I'm getting married. My daughter-in-law is from Jiaozhou, Qingdao, and she is going to get engaged there, because I am from Tengzhou, Shandong Province, and I don't know what to pay attention to there. Bride price is a must. I gave her the money along with the date and engagement. Because the woman didn't distribute the dowry, she gave it a little less, 38,800 each.

I paid for three gold medals, furniture and so on. Because the woman's home is far away and there is no dowry, she gives less money. The bonus depends on her personal wealth. Generally in JIAOZHOU, between1001-100000. If the family is good, she can give more, if not, she can buy a suit for her uncle.

You said you brought 6 packets of biscuits, 6 packets of sugar, steamed bread and meat with you on the same day. You don't need to get engaged first. The money for a woman to meet a man for the first time is generally 6000 yuan.

In fact, the money mainly depends on your wife. Your daughter-in-law will discuss it with her family. When a friend of mine got married, the family didn't give her money, so she bought something. Let your daughter-in-law communicate with her. Besides, you are not from Jiaozhou, so you don't know the customs. There's no shame in asking her.
