowly inserted the key in, twisted it a few times, and then gave way to Liang Lao.
Liang Lao also took out a key and twisted it a few times.
The two writhed back and forth a total of nine times before stopping.
"Is this a lost Qiankun lock?" Long Tian looked at the box that everyone was protecting, and asked with some surprise.
"The Qiankun lock is right, but it may not be lost. Jishu will always improve, except for those things that will become more valuable over time, everything else will be obsolete by time. A lot of things that sound great don't seem to have much effect now, like this Qiankun lock, we don't use it to prevent others from stealing. It's just that the lock reminds us of some people. Liang Lao slowly opened the first box.
A bun of green hair appeared in front of everyone.
"This is Tang Taizong's bun for the eldest grandson Wuji." Liang Lao looked at everyone who was shocked and smiled: "I won't give you the certificate." As for how I got it, that's a long story, and I won't tell you about it now. β
"The bracelet and earrings were not the same pair, so we each used a box. There are also seven boxes. We open it as we talk. Liang Lao slowly introduced them to them.
"The necklace is said to be a necklace given to Bao Xi by King Zhou You. We don't know if it's true or not. However, we can be sure that it is a necklace of the Western Weekend year. β
"Two earrings, one is one on the Gillian of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The other is from the end of the Sui Dynasty. Zhu Lao introduced: "But it's just a legend, we don't know whether it's true or not, we can only confirm that the age is the same." Style matching. β
"Two bracelets. One is from the early Ming Dynasty. One is from the Southern Tang Dynasty. β
"Zuihou is a pair of rings. The ring is not an ancient object, but a work of recent years, and it is white jade. Fortunately, jade rings have become much cheaper than diamonds in recent years. Otherwise, I really can't afford to buy such a good jade. "Old Zhu opened the box where Zuihou put the jade ring ring.
There were eight items in total, making everyone's eyes a little unable to move.
"Please check it out. If the authenticity can be confirmed, then the transaction can be considered completed after acceptance. Liang Lao looked at the eight jade pieces and the real fascination in his eyes.
Long Tian didn't say much, and directly called the professionals at home to start discussing with the two old men. And his own eyes looking at Bai Fei and Xuanyuan Beauty already had a lot of weirdness.
Bai Fei's eyes looking at Xuanyuan Beauty were also very strange.
Xuanyuan Beauty smiled at him and turned to Long Tian and said, "I don't know how Mr. Long Tian feels about the dowry?" β
"Dowry?"
"Dowry?"
"Dowry?"
Long Tian, Long Yi, and Bai Fei spoke in surprise together.
"Yes, this is Bai Fei's dowry for marrying Miss Long Yi. Is Mr. Long Tian still satisfied? Xuanyuan Beauty didn't care about Bai Fei and Long Yi, looking at Long Tian and smiling.
The meaning of laughter...... (To be continued......)
