And the Huang family, even if they were to buy a maid, they wouldn't have to pay eighty taels, right? Don't you think these two families gave too much?"
The old lady thought about it.
"Well, it is said that the old family took the initiative to ask for your sister Xiu Li's hand in marriage, and the man took a fancy to Sister Li.
The old man was asking for a high price and was straightforward. He directly asked for a betrothal gift of 100 taels and said that Li Jie'er was a priceless treasure.
Throwing money at her is hurting her.”
"Wow!"
Xiushui exclaimed.
"If we put aside the rumors that he's unlucky with his wife and children, this guy's view of Sister Li is truly... I admire him anyway."
"Right, although I disliked this body at the time, I fell silent after hearing these words.
Acquiesced to Xu Qingshan's behavior.
As for the Huang family?"
"I don't remember the details, but it seems the old man once asked Qing to go out for a while. When he came back, he said he had agreed on eighty taels.
Well, if my guess is correct, that girl might have some connection with the lecherous young man from the Huang family.
Otherwise, how could the Huang family come up with eighty taels of silver! Your sister Qing is a person with big ideas. "
"That old man is really good at hiding money! He just kept all the money from selling his granddaughter and didn't give it out?
You, the original owner...are so naive as to believe him?"
The old lady couldn't accept this. The original owner still had feelings for Xu Qingshan. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had so many children with him.
I can only say that I trusted the wrong person.
After finding out what happened to her two sisters, Xiushui hurried towards the Wen family who were waiting anxiously.
Changxuan and the other boys were already waiting impatiently.
"Sister, you're finally here. We thought you were just talking about giving out money. Hey, hurry up, let's feel like rich people today."
Chang Kang smiled and gave one to his naughty cousin. "You call yourself a rich man for just a hundred coins. What did I say for one ounce of silver?"
After educating his younger brother, he rubbed his hands and smiled at his cousin.
"Shui, hurry up, I also want to feel the taste of holding a handful of silver. You don't know, I have always wanted to be rich, and my ultimate goal is to sleep on money one day."
Xiumei couldn't bear to hear her stupid brother act so stupidly, and said disdainfully: "Brother, it will hurt if you sleep on the silver. Also, your future sister-in-law will dislike you if you talk like this."
"You're rich, but you're still afraid of women looking down on you. You don't understand, sister. If I really had enough money to sleep on, your sister-in-law would just smile at me like a flower. Who would look down on money? Only a half-grown girl like you is so ignorant."
Being despised by her stupid brother again, Xiumei was so angry that she wanted to tickle him. Unfortunately, the stupid brother was not really stupid. When he saw her trying to tickle him, he smiled and walked around in circles.
"You can't scratch it, you short-legged, stupid girl, just stare at me, hahahaha..."
Xiumei was so angry that she was about to cry. She stomped her feet and yelled at Li, who was still sad, and Uncle Wen.
"Dad, Mom, look at my brother. He's bullying your poor daughter again."
The couple, who were originally angry and sad, saw their eldest son and youngest daughter making a fuss again, and all their sadness and anger disappeared.
Uncle Wen roared. "Kang Ge'er, stop it! If you dare to bully your sister again, I'll beat you!"
Mrs. Li waved hurriedly to her little daughter.
"Meimei, come to your mother. Your brother is a little silly, so let's ignore him."
The brother and sister who were still fighting looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. This parents always blamed themselves and felt guilty about the eldest sister's affairs. How easy is it for them to be children!
Xiushui waited with a smile until they finished making a fuss, then poured the changed money onto the table.
Actually, this money can be exchanged in the space system, but she said yesterday that it had to be exchanged outside.
If for no other reason than to go out for a stroll in broad daylight.
The sound of silvery and crisp money colliding with each other, and the dazzling colors of a pile of money that blinds the eyes.
In an instant, not only the children fell silent, but the adults also held their breath and stared at the pile of money, and slowly, their breathing became heavy.
It was Uncle Wen who laughed out loud.
"My dream before was to count money until my hands cramped, but today I never thought I would actually see a pile of money in front of me.
Hehe, it's really pretty, and the sound is pretty nice too. Xiushui girl, hurry up and make some more noise for Uncle Er to hear."
Li felt embarrassed and tugged at his clothes. How could you, a bastard, say such things? People will laugh at you!
However, after taking a quick glance at the crowd, he found that everyone was in a good mood and did not seem to look down on the boss's words.
On the contrary, everyone nodded in agreement. Well, it seems everyone is the same, all money-loving people.
It seems the head of the family is straightforward. He wasn't invited by the old man before, so he always acted a bit recklessly when he was out there.
Only she, the one who sleeps beside him, knows how rough a man looks but how delicate he is inside, and how much he longs for family affection...
Looking at this pile of money, Li became more hopeful about his future life.
"I'll buy some things for the children later, even for the eldest girl. Not a single one of our children should be left out."
The old lady nodded.
"That's right, don't always say that a daughter who's married off is like spilled water; that's not true.
Even if you marry your own children, they are no longer your own, but are really thrown away? Isn't this bullshit?
But you two shouldn't always blame yourselves. I think our eldest daughter's marriage may have had its origins."
