Chapter 304 Zhang's Provocation
"We are daughters-in-law, and our lives are miserable. It's bad enough that our lives are miserable, but our parents-in-law are also partial to us. It's the same in our family, and in your eldest house. When the eldest sister-in-law married, the betrothal gift was only six taels, but Yang Xiaoni actually got twenty taels! This is too much of an insult!"
"My eldest sister-in-law is the eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest son, and she has to endure such injustice."
Xu was stunned and her face changed slightly.
Although she was fully focused on her own small family, she was not overly concerned. If Zhang had not mentioned this, she would not have thought about it at all.
Seeing her expression, Zhang felt secretly pleased with herself, and provoked her a few more times before walking away.
However, Xu quickly came to her senses.
It's true that I'm not very happy, but it's not a big deal.
Yang Xiaoni's situation is different from hers. Her mother-in-law had to spend such a large sum of money on the betrothal gift, and she did not take the initiative to give so much to the Yang family.
The most important thing is that she has money now!
She was counting them all, and the amount she had saved was more than 100 taels. She had such a large sum of money for her own little family, and there would be more in the future, so why should she care about the 20 taels of betrothal gift?
Besides, it’s not bad for my third brother to marry Yang Xiaoni. This sister-in-law is simple and honest, and doesn’t have any brains.
She likes sisters-in-law like this!
Zhang specifically told me this, obviously she has bad intentions.
Although she had instigated Xu, Zhang still felt uncomfortable when she thought about having to give Yan's family twenty taels of silver as a betrothal gift.
The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt, and I even cried at night.
She really wanted this marriage to be cancelled.
However, Niu had already planned to find a good day to invite a matchmaker to the Yan family to propose marriage and propose marriage.
It wasn't twenty taels, the final price was fifteen taels.
Zhang was still anxious, both worried and angry.
Since it is public money, why spend it like this?
In fact, Niu was also reluctant to spend the money, but she was really satisfied with the marriage with the Yan family, and the other party had agreed to give the girl eight taels of silver as a dowry, so she gritted her teeth and agreed.
Mrs. Niu couldn't help but complain and blame the first wife.
Isn’t it all caused by the eldest wife?
The eldest wife spent twenty taels on the betrothal gift to marry Yang Xiaoni. The Yan family somehow found out about this and thought that their daughter couldn't be worse than Yang Xiaoni, right? They didn't ask for more, just twenty taels.
After much persuasion from Niu, the Yan family reluctantly gave in and agreed to fifteen taels, not even one tael less.
Niu had no choice but to agree.
Zhang saw that the matter was a done deal and was furious, but she didn't dare to do anything. She just secretly hoped that Xu from the first wife's house would make a scene.
In the end, there was no movement, and he couldn't help but secretly curse Xu for being useless.
Shao Silang's marriage was finally settled, and it was confirmed that the wedding would take place during the Spring Festival.
This big event was certain, and Niu felt relieved. She even went to the main house to show off.
Tell Fang openly and secretly: Without you, our Silang can still find a good marriage! Meiling can definitely do it too.
Fang looked down on her and said indifferently, "How great is that! Isn't your family quite wealthy? The Yan family is well-off, so this marriage is a good one!"
Niu snorted, "Of course that's good!"
Fang was not as petty as her. As long as the second and third wives were not plotting against her, she would not wish for bad things to happen to them.
Within two days, people from Le Zhengxiao's side came to transport watermelons again.
Because it rained a few days ago, the watermelons had gone bad a little and the taste was a little bland. Qiao Xuan took the initiative to lower the price, and this time she only charged forty taels of silver for two truckloads of watermelons.
