"So what? Over the years, what has Jiang Lan, as our younger sister and aunt, done for us?"
Did she care about whether her brother was having a hard time studying, or did she sew a piece of clothing for Shao Ming and the others?
No, absolutely nothing. My three children have never worn a single piece of clothing from their aunt, nor have they ever eaten a single piece of candy from her. In fact, Jiang Lan, you've never even helped me look after my children once.
Mu Yi sat calmly in the chair, speaking in a flat tone.
"Jiang Lan, let me ask you this: without any effort on your part, just because you're my husband's sister, do you really think I'd generously give you several hundred taels of silver as a dowry?"
"Second sister-in-law, you... if you don't want to give it to me, then don't! Why are you insulting me like this? Waaah..."
“I’m just telling you the truth, and you can’t stand it? Then why did you cause all this trouble today? Do your parents owe you something? Do your brothers and sisters-in-law owe you something? Does your sister owe you something? On her happy days, you were crying and wailing?”
Jiang Lan couldn't answer Mu Yi'an's questions.
"Aunt, do you think I should pay this amount?"
Mu Yi'an pointed the arrow at Aunt Jiang, really thinking he was something special.
"You, a junior, how dare you speak to your elders like that? You have no manners."
"Aunt, be careful what you say!"
Jiang Shuyun spoke sternly, looking at her aunt with a serious expression.
"You, you're like that too."
Aunt Jiang pointed at Jiang Shuyun, trembling with anger.
"Have you finished speaking?"
Jiang's father looked around, his gaze lingering on each person's face.
"Jiang Lan, as the youngest child in the family, you are spoiled. You only know how to accept benefits but don't want to give back, which is wrong."
No one, except your parents, has a responsibility to take care of you all the time, not even your older siblings.
In human relationships, there must be give and take.
Today, before you get married, I want to tell you that it won't work if you only want benefits without giving anything in return.
As for your dowry, it's a favor if your brother and sister-in-law add to it; anything more is beyond your reach.
Jiang's father has said everything he needed to say; how much Jiang Lan can understand is up to her.
Parents can't be with you forever, and if you don't maintain good relationships with your siblings, you'll suffer later.
"Have a meal!"
Jiang's father did not criticize Shuyun and her husband; his own sister should also learn about "social etiquette."
Some people act like a grandson in front of strangers, but are used to acting like a lord in front of their family.
