Siheyuan: Open a breakfast shop and make the city cry with envy

Siheyuan.

Chen Dahai is full of confidence.

He likes Jia Xiaodang from the bottom of his heart.

From junior high school until now, even though Jia Xiaodang is married, he has never stopped liking her.

Yesterday, I came out of Jia’s house.

The 1,888 yuan dowry did scare him.

Such a high bride price has never been seen in the old city.

After returning home, Chen Dahai thought for a long time.

It was not until late at night that he decided to take out the 1,888 yuan dowry.

After working for a few years, he had a savings of about 4,000 yuan.

Although the betrothal gift is a lot, this is Jia Xiaodang!

The woman that I have always thought about and dreamed of getting.

With gritted teeth and stomped feet, Chen Dahai went to find a matchmaker early in the morning to express his thoughts.

Originally, the matchmaker wanted to persuade Chen Dahai, but seeing that the latter was so excited.

Had to give up.

This amount of money is equivalent to Chen Dahai’s salary for one and a half years.

It can be said to be full of sincerity.

From the time he left the matchmaker's house all the way to the courtyard, he was fantasizing about his married life with Jia Xiaodang.

Chen Dahai looked at the Jia family members with some honesty.

Then he took out a stack of big unity banknotes from his wallet.

"Grandma Zhang, this is 1,888 yuan. Please count it."

Seeing this stack of money, Jia Zhang couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and her eyes lit up.

Before Chen Dahai could hand it over, Jia Zhang stood up from the recliner and snatched it away.

"Okay, okay!!"

"Let me count them!"

Jia Zhang spat on her fingers and started counting the pictures one by one.

That's right.

One thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight dollars, not a penny less.

The matchmaker at the side immediately said, "Sister Zhang, Dahai has already received the betrothal gift, why don't we set a date for the wedding?"

"The eighth day after tomorrow is a good day. How about arranging for Xiaodang and Dahai to get the marriage certificate on that day? Dahai has already told me that he has found a chef for the wedding banquet. Tomorrow I will ask him to buy some wedding supplies and marry a daughter-in-law in a grand manner."

"What do you think??"

Chen Dahai and the matchmaker looked at Jia Zhang together.

Jia Zhang put the betrothal gift into her pocket.

"The eighth day, a good day." Jia Zhang said calmly.

Chen Dahai was overjoyed and quickly said, "Grandma Zhang, do you also agree to set the date for the eighth day of the first lunar month?"

"Of course, I agree."

Jia Zhang narrowed her triangular eyes.

"But before that, you have to promise me one thing. It's not easy for our Jia family to raise Jia Xiaodang. If you marry her, we will be considered a family."

"Yes, yes, we are a family!" Chen Dahai agreed without thinking.

"Grandma Zhang, no matter what, I agree! We are a family, and the Jia family's affairs are my affairs."

Bang Geng standing by was equally happy.

I thought to myself, just as my grandma said, Chen Dahai is Xiaodang's bootlicker!

As long as you ask, he will agree.

"One house. Go buy another one. It doesn't have to be too big. Just 80 square meters or more. Or buy two large tiled houses in a courtyard. Then I will agree to your marriage with Jia Xiaodang!"

A suite???

Or two large tiled houses? ?

No one mentioned buying a house yesterday.

Then Chen Dahai changed his mind and thought that Jia Zhang made this request perhaps because she was worried that Xiaodang would be wronged if she married him.

Should have a suite.

Chen Dahai nodded and said, "Grandma Zhang, I bought a house near the hospital. Although it is only about 70 square meters, it is enough for Jia Xiaodang and I to live in."

"Don't worry, I will never let Xiaodang suffer any injustice."

"Who said it was bought for Xiaodang?" Jia Zhang glanced at Chen Dahai and said coldly.

"My eldest grandson doesn't have a house yet, so I'm asking you to buy one for him!"

"One house or two tiled houses in a courtyard, as long as you agree, I will agree to your marriage."

Chen Dahai was struck by lightning! !

He was completely stunned.

Buy a house for Jia Xiaodang’s brother?

When did this custom begin in Beijing?

Since ancient times, I have only heard of helping my younger brother to start a family and build a career after marriage, but I have never heard of buying a house for my eldest brother-in-law.

Chen Dahai's face gradually became gloomy.

It is true that he likes Jia Xiaodang.

But he is not a fool, nor an idiot.

He had already paid a high betrothal gift of 1,888 yuan, so he absolutely could not accept being asked to buy an apartment!

Chen Dahai shook his head. "Grandma Zhang, you promised yesterday that as long as I paid 1,888 yuan as a gift, you would agree to my marriage to Xiaodang. Why did you suddenly change your mind now?"

"I will never agree to buy a house! Such a high gift is already my biggest concession."

Jia Zhang's face changed, her triangular eyes widened, she took a few steps forward and started pushing Chen Dahai and the other man.

"Since you don't agree, please leave."

Chen Dahai said anxiously, "Grandma Zhang, we can leave, but you have to return the betrothal gift to me, right?"

Jia Zhang began to act like a rogue.

"What kind of gift?"

"I have already agreed to your marriage with Xiaodang, but you didn't do what I asked. I won't return a cent of the betrothal gift, so get out of here right now."

???

Chen Dahai was stunned again.

This is the first time I have seen such a shameless person.

"Jia Zhang, you're asking for an exorbitant price and you're blaming me? I agreed to a high betrothal gift, but you pressed the issue again and asked for a house."

"After buying a house, you still want a car!!"

"I like Jia Xiaodang, but this is not something you can blackmail me with!"

Jia Zhang is unreasonable.

"Bah! Get out of here now!!"

"If you didn't do it yourself, don't blame me for not returning the betrothal gift!"

The atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense, and Chen Dahai couldn't help but want to step forward and snatch back the betrothal gift.

Seeing this, the matchmaker nearby hurriedly grabbed Chen Dahai.

I whispered in his ear, "Don't get excited, Dahai. We can report to the police or go to the street office."

"If you do that, she'll just lie on the ground, and you won't be able to get your money back for good."

Chen Dahai calmed down instantly.

He thought the matchmaker was right.

You can report to the police or go to the street office. There is no need to fight with scoundrels.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, just wait!!!" Chen Dahai shouted at several people.

After saying this, he left with the matchmaker.

Seeing Chen Dahai's departing back, Qin Huairu became a little anxious.

"Mom!! Why did you let him go!"

"We can talk to him about it. If it doesn't work, we can just buy a house. Maybe he will agree."

Bang Geng was also anxious and said with a sad face, "Yes, grandma. Chen Dahai is gone, who will buy me a house?"

"Why are you in such a hurry?!" Jia Zhang glanced at the two of them unhappily.

"With 1,888 yuan in my pocket, isn't it easy to buy two rooms?"

When the two heard this, they realized that this was the truth.

Jia Zhang continued slowly, "This money is for my wife Banggeng to have a baby."

"Huai Ru, wait until Sha Zhu gets off work tonight and ask him to vacate the house for Da Sun to live in. You and Sha Zhu can go to the backyard."

"If he doesn't agree, you can divorce him."
