"Sister-in-law, we don't have that much bride price here. Our tradition is usually just two sets of clothing and some simple gifts. You've given too much. Is bride price so heavy on your side?"
"Our customs are the same as yours, but I like Jingyi. This money isn't given to others; in the future, it will all be theirs. Giving more now is a token of our family's sincerity."
Mrs. Qiao was happy inside, knowing all the money would definitely go to the kids.
"Alright. Thank you, sister-in-law, for valuing Jingyi."
"A child like Jingyi is hard not to like."
Everything was arranged, and tomorrow's engagement would just be a family meal. The Qiao family's elders had passed away years ago, and the uncles and aunts weren't local, so they'd wait for the wedding announcement. The engagement wouldn't trouble them to come over. Mrs. Qiao wasn't local either; her side only had brothers left, and they'd also wait for Jingyi's wedding before being notified.
