Chapter 128 Peach (2)
"Taozi, let's go shopping together tonight?"
Before the last class, Qiao Yingzi sent a voice message to Huang Zhitao.
"I feel a little tired. Can we go out again tomorrow?"
Huang Zhitao made an appointment with her uncle, so naturally she had no time to spend with his daughter.
"Well, you have a good rest."
Qiao Yingzi doesn't force it.
"..."
Huang Zhitao felt a little ashamed that she had lied to her good sisters just to date her uncle.
It is indeed a date.
Although it is not the kind between lovers, on this day, and it looks sneaky... it is easy for people to misunderstand.
Half past six in the evening.
Huang Zhitao stood outside the south gate, waiting for her uncle's arrival.
She put a little more thought into her makeup tonight, which further highlighted her bright beauty, charm and passion.
As for her outfit, she chose a white shirt, paired with a knitted sweater, a woolen jacket, a pair of jeans, and a pair of half-high canvas shoes.
Such a simple and neat dress was obviously influenced by Miss Lin in addition to her own preferences.
"Classmate, may I ask..."
When a boy saw her, he was immediately attracted by her, so he boldly walked over and tried to ask her for her contact information.
Unfortunately, our lovely and charming Miss Tao Zi simply ignored him, and then walked towards the car that had just parked a dozen meters away with a smile on her face.
well!
When the boy saw that the car was a model he couldn't afford, he immediately sighed and became dejected.
Yes, he is a famous college student and has a bright future, so he may not be able to buy a better car.
But the problem is that he lives in the present and doesn't understand magic, so he can't move future achievements to the present.
Therefore, he could only watch as the cute girl he fell in love with at first sight, or rather fell in love with, walked towards the black limousine step by step.
It hurts, it hurts so much...
Huang Zhitao didn't know that a boy was feeling uncomfortable because of her.
She opened the car door and greeted her uncle sweetly:
"Good evening, uncle"
Chen Tao smiled and said with concern: "It's quite cold outside, come in quickly!"
Huang Zhitao got into the passenger seat.
In Chen Tao's case, the passenger seat is not reserved for girlfriends.
Miss Lin didn't care about this at all.
She only cares about whether her specially customized big bed will be slept on by other women.
"Don't stand outside waiting for me on such a cold day in the future."
Chen Tao warned and joked:
"Nowadays, when couples are dating, most of the time the man waits for the woman, and even gets impatient. But if a man is lucky enough to be your boyfriend, Zhitao, then he probably won't have to wait so hard."
Huang Zhitao pursed her lips and smiled: "What about you, uncle? When you were dating Sister Lin, did she ask you to wait?"
Chen Tao said while driving: "Sister Lin, just like you, will wait for me on the roadside in advance. Forget it in other seasons, but in winter, I really can't bear it, so I will try my best to wait for her in advance. Of course, If you don’t listen to my advice in the future, then I will have no choice but to come over and wait for you in advance.”
Huang Zhitao's pretty face turned red, she lowered her head and said in a voice as loud as a mosquito, "I understand."
Being so shy makes her look even more attractive.
In front of the red light, Chen Tao asked:
"How about we go out for Italian food tonight?"
Huang Zhitao hummed, her eyes immediately separated from his, and then she looked out the window, trying to hide some of her emotions.
More than half an hour later, Chen Tao and Huang Zhitao arrived at an Italian restaurant near Liangma Bridge.
I didn’t ask for a private room, so I sat down by the window, where I could enjoy the night view and have a heart-to-heart talk.
But before the formal heart-to-heart talk, the two of them were attracted by the conversation of the couple at the next table.
The couple has reached the stage of discussing marriage, and their topics naturally revolve around various issues such as betrothal gifts, housework, adding names to the house, gold and diamond jewelry, and handing over salary cards.
After Chen Tao listened carefully, he summarized it as follows -
The betrothal gift must be given to the best of one's ability, and housework must be divided and cooperated; the name must be added to the fully paid house, and the salary card must be handed over.
The man was very embarrassed.
Taking the bride price as an example, he felt that 150,000 was already the best he could do. After all, he had only worked for a few years and had only so much savings.
But the woman believes that marriage is a matter between two families, and it is not enough to only count the man’s personal savings. The man’s parents must also come up with money.
As for the specific amount, it is still not an Arabic numeral, but the words "do your best".
The man was helpless and said another 200,000 yuan.
The woman was very dissatisfied.
It wasn't until the man gritted his teeth and said he wanted to add another 100,000 that the woman's voice softened a lot.
As for the dowry...
It’s a new era, and we must selectively inherit the products of the feudal era.
For example, bride price is an excellent traditional culture that must be carried forward; while dowry is feudal dross, you can do whatever you want.
Even if there is really only a dowry such as a quilt and a basin, isn't that quite practical?
The bride price has been initially discussed, and then gold and diamond jewelry... In this regard, the man has no say and can only listen to the woman's orders.
After that, there is the issue of salary cards.
There is nothing to say. The man can make the decision himself and agree directly.
The woman was quite satisfied, but it was not worthy of her happiness.
Because for her, the most troublesome thing is the name of the house.
Although she is very determined, she must ask the man's parents to transfer the house to him first and then add her name to it, so that she can feel safe.
But the man’s parents were firmly opposed.
Especially the mother-in-law-to-be, who has eaten salt and walked on more bridges than the daughter-in-law-to-be, how can she easily agree to such a request?
The man was even more helpless and could only agree to go home and persuade his parents.
The woman encouraged him that if he could meet this requirement, the bride price could be smaller.
As for whether she will make up for the missing betrothal gifts in terms of exit fees, correction fees, etc., only she knows in her heart.
"Uncle, the topic tonight is the conversation they just had."
Huang Zhitao was curious and wanted to know what Chen Tao thought of this social phenomenon.
"If the man is ready to agree, then he can find a lawyer first and pay the lawyer's fees in advance to avoid having to ask his parents for money if anything happens in the future."
Chen Tao recalled the incisive speech of a certain lawyer Xu - no thief could steal half of a house; why did you invite me? This person will have no money to pay for legal fees in the future when he gets divorced.
Huang Zhitao smiled and said, "It shouldn't be so serious, right?"
Chen Tao felt inspired and said: "Zhitao, you have been concentrating on your studies and don't understand this magical world. In this world, there are everyone, anything can happen, and there is no logic. I believe it won't take long, and you don't even have to wait. You graduate from college and you feel that.”
Now, because Chen Tao is at a higher level, he can see and live more clearly than before the time travel.
