Chapter 204: The son-in-law is the son of the richest man
In addition, 9,999 gold bars, meaning a thousand gold.
This all represents the Xiao family's respect for the Geng family, and is also Xiao Ming's great acknowledgment of his daughter-in-law Geng Jing Shu.
Next, it is that he, as a father, instead gives gifts to the two children: a house, a car, and money.
Xiao Ming gave his son and daughter-in-law a villa in almost every major city, all of them the most luxurious villas; the property deeds are stacked in piles, and exactly how many there are, even Xiao Ming himself doesn't know.
Furthermore, as for cars, Xiao Ming gave the two newlyweds one or two of the relatively luxurious cars available on the market.
Besides that, Xiao Ming also prepared a card with unlimited funds for Geng Jing Shu, as a father-in-law's tea ceremony red envelope.
Xiao Ming is so generous because he genuinely likes his daughter-in-law Geng Jing Shu from the bottom of his heart.
Despite her son Xiao Yunzhe's miserable situation, under the pressure of reality and parental opposition, she had considered leaving Xiao Yunzhe, but after becoming pregnant with his child, in order to protect the crystallization of their love, she secretly hid this fact.
A young woman, in such a situation, having lost the child, Xiao Ming can imagine what she endured at that time.
Geng Jing Shu's conduct even moved Xiao Ming, whose heart is hard to stir.
Xiao Ming loves the house and its crow; since Geng Jing Shu loves his son so much, he puts himself in her shoes and must treat her as his own child.
His children, naturally, should be given the best of everything.
Xiao Ming's approach is such that nobody could find any fault with it.
Moreover, Xiao Ming prepared everything else he could think of, all the little things.
After all this, he spent roughly five or six hundred million.
But to Xiao Ming, this is basically nothing.
Moreover, his future everything belongs to those few children; doing this is merely going through the motions, just to give the daughter-in-law's family a sufficient sense of security.
……
When the engagement day arrived.
The Geng family early on began preparing for the engagement.
Geng Jing Shu's father, Geng Tianhua, for this important engagement day, specially took his wife Sun Xuehua to have a set of formal attire custom-made.
At this moment, he was admiring his custom-made exquisite suit in the mirror.
"Jing Shu's mom, hurry up, have you notified all our relatives and friends? Let's set off now, don't let the in-laws wait too long." After finally finishing his own grooming, Geng Tianhua shouted excitedly at his wife in the room.
Today is the day of his daughter's engagement with Xiao Yunzhe; according to past customs, this engagement banquet is merely a small meeting where both sides invite their relatives.
As for the Xiao family side, there's nothing much; Geng Jing Shu had become quite familiar since she started dating Xiao Yunzhe, and they had also all met Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming's only relatives are his uncle Xiao Shan's family; Geng Jing Shu had also met them long ago.
But on the Geng family side, previously, because the two were just dating and Geng Jing Shu was the female party, it was somewhat awkward to tell relatives and friends about her dating.
Later, after Geng Tianhua met his future in-law Xiao Ming, Geng Tianhua, because Xiao Ming's status was extremely high, also didn't tell the relatives anything.
Mainly because of the gap between their families and the Xiao family, although Xiao Ming's character is truly good, the mindset of the wealthy is uncertain, and the Geng parents dare not guarantee whether Xiao Yunzhe will remain faithful to Geng Jing Shu.
Many people, once they become rich, easily forget their roots; they have seen and heard such examples.
Fortunately, the Xiao family's conduct from the beginning has left nothing to fault; seeing that Xiao Yunzhe and his father have recognized each other for not a short time, the wealthy lifestyle has also lasted quite a while, but he has always been that good to Geng Jing Shu.
As the child in Geng Jing Shu's belly grew bigger, Xiao Yunzhe also increasingly understood how to care for Geng Jing Shu; seeing this, the Geng parents were extremely delighted.
Children's happiness is the parents' greatest wish.
Soon, the relatives all arrived at the Geng household.
On the Xiao family side, Xiao Ming's uncle Xiao Shan's family had also been picked up in advance by Xiao Ming and brought to An Jin.
On the Geng Jing Shu side, after arriving at the Geng household, everyone gathered together and began discussing.
Before this, they didn't even know that Geng Jing Shu had a boyfriend; suddenly being notified of the engagement, and then seeing her belly noticeably large—about six or seven months—everyone gathered around in shock, asking questions.
"Uncle, where is my sister's boyfriend from? What does he do for work?" Geng Tianhua's young niece Geng Yu Er stepped up to him and pressed for an answer.
"Yu Er, when we get to the engagement venue later, you'll understand once you see the people." Geng Tianhua said, deliberately keeping it a mystery.
At this moment, Xiao Yunzhe had become his pride.
He thought, if his relatives see the Xiao Ming family later, they will surely all be astonished and speechless.
There is only one richest man in Wuxingguo, and only one son of the richest man; who would have thought their luck would be so good that their daughter actually married the son of Wuxingguo's richest man, so wealth and honor are inevitable.
Leaving that aside, just the fact that the son-in-law is the richest man's son is enough to make him proud when spoken of.
"I say, our Jing Shu girl is good-looking and so capable; she will surely marry into a good family." Geng Tianhua's second brother, Geng Tianzhong, walked over, feeling proud, and said: "Brother, tell us, how much betrothal gift did the groom's side give our Jing Shu girl?"
"That, we'll have to wait until we get to the engagement venue to find out." Geng Tianhua shook his head and replied.
The amount of the betrothal gift, the matchmaker invited by Xiao Ming didn't say, but given Xiao Ming's generous manner, he certainly wouldn't shortchange his daughter; this point, Geng Tianhua still trusts Xiao Ming.
Although knowing Xiao Ming wouldn't shortchange his daughter Geng Jing Shu, Geng Tianhua still felt a bit nervous in his heart.
The amount of betrothal gift given by the groom's side is proof of his financial strength, and also proof of how sincere he is toward the bride; putting it bluntly, for a family like the Xiao family that lacks no money, the betrothal gift is naturally better the more given; the more given, it shows they are more satisfied with Geng Jing Shu, and also proves whether the Xiao family respects the Geng family enough.
"These days, even if the betrothal gift isn't great, it should at least be a hundred eighty thousand; besides that, there should also be some jewelry, a house, a car, etc., we can't shortchange our Jing Shu girl." The wife of the third brother, Zheng Miaomiao, muttered.
At this moment, Geng Jing Shu, who was changing into her ceremonial attire in the room, opened the door and walked out.
At this moment, Geng Jing Shu, who was changing into formal attire in the room, opened the door and walked out.
