"Auntie, my parents' idea is to meet first and then talk about it."
I've already told Lin Bei before that the bride price is 50,000, and the house and car are the same as what we have in our area.
So what are your thoughts?
My mother said this was a test of their attitude, to prevent them from thinking that having a child meant they could disrespect her.
“Weiwei, let me tell you the truth. Your uncle and I share a tea plantation, and we have a son and a daughter. In my household, they are treated the same.”
Now we've used up most of our savings to buy a house, and we still have a mortgage to pay, a little over two thousand a month.
I have about thirty left in my hand.
The dowry we can offer is between 100,000 and 150,000 yuan, and the rest is for the three gold pieces, wedding photos, and the banquet, etc.
This is the money I know of, and it's also with your uncle.
I dare not say that I will treat you like my own daughter in the future, but I want to get along well with you and help you if I can. Don't worry, I have no intention of letting you support me in the future.
But there's one thing I hope you won't mind: I will definitely give my daughter a dowry, just like I would give her brother.
Let's clarify this first, okay?
Mo Yan felt that everyone should make things clear beforehand. In her eyes, sons and daughters were the same, and there was no such thing as a son taking care of his parents in old age.
Fang Wei frowned and didn't answer immediately. She didn't know, she hadn't experienced this before, but, "My mother also said that, like my brother, she would prepare a dowry for me, and I can understand that."
She also has an older brother, and her mother said that she would definitely not let her suffer in the future.
"Weiwei, thank you for your understanding. Your work is all in the city, and I have to be busy at home right now. But don't worry, I will come to take care of you when you are eight months pregnant. If you feel that I am not taking good care of you, please tell me. I will go to a postpartum care center to learn beforehand, or I will work hard and earn money to find a postpartum nanny to take care of you during your postpartum period."
Mo Yan wouldn't say she's definitely rich; that needs to be made clear first.
Fang Wei was stunned; she hadn't expected her aunt to have thought so far ahead.
"Oh, okay."
"Auntie, I understand your thoughts. I'll talk to my mom about it." Fang Wei also felt that it was better to say things in advance to avoid any sarcastic remarks later, which would be truly annoying.
Seeing that she wasn't angry, Mo Yan continued to speak.
"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you, Weiwei. Don't worry, although I don't have any money right now, I won't ask you for money when Lin Xi gets married."
"If the dowry I give to Lin Xi exceeds your allotted amount, I will make up the difference."
Fang Wei nodded, indicating that she understood.
Lin Bei, standing to the side, was a little reluctant. "What about the car? Mom, you can't just not buy us a car, can you?"
Mo Yan stopped and looked up at Lin Bei. "I just said that we only have so much money at home. Holding a banquet also costs money. Don't you know that?"
I don't have the ability to buy you this car, but you can try your best to buy it yourself.
You can also discuss it with your dad, but I can't be sure if it's possible.
You know your dad doesn't listen to me.
Lin Bei frowned even more, seemingly very unhappy and dissatisfied with the answer. "Mom, you're husband and wife, why don't you just make him agree? Besides, I'm your son!"
My sister's salary over the years..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that Mo Yan's face had turned as black as it could possibly be.
"Do you want Weiwei to see how shameless you are? Taking your sister's salary, do you even have the nerve?"
"What about your salary? Why didn't you contribute to your wedding?"
This son is really ridiculous. It's normal for him to ask his parents for some help with his wedding, but it's shameless of him to not contribute a single penny and still expect to get his sister's salary.
"But……"
Lin Bei was about to say something when Mo Yan interrupted him, "Your words just now sounded like Weiwei's brother hoping that Weiwei would give him all her wages from all these years."
“That won’t do!” Lin Bei blurted out.
Mo Yan's lips twitched...
You know it won't work.
Lin Bei regretted saying those words as soon as he spoke and quickly looked at Fang Wei.
Fang Wei was also a little helpless; she was speechless after hearing what she had just heard. "Lin Bei, I also think what you said just now was very excessive. What does our marriage have to do with your sister?"
Auntie, don't worry. We'll discuss it together, and then I'll talk to my mom about it properly.
"Is it alright for our two families' parents to meet tomorrow?"
Fang Wei genuinely wanted to be with Lin Bei, feeling that he treated her well and was very obedient.
But she didn't expect Lin Bei's family to be in this situation, so she had to go back and discuss it with her mother.
"Okay, no problem. Here, this is a red envelope from your aunt."
Mo Yan took out a red envelope and placed it in Fang Wei's hand. "Auntie really likes you and hopes to become family with you."
"Yes, thank you, Auntie."
Fang Wei accepted the red envelope. Lin Guo also returned, accompanied by his niece Lin Fang and his sister Lin Cao.
Mo Yan saw them and asked them to sit down, then poured them tea.
Lin Cao smiled as soon as she saw the room and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to tidy up the house today, since you don't usually do."
"What did you have for lunch today? You didn't skimp on Weiwei, did you? We're all a little worried about your cooking, so we asked you to bring them over to your sister-in-law's for lunch, but you refused."
Upon hearing this, Fang Wei knew that her aunt was being rather rude. She was implying that Lin Bei's mother was incompetent at housework.
