Chapter 361 (1/2)
He stood there quietly and smiling, just like the king watching the slaves lie on the ground picking up food scraps.
After ye Zili and Xu Yueyue finally finished collecting the money, he cordially, warmly and sincerely invited the couple to have a luxurious dinner made by their chef, and then watched them leave.
On the way back, ye Zili and Xu Yueyue touch their plump bellies, and their bags full of one million cash. They are wary of being robbed and complain to each other.
”Why are you so stupid? Why do you say one million is enough? Why don't you say that the more money, the better? That's why you are so poor that you think a million is a big sum, and you don't think what a million is to my brother-in-law! ”
”You didn't say it at the time, but now you blame me? I don't want to run this trip is all my efforts, you just accompany me to eat, drink and take money, and dare to complain about me? If you don't think it's enough, you can go back and ask him for it. I don't think he will refuse you. ”
”What do you call me? Come on, I won't quarrel with you, but I have to make it clear to you that our son will go to kindergarten next year and spend more money. In the future, you should get closer to this brother-in-law and try to make more profit from him. Otherwise, if he loses Tingting one day, we will miss the opportunity to make money... ”
”Damn it, you curse my sister to be dumped? Believe it or not
”What kind of curse? Do you really think that palace master will love Feng Tingting all his life...”
……
After their quarrel, they still sleep in the same bed when they get home. Huang Meihua and uncle Feng have no idea what they did this day.
It was not until the next evening when the family was having dinner with five stutters that ye Zili pretended to think of something and slapped his head: ”Mom, uncle Feng, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. Yesterday, the palace master invited me to have dinner with Yueyue. When we had dinner, we were given a red envelope, saying it was gift money. I have never opened the red envelope, and I don't know how much money is contained in it Give you the red envelope. ”
”Well, what else?” Feng Shu said, ”well, what era is it now? We don't pay attention to this anymore. I think I should return the gift money to Xiaogong.”
”Uncle Feng, I suggest you don't return the red envelope.” Xu Yueyue advised him, ”there is a tradition of marriage betrothal gifts in the palace master's family. If you don't accept it, it will be difficult for him to do it. Moreover, the palace master's family is really rich. This red envelope is just a formality for him. If you refuse, it seems that our family is a little hypocritical.”
”Is that so?” Uncle Feng wondered, ”Xiaogong grew up in a foreign country since childhood. Will their family have such a tradition?”
”Well, his parents also went out from country C, and their whole family are very patriotic. It's normal to keep the tradition in China.”
”Well, I'll invite him to dinner another day. Thank him.”
”Uncle Feng, I suggest you don't ask him about the gift money.” Ye Zili took the red envelope from the upstairs and put it in front of Uncle Feng. He said sincerely, ”he knows that the Feng family has no tradition of accepting betrothal gifts, and all the wedding expenses are paid by him. You advised him to save some money. The wedding was simple, so he was embarrassed to ask you about the gift money. He was afraid that you would say that he was wasting money, so he asked me and Yue Month out, please we give you the red envelope. If you mention it to him, he will be upset
”That's right, uncle Feng,” Xu Yueyue echoed. ”The palace master and Tingting will soon hold a wedding ceremony. Now it's his happiest time. This red envelope will be regarded as a profit market. You have to thank him or something. On the contrary, it seems that our family is separated from him.”
Huang Meihua, who came from the countryside, always thinks it's natural for her to marry her daughter and receive betrothal gifts. However, Feng Tingting was not born and raised by her. She didn't say much before. Now she can't help interrupting: ”Lao Feng, the palace master and we are one family. It's reasonable for her son-in-law to give a red envelope to her father-in-law. You can take it. When Ting Ting Ting gives birth to a child after a big deal of trouble You can send a big red envelope back
After thinking about it for a while, uncle Feng said cheerfully, ”yes, it's all a family. I'll take this red envelope and keep it to subsidize my family. I'll seal it back when Tingting gives birth to her baby.”
”Uncle Feng, look at the gift money in the red envelope.” Xu Yueyue pretended, ”I'm a little curious about how much the palace master sealed.”
Huang Meihua also said with a smile: ”look at this red envelope is very big. I guess gift money has been wrapped in red cloth at least three or four layers.”
The size of the red envelope is really large. It's about the size of the document bag. Moreover, it's very thick. Uncle Feng picked up the red envelope, tore it open and said jokingly, ”Oh, it's very heavy. The little Palace won't be sealed with 180000 yuan?”
As a result, he opened the seal and poured out the money inside. He was so scared that all four adults at the table were staring round and could not speak for a long time. Of course, ye Zili and Xu Yueyue pretended to be surprised.
”This, so much?” Huang Meihua was particularly surprised, ”how much money does it cost? It is estimated that there will be more than one hundred thousand? ”
There are not many betrothal gifts, which are quite different from the village standard. However, it is not popular to give betrothal gifts in the city. Moreover, the palace master doesn't look like a rich man. He paid for the wedding. How can he still provide so much money?”More than a hundred thousand.” Uncle Feng was quite surprised. He gave the stack of soft younger sister coins to the other three adults. ”You can count them and see how much money you have.”
