The Lucky Wife Reborn In the 90s Era Has A Spatial Ability - Chapter 185
185 Chapter 184, Face
As for doing business, they would talk about it in two years. When the economy started to recover, they would talk about doing business again.
For these one or two years, Li Lei will be helping farming in the greenhouse at home.
When Liang Huimei heard this, she looked very satisfied. But she still said politely, “It does not matter where you live. When her father and I married, we still lived with our parents. We only had one room, and it was still adobe. It’s already pretty good to have three rooms tile-roofed houses now.”
“The times are different now. As parents, we must try our best to give the best to the children,” Liu Guihua said with a smile and gave Li Xu a look.
!!
There were some words that she really didn’t know how to say.
She was afraid that if she said something wrong, it would make Meng Xiaoning unhappy and affect their relationship in the future.
After Li Xu received Liu Guihua’s gaze, she looked at Liang Huimei with a smile. “Auntie, although our families aren’t far from each other, the rules and customs might be slightly different. Then we’ll thoroughly follow your rules, including the betrothal gifts and procedures.”
Today’s meal was mainly about the betrothal gifts.
Speaking of the betrothal gifts, everyone perked up.
Liang Huimei said, “We only have two children in our family, and we’re not people who value sons over daughters. No matter how much the betrothal gifts are, his father and I will add some more and we’ll go back together with the dowry!”
After a pause, Liang Huimei said with a smile, “Now that everyone’s conditions are good, this betrothal gift is a meaningful matter. As long as the children live well, they can do whatever we want, don’t you agree?”
Hearing Liang Huimei’s words, Liu Guihua heaved a sigh of relief, “It’s our fortune to have such good in-laws. This betrothal gift can be considered our family’s sincerity. Speaking of which, the difference isn’t too far. Your place should be about the same as ours, right?”
“It should be about the same. Our betrothal price isn’t high. It’s only 1,200 Yuan!” Liang Huimei said with a smile!
Hearing this, Liu Guihua immediately expressed her stance, “Our side is about the same now. Then let’s go higher, let the betrothal price be 2,000 Yuan!”
Hearing Liu Guihua’s words, Liang Huimei’s expression didn’t change much. After all, this was within her expectations.
Her daughter’s conditions weren’t bad, and the Li family could be considered a kind family, so it was naturally impossible for them to give less.
However, her daughter and Li Lei had not known each other for a long time, so it will definitely not be much higher than this.
However, she was satisfied with this price. After all, the Li family had promised to buy a house for the young couple in the city.
The Meng family could see that it was Liang Huimei who made the decision. When the two families discussed matters, Meng Qingxin hardly said anything. It was all Liang Huimei who spoke.
Since the betrothal price was settled, there was nothing else to talk about.
It was nothing more than some customs. The two families matched it up, and it was almost the same.
As for the engagement date, they needed to find someone to calculate it.
After the official business was discussed, the dishes were served.
The meal could be considered a feast for the guests and hosts.
After sending off the Meng family, Li Xu brought the whole family back to her home.
When she returned, Li Xu made a special trip to the shop.
Sure enough, the shop was closed, and Zhang Kun was not there.
Then she went upstairs. She checked both houses, but Zhang Kun and the two children were not there.
Li Xu sighed and went back to her home. She put the key on the coffee table and said, “This Zhang Kun must have taken them out to squander money!”
Last night, she thought the father and son had something to hide. Sure enough, they had disappeared now that she was not at home.
“Don’t be too strict. It’s good that the children are willing to get close to Xiao Zhang!” Liu Guihua said.
Li Xu nodded and went to pour some water. Then, she looked at Li Lei. “Have you really decided to buy a house? Where do you plan to buy it?”
Li Lei nodded, “I plan to buy it in this area too. It’s close to Xiaoning’s factory. When she gets off work, she can go live there.”
Li Xu listened and asked worriedly, “Then what do you do? Go back and forth every day?”
“That’s not certain yet. Let’s buy it first,” Li Lei said in a low voice.
Li Zhiming also felt that with so much money in his hands, he might as well buy a house. Money would depreciate, but a house wouldn’t!
“Besides, there are many schools in this area. When there are children in the future, it’ll be easier to go to school,” Li Lei said.
Li Xu nodded. “Since you’ve decided, then buy it!”
As they were talking, the sound of a lock being unlocked came from outside.
Li Xu stopped talking and looked at the door calmly.
Soon, the door was opened and Zhang Kun appeared at the door with the two children.
When they entered the house and saw so many people at home, the three were stunned.
Ji Zi’ang and Zhang Kun’s actions were the same. They quickly hid the things in their hands behind their backs.
Only Ji Zixuan looked magnanimous.
He held a book in his hand and called out politely, “Hello, Grandpa, Grandma, Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle!”
As he spoke, he took the book and was about to return to his room.
After all, he was her son, so Li Xu knew him well.
If Ji Zixuan were honest, he would not have his current expression.
“Ji Zixuan, stop right there. Come over and let me take a look!” Li Xu said.
Ji Zixuan, who had already walked to the bedroom door, froze when he heard Li Xu’s words. He subconsciously looked at Zhang Kun.
This subconscious action made Li Xu freeze for a moment.
Zhang Kun looked at Li Xu embarrassedly, “I just bought him a book. It won’t delay his studies!”
Li Xu looked at the door again. Ji Zi’ang was probably holding a toy, while Zhang Kun was probably holding snacks.
In front of so many people, Li Xu was happy to give Zhang Kun some face and nodded, “Go do your homework!”
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang looked at each other in surprise and ran back to the bedroom.
Li Xu then looked at Zhang Kun and asked gently, “Have you eaten?”
Zhang Kun nodded. “Yes, have you eaten?”
“Yes, I have. I’m just waiting for my parents to decide the engagement date!” Li Xu said as she suddenly remembered something.
“Oh right, Xiao Yong, bring our parents and your brother to the department store later and buy them some clothes. When they get engaged, all the relatives and friends will be there, so they have to wear better clothes,” Li Xu instructed.
Seeing that Liu Guihua seemed to want to say something, Li Xu explained, “Buy a set of good clothes. You can wear them for several years. You can wear it from Xiao Lei’s engagement to Xiao Yong’s engagement. It’s not a waste at all.”
After Li Xu finished speaking, Liu Guihua thought for a moment. It seemed to be the case!
After resting at home for a while, Li Yong and Li Lei rode their bikes and brought Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming to the department store.
This was the first time Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming had come to such a place. The two of them couldn’t help but be dazzled.
Li Yong brought them around the department store for a few rounds before settling down to look at the clothes.
First, he bought a suit and leather shoes for Li Lei. Then, he bought a red woolen coat for Li Guihua. As for Li Zhiming, he bought a shirt and pants.
After everything was settled, the family walked out.
However, at the department store entrance, when Li Yong lifted the curtain to block the wind, he saw a face he had been thinking about day and night!
