Siheyuan: Jie Hu Lou Xiao'e

Chapter 53 Engagement

As long as Su Ci has free time these days, he just stays in the virtual space to plant crops. He doesn't pay attention to anything that happens in the outside world, except for his date with Lou Xiao'e.

Recently, he went to the black market a few more times to purchase some fruit and vegetable seeds, and vigorously developed his fruit and vegetable base.

At the same time, Liu Guangtian and his two brothers sold batch after batch of rabbits, chickens, ducks, etc., and soon accumulated another sum of money.

After all, it costs money to get engaged in a big hotel, it also costs money to host a wedding banquet, and there is also the indispensable betrothal money. Thinking of these, Su Ci worked even harder.

The time soon arrived on the auspicious day chosen by Lou’s father and Lou’s mother.

Capital Hotel.

Su Ci was very happy today. Wearing a suit, leather shoes, and tie, she stood energetically with Lou Xiao'e, Lou's father, and Lou's mother at the door of the hotel to greet relatives and friends.

Lou Xiao'e also wore a brand new skirt and dressed up carefully.

Su Ci's comrades-in-arms and Lou Xiao'e's friends gathered together at a table, and the rest of the tables were filled with relatives of the Lou family.

Witnessed by relatives and friends, the engagement ceremony began in a lively manner.

Lou's father and Lou's mother took Su Ci and Lou Xiao'e to toast to everyone at each table, so that everyone could get to know their Lou family's son-in-law.

After the toast, everyone took their seats.

"I am very happy that everyone came to attend the engagement ceremony of my family Xiao'e and Su Ci. I feel very happy now. I hope that under everyone's witness, they can live a happy life. I also hope that all the relatives and friends sitting here are in good health.

, Good luck in your career, thank you all!" Father Lou raised his wine glass slightly excitedly and finished speaking to everyone.

"Congratulations..." There were voices full of blessings all around.

The scene was lively and lively.

At the main table, Su Ci solemnly handed the bride price and a watch to Lou's father and Lou's mother.

This amount of money may be insignificant to the Lou family, but in this era, compared to other families, it is a huge amount of money.

"Uncle, aunt, please feel free to leave Xiao'e to me. Although I don't have money now, I will definitely get better in the future."

Lou's father and Lou's mother were very satisfied with Su Ci's move, and they both showed happy smiles.

It’s not that Lou’s father has never thought about marrying his daughter to a rich family, but because the current situation is getting more and more severe, he has to avoid risks. He is not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case, so he can only find an ordinary family for his child.

.

But Father Lou believes in his own vision and will never see the wrong person. Su Ci is a rare talent and will definitely have a bright future. It will not be a loss for his daughter to marry him.

The engagement ceremony went smoothly and ended successfully.

After sending away all relatives and friends, Lou's father discussed the wedding banquet with Su Ci.

In the end, it was decided to hold a ten-table banquet at Su Ci's house, which is the courtyard. Three days later, when he returned to Lou's house, Lou's father would invite relatives and friends to the banquet again.

Although most people in this era get married, they dress up neatly, take photos, get a marriage certificate, give out wedding candies, peanuts, dates, etc. when they get back, and then simply host two banquets.

But because the Lou family is the major shareholder of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill and Lou Xiao'e is considered a daughter of a wealthy family, Lou's father will definitely marry his daughter off in a glamorous manner.

Su Ci, who returned to the courtyard, also began to prepare for the marriage.

Su Ci first went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things for painting the walls. After returning home, he cleaned the house from top to bottom, inside and out. He planned to repaint the house. After all, it was a wedding room and he wanted to give it a new look.

Go and marry Lou Xiaoe.

Su Ci also bought a lot of things for the wedding, mainly a sewing machine. They said they were three big items, and now they finally got it together.

In fact, there is also a lady’s watch that I secretly bought for Lou Xiaoe, hoping to surprise her on her wedding day.

When the sewing machine was moved back to the courtyard, it made every woman jealous. Everyone was curious about what kind of woman it was that made this young man Su Ci so willing to spend so much money.

The sewing machine was too heavy to be moved by one person, so Su Ci spent a few cents to hire someone to carry it back with her.

In addition, I also bought a lot of peanuts, melon seeds, red dates, longans, white rabbit toffee, etc.

The deaf old lady knew that Su Ci was getting married, so she personally cut out a bunch of double happiness words on red paper for him. Her grandma was the only sensible and good person in this courtyard.

It has been a week since I tidied up the house and ventilated it for a few days.

Su Ci started to prepare the ingredients for the banquet.

Although they had an quarrel with Shazhu last time because of Qin Huairu's incident, they still greeted each other when they met during this time.

So Su Ci still planned to ask Sha Zhu to cook. After all, he didn't know a chef who could cook better than Sha Zhu.

This time, Su Ci bought ingredients according to the list made by Sha Zhu to prevent waste. After all, he had no experience in this area.

Su Ci, who wanted to buy ingredients that day, received the marriage introduction letter. She was so excited that she immediately got on her bicycle and went to Lou's house to find Lou Xiao'e.

"Xiao'e, Xiao'e, come down quickly." Su Ci shouted as soon as he stopped the car.

"What's wrong? Are you in such a hurry?" Lou Xiao'e stuck her head out of the window and asked confused.

Su Ci pretended to be mysterious: "Come down first and I'll show you something good."

"What? It's so mysterious! Just wait for me and I'll come down right away." Lou Xiao'e ran out after saying that.

"Thump thump thump thump, look, what is this!" Su Ci couldn't wait to show Lou Xiao'e the letter of introduction that was tightly held in his hand.

Lou Xiao'e opened it and looked at it: "Wow, a letter of introduction!"

Su Ci pulled Lou Xiao'e excitedly: "Xiao'e, we can finally get married. Let's go get the certificate!"

Lou Xiao'e hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, don't worry! I'm going to dress up and go home to change clothes."

"No need, let's go directly to the photo studio to change, and then take the wedding photos too!" After Su Ci said that, he led Lou Xiao'e and got on the bicycle.

"Are we going to take wedding photos?" Lou Xiao'e was very excited just thinking about it.

"Of course. Of course you have to take photos when you get married. Who told my bride to be so beautiful?"

When they arrived at the photo studio, the two of them still couldn't contain their excitement.

Su Ci asked the boss if he could change into their clothes and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to take photos and obtain certificates, and then come back to take wedding photos.

After the boss asked Su Ci to pay a deposit of five yuan, he agreed for them to leave.

Both of them were wearing white shirts from the photo studio. Lou Xiao'e put on some makeup, her face was flushed and she lowered her head. She was too shy to turn her head to look at Su Ci.

When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, they filled out the information and submitted it to the staff.

After the comrades from the Civil Affairs Bureau recorded the information, someone took them to take pictures.
