The life of Lao Liu since 1944

After saying that, Hou Jie took out something from his wide lapel. It was a thick stack of coins. He threw them all on the table without hesitation. The crisp sounds were like heavy hammers, hitting everyone's heart.

1000 yuan, in this day and age, is enough for an ordinary family to live for several years or even longer, but at this moment he displayed it with ease, as if it were just a toy he casually threw away.

Several people were instantly shocked by his arrogance, and a subtle sense of tension filled the air. Especially the third brother's family, their eyes revealed great envy and desire, after all, one thousand coins was not a small amount for them.

However, they also know clearly that this money is not earned through their own labor, and they cannot have any unreasonable expectations.

Although their hearts were burning like fire, their good upbringing and self-control allowed them to resist the urge to snatch the wealth. They could only watch helplessly as the wealth lay quietly on the table, like the moon in the water or the flower in the mirror, within reach yet out of reach.

"Take this money, it's a token of my appreciation."

Hou Jie was thinking about something in his mind.

"Take this money, I don't believe you won't be tempted. Even if I have many problems, I will still be your good son. This money is enough for you to build a brick house."

Qin's father and mother refused, "No, this money is too much, we can't take it. According to our rules, 5-10 yuan is usually enough for the betrothal gift. We are doing this for our daughter's happiness, not for money."

Hou Jie said nonchalantly, "Take it! I have money. It's okay if you lose it. I won't ask you for it."

The two were about to decline politely, but the third brother quietly reached out and gently pulled their sleeves. His movements were gentle but firm, and his eyes revealed a subtle hint and a mischievous smile, obviously indicating that they didn't have to rush to refuse, and could discuss it later or make other plans.

"Brother, please accept it! In their eyes, this is nothing. They drive cars. What's their real purpose?"

Faced with this unexpected fortune, Father Qin did not make a decision immediately. He pondered for a moment, his eyes deep, as if he was weighing something. Then, he slowly accepted the money.

"Could it be that this boy is being raised as a concubine? Or does he like his own daughter? Forget it, I can't figure it out."

The bride price is very high, but if he doesn't treat his daughter well, he won't get the money.

Qin Huairu looked at the huge amount of money as a betrothal gift and had the wrong idea.

"You said you were seeking revenge against the Jia family. I see you love me so much, but you just don't say it. You bastard, you only know how to pretend. Humph!"

Hou Jie was thinking about something else.

"If I give more betrothal gifts, Jia Dongxu will definitely regret it when he sees Huairu. He will be so upset that such a pretty girl passed by him."

"When he comes and finds out the amount of my gift, he will definitely be devastated and want to die."

"I have avenged the Jia family and got a beautiful bride at the same time, killing two birds with one stone."

Father Qin saw his daughter and son-in-law, both of them were laughing foolishly.

"Don't mention it, they really look like a couple."

After a cough, he got down to business.

"Son-in-law! What are you going to do with your wedding?"

Hou Jieyou started pretending again. Although he has been married twice, he still pretended that I didn't understand. You always have to give others a chance to show off.

This time he planned to hold the wedding here, in the courtyard, and just give out wedding candies.

He knew that everyone in the courtyard was looking forward to him going back to hold the wedding ceremony, but he refused. If it weren't for his consideration, it wouldn't be embarrassing at all. He wouldn't even give out wedding candy.

It is not glorious for a man to get married for the third time these days.

"Father-in-law, it's up to you! It's best to do it as soon as possible in the village! Don't prepare meat and wine. I've already prepared them, don't waste money."

After hearing this, Qin's father discussed it with Qin Huairu's third uncle for a while.

"Chunsheng, three days from now is a good day. Let's prepare for the wedding that day. What do you think?"

There is no way. I am not confident enough when I meet a son-in-law from a wealthy family. I have to try to please him in the future. Maybe he will be of great help.

"Okay, father-in-law will listen to you."

Several people discussed the wedding in the house, and finally decided that three days later would be a good day to hold the wedding.

The yard outside was also crowded with people, and many children climbed onto the car, shouting and yelling excitedly. Soon, the car was filled with children.

Adults, don't do that. This car is so precious, don't damage it.

Someone scolded, "Get down quickly, don't damage the car, we can't afford the compensation."

A few older children got off the car sensibly. Although they were reluctant to leave, they still knew the importance of the matter.

Those little kids who are 3.4, 5.6, , or years old are not doing well.

He clung to the car tightly and refused to get out. The adults had no choice but to go forward and pick him up.

When I held the one, the other cried. When I let go, the other's expression changed immediately and he started to giggle.

It made a group of people laugh and cry, and feel helpless.

Qin Huairu, who was in the room, heard the noise, said hello to Hou Jie, and left the room.

"Haha! Folks, it's okay. Let the children sit down! Just be careful not to hurt them."

After saying a few words, he went back into the house.

The villagers at the door had a better impression of the new son-in-law Hou Jie and continued to talk about him.

"The new son-in-law is a nice guy!"

"Yeah! Really cool. Really a real man."

"Hey! You know what! This car belongs to Huairu's boyfriend. Our village has a golden phoenix. Did you see that? Huairu has changed so much. It's like she has changed her appearance. She is so beautiful that it's unbelievable."

"Like that! Yes, the lady in the palace."

Some people objected with a low voice, saying that they knew more.

"What do you know? Do you know who came with Huairu today?"

Those who knew about it tacitly kept silent and just sat there to watch the fun.

Those who didn't know became anxious and urged, "Don't dilly-dally, just tell me, I'm tired of your procrastination."

The man coughed twice, then suppressed his grin and said quickly:

"Ahem! This guy has been here before. He was the one that Huairu was engaged to a few years ago. He didn't die on the battlefield and came back alive."

"Oh! I see! It must be this guy. He couldn't let go of Huairu, so he came back again."

"What a coincidence! If it was a few days later, Huairu might have married someone else."

"That's right! I see! Huairu! She is destined to be his wife. Otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence. It must be God's help."
