Chapter 67 Shopping 3

Lu Jiang had an impression of the past events his father had told him.

His brother and sister-in-law got married after three matchmakers and six betrothals. Although their betrothal gifts could not be compared with those of the wealthy families in the city, they were also full of gold, jewelry, silk and satin, and his sister-in-law's dowry was also very expensive.

Brother Lu and his sister-in-law were a perfect match, with talent and beauty.

The lively scenes of the engagement and wedding are still fresh in people's memory.

Father Lu said this now, and he really felt that Feng Qingxue was wronged.

They were both sons, but their weddings were worlds apart.

Lu Jiang smiled and said, "Times are different, etiquette is different, and they cannot be compared. Qingxue is broad-minded and does not care about these things."

"Even if Xue girl doesn't care, we can't take it for granted." Father Lu thought about it and made a decision, "The things we have hidden in our family will be given to your wife after you get married. Although it is not as good as your brother's betrothal gift when he got married and the family property I gave him, it is all the things our family can take out."

Lu Jiang has always known that his family is not as poor as it seems, and he also knows where the family property is hidden, but he didn't expect that his father would be so confident to hand over the family property to Feng Qingxue, which shows how satisfied he is with Feng Qingxue.

You know, when my brother and sister-in-law got married, my father inspected for a long time before giving them the eldest brother's share of the family property.

"Dad, the situation is so tense now, don't rush to take it out. Tell Qingxue and see what she thinks." What if someone finds out if I take it out? Now there are ears everywhere.

Father Lu nodded, "Okay, let's see what Xue girl thinks."

After a pause, he took out a bunch of copper keys from his arms and handed them to Lu Jiang, "However, the gift for the first meeting must be given. Go pick two good things. Girls like jewelry, so you should pick the best. Then take out a set of gold head ornaments. In the past, gold jewelry was used when the engagement was made. Although it is not popular now, we can't not give it."

He only has one son, and Father Lu doesn't want to leave any regrets.

Lu Jiang went out and brought back two jewelry boxes, one was a rosewood carved box, and the other was an ebony mother-of-pearl box.

The rosewood carved box contained a set of red gold filigree inlaid ruby ​​head ornaments. The style is relatively old, and only wealthy families in the old days had them. In addition to earrings, rings, and bracelets, the head ornaments also include phoenix hairpins, hairpins for pressing the hairpins, gold flower hairpins, and heart-shaped hairpins, etc. There are dozens of pieces of different sizes. Fortunately, the gold is of full color, the rubies are extremely even and clean, and the filigree craftsmanship is even more exquisite.

The ebony mother-of-pearl box was slightly smaller, with red velvet inside. There were two jade bracelets wrapped in red cloth. They were made of Hetian white jade, and they were the best among them. They were flawless, like sheep fat, slightly transparent in the oiliness. The two were almost exactly the same.

"Okay, the jade bracelets are the meeting gift, and the gold jewelry is the engagement gift." Father Lu was very satisfied.

Before Feng Qingxue recognized the family, Father Lu sewed the two jewelry boxes into Lu Jiang's old military cotton-padded jacket.

The military coat that Lu Jiang gave Feng Qingxue to keep warm that day was brought by Feng Qingxue when they met at Wang's house. Lu Jiang put it on himself and smelled a little lingering fragrance at the tip of his nose, which was completely different from his own sweat.

Seeing that his father was about to speak, Lu Jiang hurriedly said: "I brought a new coat specially, and I will give it to Qingxue when we go shopping."

Father Lu nodded with satisfaction. If you treat the girl well, she will be willing to marry you.
