The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Zhou Bao also talked about the betrothal gift at Aunt Song Yun's house. After all, Aunt Song Yun needed to know these things.

"Aunt, give Xiuxiu 888 yuan as a betrothal gift. I will prepare it tomorrow and buy the house according to Xiuxiu's preferences."

Aunt Song Yun was stunned. Oh my God, what kind of son-in-law did Jinhua find? How could he take out so much money just by opening his mouth?

Zhou Bao saw Aunt Song Yun was in a daze and called her, "Aunt, Aunt, is there any problem?"

Aunt Song Yun came back to her senses and said, "No, it's okay. I just think you are an honest person and Xiuxiu is a good girl. You two will definitely have a good life."

"Aunt, thank you so much. I will definitely prepare a generous gift for you when we get engaged."

Aunt Song Yun was really satisfied with this young man, who was very tactful in his words and deeds.

After Zhou Bao finished chatting with Aunt Song Yun, he returned to town. He had to hurry to buy the three-turn and one-ring watch, which was not a difficult task for him.

After Zhou Bao left, Xiao Baoer asked Shen Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, have you really thought it through? Are you sure it's Zhou Bao?"

"Third sister-in-law, I believe in my third brother. Since my third brother has been friends with him for so many years and has done business with him for several years, his character should be guaranteed, and marrying him will cause less trouble."

"You think clearly. This is good. Zhou Bao is really a good person. You can't bear the hardship."

While having dinner in the evening, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng were still discussing this matter, and Dabao and Erbao understood what was going on.

"Dad, is Uncle Zhou Bao going to marry my aunt?"

Shen Zhensheng glanced at Dabao and smiled, "Son, do you like it or not?"

Dabao nodded his head, "I like it. Uncle Zhou Bao is so nice to us. He bought us a lot of things, including toys and delicious food. He also bought a little skirt for my sister."

Erbao also agreed with his brother, "Yes, Uncle Zhou Bao is also very handsome, and only a man like him can marry my aunt. The uncle who licked the plate at my grandma's house today won't do, he is too rude."

Xiao Baoer smiled and asked Erbao, "Son, how do you know he is impolite?"

"He only cares about eating and doesn't care about others. He licks the plate and doesn't pay attention to hygiene. Mom told him not to do that."

"That's amazing. This is wrong. You must not be such a child."

Xiao Baoer taught her children all kinds of rules and etiquette very well. Children can be naughty, but they must follow the proper rules in dealing with others.

"Mom, there's no more. Eat," Tuantuan finished his porridge and showed the empty bowl to his mother.

"Mom, the baby doesn't have one either, Mom," Manman also followed his brother and called mom.

Xiao Baoer served them some more porridge that had already been dried. The children all liked the yam and lean meat porridge that was cooked today.

"Wife, Zhou Bao will definitely be tied to us now. When we go to Beijing to do business, Zhou Bao can also join us."

"We are all family, he should have quite a bit of money. You can remind him to buy a house, as buying a house will increase its value."

"Okay, I'll find a chance to remind him. This kid is very smart and he'll understand it in no time."

Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng will need reliable people to help them in their business. Zhou Bao is the most suitable candidate. He is smart and has strong ability to communicate with others. Now they are a family, so as long as he is reliable, he can be used.

"Wife, I really didn't expect Xiuxiu's marriage to be settled so quickly."

"I didn't expect that either, but luckily it was Zhou Bao. That guy almost made me sick today. Even children know not to lick plates like that. Look at him, he really has no manners."

Sanbao ate his meal obediently. He could understand what his parents said, but he seldom spoke because he had to take care of his baby. He would be so sad if his baby was snatched away by his brother.

Today he spoke, which was rare, "Mom, will Auntie have her own baby in the future?"

"Yes, Auntie will have cute babies like you, what's wrong?"

Sanbao took another big bite of meat, and then said to his mother, "Mom, when auntie has a baby, can you and dad take us to buy gifts for our brothers and sisters? I have a lot of money in my piggy bank."

"Of course you can. Auntie is very good to you, so you want to be good to Auntie's baby, right?"

Sanbao nodded, "Yes, Auntie is very nice."

Children are the purest and they can directly sense who is good to them.

As soon as Zhou Bao returned to the town, he went to buy three turns and one ring. He had the tickets and money, so it was not difficult to buy things.

The brothers in the black market were curious about why he was so energetic after a trip out. As soon as he returned to the black market, he called his brothers to look for this and that in the warehouse, all of which were things needed for marriage and engagement.

After being asked, he told everyone with a proud look on his face that he was going to get engaged, and his wife was the only girl he liked, Shengge's sister.

Everyone was happy for Zhou Bao. He had been making money with his brothers all day long and had not focused on starting a family. Now he had finally found a wife, which was good news for the entire black market.

The news that Shen Xiuxiu was going to get engaged had spread throughout the village. Shen's father and mother even brought Shen Xiuxiu to tell the old man and the old lady about it. They had all met Zhou Bao and were naturally satisfied.

On the day of the engagement, all the members of the Shen family were present. There was almost no room for everyone in the yard. Shen Zhensheng and Shen Zhenjiang did not go to work either. Since she was their only sister, naturally they could not miss such an important event in life.

Zhou Bao's betrothal gift was pulled by a tractor. Big red flowers were tied to the bicycle and radio. The watch he bought was the most popular women's watch. Since Shen Xiuxiu didn't need a sewing machine, Zhou Bao added another 500 yuan to the betrothal gift.

The scale of Shen Xiuxiu's engagement was the first in the area. The betrothal gift was large, and Shen's father was a generous man. He said on the spot that the bride price would be doubled if the bride price was paid.

Yes, the Shen family is no longer starving as before, and they live such a good life, so naturally they will give their daughter a decent dowry.

Zhou Bao did not treat Aunt Song Yun badly. He brought her a piece of the best pork belly, two pounds of brown sugar, a bag of apples and two pounds of egg cake. Aunt Song Yun was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

When Zhou Bao was talking to Shen Xiuxiu alone, he also told her that she would be free after getting married, and she could live in her parents' home if she wanted to. He could travel between the town and the village without any trouble.

Shen Xiuxiu was quite satisfied with this. She worked in Xiao Baoer's factory, so it was more convenient for her to live at home. Besides, her third sister-in-law knew so many things that she had not yet learned all.

The two also discussed buying a house. Although Zhou Bao already had a large yard in the town where he lived, he had promised to buy a house in Beijing, and he didn't want to go back on his word.

"Xiu Xiu, should we buy in Beijing or Shanghai? I'll listen to you."

"Are houses in big cities more expensive? Otherwise, let's not buy one for now."

Zhou Bao couldn't stop laughing, "Don't worry about money. I earn more than you think. Otherwise, let's ask Brother Sheng and Sister-in-law before deciding."

"Row."

The two asked Shen Zhensheng for their opinions, and Shen Zhensheng suggested that they buy more houses. He also mentioned several cities to them and asked them to consider those places specifically.

The two of them trusted Shen Zhensheng more. Shen Zhensheng suggested that they buy a siheyuan house. Zhou Bao directly said that they should buy a siheyuan house, a big one, and let Shen's father and mother live with them.
