The Era of Rebirth: Supermarket Space is Easy To Get Rich: Chapter 106 eighty-eight dollars
Chapter 106 Eighty-eight dollars
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you! I'll go to my niece's house this afternoon to ask my granddaughter, she should know when Yongsheng will be able to come back from vacation! I'll tell you when the time comes! I have to hurry up and get ready for the wedding supplies!" Lao Wang Married a daughter for the first time, married two daughters-in-law, and knew everything about his son's preparations for marriage.
"That's good! We'll just wait at home!" Old Niutou also felt relieved.
"Brother Wang, let's talk about the betrothal gift today! You guys have prepared it together! It's easy to go one by one!" Seeing that everything was agreed, the old cow woman only needed the betrothal gift, so she hurriedly brought it out.
"Ah...Okay, okay! Tell me!" Old Wangtou was a little slow to react for a moment, and said something stumbling.
Originally, he thought that after asking his son, the family would come to the door to formally discuss the matter of marriage, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually bring it up like this, and he couldn't do it if he didn't agree.
"Old Wangtou, my girl is one of the best girls in ten miles and eight villages. She is quick at work and educated. She can do housework since she was a child. She is a good hand at home and abroad. We have not contributed much to our family since we were raised. I'm married, to be honest, I'm a little bit sad!" The old bull started boasting a lot, praising the girl for her good looks and her quick work.
There is only one ultimate goal, which is to make it easier for Old Wangtou to accept the betrothal gift.
"Yes, yes, yes! We all know Yingying, she is a first-class good girl. It is a blessing from our ancestors to have such a girl in our stall!" Old Wang Tou responded.
But he was telling the truth, he really liked that little girl.
"Old Brother Wang! We have no choice but to see our girl and Yongsheng right, otherwise! Her aunt has introduced her to people from the city! They fell in love with our girl and said they would give her two hundred A gift of 1 yuan, but Yingying disagrees with life and death! You say this is a big deal!" The old cow woman also looked at her old man's eyes, and said loudly.
"Ah... this! Fate, fate!" The old Wangtou also sensed the signs. The two kept talking, but they didn't mention how much the bride price was, and he could still hear the medicine sold in the gourd. from.
"Isn't it just fate! We can't do anything, how can we, a rural family, pay so much money! So! We don't make it difficult for Old Brother Wang. If you want a gift, you can give it eighty-eight yuan. That's enough! This number is also auspicious!" Only then did the old woman say what she meant.
Eighty-eight yuan...
Old Wang was dumbfounded!
Eighty-eight yuan...
Li Xiuying who walked in from the outside was also dumbfounded.
Eighty-eight yuan...
Now I can marry two or three daughters-in-law, but what do people say?
Meaning, give me eighty-eight yuan!
It means that the eighty-eight yuan is because they didn't make things difficult for them!
What if it is difficult? How much do you want? I introduced that people in the city want to give 200 yuan, so do they also want 200 yuan?
"This... big brother, big sister, have you two already discussed it? Didn't you discuss the bride price of 88 yuan?" Old Wang was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and asked.
He married the eldest and second daughter-in-law without spending eighty-eight yuan in total! When it comes to the third child, I want so much!
It's not that he doesn't have savings, but it's not half of the eighty-eight yuan if he takes it all out. How can this be good?
"That's right! Eighty-eight yuan is very little. If Yongsheng works in the city, he can't afford it, right? Yongsheng told me that day. If the probationary period is over, it will cost thirty-five yuan a month." It’s one yuan! It’s only two or three months’ wages!” Seeing Lao Wang’s reaction, the old Niutou said with a smile.
"That's what you say, but we Yongsheng have only gone to work for a few days, and we can't get the money together for a while! Look, can we ask for less? Maybe we can save some money for the two children to buy wedding supplies. !” Li Xiuying stood on the ground and said nervously.
"Yes! Big brother, big sister, you see, we are all farmers... How can we afford so much money?" Old Wangtou also said.
"To be honest, it's because the two children see each other right. Otherwise, our family, Yingying, would have married in the city long ago! Don't talk about the 88 yuan gift, it's the 200 yuan gift and some extra money. A bicycle! This is eighty-eight yuan! Not much more!" The old cow gave a look, and the old woman understood it in seconds.
The two of them agreed at home that 80 yuan is the minimum bottom line, but after saying 88 yuan, the two of them don't want to drop it anymore.
"Old man, my meal is almost ready, let's eat first, this gift! Let's talk about it after Yongsheng comes back!" Li Xiuying finished talking to Lao Wangtou, and looked at Lao Niutou and his wife, "Is this okay? "
"Okay!" The old Niutou agreed with one word.
Anyway, their son must be Yingying, so I don't believe they won't come up with this betrothal gift!
"Okay! Then sit down for a while and my aunt will see if the meal is ready!" Li Xiuying glanced at Old Wang's head, with obvious meaning, and told him not to mention the dowry.
It was the same at first, they didn't even know what their son was thinking, or even whether his son was dating another girl, so it was too early to start talking about bride price.
Li Xiuying also worked quickly, and soon, white rice was served on the table. There was also a plate of fried potatoes and stewed shredded dried beans. There were sporadic pieces of meat in it.
The old Niu Tou and his wife were drooling watching.
How many years has it been since the couple had eaten this white rice? The few catties bought by tightening the belt also went into the mouths of the grandchildren, and the adults were reluctant to eat a mouthful.
This old Wang's family can actually eat dry rice! It's a good day!
How sad is it like the people in the village say?
However, I can eat rice, so I can’t afford eighty-eight yuan? Who will believe this?
Li Xiuying was also a little confused. She didn't turn the corner for a while, she was just happy that her son had a partner, and she entertained all the good things at home. After thinking about it, it was too late, she did everything, and then she did something else There was no time left, so she could only bite the bullet and take it out.
Old Niutou and his wife ate all the food without a care, and swallowed everything they ate with their tongues.
It was already almost noon when I sent people away, and the work would not be done, and there must be a lot of deduction for centimeters.
"Old man, let's not leave this job this afternoon, you go ask the team leader for leave! Let's go to our daughter's house and ask Xiaoxue when the milk powder factory will be on vacation, let Yongsheng come back and ask for clarification!" Li Xiuying sent people away Hurry up and put away the table, and don't forget to tell the old man.
"Okay! That's what I mean too! Let's go home quickly! You pack up, I'll ask for leave! Let's go!" The old man hurried out.
The old couple asked for leave, locked the door and hurried to the daughter's house. At this time, Bai Ruxue and the younger siblings were fighting with corn stalks in the field.
Tired and wheezing, but no one complained, no matter how tired I was, I didn't say rest, I just kept working.
