Lin Weiguo didn't think much about it and directly stated his plan.
"I'll just give Jinfeng a red envelope, and then she can buy whatever she likes."
Lin Weihong was waiting for this and immediately responded:
"Hey, big brother, why bother with so much trouble? You already have a sewing machine. Jinfeng likes that one. You can just give it to Jinfeng as a dowry. That way, Jinfeng will be proud to marry into the Huang family."
"What?"
Lin Weiguo scratched his ears, thinking he had misheard.
Although he had always known that his sister liked to steal things from her parents' home to bring to her in-laws' home, he didn't expect that she would ask for so much this time, even a sewing machine.
The red envelope he mentioned would only contain a few dollars at most.
Even so, it is considered high in the surrounding area.
Who would have thought that his sister would ask for a sewing machine, which costs more than a hundred dollars!
I have to put another sewing ticket on it.
How could she have the nerve to speak up?
Lin Ran, who had been listening nonchalantly, now looked gloomy when he heard this.
This sewing machine she had just spent so much time and effort to buy was already coveted by someone before she even had a chance to use it?
But Lin Weihong is Lin Weiguo's biological sister after all, so Lin Ran just pinched the handkerchief and didn't say anything for the time being, wanting to see what Lin Weiguo would say first.
Lin Weihong on the other side had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. She thought that this time was just like usual. As long as she pestered Lin Weiguo and made a fuss, maybe she could get the sewing machine back as before.
But she didn't think about it. What she had been arguing about before were just food and clothes. How could it be compared with a sewing machine?
So this time Lin Weiguo's face turned cold.
"Nonsense! Do you want me to move my entire house to you?"
It was rare to see Lin Weiguo get angry, and Lin Weihong was really scared.
But after she came to her senses, she was even angrier than Lin Weiguo.
"What's wrong? Dad is gone, and as the eldest, you are naturally the head of my mother's family.
An elder brother is like a father! What's wrong with giving him a sewing machine?
You are so stingy, yet you still have the nerve to be mean to me!
And I'm not asking for anything unreasonable. If your family can't afford it, I definitely wouldn't ask.
But you obviously have it ready at home, so why can't you give it to my daughter Jinfeng as a dowry? Wouldn't that save you the trouble of paying for it? "
Lin Weiguo was so angry that he almost laughed.
Is this how the saying "eldest brother is like a father" is used?
But he certainly couldn't argue like Lin Weihong until his face turned red, mainly because he couldn't afford to lose face.
There was no more nonsense at that moment.
"Anyway, I don't have a sewing machine, I just have a red envelope. If you don't like it, then you can help me save money."
Lin Weihong didn't expect that even after she said so much, Lin Weiguo still refused to give in.
This was a trick that had always worked for her since she was a child, but it didn't work this time. How could she accept this?
So Lin Weihong got hot-headed and immediately sat down on the ground, slapping her thigh and starting to cry.
"Dad, I miss you. If you were still here, my brothers wouldn't dare to ignore me, their younger sister.
My life is so miserable!
My family is poor and there is no other way. Now that my only daughter is getting married, I hope that her brothers from her natal family can help me gain face, but they are unwilling to do so.
What am I still alive for!
My parents don’t care about me anymore, so I might as well just hang myself and go find you!
..."
With such a loud noise outside, how could Shen Wenfang, her mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law in the kitchen not hear it?
Originally, Shen Wenfang was counting on Lin Weiguo to handle it, so she didn't come out.
But now that things have gotten this far, it would be inappropriate for her not to come over.
Moreover, she couldn't stand it anymore. Lin Weihong actually dared to covet her family's Ranran's dowry. She was just too lazy to argue with her before, but she didn't expect that she really thought she was a clay man.
"Big sister, to be honest, this sewing machine was the dowry we prepared for Ranran, and we even borrowed the plane ticket from someone else.
We can understand that you love your daughter, but Ranran is the only daughter of your eldest brother and me, and we love her too. We also want to earn some face for her when she gets married.
So I'm sorry, everyone loves their own child.
Even if we love our children, we should do what we can and prepare as much as we can.
We can’t go to your house or my second brother’s house and make trouble and steal things that we don’t have.”
Lin Weihong didn't think it was a big deal before because she was used to making trouble in front of Lin Weiguo since she was a child.
But now that Shen Wenfang was pointing at his nose, he couldn't hold back his face. He immediately stood up and cursed at Shen Wenfang in frustration.
"Okay, Shen Wenfang, you finally revealed your true colors. I knew you couldn't stand me.
I just come back occasionally to get some things!
It is only natural for me to take things from my mother's house and ask my eldest brother for them. Why do you say that I am stealing and making a fuss?
And what right do you have to say that? I'm my eldest brother's biological sister! I'm a member of the Lin family!
How dare you, a stranger, point fingers at me? "
These words completely angered Lin Ran. How could she tolerate someone yelling at Shen Wenfang like that, especially in front of her?
Lin Ran immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Shen Wenfang, her voice loud and clear.
“Because my mother is the current mistress of the Lin family, and you are just a relative.
Even your parents are not obligated to buy you a sewing machine, let alone your brothers and sisters-in-law.
And didn't Auntie hear that just now? I bought this sewing machine and borrowed the plane ticket, so even if my parents agreed to give it to you, it wouldn't be of any use.
