Weng and his son-in-law chatted happily, and there was an active atmosphere in the middle, and the atmosphere in the living room was harmonious.

No matter how good the greetings are, they must get to the point.

"It stands to reason that you should go through the process first, propose marriage first and then get married, you hide it from your family, register first, cut it first and then play, this can't be said anywhere." Dad Lin said.

"Yes, this is a son-in-law, right. Concealed the registration at home and didn't tell his parents-in-law, it was the son-in-law who did something wrong. Zhao Guangyuan has a good attitude and admits his mistakes.

"Registration is for convenience, not for your own sake. Originally, I wanted to visit my parents-in-law, but because I was busy all the time and couldn't get away from the field, it has been delayed until now, and the son-in-law has compensated my parents-in-law. Zhao Guangyuan got up and saluted Lin's father and Lin's mother.

Father Lin and Mother Lin were appeased, and the unhappiness in their hearts also went a lot.

"And what are you going to do this time?"

"This time I plan to go to the door according to the customs here, and today the son-in-law is officially coming to the door to ask for relatives, my parents are gone, and my relatives are also abroad, so I don't plan to make a big deal......

"Not going to make a big deal?" Mother Lin was stunned, if she didn't do wine, she couldn't accept this gift.

Mother Lin thought about Zhao Guangyuan's conditions, the people she knew were afraid that they would either be rich or expensive, and would they still be afraid that they would not be able to receive the gift money?

And Lin Wei has also been sick for so long, so he just took advantage of a happy event to go to bad luck. Just introduced Zhao Guangyuan to his relatives, so that he could meet them on the road later, when their family was a plague god, they thought they were going to borrow money from them, and they pretended not to know each other when they saw them on the road.

She raised Lin Zhaoxia, Lin Zhaoxia was lucky to find a rich man, she just took the opportunity to shake, saving her relatives from showing off their children to her from time to time, and what good job she found, how much salary, how her boyfriend was, who immigrated again, and how to take the family abroad.

Not enough to add to the blockage.

Previously, they took Lin Yanran back, but Yanran didn't read the book well, and when she came back, she reluctantly sent her to a junior college because she revisited it, which was not comparable to the children of her relatives who studied in aristocratic schools and were sent abroad to study.

And Yanran didn't find a good job after graduation, so she stayed at home and was gossiped about by her relatives. I thought that Lin Zhaoxia would be a little more productive, but I didn't expect that I couldn't do my job, and I was idle at home.

She didn't have a face when she went out.

Now that Lin Zhaoxia finally found a good man, and when it was time to make a big show, she happened to invite all her relatives.

Doesn't it usually say how the family is doing, how the children are doing, then the gift money is a little bigger, otherwise it won't be a slap in the face?

But now these two say they won't have a wedding?

"Yes, Mom and Dad, we're not going to do it. At present, the first is to rectify the extravagant atmosphere and not to do big things, and the second is that young people are afraid of trouble and prefer to travel and get married. Besides, he doesn't have any relatives or friends, so we don't plan to do it. ”

The concept of marriage and love in an era and the era of big operations have passed, and now young people just want to live their lives behind closed doors. Besides, if you receive the gift money, don't you want to pay it back?

It's all about things. And if someone gives you a thousand, you have to pay back one thousand two, one thousand five, otherwise you won't be sensible.

Today's young people are troubled to deal with this kind of human sophistication.

Moreover, Zhao Guangyuan really doesn't have any friends to invite here. Lin Zhaoxia only has a few good classmates and friends, just invite these people to eat in private, there is no need to have any weddings, the whole pile of ceremonies, tired of himself.

And the relatives on Lin's father and Lin's mother's side have not been in contact with each other for the past two years, even if they make a post, they are reluctant to come, and besides, this kind of showy thing is still left to Lin Yanran, and when the time comes, Lin's father and Lin's mother can make a big deal.

She didn't want to.

Mother Lin disagreed, she had to do it big, but Lin Zhaoxia just didn't open her mouth. "Guangyuan, that's what you mean?"

Zhao Guangyuan glanced at Lin Zhaoxia and nodded, "Yes, father-in-law and mother-in-law, I mean the same thing." I have a lot of things to do, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of it this year. If there are relatives on the parents-in-law's side who must be invited, while we are here for the past two days, we will just hold an engagement banquet, including two or three private rooms, and three or four tables are enough. ”

Mother Lin looked at Zhao Guangyuan and Lin Zhaoxia back and forth, her brows furrowed.

It seems that these two people are afraid that they have discussed it. Since Zhaoxia's child moved his hukou, does he plan to have any contact with Yu Hang?

The brow is furrowed enough to kill a fly. The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense, and he was so frightened that he shrank up and didn't dare to speak.

Mother Lin wanted to say it again, but she was secretly pulled by Father Lin.

"If you don't do it, you won't do it. But the family has also received some help from relatives in the past two years, and your mother and I want to take this opportunity to express our gratitude and introduce Guangyuan to everyone. ”

Lin Zhaoxia pinched her index finger with her thumb, she didn't want to hold a wedding, and she didn't even want to hold the engagement banquet that Guangyuan said was a good relative. How do you want to introduce it? She didn't want others to look at her strangely.

Zhao Guangyuan stretched out his hand and covered her palm, Lin Zhaoxia let out a sigh, and released his thumb from his index finger.

"Just according to what Guangyuan said, invite some close relatives to attend the engagement banquet tomorrow." Dad Lin slapped the board.

Mother Lin couldn't do it, so she was silent and looked at the things that Zhao Guangyuan brought.

Zhao Guangyuan got up and brought the engagement gift to the coffee table to make an introduction, according to the engagement customs of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the engagement brought six kinds of gifts, fish, meat, sugar, tobacco, wine, tea, the same, as well as hardware and jewelry, and the bride price.

The six gifts are wrapped in red paper in the middle, and the hardware and jewelry are also packed in red boxes.

Lin Zhaoxia remembered that the Lin family raised her and wanted to give 288,000, but Zhao Guangyuan wanted to give more, His Royal Highness, thinking about his identity, gave less, but he couldn't save face, Lin Zhaoxia couldn't resist him, so he decided to give 388,000.

used red paper to circle in the middle of a stack of hundred-yuan bills, and when it was laid out, half of the table was placed on the table, and sure enough, Mother Lin was very satisfied with this number.

"Guangyuan has a heart."

In this way, the engagement process is over.

Next, Lin's father and Lin mother informed their close relatives to have a banquet tomorrow, and Lin Zhaoxia and Zhao Guangyuan called to book a private room. Fortunately, this season is not the peak period for marriage, and it is still easy to book a few private rooms.

Soon book a place for tomorrow's feast.

After having a meal at Lin's house, the family couldn't live in it, so Lin Zhaoxia took Zhao Guangyuan and Changzhi to a hotel near Lin's house.

After the three of them left, Mother Lin packed up the things Lin Zhaoxia and they brought, and looked at them one by one, feeling satisfied.

"I thought he had no father or mother, and he didn't understand these marriage customs, but I didn't expect it to be quite open." Dad Lin's expression was relaxed, and he was very satisfied with this son-in-law.

Marry him, Xia Xia will not suffer in the future, and the family can still be taken care of by him.

Mother Lin paused, not wanting to see Father Lin's satisfied attitude towards Zhao Guangyuan.

"Don't buy you off with these dowries, do you? They didn't have us in their hearts, and if I hadn't made a special trip, they would have wanted to hide it. Mother Lin put away the look of satisfaction on her face and put away the dowry.

Looking at the hardware in the jewelry box on the table, he took it out and touched it the same, it stands to reason that these are the dowry gifts given by his son-in-law, and the hardware is to be returned with the dowry, but Mother Lin wants to leave them to Lin Yanran.

Thinking that Lin Yanran was about to be sent to exchange for a bride price before the legal marriage age at that time, her heart hurt again, "Yanran is in the mountains, she can exchange it for 188,000, what kind of place is this!" "It's not a lot to give these dowries.

Thinking about Lin Yanran again, the other party hadn't given me hardware at that time, and she was even more distressed.

Thinking that Lin Zhaoxia is now living in a mansion and driving a luxury car, these hardware should not be looked down upon. And this is a dowry, and it must be accompanied as a dowry. There is no psychological burden on yourself to deduct the hardware.

On the other side, Lin Zhaoxia took Changzhi and Lin Zhaoxia to have a good walk in Yuhang, and the three of them returned to the hotel.

waited until he went to take a bath, and Zhao Guangyuan also talked about hardware.

"That hardware, I'm afraid my mother won't marry me." Moreover, Zhao Guangyuan gave too much dowry, and there was no room at all, and Mother Lin would still find this son-in-law to reach out in the future.

After all, Dad Lin is still sick, and there will be no shortage of places to pay in the future. Lin Zhaoxia was afraid that he would raise their appetite.

Zhao Guangyuan didn't care, he held Lin Zhaoxia in his arms, his chin against her black hair, "Don't worry, there is still a husband, leave these things to the husband." "He didn't think that the Lin family could accompany Xia Er back.

It can be regarded as returning this grace for Xia Er.

"It's going to be a hassle later."

"Don't be afraid. There I am. ”

Well, you just have to know it. Lin Zhaoxia sighed.

At noon the next day, Lin Zhaoxia drove Zhao Guangyuan and Changzhi, and Lin's father and Lin's mother to the set location early, which was a very famous local garden restaurant, and made private dishes very well, although it was a weekend, but because it was in the suburbs, and they set it at noon, they were lucky to get the location.

Three tables were booked, and each private room was a large round table that could seat 12 people, and the partition in the middle room was pushed open, and the three private rooms were combined into one.

Dad Lin has been sick for so long, he hasn't come out to eat for a long time, maybe yesterday his son-in-law came to the door to get married, and he was satisfied with everything, today he was dressed new, and he greeted his relatives at the door of the hotel with Lin Ma with a smile.

"Dad, you're not in good health, why don't you sit inside and wait?" Lin Zhaoxia wanted to help him in and wait, but he was not happy. It's not that the air outside is good, and it's good to bask in the sun.

Lin Zhaoxia also went with him.

At the point, the relatives arrived one after another, although over the years, Lin Ma borrowed from the relatives, but then they were all slowly returned, and yesterday Lin Dad and Lin Ma invited close relatives, but they all came.

"Zhaoxia is all engaged? Not long after graduation, right? My monkey is still studying in Australia. ”

The voice is Lin's mother's cousin, who is married to a husband in Wenshi, her mother-in-law is rich, and she also has a daughter who is the same age as Lin Zhaoxia, and is now a graduate student in Australia.

"Hello Auntie. I haven't seen you for a long time, and I look young again. I'm not as good as my cousin. Lin Zhaoxia smiled faintly at her and said hello.

She doesn't have a good impression of this aunt, she is used to looking at people with her nostrils, her family conditions are good, but when she was a child, Lin Zhaoxia went to her house with Lin's mother to pay New Year's greetings, and the red envelopes she gave were always one hundred, very stingy, and fifty was also given.

Wen City's New Year's Bag for the child is fifty hundred, all of which are thousands.

The little Lin Zhaoxia knew that people looked down on her, she was just an adopted daughter, and she was not a relative.

Mother Lin knew that she gave few red envelopes, and she was angry with her, but her mother-in-law was rich, so it was not easy to offend her. has been showing off Lin Zhaoxia's grades in front of her, who made Aunt Lu's daughter's grades poor.

But Aunt Lu's daughter didn't take the college entrance examination, so she was sent abroad.

Aunt Lu exchanged a few words with Lin Zhaoxia, and then moved her eyes to Zhao Guangyuan, hey, where did Lin Zhaoxia go to the shit luck, she picked up such an extraordinary man, she thought it was an old man.

"This is my nephew and son-in-law? Oops, it's so good-looking, what are you doing? Home in Haishi? ”

"Hello Auntie. Please introduce it to my aunt later. Zhao Guangyuan smiled unabated. Holding Changzhi to stand at the door, standing tall and tall.

Many people looked at Changzhi with a vague gaze. I was a little scared when I watched it. Zhao Guangyuan held him tightly. Smile back at everyone.

There were still one or two guests who didn't come, and Dad Lin's legs were sore, so Mother Lin helped him into the hotel, leaving Lin Zhaoxia and the three of them outside.

In the box, all the relatives were asking Lin's father and Lin's mother about Zhao Guangyuan's situation, and how long he was.

Yesterday they received a phone call only to know that this adopted daughter was going to be engaged, and invited them to have an engagement banquet, but they didn't say that they had such a big son!

I thought Lin Zhaoxia was a stepmother, but I didn't expect it to be my own!

The crowd was stunned. They all pulled Lin's father and Lin's mother to ask......

"So it was she who gave birth to the child the year she disappeared? She really doesn't remember that year? "Why are you so unbelieving?

At that time, Lin Zhaoxia disappeared, and Lin's father and Lin's mother also asked relatives to help find her, thinking that she had found her biological parents and went home. Didn't you expect to give birth to a son for a man?

"What's the situation with this son-in-law? Is there really no father and mother, and there is no elder in the family who is in charge? ”

"Why not, but people are abroad, and it's not enough to toss when they come back. Nowadays, young people think differently than we do, they don't want to have weddings, they don't even want to have wedding banquets. Mother Lin didn't want people to underestimate the family, so she stalked her neck and defended.

Aunt Lu pulled Mother Lin and asked Zhao Guangyuan what the six gifts were given, and how much the bride price was given.

"It's only three hundred and eighty-eight?"

Father Lin's relatives next to him frowned when they saw Aunt Lu's disdainful face, "Three hundred and eighty-eight thousand is not much, the dowry here is only more than ten or two hundred thousand, the woman will accompany a wedding car, and the man will prepare the wedding room, and the dowry will be this number." ”

It may be that the son-in-law saw that Lin Wei was sick, so he gave more, and the young couple didn't plan to have a wedding, and they probably didn't plan to accept the dowry. It is also considerate of the situation at home. Lin's father's relatives were satisfied with Zhao Guangyuan's handling of things.

Aunt Lu disagreed, "Our side of 188,000 is low, 380,000 is only average, my eldest sister married a daughter, and the other party gave 1.08 million, the wedding room is also new, four bedrooms and two living rooms, and I also gave my mother's family a car of more than 500,000 yuan." ”

"That's your Wen City. We're not selling our daughters here. And there are many dowry gifts, and there are also many dowries. "In Lin Wei's case, unless the bride money is returned, what can he marry?

Aunt Lu didn't plan to worry about the rural relatives on Dad Lin's side, so she only pulled Mother Lin and asked quietly, "Didn't you say before that you wanted me to help find one for Zhaoxia in Wen City?" ”

Of course, Aunt Lu understands her cousin's thoughts, she wants her to help find one in Wen City, it doesn't matter if she is old, it doesn't matter if she is divorced or widowed, as long as she is not too old, she wants to take the bride price to Lin Yanran to change a house.

"I won't go back with these dowries, her father has to see a doctor and take medicine when her father is sick, and the money should be used as a down payment for Yanran."

"Ouch, my sister, what kind of down payment is this, do you want to buy Yanran an old shabby? And just like that, without a stable flow, bank loans can't be done. Do you help repay the loan every month or Lin Wei help repay it? ”

Aunt Lin hates that iron does not become steel, "Since he got people a few years ago, and his son was born, the fault came first, and he didn't come to the door all these years, and he didn't let go of a fart, you are still polite to him!" ”

gave Lin's mother a move, "Didn't you say that his family conditions were good, and his parents left money for him?" You have raised Zhaoxia for so many years, how can you leave nothing. Of course, you want a house, and you need a down payment! ”

I got chilblains again, and I was afraid of winter
