The villagers were busy harvesting, and within two days, all the wheat was piled up in the threshing ground for threshing. The Ji and Xia families finally sat down at the same table. "Grandma Xia, how much dowry are you going to give us, Xia Luo?"
Ji's mother stepped hard on her youngest son's feet under the table, but Ji Changye did not give up and looked at Old Lady Xia with a smile.
"You said in front of the whole village that day that you would give Xia Luo a generous dowry so that she could marry in style.
You should still remember it, right?"
Li Lianhua's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but look at her mother-in-law expectantly.
She didn't ask her mother-in-law to treat her two granddaughters fairly, as long as she didn't let Luoer be too embarrassed in front of her in-laws.
At this time, more than a dozen people from the two families filled the living room. On one side of Xihe was Old Lady Xia and on the other side were the original owner's parents, that is, Old Lady Xia's eldest son and daughter-in-law. Further down were Xia Luo and her parents, and opposite were the Ji family's parents and the three brothers of the Ji family.
Ji Changqing and Ji Changye both joined the military camp, while Ji Changyun, who was honest and simple, stayed at home to take care of his parents.
As soon as Ji Changye finished speaking,
Everyone in the room looked at Old Lady Xia.
They all knew that Old Lady Xia held Xia He in the palm of her hand, and her dowry would definitely not be small, but the same could not be said for Xia Luo.
Old Mrs. Xia looked unhappy. What happened? Was she still thinking about his or her money?
Ji Changye looked surprised: "Grandma Xia, you are not going to give it to me, are you? You are the elder, you can't talk..."
Mother Ji pinched the soft flesh on her son's waist fiercely and said to Old Lady Xia with a smile: "Aunt, we like both children. Whether the dowry is there or not is just an intention. We don't care about it."
You little bastard, you're already protecting her before we even get married!
"no!"
Ji Changye endured the pain and said firmly: "If you want to give, give it to everyone. If you don't want to give, give it to no one! Xia He is your granddaughter, and so is our Xia Luo! You can't be partial!"
He just couldn't stand Old Lady Xia's biasedness and had to teach her a lesson.
Ji's mother: ...
She glared at her son.
The eyes are scary.
Ji Changye finally shut up.
Mother Ji took a deep breath and said to Old Lady Xia with a smile, "Auntie, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. Just take care of what's going on. By the way, the market will be in a few days, so let them take the two girls to buy some clothes."
She quickly patted her eldest son and asked him to come out and ease the atmosphere. Old Mrs. Xia liked Changqing the most.
Ji Changqing looked at Xihe: "I came to pick you up that morning."
Xihe nodded: "Okay."
After that, the two families chatted for a few more sentences, and then Ji's mother quickly left with her family. If they continued to make trouble, it would not be a marriage but an enmity.
As soon as the man left, the room fell into silence. No one expected Ji Changye to be so stubborn.
Old Mrs. Xia stared at Xia Luo with a forced smile: "You are really capable." The man had already protected her before they even got married.
Li Lianhua was extremely panicked and quickly stood up: "Mom, Xiaohe is not..."
"So grandma doesn't plan to give me a dowry?"
Xia Luo spoke directly.
At this point, she would not back down: "I am also a daughter-in-law of the Ji family. My aunt treats Ji Changye very well. Are you sure you want to offend them? Let them think that you look down on Ji Changye?"
They are all marrying off their daughters, or they are a family,
Wouldn’t Ji’s mother be worried that the dowry she gave was too little?
Xia Luo showed her fangs for the first time.
Staring at Old Lady Xia: "Grandma,
I’m thinking about you.”
At this moment, Old Lady Xia had an extremely terrifying expression on her face, and she gritted her teeth: "It seems that I have raised a Zhongshan wolf." It even dared to bark at her.
Xia Luo's expression was equally cold: "I want fifty, not a cent less!"
Bang! Old Lady Xia exploded, slamming the cup down on the table. "Fifty? Why don't you just go and grab it!" She looked at her with a murderous look, "You little bitch, forget it!"
Xia Luo's face instantly darkened.
She remembered that in her previous life, Old Lady Xia gave Xia He eighty! What's wrong with her asking for fifty?
This damn old woman!
She stared at Old Lady Xia angrily, her eyes full of rage: "My parents worked for you for so many years, and I started working when I was four years old. I've never bought a nice piece of clothing, never had a bite of delicious food, and all the money is in your hands!"
"What's wrong with fifty? I deserve a hundred!"
She recalled that in her previous life, Xia He had a grand wedding, but she didn't even have a wedding banquet.
"Grandma, you have to give it to me today, whether you want or not! Otherwise, I'll let everyone know how you treat our whole family like slaves without giving us any benefits!"
"Xia Luo, shut up!"
Xihe couldn't help it: "Just talk, why are you yelling? Grandma has never touched your things!"
He even threatened people. Did he treat her as if she didn't exist?
Third Uncle Xia also said, "Xia Luo, that's not what you said."
The others' expressions changed. Xia Luo watched silently, but who knew he would ask for such a huge amount of money, fifty? He was treating them as if they didn't exist, right?
Xia Luo costs fifty, and Xia He costs another fifty. No matter how much money my mother has, she can’t stand this!
Uncle Xia said directly, "Your father worked, but the eldest brother and I didn't? You started earning work points at the age of four. Which child in our family didn't? You mean Xiao Hemiao, right? But she only spent her mother's share and didn't touch anyone else's."
"Mom is happy to give it to her. That's Mom's freedom. None of us can criticize her, and you have no right to do so."
Xia He can enjoy all this because Old Lady Xia is willing to do so.
They are not fools. If their share was touched, they would have exploded long ago. Why would Xia Luo have the chance to say anything here?
