Xiao Jianjun was just stunned for a moment, then he still poured liquor for the royal father very politely, and smiled and beckoned them to eat more.

After being full of wine and food, Xiao Hong and Xiao Mengqiu got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

After arriving at the kitchen, Xiao Mengqiu lowered his voice and looked unhappy: "I don't like the Wang family, especially that Wang Hui, his eyes are looking at our bodies, and he is obscene to death." ”

To be honest, Xiao Hong doesn't like the Wang family either, but she is an outsider and won't say anything about it, so she can only say perfunctorily: "It's okay, they got married and went out to live, and there weren't many times when you saw each other." ”

The uncle's house has three bedrooms and one living room, one room must be the uncle and the aunt's house, and the other room is the one where Xiao Haodong and Xiao Haonan live together.

Because only the largest room can fit two beds.

Another small room is now where Xiao Mengqiu lives.

So don't look at it as a one-bedroom and three-living room, but it's a bit crowded for a family to live in.

Whoever their brother is married, a new house will have to be found.

And Xiao Haodong is now an intern doctor, and he has not been able to get a separate room yet.

After greeting in the living room, the royal father also spoke: "My family Wang Ying and your family Haonan have also been together for more than half a year, why don't we settle for them?" ”

Sun Mingzhu glanced at the shy Wang Ying, thinking that she was a primary school teacher and a civil servant, even if the Wang family had a little problem, she would not turn her face because of this.

She smiled: "That's great, Wang Ying has a watch and a bicycle, and we will give eight hundred and eighty-eight as a dowry, ask for good luck, and buy a refrigerator and tape recorder, do you think it's okay?" ”

After the engagement here, the man and the woman can go and register their marriage.

When they are engaged, they go to the woman's house for a meal at noon, and have dinner at the man's relatives, so that the unmarried couple can live together, and then find a good day to get married.

Now that you are married, the bride price money can be left in the woman's house, but the woman will accompany the man to buy the household appliances.

In addition, the woman's family will also marry some quilts, blankets, dishes, chopsticks, electrical appliances or something according to the economic conditions of their family.

When I got married in the seventies and eighties, I wanted three turns and one ring.

However, in the past two years, the provincial capital has hired popular televisions, washing machines, refrigerators and tape recorders, and air conditioners.

Of course, these electrical appliances are expensive now, and most families only choose one or two appliances that they don't have at home.

Of course, Sun Mingzhu said this, there is room for it, if the woman's family wants to add two gold, they can also grit their teeth and buy it.

But if you can save a little, it would be great.

The royal father seemed to be a very kind person, so he just smiled and nodded: "Electrical appliances and gold utensils are all things outside the body, it doesn't matter if you don't use them, anyway, the little couple can save their own money to buy them slowly in the future." ”

The living room and kitchen are so close that what they say, can be heard in the kitchen.

Xiao Hong was a little surprised when she heard it, but she didn't expect the Wang family to be quite reasonable.

The queen mother also spoke: "Wang Ying's school welfare is good, if she gets married, we can get a marriage room if we ask someone to go through the relationship." ”

This is indeed good news, and the smile on Sun Mingzhu's face is much more enthusiastic: "You still have a lot of ways." ”

My two sons are very good, and the only bad thing is that the house is a little crowded.

Their husbands and wives were dying of sorrow for this.

But now it is not easy to buy a house, and now the housing prices in the provincial capital are expensive, and if you want to buy a three-bedroom house like your own, you will have to pay about 20,000 yuan now.

When the unit building was first built, as a benefit to these small leaders, their unit allowed them to buy the house they lived in, and it also gave them a discount, spending about 10,000 yuan.

It's not easy to buy a house now, the housing prices in the provincial capital have risen rapidly in the past two years, and now if you want to buy a three-bedroom house like your own, you have to get about 20,000 yuan.

But the 10,000 yuan I bought before I bought a house spent all the money saved by the family, and I still owed some foreign debts.

Of course, the foreign debt must have been paid off a long time ago, and the family does not have much savings.

Xiao Jianjun's salary is more than 260 per month, and Sun Mingzhu is a nurse, only more than 160 a month.

Xiao Haodong is still an intern doctor, and he has only been more than 160 months old.

Xiao Haonan sells tickets and works easily, but his salary is only 170 yuan a month.

The brothers hand in a hundred a month, and they themselves spend a little and save a little.

Speaking of which, the salary plus bonus of a family is also 10,000 yuan.

But there is still Xiao Mengqiu still studying at the medical university, and the tuition fee plus pocket money is about 800 a year.

and the family's expenses are at least about 3,000, not including the exchanges between relatives and friends.

Anyway, they have only saved 5,000 yuan in the past two years, which is only enough to marry a daughter-in-law.

Now Wang Ying's family is not very demanding, if it becomes a place to live, then Xiao Haodong can find a girlfriend and marry to live at home.

This makes it easier to find a partner.

Therefore, Sun Mingzhu is thinking about getting engaged now, and after a while, let the boss find a suitable engagement, and the brothers can get married by the end of the year.

Maybe I'll be able to be a grandmother next year.

"We have one condition, though." The queen mother looked at her son helplessly: "My family Wang Hui didn't graduate from high school, and it's not easy to find a job now, why don't you give Haonan's job to my family Wang Huicheng?" ”

Hearing this, Sun Mingzhu couldn't laugh anymore.

At present, the salary in the provincial capital is mostly 15 to 400.

Four hundred is considered a rare high salary, which is the salary of some leaders and senior technicians.

Xiao Haonan is less than two hundred now, but his work is easy, his working hours are short, and his benefits are good.

The most important thing is that when Xiao Haonan retires in the future, he will be able to receive a retirement salary every month.

Now the conditions for recruiting people in the Railway Bureau are getting higher and higher, if Xiao Haonan gives up his job, even if Xiao Jianjun is also a small leader of the Railway Bureau, he is not too sure that he can find such a good job for his son.

Xiao Jianjun also hesitated for a moment before speaking: "It's not too long, I'll find a chance to find Wang Hui a job as a conductor?" ”

Wang Hui refused: "That's not good, I get motion sickness, so I don't want to be a conductor." ”

Then he said naturally: "You can let your brother-in-law be a conductor, and I will take over my brother-in-law's work." ”

"Or if you retire, let your brother-in-law take your place."

Xiao Mengqiu, who was in the kitchen, took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and whispered: "He is the ancestor of my family, and even my father can arrange it clearly." ”

After saying that, he threw the rag into the sink and walked out with a black face.

Xiao Hong hurriedly grabbed her and whispered, "There are uncles and aunts here, don't worry." ”

On such occasions, it is not their turn to speak.

Seeing that they didn't agree, the royal father outside also smiled and said: "This matter really makes you a little embarrassed, but we can give you another 2,000 yuan without a bride price, can you say okay?" ”
