Chapter VI The purchase of dowry
Once the division is decided, the next step is to divide the property.
In this link, the old woman who had been quiet for a long time made trouble again, not only the old woman, but also those in the Qiao family who were guilty about Qiao Wanshi's sister and brother a moment ago also immediately started chattering after it came to their own interests, for fear that Qiao Wanshi and them would share more things.
Qiao Wanshi sneered, she could be regarded as having seen through this family, and she didn't need to count the property, so she said directly: "My mother brought a few thousand taels of silver when she came to the house, and now I don't want a few thousand taels, and I don't want a house or anything, as long as the twenty acres of land in ten miles plus five hundred miles of silver, grandpa, do you think this is okay?" ”
"You're not going to rob it!"
"Five hundred taels!! How can there be so much silver at home!! ”
"Still !! land"
As soon as Qiao Wanshi's words fell, Qiao's family was not calm and refuted one after another.
The clan elder and Li Zheng were also shocked by Qiao Wanshi's words, not because of her lion's mouth, but because of the money brought by Qiao's mother, they knew that Qiao's mother had brought a lot of money, but they didn't expect it to be so much.
A few thousand taels.
You know, ten taels of silver is enough for a family in the village to live for a year.
However, because they knew the amount of money brought by Qiao's mother, everyone had an opinion on Qiao's family.
took so much money from other people, so I gave food to other children's mouths, do you see the life of these three children? !
I've seen a black-hearted person, but I've never seen such a black-hearted person.
Several people looked at the old man Qiao with disdain. It's spicy, Uncle Qiao is also a little embarrassed in his heart, he didn't feel anything before, but today Qiao Wanshi said this...... I really think they're a bit too much.
However, twenty acres of land, five hundred taels of silver is still a lot.
In the past two years, the sky has not been beautiful, and their family has provided for several students, the expenses are very large, and the family has no money now, if it is given to Qiao Wanshi, there will be no money when Qiao Hongda and them come to get living expenses in a few days.
But the old man is still there, and it's not his turn to call the shots for this kind of thing.
The old man felt that he was under a lot of pressure, and if he hadn't thought about it before, he would have refused, but Qiao Wanshi's words just now were like a thorn in his heart, making him finally realize his debt to them, and also making him unable to make a decision.
He didn't decide, but Qiao Wanshi forced him to decide.
"If you feel that you are at a loss, you can also take stock of your property." Qiao Wanshi said: "There are more than 120 acres of land at home, 40 acres for three families, 15 taels for one acre of land, and 20 acres are thrown away, which is 300 taels, and the remaining 200 taels. Three hundred taels, right?! ”
"......" everyone in the Qiao family.
"Wanshi, you count the three of us, you don't count your grandparents, your grandparents are still young, they should also be counted as one." The third aunt couldn't hold it back.
"Grandparents really should be counted."
"Yes, we'll have to do the math too." The old woman immediately chimed in.
When she thought of Qiao Wanshi and they were going to share so much money, she felt pain in her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.
"Grandpa, what do you say?!"
The old man remained silent.
In the end, one of the clan elders said, "Or count it as four." ”
"Fourth Grandpa, I know what you mean." Qiao Wanshi looked up at him: "But fourth grandfather, you forgot one thing, when my mother married into the Qiao family, the Qiao family was poor, and now all that the Qiao family has is purchased by my mother's dowry, and the dowry is supposed not to participate in the division of the family, these things should all belong to our three sisters and brothers, without them Qiao family has nothing to do, now I take these things out and divide them, I still remember that they are my father's family, they are good, I don't know how grateful but greedy enough." ”
Although these things were purchased by her mother's "dowry", Qiao Wanshi knew in her heart that it was absolutely impossible to get them all back, so after careful consideration, she chose a price that could allow them to gain a foothold in the county and be acceptable to Qiao's family.
"What Wanshi said is true." Grandpa Seventh said that he had long been tired of this family, with a few stinky money, and his eyes were on the top of his head.
"No, I don't allow it!" The old woman strongly objected, she would never allow Qiao Wanshi to take away the five hundred taels from the family, those were the money for her good grandchildren to study, why should she give Qiao Wanshi.
The more the old woman thought about it, the more it was like this.
The more fierce the opposition became, and the rest of the Qiao family also fanned the flames, and the yard suddenly turned into a vegetable market, making a lot of noise.
Qiao Wanshi pinched Qiao Dabao's neck for a while, and Qiao Hongda's daughter-in-law who saw it was frightened, pulling her aunt's sleeve and said: "Mother, let's agree, Wanshi wants to leave mainly for money, and the family's land is still there, as long as there is land, are you afraid that you won't be able to earn five hundred taels?" And Wanshi is right, these things were originally the second aunt's ......"
"Yes, yes, yes, you loser." Hearing her words, the old woman was immediately upset.
"But grandma, the treasure is in her hands." Qiao Hongda's daughter-in-law said helplessly.
"......" The old woman suddenly became like a deflated ball.
Qiao Dabao, her good great-grandson.
But even if it was for Qiao Dabao, she gave Qiao Wanshi so much money and land, she was still very reluctant in her heart.
Not to mention the third uncle and the third aunt of Qiao, their faces turned black into a big iron pot, but they didn't dare to object.
I can only sulk on my own.
The clan elder and Li just helped them sort things out, and finally the old man made a decision: "Okay, according to what you said, twenty acres of land, five hundred taels of silver, and the old woman will go to get the money and the title deed." ”
The old woman didn't move.
Although Qiao Dabao agreed, she was still very dissatisfied.
Seeing that she didn't move, the old man's face suddenly darkened: "Didn't you hear what I said?" ”
The old woman originally wanted to refute, but when she saw that the old man's face was dark, she looked at Qiao Dabao in Qiao Wanshi's arms again, and agreed humiliatingly.
took the money and the title deed, and the old woman did not hand it over to the old man, nor did she give it to Qiao Wanshi, but said to Qiao Wanshi: "Pay the money with one hand and hand it over to the person, I will give you the money, and you will return the treasure." ”
Qiao Wanshi was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had become smarter, until she saw Qiao Hongda's daughter-in-law standing beside her, it seemed that she should have taught her to say this.
However, Qiao Wanshi did not agree.
"Then you take it first, let's talk about my marriage to Tuesday now, and to tell you honestly, it is impossible for me to marry Tuesday."
Hearing Qiao Wanshi's refusal, Qiao Hongda's daughter-in-law's teeth itched, but she couldn't help it.
The old woman was even more exaggerated than her, and almost jumped up.
"No way!"
Qiao Wanshi cried before and said that she forgot about this stubble when she broke up, and now she has the opportunity to pinch her, how could she let go of this opportunity, as long as she marries Qiao Wanshi, the money and Tian she just divided are not hers.
The old woman said in a hurry and quickly, quite a little impatient, after saying that she realized it herself, and hurriedly introduced: "The words of the matchmaker of your parents, your parents are gone, you have to listen to us in this matter, and you tell me that you don't marry today, so how can you do it?" ”
