Chapter 104: To Each His Own Mind
Bai Xiaoyu was reprimanded by Sifang, she wanted to grab Sifang's hair and beat her hard, but Bai Laosi stood in front to protect her, and she had no choice.
Bai Xiaoyu had no choice but to stare at Sifang and continued:
"The third and fourth daughters-in-law, you two said you don't have any money, don't you?, you all came here with dowries, take this opportunity today to take out all your dowries!"
Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao heard Bai Xiaoyu mention the word dowry, and their eyes suddenly widened.
Mrs. Xiao also stood up from the kang: "That's right, the third and fourth, didn't you two say that you have no money, don't you two still have a dowry?"
Bai Qingshan leaned on the kang and didn't say a word, however, he looked at his wife and daughter with an approving look in his eyes.
The dowry given by the mother-in-law to the daughter is that the daughter cannot live a good life in the mother-in-law's house, so that the daughter can subsidize the family, or when there is an urgent need, she will not be unprepared.
An ordinary mother-in-law would not ask for a daughter-in-law's dowry.
But the Bai family is not an ordinary family, and they are also shameless to come home.
Bai Qingshan, Mrs. Xiao, married her daughter-in-law not so that her son could live a happy life, but to covet the dowry of her daughter-in-law's mother's family.
Marrying a daughter-in-law does not depend on her appearance and conduct, first of all, it depends on whether her family can come up with a dowry!
The Li family of the big house was the first to enter the Bai family, and the dowry of more than ten taels of silver brought by the Li family had already been collected in his pocket by the old lady and Bai Qingshan.
When Chu Xintian married Bai Er, the dowry brought by Chu Xintian was not brought by himself, but was directly handed over to Bai Qingshan by the Chu family.
This is Chu Xintian's stepmother's idea, and her stepmother has already inquired, the second elder of the Bai family is not a good thing, she asked Chu Xintian to marry Bai Er, that is, to let Chu Xintian suffer.
She knew that if the dowry was in Chu Xintian's hands, the second elder of the Bai family would of course be polite to Chu Xintian, but she directly gave the dowry to the second elder of the Bai family, and Chu Xintian had no silver in his hand, so they would naturally not be too good to her.
Sure enough, after Chu Xintian got married, Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao got Chu Xintian's dowry, and they turned their faces ruthlessly and treated Chu Xintian as a servant.
Fortunately, Bai Er felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, and soon separated from the family.
Now the third and fourth daughters-in-law have only married in this year, and Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao have not yet come up with a good way to cheat their dowry.
At this time, Bai Xiaoyu proposed that the third room and the fourth room hand over their dowry, which spoke to Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao's hearts.
As long as the third room and the fourth room can hand over the dowry, Bai Qingshan not only has more silver in his pocket, but also Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao can also call the third room and the fourth room at will in the future.
In fact, Bai Xiaoyu is mentioning the dowry now, not to help Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao make money, but for herself.
Bai Xiaoyu knew how much her father and mother loved money, and the reason why she didn't marry was that the second elder of the Bai family was waiting to marry her to a wealthy family, so that she could get a lot of dowry!
They will not agree to a bride price of ten taels or twenty taels.
They think that raising their daughter so big and selling it for twenty taels of silver is a loss, at least they have to sell it for fifty-six taels of silver!
But in a village like Sungai, spending 20 taels to marry a daughter-in-law is the most, who can afford to marry a daughter-in-law of 50 taels?
What's more, those who can afford fifty or sixty taels, Mrs. Xiao and Bai Qingshan don't weigh it themselves, is that what they can climb?
Bai Xiaoyu is not a fairy, she looks ordinary, and her age is not young, how can she marry a rich family? It's impossible to even go and be a concubine.
But Bai Qingshan and Mrs. Xiao didn't care, they just wanted to wait for a rich man to marry Bai Xiaoyu, get the silver by themselves, and live a comfortable life. COM
