Chapter 218 The Ownership of the Dowry
"Mom, you're not going to give me any of the betrothal money, right?" Li Ju looked at Li's mother with an ugly expression.
"You silly girl, if you marry Li Dalong, you will never have to worry about food and clothing in your life. Why are you still arguing with your mother about these 500 yuan? Besides, your mother has worked hard to raise you, and you are still arguing with your mother about this betrothal money. Your mother loves you in vain!" Mother Li looked at her angry little daughter with an ugly face.
This girl is just not on the same page with her parents. Before anything happens, she's already thinking about the betrothal money.
It's really a waste of time for him to treat her so well, and she even wants to take the betrothal money to her husband's family.
"Mom, you have to consider me. You asked for so much betrothal money. If I don't bring any of it, how will Li Dalong look at me? My mother-in-law will definitely use this to bully me to death. Aren't you giving me no face?"
"If you say that, don't come to me for help if you have any problems in the future." Li Ju must fight for her own interests. Only when the money is in her own hands can it be her own money.
Li Dalong's mother is not someone who can be dealt with easily. She doesn't even have a penny of her own.
Li's mother had a gloomy face, and Li Mei acted as a background, not daring to speak.
But when she thought about how her mother only made her one piece of clothing when she got married and nothing else, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Not to mention others, the third and fourth brother's sisters-in-law all came with generous dowries when they married.
"I'll give you a hundred yuan, but I won't take care of the clothes." Mother Li was ready to give her little daughter a hundred yuan.
"That won't do!"
"Mom, you asked for a 500 yuan betrothal gift, so you only give me 100 yuan. Do you think that's appropriate?"
"At least three hundred!" Li Ju thought to herself that if she left these two hundred to her parents' home, it would be a way to repay her parents for raising her.
If she were looking for a partner in the countryside, she wouldn't have so much dowry. A few dozen yuan would be good enough. Her parents would keep 200 yuan and she would keep 300 yuan. This is quite reasonable.
She fought for all of this, so why should she only get a hundred dollars?
"Three hundred, are you crazy?" Mother Li didn't expect her little daughter to have such a big appetite.
He dared to ask for three hundred yuan at the first opening of his mouth.
"Mom, you'd better think it over carefully. If you don't agree, I won't get married. You should return the money to them." Li Ju acted like Li's mother and Old Lady Li negotiating.
"You...you are really my good daughter!" Mother Li didn't expect her youngest daughter to treat her like this.
"Mom, don't be angry." Li Mei saw that Li's mother was so angry that she covered her chest, so she hurried over to help her calm down.
"You are not a good person either. You two sisters are ungrateful!" Mother Li and her eldest daughter Li Mei also complained.
"Mom, don't be angry. My younger sister wants three hundred, so just give it to her. She's living well in her husband's family, which is better than anything else." The second son of the Li family also came to comfort Li's mother.
"You have to be my eldest son, Xiaoju. Look how much your second brother cares about you. You must remember to be kind to your maternal family in the future. You can't learn from your eldest sister who doesn't help her maternal family even though she has the ability." Mother Li taught Li Ju a lesson and did not forget to criticize Li Mei.
When Li Ju heard her mother agreed, she quickly stepped forward and took her arm. "Don't worry, Mom. I will always remember your kindness in raising me. If I have the chance, I will definitely repay you and let you and Dad live happily."
"That's better!" Li's mother didn't dare to break up with her youngest daughter, and still hoped that she could help the eldest and second sons get jobs in the city.
He counted out three hundred yuan and gave it to Li Ju, who happily put it in her pocket.
Li Mei looked at the scene of loving mother and filial son in front of her, and felt even more uncomfortable. She was the most redundant daughter of her parents.
After a few busy days, Li Ju's wedding was finally completed, and Li's mother returned home with her two sons and two hundred yuan.
Li Mei felt very guilty. An Jianmin had been causing her a lot of trouble these days and it was a thankless task. At the same time, she was also hit hard by Li's mother.
The desire for a son in my heart became stronger and stronger.
"Jianmin, I'm sorry." Li Mei coaxed the children to sleep, and the couple could finally lie in the same bed.
"Hey, forget it, it's finally over and we can live our own peaceful lives." An Jianmin did have some complaints in his heart, but there was no point in complaining. His wife felt even worse.
"Okay, I will definitely listen to you from now on." The little hand hovered over the chest under the quilt.
An Jianmin grabbed the naughty little hand. They hadn't been together for a long time, so their bodies reacted more quickly and they turned over immediately.
Time flies, and it's time for Song Qingyu to be discharged from the hospital.
An Jianmin and Feng Jiaojiao went over early to help pack up.
"Congratulations, Sister Qingyu, you can finally be discharged from the hospital." Feng Jiaojiao bought a lot of fruits.
"Thank you." Song Qingyu feels very happy now. Coming here, she has gained love, friendship, and family.
"Let's go, let's go home and send the things first, pack up, and then go to my house for dinner. Mom has already prepared the food and is waiting for you to be discharged from the hospital so that she can nourish you well." Mother An was also thinking about Song Qingyu all the time.
When Feng Jiaojiao and An Jianjun were not at home, Song Qingyu always went to help her take care of the children, and An's mother remembered it.
"I've been fattened up by my aunt during this period of time, so why do I need any supplements?" Song Qingyu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Other people lose weight when they are sick and hospitalized, but she actually gained a few pounds.
It was still An's mother and Gu Zeyuan who fed her. Gu Zeyuan would buy her any delicious food he saw in the store, and An's mother would cook different kinds of food for her every day.
She finally understood Feng Jiaojiao's happiness.
After they finished cleaning up and tidied up Song Qingyu's room, they prepared to go to Feng Jiaojiao's house.
Several people chatted and laughed along the way.
"Excuse me, is this designer Feng Jiaojiao?" a voice came.
