"Nannan, what do you plan to wear on your wedding day? Mommy will go buy you some fabric later."

Guo Xuqing told her husband yesterday what she needed to buy, and he went to get the things that were hard to find in the department store.

I have almost figured out everything else, except what to wear on the wedding day. I need to discuss this with my daughter.

"Mom, let me get some cloth and make it myself." Suti originally wanted to say no, as she had just made a set of festive clothes for the New Year, but then she thought that she would definitely have to wear new clothes for her wedding.

"Okay, Mom will get you some cloth." Guo Xuqing thought that the satin cloth was fine for making quilts, but it wouldn't look good for making clothes.

"Mom, I want some woolen material." Su Ti didn't want to make coats anymore, but making a piece of woolen cloth would be fine.

"Tweed?" Guo Xuqing thought this was fine, but the material was not easy to make clothes with. She thought that if it really didn't work, she would ask a tailor to make clothes.

"Mom, this is for you." Su Ti handed a stack of money to her mother.

When we got married in the countryside, my mother divided all the money in the family equally. She couldn't let the family pay twice.

"What does this mean? Your family wants you to pay for your dowry? What kind of thing is this?" Guo Xuqing looked at her silly daughter unhappily.

"Mom, this is a make-up wedding. Didn't you give me your dowry a long time ago? You loved me and asked my brother and I to split the things in the house. I remember it all."

"When you are old, I will definitely provide for you in your old age like your brother did. It will not be enough to provide more after this. You should also save some money for your old age."

Suti knew that her family loved her and her brother didn't care about these things, but she couldn't take them for granted.

It's only been a short time, and if the family holds a grand celebration, her brother's share will be taken away, which would be too much.

"Nannan, when you got married in the countryside, Mom gave you half of the things in the house. At that time, I also wanted to support you."

"But mom didn't openly prepare any dowry for you back then, so I'll make up for it this time."

"Mom only has you and your brother as children. Even if you get married, you are still my daughter. You will still have a share of the money we earn in the future."

"The bulk of the money is done behind the scenes. The things on the surface are just for show. In fact, it's only a few months' salary for a family. We can still afford it."

"Mom wanted to talk to you about this, too. The things your family gave you when you married into the countryside are indeed enough to keep you from worrying about food and drink for the rest of your life."

"But now it's different. You've married into the Li family. Apart from other things, the gift prepared by the old marshal is just average."

"Mom also knows that they gave you their entire fortune as a betrothal gift. I can't give you all of my fortune as a dowry, which is already unfair to you. Now you can't refuse to prepare some small gifts."

Guo Xuqing had always been thinking about this matter, and had discussed it with her mother in secret. They had also considered whether they should pick out something else from Linzi's half.

"Mom, you are wrong to think like that. Fortunately, I only get married once. If I got married eight or ten times, your family would be bankrupt."

"Even the Li family can't say that what you gave is wrong. We hold our heads high to marry off our daughters and our heads low to marry our daughters-in-law. Our family has a strong backbone."

"Who else can get married like me, with my parents giving me half of their fortune as a dowry? Don't feel like you owe me anything. I just feel sorry for my silly brother."

Su Ti didn't expect that her mother was still thinking about giving her more dowry. She didn't know how much stuff there was at home, but she knew her family well enough.

They love her more than anything else and would never do such a thing as to ignore the life and death of their son or daughter. They have given her more than enough.

"Silly girl has grown up, but you can't stop me from giving you a dowry. Your grandparents gave a lot of money to mom, just to make your wedding a grand occasion."

"We didn't attend the wedding in the countryside, which made us feel bad. Now we can watch you get married."

Guo Xuqing hugged her daughter's shoulders, feeling very relieved. Her daughter had grown up and become sensible, and was about to become a mother.

"Okay, I won't stop you. Mom, you've prepared enough for me. These are my confidence."

Su Ti thought about her grandparents' salary plus her parents', which was indeed only a few months' salary. It would be uncomfortable for her to stop them.

With Suti's indulgence, a lot of things came in and out of the house and were moved back in the next few days.

Grandpa and dad went around greeting people, and it seemed like they had already notified everyone they could, so it was going to be a big event.

The phone at home has been ringing non-stop these days, except at night when the phone at home rings for her.

Only then could she talk to Baichuan. Both families were exhausted in the past few days preparing for their marriage.

"Baichuan, have you prepared your clothes?" Su Ti has been researching wedding clothes these days.

If Li Baichuan was here, she could prepare it together, but it is so far away that it would be too late even if she prepared it and sent it over.

"I'm ready. I bought ready-made clothes." Li Baichuan listened to Bian Cheng's advice and chose a Zhongshan suit.

He met that guy when he went to the department store to buy things. He knew he was going to get married, so he followed him around and ran around.

There was nothing he didn't know about the streets and alleys of Beijing, which saved him a lot of trouble and helped him buy a lot of good things.

"My grandpa wants you to come early on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year and stay there for one night. We're also afraid that you'll be delayed on the road the next day and won't be able to make it."

This was Su Ti's suggestion, otherwise we would have to set off in the middle of the night and enter the gate at noon on the ninth day.

They have to rush on the road and run all the way to hold the wedding. Her grandparents are old and they definitely can't bear it.

"Wife, I've thought of this too. I plan to go there tomorrow night and arrive on the morning of the eighth day of the new year."

"We'll set off after hosting a simple going-out banquet at home, and try to arrive in the evening so we can have a good night's rest."

Li Baichuan was also thinking about this. His wife was still pregnant and she couldn't not get enough rest.

"Okay, I thought so too. How is the preparation at home now?" Su Ti thought that time was tight, her family was already in a mess, and it was probably even more chaotic over there.

"It's almost done. Grandpa has informed the higher-ups about the banquet. All we have to do is pay. The dishes and bowls will be provided by them. This saves a lot of trouble."

"There aren't many relatives at home, except for a cousin, and there's no one else. And all of grandpa and dad's comrades-in-arms have been notified one by one."

"As for the betrothal gifts, Grandpa said that many things in the house cannot be taken out. We just need to know the situation and then just do some superficial work."

"By the way, wife, I have prepared a surprise for you." Li Baichuan muttered to himself with endless words to say.
