Chapter 15 asks for a dowry

Because Chu Zhengxiong was scolding and slapping the table, there were many people outside the door who were watching the excitement, and their eyes were full of contempt when they looked at Sister Chu Xiaoliu.

Zhu secretly applauded in her heart, and after putting on a weak and pitiful expression, she leaned on the door frame and said to everyone sadly: "Everyone, help me stop these two sisters, my legs and feet are inconvenient, and I can't stop them." It's dark, if they really run away in a bad mood, where will they live! ”

Zhu usually looks virtuous and gentle, and speaks softly but generously, so most of the people in the village are good friends with her. And the Chu Xiaoliu sisters had a very bad reputation in the village because they "stole" her dowry wooden box.

When everyone heard this, they naturally helped the Zhu family stop in front of the Chu Xiaoliu sisters, and they also pushed and shoved from time to time, and kept shouting in their mouths.

"As I said before, this kind of thief who steals things can't be kept, and sooner or later he will bite back!"

"It's so unconscionable, it's better to raise them than to raise a dog, at least when you go back, you still know how to wag your tail at the old lady."

"Phew, a little who doesn't have a good face."

……

Chu Xiaoliu listened to the foul words in his ear, calm as an ice bodhisattva.

In fact, the so-called stealing things are all designed by Zhu.

Before the original owner's mother died, she gave the original owner a small wooden box that could not be opened, and the two sisters attached great importance to it. But after the big-bellied Zhu entered the door, she directly said that the small box was her dowry and grabbed it herself. The two sisters obviously didn't touch Zhu, but Zhu somehow fell and almost miscarried.

The widow next door came to see this scene, and suddenly made everyone know about the original sister's stealing and pushing the pregnant stepmother. The original sisters were almost kicked out of the village because of this, but Zhu, who was still sick in bed, knelt in front of the main gate of the house to save them.

After this time, who doesn't boast that the daughter-in-law of the Chu family is well married? And the Chu Xiaoliu sisters, with the indelible brand of the word "stealing", crossed the street and shouted.

At this time, the villagers who surrounded them and scolded them didn't see that Chu Xiaoliu and the others were not repentant and afraid, they felt bored, and gradually turned out their voices.

In the end, it was Lizheng's daughter-in-law who stepped forward and said to Chu Xiaoliu: "According to me, you two girls don't make a fuss, at night, how can there be two girls running out by themselves?" Since you like Boss Tian, marry him. Don't women all marry chickens and dogs? ”

Chu Xiaoliu looked at Lizheng's daughter-in-law who kindly persuaded her, and decided for a long time.

Suddenly, she spoke: "I'll marry!" ”

"Xiaoliu, if you don't marry Boss Tian...... What the?! Do you marry? Zhu was stunned, and the words suddenly stuck in his throat.

Chu Xiaoliu moved his gaze to the Zhu family, whose eyes were shining with joy, and hooked his lips slightly: "Yes, I will marry, as long as my mother prepares a dowry for me." ”

Hearing the dowry, Zhu's face stiffened, but she didn't say much in front of everyone, just maintained her image of a loving mother: "Okay, good, my mother will prepare a dowry for you, as long as you are obedient!" ”

Chu Xiaoliu nodded lightly and continued: "Xiaoliu is not greedy, but she especially likes a small dowry box from her mother, and her mother can give it to me." By the way, it must be the little wooden box that made our mother and daughter have a conflict, and today I want to take this box to apologize to my mother. ”

She deliberately said the words "small wooden box" more heavily, but there was a bit of sarcasm in her eyes.

The box was obviously snatched by the Zhu family from her, but outsiders thought it was Zhu's.

"This ......" Zhu hesitated a little, full of embarrassment.

When Chu Xiaoliu saw it, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile, with a bit of mockery.

The box given to the original body by the original mother had a mechanism, and the two sisters couldn't open it. So she believes that the Zhu family can't open it, and although she wants the box now, she actually wants the contents of the box.

Seeing that Zhu Shi didn't speak for a long time, she lowered her eyes and said gloomily: "My daughter is about to get married, isn't my mother even willing to give her daughter a worthless wooden box?" The daughter who got married spilled the water, and the daughter just wanted to keep a memory and let herself remember the grace of her mother's education. ”

After speaking, Chu Xiaoliu raised her tearful eyes and looked at the daughter-in-law of the Zheng family, who was extremely pitiful.

The daughter-in-law of the Li Zheng family was a little hesitant, and after thinking about it, she opened her mouth and said to the Zhu family: "The little girl is married to Boss Tian...... Sort of, ahem. Now that I know Ji'en, I might as well give her that wooden box, it won't cost any money anyway. ”

Zhu's face became even more ugly.

Chu Xiaoliu suddenly knelt straight to the bottom and thanked him loudly: "Mother! In the past, it was your daughter who was unfilial and often made you angry, but seeing that you are now willing to give your small dowry box to your daughter, her daughter knows that she has misunderstood. My mother obviously treats me as her own! ”

After speaking, she kowtowed neatly, and her words were sincere, making it impossible to refuse.

At this time, Zhu, who was thinking about how to excuse himself, felt that someone behind him pulled him, and when he turned around, he saw Chu Zhengxiong, who was hiding behind the door and didn't want to show his face, was a little irritable and said, "Isn't it just a small wooden box?" You just forget it for her, and I'll call you a new one in a few days. ”
