Chapter 945 - Motorcycle Pick-up
Wang Xiaoshuang's father has already experienced a wife cheating, if the wife he marries in the future is still the same virtue, it is estimated that he will be very difficult to bear this blow again, in case he tells the ugly things that Wang Xiaoshuang's mother has done in addition to resentment, how will Wang Xiaoshuang's sisters gain a foothold in the hope new area in the future?
Niu Xiaoqiang quickly figured out what was at stake, and for Wang Xiaoshuang's sake, he immediately nodded: "No problem, your father should come over tomorrow to congratulate, and I will talk to him personally at that time, if he is still obsessed, I will find someone to investigate the woman and see if she is as vicious as the rumors say." ”
Wang Xiaoshuang nodded and said thank you, the four of them ate a little food at noon, and then helped choose vegetables in the afternoon, and worked until four o'clock in the afternoon, and finally finished all the work.
Niu Xiaoqiang was just about to sit and rest for a while, when the second sister Niu Xiaxiang suddenly came over: "Little brother, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”
Discussing it is actually the meaning of finding someone to help, Niu Xiaoqiang saw a hint of embarrassment in the second sister's smile, and couldn't help but be curious: "Sister, what do you want me to do?"
"Zhou Kai is going to come to our house tomorrow morning to pick up relatives, he wants to get a motorcycle team, but the people he knows can only get four motorcycles, you have a wide range of people, can you help find four more cars to make up eight? This number is more auspicious. ”
Pick-up in Oyama Town is generally by bicycle, the best is to drive a tractor to pick up relatives, and the matter of motorcycle pick-up has never happened. Niu Xiaxiang wanted to make up eight motorcycles, obviously trying to earn face for herself.
Niu Xiaoqiang did not object to this, he nodded: "No problem, this matter is on me." ”
Niu Xiaxiang thanked him and hurriedly turned around to deal with other things.
Niu Xiaoqiang called Fang Dongping and asked Fang Dongping to help arrange it. Fang Dongping is familiar with the situation in the factory, knows who has a motorcycle, and is the factory director, others will definitely sell his face.
Niu Xiaoqiang has not been at home for half a year, and he doesn't know much about the situation in this area, otherwise he would definitely not trouble Fang Dongping.
After explaining the matter clearly, Niu Xiaoqiang sat on the chair and kneaded his sore neck. After sitting for a long time, Niu Dazhuang and Sun Mei walked in. The two of them were holding more than a dozen red envelopes in their hands, and they entered the house to keep accounts.
As long as it is a gift from someone else, you need to keep a clear account of it, so that when people do things in the future, you can return the favor to others according to the account.
Niu Dazhuang took out a small notebook and put it on the table, Sun Mei reported the name on the red envelope and the amount of gift money, and he recorded them one by one.
When they finished recording, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but ask, "Dad, how much gift money did we receive?"
"So far, I have received almost 3,000 yuan, and more people will come to send love tomorrow, so I should be able to receive more than 7,000 yuan in total. ”
Niu Xiaoqiang was a little surprised, he was not surprised by the number of seven thousand yuan, but he didn't expect that there were so many people who gave gifts.
According to the local customs and habits of Aoshan Town, the most gift is a few cents, if the relationship is closer, three or five yuan may be given, if you make a rough estimate according to this number, there are at least one or two thousand people who come to give gifts when the second sister gets married.
One or two thousand people represent one or two thousand families, which is not a small number, and one or two hundred tables must be set up just for the banquet.
Niu Dazhuang saw Niu Xiaoqiang's surprised look, and couldn't help laughing: "The reason why I can collect so much money is mainly because the leading cadres in the factory are more generous, the least of them also gave fifty yuan, and the most is Old Man Fang, who alone gave five hundred yuan." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang sighed, if there is a large amount of gift money to offset, the number of people who give gifts is not as many as he estimated.
"Dad, is it appropriate for us to accept such a big gift from others?"
Niu Xiaoqiang is a little worried that this will ruin the atmosphere of Aoshan Town, people are comparative, and they all love face, in case the amount of gifts is raised because of their own family, this will cause a serious burden to those families who are not too wealthy, which is not a good thing.
Niu Dazhuang knew his son's concerns, he explained with a smile: "I have already told those cadres in the factory, all the gifts they give, will not be announced to the public, so as not to cause a bad impact on others, in the future, when the gift is returned, just send it back according to the amount they send, I have no choice, those people are very insistent, I don't accept people will be unhappy, and it is not appropriate to accept it, so I can only use this method to deal with it." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "That's the only way." ”
China is a country that pays attention to courtesy, and if you don't accept the gifts given by others, you can't say anything, and it's easy to offend people. If you accept it, it's not appropriate to have too much money, which will make the happy event like taking the opportunity to make money, and the social impact is not very good.
Sun Mei leaned over and whispered, "Er, how much gift money are you going to give to your second sister?" Your money has been handed over to the family, you just say a number, and my mother will help you send the money." ”
It stands to reason that Niu Xiaoqiang has not yet started a family, and he is the youngest child in the family, and his sister does not need him to give gifts when she gets married.
However, Niu Xiaoqiang has long said that no matter which sister gets married, he will express it. He had already given a gift when the eldest sister got married last year, and now it is the second sister's turn to get married, and he will definitely not be able to say it if he doesn't say it.
Of course, Niu Xiaoqiang would not tell his parents about giving the second sister 10,000 yuan in private, otherwise it would definitely cause an uproar. He smiled slightly: "Mom, you just send it to me according to last year's standards." ”
Sun Mei nodded slightly: "The gift money you gave to your eldest sister last year was 1,000 yuan, plus the money to buy clothes for your eldest sister, it was about 1,500 yuan, so I will help you send 1,500 yuan." ”
Niu Xiaoqiang has no opinion on this, even if his mother helps him send 15,000, it is nothing.
Niu Dazhuang lit a cigarette, took a puff and said in a low voice: "Son, Wu Shu and Ji." said that she was going to congratulate her tomorrow, do you think we should accept her gift?"
Wu Ping's honesty and honesty are well known, she has never paid attention to enjoying that set herself, and even her salary has been donated to the children of poor families to study, and she is reluctant to buy even a new dress when the season changes.
If Wu Ping came to congratulate, they would definitely have to give a gift, otherwise if they came empty-handed, it would be a little unreasonable.
