Chapter 316 Chu Family Wedding Banquet

Zhong Meihui had an extremely depressing meal. Feng Zhenxiu had a bad habit of licking her chopsticks. Every time she finished a mouthful of food, she would lick her chopsticks. Zhong Meihui couldn't eat any dish she picked up, so she could only pick it up. Rice in bowl.

"Mom and Dad, I went to Xiuxiu's house a few days ago. Her mother said that if she wanted to marry her, she would have to live in a new house, drive a new car, and ask for a gift of 10 yuan and three gold coins. After all, my sister took 10 yuan. Everyone knows about the bride price, Xiuxiu cannot be lower than my sister, and the gold jewelry must be compared to my sister’s original share, it can only be more but not less.”

Zhong Laifu followed Feng Zhenxiu's previous request and made a condition to his parents at the dinner table. His words made Zhong Meihui's parents stunned. It was natural for a boy to prepare a house for his marriage, but when would the local bride price be [-] yuan? Started.

"Let's discuss this matter slowly. What's more, the two in-laws discuss the matter of marriage with each other. How can the younger generation discuss it with the elders."

Zhong Meihui's father didn't want to agree to this, but he didn't want to interfere with his son's marriage, so he could only shirk it temporarily. But his words made Feng Zhenxiu angry. She pushed the bowl away and immediately fell out with Zhong Meihui's parents. .

"This is the prerequisite for meeting my parents. If your family can't even agree to this, then there is no need to talk about our marriage."

Feng Zhenxiu said every word through gritted teeth. The two elders of the Zhong family did not dare to refute, so they could only vent their grievances on Zhong Meihui.

"Why did you have such a ostentatious wedding? After staying in the city for a few years, you no longer know who you are. You want everything, and you have to see if you are worthy of it!"

Zhong Meihui's father scolded Sang and Huai, and even broke the bowl in front of him. Zhong Meihui's mother also glared at Zhong Meihui fiercely, as if she felt that Zhong Meihui was the reason why Zhong Laifu's marriage was so difficult.

"Mom and Dad, what do you mean? Do you think my 10 yuan gift is too much? It's okay. If you think it's too much, just return it to me now."

Chu Shoucheng could hear what Zhong Meihui's parents meant, but he couldn't watch Zhong Meihui suffer such injustice. He directly retorted, leaving the second elder of the Zhong family speechless.

They found that they had fallen into a pit. If the 10 yuan gift was too much, then Chu Shoucheng would ask for a refund. If the 10 yuan gift was not much, then Feng Zhenxiu would really ask them for money.

"It's gone, let's go. I have a bad headache today and I don't want to say anything." Zhong Meihui's father took the opportunity to return to the house. Zhong Meihui and Chu Shoucheng also said goodbye. Feng Zhenxiu saw that the matter was not settled, She had been angry with Zhong Laifu, and she scratched several bloody marks on his neck, which made Zhong Meihui's mother dare not speak out.

"By the way, Meihui, we have to go home tomorrow. Tomorrow is the sixth brother's college entrance banquet." Chu Shoucheng told Zhong Meihui good news. Previously, the second elder of the Chu family wanted to keep a low profile and wait until the Chinese New Year to organize it for the sixth elder of the Chu family. There are people in the village congratulating me every day on the college entrance banquet, and they always ask about the college entrance banquet. Even the village chief is particularly concerned about it, and is even willing to give up the ancestral hall.

Everyone was so sincere that it was difficult for the two elders of the Chu family to refuse. They finally decided to set up a few tables at home and have a fun time together.

"Sixth brother has been admitted to such a good school. He really should have a few tables. Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? I can go back and help."

Zhong Meihui felt that she had done nothing and was very embarrassed, but Chu Shoucheng said that everything had been arranged long ago, and Chu Shoucheng's father specially told him that their children were young and did not need to go over to help, and asked him not to tell Zhong Shoucheng. Meihui, wait until the last day to avoid her rushing over.

"Then let's give more red envelopes. It can be considered as a token of our gratitude as brother and sister-in-law."

Zhong Meihui had an idea in her mind. Early the next morning, they left Chu Ruowang at home to prevent him from blowing the wind. She, Chu Shoucheng, Chu Ruoxin, and the five sisters of the Chu family returned to their hometown.

"The Chu family is really prosperous. In just one year, the fourth child bought a car, and the sixth child was admitted to such a good university. He is still studying in the capital. It is like smoke rising from the ancestral grave."

"Not only that, the business of the eldest and second eldest son of the Chu family is good, especially the eldest son. He also bought a house in the best part of the county. Even the third and second sons of the Chu family opened a breakfast shop. I heard that the business is very good. Every morning everyone They’re all queuing up.”

Everyone in the village envies the Chu family, feeling that their lives have been like a cheat during this year, with everything going well and prospering. This is a blessing that people in the village have envied for generations.

Everyone in the Chu family gave red envelopes. The eldest brother, second brother-in-law, third brother-in-law, and fifth sister each gave 500 yuan. Zhong Meihui gave 200 yuan to her natal father. This amount of money was enough to take care of the sixth child of the Chu family for one semester. living expenses.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, why did you give money to your father-in-law? We are all relatives and don't need to do this." Chu Shoucheng's father declined. According to the custom, when the son of the Chu family holds a college entrance banquet, the in-laws do not need to attend. Yes, there is no need for courtesy.

But if even the in-laws are willing to follow the gift, it means that the family's character is excellent and their status in the village will rise.

The people of Zhong Meihui's family were so thoughtful in doing things, which warmed the hearts of the two elders of the Chu family. They said with smiles that when Zhong Meihui's brother got married, they would definitely return a big gift.

In fact, Zhong Meihui did this because Chu Shoucheng's father gave her 500 yuan when Chu Ruowang was born. Chu Shoucheng's father knew clearly that Chu Ruowang was not a child of the Chu family, but he was still willing to do this, which moved her very much. Today If I have the opportunity to repay him, I will naturally give him a little more face.

However, she also took into account the face of her other brothers and sisters and could not let her father, her in-law, pay more than them, so she set the amount of 200 yuan.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, you haven't forgotten what you said at the beginning. You said that as long as the sixth brother can pass the exam, you will pay all the tuition fees. Now that the sixth brother has passed the exam, why don't you say anything, just give me this 200 yuan is nothing, I’m afraid it’s not even enough for sixth brother’s travel expenses.”

The Chu family's sister-in-law looked at Zhong Meihui fiercely because she wanted to make her look embarrassed in front of everyone and deliberately mentioned that she had to pay for school fees.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Meihui was already prepared. She asked Chu Shoucheng to hand over the 5000 yuan she had prepared to the second elder of the Chu family, which was regarded as the first year's tuition for the sixth elder of the Chu family.

"Since I promised, I will definitely remember it. As long as my sixth brother wants to study, I will support him, even if he gets a doctorate, I will support him."

Zhong Meihui is now very wealthy, and this little money is nothing to her. She slapped her sister-in-law back with a few words, leaving her speechless.

"Sister-in-law, let's go out to greet the guests. There are a lot of people here today." After the fifth sister of the Chu family saw Zhong Meihui doing things so happily, she held her arm affectionately and saw her completely as the eldest sister-in-law of the family, but she really Her elder sister-in-law was already treated as if she was nothing. Even when she passed by, the fifth sister of the Chu family didn't even say hello.
