Young people have no idea about the complicated etiquette of marriage and the different rules between the north and the south.

But the two listened to the advice. Under the suggestion of Xia's mother and sister-in-law, Xia Haoyang and Zeng Jingyi said that their parents would make the full decision and they would do their best to cooperate as tools.

"Then I will ask my in-laws directly to see what rules and rituals you have in the north. Our adults will negotiate and communicate. You two don't have to worry about anything. Just do what we say when the time comes."

Xia Haoyang and Zeng Jingyi looked at each other and answered in unison: "Oh."

Mother Xia was very satisfied. She was not worried that young people did not know etiquette and rules. She was worried that you did not know and were self-righteous. If the two of them had all kinds of unorthodox and bizarre ideas about their wedding and required both families to accommodate them, it would make Mother Xia even more distressed and difficult to accept. It was good that the two of them listened to her completely.

"That's it." Mother Xia picked up her cell phone and stood up, apparently planning to call Zeng Jingyi's parents immediately to discuss the wedding.

"Oh, Mom, I don't care about anything else, but you should reserve two or three tables for me to entertain my friends at the wedding banquet. Maybe three tables are not enough. If all the people from the Guoan Club come, the players alone will have to occupy several tables. So, I will first find out how many people will come." For the wedding, the only issue Xia Haoyang needed to consider was the personnel arrangement.

"I, I also want to invite some college classmates and friends, but one table should be enough." Zeng Jingyi stuck out her tongue, perhaps feeling embarrassed for having so few friends.

"There's no rush about the wedding guests and the banquet. That's the least important thing. I'll take care of other more important things first. Yangyang and Jingyi just be good, don't worry." Mother Xia smiled and made a phone call.

"Jingyi, I remember you liked the wedding dress I wore when I got married last time. Now the designer has released some new styles. Would you like to come and have a look? If you also like his design style, I can make an appointment for you. We can fly to the Apennines and let him design a new wedding dress according to your requirements." Second sister-in-law Sun Na took out her mobile phone and shook it. The screen showed some of the latest dresses and wedding gowns.

"Can't we ask that designer to come to Vancouver to discuss this? Let me take a look at his other works. I remember that the wedding dress you wore last time was a Sheath (straight-tube wedding dress), but Jingyi's belly seems to be bigger than yours at that time. To cover it completely, she might have to wear an A-line (A-shaped) or Empire (Queen-shaped). I wonder if he has some good designs." Sister-in-law Kuang Yurou also leaned in front of Sun Na, looking at the wedding dress pictures on her mobile phone.

Zeng Jingyi was of course also interested in the beautiful wedding dress, because she was going to wear it herself.

On the most important day in one's life, the wedding dress one wears must be beautiful. Zeng Jingyi came to sit on the other side of her second sister-in-law Sun Na without saying a word, and then the three of them started chatting about wedding dresses.

There is no doubt that Xia Haoyang is redundant at this time.

Mother Xia had her back to the crowd as she was talking to her in-laws on the phone to discuss wedding etiquette. Her tone was gentle and proper as always. The three sisters-in-law were admiring the wedding dress together, and occasionally making sounds of exclamation. What was the point of a grown man like me sitting here?

Seeing that no one bothered to look at me, I decided to just pack up and leave.

Xia Haoyang walked into the living room and saw his second brother's PS5 game console placed next to the TV and not put away, so he started playing games happily.

Now that the wedding process has started, we will be busy this New Year.

As expected, there are some differences in the taboos of weddings between the north and the south. For example, in terms of time, there is a saying in Yancheng that "don't get married in the first month, and don't get married in the twelfth month"; and based on the traditional customs of Yancheng and Wenshi, there are also some taboos about March, April, and July, so the time of engagement and wedding must be carefully arranged.

Fortunately, I returned to Vancouver early this year to take care of my pregnancy. It is still November in the lunar calendar, and the rule of not getting engaged in the twelfth month in Yancheng cannot be changed. The only thing that can be changed is my schedule.

Although the time was rushed, the process was not ambiguous at all.

After choosing an auspicious day, the entire Xia family flew to Yancheng on a private plane to propose marriage to Zeng Jingyi's home.

This marriage proposal does not mean that the entire Xia family has to go to the Zeng family and have a meal together. Rich and powerful families are most concerned about dignity, and a full sense of ceremony must be given.

Therefore, even if the marriage proposal is from a different place, there must be a huge motorcade to lead the way, and the woman's relatives and friends must be present. If it is not prohibited in the urban area of ​​Yancheng, the woman will respond by firing cannons before the man's motorcade arrives at her home.

The scene of exchanging engagement rings was lively but solemn. According to Yancheng custom, the newlyweds even followed their father-in-law and mother-in-law to worship the bride's ancestors.

It is inevitable to invite relatives and friends present to an engagement banquet at a hotel, but you cannot say goodbye when seeing them off, as it may cause remarriage, which is taboo.

It took me nearly half a month to complete the engagement ceremony.

During the days in Yancheng, the Xia family lived in the villa in Bagu Village given to Xia Haoyang by Grandma Yu.

Shao Minzhi, Qin Jiali, Li Tianci, Han Xiyu and others were also here, but they rested at Xiao Mengyan's house next door at night.

"Jingyi, Jingyi, how much dowry did Xia Haoyang's parents give to your family?"

Qin Jiali and Shao Minzhi opened their eyes wide and had wanted to ask for a long time, but the adults from both sides were present, so they had no chance to find out the news.

"Why are you asking about this? The fat guy's family is rich and he will definitely not treat Jingyi badly. Don't make yourself unhappy. This will save you unnecessary comparisons and worries when you get married in the future." Han Xiyu said casually.

"Go away, many rich people appear generous on the surface but are actually very stingy. The amount of the betrothal gift can prove the attitude of the Fatty's family towards Zeng Jingyi, which is very important." Qin Jiali said seriously.

"Then how much do you think the Fatty family should give as a betrothal gift to prove their attitude towards Jingyi?"

Qin Jiali puffed up her cheeks and thought seriously for a few seconds: "The fat boss's family is so rich, it must be at least 10 million."

"Ten million is not enough. Brother Xiaoming gave a dowry of 30 million when he got married. Movie King Liang gave a dowry of 20 million to marry Sister Jialing. King Guo also bought a house worth 20 million when he married that guy. My senior brother's family is known as a big family in Kuaiji, so it cannot be less than this." Shao Minzhi argued.

"But I heard that when Xiaofei married Big S, the bride price was about 900 million, so million should be a lot." Qin Jiali hesitated.

"Can you guess it here? Why don't you just listen to Jingyi?" Hongling thought the two of them were very interesting.

"Yes, yes, yes, so how much is it?" Everyone in the room looked at Zeng Jingyi.
