Chapter 77 The Dowry
Tang Xiaochuan stopped teasing her, and said directly: "Tomorrow morning, you have three things to do: first, I will invite people to dinner at noon tomorrow, and there are about seven or eight people including me. You have to go to the Chinese restaurant of the hotel Book a table, the Chinese restaurant in this hotel is of a high standard, you can book as high standard!"

"Secondly, I want to give a boy who is eighteen or nineteen years old and is studying in college and a girl who is 21 or two years old who is already working. You can choose two gifts for me, and I will use them at noon tomorrow!"

"Third, contact the bank and withdraw 180 million in cash tomorrow morning!"

Su Xiaowei quickly took out her notebook and pen to record them one by one. After she finished, she raised her head and said, "Mr. Tang, may I ask, what is the relationship between these two people and you?"

"relative!"

"As a gift for a boy, I suggest choosing the latest promising mobile phone that can play mobile games; as a gift for a girl, I suggest an international brand-name bag. What do you think?"

Tang Xiaochuan thought about it, nodded: "Okay, that's it!"

At 10:30 a.m. the next day, Tang Xiaochuan asked the hotel to send a car, together with a car driven by Brother Bing, to Jinding to pick up Tang Hanmin, his wife and his father-in-law and his mother-in-law's family.

At 11:30, two cars stopped at the entrance of the hotel, and two doormen immediately ran over to open the door.

Old man Wang got out of the car and looked up, and couldn't help sighing: "My old Wang is so old, this is the first time to eat in such a high-end place!"

The wife pinched his arm and said in a low voice: "Can you be a little bit promising, and you are not afraid of your son-in-law's jokes!"

"What are you afraid of? He is my son-in-law, not an outsider!"

Tang Xiaochuan brought Su Xiaowei to the door to greet her.

"Welcome uncle and aunt, this is my younger sister and younger brother, hello!"

The old man Wang immediately said to his son and daughter: "This is your brother-in-law's eldest brother, and you are also called eldest brother!"

"Hello, big brother!"

"Hello, big brother!"

The younger brother is more introverted and not in a high mood, but the younger sister is cheerful and generous.

"Okay, uncle and aunt, let's go in and talk!"

Led by Tang Xiaochuan and Su Xiaowei, the group arrived at the Wenchang Pavilion of the hotel's Chinese restaurant. This is a medium-sized private room that can seat ten people.

Tang Xiaochuan greeted everyone to sit down and asked, "I heard that my younger sister has a boyfriend and is planning to get married next year. Why don't you bring him?"

The little girl smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, brother. He still has work today, so he can't come. He even asked me to eat more!"

"Haha, eat more later!"

Tang Xiaochuan beckoned to Su Xiaowei, and took two bags from her and sent them to my younger brother and Xiao Mian respectively, "It's the first time we meet, this is a small gift for my younger brother and younger sister!"

The mother-in-law quickly declined: "Oh, brother, you are too polite!"

The little girl saw that there was a brand-name bag in the bag, and she was overjoyed, "Thank you, brother!"

When the mother-in-law saw that her son had accepted the gift, she didn't say thank you, and she got angry, "You child, why don't you thank elder brother?"

"Oh, thank you, brother!"

"You're welcome, as long as you like it!"

Xiaowei bent down and asked, "Mr. Tang, is the food ready?"

"Okay, let them serve the food!"

After a while, a table of delicious food was put on the round table one by one by the waiters.

"Sir, your dishes are all ready, if you need anything else, please let us know in time, please take it easy!"

Tang Xiaochuan immediately raised his wine glass to toast his father-in-law's family. In addition to the drink drunk by the younger brother who was still studying, the women drank red wine and the men drank white wine.

After drinking for three rounds, Tang Xiaochuan asked his father-in-law: "Uncle, my parents haven't read any books and don't have much knowledge. I guess they won't be able to say anything even if they come. I hope your two elders don't mind. I'm in charge of everything." Help! Regarding the marriage between Hanmin and Xiuqing, if you have any requests or ideas, you can put them forward, let's discuss it!"

Old man Wang said: "It's almost time to discuss. Both parties will hold a banquet at their own homes and invite relatives and friends to have a wedding banquet. On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, your family can send a car to welcome the relatives!"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "Uncle, there may be differences in the customs of the two sides. Should we bring some betrothal gifts when we welcome the bride here? Do you want to hold a ceremony on your side? Just invite a special wedding company to organize it. If you want We can take care of it, and we can bear the related expenses! In addition, how many cars will we send here, how many people will be sent to welcome the relatives, do you have any requirements in this regard! In addition, how many people from your gang will send the relatives over... "..."

Old man Wang hesitated and said, "Isn't it necessary to do the ceremony?"

His wife immediately said: "Why don't you need it? I am marrying my daughter, so I want to do it in a good way. I married my daughter quietly, and outsiders don't know how to say it!"

The husband and wife Tang Hanmin and Wang Xiuqing couldn't speak at all, and they didn't know what to say.

Tang Xiaochuan echoed: "Auntie is right, not to say that there are conditions, even if there are no conditions, we should do it decently. Now that we have the conditions, we must do it well and try not to leave them with regrets!"

Old man Wang thought for a while, "Okay, then invite a wedding company to hold a ceremony!"

Next, the two parties discussed related matters regarding the differences in customs between the two places, and the discussion was still very pleasant.

At the end, Tang Xiaochuan cleaned up the table in front of him, took a suitcase from Brother Zhan, put it on the turntable, and turned the suitcase in front of Old Man Wang.

"Uncle and aunt, although your two elders didn't mention the dowry, we can't help but say that here is 180 million, I hope you two don't think too little! This is not what I mean, it is what my parents mean, my parents said What other people have, ours should have, money can be earned, as long as Xiuqing is not wronged!"

Old man Wang heard, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law are sensible people, thank them for me! But as I said, if you don't want a bride price, then you don't want a bride price. If I accept the bride price now, wouldn't it be backfired?"

The wife stretched out her hand and tugged at his arm, "This is the wish of the two in-laws, don't you be bad?"

The old man Wang turned his head and stared at him, using the strength of wine to scold him angrily: "I'm marrying my daughter, not selling my daughter. If I say no, I don't want it! Besides, you accepted the bride price when the eldest one gets married this time. Receive the bride price? How much? This time I received 180 million, will I also receive 180 million next time my second child gets married? Can the second child’s boyfriend’s family get it? The two bride prices are different, will you look down on your second child? In-law's house? How do you ask the second child to behave in the in-law's house in the future? Also, if you do this, the two sisters will compare with each other, how will they get along with each other in the future?"

The wife was so bullied by old man Wang that she was speechless for a long time.

Tang Xiaochuan had to admire the power of wine. If these words were normal, old man Wang would definitely not say them in front of him as an outsider, but after drinking wine, his scruples became much less.

Everyone was silent, Tang Xiaochuan had no choice but to smooth things over, "Auntie and uncle, according to the customs in our place, if the woman does not want a bride price, the man must bear all the expenses related to the wedding banquet and marriage related matters of the woman. See if this is okay, the wedding banquet and ceremony If we do it in our hometown, the relevant expenses will not be too high, and relatives and friends can also come to participate, our family will get [-] first, and if it is not enough, we will give it extra!"

Old man Wang had the steps to go down, so he made a decision on the spot: "Okay, just do as the elder brother said!"

After speaking, he opened the suitcase and took ten bundles of money from it, and returned all the rest to Tang Xiaochuan.
