...
Next came the intricate gold and silver jewelry.
Jiang Liu's eyes went numb from watching.
"Why are there so many?"
"This is nothing, there's more to come." Mother Jiang pointed to the dowry list, gesturing for Jiang Liu to continue checking.
"Anything else?" Jiang Liu noticed that her dowry for her second marriage was several times higher than her first.
A pair of bright red embroidered shoes were placed inside the copper basin.
Mouthwash bowl, rouge box,
Satin bed curtains, canopies, colorful tassels,
Turning the page again, she became somewhat excited.
Unable to contain her joy, Jiang Liu stood up abruptly from her chair.
Land title?
"Shops, twelve units? Real estate...this..."
"This, was it prepared by your father a long time ago?" Mother Jiang asked with a smile.
Her muddle-headed husband did something that really pleased her this time.
The dowry is her daughter's public image.
"You know your father loves you the most, and he knows that you've recently become obsessed with doing business."
Jiang Liu was somewhat touched, but, "This must cost a lot of money."
Although her family was an official family, her father's salary was still limited.
“Your father is afraid that the Qiu family will look down on you.”
Jiang Liu felt a sweet warmth in her heart when she thought of Qiu Dafu.
She shook her head firmly, "No."
Qiu Dafu is not that kind of person.
This time, she was convinced that she hadn't misjudged him.
She had some doubts.
"Mom, where did we get so much money?"
Her parents probably moved their entire household to her.
"You, just relax and wait to get married."
While not wanting his daughter to be looked down upon by the Qiu family, Jiang's father also wanted to show off.
He almost emptied his savings to prepare for this show.
She also asked her three sons for a lot of money, just so that her daughter could live a decent life in her husband's family.
His actions made Jiang Liu's three older brothers somewhat jealous.
However, my sister's happiness is more important than money.
"Mother, you and Father have thought of everything so thoroughly. You've taken care of my dowry from beginning to end. The only thing missing is my funeral arrangements," Jiang Liu joked.
Unexpectedly, no sooner had he finished speaking than Jiang's father burst into laughter from outside.
"Hahaha, who said there wasn't?" Father Jiang appeared outside Jiang Liu's door.
"Liu'er, you haven't finished reading yet, there's one last page."
Jiang Liu stared in astonishment as she looked at it.
"Father, Mother, this...this..."
Jiang's mother pulled her daughter out of the room, looked at Jiang's father, and rubbed her moist eyes.
"Liu'er, this dowry can bring good fortune and wealth to your husband's family."
As for your career prospects... we can only hope for your children. As for your finances, I believe your business will definitely flourish.
Most importantly, these dowries will ensure you a worry-free life.
Half a month later, your father will be transferred to Shangjin as an official.
Before he left, your absence was his biggest worry.
After hearing this, Jiang's father nodded silently.
Even now, he still feels that Qiu Dafu's identity as a craftsman won't earn him much money.
Although he initially looked down on Qiu Dafu's peasant background, he couldn't stop his daughter from liking him, so he had to go along with her wishes.
Over the past few days, he has seen Qiu Dafu's character firsthand and has gradually become less prejudiced against him.
However, he still didn't think Qiu Dafu could achieve great things.
In his view, a farmer's son who has never been to school will never amount to anything.
Therefore, he gave half of his family home to his daughter, hoping that she would have no worries about food and clothing, and that Qiu Dafu would never change his heart with the help of his family.
Men are incredibly fickle, easily bored with the old and seeking the new.
After hearing this, Jiang Liu fell silent.
"Leaving? Why so suddenly?"
