Chapter 80 Do not accept bride price
More than half an hour later, Lan Xinya arrived at Gu's house with Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang.
At this time, the Gu family, Wei Qiushuang and Gu Anguo were sitting in the living room, waiting patiently for the Lan family to come.
Gu Cheng could only be forced to accompany him.
Xiao Bai is not at home, he went out early in the morning.
As for where she went, even Wei Qiushuang didn't know.
When Wei Qiushuang woke up early in the morning, her son was no longer at home, but a note was left on the living room table, saying that he had to go out on business.
When Lan Xinya brought her biological parents to Gu's house, Xiaobai didn't come back either.
When Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang saw that Xiaobai was not at home and had no acquaintances, they sat on the sofa very cautiously.
With his son absent, Wei Qiushuang immediately took on the task of making the Lan family couple feel at ease.
She got up and poured a glass of water for the two of them, and placed it in front of them.
"Brother Lan, sister-in-law, drink some water to moisten your mouth first, don't be restrained when you come home."
As she spoke, she immediately introduced Gu Cheng, who was sitting next to her husband, to the Lan family.
"This is the eldest son of our Gu family, named Gu Cheng, and he is Xinya's boyfriend."
When Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang heard this, they immediately looked at Gu Cheng who Mrs. Wei said.
Gu Cheng largely inherited his father Gu Anguo's Zhou Zheng's appearance.
Chinese character face, thick eyebrows, high nose bridge, wide nose wings, slightly thick lips, and obvious double eyelids.
This appearance is definitely the appearance of a national standard man in today's era. Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang are quite satisfied with seeing each other.
Looking at Gu Cheng's height, even though he didn't stand up, he is not short with his long arms and legs.
Probably about the same height as Xiaobai, but looks a bit thicker than Xiaobai.
Gu Cheng's external conditions are quite good, as for his character...
When they met for the first time, the couple still couldn't tell.
Seeing the eyes of the Lan family couple looking at their son, Gu Anguo also introduced.
"My eldest son is in the electric appliance business. He has opened two stores here in Kyoto, mainly selling washing machines, TV sets, and some small appliances. The business is pretty good. Don't worry, Xinya won't suffer when she gets married! "
Although Gu Anguo was angry at his son's previous attitude, he was his own son after all, and it was related to his son's marriage. If a father can help his son with a few good words, then he should say more.
Aside, Gu Cheng frowned slightly when he heard his father introducing himself to outsiders.
He didn't really want his girlfriend, these country relatives who popped up all of a sudden, to know that he was rich.
To prevent the other party from pestering him because he is rich.
But now, his father has directly confessed to someone—
Originally, Gu Cheng planned to go through the motions today and didn't plan to say anything.
But now, since the other party knows about his situation, there are some things that he should clarify.
Gu Cheng raised his eyes, and swept across the two of them lightly.
"You two can be regarded as Xinya's elders. I hope you can agree to my engagement with Xinya."
"Don't worry, I'll take out the dowry money for Xinya and I's wedding in double. One thousand yuan will be given to you, and the other will be given to Xinya's parents."
Gu Cheng thought that he was willing to give money to the parents whose girlfriend suddenly jumped out, he was already very generous.
But these words reached Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang's ears, and both of them recognized the object of their daughter's engagement. Under the surface of the polite words, the tone was contempt for the couple—
What do you mean they are the elders of the daughter?
They are Xinya's biological parents!
And the other party addressed them as 'you', but to the cousin and his wife, they were 'Xinya's parents'.
In just a few words, Lan Shengli already understood that the eldest son of the Gu family didn't take them seriously at all!
From the perspective of her boyfriend, the couple seemed to have come to Kyoto to "play the autumn wind" suddenly—
Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang were originally here to help their daughter see how the person she was looking for was.
Now it seems that such a man, how could they hand over their daughter with confidence?
Aside, Gu Anguo and Wei Qiushuang also heard the disrespect in the son/adopted son's tone.
Gu Anguo immediately boasted!
Wei Qiushuang didn't want the situation to be ugly, so he immediately took the call, "Gu Cheng, double dowry is also appropriate!"
As she said that, she looked at Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang, and continued, "Our family, Gu Cheng, is not very good at talking, so he shouldn't have brought up this matter. Of course, we are the parents of the dowry. Don't worry, Gu Cheng Cheng likes Xinya very much, and will treat Xinya well in the future."
Lan Shengli naturally understood Mrs. Wei's good intentions to make peace, but they could see clearly what the Gu family's eldest son looked like.
He looked at Gu Cheng, and said seriously, "We didn't come all the way from Tianshui Village to ask for a bride price!"
"Oh?" Gu Cheng didn't believe it, and then asked, "Then why are you here? Just to see your own daughter?"
The obvious disbelief in this sentence made Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang feel as if the other party was humiliating them!
They came to see their own daughter!
Chang Chunfang thinks she is upright, if others don't believe her, then her daughter will definitely not think so.
But when she looked towards Lan Xinya, she found that her biological daughter pursed her lips and said nothing, seeming to agree with her partner's thoughts—
Chang Chunfang never thought of this situation. Her breath tightened and her heart ached!
Why would my daughter think of her so much?
"Xinya, you have to trust me and your father, we will never take a penny of your gift money! Not only that, when you get married, we will raise a dowry for you!"
"Dowry?" Lan Xinya frowned.
She doesn't think she can add any dowry to herself with the conditions of her biological parents?
Lan Xinya doesn't care at all, and she doesn't like those so-called dowries either.
Adding a decent dowry to herself can only be done by her parents in Kyoto.
As if seeing their daughter's distrust, Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang felt heavy in their hearts.
In the daughter’s heart, are they the kind of parents who only come for the bride price and can’t afford the dowry?
Thinking of this, Chang Chunfang gritted her teeth, as if to prove something, she looked at Lan Xinya and said—
"Xinya, when you get married, we won't accept a bride price, and we will give you a dowry of 500 yuan!"
Five hundred yuan is already a high price in the village!
The bride price for other people's sons to marry their daughter-in-law is only one hundred.
When their baby Shushu got married, they bought things back and forth and gave them to Xu Yunjie's family, and they didn't have five hundred...
The money is almost the only savings left in the hands of the couple who have saved most of their lives!
Chang Chunfang knew that she did this, so she was a little sorry for Shushu.
But now that Xinya was born in the capital, if the couple received less money, they would not be taken seriously at all.
Moreover, this dowry is not only a dowry, but also the face of the couple as their daughter's biological parents!
