Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

Chapter 589 1 bunch of gold bracelets

"You just received the bride price, do you also have to accept the dowry from your mother's family?" Everyone had discussed the process. After the ring exchange, everyone went up to the stage to take photos with the newlyweds. The banquet was held at the same time, and the day was completed in a lively manner. .

But no matter where you are, there are always a few discordant notes. The girl screaming on the stage right now is the daughter of another close friend of the Liu family's parents, named Zhang Xiaotang.

She had always liked Liu Yiyu, and even told her parents that she wanted them to help arrange the marriage. However, Liu Yiyu was completely devoted to Yaoyao and would not marry her unless she was there. Zhang Xiaotang had no choice but to give up and give up pursuing Liu Yiyu.

But she really couldn't bear to see Yaoyao take away everything from her so easily. Seeing that Yaoyao's parents didn't come, she immediately launched an attack and demanded a detailed account of Yaoyao's dowry.

It is an old custom to give a dowry along with the betrothal gift on the day of engagement, which means that the two families have equal financial resources and are well-matched. This saying has long been discontinued, but there are many people watching the fun in the audience, and several of Zhang Xiaotang's children are working hard. They knew that Yaoyao's parents had divorced, and they didn't even come to the scene today.

She guessed that Yaoyao had a bad relationship with her parents and must not have prepared any dowry. Zhang Xiaotang took advantage of this to embarrass Yaoyao and made her unable to end the day. After all, her daughter was engaged, but her reputation for not even preparing a dowry was not good.

Neither Yaoyao nor Liu Yiyu expected that there would be such a moment. The two of them looked at each other and were about to come up with an excuse to talk Zhang Xiaotang back when they heard Zhong Meihui shouting from the audience.

"Of course our mother's family has prepared a dowry, and it's all here." Zhong Meihui and her sister group came on stage holding several big red brocade boxes, claiming that this was Yaoyao's dowry.

Zhong Meihui opened the brocade box casually, and the first one left Zhang Xiaotang speechless.

Except for Zhong Meihui, each of the nine members of the sister group prepared a pair of gold bracelets for Yaoyao. A total of eighteen pairs of gold bracelets were lying in the brocade box. They were so golden that anyone could estimate their value.

"Now a pair of bracelets must weigh at least 30 grams." People in the audience calculated their accounts one after another. A pair of bracelets costs at least 7 to 8 yuan, and here is at least 7 to 8 yuan, which is already considered a very heavy dowry.

The awkward expression on Yaoyao's face immediately eased. She thanked the people who glanced at the sister group. She didn't expect that everyone quietly prepared so many things for her.

"You only have 20 to [-] yuan here, but the gift from the Liu family is more than [-] yuan. How can this be considered a match? You have clearly outdone the Liu family."

After Zhang Xiaotang saw that his proposal did not faze Yaoyao, he began to worry about the amount of money. This time, there were some voices in the crowd blaming Zhang Xiaotang. All girls’ dowries were collected by their parents’ families after receiving the betrothal gift, and then adding some more for the girl. If you bring it back, it will be enough if you can get half of the amount from your husband's family. Then you really need to bring it back one-to-one.

What's more, this was the Liu family's wedding after all, and no one said anything. Why was Zhang Xiaotang jumping up and down?

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu clearly said that when you are looking for an in-law, you have to find someone who is well-matched, otherwise you will be in trouble in the future. If you are not a good match now, you will not be able to live like this in the future."

Zhang Xiaotang's words went too far, and Liu Yiyu's face became very ugly. He couldn't help but rush off the stage and hit someone.

"Didn't you see that there are several brocade boxes here? You haven't even finished reading them. Why are you shouting in such a hurry?" Zhong Meihui scolded Zhang Xiaotang sternly. She didn't care which family she was from. As long as someone dared to She would not give face to the Seven Fairies for ruining Yaoyao's engagement party.

Zhong Meihui opened the second box, which contained a total of 16 in cash, which Zhong Meihui had prepared for Yaoyao, hoping that her marriage would go smoothly.

After seeing these red banknotes, Zhang Xiaotang was so angry that he couldn't speak. The 16 to [-] yuan just now plus the current [-] yuan already exceeded the betrothal gift given by the Liu family.

"The third thing is my wedding gift to my sister." Zhong Meihui opened the last brocade box, and there was a pair of green jade bracelets lying inside.

Zhong Meihui said that this bracelet was worth 20 yuan. The people present were all well-known people, so they could naturally tell the quality of the bracelet. What's more, Zhong Meihui's bracelet was bought from Sotheby's auction house, so it was more credible.

Zhang Xiaotang turned pale with anger. She didn't even eat the engagement banquet and found an excuse to leave the venue.

"Sister, how do you know about dowry? Is there such a custom in your hometown?" Yaoyao had attended Zhong Meihui's wedding banquet and knew that the dowry from her mother's family was only required when she got married, not when she got engaged. When did Meihui know about this custom, and she chose this time to help her out.

"I didn't know there was such a custom. I just didn't want you to be looked down upon by your husband's family, so I prepared some extra things for you. If you hadn't said that the gift Liu Yiyu's family prepared was 20 in cash, and it was inappropriate to give too much in return, I would have put it in the brocade box There was 66 cash in it, which shocked everyone."

Zhong Meihui was glad that she had prepared for a rainy day. Sure enough, she was right to bring more money. Sun Xiaolan used a gold necklace to string together those gold bracelets and hung them on Yaoyao's chest, so that everyone could take a group photo together.

Yaoyao's engagement dress was originally simple, without too complicated patterns, but now the bright red bottom brought out all the dazzling gold, making Yaoyao look even more luxurious.

The engagement party ended successfully. In the evening, Yaoyao updated her blog and attached all the photos. She immediately received blessings from netizens and fans.

A large bunch of gleaming gold bracelets undoubtedly became the highlight, attracting everyone's discussion.

"The blogger is so lucky to be able to get married wearing so many gold bracelets. I didn't even have any when I got married."

"It's so high-profile, it must be fake. It doesn't cost much to buy it at night, just a few yuan each at most."

In the evening discussion, most people were envious, but there were also a few people who hated the rich. They felt that Yaoyao was vain. There were so many rich people in the world, but none of them went out carrying a lot of cash every day.

"This is your short-sightedness. The bride who got married in Mindi has more gold jewelry on her body than the blogger wears."

There are also a large group of people on the Internet who show off their wealth and even post photos of their relatives at their weddings. Sure enough, the bride wore gold jewelry from head to toe and could not even lift her head.

Yaoyao looked at it for a while and then closed the computer. In an instant, she found that her eyes were blurred with tears.

Liu Yiyu originally wanted to live here with Yaoyao after they got engaged, but Yaoyao refused. After what happened today, she just wanted to have some quiet time or stay with Zhong Meihui for a while.

Before, Yaoyao only regarded Zhong Meihui as her sister, but from today on, Zhong Meihui can take the place of her mother in her heart.
