All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 201. Dowry and the Four Great Pieces
Yue Guangping was very satisfied with Su Tiangang, his eldest son-in-law, so naturally he would not embarrass him in the marriage, and said happily:

"No matter how many gifts your family offers, they will definitely be brought back, so I don't have any requirements in this regard, just follow the general standard."

Yue Guangping said this very generously, but after Su Tiangang heard it, shame appeared on his face.

Of course, Yue Guangping noticed the change in Su Tiangang's expression. He frowned and asked, "What do your parents mean?"

"According to my parents, I originally planned to offer a gift money of 88. If our family has requirements in this regard, a gift money of 99 can also be considered.

But my elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law disagreed, both felt that it was too much.

When the second sister-in-law got married, the gift money from our family was 66, so they meant to follow this standard. "

After saying these words, Su Tiangang felt quite shameless, and quickly added:

"I've been a soldier all these years, and I have saved a little bit, but the allowance for our soldiers is not high, and I only saved 270 yuan.

The gift money from the family is too little, and I can add a little more, so that it will look better, and it will not make Xiangmei lose face. "

"What's the matter with you paying for it yourself, we don't need to slap a swollen face to pretend to be fat.

Whatever gift money your family gives, that's how much, you don't have to add it yourself.

You are a good boy, and I have no problem with you, but it is too stingy for your family to do things like this. "

Wang Liying was very angry, suppressed her anger, and continued:
"The dowry gift of 66 yuan, which year's old calendar is that?

Your second sister-in-law has been married for six or seven years, and getting married now is no longer the standard she was at that time.

As long as it is not particularly difficult, the minimum is 88, and people with a little bit of face will give 99.

You go back and ask them to inquire about it. There are quite a few people who got married in the past six months. Which family gave the gift of 66? "

Seeing his mother-in-law getting angry, Su Tiangang felt very uneasy, "After I go back, I will definitely convey your and uncle's wishes.

My parents are reasonable people, and they can definitely make sense.

My elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law can listen to their opinions as much as they can, but they can’t listen to everything. In the end, my parents must have the final say. "

Wang Liying was very satisfied with the eldest son-in-law's attitude, and her tone softened a bit, "I know you are a real child, and it is not convenient for you to argue with your elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, but there are some things that should be argued, and they should not be allowed to decide.

You first convey my thoughts to your parents, and I will tell them when we meet next time.

Our old Yue’s family is a reasonable person. If your family’s conditions are really difficult, let alone the 66 yuan bride price, even if you don’t give a cent, we have no complaints.

But your family obviously can afford it, but you don't want to pay the money, so don't blame me for having an idea.

In addition, let me ask one more question, did your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law pay for the money you spent on your wedding? "

"Of course not. My parents both have jobs, so there's no need for them to spend money." Su Tiangang said firmly.

Of course Wang Liying knew this, she just asked knowingly, "Since your two sister-in-laws are not marrying you a wife, why are they bothering so much?
If you want to be nosy, you have to pay. If you don't pay, you won't have the right to speak.

I've heard of situations where the younger brother-in-law gets married and the sister-in-law adds a share of the money.

I have never heard of such a troublemaker who wants to meddle in my brother-in-law's marriage without taking out money.

Your parents are in good health, so you can't let your daughter-in-law be the head of the house, right? "

Questioning his mother-in-law face to face, Su Tiangang felt very uncomfortable.

His parents are too honest to let their daughter-in-law handle it.Fortunately, they both have their own jobs, so they don't have to ask the two daughters-in-law for money, otherwise, they would have no right to speak.

Neither of his two sister-in-laws are fuel-efficient lamps, one is more powerful than the other, and the disturbed family has no peace all day long.

He agreed to move to live with his father-in-law after marriage, and the most important reason was that he didn't want to live under the same roof with his second sister-in-law.

When the eldest sister gets married, the general direction must be decided by the parents. Yue Wenxuan originally didn't intend to intervene, but he didn't expect that the two daughters-in-law of the Su family are not fuel-efficient lamps. If this doesn't deter them, the eldest sister will definitely will suffer.

He thought for a while and said, "Brother Gang, you should go back and discuss with your parents about the bride price.

Let's talk about the dowry again.

My eldest sister has worked so hard in our family. For the sake of our younger siblings, she gave up the opportunity to go to school, so that she didn't study for a year.

As a younger brother, I feel that I am indebted to my eldest sister, so my eldest sister's dowry will be prepared according to the highest standard in our local area.

Bicycles, sewing machines, watches, radios, all of these 4 major items will be available, and there will be no missing one.

In addition, futons, kettles, etc., of course, will also be fully prepared.

My sister's dowry should also be known to your family, lest our family's dowry is too rich and your family's dowry is too little. It would be bad if people gossip about it. "

Su Tian was shocked when he heard it!
He didn't expect that his brother-in-law would have such a big budget, that he would prepare four dowry pieces for his sister. If he could prepare all four dowry pieces, his wedding would be very beautiful.

In this era of marriage, although there are already four major pieces, it is rare to be fully prepared.

Most of the few families who can prepare all the four things when they get married are cadre families. Few people in ordinary worker families like them do this.

Even if an individual family can prepare everything, it is prepared jointly by both men and women.

Yue Wenxuan actually promised to prepare four large pieces of dowry for his sister, which is definitely a rare generosity.

If his little brother-in-law didn't talk big, based on this alone, the amount of bride price prepared by their family would have to be weighed carefully.

The 66 yuan that his two sister-in-laws negotiated before was absolutely impossible to pay, even 99 yuan was not enough to look at.

After returning, he conveyed the situation, and he wanted to see what the final result would be.

Although his two sister-in-laws are quite selfish, they are also people who want face, and they definitely don't want to be poked in the back.

Yue Wenxuan and his wife discussed in private what kind of dowry to prepare for her eldest daughter's marriage, but they haven't had time to reveal it to their son.

Now when she suddenly heard her son's big talk about preparing four big items for the boss, Wang Liying became anxious.

If she really prepared according to what her son said, it would really kill her.

Not to mention preparing all 4 big items, it is not an easy task to prepare one of them.

Whether it's a bicycle ticket, a sewing ticket, or a watch ticket, which one can an ordinary family like theirs buy?

Even if one of the four major items is prepared for the eldest daughter, I don't know how many people are required to exchange the ticket.

It is simply impossible for an ordinary worker's family like theirs to prepare all the tickets for the four major items.

Even if you have tickets in hand, if you want to buy all four major items, you need to prepare at least 500 yuan.

Taking out such a large sum of money as a dowry for the eldest daughter, she can indeed take it out, but she doesn't want to take it, this is simply gouging out her heart!
She has 7 daughters, if they are all married according to the standard of the eldest daughter, will she not be able to live well in the future?

Thinking of this, she looked at her son and said decisively:
"What kind of dowry to prepare for your eldest sister? This is something that your father and I worry about, so leave it alone.

You have 8 brothers and sisters, and it is true that your elder sister has suffered the most, but who made her born in the most difficult era?

She is not the only child of her age who has not gone to school. How many of your sister's good friends have gone to school?
Your father and I suffered even more when we were born, so who can we blame?

It's not easy for your elder sister, and your father and I both know this, let alone treat her badly.

Therefore, we discussed it. Of course it is impossible to have all four major items. Our family does not have this condition, but we will prepare a sewing machine for her as a dowry.

Among the shikumen around us, we can’t find a few who are willing to marry their daughters with sewing machines. We are worthy of your elder sister. "

Yue Xiangmei never thought that there would be such a generous dowry, she was a family-oriented person, let alone four big ones, even if her mother said to give her a sewing machine as a dowry, she thought it was too much.

She is the oldest one in the family, and she has been with her parents since she was a child. Now that the family's conditions have just improved, how can she let the family fall into dire straits again because of preparing a dowry for her.

The dowry is a bit bigger, but it's just a temporary decency, and after a few days of marriage, no one talks about it.

The life at home goes on forever, and that is the most important thing.

After hearing Mama's words, she immediately stated: "There is no need to prepare a sewing machine for me, let alone four big pieces, even if you prepare them for me, I won't want them.

I'm not the only sister in the family. If everyone prepares so many dowries, will my parents' life be difficult?
If we all prepare dowry according to this standard, our family will not be able to get together even if we sell everything.

I didn't feel that I had suffered a lot. I didn't go to school because I didn't like reading. This was my own choice, and I didn't complain.

If you ask me, our family still prepares the dowry with reference to other people’s homes, and the dowry is kept as it should be, so why take it back?
Leave the dowry gift, don’t prepare any sewing machine for me, prepare the bedding, thermos, etc., the dowry money is not enough at all, and a lot of money has to be put into it.

If I’m the only girl in the family, I can do whatever. There are six more behind me. I’m the head of the family, so the dowry can only be less, not more.

In the future, when the sixth and seventh sisters get married, if the family conditions improve, they can consider marrying more dowries. "

Yue Xiangmei's attitude was very firm, and what she said was very clear.

What she was talking about was the actual situation. There were too many girls in the family. If there were too many dowries, the burden would be too heavy to bear.

Except for Yue Wenxuan, everyone else in the family had the same idea as the boss.

The words said by the eldest daughter almost reached the bottom of Wang Liying's heart. After hearing this, she felt very warm.

The eldest daughter was still as sensible as ever, and she didn't embarrass the family just because it was preparing a dowry for her.

Seeing that his mother was about to speak, Yue Wenxuan hurriedly said:
"Mum, elder sister, don't worry, listen to me first.

What you say makes sense, but I'm not a person who slaps my face to make me fat. If I didn't have this ability, I wouldn't say such big words. "

Speaking of this, he took out 4 tickets and handed them to his mother, "Look, I have all the tickets, and I just need to pay for the 4 big ones to go home.

If you want me to say that it is also the luck of the eldest sister, who let me have these 4 tickets in my hand. "

"Second Sister, Fourth Sister, I will declare in advance."

Yue Wenxuan glanced over the second and fourth sisters, and said seriously:

"When you get married in the future, I don't guarantee that there will be four major pieces, it can only be based on how much ability you have.

This time it was a coincidence that I happened to have tickets for the four major packages in my hand. I can't obviously have them but not prepare them for the eldest sister. I can't do this kind of thing. "

Hearing his words in the ears of several older sisters, the second and fourth sisters were both relieved and bitter at the same time.

In the past, they were the elder sisters who took care of and humbled the younger brothers. Now that the younger brothers have grown up, they have to take care of their elder sisters in turn.

It may be that they have been used to it over the years. In their hearts, it is a matter of course for them to take care of and be humble.Now being cared and taken care of by the little brother, of course they are very happy and warm in their hearts, but such a sensible little brother makes them feel very sour.

Deep in their hearts, although they also hope that their younger brother will be successful, they hope that he can be happy every day, carefree, and don't have to worry about anything.

The second sister said first: "Brother, I don't need you to prepare any dowry when I get married, let alone compare with the eldest sister."

"Me too. I am satisfied to stay in the city and have such a good job." The fourth sister also said.

"It's good that you can understand. You are all my sisters. When you get married, I hope that you can all get married in a good manner without leaving any regrets.

But I am so capable, I can only do my best to realize this wish, but there is no guarantee that it will be realized. "

Of course Yue Wenxuan has this ability, but he won't say that.

Wang Liying picked up the four tickets in her hand and looked at them again and again, but she couldn't read, so she could only look at the general idea.Afraid that he would admit his mistake, he showed it to Yue Guangping again so that he could take a closer look.

Yue Guangping is also illiterate, but he has seen these four types of tickets, and they are real at first glance.

After reading it, he raised his head to look at his son, and asked in surprise:

"Where did you get these 4 tickets? Did you make any mistakes?"

Yue Wenxuan said calmly: "Didn't I tell you that I was invited to perform in other places this time, and because the performance was so good, these units rewarded me with many gifts and tickets.

Some tickets are national, but some are their local tickets.

It’s useless to get those tickets from other places. It took me a lot of effort to find someone to exchange for the national or our local tickets.

This is how the tickets for these 4 large items were obtained, they were all reasonable and legal, and absolutely no mistakes were made. "
