Chapter 175 Betrothal Gift

Serving "morning tea" is a custom in the Jianghuai area.

In fact, when guests came to the house, considering that some of them had not had breakfast and lunch was still early, and fearing that they would neglect the guests, they compromised on the custom of serving "morning tea". This custom is mainly preserved in the Jianghuai area.

When serving "morning tea", Sun Xudong has to bring it to the in-laws' side and offer it to them personally, and then receive red envelopes. On the Sun family's side, the girl who is engaged to be engaged personally presents it to the Sun family, and they also receive red envelopes.

.

After a lot of tossing, they all called out "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Uncle, Auntie", including two ancestors of the Xuanyuan family. The whole circle was very tiring for Sun Xudong.

The red envelope was taken with ease, but Alexander was under mental pressure. Under the intense gazes of the three prospective mothers-in-law, he felt guilty and uneasy. He turned around and was covered in sweat.

Mr. and Mrs. Sun Guozheng and Mr. and Mrs. Sun Piaoyang accepted the "morning tea" from their prospective grandson-in-law and their prospective daughter-in-law duly. They took out the red envelopes with smiles and shouted "Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom" respectfully.

Everyone was smiling.

After some "tea service", everyone began to eat lively. It is the custom of Jianghuai that each person should leave two dates and two glutinous rice balls in the bowl, which means "to save luck." These Sun family members also

I already had a reminder, so I was afraid of causing embarrassment.

Soon, this event was over, and everyone came to the living room, where the real "big show" began.

Mr. Wen and Mrs. Wang acted as matchmakers, and under their witness, the two parties exchanged "dragon and phoenix stickers".

The "Dragon and Phoenix Tie" has the word "Qiu Ji" written on it, which is also called "Qing Tie". The rough content is: "I am ashamed of the jade field, I pray for you. Sun Piaoyang bows". The "Phoenix Tie" written by the woman to the man reads:

The word "Yun Ji" is also called "Yun Tie", and the rough content is: "I am ashamed to compare with the phoenix, and I am willing to ride on the dragon. The foolish brother (brother) in marriage bows.". "Dragon and Phoenix Tie" are usually sold in red and gold.

It is made in half-fold style, with the male and female birth year, month, day and hour written on the left and right sides of the middle seam, and it fits together when folded.

This ceremony is also determined by referring to local customs. Just like the exchange of birth dates between men and women in ancient times, this link is indispensable for families with ancient family inheritance.

Next, both men and women bring out the "four-color gifts". The man gives the woman "engagement clothes", rings, earrings, bracelets and other items. The woman gives back to the man the four treasures of the study, fans, purses, and trouser belts. The trouser belts are especially indispensable.

, metaphor "I will tie you up from now on", or "I will serve you with a turban and take off my clothes".

Sun Xudong put a lot of thought into this part. Five girls, rings, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces made of five top-quality materials. These used Sun Yu's power in Africa, and also used the energy of Bai Shi to find the

Gemstones. Designed by Xiaoxue and made by herself, these are unique and exquisite jewelry in the world. Each piece can fetch sky-high prices.

Take the selection of materials as an example. The gems on this ring are "red diamonds" produced on the riverbed in Namibia. A red diamond as big as a fist is perfectly cut into five parts. Each part is as big as a pigeon egg, about ten pieces.

How many carats are there? Diamonds are a symbol of everlasting love. There is a saying that "a diamond lasts forever, and a diamond lasts forever." Red diamonds are the most precious among diamonds. You can imagine the sky-high price of this ring.

The gemstones chosen for the necklace are emerald and ruby. According to each person's personality, the quiet one will choose emerald. The colors are green heart green and tender tree bud green. These two pieces are for Jin'er and Liu Ruohan. The ruby ​​one is for them.

The necklace is reserved for the other three women. This ruby ​​is not simple. It is a light red "star ruby", but it is said to be a "female ruby".

The bracelet is woven together from sky blue, blue green, and sea green aquamarines. The English name of aquamarine is aquamarine. Among them, "aqua" means water, and "marine" means ocean. It can be seen that the gemstone is

The name is very appropriate because of its color. Aquamarine is abundant in the seabed. It is said to be the essence of the sea and is called the "God of Fortune Stone".

For the earrings, I chose Dongzhu. Dongzhu is a rare treasure among treasures. The so-called Dongzhu, also known as Northern Pearl, Big Pearl, and Beautiful Pearl, is a freshwater pearl produced in the rivers of the Heilongjiang Basin.

A kind of pearl taken out. Compared with ordinary pearls, it is crystal clear, round and huge, and more noble. It has been a necessary tribute for Chinese dynasties since ancient times. The Dongzhu selected by Sun Xudong is a peerless treasure. Or

The ones I bought from abroad are all about the size of pigeon eggs.

These all took Sun Xudong a lot of thought and careful craftsmanship. His craftsmanship is top-notch. He spent countless hours studying the system, but he received guidance from countless top masters. After learning, he carefully studied and carved it carefully, which took him two weeks.

It took more than ten years of work under the system's time to successfully complete it.

When these five "four-color gifts" were brought up by Sun Xudong, everyone in the audience exclaimed. They were all attracted by the brilliance of the gems in front of them, and also conquered the hearts of several prospective mothers-in-law. Women, regardless of age, are interested in

The treasure of precious stones cannot be refined from the secular world, and even the two female major generals were no exception, they both stared at the jewelry in front of them.

The people of the Sun family were also amazed at Sun Xudong's generosity. They didn't know it beforehand. When the things were presented, they realized how domineering Sun Xudong was, and they were only filled with pride.

Everyone in the room was affected by this jewel. Even the two ancestors of the Xuanyuan family were amazed, wondering where this kid got so many treasures? The previous "Spirit Stone" had already surprised them.

Now I can take out so many gems at once, which I can't even do at home.

There was probably only one person in the room who knew a little bit about it, and that was Bai Shi. He also helped out a bit, and he provided some of the emeralds, but he didn't expect that Sun Xudong was still hidden very deep, and he had to get to know him again.

Mr. Wen woke up quickly and coughed, and everyone reluctantly took their eyes away from the jewelry. They did not dare to look at it anymore for fear of being tempted. These things are too "destructive" to women, and these would-be mothers-in-law, in their hearts

Also changing my mind.

As a matchmaker, Mr. Wen made a joke to cover up everyone's embarrassment: "Xiaodong, which country's treasury did you rob? Did you get so many gems?"

Sun Xudong didn't dare to take advantage of it in front of everyone. He also said simply and neatly: "I have some investments abroad, so they helped me find these. Of course, I also put a lot of effort into it. I built these with my own hands.

It can be said that every piece is unique in the world and has my mark on it."

"Ah...", hiss...".

Many people in the room looked at Sun Xudong as if he were a monster, but some people who were familiar with him had long been used to it. Nothing had happened to this kid, and it was not unusual for these jewelry. But there was one thing.

The boy is very concerned about the engagement this time. Every piece of these hand-made jewelry can be sold for a sky-high price, not only because of the gemstones, but also because of the unique design and the master level.

Craftsmanship is enough to increase the original value a hundred times, or even a thousand times.

Sun Xudong handed over each portion to each family, but Major General Chen Shuping took two portions. Now everyone was staring at her. Only then did the other families understand the Liu family's intentions and took that portion.

The Liu family gets two portions of the betrothal gift and the current "four-color gift", but each family gets twice as much. This "buy one, get one free" deal for a married woman is not a loss, but your family needs two portions as a return gift.

It’s enough to give your family a headache.

The three families had misunderstood the Liu family, and they had no choice. They were "forced into danger". For the lives of the two girls, they had to make a choice. The secret behind this must not be revealed to outsiders.

The atmosphere in the room was a bit weird. Sun Xudong also followed the order of recognition and finally handed the remaining two copies to Chen Shuping. But now with the atmosphere in the room, even he felt something was wrong.

Mr. Wen still stood up, and he said awkwardly: "Don't guess this, everyone. There is a hidden secret here. Now that the child has taken out the betrothal gift, here is your return gift."

In the room, the slightly red faces of Mr. and Mrs. Liu were considered to be visible to others. The embarrassment of Mr. and Mrs. Liu Zhongyuan was also reduced, and the old man was considering his daughter.

Compared with Sun Xudong's "generous act" just now, the return gift was far behind. But everyone was doing their best, and the four treasures of the study, as well as the calligraphy and calligraphy treasures, were considered to be what they liked. But what made him dumbfounded was the sachet.

and belts, I really can’t praise the craftsmanship, but in the blink of an eye, they probably did it themselves. What surprised Sun Xudong the most was that Liu Shiying’s part was so well made. It seemed that she was a good female celebrity and was educated at home.

very good.

In the comparison of return gifts from various families, Liu Shiying of the Liu family really took the top spot this time. The "meeting gift" between the two parties ended in this way, and the following is the "betrothal gift" given by the man.

Mr. Wen took out a list and began to read: "88888 yuan gift, 8 intermediate spiritual stones, 88 low-level spiritual stones. 8 bottles of body-building pills, 8 bottles of divine refining pills, 8 bottles of innate pills. Foundation building

8 Pills, 4 Barrier-Breaking Pills, 2 Nascent Soul Pills, and 1 Broken Infant Pill." Mr. Wen didn't quite understand the value of these pills. As a matchmaker, he also read them according to the betrothal gift list.

"Hiss..." This time, all the cultivators were collectively shocked. The Sun family gave out a huge betrothal gift, and they gave out 5 gifts at once. If someone from the outside world knew about it, they wouldn't rush to marry their daughter off.

Come here. Now the three prospective mothers-in-law are really convinced and frightened by the Sun family's "big deal" this time.

Even the two ancestors of the Xuanyuan family flushed with excitement. The "Broken Baby Pill" was what they had dreamed of, and now it was right in front of them. The two of them wanted to rush up and grab it, but they did not dare to make a mistake. This was the Sun family.

Mr. Bai and Xuanyuan Long were also very satisfied. With the power of their family, they could move up a level. Mr. Liu was even more happy. His family got two shares. It seemed that his original decision was a wise one.

The two Xuanyuan ancestors lowered their heads in private and wondered what they were muttering about? It was probably about the "Breaking Infant Pill". They were thinking about how to get another one. The original one they had was already used by the boss and had already broken through the Yuan Shen stage.

, now they are the only two who have not made a breakthrough and are stuck in the half-step Yuan Shen stage. How can they separate one "Broken Baby Pill" from another? They must get another one.

There was another person with a pale face at the scene, and that was Ye Tian. He represented the Ye family, and as the foreign aid of the Zhou family, he was originally here to watch the ceremony. Why wouldn't he be surprised by the Sun family's generosity now? The Xuanyuan family and the Liu family in Kyoto

After this time with the Bai family, the family's strength will definitely increase to a higher level. So what should we, the Ye family, do?

Sun Guozheng stood up, and all the eyes of the audience were focused on him.

When I got home yesterday, the two chapters I had coded were gone, so I had to code until one o'clock in the middle of the night. I was depressed! I'll stop here today, I have to take a rest.
