Chapter 484 What is required for the engagement ceremony

Early the next morning, Li Mingxia took Li Zhengpin and Zhang to the town to buy a betrothal gift for Yin Cuicui. Li Zhengde also went with them, but this time Li Zhengde planned to visit Song Li's home.

Li Mingxia handed the gift box prepared last night to Li Zhengde, "This is the gift I prepared for Song Li and Madam Song. Don't go empty-handed."

Although Li Mingxia disliked Mrs. Song very much, his younger brother and Song Li got along very well after all. In addition, Li Mingxia did not want to implicate Song Li for the mistakes of others. In the final analysis, Mrs. Song did those things only because she was worried that she would be involved with Song Li, and it did not cause any actual impact on himself or his family, so Li Mingxia did not intend to care about it.

"What's in it? Is it expensive?" Li Zhengde asked a little embarrassedly.

Li Mingxia shook his head: "It's not worth much, just send it over without worry."

Li Mingxia gave him two bottles of beauty-enhancing skin care lotion with instructions on how to use it, as well as a box of lip balm made from the lipstick in the space, ten apples and twenty huge strawberries. Although these things might seem like rare treasures to others, they were not worth mentioning in Li Mingxia's opinion.

Li Zhengde went to the Song family as a guest. These gifts were necessary because even if Mrs. Song saw them, she would not be able to show Li Zhengde a bad face.

"Okay, sister, I'll go then. I will definitely go home in the evening. You don't have to wait for me. Brother Song said that he will send a carriage to take me back in the evening. You and mother don't have to worry." Li Zhengde felt relieved after hearing this. He hugged the brocade box tightly and said with a smile.

Li Mingxia nodded and gave Li Zhengde a purse. Only then did he feel at ease to take Li Zhengpin and Zhang to go shopping.

"Mom, I don't really know what we should prepare. Please tell us." Although Li Mingxia is not afraid of spending money, he doesn't know how to spend the money.

Zhang smiled and tapped Li Mingxia's head: "Look at you, you are already such a big girl, how come you don't know anything? Go to the poultry store and buy two big geese. Actually, wild geese are better, but there are not many wild geese here, and the price is too expensive, so now two big geese will do for the engagement. If you are a poor family, you can bring two kilograms of meat and a few kilograms of rice to place the engagement."

Li Mingxia nodded, "Anything else?"

"Then there are two pieces of cloth, four pieces of jewelry, a box of cakes, and a little betrothal money, and that's it."

If these things are expensive, there are expensive ways to give them, and if they are cheap, there are cheap ways to give them, so there is still a lot of flexibility.

"I think we should buy cotton cloth, good quality cotton cloth. We should not be too shabby with the jewelry, but give silver as a gift." Zhang had enough silver in her hands, so she would not treat her future daughter-in-law harshly.

For country folks, two pieces of cloth as a betrothal gift are mostly coarse cloth, and two pieces of high-quality cotton cloth are already very presentable. The jewelry given are mostly made of copper, iron, or even wood. It is just a formality, and Zhang's things are already very good.

But Li Mingxia felt that it was still not enough. Not to mention that this was the first time their Li family had held a wedding, this was the girl that Li Zhengpin had liked for so many years. Li Mingxia wanted to give her more respect so that Yin Cuicui could feel at ease. After all, there were still two months before the wedding. If Yin Cuicui was worried and anxious every day because of his words, he would feel bad.

"Let's buy silk for the cloth, and pick out the jewelry later. Don't worry, mother. What I have here is enough. This is your eldest daughter-in-law. Maybe you will have a grandson this year. It's a good start and the rest will be great! This is the first wedding we have held since we separated. We must make it lively and beautiful to show them!" Li Mingxia said to Zhang!

Zhang was not a stingy person, but she felt a little uncomfortable spending her daughter's money to marry her son. However, when she thought about what her daughter said just now, she felt it made sense.

"Let's go with silk. After we get married, whether I follow you or me, I need two decent clothes. Let's go and take a look."

As for Li Zhengpin, he had no opinion. He didn't understand these things, so he left it entirely to his younger sister and mother. Anyway, he knew that his younger sister and mother would do a good job and would not let Cuicui down.

After arriving at the cloth shop, Li Mingxia picked out a piece of red silk, and then a piece of pink, a piece of light red, and a piece of light blue silk. She wanted all of them.

"Buy so much?" Zhang originally thought that only two pieces of cloth would be enough, but she didn't expect Li Mingxia to buy so much.

"This red one will be given when the engagement comes, so that my future sister-in-law can make her wedding dress. The rest can be used to make a few decent clothes for her after she gets married. Mother, don't you think about it? Can Yin Laoer and Yin Laoer's wife prepare all these things for my future sister-in-law? If my sister-in-law wears tattered clothes on the wedding day, it will be an shame for our family." Li Mingxia said to Zhang.

"That's the case! Then buy it!" Zhang now obeys Li Mingxia's words. Of course, she also really feels sorry for Yin Cuicui.

"If you ask me, we should buy another red one." Li Mingxia turned around to look at Li Zhengpin, then smiled while covering his mouth.

At first, Zhang didn't understand why she had to buy another red one. Now she thought it through. Yin Cuicui was going to wear her wedding dress, and her eldest son was going to wear the groom's clothes!

"After we get the betrothal gift, we will send all the fabrics to our future sister-in-law and ask her to help make it for our eldest brother!" Li Mingxia had heard of such things and it was not nonsense.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Zhang nodded repeatedly, and Li Zhengpin's face turned slightly red, but it could be seen that he was still very happy.

"After all, she is my daughter. She is very quick-witted! Let's do it!" Zhang agreed immediately and turned around to look at her eldest son who was grinning foolishly. She knew what he thought without asking.

After coming out of the cloth shop, I went to buy jewelry for Yin Cuicui, two silver bracelets, both heavy, with patterns of many children and blessings on them. They looked very auspicious and very heavy in the hand.

"This one is beautiful. Otherwise it would have to be the mother who said it. She has good taste." Li Mingxia flattered him from the side.

When it was time to pick a ring, Li Mingxia asked Li Zhengpin to choose by himself, "It's not possible for mom and I to choose everything. Big brother, pick one. If you like it, my future sister-in-law will definitely like it too!"

Li Zhengpin paused and nodded.
