Chapter 0125: Preparing for the Engagement

The next morning, Liu Minghui took Li Lin to visit the courtyard of the Zhou family next door, and the Zhou family and his wife warmly received the brothers.

The courtyard is a courtyard with houses on all sides, 400 square meters is about equal to 6 points of land, and the large courtyard of Li Lin's house is only half an acre.

After visiting, there is a deep feeling of the courtyard, the courtyard house is really good, the fly in the ointment is that the Zhou family and his wife do not agree to pay in installments.

After some negotiations, the buyer and the seller reached an agreement, and the buyer paid a deposit of 50,000 yuan and paid another 750,000 yuan before October 1, 1997.

If the buyer fails to pay the balance within the time limit, the agreement will be automatically terminated, and the seller will not refund the deposit of 50,000 yuan paid by the buyer.

During the term of the agreement, the seller cannot resell the courtyard house to another person, nor can it increase the price for any reason, and the seller dismisses all tenants in the courtyard after the transaction is concluded.

Li Lin doesn't like to live under the eaves of other people's houses, nor does he like others to live in his own homes, in his opinion, home is his secret garden.

After signing the agreement and paying the deposit, Li Lin said goodbye to the Liu family and drove back to Zhengcheng, Henan Province with the purchase agreement.

This trip to the capital received a lot of goods, and his marriage with Liu Pandi was supported by the Liu family except for Liu Kaiguo.

Liu Kaiguo's current attitude is still neither for nor against, don't be in my house when you get engaged, and I won't be present when you get married.

The absence of the most beloved grandfather at the wedding site will make Liu Pandi uncomfortable.

Li Lin doesn't care about other people's attitudes, but he cares about his fiancΓ©e's feelings, because she has suffered a lot with Li Lin in her previous life.

Liu Kaiguo gave a small exam question to complete the order of 50,000 books that the Lanxian Library is about to open for public bidding.

Before, Li Lin only regarded it as a dispensable icing on the cake, but now he must do his best to do his best.

On the way back to Zhengcheng, she always considered the issue of orders, and she split the whole process into winning bids, purchasing, delivering and collecting payments.

If it is not possible to follow the normal process of bidding, bidding, and winning the bid, Li Lin can only choose to overtake in the corner.

First of all, it is necessary to maintain a good friendship with Qu Jianjian, the director of the Lan County Library, and then make friends with the leaders of the Cultural Bureau through him.

Then inquire about the news of collecting book orders, and it is best to get the specific data of book orders from Qu Jianshe in advance.

How to contact Qu Construction?

You can't make a phone call rashly, you can't come to the door rashly, you must find a legitimate opportunity and occasion.

Li Lin instantly thought of paying attention, and used his mobile phone to call Qu Construction Office.

A few seconds later, the phone was connected, and Qu Jianshe said with a smile: "Boss Li, a busy man, finally remembered to call me." ”

Li Lin also smiled and said: "Uncle Qu is out of my embarrassment again, I recently went to the capital to meet my fiancΓ©e's parents, and I have been looking for you to catch up with the old but I don't have time. ”

Qu Jianshe said: "This is a good thing, everything is going well, right?" ”

Li Lin said: "On the tenth day of the lunar month, an engagement banquet was held in Yipinju, Lan County, and I don't know if I can ask you to deign to be a witness." ”

Qu Jianshe immediately said: "It's an honor, is it the 18th day of the solar calendar on the tenth day of the lunar calendar?" ”

Li Lin said: "Yes, then thank you Curator Qu for your face." ”

The two chatted a few words and hung up the phone, Li Lin wanted to call a friend in the wedding photography shop but found that the mobile phone had no signal.

Three days later, he returned to Zhengcheng to share the news of the engagement with the brothers, and then called the village party secretary and asked him to inform his parents to call back.

In the afternoon, when Liu Pandi returned home from school, she cried with joy when she had already received the news, and she snuggled in Li Lin's arms and couldn't let go.

It has been half a year since the two met and dating, and they usually face pressure from all sides when they get together less and leave more, and now they can finally walk together.

Li Lin asked, "Have you ever regretted being with me?" ”

Liu Pandi said matter-of-factly: "It doesn't seem to be yet." ”

Li Lin asked, "Under what circumstances would you regret it?" ”

Liu Pandi grinned: "I am a tendon, and I guess I will never regret it." ”

Li Lin relaxed and accompanied her to reminisce about the past, and then called a friend at the Lanxian wedding shop.

suddenly received a call from her mother-in-law, so she handed her mobile phone to Pandi and asked the mother and daughter to whisper.

When I returned to the living room, I found the old girl smirking, so I walked over and asked her, "What's the smirk?" ”

Li Mu said: "I'm afraid you won't believe it, yesterday I dreamed that you and your sister-in-law had twins, which woke me up laughing." ”

Li Lin pointed to her bedroom door and said, "I'm afraid you won't believe it, if you can't get into the top five in the grade in the midterm exam, your pocket money will be halved in the future." ”

"Obey the order, sir, don't dare to disturb you and your sister-in-law having twins!" Li Mule ran back to the room, and said in his heart I am not afraid that you will deduct my pocket money, anyway, my sister-in-law will make it up to me.

Li Lin returned to the bedroom and said, "Why don't you talk more with our mother?" ”

Liu Pandi shook her mobile phone and said, "I'm reluctant, the phone bill is expensive." I hung up the phone in 3 minutes and 58 seconds, and the telecom company could only deduct my money for 3 minutes. ”

Li Lin was amused by her, this daughter-in-law is really good at living a careful life, and she actually looked at her watch while making a phone call.

The mobile phone rang, Li Lin answered the phone, it was his parents calling, Li Lin told them the engagement date and asked them to prepare in advance.

After hanging up the phone, Pandi shook her wrist and said, "The talk time is 2 minutes and 59 seconds, it seems that our mother is better at living than me." ”

"Of course." Li Lin opened his arms and waited for the warm jade to be full, and said softly: "She has worked hard to pull the three of us brothers and sisters, and she will definitely not work if she is not careful." ”

Liu Pandi turned her head to look at the curtains and whispered, "Lin, the curtains are up, the door is locked, and the lights are on!" ”

"I get it too!" Li Lin was about to move, and the phone rang again.

It was Jiang Wenbin, who ran a wedding shop, and he said on the phone: "I'm sorry Brother Lin, there was no one at home just now." ”

Li Lin said: "On the tenth day of the lunar month, Panpan and I got engaged in Yipinju in Lan County, please help me plan the engagement event." ”

"Congratulations!" Jiang Wenbin said with a smile: "But the custom in our county is to get engaged and simple, are you sure to do it?" ”

The engagement ceremony is very simple in Lan County, the man goes to the woman's house with the gift and gives the engagement money to the woman Liu to finish.

You don't need to invite friends to attend, you don't need any witnesses, and you don't need to buy a diamond ring.

Jiang Wenbin is interesting enough, and he would rather not earn this money than persuade his brother to save.

However, Li Lin needs ceremonies and witnesses, and he also needs to pamper and respect his fiancΓ©e.

He smiled and said: "I will contribute 10,000 yuan to you to give me the grandest engagement banquet in Lan County since the founding of the People's Republic of China." ”

Jiang Wenbin whispered for a few seconds: "The average salary in our county is only 200 yuan, and you want to spend four years of ordinary people's salary to get engaged?" Do you think it's worth it? ”

Li Lin said: "I think it's worth it, and it's worth spending more money for my lover." ”

Jiang Wenbin gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! As long as you feel the value, I promise to make it beautiful for you. ”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Pandiqi held Li Lin's face with both hands, shook his head and said, "I don't think it's worth it, it's just a simple ceremony, don't waste money." ”

Li Lin said: "I am the head of the family, and I have the final say. ”

Liu Pandi pouted and said, "Then I want it twice!" ”

After two times, Liu Pandi fell asleep deeply, and Li Lin took her shoulders to look at the ceiling.

In fact, the ceremony is not only a ceremony, but also a negotiation ground for library orders.
