Chapter 638: Meet prospective in-law
Eldest Sister-in-law He won’t come to her in-law’s house until a week later. When she came back, she heard about it from her mother-in-law. She agreed: “We must go and see Youngest Sister’s future in-law’s house. There’s no time better than the present. Let’s go visit tomorrow morning.”
“Alright.” Mother He was very satisfied with her eldest daughter-in-law’s resolute behavior and approved.
If they want to visit, they must notify beforehand. He Mian Mian said, “I’ll call Auntie Lin.”
As soon as Eldest Sister-in-law He heard that there was a phone over there, she took it into mind.
The phone was originally from the dumpling shop. Since the dumpling shop was closed every so often, they spent some money to move it to the courtyard dwelling after they moved over.
It was currently ten o’clock in the morning. Lin Qing He and the others weren’t at home. It was the nanny who answered the phone.
“It’s Miss Mian Mian. Madam and the others are all out. Is there anything urgent? If there is, I will go to the shop and look for them.” the nanny said.
“There is nothing urgent. Just wanted to tell Auntie Lin, my mom and my eldest sister-in-law are going to visit tomorrow morning.” He Mian Mian told.
“Alright then. I’ll let Madam know when she comes back.” The nanny responded.
After hanging up the phone, He Mian Mian turned to her mom and her eldest sister-in-law: “Auntie Lin isn’t home. The nanny answered the phone. When Auntie Lin and the others go back, the nanny will tell her.”
“Their family can afford a nanny?” Eldest Sister-in-law He uttered.
“Zhou Family’s courtyard dwelling isn’t smaller than ours. It’s that Zhou Xuan is too low-key. You can’t tell that he has money at home.” He Mian Mian grinned.
A big courtyard dwelling. A sedan car. A big truck. Can an ordinary family own this?
Eldest Sister-in-law He looked at her mother-in-law: “Mom, what shall we bring with us tomorrow?”
“Does his mom drink red wine?” Mother He asked after some contemplation.
“She does. She invited me to drink last time.” He Mian Mian nodded.
Mother He decided to bring two bottles of imported red wine.
When Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai went home for lunch, they heard about it.
Third spoke, “Sister Mian Mian’s mom and eldest sister-in-law are coming to see the prospective in-law’s family situation, right?”
“It’s normal to come over and take a look.” Lin Qing He understood. Their daughter had reached the point of dating. As a parent, they must see what family conditions the man have and who was in the family.
If they encountered a group of ghosts and monsters, they got stop the loss in time?
“Eleven thousand, furniture and home appliances, three golds and one silver, and another ten thousand for the two of them to settle down.” Zhou Qing Bai opened mouth.
The eleven thousand he mentioned was pure marriage gift money. On top of the gift money, there were furniture and appliances. The three golds and one silver referred to gold necklaces, gold rings, gold bracelets, and silver bracelets.
Ten thousand for settling down was a guarantee for them to survive after marriage. These family properties were currently owned by the couple. They will definitely be left to future generations after they passed away. But at present, one matter was one matter.
It wasn’t just Second and He Mian Mian. Eldest and Weng Mei Jia was the same. In the future, Third will get the same treatment. There will be no difference.
Lin Qing He smiled: “It’s just coming over and sitting down. Not that fast yet.”
“You can discuss the matter of the engagement. Eldest will get married this year. The two of them can get engaged. It’s fine to tell their family in advance.” Zhou Qing Bai stated.
As for whether the bride got a car as dowry, he was casually mentioned it. Anyway, the dowry would be given to the two of them. Got nothing to do with the courtyard dwelling’s side.
The next day He Mian Mian drove over with Mother and her Eldest Sister-in-law in tow.
Zhou Qing Bai went to open the dumpling shop. With Lin Qing He and Third staying at home, it was enough. After all, the female side’s father didn’t come. So he didn’t have to attend.
Lin Qing He welcomed her second son’s mother-in-law. It was definitely a warm welcome. She received them and merrily spoke: “Come to think of it, my manners were lacking. I should have ask Mian Mian for a phone number and give Elder Sister a call to come over and sit down.”
“It’s all the same. It doesn’t make a difference.” When Mother He saw this prospective mother-in-law, Lin Qing He, she knew very well in her heart. No wonder this prospective mother-in-law can cultivate three high-achieving Bei University students. That temperament was especially different.
“We have disturbed Auntie today,” Eldest Sister-in-law He followed.
“No need to say that. If you want to come, I will sweep the couch and welcome you.” Lin Qing He merrily responded.
After entering the living room, He Mian Mian put the gifts on the table. Lin Qing He spoke, “Coming in person is enough. What need is there to bring gifts!”
“My mom heard me say you like to drink red wine, so she brought two bottles.” He Mian Mian curled her lips and grinned.
“Thank you, Elder Sister.” Lin Qing He smiled.
Mother He said, “It’s what I should do. Last time you got Xiao Xuan to send the sea cucumbers and abalones and I didn’t get to thank you.”
“Delicious, right? I’ll prepare some for you. Take it back with you later. It’s for you and Mian Mian’s dad to eat.” Lin Qing He jollily said.
Mother He was naturally polite.
Three women can start a play. Lin Qing He and Eldest Sister-in-law He were both able to talk about things. With the addition of Mother He, it wasn’t a cold atmosphere, even when it was the first time they meet.
From school to business. From children to education.
Third just listened at the side. He held deep admiration. They can really converse.
He was responsible for making tea and pouring water.
“Third is also very tall. But he doesn’t look like his second brother. I think his second brother is like Mom. Third should be like Dad.” Mother He merrily remarked.
“That’s right. My eldest brother and I are like our dad. My second brother and my little sister, who is in kindergarten, are like my mom. They are pretty. Got huge advantage.” Zhou Gui Lai said with expression that displayed he experienced a lot.
Mother He was amused: “Your second brother is good-looking. So are you. There is nothing to dislike.”
Zhou Gui Lai grinned, “If I can meet such a reasonable mother-in-law like Auntie, then I have to wake up smiling from dreaming.”
“Your auntie is not only a reasonable mother-in-law from son-in-law’s standpoint, but also a good mother-in-law from daughter-in-law’s standpoint.” Eldest Sister-in-law He continued after him.
The two of them praised Mother He. Mother He was overjoyed.
While He Mian Mian was greatly relieved. Her heart can settle back down.
“My eldest is going to get married this year. We plan to give a gift of eleven thousand yuan. Home appliances and furniture are all included. If we don’t need to buy it, we will exchange it for one thousand yuan and let them buy it by themselves. There is three gold and one silver, which we need to buy.” Lin Qing He mentioned.
“Dad said yesterday that there is also one hundred thousand yuan?” Zhou Gui Lai cooperatively followed behind.
“That is the settling down money for the newlyweds. One hundred thousand yuan. The three brothers all get the same amount. We’ll give it to you after you get the certificate.” Lin Qing He confirmed.
