C1105 The Betrothal Gifts Were Divided
This Maotai was brought up by Zhao Zhonghua. He had heard Zhang Muye mention on the phone that Zhang Jianguo liked drinking. Especially Maotai. In the past, he could not afford to drink. Later, Zhang Muye brought some Maotai home. Zhang Jianguo couldn't bear to part with it. When he drank alone, he would always take it out to have a taste when it was especially meaningful, or when it was New Year's Eve. Only the most important guests would come. Zhang Jianguo took it out to treat it.
Zhao Zhonghua had also heard from Zhang Muye that Zhang Jianguo liked to drink, but he was reluctant to drink expensive wine. Therefore, Zhao Zhonghua specially got a few boxes of Maotai wine from special channels and sent them over by air.
Zhao Zhonghua's Maotai wine was a precious item. It was a Sunflower brand Maotai wine that had been kept for decades. Back then, it had only been produced for a few hundred tons. Now, in the auction house, the price of one bottle was about 1.2 million, and there was no market for it.
However, Zhao Zhonghua was generous. He didn't send one bottle, but a few boxes.
However, Zhang Jianguo didn't know how precious these Maotai were. That night, he took one bottle and opened it. He felt that it was full of flavor, even more exciting than an ordinary Maotai. Today, he took it out again.
To Zhao Zhonghua's social status, drinking this kind of wine wouldn't hurt him too much. However, Liang's father was a little suspicious when he saw this sunflower brand Maotai wine. Liang's father frowned when he saw Zhang Jianguo fill up the wine. "My dear, where did you buy this wine?"
Zhang Jianguo shook his head and said, "My brother gave it to me. He gave me a few big boxes!"
Liang's father smiled and said to Zhao Zhonghua, "Brother Zhao, you need to buy something decent to buy fake wine, right? You actually bought the '73 Sunflower Maotai? Brother, do you know how much it costs to buy a bottle of this Maotai?"
Zhang Jianguo asked curiously, "How much?"
"This is the number." Liang's father stretched out his hand and gestured. Zhang Jianguo said in shock, "12,000?"
Liang's father shook his head. "Wrong, 120,000, and it is priceless. You can't buy it even if you want to. It has been collected by others to give gifts. If you take the whole box, I'm afraid you will be able to bring the entire national inventory. " As he spoke, he laughed. The hidden lines were very obvious. Didn't Zhao Zhonghua buy fake wine?
Liang's Mother also said, "There are too many fake wine and fake cigarettes in the world now. You must recognize them! If you really want to drink Maotai, ask our Elder Liang to bring you a few bottles. They are all authentic Maotai. Those bosses will treat you. "
However, Liang's father shook his head slightly. "Nowadays, maotai is a special supplier. The annual production is also very limited. A short-haired commoner can bring one or two bottles of Maotai to burn high incense. How can they bring much?"
There was a sense of superiority in his words.
However, Zhang Jianguo shook his head and said, "I don't think so. How can big brother bring fake goods? Besides, try this wine. It tastes less aged than Maotai wine. That taste is much better. "
Liang's father nodded and took a small sip. He felt that the taste was indeed very pure. It made him feel like he had forgotten to return. If he really had to say the difference between the two, the only difference would be that it was better to drink and more fragrant.
Could it be... that the taste of fake wine could be so good now? It was even better than the taste of real wine?
"Good! Great!"
However, they were still people on the scene. Although they were sure that the Maotai brought by Zhao Zhonghua was fake, after all, Liang's father couldn't hold on any longer, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to go on the stage.
Even if he was promoted to become a commoner, wouldn't he still have some face? Even though they had seen Zhang Meng's original family and did not have much dignity, they did not feel much at ease about this marriage, but at least they could not make things difficult for her.
Zhang Jianguo smiled. "As I said, this wine tastes really good."
Zhao Zhonghua could tell that Liang's father didn't believe him, but he didn't care. With his status, he wouldn't care about such losses.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes. The crowd was chatting quite happily when Liang's Mother said, "My dear family, who cooked these dishes?"
"My sister." Cui Ping said and placed all the credit on Liu Rujun. Liang's Mother's face revealed some disappointment, "Is that so? This meal is really very delicious. Especially this dish, what is it called again?"
Liu Rujun said, " It's called Jade Rabbit Meat. "
"Yes, yes, yes. I was fortunate enough to accompany my family's Elder Liang to attend events in the province. I heard that it was a national banquet to entertain foreign guests back then! I didn't expect that big sister would actually know how to cook? Could it be that the big sister used to be a chef?"
Liu Rujun shook her head and said with a smile," I have nothing to do and have learned some cooking skills from a chef. "
"Then it means that the apprentice hasn't graduated yet!" Liang's Mother said, "Ah, actually, I also want to learn how to cook, but I can't bear that kind of suffering. My family's Elder Liang also said that it would be fine if the staff were to cook, so up until now, I still don't know how to cook. Oh right, does Mengmeng know how to cook? "
Cui Ping said, "The dishes that Mengmeng cooked are even better than mine."
Liang's Mother immediately laughed. "Good! Good! That's good! Then Auntie will have to try your cooking skills in the future. Although there is an auntie at home as a chef, she will not be able to eat as comfortably as her family!"
Cui Ping also said, "It's like this, in-laws. I think that young people nowadays have different views from us elders. If we really get married in the future and can live separately, it is best to live separately. Otherwise, it might cause conflicts. "1
Liang's Mother said, "This... When the time comes, we will also ask the child's opinion!" She did not give a direct answer, and it could be considered to have passed.
At this time, Liang's Mother said again. "Oh right, in-laws. According to the customs on our side, if this marriage is decided, we will give you two thousand yuan first. It will be considered as an engagement. If you don't have any objections, please accept it." After saying that, he took out a red packet.
Liang Wei, who was beside him, was stunned. Actually, according to the customs of Liang Wei's family, an engagement usually cost five thousand yuan. In addition to that, they also had to buy some gold and jewelry. If they didn't buy it, the engagement would be at least eight thousand yuan. Furthermore, they had discussed this beforehand. But what did he mean by 2000 now?
Thus, Liang Wei gently touched his mother, but his mother glared at him. Liang Wei did not dare to resist his mother, so he tacitly agreed.
As for the Jinnan City, there was actually a wedding booking. With that said, the number was about seven or eight thousand. Two thousand was really small. However, he only thought that this was a custom of Liang Wei's family, so he didn't say anything. Cui Ping also said, "You are too polite, you are too polite!"
Seeing Cui Ping so happy, Liang's Mother thought that she had given too much. She was proud and at the same time felt a little heartache. If she had known earlier, she would have given less.
"This is what we should do. As for the future, if Mengmeng and our family's Wei Wei really get married, the wedding gift will be at least thirty thousand."
Liang Wei's eyes widened again. They had clearly agreed to give him two hundred thousand as a wedding gift. Why did he only give him thirty thousand now? Not to mention their city, even the standards of the Jinnan City were not up to par!
