Chapter 394
"Hey, little girls, stop chatting, the dowry is here, the one who should avoid it, hurry up and avoid it!" An aunt at the door looked at the little girls chatting happily in the yard with a smile and kindly reminded her.

Everyone is watching the excitement, and the people inside pass the news to the people outside, so that they can also know the battle situation inside in time, and the people outside will also pass on the situation outside in time.

Timely delivery, rolling broadcast, message sharing.

Su Jin wanted to pretend not to hear, but the second grandpa heard the reminder and came over: "Jin'er is not going back to the house yet, this is your happy event!"

"Sister, hurry back to the house, I will seriously help you see the dowry gift, and I will explain it to you later." Su Yu giggled, and pushed Su Jin twice.

"Sister, I will help Second Sister read carefully, so that she won't miss it." Su Ni stuck out her tongue playfully.The words of the two sisters made everyone around them laugh.

Su Jingang and Ji, Su Yu is also 13 years old, and Su Ni is only nine years old.The three sisters have had a very good relationship since they were young, and such jokes are very common.

Hearing the noise outside the courtyard door, Su Jin knew that he had to escape, so he stomped and ran back to his room, closed the door, but secretly left a gap to look out.

Her sister-in-law Su Lishi glanced back, but she smiled and didn't say anything, she just pretended not to know, but turned her body to the side so that Su Jin could see clearly.

Everyone outside the courtyard saw that the carload of presents that Fang Kai rushed over was indeed a betrothal gift, and they couldn't help shouting, this Fang's family expected to be betrothed today, right?It was so well prepared.

What they didn't know was that the Fang family didn't expect to be hired today, but they decided that they must be hired today. They have worked hard for this purpose until now.

Those mahogany boxes were all tied with red silk and placed on the oxcart in two rows, there were as many as sixteen.

There were eight dowry gift boxes bought from Lin's shop, plus sixteen bolts of cloth, two of which were fully packed, two of jewellery, banknotes, gold and silver curries, two of cakes, and fruit two.

Some suitcases have small compartments for small items, while others have only one large open compartment for enlarged items and boxed items.In short, the bullock cart was full, and everyone else became excited when they saw it.

In fact, strictly speaking, the sixteen betrothal gifts are not all of these, and many items also use items with auspicious or homophonic meanings, such as peaches, plums, bayberries, and loquats, which cannot be used casually for fruits.

But here is the dowry gift of a peasant family, so naturally it cannot be compared with those in the city, and they are not so particular about it. It just looks grand and decent.

What's more, Fang Xiaofu believes that the value reflects the status, and the few hundred taels of jewelry can raise the level of the entire betrothal gift.

When it comes to marriage proposals, except for the matchmaker, no woman from the man's family can be present, but the bride-to-be must be present, which is why the bride-to-be must avoid it.

The couple cannot meet before marriage.Even people who were familiar with each other before have to start paying attention to them now.

The ox cart was parked outside the yard, and Liu Zefei's uncle, Liu Mingcan, randomly called a few young men from the onlookers, and moved all sixteen suitcases to the Su's yard at once.

Liu Zefei freshened up and changed into a clean and half-new blue long gown. If the bruises on his face were ignored, he was still very energetic. The onlookers were booing, depending on the dowry.

"Hmph, did the Liu family come here prepared? Or is it called a dowry gift if you just fill a gift box with something?" Mrs. Su squinted her old eyes and snorted coldly.

"You won't use some mud, stones, etc. to make up the number?" Su Jin's mother stood beside her mother-in-law, and immediately yelled a word of magic, as if she also found it funny, so she laughed.

"Zefei, open the box quickly and let your mother-in-law see if it is mud or stones! If not, let her apologize to you!" An aunt immediately yelled loudly.

"That's right, these two shrews from the Su family really deserve scolding. I never thought we'd been neighbors with such a woman for decades." Another voice said.Immediately, more people responded.

Su Jin's mother blushed, but she didn't dare to say anything. Her eyes wandered over the suitcases placed together, and she couldn't help being a little curious.

"Liu Zefei, the grandson of Liu's parents, came to marry Miss Sumen Jin'er. This is a dowry gift at the age of sixteen. Please check with the elders of Su's parents." Liu Zefei said loudly and bowed to Su Jicheng and his son, but deliberately ignored Mrs. Su's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Mother Jin'er, hurry up and open it!" Mrs. Su ordered her daughter-in-law immediately.

"Here is the gift list!"

Liu Mingcan saw that the attitude of the Su family really deserved a beating, and he almost rolled up his sleeves, but when he thought of the advice from his sister and brother-in-law when he was at home, he had to bear it again and again, raised his hand and raised a red printed wedding card in his hand and said loudly.

"Wow! There is also a gift list! It is really formal!" Someone in the crowd exclaimed again.

"Mingcan show the gift list to my old man." The second grandpa remembered his mission of protecting the media, so he beckoned for the gift list to open it, and immediately grinned.

"Since everyone wants to know, the old man will read it to you, and let the Su family compare the gift list to check whether the dowry is right." The second grandfather held up his white beard and raised the gift list at a 45-degree angle.

Fang Xiaofu curled his lips, sighing secretly that there are no reading glasses in this era, it is still very good that the elderly can see those words clearly.

Mrs. Su seemed to be unable to swallow this breath, and ordered her daughter-in-law to open the box quickly, regardless of the second grandpa reading the gift list.

Su Jin's father and elder brother moved a large table and placed it in the middle of the courtyard. Many people squeezed into it excitedly, and immediately made the sixth patriarch drink away.

The second grandpa first recited items commonly used in betrothal gifts. Many people would buy them, but they bought more and less according to different family backgrounds.Of course, the Liu family's eight boxes are considered a high standard.

The old lady Su and Su Jin's mother glanced at the box opened by Brother Su Jin with disgust, and then went to look through the small boxes piled up in the other suitcase, but the sarcastic words froze in their mouths.

"Wow! It's Jintou noodles!" Someone nearby immediately saw it.

Su Jin's mother reacted and immediately went to open another box, her hands began to tremble.The old lady Su seemed to be shocked too, and hurriedly opened the remaining boxes, her mouth couldn't help opening.

Although their Su family only opened a grocery store at the entrance of the village, the business is still good, and they have some family background. At least in this kind of village, life is considered easy, otherwise they would not think about becoming a big family in the town.

But she had never seen so many precious jewelry in her whole life, and it was right in front of her.

She has only been to jewelry shops so few times in her life, and she dare not take a second look at expensive jewelry, for fear that Xiaoer will force her to buy them if she sees them.But now...
