The topic has strayed from the main point. Lying on his new bed in his new home, Qi Mingyu couldn't help but sigh whenever he thought about going to collect his dowry tomorrow.
He went to pick up the Xue family when they moved in.
Naturally, they also knew how much Xue Mengyu's dowry was.
His family's current wealth consists of only a few acres of barren land, the newly built house, and a few dozen taels of silver left on him.
As for the benefits he and Zhong Wenming had obtained from the Xue family, they had given them all to the other party.
In other words, he didn't accept a single penny of the money the Xue family had spent to settle here.
But it doesn't matter, the dowry will be moved tomorrow, and the wedding will be the day after tomorrow.
Once Xue Mengyu enters the family, their lives will definitely improve.
Now he can't stand or sit for long periods of time, and he can't even hold a pen properly.
No one knew about this except his parents.
He let Xue Mengyu in first. Once they consummated their marriage, even if Xue's family found out about his situation, he wouldn't have to worry about them bringing up old grievances.
The money given to him by both sides has been spent, and his wife has already entered the family. The Xue family is just a merchant family. Even if they want to back out, what can they do to him?
At worst, we can just let Xue Mengyu leave.
As long as he isn't asked to return the silver, everything is fine.
By then, he would only have lost a wife; his house and land would still be there, and he would have no outstanding debts.
It's safe to say that it's incredibly profitable!
While Qi Mingyu was happily thinking about these things, the atmosphere in the old clan chief's house, which had finally been built, was unusually oppressive.
Looking at his grandfather, who was on his last breath and couldn't even open his eyes, Qi Maosheng felt a deep hatred for Qi Mingyu.
My grandfather traveled to Anning County because of his pleas, and ended up contracting the plague.
Even though the plague was eventually cured, Grandpa's age meant his health didn't improve.
The reason they've been able to hold out until now is because they've almost exhausted their savings to buy ginseng slices.
Qi Mingyu, he will definitely make him pay the price.
If he wants to marry a girl from a wealthy family, he has to see if his cousin, who is also the next clan chief, is willing!
His grandfather has been sick ever since, and that bastard has never come to visit him even once.
If Grandpa doesn't live past these next two days, then he'll drag his coffin over there and demand an explanation.
With this idea in mind, Qi Maosheng didn't care whether his grandfather's age was considered a happy death.
They don't care what the consequences of doing so would be.
At that moment, all he could think about was how to get revenge on the other party.
It was at this moment that he suddenly heard his parents crying.
When he came to his senses, he saw rows of people kneeling on the ground, weeping bitterly.
Seeing this, he stepped forward with a stern face.
Grandpa had previously said that he would help put on the funeral clothes.
Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still very upset when he saw that his grandfather had stopped breathing.
Over the years, Elder Qi has essentially been the spiritual leader of Qijia Village.
His death was a major event in Qijia Village.
Even though it was very late, the people of Qijia Village, upon learning of the situation, still spontaneously and voluntarily brought incense, candles, and paper money to visit and offer their prayers.
Those families with whom they had a closer relationship would even prepare to keep watch there all night.
After changing his grandfather's burial clothes and putting him into the coffin, Qi Maosheng didn't rush to take the coffin to Qi Mingyu's house.
He planned to wait until Qi Mingyu hired people to carry the dowry over the next day before moving it over.
If Qi Mingyu doesn't give an explanation, then he can't blame Qi Mingyu for getting into trouble!
Qi Mingyu, who was having a good night's sleep, had no idea about this.
He stretched when he woke up in the morning, and then got out of bed happily.
Today they're carrying the dowry, tomorrow they're getting married.
