On the twelfth day of the first month, the Xu family held an engagement banquet at the county guesthouse.
The relationship between the Li family and my family is general, so Grandma Li took a few girls to the banquet.
The Xu family is Xu Shao's grandmother, three aunts and Xu Shao's stepmother Zhao Jun's sister.
Li MINGYE, on the other hand, plays the role of matchmaker. He is not only the mother's family, but also the mother-in-law's family.
Because both sides are familiar, also is own person, this engagement banquet is particularly happy, in the warm and friendly atmosphere.
Li Mingli was wearing the new clothes Xu Shao bought for her, a big red dress. The long skirt hung down on her feet, showing her waist was particularly thin.
She usually does not make up, but today Li MINGYE painted her a light make-up, that is to say, light make-up, in fact, is to put on lipstick and powder. But as the saying goes, people depend on clothes and horses on saddles, so casually dressed up, it is both beautiful and fashionable!
Xu Shao's three aunts are all office workers who eat public meals. They are usually well dressed, but they are suddenly eclipsed by Li Mingli.
It's Xu Shao's stepmother, Zhao Yan, Zhao Jun's sister. In fact, she's not much older than Li Mingli. She's dressed in a fashion. But when it comes to appearance, she's far from Li Mingli.
See such a beautiful Li Mingli, Xu Shao excited do not know what to say, clearly this is his home, but he was embarrassed to say nothing.
Fortunately, they are all our own people, and they will pass by in a round.
At the end of the engagement banquet, Zhao Yan handed Li Mingli her newly bought purse, which contained the gift money and red envelope for her engagement.
This means that the marriage of two young people has been set down. If we discuss it further, we will have to discuss the matter of marriage.
Xu Shao drove the Li family back to Beiguan.
When he got home, Li MINGYE urged Li Mingli to take out the red envelope. The engagement money belonged to Li Mingli, but the red envelope was shared by everyone, even Grandma Li was no exception.
As soon as Li Mingli took out the red envelope, Li MINGYE snatched it and opened one of them. It was filled with 50 yuan!
This is a large amount of red envelope. At that time, the red envelope for engagement was only 20 yuan, and the amount given to 50 yuan was very rare. This shows the sincerity of the Xu family.
"Darling, Xu's family is so generous. They gave them 50 yuan red envelopes."
Li MINGYE exclaimed, and then picked up the gift money for Li Mingli and counted it. It turned out to be 500 yuan!
You should know that the local girls engaged. Generally, generous families give 200 yuan as a deposit. The stingy ones even only pay 50 yuan. The Xu family spent more than 1000 yuan to get engaged. It's really a big deal.
Of course, this also shows how much the Xu family attaches importance to Li Mingli.
Li MINGYE laughed, "Xiao Li is really lucky. Look how generous her mother-in-law is, but it's better than my mother-in-law!"
"That's not the same. When you were engaged, there was no reform and opening up, and people were generally poor. Now, although it has only been four or five years, the situation is really different. Everyone has money."
This is also a fact. For example, when Li Mingli went to work, her basic salary was only about 20 yuan a month. Now, her basic salary is 50 or 60 yuan. Plus the performance, she can get 70 or 80 yuan a month. However, the leather factory where Li MINGYE works is very profitable since it started. Now, on average, she gets nearly 100 yuan a month But no one can compare with Li Mingyun. In recent years, her family has already become a household of 10000 yuan, even 100000 yuan. Even Li Mingqin, who learned to sell cloth from her, now has a much more solid family. There are only two commercial houses.
Sisters with red envelopes, are very happy.
Li MINGYE then joked with Li Mingli, "Xiao Li, I didn't expect that you are still valuable!"
Li Mingli is not happy to roll a white eye to her, "four elder sister, see what you say?"
Li Mingyue is the matchmaker who gets the red envelope today. She is a matchmaker. She usually has a red envelope for the woman and a red envelope for the man. But if you meet a generous man, you can give two red envelopes directly.
Two red envelopes, that's 100 yuan!
In the mid-1980s, the purchasing power of 100 yuan was still very strong. Even Zhao Jun only got more than 60 yuan a month.
"I'm in a good mood when I'm going home for three months, but I haven't got a red bag for three months."
"You can pull it down."
Li MINGYE quickly stopped, "you see your third son didn't ask you for money. I dare to bet with you, and I don't know whether you believe it or not? If you take the red envelope back and show it in front of the third brother, he will try to coax you out of the money in a day
Li Mingyue did not believe it: "your third brother is not such a person."
Who knows Li Mingyun's sisters all refuted her, "it's not this kind of talent, you just listen to the leaves, and quickly put them away. If it's your third son asking, you'll let him ask Zhao Yan."
Seeing that everyone said so, Li Mingyue stopped speaking.Everyone focused on Li Mingli again, "Xiao Li's clothes are really beautiful this time."
Li MINGYE was very proud of hearing this: "my eyes, this skirt is my pick for Xiao Li."
Li Mingyue curiously asked: "on such a cold day, Xiao Li wears a skirt, isn't it cold?"
Li Ming Ye Bai looked at her, reached out, and lifted the long skirt of Li Mingli. "You see, how can it be cold in this way?"
Inside the skirt are thick woolen trousers.
According to Li Mingli's way of wearing, let alone being cold, it is equivalent to wearing a woollen skirt outside her usual thick woolen trousers, which is thicker than that of ordinary people. Why is it cold?
Li Mingyue burst out laughing: "it's not only not cold, but also thicker than us."
Now we all wear more foreign style than before. No one wears big cotton pants like before. We all think that cotton pants are wide and thick. They are bulky and can't stand out. Instead, they are thick wool pants. Pay attention to it. The best family condition is the thick wool pants woven by ourselves; the second is blended wool, and the last is acrylic If you cover the pants outside, it's the standard for us to spend the winter.
Although woollen trousers are not as warm as cotton padded trousers, it seems that winter is not as cold as it was a few years ago. In winter, people usually wear overcoats and duck down jackets, which are more warm and long, and their legs are not too cold.
Li Mingli also laughed: "I was afraid to wear only a strip. The skirt was too cold. Later, I thought about it. I put my woollen trousers inside and put on high boots. I can't see it from the outside."
"Anyway, Xiao Li is engaged today. How fast it is!"
Grandma Li said that her eyes were red. Xiao Li was her youngest daughter, and she was reluctant to part with her.
Several maidens advised her: "Mom, what do you do on a happy day? It would be nice for Xiao Li to find a good wife. Would you like to see that she can't get married
