Chapter 31: Dowry

CHAPTER XXXI

Lin Yong stood in place with an almost stubborn and stubborn attitude, refusing to come in or walk away, silent not at all like a nine-year-old child.

Lin Biluo didn't understand what the kid wanted to express with silence, so he walked over and pulled him in, he didn't refuse, he was pulled by Lin Biluo, and obediently came in.

This child used to have endless energy, and he always felt that everything he wanted when he met it, but this time he was unexpectedly cramped, standing in the shop, and it seemed that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

In addition to Lin Biluo and Lin Nan in the shop, Wu Bai is also very stretched, since Lin Nan returned to the school, they come back together after school every day, most of the time Wu Bai will go to the shop to coil for a while, and then reluctantly go home.

Lin Nan is used to following Lin Biluo, and when she returns from school, she has to run to the shop first and tell Lin Biluo about the school. He always felt that if it wasn't for the accident at home, the third sister would definitely go to school with him, so he subconsciously compensated a little.

Lin Yong was pulled in by Lin Biluo, she picked a plate of fruit and put it on the counter to beckon Lin Yong to eat, Lin Yong only carefully took a black plum and put it in his mouth, and just waited obediently.

Wu Bai and Lin Nan and Lin Biluo messed around for half an hour, then stretched out and went home. The strange thing is that when Lin Yong saw Wu Bai gone, he also hurriedly went out and followed behind.

This kid used to hate Wu Bai very much, but now he is willing to follow Wu Bai all the way, and even Lin Biluo feels strange: "Brother Yong, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Nan was surprised: "I don't know what's wrong with him, this time I returned to the school, I didn't see him at first, their classroom is some distance from our classroom, one day at noon, I was walking around the courtyard of the school, he saw it, he rushed over at that time, called Brother, and stopped talking." After that, as soon as he got out of class, he would rush to our classroom, and he would not speak when he went, but stood at the door. When asked what was the matter, he shook his head and did not speak. Lin Nan felt that Lin Yong was a little strange when he said it: "Sister, do you think Brother Yong has completely changed?" ”

"Hmm." Lin Biluo guessed: "Could it be that my aunt or second uncle abused him?" It's not right, the last time we went, we saw that he was still very domineering at home, but it just seemed to be ...... Not very talkative? ”

Lin Nan also felt the same way: "Where you don't like to talk, you will soon become dumb." I heard that in class, Mr. Bao asked everyone to read, he was stunned, and the assignment could be completed...... It's just that this temperament is a bit weird...... "People are a lot more sensible, and they don't mischievous."

The two siblings were completely confused by Lin Yong's personality changes. However, Lin Biluo is not a child educator, and Lin Biluo is more concerned about what new dishes are added to his table tonight than whether his cousin's mental health is healthy.

A bag of drunken dates was exchanged for a tael of silver, and a lotus sauce elbow was added to the table in the evening. Lin Nan picked up the rice, and the mouth was full of oil, and the rest of the people seemed to like it too, so they rushed to the whole family to add more food, Lin Biluo felt that the perfection she pursued seemed to be only this, so that the family should not only not reduce the material life without the protection of her father, but also improve it qualitatively.

As for the spiritual life, it seems a bit difficult to find a recreational activity that can satisfy the whole family. This one...... It can be left for later discovery slowly.

What can't be delayed is Lin Biyun's family affairs.

changed the Geng post, after Xiao Ding, he soon booked the day of marriage, just waiting for the male protagonist to be hired.

The Wu family is not a rich family, and the Lin family is the same, Wei media's wife is in the middle to discuss, and the dowry is converted into about 120 taels of silver, and there are all kinds of skirts and jewelry, a set of gold head noodles, a set of silver head noodles, four colored satins, and flowers, tea, fruits, reunion cakes, sheep wine, etc.

He prepared a return gift, sent the visitor away, and began to prepare a dowry for Lin Biyun.

When the employment was sent, relatives and neighbors in the family and even the second room came to the family, Aunt Lin circled around the dowry a few times, and seemed to want to stop talking, Jiang's eyes were eager to burst into flames, but she was still holding the little girl in her arms, but she could be regarded as the fourth sister Lin, thinking that she had at least one dowry to receive, she was a lot more relieved.

When the He family was preparing the dowry, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came, and they were extremely enthusiastic. He's original plan was that the man's dowry would not be touched, and it would be all counted in the dowry as it was, and he would buy some dowry for the eldest sister, tables, chairs, stools and other daily things, and add eighty taels of silver at the bottom of the box, which was also decent.

The mother-in-law is here, she must say a few polite words: "The daughter-in-law is going back to the happy event, and there are many things that I don't understand, so I have to ask my mother." ”

Aunt Lin opened her mouth: "After raising her so big, now you can collect some pension money, even if you didn't raise her in vain." According to me, give the clothes and jewelry sent by the man's family to the eldest sister, add some bedding and the like, and get married in a beautiful way. As for the silver, there was no Li'er who brought it to her mother-in-law's house. ”

When the words fell to the ground, she saw that He's face was a little uncertain, and she even knew what it meant to ask He's - anyway, those hired money are still in He's hands, "How does the Da Lang family feel?" ”

Jiang coaxed the fourth sister in her arms while helping: "What A-Niang said is very true, raising a girl, if Zuihou can't even drop some dowry money, it's better not to raise it, why raise it?" But the rice grain is in vain! ”

Lin Biyun and Lin Biyue, who were hiding in the room to do embroidery work and eavesdropping by the way, heard this, and their hearts were cold.

Dowry is the foundation of a woman's life in her mother-in-law's family, and after that, if Ah Niang listens to the purging of her grandma and aunt, and really acts like this, she is afraid that their sisters will not be able to live well if they marry out in the future.

Lin Biyue whispered hatefully: "I just hope that the fourth sister will grow up quickly, so that my aunt can earn a good dowry money!" ”

Lin Biyun lowered his head and pricked it with a needle, which was unexpectedly pierced on his fingers, and the blood beads that came out suddenly dyed the white silk handkerchief red. This handkerchief was embroidered by her heart, ready to enter the door of Wu's house, and gave it to her sister-in-law Wu Mei, embroidered with practical intentions, who knew that she was restless, and it was destroyed when it was about to be completed. She threw the embroidered tent to the side, and only sat and bit her lip silently.

On the one hand, she felt that she should not be greedy for dowry, the widow mother and younger brother in the family, and there are two younger sisters below who are not married, no matter what, this is a big expense, she is the eldest sister, she can't reduce the burden on the family, even if she can't reduce the burden on the family, how can she still ask He for the dowry?

On the other hand, he secretly hoped that the He family would be relieved and let her bring some dowry to the Wu family. The mind of the daughter to be married is always changeable, one will look forward to a new life, and the other will worry about her mother's family, and Lin Biyun is not a decisive person, and she is even more gentle at the moment.

Outside, Aunt Lin was still trying her best to persuade the He family to lower the standard of marrying a daughter, and when she heard He mention the dowry prepared for the eldest sister, Lin Biyun's heart in the middle slowly fell to the ground, and Lin Biyue's wrung brows gradually loosened, but outside Aunt Lin jumped up: "What? You're a loser! Da Lang's family, don't Da Lang is gone, you will use my Lin family's property to stick to your daughter. Does Brother Nan agree? ”

Jiang listened to the dowry of the eldest sister, and the He family prepared eighty taels of silver at the bottom of the box alone, plus one hundred and twenty-six from the mother-in-law's family, and it turned out to be two hundred taels.

Two hundred taels is not a small amount, plus those clothes, silk forging mattresses, furniture in the new house, etc., and suddenly heartbroken: "Sister-in-law is crazy?" Marrying a girl, why bother spending so much? raised her so big, and was able to send her out of the house, which is already extremely haode, and gave away so many dowries, as well as the silver in the box, where is this to marry a daughter? It's a loser! ”

He was attacked by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but he never showed weakness, but only said firmly: "My eldest sister was originally a child without a father, and Brother Nan was so young that he didn't even have a support." I can't expect the second uncle to support my niece's daughter, in addition to giving more dowry and making her straighter in her in-law's house, what else can I do as a mother? ”

The Jiang family can't wait to say, as long as you share some of the dowry money with us, my husband is very willing to support the eldest sister. I only hated that it was not good to put this on the bright side, so I could only grit my teeth and endure it, and the fourth sister bit the nipple in her arms.

The fourth sister is newly teething, and often tests the firmness of the teeth on the head of the Jiang family's breasts, grinding teeth from time to time, the Jiang family is used to it, but today is really impetuous, and I don't know if it is stimulated by the silver at the bottom of the box pressed by the eldest sister, so he raised his hand and slapped the fourth sister's ass twice: "Dead little hoof, give birth to you is a money-loser!" I didn't point to you to earn money for the family, and I couldn't be greedy for my brother's property! ”

Ho's face has changed!

Jiang's is referring to Sang scolding Huai!

However, she is not the He family of a few years ago, she eased her expression, and said with a smile: "Where do my younger brothers and sisters speak, if they are like my third sister, taking care of the shop in the past few years, not only will they not lose money, but they can also make money for the family, and the family can point to my third sister to support them." Even the dowry of the sisters was earned. Needless to say, when the third sister goes out, her dowry will definitely be earned. The fourth sister is so cute, she will definitely not lose to the third sister in the future, brother and sister, please relax. ”

It is precisely this that the Jiang family hates.

In the past three years, the shop has lost money one after another, and last year it finally reached the point where it couldn't continue, so I could only close the shop first and then make plans. The shop run by Lin Biluo has a prosperous business, not only did it not collapse because of Lin Baosheng's death, but its living standards are also improving. The last time she went back to her parents' house, she heard her brother mention that Ying'er would go to the shop from time to time to buy meat, both raw and cooked.

They couldn't open the pot in the second room, and the big room actually pretended to be stupid and didn't know, which really made people hate in their hearts.
