Shen Zhihuan and Su Lili whispered a few words and then went back to their rooms to sleep.
Unexpectedly, the real wise man was already on the train back to Sichuan City.
"mother."
After learning that Shen Zhihuan was going back to Panshi Village to host a wedding banquet, Shen Zhilan immediately thought of the betrothal gift.
Let’s not talk about whether the short-lived ghost can have children. Let’s just say that she can earn hundreds of dollars a month by writing articles. If the old Su family marries the short-lived ghost into their home, they are undoubtedly catching an old hen that can only lay golden eggs. go home.
The old Su family didn't give him a gift of five or six thousand, so he was embarrassed.
The whole family was crowded together on the way back to Sichuan City, and she could never find a suitable opportunity to talk to her mother alone.
Now seeing Li Qiuhua going to the toilet, Shen Zhilan quickly handed her sleeping son to her husband Yang Zhongyi and ran after him.
Yang Zhongyi patted his son who was groaning because of the sudden change of arms, frowned and glanced at Shen Zhilan's anxious back.
Shen Xiaoqing, who was sitting on the other side, curled her lips slightly when she heard the movement beside her.
When Li Qiuhua heard her daughter calling her, she turned around and looked at her second daughter, who was running to catch up with her. "What's wrong? Do you want to go to the toilet too?"
Shen Zhilan blinked at Li Qiuhua, then looked at the direction of the toilet, and motioned for Li Qiuhua to go in before talking.
Although Li Qiuhua was a little confused, he didn't say anything more and followed into the toilet.
Although it is a direct-discharge toilet, there are many people on the train and there are many people who have easy access to the toilet. Once the door is closed, the smell is overwhelming.
Shen Zhilan frowned in disgust.
"What's going on?" Li Qiuhua couldn't bear the smell.
"Mom, have you heard how much gift the old Su family gave our family?" Shen Zhilan whispered.
Li Qiuhua shook his head.
She had only heard from others about the wedding banquet. Where could she find out how much the old Su family would give as a gift.
Shen Zhilan gritted his teeth.
She knew it.
Is it easy for your mother to raise that short-lived ghost? She actually didn't even notify her mother and father in order to pay a betrothal gift.
"Mom, Zhihuan earns so much money in a month. It is his family's blessing that she can marry him. We can't ask for less betrothal gifts." Shen Zhilan raised her voice in fear of being heard by people passing by. Very light.
"We ask for...betrothal gifts ourselves?" Li Qiuhua looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid that's not good!"
She is marrying her daughter, not selling her daughter.
How could you open your mouth and ask the old Su family for a betrothal gift? !
Besides, Zhihuan and Su Ziyu’s marriage certificates have already been lost.
Even if she opens her mouth and asks for it, the old Su family may not be able to give it to her.
By then, it would have been an ugly scene.
Shen Zhilan frowned, "It's natural to ask for a betrothal gift when marrying a girl, what's wrong with that?! If we didn't mention the betrothal gift, then the old Su family would think that we, the old Shen family, wanted to have this marriage with shame! "
"After this, when Zhihuan enters the door of his old Su's house, he must not be called a worthless loser! Mother, you can't be so stupid!"
"Then how much do we need as a betrothal gift?" Li Qiuhua was unsure.
"I think it's at least this number." Shen Zhilan spread his right hand.
"Five hundred!" Li Qiuhua was shocked.
These days, most people give a bride price of one hundred and eighty yuan. For families with slightly better conditions, a bride price of two or three hundred yuan is considered too much.
five hundred…
She has never seen anyone dare to ask for such colorful gifts.
"It's not five hundred, it's five...thousand!" Shen Zhilan resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Five hundred, more? !
Her mother is really promising!
That short-lived ghost earns more than this amount from writing articles in a month. Isn't she stupid to ask the old Su family for this amount?
"Five thousand!" Li Qiuhua exclaimed.
Shen Zhilan gently tugged at the corner of Li Qiuhua's clothes, signaling her to keep her voice down.
"Zhilan, do you know what you are talking about?" Li Qiuhua felt that Shen Zhilan was really crazy.
five thousand…
Whose family can afford five thousand these days? !
Don't say whether you can get it or not, just if you can get it, who would give a daughter-in-law a gift of five thousand? ?
Inlaid with gold? !
Shen Zhilan: "Mom, Zhihuan can earn several hundred a month by writing articles. Have you forgotten? We only need a few hundred as a gift. People in the village are still not allowed to say that Zhihuan paid it to the old Su family. Ah! How will Zhihuan gain a foothold in the old Su family?"
Li Qiuhua frowned and thought for a while.
"But isn't five thousand too much? Can Su Changjiang and Zhang Fengxia agree?"
The key is, can Su Changjiang and Zhang Fengxia get 5,000? !
Five thousand, not five hundred.
If you don’t have five hundred, you can still borrow some from relatives and friends.
five thousand…
Who can lend me five thousand? !
"More, Zhihuan earns more than 5,000 yuan a year from writing articles. After she enters the old Su family, won't all the money she earns in the future belong to the old Su family?" Shen Zhilan began to give Li Qiuhua some ideas. Work.
That short-lived ghost didn't even return home, let alone get money from home.
There is such a great opportunity now…
"What if the old Su family doesn't have that much money?" Li Qiuhua frowned, still hesitant.
You can't mess up the wedding just for a gift of five thousand yuan!
"The old Su family doesn't have it, but Su Ziyu does! I heard from Xiaoqing that the monthly salary of a leader at Su Ziyu's level is more than one hundred. On weekdays, when he goes on a mission, he also gets any allowances, subsidies, etc. It doesn't add up. Young and old!”
If it hadn't been for the tomboy, she wouldn't have known that a poor soldier could earn such a high salary.
Even if he earns two hundred a month, that would be two thousand four a year.
A betrothal gift of five thousand and a little more than two years' salary is enough.
Moreover, that short-lived ghost can earn a lot from writing articles in a month.
Asking him for five thousand was already cheap enough.
"More than a hundred? A month?" Li Qiuhua's eyes widened suddenly.
"Yes! The monthly salary is more than 100, and when people go on missions, they also get allowances, subsidies, etc. You have money!" Shen Zhilan took a deep breath and said patiently.
Li Qiuhua was startled, unable to digest what he heard.
Shen Jianguo's salary is only 60 a month. Su Ziyu is so young and can earn more than 100 a month. What kind of allowances and subsidies are there...
Two days ago, she heard from Mr. Shen and Shen Jianguo that the superiors intended to promote Su Ziyu to another level.
If this is raised to another level, will the salary also have to increase...
"But...we want too much at once. Will the villagers say that our old Shen family is selling their daughters!?" Li Qiuhua wrung his fingers, hesitant.
It’s too unpleasant to hear this spread out!
"What does it mean to sell a girl? Our Zhihuan is already worth so much money. Have they ever seen any girl earn hundreds of dollars a month?"
If Shen Zhilan heard this, Shen Zhihuan would definitely have to ask, why did Shen Zhilan sell it so cheaply when she got married?
Is it because the price of pork is not high, or is it because dog meat is not available on the market?
