Chapter 726: Losing Money?
The day after he returned, Village Chief Li began to worship his ancestors.
Last year, Village Chief Li went back to his hometown and moved all the ancestral graves over.
So Village Chief Li took Li Yuanqing and all the men in the clan and began to burn incense and paper.
For a whole day, the Li clan completed the ancestor worship.
Originally, those people in Zhaojia Village and Zhoujia Village only had envy.
Who made them not have a person as capable as Li Yuanqing in their clan?
Not only is Li Yuanqing capable, but he is even more capable of marrying a daughter-in-law.
The ancestral tomb of the old Li family is not only smoking, it is simply on fire!
Finally relaxed, Li Yuanqing and Liu Paner took the children to stroll in the fields.
From time to time, I would greet the villagers who passed by, and sometimes squatted by the stream to wash my hands.
Li Wei likes the southern climate very much, "Daddy, I feel very comfortable living here, and the air I breathe is humid." ”
"It's not like when I was in the north, my mouth and nose were dry all day. Drinking water doesn't solve the problem either. ”
Liu Paner touched her daughter's head, "You were born here, of course you like it here." ”
Seeing lotus flowers blooming in the pond, Li Yuanqing picked the lotus flowers and put them on the heads of Li Wei and Li Nan.
A family of several people, walking on the field road, leisurely.
At this moment, Li Dabao ran over, "Daddy, the Gu family has come to the door to deliver a dowry gift!" ”
When Liu Pan'er heard this, she smiled, "Then let's hurry home and see what dowry the Gu family gave Ali." Let's prepare the dowry on the basis of these dowries. ”
Li Wei blinked, "Mother, is it true that women have to marry when they grow up?" ”
Liu Pan'er nodded, "When a woman grows up and has someone she likes, she can become a monk." It's like when I met your father, I married your father, and then I had you. ”
Li Wei thought for a while, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly, "What if you don't meet someone you like?" ”
Li Yuanqing hugged her daughter, "If you can't meet someone you like, then don't marry!" ”
Li Wei thought about it again, "What if you meet several people you like?" ”
"For example, I also like Brother Da Bao, I also like Brother Xiao Bao, they are all my brothers!"
"Then when I grow up, I meet a lot of people I like, can I marry them? Can they all be my husbands? ”
The child's questioning, although the child's words were unscrupulous, also made Li Yuanqing and Liu Paner stunned.
How can this question be answered?
When Liu Paner and Li Yuanqing didn't think of a suitable answer, Li Nan smiled.
"Jixiang, you can like them at the same time, but you can't marry them at the same time, but you can marry another one after you divorce."
When Liu Pan heard this, there were three black lines on his forehead, "What are you talking nonsense, teach bad children!" ”
Li Nan smiled, "Actually, it's not bad, life is just a few decades, can't you like it more?" ”
Liu Paner said earnestly, "When you see one and love another, it is not love at all, but you will pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelon." ”
"If you really like someone, you have to be him. You're still young, and you'll know when you're older. ”
"Now is not the time for you to discuss these issues, look at your sister Ali's dowry, and go back and we will discuss the preparation of the dowry."
Liu Panpan's words successfully diverted the attention of Li Nan and Li Wei.
"How much is the right dowry?" Li Nan asked, "Is the more the better?" ”
Liu Paner explained to her daughter as she walked, "Marriage is about the right family, which means that the family background of both men and women is about the same. When the economic conditions allow, the man gives the dowry, and the woman adds 20% on the original basis of the dowry, and more is OK, as a dowry, and brings it back to the man's family together with the dowry. ”
Li Wei snapped her fingers and calculated, "The man sent the dowry, and the woman had to prepare more dowry than the dowry, and then send it to the man's house together, wouldn't the woman suffer a lot?" ”
Li Nan nodded, "That's it, the girl married into someone else's family, and the dowry was returned, and the girl still brought the dowry from her mother's family." ”
"Hey, my grandmother used to scold me and Sister Ah Rong for losing money, but now it seems to be true. came and went, and the mother's family didn't catch anything, and they also lost their daughters and dowry. ”
Li Wei nodded, her little face serious, "It's really a loss!" Mother, I don't want to get married when I grow up, I want to marry my husband. ”
Liu Paner was stunned!
On the contrary, Li Yuanqing was full of emotion, "That's it, it's really like this." gave birth to a daughter, married a daughter, and lost a lot of money. ”
Li Nan comforted Li Yuanqing, "Daddy, don't be sad, I will recruit money in the future and strive not to lose money." ”
Li Wei also nodded, "Well, I don't do money-losing goods either." ”
Liu Paner saw that she was starting to "crook the building" again, and hurriedly said: "In fact, after these dowries and dowries were brought back to the man's family, they were not given to the man's family, but as the woman's private property. The in-laws are not qualified to deal with these things, and only women can control these things. ”
"If a woman is capable, she can bear her own things, and she will not worry about eating and drinking for the rest of her life. It can't be measured by a simple loss of money, it's too arbitrary. ”
Li Nan thought for a while, and then said: "Women still have to be stronger, if they are weak, even if these things and money belong to women, they will be misappropriated." Unless you don't want to go over it and tear your face and make a fuss, you can only swallow your anger. ”
Liu Paner took the opportunity to encourage, "Yes, so it's not wrong for women to be smart and tough." This money is not only for women, but also for children in the future. ”
"Think about it, take care of your dowry, and then eat your mother-in-law's family, drink your mother-in-law's family, and the man will also be responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and your children will be able to inherit the man's property in the future. Thinking about it this way, don't you think it's a loss? ”
Li Nan and Li Wei, one older and one young, blinked their eyes at the same time, "Mother, what you said makes sense!" Then you wait for me to grow up, find me the richest family, and then everything in the man's family will be mine. ”
"Uh-uh......" Liu Paner was speechless.
Li Yuanqing swept away his previous melancholy, and felt that Li Nan was reasonable, "Yes, Anan is so smart." ”
Liu Pan'er looked at Li Yuanqing speechlessly, "You are also unreliable." ”
Li Yuanqing didn't care, "It's better to encroach on other people's property than to be encroached upon by others, haha......"
The general who is good at opening up territory is such a thinking.
When she returned home, Liu Paner didn't have time to give her daughter "ideological education".
The matchmaker said congratulations, and the dowry gift sent by the Gu family was filled with a full yard, and it was a full thirty-two lifts.
Liu smiled and was very satisfied with the dowry given by the Gu family.
Over the years, she has saved a lot of money and successively bought a lot of dowries for her daughter. Coupled with the silver that Ali secretly gave her, it was not difficult to buy a decent dowry.
The people of Jixiang Village all came to see.
At the beginning, Li Fang's dowry was sixteen.
The Liu family also prepared sixteen lifts, and the boxes were stuffed to the bridle, and they made up thirty-two dowries to marry their daughter Fengguang.
