Chapter 257: Dowry

It's more about wanting to see Jiang Cheng'er's jokes and see how she can't get off the stage.

In public, Han Baichuan pulled up Jiang Cheng'er's sleeves and stood in front of everyone and said: "Everyone didn't know before, but now that the marriage contract between me and Jiang Cheng'er has been announced, I will choose an auspicious day to propose marriage." As for today's matter, whether this dress is what I want to give to Qinglin, or whether I leave it at Jiang Cheng'er's house, I don't want to do it with you, right? ”

What Han Baichuan said is actually quite authoritative, after all, everyone is also afraid of Han Baichuan, for fear of retaliating on the day of his gold list title.

Jiang Cheng'er never thought that Han Baichuan would say such a thing, she stood on the side with a red face and red ears in shame, and buried her head silently. Qinglin took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and slipped to Jiang Cheng'er's side, holding Jiang Cheng'er's sleeve tightly.

Qinglin raised his head and looked at Jiang Cheng'er, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Sister, I am willing to marry you, and I am relieved." ”

Jiang Cheng'er immediately gave Li Qinglin a roll of his eyes.

This farce dissipated, and Fengxian cried at home for several days, almost every day with tears. When she met people, she said that she was cheated by the fat aunt and deceived by the fat aunt.

As for Lao Li's family, I heard that Jiang Cheng'er was going to marry Han Baichuan, but she was happy for several days.

After all, Han Baichuan's family is poor, and if Jiang Cheng'er marries him, the Wang family is naturally happy.

Han Baichuan hadn't gone to Jiang Cheng'er's house to propose marriage, and when he came to the town, Jiang Cheng'er began to look at the red silk for himself.

"Sister, I said that these are actually prepared by the man's family, you don't have to look at anything." Xiaohua followed behind Jiang Cheng'er, looked at the red silk and said.

Jiang Cheng'er pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Han's family is not good, besides, I don't necessarily want to use these for that kind of thing." ”

Jiang Cheng'er buried her head after speaking.

"Alas, you will be the Han family in the future, and you are really a sister and a younger brother. But I was worried that no one would dare to marry you, but now it's good, it's a matter of mine for me. After Li Qinglin finished speaking, he quickly fled from Jiang Cheng'er's side, for fear of being beaten by Jiang Cheng'er.

In fact, Jiang Cheng'er didn't dare to be sure whether what Han Baichuan said that day was true or false.

But when she looked at the red silk sold in the cloth house, it was really rare, and she couldn't move her step when she looked at it.

Jiang Cheng'er took Qinglin and Xiaohua to eat and drink in the town, and after having some fun, she planned to go home. I don't know what the reason is, Jiang Cheng'er has become in a good mood these days, and even on weekdays, she has become a lot lazy, and Jiang Cheng'er has taken Qinglin and the others out to play together when she has nothing to do these days.

"This is not like my sister, my sister was not like this before, but at that time I was thinking about how to make money to support my family day and night, alas, if I want to get married, it is really different." Qinglin pretended to be sad as he spoke, and sighed.

Before, Jiang Cheng'er just felt that she only knew how to make money all day long, and when she thought that she had almost no time to play with Qinglin, if she really married Han Baichuan, she would have no time to play with Qinglin in the future.

Every time she thought of this, Jiang Cheng'er felt guilty in her heart.

The ninth day of October.

This day is a good day for Han Baichuan to take himself and Jiang Cheng'er's eight characters to ask someone to show it, Han Baichuan didn't understand it before, and he thought that he would choose an auspicious day for his own marriage. But later, Old Man Han preached to him a lot, so Han Baichuan knew the reason.

"Bai Chuan, this jade pendant was left to me by your grandfather back then, and there is nothing in our family that can be handled, but you still have to give the dowry that should be given, and you can't let others see the joke!" Old Man Han was overjoyed, he couldn't close his mouth with joy, and his eyes were about to reach the back of his head.

Han Baichuan took the jade pendant, and his heart was full of bad taste.

"Dad, you know, Jiang Cheng'er is not such a woman who cares about family background and money." Han Baichuan looked at Old Man Han and said with some embarrassment.

Old Man Han patted Han Baichuan on the shoulder and said: "The family is poor again, but this is a big event for you to marry a wife and have children, naturally it is not sloppy, since it is a woman you like, even if your father goes to smash the pot and sell the iron father, he has to take out this bride price money, and he must be married to the media, and others cannot be asked to look down on our Han family." ”

As soon as he heard this, Han Baichuan fell to his knees with a thud.

"Daddy......" His eyes moistened, thinking of the scene where his father had worked hard to pull him up all these years......

Seeing this scene, Old Man Han was also very uncomfortable in his heart, and he knew that there were some things that he couldn't hide even if he wanted to......

"Actually, Baichuan, there is one more thing that Dad wants to tell you, but I hope you don't blame Daddy. You are not your father's own child, I took you home when you were still an infant, and I asked all the mothers who gave birth in the nearby village. It's not that you have a biological mother, I was also happy in my heart at that time, and I don't know who put you still in the snow, not to mention that I am even more happy to be a big fat boy. After that, I stopped looking for it, and I was even more worried, for fear that you would be given back by your biological mother. ……”

Old Man Han choked up as he spoke, and Han Baichuan on the side was also stunned.

In the past, Old Man Han always joked with a smile that Han Baichuan was not his own, but Han Baichuan has always regarded it as a joke and never really taken it seriously.

"This, this is not true, how can I not be your biological child, Dad, you must be lying to me......"

"Bai Chuan, in the future, when you and Jiang Cheng'er get married, you can go out and find your biological father. That's all I have on my mind, and I can look at it even if I'm dead......"

Old Man Han sighed after speaking.

Han Baichuan was heavy-minded, and in the end, under the persuasion of Old Man Han, he first took the bride price to his home to propose marriage.

In this weather, it was biting cold when he went out, and Han Baichuan was not warm in his thin jacket, and when he arrived at Jiang Cheng'er's house, his face was so cold that he turned blue.

Jiang Cheng'er was waiting at home early in the morning.

The Han family did not find a matchmaker, and Jiang Cheng'er also agreed.

After all, if you find a matchmaker, the cost is not low, so Han Baichuan is the only one who comes to propose marriage today.

Qinglin opened the door for Han Baichuan, and stood at the door with great joy and shouted: "Sister, it's my brother-in-law who is here!" ”

Jiang Cheng'er heard Qinglin's words, and her face flushed as she sat in the room making tea.

Han Baichuan brought the bride price into the house, and there was nothing valuable, a pound of pork, a few pounds of white flour, and some red cotton cloth and so on.

Although they are all worthless things, for Han Baichuan, they have already lost their wealth.

"Jiang Cheng'er, would you like to ......" Han Baichuan and Jiang Cheng'er sat opposite each other, and asked with some embarrassment.

Jiang Cheng'er raised her head coldly, she stared at Han Baichuan and asked, "Are you willing, what?" ”

"Will you marry me?"

Han Baichuan's eyes stared at Jiang Cheng'er without blinking.

Suddenly asked by Han Baichuan, Jiang Cheng'er was really a little uncomfortable, and the tea she swallowed just now almost choked out. She coughed dryly.

"I ......"

"How can my sister not want to marry Brother Han, my sister is so happy!" Qinglin covered his mouth and snickered as he spoke.

Jiang Cheng'er on the side glanced at Li Qinglin regardless of his face.

"You know, my family is poor. There is only so much that can be obtained, and this jade pendant, which was handed down by my ancestors, you have worn it. Han Baichuan said, and pulled Jiang Cheng'er's collection over domineeringly, and directly handed over the jade pendant into Jiang Cheng'er's hands.

Jiang Cheng'er's face became even more ruddy.

Such a beautiful scene also lasted for a while, and what Jiang Cheng'er didn't expect was that this time Li Dashan, Wang and others came directly to the door.

"The surname is Han, you took such a little thing to propose? You want to marry my daughter even with such a small thing? As soon as he entered the door, Li Dashan shouted at Han Baichuan and said.

Han Baichuan naturally ignored it, Jiang Cheng'er was furious, put the cup in his hand in front of the table, and got up quickly.

"What are you doing at my house?" Jiang Cheng'er glared angrily at everyone in the Li family.

I saw Li Dashan snort coldly, glanced at Jiang Cheng'er and said, "I'll take a look at what my unmarried son-in-law has taken to propose marriage, what's wrong?" ”

"You rammer, what nonsense are you talking to them. Han Baichuan, if you don't take out ten taels of gold as a dowry, this Jiang Cheng'er, you don't want to marry into the door. Wang stood behind Li Dashan and looked at Jiang Cheng'er and Han Baichuan and said.

Ten taels of gold?

Jiang Cheng'er snorted coldly.

"Why don't you go and grab the money? I didn't think that I could be so valuable to lose money in your mouths all day long? However, even if Brother Han sent a hundred taels of gold today, it has nothing to do with your old Li family, right? After all, now I am not from the old Li family. ”

Jiang Cheng'er held back the anger in her heart.

"That being said, although you are not from our old Li family, you can't repay the kindness of nurturing, right? I asked Han Baichuan to take out this golden ten taels of silver as a reward for your nurturing kindness, isn't it an exaggeration? Li Dashan smiled slyly and blurted out shamelessly.

Before, Jiang Cheng'er never thought that this person from the old Li family would be able to be so brazen.

Li Qinglin clenched his fists tightly, and he glared at Li Dashan angrily, but Qinglin didn't have a seizure for a long time, because he was also entangled.

Li Dashan is his father after all.

Jiang Cheng'er saw that everyone up and down the old Li family had arrived, and her heart trembled, if it weren't for the fact that she didn't have so many silver taels in her hands, if she really had it, she would really give it to the old Li family today, at least so that Han Baichuan would not be embarrassed.

"How much dowry to give, that is also up to Jiang Cheng'er to decide."

"She has the final say? She said it doesn't count! Li Dashan replied categorically.
