Chapter 407 Dispute over Betrothal Gift
Today is the day when the elders of Shu Zhiqiang and Xiao Wenyun meet. After a simple chat, they can understand each other's situation.
As the youngest person at the dinner table, Shu Zhiqiang naturally shouldered the responsibility of pouring the wine.
He poured wine for the three men of the Xiao family one by one and shouted: "Uncle, eldest brother, second brother..."
After pouring wine for the three of them, he glanced at his father again, who also looked over with burning eyes.
Seeing Shu Biao's expectant eyes, Shu Zhiqiang took the bottle back directly.
Uh…
Shu Biao's expression froze, and a trace of anger rose in his heart.
It’s okay if you’re not allowed to drink it normally, but you’re not allowed to drink even a little bit on such a big day like today?
Xiao Renyi and others were also very confused and couldn't help asking: "Qiangzi, why don't you pour it for your father?"
Hearing this, Shu Zhiqiang shook the bottle in his hand and said, "No more..."
The capacity of a bottle of liquor is only so small, and it will be gone after being poured by the three people of the Xiao family.
After saying that, he picked up another bottle of Maotai, opened it, and poured it for his dad.
"Dad, just drink to your heart's content today..."
Hearing this, Shu Biao's eyes lit up instantly.
The wine has been poured, so someone has to brighten the atmosphere.
This responsibility naturally falls to Shu Zhiqiang, after all, he is the youngest here besides Shu Zhixuan.
So he immediately raised his wine glass, rushed to Xiao Renyi and said, "Uncle..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Wenhao shouted loudly: "You still call me uncle?"
"Qiangzi, the elders of our two families have met, you have to change your story!"
Xiao Wenyun's face turned red when she heard this, and she glared at the other party fiercely, but did not refute.
Xiao Renyi and Xu Chunfang were also stunned for a moment, then looked at Shu Biao and Xiong Fengxia and smiled.
Neither family refuted, which meant that everyone agreed with Xiao Wenhao's words.
Shu Zhiqiang immediately chuckled, looked at Xiao Renyi generously and said, "Dad, I want to toast you!"
After speaking, he didn't hesitate and drank the wine in one gulp.
"Hey...that's right!" Xiao Wenhao laughed and clapped his hands happily.
Xiao Wenqing on the side frowned and kept whispering to him to calm down.
Looking at Xiao Wenyun again, she had already buried her head in her chest shyly.
Xiao Renyi glanced at Shu Zhiqiang, raised his glass and drank the wine with great satisfaction.
The atmosphere has reached this point. It would be a waste if we don't take advantage of the victory.
So Xiong Fengxia immediately smiled with Xu Chunfang on the side and chatted about Shu Zhiqiang and Xiao Wenyun's marriage.
"Sister-in-law, do you think we should set a time for Qiangzi and Wen Yun?"
After speaking, he took out a red cloth from his pocket and handed it over: "This is the gift our family has agreed to give to Wen Yun."
Xu Chunfang's expression changed and she quickly declined: "Sister, what are you doing?
As long as they are willing to do anything about the two children, then we, the old couple, will naturally have nothing to say;
What we value is the character and ability of the child Qiangzi, so the betrothal gift can be as casual as possible. "
The couple had already decided not to want anything from Shu Zhiqiang's family.
With Shu Zhiqiang's ability, Xiao Wenyun would definitely have a good life if he married her.
Anyway, all the things I brought are for my daughter, and there is no shortage at home, so I might as well not ask for them.
Even if you want it, at most it will be the same as other people's houses, just turn it three times and ring it once.
Xiong Fengxia was also very grateful to hear that her future mother-in-law was so generous.
Compared with the snobbish Xu Xiuying, the in-laws in front of her really couldn't find any faults.
Facing the other party's refusal, Shu Biao on the side also said quickly: "In-laws, don't refuse in a hurry!"
"Let's take a look first, and then we'll talk about it later."
Hearing this, Xu Chunfang slowed down and looked at Xiao Renyi hesitantly.
"Then take a look." Xiao Renyi glanced at Shu Zhiqiang, then nodded.
The mainstay had already spoken, but Xu Chunfang could only take the red cloth and open it and take a look.
"Qiangzi! What gift are you going to give my sister?" Xiao Wenhao was very curious and looked at Shu Zhiqiang sideways.
"A jeep, a color TV, a refrigerator, a washing machine each, a pair of Omega watches, a set of hardware, a gift of 100,000 yuan... Ugh!"
Shu Zhiqiang slowly announced the betrothal gift he had prepared, making everyone present shrink their pupils.
But before he finished speaking, Shu Zhiqiang’s mouth was covered by Xiao Wenhao!
Xiao Wenhao glanced at the door in panic, then stared at Shu Zhiqiang and said, "Brother! I know you are wealthy."
"But you must not say this in front of your elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, do you hear me?"
After hearing Xiao Wenhao's words, Xiao Wenqing on the side quickly nodded in agreement.
When they marry a wife, it only costs three turns and a ring, plus a few hundred yuan in gift money.
Compared with the betrothal gift prepared by Shu Zhiqiang, it was just a drop in the bucket.
If their wives knew about it, they would complain about it very much at night.
However, at this moment, the door was suddenly opened...
I saw Zhao Chunyan pushing the door open and staring at Xiao Wenqing as if she wanted to kill someone.
And there was another person following her, it was Fang Xue who came with a child in her arms.
Fang Xue raised her eyebrows at Xiao Wenhao and said with a smile: "Tell me...what can't you say in front of us?"
Uh…
Xiao Wenhao was immediately frightened and said with the same smile: "Daughter-in-law, I didn't say anything."
Fang Xue snorted coldly, then called Xiao Renyi and his parents, and then looked at Shu Biao and Xiong Fengxia.
"Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Wen Yun's second sister-in-law Fang Xue."
"Hey, okay!" Shu Biao and Xiong Fengxia nodded repeatedly, feeling that this girl was more pleasing to the eye than the one next to them.
"No! We don't want any of these things!"
At this time, after hearing Shu Zhiqiang's report, Xiao Renyi immediately took the red cloth from Xu Chunfang's hand and started reading it.
When I saw that the list above was indeed what Shu Zhiqiang said, I felt relieved but also a little angry.
He slapped the announcement on the table, stared at Shu Biao and Shu Zhiqiang and said, "We have no objection to this marriage!"
“But our Xiao family is marrying off our daughters, not selling them to your Shu family;
Betrothal gifts and other things, our family will have as much as other people have;
So we don’t want any of these things that your family has prepared! "
This……
Seeing Xiao Renyi's refusal so simply, Xiong Fengxia and Shu Biao looked at each other and then looked at Shu Zhiqiang.
They were very happy that their future in-laws were so grand, but these things were all prepared by their son.
It was the son who had the final say whether to give or not, so they did not make the decision privately.
Xiong Fengxia also saw that this was Shu Zhiqiang's idea, and she was pleased and persuaded: "Qiangzi, your uncle and aunt see the importance you attach to Wen Yun."
“My uncle and aunt are very pleased, but we cannot ask for these heavy gifts;
And we can’t bring out equivalent things to use as Wen Yun’s dowry;
So you can change the bride price when you go back and make it the same as other people’s families. "
These calm words not only expressed recognition of Shu Zhiqiang's contribution to Xiao Wenyun, but also showed the Xiao family's attitude of refusing to accept heavy gifts.
After listening to Xiong Fengxia's words, Shu Zhiqiang stood up and said, "Dad, Mom!"
"From the time Wen Yun and I started dating, I have been your second elder's half son;
These things are not just my attitude towards Wen Yun. This is all my thanks to my second elder;
I am grateful to my two elders for raising such a good daughter as Wen Yun, but for helping me, an uneducated peasant, become a good girl;
If the gift of 100,000 yuan is too much for you two, then we will change it to 10,000 yuan, and I will give the rest to Wen Yun for safekeeping;
But I had already prepared these items when I was in the provincial capital, and I can’t withdraw them now;
So the gift money can be changed, but I will send all the items to your home. "
Hearing this, Fang Xue and Zhao Chunyan both looked at Shu Zhiqiang in surprise.
It was precisely because of these words that Zhao Chunyan suddenly felt that this guy was much more pleasing to the eye.
