Chapter 487 Not Very Comfortable
She felt that Zhang was quite pitiful and looked down upon her brother from her natal family.
But after she got married, Zhang was full of hostility towards her, so she gave up the idea of making friends with her.
Since people hate her, why should she rush to please them? At most, they should not interfere with each other.
Anyway, when the elders are gone in the future, the property will have to be divided, so it's enough to save face.
Unexpectedly, Zhang was so mean that she instigated her mother-in-law to ask for her dowry!
Her dowry could not be compared with that of the daughters of truly wealthy families, but her parents and brothers loved her and gave her quite a few things.
There were two sets of silver jewelry, twenty pieces of good material for clothes for all four seasons, a number of other miscellaneous items, and thirty taels of silver as a dowry.
These cannot be used lightly.
Yan gritted her teeth and left quietly.
In the afternoon, Yan did not go to the main house again. Instead, she made a lot of noise in packing her dowry, deliberately attracting the attention of Niu and Zhang.
Zhang was both jealous and gloating, and said with a fake smile: "The fourth sister-in-law's dowry is really huge! The fourth sister-in-law is so lucky!"
She thought, so what? Even if there were more, they would soon no longer belong to her!
Zhang felt happy thinking that she had to give the dowry to her mother-in-law reluctantly.
Little did she know that Yan was waiting for her to speak. As long as she mentioned the word "dowry", no matter what she said, she would always take over the conversation.
Yan smiled and said, "This dowry was specially prepared for me by my parents. My mother said that after a girl gets married, the dowry is the most important guarantee, and it must be packed and kept properly. It must not be touched unless there is a famine and the whole family has no food to eat! I was not very good at packing things when I was at home, and now it's not easy to pack it. My mother said that when she comes to visit me, she will check my dowry. If she finds that I didn't pack it well and didn't listen to her and keep it well, she will teach me a lesson!"
"My mother is very fierce, I dare not disobey her!"
Niu's face suddenly looked a little uncomfortable.
Zhang felt a little strange. She always felt that Yan's words were suggestive, as if they were meant for her on purpose, but she had no evidence.
Before she could say anything, Yan called out "Second Sister-in-law" with a smile and said to her, "By the way, Second Sister-in-law, can I ask you how to keep your dowry? How is your dowry preserved? Should it be locked in a box and not moved until it is used, or should it be taken out from time to time to expose it to the light and inspected to prevent it from being bitten by insects or getting damp?"
"If you have any experience or good ideas, please teach me!"
Zhang's face changed slightly: "You——"
She doesn't have any dowry!
She had already used the few pieces of coarse cloth she had to make clothes! What else did she have?
Niu's face looked even uglier.
Since Zhang didn't have much dowry and Niu didn't have such an idea at that time, naturally she didn't argue.
So, now she wants to interfere with Yan's dowry, which doesn't make sense.
She knew how much the Yan family loved Yan Shi. At the beginning, her family had promised that they would love Yan Shi as much as they loved their own daughter, and only then did the Yan family finally agree to let Yan Shi marry into their family.
The Yan family is not easy to mess with.
This Yan doesn't look like a timid and weak person.
It would be terrible if the mother-in-law really checked Yan's dowry and something went wrong!
