Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

After answering the phone, Hao Liang walked to the door of the yard and said to his uncle who was talking to the villagers who came to watch the excitement. "Uncle, Mengmeng's parents are already here, and they are all at the entrance of the village now."

"Here we come. Come on, please, please take all the fireworks and firecrackers you bought outside and put them away. If you see people, help light them." The uncle took out the cigarette and shared one with the villagers who were watching the excitement.

Circle said.

The villagers did not refuse, took the cigarettes, and helped take out the fireworks and firecrackers. They placed them on the road in Hao Liang's yard.

After a while, Meng Mengdi followed her parents to guide them and walked over together.

When the villagers saw Meng Mengdi and his parents coming, they lit all the fireworks. Meng Mengdi's parents also stopped.

When the fireworks and firecrackers went out, the uncle walked quickly to Meng Mengdi's father and said to Meng Mengdi's father.

"Mengmeng's father, I am Hao Liang's uncle. Come and sit inside."

"This is too polite. We are here to take a look today, so let's go in together."

When they arrived at the house, Zhang Fei and his cousin, who were already helping Hao Liang's house, and Meng Mengdi's aunt, aunt, and aunt sat down and came up with sugar and tea. A cup was placed in front of everyone.

When the relatives of Mengmengdi's family saw a foreigner, they were also stunned for a moment. The uncle smiled and said to Mengmengdi's father and the others.

"These are my goddaughter and my daughter. They are here to help today too."

After taking a sip, a relative from Mengmengdi's family came over and pretended to look around at Hao Liang's house. He said some nice words and sat down again.

"Mengmeng, do you think you are married? Didn't you ask me to be your bridesmaid?" Zhang Fei came to Mengmeng and asked.

"No, this is just the beginning of the process. Hao Liang and the others will go to my house tomorrow for matchmaking." Meng Mengdi replied in a low voice.

"Oh, it's so troublesome. What about the betrothal gift? Hao Liang is so rich, how much betrothal gift will he give you?" Zhang Fei asked in a low voice.

"You are a foreigner and you are thinking about the bride price every day. You are shouting to find a Chinese husband every day, but I don't see you looking for one." Meng Mengdi replied angrily.

"I'm not being exploited by you. Just like Ding Meili, I don't even have time to find a boyfriend. Next year, next year I will definitely marry myself out. A second marriage is fine, as long as the gift is large." Zhang Fei said that he also wanted to get married.

Laughed.

After lunch, Hao Liang's aunts and uncles all took out a red envelope and handed it to Meng Mengdi. The cousin also took one out.

"Sister, where is Xuanxuan? Why didn't she come over?" Meng Mengdi asked as she took the red envelope from her cousin.

"I'm making up some extra lessons. She will be in her third year of junior high school soon. She will take the high school entrance exam next year, so there is still time for her to play." My cousin replied.

"Well, sister, last time Xuanxuan came to see me, she said she was very tired, so don't push her too hard. Xuanxuan has worked hard enough since she was a child."

"She's studying. What's the point of being tired? What's the point of not studying? Just leave her alone. You sit down for a while and I'll go to the kitchen to wash the dishes." The cousin said and left.

When it was past one o'clock, Meng Mengdi's father answered a phone call. After taking a sip of tea, he put down the cup and said to Hao Liang's uncle.

"Uncle Hao Liang, ask someone to come to my house tomorrow. We will pick a date after we have agreed. We will go back first. The master who just drove the car called and said that he has arrived at the entrance of the village."

"Okay, let's come over tomorrow." The uncle said after getting up.

When Meng Mengdi's father heard that his uncle had agreed, he called his relatives and left. After the uncle arrived at the door, he returned home and said to Hao Liang.

"Hao Liang, find a matchmaker tomorrow and go to Mengmeng's house with your mother. Let's talk about the bride price and decide on the wedding. Then pick a date to get married."

When Hao Liang heard his uncle's words, he suddenly couldn't react and asked, confused.

"Ah, it's so quick. We have to go and make an appointment tomorrow. Our engagement party hasn't been held yet."

"What kind of engagement party? Even if it's an engagement party today, Mengmeng also received a red envelope."

"Uncle, who would you like to find as a matchmaker? I don't understand this," Hao Liang said calmly.

"If your father were here, it would be appropriate for me to be a matchmaker. But since your father is gone, I can't be a matchmaker. Why don't you ask your uncle if he is free tomorrow?"

Hao Liang nodded and walked to his aunt who was chatting. He asked her, "Auntie, I don't know if uncle will be free tomorrow. Come with me to Mengmeng's house tomorrow."

"I'm free, I'm free. I'll ask your uncle to come over early tomorrow morning." The aunt who had already got the money said quickly.

"Her aunt, this matter has troubled her uncle. When she gets married, she will give her the hooves, cigarettes, and red envelopes." The uncle walked over and said.

"This is a happy thing. Let's go back first. I'll ask his uncle to come over tomorrow." The aunt said with a smile.

"Bring the return gift." Hao Liang's mother came over and handed the bag containing the return gift to her aunt and others.

When Meng Mengdi's family returned home, Meng Mengdi's aunt said to Meng Mengdi's mother.

"This Mengmeng has chosen to live in a rural area, and she doesn't have a father at home, and her mother seems to be in poor health. She won't have much support after getting married, and she's a burden. It's hard to get married."

As soon as Meng Mengdi's aunt finished speaking, one of Meng Mengdi's aunts spoke up.

"Sister-in-law, I think their family is quite good. Hao Liang's child is more mature and stable. Mengmeng will also take care of Mengmeng after she gets married."

"What's the use of being prudent? His Hao Liang looks at it this way, he's not worthy of our Mengmeng. I think, let Mengmeng return the red envelope tomorrow and forget about this marriage."

"Her aunt was chosen by Mengmeng herself. My brother and sister-in-law also agreed. Why are you so excited? I also think that Hao Liang's child is quite good." One of Meng Mengdi's aunts said in disapproval.

"Auntie, isn't this for Mengmeng? My nephew is sincere to Mengmeng. He still has a house in the city. Opening a restaurant is no better than Hao Liang."

When Meng Mengdi heard what her aunt wanted to say, she quickly pulled her mother's clothes. Meng Mengdi's mother said to Meng Mengdi's aunt.

"Brothers and sisters, my Mengmeng has already been married to someone else. Please stop talking about it. If word spreads, it will bring bad reputation to our Mengmeng."

"Forget it, forget it, I won't say anything anymore, I'm going back first." Meng Mengdi's aunt replied after getting up.

"Brothers and sisters, please come over again tomorrow. Hao Liang's family will come over tomorrow and call my brother too. He is the uncle and this matchmaker wants him to be the matchmaker." Meng Mengdi's mother said to Meng Mengdi's aunt who was about to leave.

said.

"I know, let's come back tomorrow. Let's go back first," Meng Mengdi's aunt replied.

The next morning, Hao Liang drove his mother and uncle to the downstairs of Meng Mengdi's house.

Hao Liang wanted to go up directly, but his uncle stopped him and stopped him downstairs.

After a while, several relatives of Mengmengdi's family came down with fireworks. After setting off, Hao Liang's uncle said to Hao Liang.

"Hao Liang, take out the cigarettes and divide them. Let's go up again."

After hearing his uncle's words, Hao Liang took two more cigarettes from the car and handed them to his uncle. He opened a pack and spread them around to the residents who came to watch.

The uncle put two pieces of Chinese cigarettes under his arm and waited for Zhong Yi to disperse the smoke before following the relatives from Meng Mengdi's family up. Hao Liang and his mother also followed behind the uncle.

When he got to the door, the uncle didn't know where he learned it from. He stood at the door and shouted, "Today, I brought my nephew Hao Liang to the Meng Mansion to propose marriage. I hope your manor can marry your daughter."

"Come in." Uncle Meng Mengdi in the room responded.

Uncle Hao Liang then took Hao Liang into Meng Mengdi's house. He handed the cigarette to Uncle Meng Mengdi's hand.

"Sit, sit, just think about it. Drink tea." Meng Mengdi's father said to Hao Liang and the others with a smile.

After lunch, Meng Mengdi's father looked at Meng Mengdi who was sitting with Hao Liang, took a sip of tea and said.

"We have already decided on the marriage. All we have to do is give you the gift."

"My father-in-law, please decide on a number. How much for the first betrothal, how much for the second betrothal, and how much will be the door gift?" Hao Liang's mother asked.

"It doesn't have to be so complicated. The first hire is 8,800, the second hire is 88,000, and the doorstep is 20,000. We will let Mengmeng take the money back, and we will pay for the drinks ourselves." Meng Mengdi's father said what he had discussed with Meng Mengdi's mother yesterday.
