v2 Chapter 103： Gu Mingde's analysis, show the dowry

I can't remember this for a while, so Gu Mingde doesn't plan to talk about it anymore.

When Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu came back, Gu Mingde told them what the village chief said, and both of them looked like they had seen a ghost, especially Gu Erniu, who directly exclaimed: " Dad, the sun is coming out from the west! The village chief grandpa didn’t think about letting his son take over as the village chief, but he gave you this position? Our village chief has changed!”

, but the people in the village were frightened, and now they see us like a mouse and a cat.

The village head understands that even if his son becomes the village head and our family is in Caozi Village, his son cannot really control our Caozi Village. Those who don't have long eyes provoke us again. Then it will be a mess. He doesn't want his son to offend our family.

In this case, it is better to let me be the village head directly, the villagers will not dare to be presumptuous after the horizontal and vertical, plus I am the village head, I always have to think about the village, so that I will not be The same thing happened before. "

"Dad, the village chief grandfather is worthy of being a man, he thinks so much, and the most important thing is that he is willing to give up the position of the village chief! !" Gu Daniu exclaimed, thinking that it is only with such courage that the village head can be the head of Caozi Village for decades.

"Okay, don't worry about this for now. I'll ask when I see Shuixiu and the others. Isn't that Mr. Shen still here? The situation is also relatively clear, let's ask another day!" Gu Mingde made a final decision.

Zhao et al. have no comments.

The busy days are always very fast. After all the preparations of the Gu family are in place, the Zhao family asks Dong Yi to take Gu Daniu to the town to buy the fabrics needed for marriage, and to build a brand new set of The furniture should be placed in the wedding room, and the dowry gift for the Yang family should also be prepared.

The Zhao family originally wanted to buy a box of exquisite dim sum at the famous dim sum shop in the town, and then let Gu Daniu go to the town to see if he could buy geese. Buy two large white geese, plus six pieces of fine cloth, a set of silver head and face to make four gifts, and another three gifts and dowry to make eight gifts.

The bride price will be 8 taels of silver, no more or no less, and the meaning is good.

Gu Daniu had no opinion on this. He just saw a gilt butterfly hairpin when he was shopping for silver head noodles in the town. He thought it was very beautiful, so he also bought it.

It's really unaffordable for their family to buy a gold head and face, but it's not bad to be able to buy a gilt hairpin.

The Zhao family knew that Gu Daniu bought such a hairpin on his own initiative and didn't say anything, and added it directly as a dowry gift. In this way, the dowry gift was considered enough, at least for them Shili Baxiang definitely has a long face.

Because they are all poor here, and they are in the deep mountains, if a poor family can marry a daughter-in-law, if they don't have enough gifts, they will collect four gifts, but there is absolutely one dried fruit, which is picked in the mountains The wild fruits are dried and preserved, and the other is the chickens, ducks and eggs raised at home, so it is two different things, and the last one is the bride price. And snacks and the like, in short, are some ordinary things.

What's even worse, just like when Gu Shuixiu got married, the Dong family was impoverished, she didn't even have the four proper etiquette, she just married a wild boar.

So the dowry that the Gu family prepared for the Yang family this time is enough to make everyone jealous.

In early February, it was the day when the Gu family went to the Yang family to be hired. Dong Yi escorted Gu Daniu there.

Those villagers who used to avoid the Gu family like snakes and scorpions, Tian finally sent a representative here. On the big happy day, the Zhao family is not good at showing his face to others, mentioning the unhappiness in the past.

I also made a special banquet to entertain them.

There are meat, fish, chicken and duck on the wine table, and these people's eyes are glued to it and they can't move.

A matchmaker shouted loudly: "The bride price~"

Then they tried their best to turn their eyes away from the wine table and went out to see what dowry the Gu family had prepared. Hearing that there were six pieces of fine cloth, a set of silver head and face, and a gilt hairpin, they were already stunned. Finally, when they heard about eight taels of dowry, they were all boiling.

& nbsp;

"Did you just hear it? There is also a pair of silver heads and a gilt hairpin! That's worth several taels of silver..."

"There are sixteen or eighteen taels of these betrothal gifts! I didn't expect the poorest people in the past to become the richest in our village..."

…

These people can say anything. Gu Mingde and Zhao are not deaf, so they can hear them all, but they don't care at all. With so many betrothal gifts, you can slap some people in the face, and see what they say about their poor family!

After posting the betrothal gifts, Gu Daniu, accompanied by Dong Yi, went to Shen's house with the betrothal gifts and the matchmaker.

Although the Shen family is deep in the mountains, the road from Caozi Village to Shen's is not the same as to Cuizhu Mountain. From Caozi Village to Shen's family is much faster than going to Cuizhu Mountain. It is also better to go.

wave.

Butler Yang motioned for Mrs. Mi to hurry into the kitchen to prepare. Today, the prospective son-in-law came to hire him. As the wife's natal family, she wanted to prepare a banquet for the prospective son-in-law.

There is such a custom not only in Yongjia County, but also in Badong County.

Gu Daniu and Butler Yang are so familiar with each other that they are not prudent when they see them. All the things were put in the main room of the Shen family.

At this moment, Yang Yi came out of the inner courtyard. Seeing Gu Daniu smiling and nodding, everyone can start to salute. The matchmaker cleared his throat, and in front of everyone Read the Gu family's dowry again.

During the period, Butler Yang and Mrs. Mi kept smiling, as if they didn't care about the amount of the dowry.

Yang Yi has a cold face, let alone expressing his position.
