Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister
Chapter 158 Xu Damao proposes marriage
The next day, Qin Huairu took Liu Guangtian and Qin Jingru to Qinjia Village and brought back the news from the Liu family.
When I heard that the other party's father was a seventh-level worker in a large state-owned factory and earned less than 100 yuan a month, I knew that he was from a wealthy family. Although Liu Guangtian was not very good-looking, at least he was from the city and was quite handsome compared to the village kids who worked at home.
Besides, Qin Jingru has a good relationship with Liu Guangtian, so there is no reason for Qin's parents to refuse.
Qin Huairu took out the 20 yuan betrothal gift prepared by the Liu family and handed it to Qin Jingru's parents on the spot. The matter was basically finalized.
Liu Guangtian, who seldom went to the countryside, was dragged out by Qin Jingru for a walk. Qin Huairu took the opportunity to tell her uncle about her family life.
First, her husband died young, and then her mother-in-law was imprisoned for speaking nonsense. She had to live a hard life raising three children by herself, and it was really hard.
She was originally his junior, and today she was introduced to his family by a matchmaker. The 20 yuan in his pocket was just given to him by the other party, so he couldn't bear it and lent Qin Huairu 10 yuan.
Qin Huairu was filled with joy, and his sad expression turned from cloudy to sunny, and he was smiling.
Even though the proposal was formally made today, it was agreed that next Sunday would be the official wedding day. Qin Huairu and Liu Guangtian returned to the courtyard, leaving Qin Jingru at home waiting to pick her up on the wedding day.
As soon as Qin Huairu arrived at the courtyard, he went to the Liu family to show off his achievements. If it weren't for my mother's intervention today, your Liu family would have no chance of marrying such a beautiful woman like my sister.
Liu Guangtian saw his dream come true and was no longer as hostile to Qin Huairu as before. He kept calling her "Sister Qin" and even Liu Haizhong was infected by her.
After this incident, the relationship between the Liu family and the Jia family was eased and became prosperous.
The next day was the day Xu Damao proposed marriage.
The third uncle is a man who won't show his hand until he gets the rabbit. In order to make him work seriously, Xu Damao sent the thank-you gift in advance, which made Yan Bugui very happy and naturally he would work harder.
Xu Damao lived alone, and when he went to the countryside to show movies, he could often get some local specialties, so he saved a lot of his salary. In addition, since it was a big event to get married, his parents also gave him 100 yuan in funds. With enough money, he was able to prepare a richer variety of betrothal gifts.
Originally, Xu Damao was going to give an auspicious number like 88 or 66 as a betrothal gift. Ran's parents were very happy to hear that. However, their family was a scholarly family, and it was not appropriate to ask for so much money at once. So they asked Ran Qiuye to persuade Xu Damao to give a normal amount.
When getting married, let Ran Qiuye take all the gift money to her husband's family. This will not only save Nan Fang's face, but also prevent her daughter from being looked down upon by her husband's family. She is indeed a cultured and particular person.
Finally, under Ran Qiuye's persuasion, Xu Damao prepared a betrothal gift of 20 yuan. He did not ask Qiuye's family for their opinions on other things and carried out everything according to high standards.
He Lin asked for leave from the factory in advance, and went to the Ran family to propose marriage early in the morning with his third uncle and Xu Damao.
He Lin felt that he was not the right person to do this, but in order to boost Xu Damao's reputation, he just pretended to be an elephant.
Yan Bugui and Ran Qiuye are colleagues. Ran's parents have naturally met each other before, but they feel a little unfamiliar with the young man next to them, so Xu Damao quickly introduced him.
"Uncle and aunt, this is He Lin, the technical director of our factory, and also my Damao's good brother. Today he is here to propose marriage for me on behalf of the steel rolling mill. Director He enjoys the treatment of deputy director in the factory."
Xu Damao praised He Lin without blushing or beating his heart, which made He Lin feel embarrassed. Do you really need to tell me the salary of the deputy factory director? It's as if you are showing off to me.
"Da Mao is exaggerating. I am just responsible for some technical work. Today I am here to propose marriage on behalf of my good brother. If there is anything I am not well prepared for, please give me some advice."
Ran's parents had heard Ran Qiuye talk about He Lin, and they were very curious about this man who became the technical director of a large state-owned factory at the age of 20. When they met him today, they found that he was indeed extraordinary and even his words were very thoughtful.
All the preliminary work has been done, and the betrothal gifts prepared by Xu Damao are extremely rich, and no one can complain about them. All that remains is to go through the formalities.
Ran's parents also prepared a dinner of four dishes and one soup. Although there were not many dishes and the taste was not as good as the casual dinner that He Lin had at home, it was still a thoughtful gesture.
After all, every family is living a tight life these days, and some ingredients may not be available every day even if you spend money. Being able to prepare a banquet with four dishes and a soup is considered a good one.
When Xu Damao came, he brought several bottles of Fenjiu, and he opened a bottle on the spot. He Lin took today's business into consideration and did not let Xu Damao drink. This guy drinks a lot, and if he falls down after drinking, it would be a fool of himself.
Xu Damao also knew what was going on and knew He Lin's good intentions, so he toasted Ran's parents with a few glasses of tea instead of wine, and the marriage proposal ceremony ended here.
When they were in the courtyard, He Lin, Xu Damao and the Jia family didn't talk much. They didn't know that Liu Guangtian's wedding was next Sunday. Coincidentally, Xu Damao also scheduled his wedding date for next Sunday.
Originally, the third uncle should have heard about it, but because he received a thank-you gift from Xu Damao yesterday, the whole family locked the door tightly and had a big meal at home, so he didn't know the date of Liu Guangtian's wedding.
When they returned to the yard, they found that the wedding dates of the two families conflicted. Fortunately, Xu Damao planned to hold the wedding banquet in his parents' home in advance and did not plan to invite people from the Siheyuan to dinner. However, Lao Liu's family was holding the banquet in the Siheyuan, so there was no conflict in the banquet.
He Lin had a drink at Ran's house at noon and did not go to the factory in the afternoon. Everything has been on track recently and he can relax a little.
Taking advantage of his free time, He Lin has come up with a kind of medicinal porridge for beauty and skin care. Anyway, there are many girls in the family and cosmetics are still rare items at that time, so it is very good to be able to use food therapy for beauty.
Several people get off work and school at different times and take different routes. Today, Yang Xue was the first to come back.
As soon as I got home, I found He Lin cooking in the kitchen and immediately went over.
"Brother He Lin, it smells nice, what are you making?"
"This is the medicinal porridge I made specially for you. It can beautify your skin and remove toxins. It tastes really good. If you don't believe me, try it first."
Yang Xue served half a bowl and tasted it first. It was just as Lin said, fragrant and delicious.
I just don’t know if this medicinal porridge can be made specifically for myself.
