Chapter 171 The days are still long

Hu Xiaoman returned home, then took the key and said to Lu Jianghe: "Come here."

After saying that, she took the key and stopped at the cabin next to her.

Lu Jianghe looked at the locked door and said, "You have been locking your house. What is inside? You never let me see it before, but today you plan to let me see it?"

This room has been locked since it was renovated.

Hu Xiaoman gave him only two keys, one was the key to the main door, and the other was the key to the door.

However, there is no key to the cottage door, and it cannot be seen from outside, and the windows are blocked by curtains and cannot be seen.

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiaoman smiled, "Why, are you still curious about these?"

"I'm not curious, I just thought, why are you doing with the door locked?" Lu Jianghe thought to himself, could he be guarding against himself?

In order to satisfy his curiosity, Hu Xiaoman opened the door with the key.

The room was pitch black, and after turning on the dim lights, the things inside came into view.

Lu Jianghe was a little surprised and looked at these things and asked, "Why are you buying so many things?"

There are many things in the house, in addition to the new bedding, there are also two leather boxes, some canned cigarettes and white wine.

Hu Xiaoman sighed and said, "This is the dowry I prepared for myself, but I don't know where you live in, so there are also repetitions, such as new bedding."

I read the list of Lu’s betrothal gifts before, and I wrote several beddings, but only two of them could not cover them.

She ordered the bedding online, and the cotton is the best one.

Lu Jianghe looked at her and suddenly felt a little distressed. How could his daughter prepare her dowry? This should be prepared by her parents' family.

And even if Hu Xiaoman doesn't prepare for a dowry, he will marry Hu Xiaoman.

Because he only loves one person.

"Xiaoman, it's the same if you don't have to prepare a dowry. I never care about these things, you know." Lu Jianghe's tone was sincere and he was telling the truth.

Hu Xiaoman shook his head and refused, "That's different. When you get married, your family values ​​me, and I must do what I can do."

"There will be a long time in the future. Although we don't care what others say, we must have rules."

After hearing what she said, Lu Jianghe did not continue to persuade him. After all, this marriage is a big deal, and he will only be like this in his life.

Hu Xiaoman counted it, two beds of bedding, two pairs of leather shoes for men and women, two sets of new clothes for each person, and one watch for each person.

The suitcase is filled with clothes and shoes, because they are new, they are all put together.

Hu Xiaoman was not prepared for other large items. After all, refrigerators, washing machines and TVs cannot appear now, so there are no such things.

The two of them studied it and then went back to sleep.

The next day, Hu Xiaoman went to work as usual, but since the wedding date was set, he had to ask for leave and notify him in advance.

When I heard about holding a wedding, I gave me five days off.

"Congratulations to you, Director Hu, you must have a good holiday. Remember to bring wedding candy when you come back."

Hu Xiaoman smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, you will definitely bring the wedding candy back!"

Because they are all in the same office building, everyone knows about this soon.

Director Jin and the other three came over to congratulate her.

"Congratulations, Director Hu, I didn't say anything about getting married, and we also let us hear this news from others."

Director Jin seemed to be picky, but he still had a smile on his face.

Hu Xiaoman sighed and said, "Oh, don't mention it, it's too late? Don't worry, you can't escape, remember to go to the wedding banquet."

The three of them congratulated each other, which was a rare happy event in their office.

Since I found out that I could not go abroad, the two officials have been very negative.

But this is a rare happy event, so everyone should be happier.

Hu Xiaoman sent someone out and then came back to sit down and rest.

There is nothing wrong with my work recently. Director Jin has two other officials to deal with small matters, and there are no major matters.

The Chinese New Year is coming, and everything has been resolved in advance.

She glanced at the time and remembered Hu Qinghai's words yesterday. She asked herself to discuss the matter, but she didn't know what to discuss.

After thinking about it, Hu Xiaoman thought it would be better to go. No matter what, what if this really prepares a dowry for him and repeats it again?

There are too many things now, and she doesn't know how to use them.

After work, she went directly to the Hu family.

The old couple came over as soon as they had dinner.

"Xiaoman is here?" Hu Qinghai said happily, "I haven't eaten yet? I haven't prepared any good food, can I take a bite?"

After saying that, he asked Zhang Chunxia to get the dishes and chopsticks.

"No need, I'll leave after that, you can eat." Hu Xiaoman didn't agree. She just went back to have dinner in the evening.

It’s not that I dislike it. After all, Zhang Chunxia is not very good, but her cooking skills are very good.

Zhang Chunxia seemed to have not heard what she said, so she went to get the dishes and chopsticks.

There was no way, Hu Xiaoman sat down and asked, "What did you discuss yesterday?"

Hu Qinghai put down his chopsticks and said, "Look, the Lu family prepared a betrothal gift for you is thick enough. Although our family is not a wealthy family, we should also return the gift accordingly."

"I have discussed with your mother. We will give you a dowry, a bicycle. I don't have much ability, so don't dislike this."

No matter how cheap a 28-bar is, it will cost 1100 yuan.

These days, it’s easy to earn 18 yuan, but it’s not easy to save 180 yuan.

Hu Xiaoman knew that they had some savings, so they were deducted bit by bit.

From the day she broke off relations with the Hu family, she didn't want to receive these favors.

After thinking about it, she shook her head and refused, "No, I'm ready for the dowry myself, you don't have to leave again."

Although there are not many things she can take out, they are enough to support the storefront.

Upon hearing this, Hu Qinghai frowned, "Xiaoman, Dad knows that you are unwilling to spend your family's money, but it also concerns the face of the Hu family. You don't want it, but if we don't take it, that's not good, what will others think of us?"

Not to mention neighbors, the Lu family would look down on them.

A person lives a face and a tree live a skin, but he cannot be shameless.

Hu Xiaoman was silent and didn't say anything. Anyway, Hu Qinghai had one thing right, she just didn't want to spend the money of the Hu family.

Zhang Chunxia served her a meal and said, "She shouldn't pull her down! She's saving her money."

This is really funny. She, Zhang Chunxia, ​​has been stingy all her life and is rare to be generous. She didn't buy a bicycle even if she married a wife, and gave her daughter a dowry.

This family is not interested!

"You can't stop you! You can't even block your mouth even if you eat!" Hu Qinghai glared at her.
