My mother didn't miss the opportunity to interrupt, "We can't wrong the child, we'll only get married once in a lifetime, we'll do what other people do.
We want the best wedding car and dowry.
If our daughter feels that this family is too shabby, we can buy a house in the county.
We can't wrong such a good daughter. "
Mother You said, "Sister-in-law, we don't need to be so particular!
If the two children are willing, we'll simplify everything based on the proper procedures.
As for the dowry, forget about it! "
Her mother insisted, "That won't do, sister. This is part of the procedure."
Mother You smiled, "Since you insist, that's fine.
Don't give too much, just a million or eight hundred thousand will do! "
Mother was instantly dumbfounded.
Mother You quickly smiled, "You're joking!
The dowry is just a formality, how about this, we'll let Zhao Long and You Meng pool the dowry money together, it's fine if they pool more, and it's fine if they pool less.
We'll use dowry as a form of dowry to give you back, what do you think, sister-in-law? "
His mother was obviously flattered. She smacked her lips and said, "What, what are we going to do about this?
Sis, you're too considerate of us!
To tell you the truth, before you guys came, I was in a difficult situation.
I was worried that you guys are the masters of a big family in Beijing, you definitely wouldn't care about the dowry of thirty or twenty thousand.
That's why Long Long's father and I got a loan certificate and prepared to take out a loan for their wedding.
You're saving so much, we … "
Mother You interrupted her, "Sister-in-law, no, no, in-law, remember my words, a marriage that's measured by money won't last long.
Your family's Zhao Long and our family's You Meng have been together for a few years, we're both very happy that they can get together.
I've also been through this, I feel that if feelings affect the family's finances or even life, then the losses outweigh the gains.
In-law, do you believe that even if we don't go through these procedures and let them travel and get married, my family's old man and I wouldn't have any objections?
We're not after the money, we're after Zhao Long.
You may not know this, but Zhao Long is a cadre that You Meng's father personally promoted. He is courageous and has a bright future. He is our old man's favorite general.
Both of us are very happy to have such a family of in-laws. "
His mother said, "You don't despise the countryside, don't despise Zhao Long's uneducated and penniless parents. Just based on this, I don't even dare to think about it.
Look at the current society. Girls all want to marry into a higher social class. With You Meng's looks and abilities, how high is the social class that you can't get?
Even in my wildest dreams, I never thought that I would be able to marry a good daughter like You Meng, even though our family is so poor and remote. "
Mother You smiled and said, "In-law, that's too much!
When one's children got married, regardless of whether it was the man or the woman, it was a matter of settling one's worries.
We should be happy.
However, you always say that you are unworthy and belittle yourself. That's not right.
The children are all here, and on behalf of Yumeng's father, I would like to express my opinion. When Yumeng marries into your family in the future, if there is anything wrong with her, please feel free to criticize and correct her.
You can just treat her as your own daughter. That's right! "
His mother hurriedly nodded. "Yes, yes.
A daughter-in-law is a daughter. She is no different from a biological daughter. "
Mother You turned her gaze to You Meng. "I also have a few requests for you. Filial piety is the most important.
You have to handle your relationship with your parents-in-law well.
If I hear that there is any unhappiness because of this, then don't blame me for being rude as your mother! "
You Meng's face flushed red. "Mom, what are you talking about? This is nothing. You are giving me a lesson first!
I understand what you are talking about. Can we talk about something else? "
Mother You said, "It is a little off-topic, haha.
Okay, Mom knows that you are embarrassed.
Since the date has been set, then both of us can start preparing and go through the procedures according to the scheduled time. "
Mother You Meng said, "Yes.
The eighth of February is almost here! "
Mother You said, "How about this? When they have officially settled the marriage, I will return to Beijing.
Let them stay here for now. "
Mother You Meng said, "Why not stay for a few more days?"
Mother You said: "I have to report the details to my family's old man.
He is busy with work, so the preparation time is a little rushed. "
To be exact, I didn't expect Mother You to announce this matter on the table. Moreover, the way you announced it seemed to be a little serious.
However, the efficiency is not bad. We have reached a consensus in such a short time.
I was born and raised in the countryside, so I know the bad customs of marriage in the countryside.
According to the current situation, young people in the countryside usually pay attention to ostentation when they get married. The phenomenon of extravagance and waste is quite serious.
You get married with a Toyota team, but he has to get married with a BMW.
The desire to compete with others in the countryside is quite strong. As long as someone starts, it will definitely become more and more intense.
There is a family in our village that is not particularly rich. Their child spent more than thirty thousand yuan on wedding photos alone.
In fact, how practical is it? It is just a few photos.
Mother You always thought that the rich and imposing in-law would be a person who pays attention to ostentation. She was also worried that You Meng and I would be seriously overspending when we get married. However, when the reality came out, I found that Mother You was actually so reasonable.
There was a kind of thrifty light shining on her.
I was also very moved. Not to mention a family head like You Meng, even if it was a normal village girl getting married, the girl would also want to use this opportunity to enrich her financial strength. She would ask for a large betrothal gift from the man and even negotiate the price as if she was selling her own daughter.
After we finished discussing this matter, You Meng and I also resolved one of our worries.
This meant that she was about to become my bride.
You Meng was both shy and curious about getting married. The next day after the two elders agreed on the date, we went to the Yellow River Beach to do our morning exercise. You Meng suddenly asked in the car: "Do you have a lot of clothes in the county?"
I said: "Yes, didn't you go there before?
What, do you want to buy clothes? "
You Meng said: "I don't want to buy.
I have clothes to wear.
That, is there a wedding dress shop? "
The silly me didn't understand the meaning of You Meng's words. I only replied: "Yes, there are a lot.
The styles are also quite complete.
You Meng said 'Oh' and didn't ask any more questions.
When we were about to reach the door, I carefully pondered over You Meng's words. Only then did I realize and secretly scold myself for being stupid.
Girls usually express their wishes in a more tactful way. You Meng asked me if there was a wedding dress shop, but in fact, the subtext was: Let's go to a wedding dress shop to look at wedding dresses.
Girls generally have a special feeling and yearning for wedding dresses.
I didn't understand You Meng's thoughts just now!
I quickly turned the car around and prepared to go to the county to take You Meng to look at wedding dresses.
You Meng was puzzled and asked: "What's going on? Where are we going?"
I smiled and said: "I'm taking you to the county to look at wedding dresses."
You Meng's face bloomed with a trace of surprise, but she said shyly: "You're so naughty!
Why are you so impatient! "
I secretly said in my heart: You're even more impatient than me, why are you still pretending!
On the way, You Meng's face was full of smiles.
But it seemed she didn't want me to pry into her thoughts. From time to time, she turned her head and looked out of the car window.
The car stopped in front of the biggest wedding dress shop in the county. I turned off the engine, pushed open the car door and went to You Meng's side. I opened the car door for her and waved my hand to make an inviting gesture: "Please, dear bride!"
You Meng complained with a red face: "What are you talking about!
Don't you feel ashamed? "
I gently held Yu Meng's arm, and she was half-willingly pulled out by me.
Although she looked forward to it, her face was covered with a red glow.
You Meng looked very shy. Looking at the dazzling array of wedding dresses, she was surprised and shy. She was curious and also pretended to be distant.
The salesperson recommended You Meng a red wedding dress: "Miss, you're so beautiful, this dress will definitely suit you."
You Meng blinked her beautiful big eyes: "Is, is it suitable?
Will it be too bright? "
The salesperson said with a smile: "Of course the wedding dress has to be bright. This is the only time in your life, so of course you have to show your best side to everyone!
Do you want to try it? "
You Meng slightly frowned and shook her head: "Forget it, forget it.
Red, this color is too bright. "
The salesperson said, "Being famous is a kind of meaning in itself.
Look at the picture. This wedding dress is from the mainland's movie star, Sun Xiaohong.
Take a look at the effect. "The salesperson pointed at the promotional poster on the wall.
You Meng looked at it and finally seemed to be moved a little.
She looked at me for help: "Then, I'll try it?"
I encouraged her: "Try it!
I think this dress is very suitable. "
You Meng trembled as she took the wedding dress into the fitting room. She struggled for five or six minutes before coming out.
The moment she appeared, even the salesperson was stunned!
"So beautiful!" She couldn't help but exclaim.
You Meng still looked shy. Although she was smiling, she was a little reserved.
After all, it was her first time wearing a wedding dress. Although she wanted to, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
I also praised: "Beautiful, you look good.
This dress is the one! "
You Meng walked in front of the mirror and looked back and forth. The redness on her face gradually deepened.
It didn't matter if she stood there, but many bridegrooms who came to the shop to accompany their fiancées couldn't help but stop and look.
The brides who were worried about which dress to choose no longer hesitated after seeing You Meng. They all asked the salesperson about the price of You Meng's wedding dress.
In just a short while, three sets of red wedding gowns were sold!
Even the salesperson was surprised. Seeing that You Meng was still hesitating in front of the mirror, she went forward to persuade her, "You are very beautiful in this wedding dress. You have seen that several brides made up their minds to buy this dress after seeing you in it.
You've become the spokesperson of our bridal shop! "
You Meng turned her head and asked: "How much is this dress?"
The salesperson showed five fingers: "It's not expensive, just five thousand renminbi."
You Meng stuck out her tongue: "Five thousand renminbi isn't expensive?
Forget it, a dress costs five thousand renminbi a day. It's not worth it. "
