Rebirth 00 I earned 999 from selling lunch boxes
Chapter 384 The price of the bride price has increased again
"But if you're getting married, you have to prepare gifts, three golds, and so on. In our place, gifts are usually around 68,000 or 88,000 yuan. The specific amount depends on the man's attitude and whether he values our Li Juan."
As soon as Father Xia finished speaking, the entire He family was stunned.
The previous price for the bride price was 50,000 yuan, why has the price increased again?
He Wenlin felt that Xia's father was much more capable than Xia Lijuan. Hearing this, the amount of the bride price depended on the man's attitude and whether he valued his daughter. This threw the question back.
If the betrothal gift is lower than this amount, it means the man has a bad attitude and does not value the woman.
The He family didn't like Xia Lijuan, but since both sides had come to this point, He's father could only smile and say, "Lijuan is a good girl, and Wenhua likes her very much. My eldest brother will come in a few days, and then the two families will pick a day and sit down together to have a good talk."
Father Xia also knew that this matter could not be settled right now, he just wanted to express this idea.
"Dad, Boss Liu, Boss Guo, Boss Ma, and Boss Cen (owners of the grain and oil store) are here to send a flower basket." He Wenlin shouted, and Dad He hurried out to greet the guests.
He Wenlin's fast food restaurant has reopened, and the bosses who have had close cooperation with him must know about it.
He Wenlin's fast food restaurant purchases goods from them every day.
He Wenlin has three stores, and the combined daily demand is quite high, so they have to have a good relationship with He Wenlin.
Their timely arrival helped the adults in the He family out of trouble, allowing everyone to temporarily avoid the topic of bride price.
But they just smoked a cigarette, talked for a while and left. It was very busy in the store at this time and they couldn't stay for long.
As soon as they left, Li Jinfeng, He Hui and their son, He Yongping and He Lanying came to ask.
"Daming, Aizhen, congratulations." After He Lanying finished speaking, she turned to Old Lady He, "Auntie, congratulations, your granddaughter is so filial. She opened a supermarket for you. From now on, you really only need to sit and collect money."
Old Mrs. He smiled so hard that her teeth were exposed. "My children are really filial, but I don't expect to make money from this small shop. They are afraid that I will be bored, so they want me to have something to do."
"There is a factory here, and your family runs a fast food restaurant. So many people come and go every day, so the supermarket business must be good. Auntie, just wait to make a lot of money!"
"Hahaha, I'll lend you my good wishes. Come sit inside and have some watermelon and drinks."
He Yongping also looked at He Wenlin's six-story building with envy in his eyes: "This house is well built and spacious. Have you finished the upstairs as well?"
He's father said, "It's almost done, except that we haven't bought all the furniture and appliances yet. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors also need simple decoration, but these four floors haven't been finished yet. It will probably take another month or so to be completed."
He's father took them upstairs for a tour. The second floor was where they lived, so a large iron gate was added there. Without an access card, they couldn't get in.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors will be rented out in the future. There are too many people and too many gossips, so it is easy for trouble to occur. Therefore, a large door was added to the second floor to provide better security.
"This house is well decorated. All three bedrooms have air conditioners installed. They must have cost a lot of money," said He Lanying.
"I spent more than 10,000 yuan on four air conditioners and nearly 10,000 yuan on the kitchen range hood. Now I have no money left, so I will buy the bed, sofa, washing machine and refrigerator when I can get new ones," explained He's mother.
(Jinhuo means moving into a new house.)
"When will you enter the fire?" He Yongping asked.
He's father said, "It should be planned for the Mid-Autumn Festival. After the renovation, it will be empty for more than two months, so it should be about time."
Seeing this house, everyone felt even more unbalanced.
Especially the Xia family, they had never seen such a spacious, clean and bright house.
Xia Lifeng also said to her father: "This house looks better than Xiuru's house."
The Xiuru she was talking about was the best-off family in their village.
He Yongping said: "If we had known earlier, we would have bought a piece of land and built a house ourselves. The house we built ourselves is much bigger."
"The rent for a house this year is higher than last year. If you have some spare money, you can buy one. If you build one and don't live in it yourself, you can rent it out."
"Now I have to pay off my mortgage and have little money left to save, let alone buy a homestead."
He Shan was clamoring to buy a house at that time, so He Yongping simply mobilized the whole family to buy a big house in the Hi-Tech Zone. However, it was just a shell, and they had no money to renovate it.
Father He said, "How is Lingling's business?"
"Business is a little worse in the summer, not as good as in spring, autumn and winter."
At this time, He Hui also said: "My business is not doing well now. There are other people selling sticky rice now. My monthly income is a thousand yuan less than before."
I still make some money, and it's much more than other people who work for others, but I used to make around 3,000 a month, and now it's only around 2,000. I must be feeling unhappy.
Speaking of this, He Hui asked He Wenlin: "Linlin, what do you think I should do now?"
He Wenlin: "This is unavoidable. You can't stop others from selling. It's impossible to have a unique business. You can only insist on making good products and providing better service attitude, so that you can have repeat customers."
"Linlin, I want to learn how to make wontons. How much is the tuition?" He Hui said, "My mom is here too. Can she learn how to make wontons with me?"
He Wenlin said generously: "Sure, I won't charge you for learning how to make wontons. You can come to my breakfast shop to learn when it's convenient for you."
Wontons are quite simple and can be learned in one day. We are all neighbors, so He Wenlin will not charge tuition. But if you want to learn to make steamed dumplings, etc., then He Wenlin will charge tuition.
After visiting the new house, everyone returned to the fast food restaurant downstairs.
At this time, He Qian and her brother also came over carrying watermelons and rice dumplings.
Everyone was quite surprised by their arrival.
Except for the Xia family, everyone else knew the relationship between He Wenlin's family and He Xing's family. Until now, the two adults have never spoken to each other. They did not come to pay New Year's greetings to Old Mrs. He during the Spring Festival, but now they actually sent their two little ones to celebrate the festival.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, He Wenlin invited the man into the house and greeted him.
"Linlin, your family has changed so much. You are amazing. You have built a six-story building in just one year. I admire you so much." He Qian looked around with envy and admiration.
"Why are you here?" He Wenlin brought two bottles of Coke to the siblings.
He Qian was young and not cunning, so she told He Wenlin the truth: "You sent me a cake that day, and I told my mother when I got home. My mother asked me to come and send it today."
When He Wenlin heard this, she felt that Liang Xiaoying might want to reconcile.
But is this possible?
She was polite to He Qian and her brother, but that didn't mean she could still be good friends with them, and it was even more impossible for her to reconcile with their family!!
