me no have bangles..but MIL went to buy diamond necklace and bracelet thou.

my MIL wanted to get me diamond stuff too. she was surprised when i told her i want yellow gold

so bad of u to say that!

for my parents, they simplified everything into ang baos

both our families are hokkiens...

for hokkiens, need to have the pig trotters i tink. my mum said we dun eat dat (either canned or fresh) so simplified into ang baos

martell, my parents dun drink too so they simplified into ang baos oso

but i tink my inlaws gave them 1 bottle, which we used it for our dinner

all simplified versions

for ping jin, my mum only kept a small part of it and return the rest to my inlaws. my inlaws gave my parents 10 tables but my parents returned the $ to us oso and hubby and i returned the $ to my inlaws.

hokkiens got no si dian jing but they got the pair of bangles.

lol my mum say one.. if ask this ask that.. need this need that...

then tell my dad to stand up.. and say thank you.

"Er Zi, Wo Men Zou Le" (Son, We're Leaving")

lol... my mum say "sell daughter meh?" lol..

wah yours best.. everything simplify.

Yeah my In Laws want Xi Bing also. then also want roast pig

lucky never ask for dowry / 4 dian jin.. if not i think I maybe marry another girl liao.

haha.. i will look for si bing contacts then share with you.. The bridal shop white link got TW contacts on xi bing.. super expensive.. $30-$40 per box.. *faint*

4 dian jin, my hubby says my in-laws cannot afford as they are not working. so actually told him never mind then. but he insist on buying, to prevent my parents say any nasty things. so since we holds the key, we decide to buy 4 dian zuan (white gold diamonds). manage to find a good deal. $2k for the whole set.

that day my mum was asking sia, she ask if my in-laws got buy anything for me. I just answer yes, diamonds. she got comment diamonds next time no value.. i just say i like..

my MIL wanted to get me diamond stuff too. she was surprised when i told her i want yellow gold

wow, you very tradition.. haha..

i cannot stand yellow gold sia.. diamonds more suitable for me.. bling bling.. then i can wear out daily..

me no have bangles..but MIL went to buy diamond necklace and bracelet thou.

i dun mind cupcakes also.. but my mum says want my malaysia relatives to bring back lor.. unless the cakes can last for 1 week..

i got to find those wrap up nicely one. so that my malaysia relatives can bring back.

cantonese dun have si dian jin, but long feng zhuo (only see from the son side cos marrying in ma).

Roast pig is a must for cantonese. I got it from ubi. Should be reasonable price and it is very big. Man must get more strong brother for this task.

Xi bing, chinatown got a lot of shop. Must make sure the time is ok. That time my wedding is after the 7th mth. The original xi bing shop I ordered never open for business. Cos this period, they took the time to go on vacation and rest ma after the busy period of the 7th mth. Lucky found 1 shop opened and have to order cos they only prepared enough. Lucky again that time got extra.

I would still prefered Can trotter as it is more convience, easy to distribute and able to keeps for days. Not like the convention type someone has to be the butcher and slice it out. The Meat must be consume withins the next few days else ... or become to feel like the trotter.

Better $$. But I warn you oh,most men will use these threaten technic. If you ask too much $$ from me today, next time you/your daughter is going to suffer as I needed to borrow money from Ah long to give you the Ping Li. So Zi Dong alittle bit ok?
