Seeing his partner's difficulty in answering, Lan Dazhuang suddenly panicked!

Could it be that his partner doesn’t want to get engaged to him?

By the way, I haven't made it clear about the betrothal gift yet. No girl from any family will marry a man who has nothing.

"Xiaochu, I grew up in the village. I don't know much about the rules of your county. The bride price required here..."

"It doesn't matter how much the bride price is." Tang Chu, who was hesitating whether to get engaged so soon, subconsciously answered after hearing Lan Dazhuang's words.

She really doesn't care how much the bride price is, as long as the man treats her well and her life goes well.

She felt that even though Lan Ande was from a rural area and might not have much ability, it didn't matter.

What she wants is Lan Ander, not money.

Besides, her current job is very good, with a monthly salary of fifty or sixty yuan, and other benefits and bonuses during the New Year, so she can afford to support the family by herself.

At the beginning of Tang Dynasty, he never thought that Lan Ande could make a lot of money because he was Factory Director Lan's eldest brother.

The money that Director Lan earned was earned by Director Lan himself and had nothing to do with his brothers at home. She still knew this very clearly.

Lan Dazhuang heard that his partner didn't care about the amount of the bride price.

Then he’ll just watch and get ready~!

"As for the bride price, my parents are old and I plan to take it myself. Do you think five hundred is okay?"

"Watches, bicycles, and sewing machines are the three major items. Except for the sewing machine, I probably won't use it at home. I'll buy the other two items depending on which brands you like."

Lan Dazhuang spoke seriously and with a sincere attitude.

Although he doesn't have much money now, he has the strength, is willing to work, and can make money.

Engagement is a big deal, and he will not wrong his partner. For this matter, he will open his mouth with his little sister and borrow some money first to deal with the emergency.

Judging from the current situation of free-range chicken farms, he will be able to pay back the money in less than a year.

Although the four brothers and sisters still had a few hundred dollars left over from the money they had pooled together, that money was to be kept for the construction of the pheasant farm and orchard, and he would not touch it arbitrarily.

In the early Tang Dynasty, I originally thought that the betrothal gift in rural areas would be at most one hundred, three big items, etc. I didn't even think about it.

But now, if Lan Ande asks for five hundred, he will buy her a bicycle and a watch?

Even if she gets married in the county town, the bride price is only 200, maybe 300 at most. If she really takes 500 as a gift, I wonder how she will be envied by her relatives~!

People in the early Tang Dynasty were not vain people, but when their daughter's family got married, they still wanted to be in a good position and be praised by others.

She thought for a while and said, "No need to pay five hundred, just three hundred. As for watches and bicycles, I am the secretary to the factory director, and the watch factory has provided them for me. I have paid my own salary and saved money for bicycles, so I can just buy them myself."

In the early Tang Dynasty, people would not let others pay so much just because they were rich.

No one’s money comes from strong winds.

Lan Dazhuang was slightly startled when he heard that his partner only wanted three hundred as a gift, but not a bicycle or a watch.

Immediately, he realized that he had really found a good partner!

Since this is Xiaochu's request, of course he will agree.

In fact, Lan Dazhuang didn't care much about the amount of the bride price, because no matter how much it was, he would make more money to spend on his wife in the future.

"Then it's settled, which date should we choose for our engagement?" Lan Dazhuang happily asked his partner.

Early Tang Dynasty:?

She... seems to have been involved?

Before, she had planned to think carefully about whether to get engaged so soon, but in the end, she made the final decision on the amount of the bride price——

Early Tang Dynasty:......

But on second thought, I don't seem to have any objections to the engagement.

Since you personally agreed, then...get engaged!

When making this decision, Tang Chu cheered herself up in her heart. Since she had agreed to be with Brother Lan, it seemed that the engagement was not bad.

So in the early Tang Dynasty, he really thought seriously about the engagement date.

"Then let's set it on Labor Day in May." Tang Chu replied.

Labor is the most glorious thing, and she thought it would be very memorable to get engaged during this festival.

Lan Dazhuang thought about it and realized that it was only the beginning of March. By May, he would be able to make 300 yuan just by selling eggs.

Although the egg money belonged to the four siblings, he used it first and made up for it later. I believe his brothers and sister would agree.

"That's it." Lan Dazhuang said, smiling happily, grinning, showing a row of big white teeth, and was excited for a while.

However, he was happy because he had not forgotten the business of coming to the county town today.

Lan Dazhuang once again raised the sack containing the rooster and the basket of eggs.

"Can you collect the things now?"

Early Tang Dynasty:?

She looked at Factory Director Lan's eldest brother in confusion, and wondered if Brother Lan had made the decision to get engaged because he wanted her to accept the things he gave her...?

Although it was just a guess, Tang Chu didn't know that at this moment, she guessed correctly——

…

In the early Tang Dynasty, when he agreed to accept the chickens and eggs sent by Lan Dazhuang, on the other side, there was a toilet paper factory.

At noon, Lan Shu's dinner party was arranged in the factory cafeteria.

Secretary Qu followed Factory Director Lan's instructions and asked the cafeteria to prepare rich ingredients. He opened a small stove alone and prepared a large table of dishes.

There are six or seven meat dishes, three or four vegetarian dishes, and three large pots of soup, including chicken, duck, and fish, on the large, red-lacquered table with a very contemporary feel.

The cook in the factory canteen was hired by Deputy Director Zhu. The cook's family used to work as cooks in the canteen of the paper mill, and they are considered experienced in this industry.

Lan Shu tasted every dish and felt that Xiao Zao's cooking skills were pretty good.

Although it's not as delicious as hers, it's almost comparable to ordinary restaurants outside.

In addition to inviting Mark for today's meal, Lan Shu also invited the technician who recently studied machine maintenance with Mark to accompany him.

He Yi is a technician from the machinery factory next door. The other two are employees in the factory. One is Qin Liang and the other is Wei Cai. They are both around thirty years old.

He Yi is the youngest among the three and the best at machine maintenance.

Even if he is not an employee of his own factory, if there is a minor malfunction in the factory's machinery, if the toilet paper factory makes a call, He Yi will immediately come to help the factory solve the machine problems, and Lan Shu should treat him to a meal.

A meal to show thanks.

At the dinner table, when Lan Shu, the factory director, was present, Secretary Qu was indispensable to follow him.

Originally, Deputy Factory Director Zhu was supposed to come, but there happened to be guests at Deputy Factory Director Zhu's house at noon today, so we couldn't get together.

So six people brought soup and a dozen vegetables, which can be said to be a very rich meal~!

Mark kept saying yes to this meal.

At the dinner table, Lan Shu did not forget to learn about the development process of foreign machinery from Mark.

According to Lan Shu's description of the folding and packaging machine for making pocket toilet paper, Mark said that although their machine factory does not have that kind of machine, manufacturing it is not a problem.

She didn't place an order right away, but just learned how easy it was to make the machine.
