When a poor father gave his daughter an ordinary envelope as a wedding gift, the groom’s wealthy relatives began to laugh at such a “generous” present 😨😲
The daughter opened the envelope, read it — and silently handed it to the groom. When he saw what was inside, the groom turned pale and slowly sank into a chair… 😢
The wedding was held at the most expensive restaurant in the area. A large hall, white tablecloths, fresh flowers, music. Everything looked rich and luxurious.
The groom’s relatives occupied almost the entire hall — confident people in expensive suits, laughing loudly, raising their glasses, feeling like the owners of the celebration.
On the bride’s side, there were few guests. A couple of friends, distant relatives, a neighbor who had helped with the dress. The bride’s father sat in a corner of the table. Wearing an old jacket, with hands worn from hard work. He barely spoke, didn’t eat.
The groom’s mother had disliked the bride from the very beginning. And she didn’t hide it at all. Not because the bride was bad, rude, or lazy. No.
Only because she came from a poor family.
For her, this was the greatest sin. The bride’s mother had died long ago, and her father was a simple worker, with no titles and no famous last name.
In her eyes, such a girl could never be worthy of her son.
She tolerated her daughter-in-law — that’s exactly what she did. For her son’s sake.
The gifts followed one after another. The groom’s parents gave speeches. Then the groom’s mother solemnly presented the keys to an apartment.
The hall burst into applause. Immediately afterward, another relative handed over a thick envelope — everyone instantly understood that there was money inside.
And then the host announced:
— And now, a gift from the bride’s father.
An awkward silence fell over the hall. The father stood up. In his hands was the simplest white envelope. Thin, without a ribbon. The groom’s relatives exchanged glances and smirked.
The father approached his daughter and calmly said:
— This is for you.
The daughter opened the envelope. Inside was only a single sheet of paper. She began to read. At first, her face was calm. Then her eyes widened. She turned so pale that those sitting next to her thought she felt unwell.
The daughter finished reading and looked up at her father. He looked back at her calmly, without a smile, but with confidence. She said nothing. She simply handed the paper to the groom.
The groom took the paper in confusion and began to read. A heavy silence hung over the table.
The groom’s face changed before everyone’s eyes. First surprise, then disbelief, then shock. He read to the end — and slowly sank into the chair… Inside the envelope was… 😨😲 Continuation in the first comment 👇👇
