Chapter 239 Proposal
On the morning of the fourth day of the lunar month, Grandma Yan, Yan Junwei and Yan Junchun brought a basket of gifts and a matchmaker in her fifties to Mi’s house in Xinghua Lane to propose marriage.
Wei Hongjuan welcomed her warmly, boiled hot water, brewed a pot of brown sugar ginger tea, and then brought Mi Baoguo out to talk to her foresight son-in-law and brother.
Mi Xiaoxiao put a plate of big white rabbit milk candy, a plate of fruit, and a plate of rice cake, and hid in the kitchen.
The man came to propose marriage, but her girl's house was not good, so she hid in the kitchen to prepare lunch.
There were a lot of people at noon, and Mi Xiaoxiao planned to make nine dishes and one soup, ten dishes, perfect and has a good meaning.
Take out a piece of pork belly and make a braised pork.
Cut another pound of beef and make a stir-fried beef.
The braised chicken, sausage and meatballs are all steamed in a pot.
Braised carp.
Spicy fried rabbit with spicy food.
Make another stir-fried bamboo shoot slices, a minced garlic spinach, and a big bone radish soup.
There is only one big pot at home. Mi Xiaoxiao steams the dishes first. After the dishes are steamed, then cook them. Southerners like to cook rice soup. After taking out the rice soup, they use chopsticks to tick a few eyes, put a steaming curtain on it, and put the steamed dishes on it. This way the dishes will not be cold and the rice will be suffocated.
There are two small stoves at home, and one stewed bone radish soup on one.
A stove stir-fry.
Half the dish was fried, Wei Hongjuan came in and said with a blushing face, "Xiaoxiao, mom is here to cook, you go to the main hall to accompany you Grandma Yan."
"Mom, there are only two vegetables left, I'll cook it soon."
When Wei Hongjuan saw that the meat dishes were ready and the rice was cooked, she took out the rice bowl from the cabinet and moved it, "Then mom goes to put the bowls and chopsticks."
"Mom, there is champagne in the west room, take a few bottles out to drink."
Wei Hongjuan smiled and said, "Save it for you to recognize your relatives. I will discuss with your grandmother Yan. Go to Yanjia Village to get engaged to you and Junwei on the sixth day of the day, and come to our house to recognize your relatives at the eighth day of the day. Then your uncle, aunt, cousin and cousin will come. We have to set up two tables of wine at home."
"There are three boxes, mom, take a few more bottles." I originally planned to bring a few bottles for my aunt and cousin to drink. Since I want to make a renowned wine, I will leave it at the banquet to drink.
At the dinner table, the matchmaker was very talkative and kept praising the rice for good skills and delicious cooking, and Yan Junwei would have a good taste in the future.
He also said that the Mi family is generous and cooks so much meat. She has given people the media a few decades to eat such a sumptuous meal.
Afterwards, he asked Mi Baoguo and Wei Hongjuan how much dowry they would like and what dowry they want. Then he asked how many new clothes Mi Xiaoxiao would buy on the day of the engagement?
Local customs in S City: when a man and a woman get engaged, the man wants to buy new clothes for the woman. As for how much to buy, it depends on the man’s financial strength.
Mi Baoguo said with a grim brow, "You can see the betrothal gifts and betrothal gifts. Hongjuan and I are just Xiaoxiao, this daughter. How many betrothal gifts we get will be brought back when we get married, and we will give Xiaoxiao another dowry."
"Oh, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, this in-laws is such a great person and a good father. It is such a great blessing for boy Junwei to marry your daughter." The matchmaker let out a series of laughter and praise words, which kept benefiting from her mouth.
She also wants one for such a generous and in-laws.
Unfortunately, the Mi family is thin and only one daughter, otherwise she would really want to marry her daughter in.
What a pity, it's a pity.
Grandma Yan looked at Xiaoxiao with a smile and said, "My Junwei is indeed lucky. Junwei, over the years, the money you gave to grandma has been saved for you without spending any of it, and I will just wait for this day to spend it."
