"How dare you say I'm being unreasonable!" Shen Hongyan said sharply, "I have too much money and I'm giving it to outsiders? I want bicycles and sewing machines, and I want meat? Listen, are these people asking for things? Are they being unreasonable, or am I being unreasonable?"
"...Giving a betrothal gift is normal for marriages, right? After all, they've raised their daughter for so many years. Why should you expect them to marry you off without spending a penny? And then you'll have to give birth to children and take care of the whole family, including her parents, children, and husband?"
I have raised and spoiled her daughter for so many years. How is it possible to marry her without spending any money?
Hearing this, Shen Hongyan was unhappy and glared, "Why not? Didn't our family spend any money when you married Niu Aihua? We didn't give any betrothal gifts, but Niu Aihua even gave us a dowry. Even the house was given to us by the Niu family!"
"..." These words left Lin Dong speechless.
To be more precise, speechless.
If the Niu family had not built this house and had not provided any dowry, how could Shen Hongyan allow Niu Aihua to enter the house?
Shen Hongyan didn't feel that she had done anything wrong. Instead, she felt that her values were very positive and she held her chin high with pride.
"Lin Tong, listen to me. This kind of woman is obviously spoiled and pretentious! How can she still ask for a betrothal gift when she's already pregnant? I guess it was her parents who instigated this. It's okay. I have experience. Let's just give it a try! Wait three to five months, and when she gets pregnant, they'll know how embarrassed they are. Then they'll be begging us to marry them!"
Shen Hongyan was very happy: "Don't agree too quickly when the time comes. We have to take advantage of this opportunity to help him! She must give us three turns and one ring as a dowry before we can marry her. Otherwise, you are not allowed to agree!"
Lin Tong didn't say anything.
Lin Dong couldn't bear to listen to these words. Is this his biological mother? How could she come up with such a bad idea?
But the eldest wife and her husband felt that what they did was right. They were so happy to think that they would soon have a third-turn and a treasure.
Ha! So what if the second and third wives are doing well now? They still haven't bought a watch yet? The first wife will definitely get together this time and give the second and third wives a good slap in the face!
Lin Dong didn't want to communicate with the couple at all. Their values were very distorted and he wouldn't listen to anything they said.
After going out, Lin Dong was afraid that his brother had really listened to Shen Hongyan's words, so he quickly spoke.
"You must not believe what your parents say. Now that you're pregnant, we have to be responsible for her. We still have to give the betrothal gift!"
Lin Tong nodded, "But my parents don't agree to give me money..."
The economic power was in the hands of Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan. All the money the two brothers earned every month was taken away, and they didn't even have ten dollars left.
Lin Dong looked at him and asked, "Don't you have any hidden money?"
Lin Tong shook his head.
He is an honest man and not good at playing tricks.
This is going to be difficult.
The money is in the hands of Shen Hongyan and Lin Yubao. The couple will definitely not give a dime, and they don't have any money...
"No, let's borrow from Second and Third Aunts." Lin Dong suggested: "Didn't Second and Third Aunts make a lot of money from their stalls recently? They can borrow a few hundred yuan to buy a sewing machine, a bicycle, and some fish and meat. It should be no problem."
Although Lin Tong doesn't like to talk much, his values are still relatively positive.
