Chapter 472: Dowry Troubles

"This is really a big trouble. If the old man knew about this, he would definitely give me a good beating!"

The middle-aged man frowned and groaned inwardly.

He knew clearly in his heart that his father doted on his daughter to the extreme.

But now that things have come to this, he can only hope that the old man will show mercy and give him some face when he returns home.

He gave a helpless smile, sat down again, and looked at Zhou Tian, ​​only to see that Zhou Tian had a rather strange expression on his face.

In order to break the awkward atmosphere, he coughed a few times, cleared his throat and said, "Okay, now you know the situation, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Zhou Tian looked at the middle-aged man's conflicted and slightly embarrassed expression, and almost said "Just let it sit, what else can I do?"

But he still held back, paused and said: "Commander, I have an idea. I will go back and discuss it with my second brother first. When we come to a conclusion, I will find a good day and let them arrange the marriage first."

Since the other party has shown his full sincerity, Zhou Tian feels that he has no reason to refuse.

Afterwards, the two discussed the matter of the second brother and Chen Yaning in detail and worked out a preliminary plan.

After finishing his meal at Cuihualou, Zhou Tian got up and said goodbye and left.

Walking out of Cuihua Building, Zhou Tian couldn't help but sigh at the ever-changing world.

Who could have thought that things would turn out so drastically for these two people whom he had not been optimistic about at the beginning? However, he was not very happy about this result, but rather full of worry.

He was very aware of the seriousness of the subsequent movement. Although he was confident that he would not be affected after so many years of careful planning, once his second brother married into the Chen family, it would be difficult for the Zhou family to stay out of it.

After getting in the car, Zhou Tian's brain was like a fast-running machine, constantly thinking about how to deal with the situation.

After much thought, he felt that the only way to avoid the impact of this nationwide movement was to stay away from the capital. However, he didn't know whether this method would work.

After returning to the research institute, Zhou Tian didn't care about anything else and went straight to the workshop.

As expected, as soon as I entered the workshop, I saw a group of technicians and workers working busily.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Tian felt guilty. He never thought that these people didn't even take a day off and came to the research institute early in the morning after he just mentioned it casually yesterday.

Since everyone was so enthusiastic, Zhou Tian didn't say anything more and immediately joined in the work.

With Zhou Tian's participation, the manufacturing speed of the bus was significantly accelerated. When he noticed that it was getting dark outside, Zhou Tian asked everyone to stop. At this time, the research and development progress of the bus had been completed by one-fifth. At this speed, the bus would be completely completed in ten days at most.

At the same time, the research and development work of the production line has not been neglected, but the progress is slightly slower than that of the bus.

After sending everyone away, Zhou Tiancai was the last one to leave the institute on his bicycle.

After returning home, Zhou Tian did not tell Zhou Hao what happened today immediately, but waited until after dinner when they returned to the yard before telling Zhou Hao what happened. When Zhou Hao heard his elder brother say that Chen Yaning also liked him, he was immediately very happy.

"Brother, are you telling the truth? Does Yaning really like me too?"

Even though his elder brother had explained it very clearly, he still couldn't believe it and asked again.

"Of course it's true, I've told you several times, and you're still asking!"

Seeing his second brother was a little too excited, Zhou Tian really wanted to punch him. He really couldn't understand, isn't it just a girl, why is it so necessary?

Of course, he automatically ignored the fact that he looked even more "exaggerated" than this when he was dating Shen Yulin.

"Brother, when do you think it would be a good time for Yaning and I to get engaged?"

After a while, Zhou Hao calmed down a little and asked impatiently.

"Wait a few days, wait for me to find a good day. You two can get engaged first, but Xiaohao, I still have to ask you, have you really thought it through?"

Seeing that his second brother had regained some of his sanity, Zhou Tian still couldn't help but worry. He knew that a wealthy family like the Chen family would have very high requirements for their son-in-law. Although he had paved the way and given guidance, his second brother's future development would definitely not be bad, but compared with the Chen family, the Zhou family's foundation was still too shallow.

"Brother, I've made up my mind!"

Zhou Hao was silent for a while, then nodded firmly. In fact, even if his elder brother didn't say it, he knew these things in his heart. But in order to marry Chen Yaning, he felt that he could still do it.

"Well, since you have made up your mind, then prepare well for the college entrance examination. I will propose to you in a few days. Don't forget your goal."

Zhou Tian put out the cigarette, stood up, patted Zhou Hao on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Zhou Hao looked at his elder brother's back, his eyes full of determination. He understood what his elder brother meant, clenched his fists tightly, and encouraged himself in his heart:

"Zhou Hao, you can do it, come on!"

Returning to the bedroom, Zhou Tian saw that his wife was still awake and was looking at him expectantly. He couldn't help but laugh and reached out to touch her face.

"You are so idle that you are even curious about your brother-in-law's gossip."

"Hehehe, I'm just concerned. Head of the household, how's the matter between my brother-in-law and Chen Yaning going?" Shen Yulin didn't care about her husband's teasing at all and asked.

"Okay, I'll take him to the Chen family to propose marriage in a few days. Wife, you stay home and look at the date. When is the best time for us to propose marriage?"

Although Zhou Tian is not a superstitious person, he still wants to choose a good day so that the Chen family can see how much they value this matter.

"That's great. I never thought my brother-in-law and Chen Yaning would be able to get together. Head of the family, you said before that they couldn't get together. You see, I was right!" Shen Yulin said proudly, "But we do have to choose the day carefully. Don't worry, I will definitely choose a good day!"

She was particularly concerned about this matter. After all, since she married Zhou Tian, ​​her brother-in-law had always been very good to her, and she also wanted to fulfill her responsibilities as a sister-in-law.

"Well, that's all for you."

Zhou Tian nodded without objection. He took off his clothes and got on the bed.

As soon as he lay down, Shen Yulin came over, lay in his arms and asked: "Boss, what do you plan to prepare for Xiaohao? The Chen family is not an ordinary family. If the gift is too little, Xiaohao will have a hard time living in the Chen family in the future."

When Zhou Jun got married, Zhou Tian gave him a courtyard house, and when Zhou Min got married, there were also many gifts. Now it was the turn of the younger brother-in-law. As Zhou Tian's younger brother, if the gift was not as good as his two cousins, it would be unreasonable.

"No!"

Zhou Tian thought for a while and said something that surprised Shen Yulin.

"What? Boss, you said you won't give it to me?"

Shen Yulin's beautiful eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Zhou Tian in surprise.

"Well, no!"

Zhou Tian nodded seriously.

In fact, he had also thought about Xiaohao's betrothal gift. If Xiaohao married the daughter of an ordinary family, he might buy them a house.

But now Xiao Hao is going to marry the daughter of the chief, which makes him a little embarrassed. After all, if he gives something, he can't think of what else he can give. If he really dares to take out antique calligraphy and paintings, the other party may not dare to accept them.

And the most important thing is that he was too high-profile. Thinking that the next movement was getting closer, he thought it would be better to keep a low profile.
