Grandma Mo asked, puzzled, "What do you need the shop for?"
Mo Yunmei stood up excitedly, her voice becoming noticeably shrill, "As my dowry!"
Everyone else was speechless and didn't want to talk to her.
Mo Yunmei thought it was feasible. Having a shop as a dowry would be so impressive! That was her confidence!
Sister Qiuxia used to say that a woman's status in her husband's family depended entirely on how generous her dowry was, didn't she?
Then she used all the valuables in her house as her dowry, and her position in her husband's family would be secure!
Wow! Just thinking about it makes me so excited! Why is my heart beating so fast?
When Grandma Mo saw that this idiot was acting crazy again, she couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him. Did he think he could get whatever he wanted?
Before, I wanted a recipe; now I want a shop; what will I want in the future? A house!
Good heavens! Grandma Mo was right!
Mo Yunmei, in a moment of madness, kept pestering Old Lady Mo for answers, which finally made Old Lady Mo angry.
"You really think you're some rich young lady, demanding recipes and shops as your dowry? Bah! Go look at yourself in the river. All you do all day is think about nonsense! Put your feet down and walk properly. You're really getting carried away! Don't you know your family background?"
Mo Yunmei felt wronged. All she wanted was to have a stable position in her husband's family after marriage and not have to suffer from her mother-in-law's mistreatment. What was wrong with that?
Isn't the recipe theirs? Why can't we give it to her? It's not a big deal!
Mo Yunmei grew angrier the more she thought about it. "Am I not a member of the Mo family anymore? Why can't I have something? Why can't I have it as part of my dowry?"
Old Mo pulled his angry wife aside, and to prevent her from getting too upset, he gently patted her back to calm her down. "Why are you getting so angry? You're not even thinking straight. Aren't you just making yourself angry?"
Turning to Mo Yunmei, his tone turned much colder, saying, "Our Mo family treats everyone equally. Whatever dowry your sister received when she got married, we'll give you the same amount too. It's perfectly fair!"
Mo Yunmei objected, "How can that be! When my sister got married, her family didn't give her much dowry, and they didn't even have money to buy her clothes! How can I be like her! Now that the Mo family is rich, my dowry can't be based on the past; it has to be based on the current situation!"
Everyone else stared at Mo Yunmei as if they'd seen a ghost. When did the Mo family become rich?
After calming down, Old Madam Mo asked indifferently, "So how much money do you think the Mo family has now? How much dowry would be appropriate for you?"
Mo Yunmei thought that Old Madam Mo had relented, and her heart leaped with joy. She didn't even try to hide it on her face. "We've been doing business, so we must have made a lot of money. We should have at least two hundred taels. I don't need too much dowry. Just give me one hundred taels as a dowry, a prescription, a shop, a few sets of new clothes and shoes, and a few new quilts! As for the chickens, ducks, rabbits, geese, and the like, you can catch whatever you want. Oh, and I want those two piglets, so take them with you too! That's all for now, it's not a lot."
Grandma Mo nodded, "Yes! It's not much. You can add some more. It's too little; it doesn't look good!"
Mo Yunmei believed her and actually thought about it for a moment, "Then get me another set of cabinets, and a recliner. I think the recliner we bought before is pretty good. Buy me two new ones, not the old ones!"
The expressions on the faces of the others were truly indescribable.
Cherish life, stay away from idiots!
In no time, everyone had disappeared. Old Man Mo, supporting Old Woman Mo, also turned and left, wanting to avoid seeing them and getting annoyed.
After walking a distance, Grandma Mo kindly reminded her, "Hurry up and wash up and take a nap this afternoon. You can have anything in your dreams, whatever you want!"
Mo Yunmei was confused. Hadn't they agreed on something? Why were they suddenly telling her to take a nap?
She was completely baffled!
Did they agree or not?
She definitely knows that anything is possible in dreams, but nothing is left when you wake up! She doesn't want to dream at all!
Mo Yunmei couldn't quite grasp the meaning behind what the other person was saying.
She was still happily thinking about the future, about what kind of life she would lead.
Su Nanxi didn't want to pay attention to the idiot even more, because that would make her look even more foolish!
She pulled Mo Qinghe's hand and started scribbling again.
"Honey, do you want to teach my cousin Yuzhu how to sprout bean sprouts?"
Yes! Don't underestimate these bean sprouts; if you do them well, they can be quite profitable.
It's inexpensive, anyone with hands and feet can do it, isn't that great!
At Zhou Yuzhu's age, if her family is relatively poor, the men she can be matched with will definitely be from families with similar or even worse circumstances!
But if she has a skill of her own, that would be amazing, instantly elevating her potential partner to a higher level, and preventing her from being looked down upon or bullied in her husband's family.
Consider this a gift for her!
Mo Qinghe was a little jealous. "Wife, don't you think we're being too good to Cousin Yuzhu? Her mother probably wouldn't even consider her that much!"
Su Nanxi was very perceptive; she pulled his hand over and kissed it hard.
See, I love my husband the most! No one is more important than my husband!
Mo Qinghe felt comforted, and his smile was so gentle it seemed like a gentle breeze, and the sun and moon seemed to dim, filling his heart with sweetness.
“Honey, you find Cousin Yuzhu pleasing to the eye, which means she's to your liking. I don't mind if you treat her well, but I'm worried that if you start this trend, other cousins will come looking for you later.”
Uh! That's not wrong!
Seeing that there's profit to be made, who wouldn't want a piece of the pie!
If she's a good person and knows how to treat others, she doesn't mind helping if she can. But if you try to morally blackmail her, then I'm sorry, she doesn't understand anything about that!
Mo Qinghe smiled and pinched Su Nanxi's cheek. His wife was not someone to be trifled with; she was such a nice person!
Su Nanxi proudly raised his head, that's right, he doesn't even know who his wife is!
Mo Qinghe adored her like this; she was bright, lively, playful, and cute—truly beautiful to the core!
He placed her hand to his lips and kissed it gently. "My wife is so good!"
Some people, you know, they just appear the moment you mention them.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Wang brought Zhou Yuzhu to the Mo family again, and Qiu Huiling came along as well.
The Mo family had just delivered mung bean soup to the craftsmen, and they had some left over, so they gave it to these three men.
Mung bean sweet soup is refreshing and cooling, and it makes you feel comfortable and cool all over!
The three members of the Wang family drank one bowl and then asked for another.
Once they drank, some of the other members of the Mo family didn't get any more, because they hadn't prepared extra and didn't know these three would come.
However, the Mo family ate it often, so they didn't pay much attention to it. It didn't matter if they didn't eat it once, and they would just let it go if it was gone.
After finishing their meal, Zhou Yuzhu ran to find Su Nanxi, who was resting under a tree.
Mo Qinghe was inside the house when he saw his wife waving at him. He understood and turned his wheelchair to go outside.
Mo Qinghe arrived at the tree and looked around discreetly. He found that Wang Shi and Qiu Huiling were chatting with his mother in the main room, while only Zhou Yuzhu had come over by herself. He thought this was a good opportunity.
"Cousin, what did you say?"
