Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent
Chapter 625: Betrothal Gift
When the uncle and Hao Liang's mother heard that Meng Mengdi's father was asking for a small amount of money as a gift, they both didn't believe that it would only be such a small amount. Before Meng Mengdi's mother could speak, Aunt Meng Mengdi spoke first.
"Brother-in-law, what time is it now? Now the first hire is 66,000 yuan, and the second hire is not 288,000 yuan."
"Brother, I also think it should be done as normal, otherwise your family will not look good. Besides, let's make a show of this money and return it immediately. The Hao Liang family can't take it out right away, so they can borrow it first to save their face." Meng Mengdi
My aunt also said from the side.
Meng Mengdi's father looked at Meng Mengdi's mother with some embarrassment. If the bride price was so large, the dowry would be even more.
Really assuming that the first betrothal is 66,000 yuan and the second betrothal is 288,000 yuan, the dowry would be at least more than 500,000 yuan. This daughter cannot afford to marry.
Hao Liang saw that Meng Mengdi's father was a little embarrassed and said a few words in Meng Mengdi's ear. Meng Mengdi ran to her mother's ear and said a few more words.
Meng Mengdi's mother nodded to Meng Mengdi's father. Meng Mengdi's father said.
"Originally, I thought it would be fine for the two of them to live a good life on their own, so let's do it normally. My mother-in-law, what do you think?"
"Our family has no objection. Mengmeng is such a good child, and a little more is worth it. This is the price of a marriage."
Hao Liang's mother took her bag, took out the 88,000 yuan that Hao Liang had prepared for her yesterday, and put it on the table.
After Meng Mengdi's mother looked at the money, she said directly to Hao Liang's mother, "My mother-in-law, sixty-six thousand is enough."
"It's been taken out, and you can't put it back. In-laws, you have raised a good daughter, please accept it." Hao Liang's mother said.
Seeing what Hao Liang's mother said, Meng Mengdi's mother said to Meng Mengdi, "Mengmeng, we won't take this money, you will keep it yourself. You will also keep the money for the second betrothal next time."
"Oh." Meng Mengdi responded, ran over, took the money in her hand, and started counting it out of habit.
"Mengmeng, what does it look like?" Meng Mengdi's mother said to Meng Mengdi when she saw her counting money.
Meng Mengdi was scolded by her mother and noticed something was wrong, so she immediately explained with a blushing face.
"Habit, habit! I work in a company and I'm used to counting the money I get."
Then he took the money and went back to his room.
The relatives of Meng Mengdi's family looked at Meng Mengdi's actions and laughed. Meng Mengdi's aunt said with a smile.
"My family has a good dream, and I will manage money in the future."
"Yes, yes, Mengmeng knows how to manage money. It looks like she can be a good homemaker." Hao Liang's mother responded with a smile.
At this time, Mengmengdi's father took out a piece of red paper from his pocket, handed it to Hao Liang's mother and said, "This is Mengmeng's birth date. Take it back and choose a date."
"Well, let's pick a good day and we'll send Erpin over. We'll go back first."
"Mengmeng, your mother-in-law is leaving, you come out to see her off." Meng Mengdi's mother shouted to Meng Mengdi who was still hiding money in the room.
"Oh, Mom, uncle, you left so quickly." Meng Mengdi came out and said to Hao Liang's mother and the others.
"Well, let's go back first. Remember to come home when you have time." Hao Liang's mother said, holding Meng Mengdi's hand.
"Well, I'll be here in two days." Meng Mengdi nodded.
After Hao Liang and the others left, Meng Mengdi's aunt asked Meng Mengdi's father, "Brother, what does Hao Liang's family do? I saw that the car he drove was a Mercedes-Benz, and the price of that car was not cheap. We are already engaged, you
He didn't tell us what he did..."
"Hao Liang starts a small business by himself. As long as the two children are well," Meng Mengdi's father said perfunctorily.
According to Meng Mengdi's mother, it's best not to say anything. These relatives in the province asked Hao Liang for help and put Hao Liang in trouble.
The relatives of Meng Mengdi's family sat for a while and then went back.
After waiting for Meng Mengdi's family to leave cordially, Meng Mengdi's mother said to Meng Mengdi.
"Mengmeng, our family can't give you that much money for your dowry. Your father and I have collected 100,000 yuan for you as a wedding gift, and prepared a 60,000 yuan dowry for you. Next time the betrothal gift comes,
You keep it yourself. We don’t want any of it.”
"Mom, no need, I have money here. Hao Liang just told me, you can just keep the gift. It doesn't matter what the dowry is."
"What are you leaving behind? If our family really left your bride price, you would still hold your head high at your husband's house, silly boy." Meng Mengdi's mother smiled and pointed at Meng Mengdi's head.
After returning home, Hao Liang was dragged by his uncle to pick a date the next day.
When I arrived at the fortune teller, I gave the fortune teller Meng Mengdi's birth date and Hao Liang's birth date.
The fortune teller muttered a few words and wrote a note to Uncle Hao Liang. Hao Liang glanced at it secretly and saw that it was the day he and Meng Mengdi were getting married, the second day of the National Day holiday.
It also writes the time to invite Bodhisattvas, ancestors, make beds, and worship in the hall. It is very detailed.
The uncle took the note and handed it to the fortune teller two hundred yuan, then handed the note to Hao Liang and warned.
"Put this note away. Don't lose it. Next time you go to Mengmeng's house to give gifts, this note should be given to her parents."
Hao Liang took the note, folded it, put it in his wallet, and asked his uncle, "When will the betrothal gifts for the second betrothal be sent?"
"It'll take a few days. I need to prepare some things. It doesn't look good to go there with bare money. Your mother and I will start buying tomorrow."
Hao Liang talked to her uncle and drove back.
Hao Liang also stayed at home for a few days. On the last day of the long holiday, Hao Liang went to Meng Mengdi's house to give the second betrothal gift. He handed the note from the fortune teller to Meng Mengdi's father.
Meng Mengdi's parents passed the betrothal gift and handed it directly to Meng Mengdi in front of Hao Liang and his uncle. They said to Uncle Hao Liang.
"His uncle, the lives of the two children have also been decided. From now on, they will be considered a family. We will return all the money to the young couple."
Hao Liang's uncle also understood what Meng Mengdi's father meant. He directly said that the bride price was just for sitting down and would not accept it at all. The uncle also quickly expressed his position.
"In-laws, I also understand what you mean. It is my family's blessing that Mengmeng can marry into my family. It is the virtue of my family. Don't worry, if Mengmeng suffers a little loss in our family, I will break A Liang's legs. I will kneel to you.
Please forgive me at the doorstep."
"Hao Liang is a good child. He has been taking care of Mengmeng for so many years. It was Hao Liang who helped Mengmeng to go to college. I believe they will get better."
Hao Liang also knew at this time that it was time to express his position, and said to Meng Mengdi's parents.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will treat Mengmeng well. I will not let her be wronged."
"Hao Liang, I only have two daughters. We won't mention the past things. When you come back in the future, you don't need to give us money. We can still earn by ourselves now and we will have pensions when we are old. But every time you come, bring some
Bring your things back. Empty boxes are also fine."
As soon as Meng Mengdi's mother finished speaking, Meng Mengdi said, "Mom, what are you talking about? It's an empty box. I don't bring you gifts every time I come back."
"You don't know. I gave birth to two daughters before, and I was told for a long time that I had no one to support me when I was old. I just let them take care of me, your mother."
"Mom, don't worry. You have a pension. You can have a pension as long as you want. I will support you in your old age. Don't worry." Hao Liang agreed quickly.
"My mother-in-law, don't worry. From now on, Hao Liang will be considered a son and he will provide for you until you die. I mean, once the marriage is finalized, let the two children get the certificates."
"Well, when I go back later, I will give the household registration book to Mengmeng and ask the two of them to get the certificate tomorrow." Meng Mengdi's mother glanced at Meng Mengdi and said.
After lunch, Hao Liang stayed at Meng Mengdi's house for a while and then said goodbye to his uncle. This time Meng Meng also took the household registration book given by his mother and went back to Hao Liang's house with Hao Liang.
At night, Meng Mengdi and Hao Liang were lying on the bed, looking at the household registration booklet given by her mother back and forth, and said to Hao Liang.
"Hao Liang, we are really going to get the certificate tomorrow. I feel so sudden."
"If you don't want to take it, we won't take it." Hao Liang hugged Meng Mengdi and said.
"Who said it, of course you have to get it. Once you get the certificate, you will be mine from now on. No one can try to take it away. Not even if my sister Meng Wendi comes back."
"Don't worry, we will be together in this life. We will never be separated."
"You mean you want to find someone else in the next life, right? You will be mine in the next life too. And in the next life, I will find you as soon as possible." Meng Mengdi put her household registration book aside and hugged Hao Liang and said.
