Chapter 889: Let’s hold 2 shows!
"Yaoyue Tower is good, I think so too." Li Mingxia said to Li Zhengde.
"I think so too. This is a big happy event for our family and also a big happy event for our Li family! It will not do without grandeur. Holding it at home will not be as grand as holding it in Yaoyue Tower." Li Zhengde said seriously.
Li Mingxia nodded, "Yes, we two thought of the same thing."
Old Master Li was very excited when he saw Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde talking in unison.
This is good for the entire Li family!
After hearing what Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde said, Li Dalang also became eager to try. If others knew that his family's affairs were all handled in Yaoyue Tower, how prestigious would that be?
but--
Although Li Dalang wanted to be in the limelight, if Li Zhengzhi's affairs could be done in the old house, he could take the opportunity to make some money from it.
Just look at how much the third brother's family values this matter and you will know how big a deal Li Zhengzhi's marriage will be!
For a moment, Li Dalang fell into a very conflicted mood, as if the matter was already a sure thing, and he would be the one in charge whether in the restaurant or in the old house.
"Mingxia, have you thought it through? It will cost a lot of money to do it in Yaoyue Tower. Why don't you listen to grandpa and do it at home. It can be done beautifully with only twenty or thirty taels of silver. Then it will definitely be the most popular thing in the surrounding villages!" Grandpa Li thought for a while and said.
Although Li Mingxia had witnessed the shamelessness of the Li family's old house many times, after hearing what Mr. Li said, Li Mingxia still subconsciously glanced at Li Sanlang.
Could it be that even in this case, Li Sanlang, the filial son, did not feel that something was wrong?
But before Li Mingxia could analyze Li Sanlang's psychological process, Mrs. Zheng couldn't wait to take over the conversation.
"What can you do with twenty or thirty taels of silver? There is nothing a poor family can do!
Can our family be the same now? At least fifty taels!" Old Mrs. Zheng said loudly!
Li Mingxia almost laughed. Fifty taels of silver?
This time even Li Sanlang found it unbelievable, he almost doubted his own ears.
"Mom, does it cost fifty taels of silver to get married at home? Didn't you only spend one tael of silver when I married my child's mother? You also said that other families only spent a few hundred coins to marry a wife, and that I have spent enough, so why does Zhengzhi need fifty taels of silver to marry a wife now?" Li Sanlang didn't even dare to look at Old Lady Zheng when he said these words. He knew that his mother would be very angry if he said these words, but he had to say them.
Old Master Li's face turned red and he took a few quick breaths. When he mentioned the twenty taels of silver just now, he was actually not sure. But he didn't expect that Old Lady Zheng was quicker than him. While he was taking a breath, Old Lady Zheng continued the conversation!
Fifty taels of silver, what a boast! If others heard it, they would probably say that the old lady was crazy. Otherwise, who in the countryside would ask for fifty taels of silver for a wedding?
But who is Mrs. Zheng? Why would she think there is something wrong with her?
She only finds excuses on others and thinks that others are wronging her.
Just like now, she didn't think it was her who asked for too much that made an honest man like Li Sanlang speak. She only felt that Li Sanlang was disobedient and unfilial and could even refute her words!
She just thinks that it was her daughter-in-law who corrupted her good son!
"For the sake of your son and your wife, you speak to your mother like this?" Old Mrs. Zheng looked at Li Sanlang with great sorrow, but this time she didn't dare to make a fuss.
It was not known whether it was because Zhang's sudden outburst just now had frightened Old Lady Zheng, or because she knew in her heart that the ones who actually paid the money were Li Mingxia's family, and if she provoked them, everything might be ruined. So now Old Lady Zheng was just looking at Li Sanlang with a condemning look, trying to wake up her filial and obedient son.
But it was no use. Li Sanlang was so shocked by the figure of fifty taels of silver that he almost lost the ability to think independently.
He muttered fifty taels of silver twice, looking like a poor middle-aged man who was overly frightened.
Li Mingxia felt a little sympathy for Li Sanlang at this moment. Anyone who is plotted against by his own mother would be pitiful, right?
"Master, with fifty taels of silver, holding a wedding at home, it must be a grand ceremony, right? Not to mention the surrounding villages, even in this town there aren't many families that can compare to ours, right?" Li Mingxia said with emotion, his eyes full of longing.
Li Zhengde also spoke up at this time, "I heard someone in the school say that his eldest brother got married in the town, and spent thirty taels of silver in total. Everyone praised his family for being a respectable family. With fifty taels of silver, they will definitely be able to have a glorious wedding. Then, as his younger brother, I will also be proud."
Mr. Li is now confused about Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde. Didn't these two people always dislike having anything to do with the Li family's old house? When they came, they were full of unhappiness. Why do they agree with what Mrs. Zheng said now?
Is it really because this is Li Zhengzhi's business that their whole family takes it very seriously?
But even so, fifty taels of silver...
This old woman is so bold to ask for it!
But if this old woman is lucky enough to make this happen, at least 40 taels of silver will be left after this matter is over! That will give the Li family a big sigh of relief! Li Dalang's wife won't have to worry anymore!
But Mr. Li changed his mind and remembered what Li Mingxia said about what happened in the restaurant.
That’s Yaoyue Tower! Even an old man like him who has rarely been to the town knows about this big restaurant. If it can really be held in Yaoyue Tower, then he, Old Li, will definitely be the envy of everyone!
Suddenly, Mr. Li could empathize with Li Dalang.
It’s so hard to choose whether to hold it at home or in a restaurant!
"If you ask me, we should hold two parties! One in the restaurant, and one at our own home. The third brother's family is not short of this little money anyway. This is the biggest happy event for our Li family in recent years. Isn't it right to have a lot of fun? Dad, do you think I'm right?" Li Dalang's eyes lit up. He felt that he had come up with a great idea, which could solve the problem that was troubling him.
You can make money and save face at the same time, how great!
The expressions of Li Sanlang and Zhang looked very funny. Both of them were so shocked that they doubted their lives and could not utter a word.
Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde hid the contempt in their eyes very well.
The drama is not over yet.
Mr. Li couldn't bring himself to say that he would hold two events.
