Chapter 1404 Breaking off the Engagement 53
"Er Ya, tell Yuan Dong that I know his family's conditions well. It doesn't matter how much the betrothal gift is, just a few dollars will do. That's what I mean. My family is not selling our daughter, but if Taohua marries him, the boy must treat her well. This is my only hope."
"Oh, look at what you said. You don't have a mother-in-law to pressure you. You have Yuandong to pamper you. Your Taohua will fall into a blessed nest when she marries in. You can just wait to enjoy the blessing of a young couple."
The two also discussed the engagement date for their two children.
Zhang Erya said, "Yuan Dong will be back to the county town the day after tomorrow, so let's get this done tomorrow. Your two families can have a meal together and decide on the betrothal money and wedding date."
Zhang Erniu was worried that if things were delayed for too long, Yuan Dong, this good son-in-law, would be snatched away by someone else, so she immediately agreed, "Then do it at my house."
"How can this be done at the woman's home?"
"Nothing, there's just a wall between our two houses. We can just carve a door in that wall and we'll be like one family. My family has some seafood saved up, so it won't cost much to cook a few dishes."
Zhang Erniu was efficient and efficient. Zhang Erya said, "Then I have to ask Yuanchun and Yuandong for their opinions first."
"It's okay to ask."
If the son-in-law doesn't want to hold the wedding at the woman's house, then she will get up early tomorrow and take her son, daughter-in-law and old man to help next door.
Yuanchun and her husband are getting married today. As an experienced person, she understands that young people will stay up very late on their wedding night, and the couple will definitely not be able to get up tomorrow morning.
Yuandong is a grown up guy and he will definitely be overwhelmed.
After the two of them had talked it over, they went to the kitchen to help clean up, clearing the table and the dishes. Then the guests who had come to the wedding left one after another.
In the evening, Yuanchun had a wonderful wedding night.
Huo Min was not only tall, but also had a big thing, and he was very strong. He tossed Yuanchun over and over until almost dawn, and then the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
It was almost noon when I woke up.
The two of them hurriedly got up, washed, put on new clothes, and went to Wang's house.
The engagement banquet of Shen Yuandong and Taohua was held at Wang's house with the consent of Yuanchun and Yuandong, but the food was provided by the Shen's family, after all, Yuanchun's family had more food.
In order to attach importance to his brother-in-law's engagement party, Huo Min specially asked Wang Hongwei to go to the black market overnight and bring back five pounds of pork belly and two old hens to send to the Wang family.
Brought back another ladies watch.
This was Yuanchun's instruction. It was the love gift that Shen Yuandong wanted to give to Taohua.
There are also four boxes of gifts, including cakes, brown sugar, malted milk, and canned food. These are the gifts Shen Yuandong brought to his parents-in-law's house.
As the eldest sister-in-law who was getting married, Yuanchun could not come empty-handed. She took the new dress and shirt she had made for Taohua, and found a pair of small leather shoes and a tweed coat from the space.
Huo Min was carrying a large bag of fruit candies and a large bag of fruit.
When the couple arrived at Wang's house, most of the dishes were ready.
Seeing the two people's blushing faces, Zhang Erya joked, "Oh, the young couple finally showed up. Hahahaha, Yuanchun girl, come and sit down. We are waiting for you."
The engagement banquet is actually a meal where the two families get together to discuss the bride price, and then Zhang Erya, the matchmaker, sets the wedding date.
As for the betrothal money, Zhang Erniu still said, "Just give a few dollars. My Wang family is marrying off our daughter, not selling her. It doesn't matter how much the betrothal money is, as long as Yuandong treats Taohua well in the future."
Yuanchun smiled and said, "Taohua is so good, how can Yuandong and I bear to let her down? Whatever others have, she must have too."
