Chapter 136 The Domineering Boss's Little Wife 53
"Okay, okay, the in-laws are so thoughtful! Yaoyao really found a good family!"
Lin Cuihua smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits and her mouth almost stretched to her ears. She kept saying nice things to Joanna and praising her.
She never mentioned the amount of the dowry and ignored Joanna's questions.
Joanna's face was full of pride, but she kept being humble: "No, no, it's just the children's fate."
"Don't worry, mother-in-law! We don't have a daughter in our family. If Yaoyao marries into our family, I will definitely treat her like my own daughter!"
"Yaoyao, if Yi Chen bullies you, tell me and I will teach him a lesson for you!" Joanna turned to look at Su Yao who was sitting next to her, her eyes full of love and concern.
"Hmm..." Su Yao lowered her head, her face slightly red, and her voice was as small as a mosquito.
"Apart from the house, the three golds that Yaoyao needs for her marriage, I'm old now, and my aesthetic taste is different from that of young people. I'm afraid Yaoyao won't like them. Find an opportunity and let Yichen accompany you to the gold shop. You can choose by yourselves, and we old couple will reimburse you! Yichen, did you hear me? Don't be busy with your company every day, spend more time with Yaoyao!" Joanna continued, her tone firm and serious.
"I got it, Mom!" Murong Yichen quickly agreed.
Murong Yichen agreed with a smile, not caring about his mother's scolding. His eyes fell on the shy Keren beside him, and his heart was full of joy and satisfaction.
"As for the issue of the betrothal gift, dear relatives, you also know that we are not from Hai City, so we don't know what the market is like here. Dear relatives, just tell us, we will definitely not treat Yaoyao unfairly!"
Joanna asked, looking at Lin Cuihua with a smile on her face.
Lin Cuihua and Su Zhenguo looked at each other, and they both understood what the other meant.
In fact, Lin Cuihua and her family have considered this issue for a long time.
After all, they all hope that their daughters can get a generous gift, but they don't want the other party to think they are too greedy or too stingy.
If they asked for too much, it might make it difficult for their daughter to do things in her husband's family, and it would be bad for their daughter to be alienated from them. They still depended on Su Yao for their retirement. But if they asked for too little, wouldn't it make their daughter look worthless? More importantly, this was related to their family's reputation outside, so at least it had to be higher than Su Yun's!
So after some discussion, they decided to follow local customs and go with the flow.
Lin Cuihua cleared her throat and slowly said, "Mother-in-law, we don't have too many special requirements for the gift. As long as the children can live happily, we will be satisfied."
Hearing this, Joanna was secretly happy. It seemed that the other party was not the kind of greedy person. However, Lin Cuihua's next words made her a little nervous.
"Of course, mother-in-law, you also know that Hai City is an international metropolis, and the dowry standards in the surrounding areas have always been high. And our Yaoyao, whether in the eyes of neighbors or relatives and friends, is an outstanding child! From childhood to adulthood, she not only has top academic performance, but also was admitted to a key university! And found such a stable and well-paid job, which is why she had the opportunity to meet such an outstanding young man like Yichen..."
Johanna nodded quickly in agreement, "Yes, mother-in-law, I also understand very well that Yaoyao is indeed a rare good child, otherwise Yichen would not be so fond of her."
Although she said so, Joanna already had a clue in her mind that she would probably have to bleed heavily this time.
"That's right, mother-in-law, you know it too! Neighbors are always competitive. If Yaoyao's betrothal gift is too low, it won't sound good if it is spread out. You won't be able to get away with it then!" Lin Cuihua continued, "Besides, you see, I only have one daughter. When she gets married, she will have to take good care of your son."
"Yes, that's right!" the boy's parents agreed.
Lin Cuihua was very satisfied with the attitude of the man's family, and then said: "Here in Hai City, the betrothal gift of ordinary families is usually more than 10! However, I don't want to make things difficult for you. So, this is what I thought, to make it auspicious for the children and have a good omen, how about 18.8?" Lin Cuihua tested carefully, her eyes fixed on the other party's reaction.
Murong Yichen's parents looked at each other. The number was neither too much nor too little.
"18.8 is fine. We agree." Murong Yunhao agreed.
Joanna smiled and said, "That's settled. Let's pick a good day as soon as possible for the two children to get married."
The parents of both parties have discussed the dowry, and the next step is to prepare the details of the wedding.
Su Yao and Murong Yichen also started to get busy. They had to take wedding photos, choose wedding dresses, decorate the wedding room, etc.
The wedding date was chosen very close, after all, the baby in Su Yao's belly couldn't wait.
Since Su Yao's marriage was arranged, Lin Cuihua and her family did not return to their hometown and found a house to live in the same community as Su Yun and her family.
The only difference is that before it was Su Zhenjiang, their elder brother, who rented the house for them, but this time they rented the house themselves.
Lin Cuihua has never stopped since she settled down.
Every day, I go to the community downstairs on time to chat with people, talk about my excellent son-in-law, and brag about how lucky my daughter is to have met good in-laws.
Everything is given the best!
"You don't know, my future in-laws are so nice, and they treat our Xiaoyao very well, and they use the best of everything for her."
"I heard that their family is well off?" someone asked curiously.
"Yes, the conditions are very good. I own a company, live in a villa, and have a nanny to take care of my daily life." Lin Cuihua said proudly.
"With such good conditions, Xiaoyao will definitely enjoy a good life if she marries him." Others expressed their envy.
"That's right. My Xiaoyao has been obedient and sensible since she was young. Now that she has found such a good home, I feel relieved." Lin Cuihua smiled from ear to ear.
In this way, Lin Cuihua became a celebrity in the community. Everyone knew that she had a good daughter and a good husband. She also never tired of showing off to others, as if all this was her credit.
On the other side, Joanna was busy all the time. Her only son was getting married. Although he married someone from a humble family, their family's face could not be lost, so she had to take care of everything!
"Hubby, didn't your brother say he was here too? When are you going to meet him? And by the way, invite him to the wedding! As an uncle, you can't be stingy!"
While Joanna was writing down and calculating the guests to be invited, she was talking to Murong Yunhao about Murong Yunhai.
