He understood the Wus' way of thinking. After all, the feelings of the poor were understandable. Before he made his fortune, he went to Old Li's family to propose marriage. Although Old Li's family was just starting out, compared to them, Old Yang's family was like heaven and earth. Their family didn't have any savings, and they didn't have a house. They were poor, so they went shamelessly.
Now, he might not have the courage he had back then.
Wu Xian looked at his daughter-in-law. Seeing that she did not say anything, he continued, "If I refuse just because you have more money than me, it will make me seem unreasonable."
Yang Xuewen said, "Our young generation is also very poor. We are pitifully farming in the village. We don't have much food in a year. We are uneducated and have no skills. We rely on our relatives to help us."
Wu Xian liked Yang Xuewen's attitude. At least he was different from the rich people he imagined. He did not look like a plutocrat who could live in Repulse Bay at all. He said, "Actually, there's nothing much to say about our family. As long as the two children are happy, it's fine. I opened a chicken farm and rely on my daughter to take care of it. She has worked hard all these years. I'll give her 200 thousand. It can be considered a dowry. "
Wu Pojun held back from saying anything. In fact, she knew that this was almost all the savings of the old couple. It was her brother's fault for being a prodigal.
Yang Xuewen thought about it and did not mention the betrothal gifts on his side. It was as if he was deliberately suppressing them. He just said, "Brother, don't worry. I only have this one child. I promise I'll do it well and not embarrass you."
The two men talked about the rules and procedures of engagement and marriage, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
From beginning to end, Old Madam Wu was like a Buddha. She did not interrupt at all. Only when she was about to leave did she slowly say to Li Mei beside her, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Li Mei pressed her hand and said with a smile, "In-law sister, you're welcome."
She was very happy that the marriage was settled.
Wu Pojun and Wu Poxiong looked at each other and were very surprised. Dad and the Yang family talked about so many complicated etiquettes, but Old Madam did not say anything like "everything is an illusion."
It seemed that when it came to the matter of marrying off her daughter, she could not completely listen to Bodhisattva's teachings. It was temporarily not in her heart.
Yang Huai and Wu Pojun breathed a sigh of relief. When they were on their way back, Yang Xuewen personally opened the car door for Wu Xian and walked them to the door.
Yang Huai was the chairman of the board of directors of the Wan Wen Group, the famous Diamond King Five. News of his marriage had spread like wildfire, and the media had long since arrived at the Wan Wen Hotel to investigate the wedding venue in advance.
The Wan Wen Hotel was the private property of the Yang Family. A week before the wedding, they had already stopped all reservations. The entire hotel was in a completely closed state, and only professional wedding company personnel were allowed to enter and exit.
Although it was so secretive, the media still announced the menu and pricing of the wedding banquet. There were eight dishes and a total of 125 tables.
The one who suffered the most was the Woo Family. Without the strict security measures of the Yang Family, there were reporters circling their house every day. In the end, they had no choice but to follow Yang Huai's arrangements and find another place for them to stay, entrusting the chicken farm to someone else.
"The chickens are so frightened that they stopped laying eggs." Wu Xian didn't expect to cause such a huge commotion. Moving into a luxurious mansion didn't make him very happy.
"How much are eggs worth?" Standing in front of the spacious swimming pool, Wu Poxiong was in high spirits. Even the way he looked at Yang Huai became more pleasing to the eye.
However, he was still a little worried. After all, the mansion wasn't his own, and he was just temporarily staying there.
He didn't expect that in the following days, he would become a winner in life.
The Yang Family gave him 50 million HKD as a wedding gift!
On the day of the wedding, the relatives of the Woo Family also gave a starting profit of 500 thousand HKD!
This made the media sigh. The rich and powerful were indeed rich and powerful. Even a wedding was a grand event of the century. Someone did a calculation and found that the wedding cost no less than 200 million HKD.
Li He stood on the lush green lawn and looked at the newlyweds. He was filled with emotions. Then, he looked at He Fang apologetically.
He Fang seemed to feel something and asked, "What's wrong? Did you find your conscience?"
Li He said, "I just wanted to say that Big Sis is finally willing to spend the capital this time."
Big Sis Li Mei and her husband were usually very thrifty and didn't have the habit of being extravagant. He didn't expect them to be so generous when it came to marrying a daughter-in-law.
He Fang asked, "Your son is getting married. What are you going to do?"
Li He glanced at Li Lan, who was standing on the stage as the best man. He sneered, "As long as he can find a girlfriend, I'll set off 200 million HKD fireworks for him."
He Fang said angrily, "How can you mock your own son like that?"
Li He said, "I'm just telling the truth."
Pan Guangcai and Liu Dazhuang walked over from the other side of the lawn. Liu Dazhuang sighed from time to time, "He's not as good as he used to be. He's not as good as he used to be."
Now that he thought about it, the wedding he organized for his son, Liu Jiawei, was simply shabby and pitiful.
Pan Guangcai said to Li He, "I've heard this 800 times since the beginning. I regret it. Why didn't I do it earlier? Didn't I tell him before that at least it'll be held in the provincial capital? Everyone will have some style. Alright, let's just hold two tables in the village. Who are you trying to fool? "
Liu Dazhuang was so ashamed that he couldn't show his face. He said angrily, "Don't talk about it anymore. I hate that there's no hole to hide in."
Looking at the reporters carrying their cameras in the field, he couldn't help but sigh.
They were both rich people, but he made his son's wedding a joke while Yang Xuewen made his son's wedding a news story?
Comparing the two, it was simply …
Yu Dehua, Shen Daoru, and the rest surrounded them. Liu Dazhuang and the rest stopped talking.
Shen Daoru said, "Mr. Yang is really generous this time. I can't help but be impressed."
Just the charter plane and transportation costs for the guests to attend the wedding were close to ten million.
Li He asked, "You can do the same for your son's wedding."
Shen Daoru said, "Sigh, it's troublesome."
His son was infatuated with a celebrity and kept flattering her, which made him very distressed. He couldn't scold or beat him, but he didn't even need to think about marrying into the Shen family.
Yu Dehua teased, "Isn't it just flattering her? What's the big deal? Be careful not to get a heart attack."
Shen Daoru said unhappily, "You don't know pain if it's not on your body."
Li He didn't chat with them. He saw that his mother had finished receiving tea from the newlyweds and had come down from the stage. She was helplessly being supported by Four and Five, so he quickly went over.
Wang Yulan was wearing a bright red silk dress. She had never interacted with so many people before, so she was obviously not used to it. She didn't know any of the celebrities, politicians, celebrities, or tycoons. No matter how the people around her flattered her, she kept smiling.
