Chapter 581： meat 2 (2/2)

Especially when there is a shortage of food, there is no good thing to send.

However, what to give depends on the wishes of the in-laws. Those with money will give more. If the conditions are not good, then send less.

Basically, the things to be sent are negotiated before the men and women!

Like the rich people in the city, the wedding will be ready for three turns.

The so-called three turns and one sound are the four major pieces. Including radios, bicycles, sewing machines and watches.

With this ”three turns and one sound”, ordinary families feel that they have lived a ”well-off” happy life. ”Three turns and one beep” is the highest standard of dowry in this era! It is also one of the important criteria for most women to choose a mate.

These things are the four family items that ordinary people dream of and want to own at this time, and they are also relatively rare. Generally, they need to be purchased with tickets. And sewing machines, bicycles and watches all turn, and the radio will ring, so it is also called ”three turns and one ring”.

Among the four major pieces, sewing machines generally refer to ”Flying Man” or ”Panda”. Bicycles generally refer to ”Phoenix”, ”Permanent” or ”Flying Pigeon”. Watches generally refer to the ”Shanghai brand”. Radio, generally refers to the ”red star” or ”red light”.

Of course, the dowry for a countryman's marriage is far from this standard. The production team has never seen anyone who can match the three-turn sound.

If nothing else, a bicycle alone costs 150 yuan.

Shanghai brand watches, although not imported watches, also cost one or two hundred yuan.

Plus the sewing machine, the radio, all together, wouldn't it cost at least 500 yuan?

In addition, things in this era are supplied by tickets. If you want to buy them, you must not only have money, but also get the corresponding tickets!

It's not easy anyway!

Therefore, only wealthy families in the city can afford such a high standard of betrothal gifts. The average countryman would not dare to dream of it, and he has only heard of it.
