There is a space man in the village [Rebirth]

For Xiaobai's sake, Father Zhou didn't make a move in the end, he glared at the bastard who abducted his son, and then dragged him to say, 'Hurry up and prepare the dowry! ' before turning around and going home.

Father Zhou's tone was not very good, and he even had the illusion of resentment, but the subtext was obviously a promise to the marriage.

Huo Chengyi realized that his heart was like setting off fireworks, and he laughed by the river for a long time before going home humming a song and continuing to prepare for the marriage proposal.

Uncle Huo also sent Mrs. Xue over to help. The eldest nephew has indeed improved a lot since he saw Zhou's little brother. It's good to get married soon, and it's good to have a husband who takes care of him so as not to learn bad things again. Getting married is a good thing.

In terms of dowry, the Zhou family didn't make any special requirements. Except for Huo Chengyi's reminder of the necessary customs in the village, the Huo family's Xue family prepared everything by himself.

As for Aunt Miao, there is no movement for the time being, she should be thinking about it.

Huo Dashan didn't take the initiative to mention or ask, but when he saw Huo Chengyi tidy up an empty room and came out, he didn't say anything, but he lit a wormwood torch every day to smoke the moisture in the room.

Seeing it, Huo Chengyi couldn't help muttering a bit sullenly.

Regardless of other things for the time being, he has been busy with the dowry for nearly a week, pulling the ox cart in and out every day, and the villagers have long been curious.

Therefore, on the day when Huo Chengyi went to Zhou's family to propose marriage, many villagers who heard the news came over to watch the commotion.

Everyone knows that he has made a lot of money recently, and he seems to have bought a lot of things in the past few days. It is rare to have entertainment in the village, and everyone will go to see whoever proposes a marriage.

The villagers who watched the excitement followed behind. Uncle Huo and Zheng Shihai's family supported the venue and gave the dowry. Huo Chengyi led the way. The mighty team did not scare Zhou's father who was waiting at home to death.

If it weren't for the fact that everything on this bullock cart was covered with red cloth, and a matchmaker with red flowers followed, people who didn't know would think that he brought someone to make trouble!

"Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, please accept Cheng Yi's obeisance, I have come to propose marriage to your family, please ask Aunt and Uncle to marry Xiaobai to me."

Proposing a marriage is a major event in life, and it was rare for Huo Chengyi to speak seriously today.

In order to show his respect and sincerity, before entering Zhou's house, he brushed his clothes and knelt down and kowtowed.

The knees were squeaking sharply, and the heads were knocking loudly, full of sincerity.

But Father Zhou couldn't help twitching the corner of his mouth when he heard it. In front of the whole village, this guy did it so clearly that he had no reason to go back on his word...

But Zhou Dahua and the villagers didn't know about this guy's black guts. Seeing him kowtow and kneel with sincerity, they couldn't help being moved and praised.

"Hey, don't say that Daniel is actually pretty good, let's see which kid in the village proposes marriage as sincerely as him..."

"Isn't it? Look at the pile of things on the bullock cart..."

"Let's go, let's squeeze in front and see what Da Niu has given away..."

Everyone watched the lively discussion with great interest, Father Zhou also knew what kind of temper Huo Chengyi had.

Too lazy to entangle with this guy, stroked his beard, nodded and let him into the yard.

Because the girl and the younger brother cannot be present when the marriage is proposed, Xiaobai can only hide in the house, quietly open the window to peek, smiling sweetly and nervously.

Proposing marriage in the village is a custom that has been negotiated in advance, just to avoid the embarrassing rejection of the door-to-door. Since the parents and elders of both parties agree, the process of proposing marriage is very smooth.

Geng posts are exchanged, the date of marriage is fixed, and the dowry is sent out, the marriage is basically completed.

The villagers are tired of watching these processes. Anyway, everyone gets married like this. Everyone comes to see the fun mainly because of the dowry gift. This has basically become a custom. Everyone wants to see what kind of dowry gift someone gives.

One is to make noise and join in the festive excitement; the other is to save face, the bride price of the man is the face of the younger brother and the girl.

After getting married, wives and husbands are better than their husbands and value them.

Mrs. Xue had told Huo Chengyi about these things, and Huo Chengyi knew it well, so he also put some thought into the betrothal gift.

In addition to the poultry, cloth furniture, and various Qiaoguo pastries that are necessary for ordinary betrothal gifts, the betrothal money is increased to six taels.

In addition, there is also a set of ready-made wedding clothes. He has already experienced Xiaobai's show work. It is barely enough to embroider bamboo. It is simply difficult to embroider any mandarin duck and auspicious animals. Hurry up and get married.

All the betrothal gifts seemed average, but it wasn't that he was stingy. According to the village's marriage standard, three taels of silver was already a very good dowry amount, and six taels of silver would definitely not tarnish the face of the Zhou family.

In fact, these are only superficial things.

Although Huo Chengyi's behavior style is relatively rough and high-profile, he understands that it is better to be low-key if he is rich.

Another reason is that he has a lot of investments to make money at the moment, but he really doesn't have much cash, a total of more than 100 taels.

The dividends for the Chuan Chuan shop and the money for wine making have to wait until the end of the year, and then they need to buy soybeans. After the marriage proposal, they will get married, and they have to spend money everywhere, and the money is simply not enough.

Therefore, in addition to the ordinary dowry standard and six taels of dowry, Huo Chengyi also prepared some other things.

Five acres of land deeds, a masonry pocket watch he customized for his future lover as early as modern times, a set of gift porcelain bowls, and a Nepalese machete.

These things are worth a lot of money if they are exchanged for silver, but their true intentions and value cannot be estimated by silver, they are all prepared for the Zhou family's preferences.

All the things were hidden at the bottom of the cloth box, and the villagers couldn't see them. They would be able to find them when the Zhou family went back to check.

In addition, he had discussed with Uncle Huo about the conditions proposed by Father Zhou, and Uncle Huo also nodded.

"Brother Zhou, Daniel has told me all of your requests. This kid is dead-hearted, and I agree. In the future, the first boy of Daniel and Brother Bai will be named after your Zhou family. This is the government's cover." printed contract."

To be honest, Hawkingshui didn't really want to agree to this matter.

Daniu is also an only son, so the succession of the second room's incense depends on him. If the eldest nephew has only one son at that time, wouldn't Daniel be dead.

But Huo Chengyi insisted on this matter, only with different surnames, his son was still his son, and he was still raised by his side and called him father, with his blood running down his body, how could it be considered as an extinct one?

If it really counts, the real Huo Daniu is dead, and the second wife of the Huo family would have been extinct long ago.

These Huo Chengyi can't explain clearly to Uncle Huo that the concept of the times cannot be changed with a sentence or two.

So when everyone and Father Zhou heard this and saw him go to the government to stamp Ming Lu's contract, they were all stunned.

The heirs of incense and fire in ancient times valued so much, and Huo Daniu even agreed to such a condition. No one really valued it.

"Good boy..."

Even Zhou Dahua, who was big, couldn't hold back her eyes from turning red. Being able to give him an incense stick made her happier than any dowry gift.

Today's marriage proposal Huo Chengyi showed great sincerity and thoughtfulness, the worries of the two elders were completely put down, and they believed that he was serious.

The villagers who came to join in the fun had a lively discussion.

There are envy, jealousy and hatred, and I can't wait to go back in time and tell the Huo family about my daughter and brother.

Although the betrothal gift that Huo Chengyi showed everyone today was not very brilliant, at most it was good and good, but it was enviable enough for him to agree to give his son the Zhou family name.

Huo Daniu is so good at making money for the Zhou family's brother Bai who attaches so much importance to him, why can't he honor his father-in-law a lot in the future?At that time, what is a little dowry, this account is easy to calculate!

After mentioning their relatives and leaving, Zhou Dahua and his wife counted the betrothal gifts, only then did they know what Huo Chengyi's decision to marry their little brother was.

Although I don't know pocket watches, the craftsmanship of pocket watches is excellent, far beyond the craftsmanship of this era.

Even if the two old men have never seen the market, they can guess that the things are worth a lot, because the pocket watch case is made of pure gold, which is not counted as craftsmanship. How much is this gold worth?

Also, I don’t know what the shiny stone on it is. Maybe the glowing stone must be a gemstone, and the second hand that rotates by itself is amazing. I’m afraid it’s a treasure!

The two elders were shocked in their hearts. They thought that the dowry just now was enough, but they didn't expect that the big head was hidden inside.

In addition, the set of ceramic bowls and Nepalese machetes were delivered to the hearts of the two elders. It was obviously a betrothal gift for their son, but they gave them something they liked, which was really thoughtful.

It's just that the things are good, but they are really too expensive. The fine porcelain and forged sharp ironware are not cheap. Where did Huo Daniu get so much money?It's impossible to sell so many string recipes, right?

The two elders were puzzled and startled, "Huo, wasn't Huo Daniu very poor before?", not only poor, but also a well-known poor household in the village.

"Brother Huo said that he dug up treasures in the mountains before, and the skewer recipe came from it, so these must be..."

Zhou Weibai had already listened to Huo Chengyi's explanation, and answered his parents' doubts.

But Father Zhou was startled again when he heard it, "I found the treasure! He, he even told you this?"

It's not uncommon to find a treasure and tell your husband and wife, but before getting engaged, Xiaobai and Huo Daniu hadn't written off their characters, so that guy believed Xiaobai so much?

"That's right, Brother Huo told me everything, and he didn't actually sell the Chuan Chuan formula. He and Fatty Jiang jointly opened the store in the town. After that, there will be dividends every month, saying that it is our family's fixed. To make a living, let me take care of the money at home, and take me with you when you go out to discuss business, he said he likes me."

Zhou Weibai nodded happily, and his tone was a bit ostentatious.

In the past, if Zhou Dahua had to go up and give her a slap in the face, she would hate iron for being weak, and she would be 'our family' right after getting married!

But today, the two elders have nothing to refute. What Huo Chengyi has done can't be measured, but he is trying to express his heart.

You look at me, I look at you, the two elders only have deep helplessness and complicated gratification, the little brother who has been raised for more than ten years has been raped like this, really want to kill someone...
