Chapter 373: Chapter 383: US$ 1,000 Dowry

"Yes, yes, yes..." In the past, he herded cattle for the landlord family, and now he couldn’t even straighten his back in front of the landlord’s daughter. He had already cast off his serf status and was singing about it, becoming the master of his own house!

"Brother, this is the dowry we’re giving Ningning, and it’s also what my son wants. Besides, marriage is a lifelong matter, and we must give our children the best for this one thing." Xu Xianxiong rarely said something reliable.

"Okay!" Sheng Laosan nodded solemnly. "Wife, you go ahead and keep it." Ningning had been the subject of so many unsavory rumors in the village; no family was willing to marry her. Now things were looking up; her wedding would undoubtedly be celebrated with great fanfare.

In the ten miles and eight villages, which family’s daughter could receive a dowry of US$1,000?

He didn’t want a cent of that US$1,000. Not only that, but he would add another two hundred yuan at the time of the wedding. Although it was not much compared to the thousand, it was indeed his life savings.

He might go without steamed buns, but he had to keep his pride.

"Okay!" Shen Luhua also wasn’t shy and promptly put the money away. "Don’t worry. As soon as the child tells us the date of her leave, we’ll set the wedding immediately."

"Okay!"

The deal between the two families was officially settled. When they left, Zhao Lanzi insisted on bringing a lot of things with her: fruits, candy, canned goods. Sheng Laosan refused many times, but she wouldn’t take no for an answer.

As they reached the door, a black sedan stopped at the entrance.

The two families were stunned until the office director came down from the passenger seat, and they recognized him.

The car window rolled down, and Su Hai turned to the person next to him, Su Yun, "These are Xu Qigang’s family members, do you want to get out and say hello?" As the most outstanding young military leader, Xu Qigang was a rising General Star, deserving of their interaction and the respect to be paid.

Moreover, he was an old subordinate of his elder brother, and although Xu Qigang never engaged in forming cliques, strictly speaking, he was actually part of the Su Family’s direct line.

"If you want to go, then go; I don’t need to." Su Yun was still immersed in the excitement of finding her daughter, her heart unable to settle down for a long time, and she had no interest in thinking about anything else.

"Okay." Su Hai didn’t insist, as she was not in a good mood after being forcefully suppressed at the Qin Family’s and not allowed to acknowledge her daughter on the spot.

Shen Luhua originally stood shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Lanzi behind Xu Xianxiong and Mr. Sheng. When she heard the sound of the car, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her mind went blank.

"What’s wrong, in-law?" Zhao Lanzi tugged at her clothes, and Shen Luhua came back to herself.

She suddenly looked up and saw Su Hai getting out of the car. Her face immediately lost all color, and her body started to tremble slightly.

"I... I just remembered, I forgot my scarf. I’ll go get it."

"No need, I’ll get it for you."

"It’s fine, I can get it myself!" As Su Hai approached, Shen Luhua felt her heart being hoisted high. She couldn’t care less about anything else and hurriedly turned to go inside the house.

Su Hai quickly scanned the area, taking in everything around him. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, but when he looked more closely, he couldn’t see it anymore.

"Director Su!" The office director hadn’t expected Su Hai to get out of the car and said with surprise, "Let me introduce everyone."

Xu Xianxiong and Mr. Sheng both looked on eagerly; the man was clearly a high-ranking leader. The details of his rank were obscured by the overcoat, but he undoubtedly had a significant background.
