Just because Xie Gui’s explanation doesn’t make sense doesn’t mean Xie Yu’s explanation doesn’t make sense.
If he himself didn't want so much dowry, Xie Gui wouldn't be able to give it even if he wanted to.
Zhao Xiulan thought about it and said directly, "Jianguo, go talk to your uncle about this later. He loved you guys very much. You said you were going to get married, so it's impossible for him to take so much money."
Besides, Xie Jianguo and his friends are younger than them, so it would be more appropriate for them to talk to Xie Yu about this matter than for her, the eldest sister-in-law.
Xie Jianguo frowned, obviously not wanting to take the lead.
He hesitated for a moment, "Mom, it's not a good idea for me to go look for my uncle..."
He looked tentatively in the direction of Xie Xiaohua, hoping that Zhao Xiulan could understand what he meant.
Before Zhao Xiulan even opened her mouth, Xie Xiaohua rejected her directly, "Brother, I'm already married, and I can't get involved in our family affairs..."
After all, she wouldn't get any benefit from this matter, so there was no need for her to get involved.
Xie Jianguo: “…”
Seeing this, Xie Liye wanted to sneak away to inform Xie Yu, but as soon as he turned around, someone grabbed his neck.
Zhao Xiulan looked at him coldly, "What are you going to do?"
Xie Liye shrank his neck and said, "I, I'm going out for a walk."
As he said this, he glanced at his feet guiltily.
Zhao Xiulan still doesn’t know what Xie Liye is thinking?
She dragged Xie Liye directly to the woodshed and locked him in.
Xie Jianguo looked at the locked woodshed and frowned instantly, "Mom..."
"Don't beg for mercy for him. Among the three of you, only the third one is brainless and can't tell good from bad." Zhao Xiulan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Wait until you go to your uncle's place, then let him out."
She knew that Xie Liye had been determined to join the army since he was a child, and that this was closely related to Xie Yu.
Xie Yu used to be in the army, with healthy hands and feet, so she could count on him to help Xie Jianguo and Xie Liye in the army.
But now that Xie Yu is paralyzed, there is no need for Xie Yu to run to him all day long.
Xie Yu is a cunning person, and who knows what kind of person he will become of Xie Liye by then.
She had to be on guard.
Xie Jianguo glanced at Zhao Xiulan, then at Xie Liye, but in the end he said nothing.
He had no intention of pleading for a fool.
In his eyes, his third brother was no different from a fool.
He just didn't want to lose face and talk to Xie Yu about the bride price.
Xie Jianguo felt that since the money was confiscated, it was his family's money.
He felt that there was no need for his family to ask Xie Yu for permission after using the money, but his father was too stubborn.
If this matter is not handled through Xie Yu, it will probably be difficult to do.
Zhao Xiulan could see the hesitation in his eyes, so she raised her hand, patted his shoulder and said, "Jianguo, this concerns your beautiful future, you have to think it through."
Xie Jianguo: “…”
Xie Xiaohua saw through Xie Jianguo's thoughts at a glance.
She has always known that her elder brother is a thoughtful person and is very concerned about his reputation.
It's probably too embarrassing to save face now. Her eyes rolled and she said immediately, "Brother, if you go alone as a man, your uncle may not give you face. If you bring your fiancée, maybe this will work..."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jianguo's eyes suddenly widened.
Yeah, why didn't he think of it?
Isn't it okay for him to let the woman say what he can't say?
"That makes sense. I'll go find Meili now." He said, and left the yard without looking back.
At the same time, Xie Yu's family.
Chang Suisui came directly to Xie Yu's door with a book in her arms.
To her surprise, Xie Yu was sitting in the yard washing clothes.
Because of his difficulty walking, he built a stone platform next to the water tank.
Even if he is sitting, it does not affect the work in his hands.
The temperature was still very high during the day, and Xie Yu was even only wearing a black tank top.
I don’t know if this dress is a bit old, but there is an obvious hole on it, right at the waist.
Chang Suisui's gaze couldn't help but fall on that place. Even through the hole, he could see his honey-colored mermaid line.
She couldn't help swallowing.
“Gudong——”
The sound is a bit loud.
Even Chang Suisui himself felt a little embarrassed.
Xie Yu, who was washing clothes, seemed to have noticed it and immediately turned around to look over.
When his sharp eyes fell on Chang Suisui, his pupils trembled noticeably, and then he was about to hide the clothes that were still being washed behind him.
But his clothes were wet because they had just been splashed with water, and it also got his vest wet.
Now the clothes fit better...
Chang Suisui pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly, "Don't be in a hurry, wash slowly."
She was just focused on looking at Xie Yu's abdominal muscles and mermaid line, so how could she see what he was washing?
But seeing how nervous he is now, he must be washing his underwear, right?
Chang Suisui didn't know what kind of underwear a man could wear that would make him so embarrassed.
But thinking about Xie Yu's innocent spirit, it seems understandable.
Xie Yu originally felt that his actions just now were a bit... trying to cover up one's own fault, and now that Chang Suisui had pointed it out, the tips of his ears turned red as if they were about to bleed.
He coughed lightly and said calmly, "Chang Zhiqing, you, you wait in the room for a while, I'll be there soon."
Chang Suisui nodded slightly, then turned and entered Xie Yu's room.
The room seemed much brighter than it had been the night before.
The interior is clean and tidy. Even though it is a bit simple, you can tell that the owner who lives here has cleaned it up carefully.
She glanced around the room and was about to find a stool to sit down when Xie Yu came in pushing a wheelchair.
"Chang Zhiqing, have some water." He put down the enamel pot in his hand, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
"There's sugar in it."
Chang Suisui's lips curled up slightly, and he took a sip of the sugar water on the table. His beautiful eyes curved and said, "Mm, very sweet."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yu couldn't help but look up at her, and then saw Chang Suisui drinking the sugar water in small sips.
She has pretty eyes and eyebrows to begin with, and when she holds the sugar water like this and drinks it, she looks like a pretty and delicate kitten, which is very endearing to look at.
Xie Yu was distracted for a moment, and his mind twitched, and he blurted out, "Chang Zhiqing, it's not dark yet, isn't it too early for you to come here?"
As soon as he said this, Xie Yu regretted it.
His question just now seemed to be saying that Chang Suisui could only see him at night.
Xie Yu hurriedly tried to make amends, "I, I don't mind you coming early, I mean... I..."
Chang Suisui saw that he was anxious and wanted to tease him with bad intentions.
She blinked in surprise. "I didn't expect that Comrade Xie only wanted to see me at night. Why? Don't I look good during the day?"
"You look good! You look good during the day and at night!" Xie Yu said without thinking.
When he realized what he had said, "boom", his whole body turned red...
