Chapter 238: Dowry
The box is about the same size as the one given to her by her aunt, there is an old wrench in it, and a very simple jade pendant, a gold bracelet inlaid with emeralds, a pair of emerald earrings, and an emerald gold necklace, which should be a set, a few big coins, some copper coins, and a house deed is the one where the Xue family lives in it, as well as two gold bars, a few big black ten, five thousand yuan.
"Dad, didn't you give me all the money for our family? How" and so much more.
"This is what your mother and I saved for you alone, and every year we saved a little bit, and I saved you so much money from before. Originally, I wanted to buy you a house, and your mother and I used the rest for the elderly, who knows...... Plans can't keep up with the changes. You have all these things, you have more money, and you have confidence in your mother's family."
"Dad, I've already spent the 10,000 yuan, I won't take the 5,000 yuan, you keep it on your body, keep it for later."
"Dad just gave out a bonus, more than 1,000, these dads can't spend it in a year, besides, Dad's salary is not low in the future, and after a year, I will save more than you."
Lu Jingqiu's eyes suddenly turned red: "Other people's families can still make some money by marrying their daughters, you are good, I can't wait to marry the whole family."
Lu Xianrun patted her proudly and said with a smile: "Your father has this ability and is willing to give my daughter, isn't that moving?"
"Yes."
In the end, Lu Jingqiu took her dowry upstairs, and when she got upstairs, she found that there was a red dress on the bed.
The flannel kind, with a white stand-up collar and white cuffs, is still a V-neck.
I guess you can only buy this kind of clothes at the Friendship Store.
Lu Jingqiu happily tried it on, it fit very well, and I don't know how Jiang Nanzhou grasped it.
Looking at his empty neck in the mirror, Lu Jingqiu rummaged through his dowry box and matched the set of gold earrings inlaid with road gems and the emerald gold necklace.
It's very much in the style of this era.
At night, Lu Jingqiu had insomnia, some excitement and some anticipation, resulting in waking up until ten o'clock the next day.
At this time, the aunt was already preparing things below to receive the guests who came to give the wedding.
Many of them were aunts in the compound, some sent red cloths, some sent mirrors, the kind of mirrors hung on the wall, and also sent soap, enamel jars, pillow towels, backs, bed sheets, and hot water kettles.
Although their Lu family has no relatives, Dad has a lot of comrades-in-arms.
In the morning, there were many receptions, and in the afternoon, there was an endless stream of people.
Aunt Gao took the package that Gao Qing mailed her, and Aunt Liu, Grandma Wang, and Aunt Cuihua tidied up the room for her, mainly to lay out the wedding bed, and she didn't know much about some customs.
She listened carefully to what the adults said.
At about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Jingqiu went out and picked up a few friends, Luo Xinyue, He Yu, Chen Qingru.
Lu Jingqiu originally asked Xue Jiannian to come over, but Xue Jianian said that she was married, so it was not good to "fool around" with them now.
Prepare to come early tomorrow morning.
In order to give them a few little sisters, their father also went to the army.
Only Aunt Xiao and Aunt Liu have a few elders to help with some things.
In the evening, Lu Jingqiu made a stew to entertain them.
A few people didn't have much heart to eat, so they simply ate a few bites, and then pulled Lu Jingqiu upstairs to see her dress.
Luo Xinyue looked at the long red dress that was hanging, and her eyes were full of envy: "This skirt is too good-looking, isn't it, your Jiang Nanzhou prepared it for you?"
"Well, I still don't know where he bought it, it should be at the Friendship Store."
He Yu nodded and said, "Yes, only the Friendship Store can buy such beautiful clothes."
Chen Qingru carefully touched the material and said: "This material is really thick, and the color is also good-looking, but now that marriage is popular like this, when I was in the New Year, I also saw a bride wearing that kind of skirt, with a red suit on it, which is beautiful."
Luo Xinyue said, "I'm in the mall
I fell in love with a red skirt, and now when I look at Jingqiu, I don't think it's good again."
Lu Jingqiu smiled, "When you get married, the weather will be warmer, and you can wear a red gauze dress." In fact, in two years, wedding dresses will be popular, purple, red, and white.
Luo Xinyue said, "The red gauze skirt? We don't seem to have anything to buy here."
He Yu said: "We have it there, and during the Chinese New Year, I saw an old tailor hanging one in his shop, and I curiously stepped forward to touch it, and she said that it was designed by herself. It's a gauze skirt, I don't know if it's the kind Jingqiu said."
Luo Xinyue curiously asked what she had, and as soon as the girl talked about beauty, she couldn't stop.
Lu Jingqiu went to get some fruit for them, and at about seven o'clock in the evening, my aunt came up and told them that Grandma Wang would come to comb her hair tomorrow, and a few bridesmaids needed to take something to the new house.
They all explained to them one by one before leaving.
When several people were dividing the work, Lu Jingqiu went to take a shower, and when she came back, she had to put on a wedding dress and try it out.
Lu Jingqiu had no choice but to put it on for them to see, a long red dress looked particularly attractive in the dim light.
Bringing emerald jewelry is really the icing on the cake.
Chen Qingru said: "You don't have to make your hair too complicated, just coil it up, Jingqiu, do you have a hairpin, if you have a hairpin, just insert a hairpin, and paint a big red lip, not to mention how beautiful."
Lu Jingqiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "There really isn't a hairpin." She thought of the white jade and red agate head, but it was too high-profile.
Luo Xinyue said, "Just bring a big red flower, Jingqiu, do you have a red yarn at home." I'll make one for you."
"Yes." Lu Jingqiu took out a red scarf from the cabinet and said, "This is my mother's before, I wanted to do this, in fact, my uncle's husband got the brooch of the bride and groom, and my aunt said that it would be okay to tie a red head rope."
Lu Jingqiu also prepared a red head rope during the New Year, and prepared a flower.
Lu Jingqiu said, pulled her mother's red scarf directly with a leather band, and put it on the top of her head, the front one just blocked the eyes a little, and the back one hung down on her shoulders.
In this way, it directly changed its appearance, and several people said that this method was good.
Lu Jingqiu pursed her lips and smiled, this is what she learned from later generations.
Chen Qingru said: "Dress up like this tomorrow, wearing red leather shoes, it's so beautiful, believe it or not, if other female comrades see it, they will definitely imitate your dress."
He Yu nodded: "I found that when I get married in the future, it may not be a tunic or a green military uniform, and lesbians should be like this when they get married." Xinyue, I'll call you when you go back to school and ask about that gauze skirt."
Luo Xinyue said, "Okay, thank you so much."
"Don't, I can't stand your enthusiasm the most."
"Haha."
