Chapter 216: Arranged Marriages in the Seventies 10
Cheng's father is not very old in the end, and he is not a big fish and meat on weekdays, and there are no various geriatric diseases such as high blood pressure in the future, so after a short period of stinging, he quickly came to his senses and grabbed his panicked little daughter: "It's okay, I'm fine."
However, the trembling voice in that tone didn't seem like it was okay.
He's really angry!
There is also a little bit of weakness.
Old Man Mu actually has a dowry list left by his father to Cheng Yanling?!
His father even told Old Man Mu about this?!
It can't be to guard against him, right?
Cheng's father was cold, biting his cheeks, pondering how to deal with this matter.
He really didn't think that Cheng Yanling would say this, he was a little caught off guard, he always thought that this kid didn't know that the old man had left something, and he said casually a quarter of an hour ago, after all, everyone is dead, how much is not up to him?
Cheng Xiaoxiao was a little relieved, but she was also anxious: "Dad, what does she mean by this? Then what you said before, give it to Sister Miaomiao, don't you count it?"
Father Cheng took a deep breath, slowly calmed down, shook his head and said, "I'll go talk to her."
Cheng Yanling walked too fast, and he probably had already returned to the room at this time.
Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly: "Then you hurry up and tell her, how can you be so selfish?" At the beginning, her grandfather said that she left her a dowry for marrying Brother Aze, and now that she is not married, what does it matter if she gives a little bit to Sister Miaomiao?!"
Father Cheng agrees very much, but isn't that the case?
Besides, they are not married to the grandchildren of the Mu family, so there is no need for so much dowry.
Maybe you won't even be able to marry into the Mu family.
Du Miaoxue is different, people have already asked Mu Ze to disobey Old Man Mu for her, this marriage is ironclad, once she is added, she doesn't have to worry about the future.
Although looking at the husband and wife of the Mu family's big house and their family, in fact, there is still a big difference between half a catty and eight taels, not to mention the other rooms of the Mu family, as well as the connections accumulated by the Mu family in other classes, which should not be underestimated.
The benefits are obvious.
Nature cannot be offended.
Cheng's father figured out this key, so he told Cheng Xiaoxiao not to tell her about today's matter, he would solve the matter, and after making sure that his daughter listened, he wiped his face and chased him out.
There was a knock on the door, and as soon as Cheng Yanling opened the door, she saw Cheng's father's serious expression, and she raised her eyebrows: "Anything else?"
Father Cheng: "Let me go in and say."
Cheng Yanling didn't bother to stand, took a step back, and let him in.
Cheng's father entered the door and closed the door as soon as possible, this kind of thing still has to close the door to say that it is more appropriate, and then he took a chair and sat down and looked at the room.
There should be everything in the room, it was the day Cheng Yanling said that he was going back, Zou Ping cleaned it up, and the bed and everything else were bought now, just like Miaomiao and Xiaoxiao, impartial.
As a second wife, Zou Ping can do this, so that Cheng's father does not have to worry about trivial matters at home, in fact, he is very satisfied, although she brought a stepdaughter, but she also treats the children equally, Xiaoxiao also likes her very much, Miaomiao is also a sensible child.
Therefore, he naturally could not let this child be wronged.
I've said everything before, I can't regret it because of Cheng Yanling's words, right?
For this reason, Cheng's father looked at the daughter who was sitting opposite and had a lazy attitude, and just as he was about to speak, he felt a headache, this child now relies on clothes, and looks a lot better, but that attitude is really not as good as the two daughters who have been raised at home since childhood!
After all, he grew up in the village.
Short-sighted, but also in the eyes of money, the bias is higher than the sky, and everything has to be occupied.
A hint of disgust flashed in Cheng's father's eyes, but a soft smile still appeared on his face: "Just now you said that your grandfather Mu told you that your grandfather left you a dowry?"
Cheng Yanling bowed his head and waited curiously for him to continue.
Father Cheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he quickly let go: "But you know what? This is the dowry for you and Aze's marriage, and now that you and Aze's child don't look at each other, the situation is naturally different."
Cheng Yanling smiled a little: "So what's the difference?"
"Since the marriage contract between our two families has not been counted, your grandfather was able to keep so much for the sake of Aze's child, and now Miaomiao wants to marry Aze, so I am in charge of dividing the dowry into two, don't worry, even if the two of you divide it, the dowry is definitely a lot." Cheng's father swore an oath.
"Poof!" Cheng Yanling couldn't help laughing: "What you said really makes sense."
The little girl's voice was crisp and smiling, sounding like a compliment.
But Cheng's father was laughed at by her, and he inexplicably felt a burst of shame and ridicule, his face collapsed, and he couldn't sit down and wanted to leave.
I heard Cheng Yanling say, "I'm a little curious, did grandpa leave a property for you, Cheng Jiayan, and Cheng Xiaoxiao?"
Father Cheng hesitated for a moment, but where could this kind of thing be hidden, he still nodded: "Stay."
Cheng Yanling blinked, and her much whiter little face was full of curiosity: "You want to give half of the dowry left to me by grandpa to Du Miaoxue, and what grandpa left you, will you also give her half?"
Father Cheng's eyes widened: "How can this be the same?!"
Cheng Yanling spread his hands: "How is it different?" She restrained her smile and sneered: "I really don't think I know, the money that my grandfather left me is the dowry for me, whether I marry Mu Ze or not, he will leave me so much, why do you have to give so much to Mu Ze, you are stupid to me!"
Cheng's father's face trembled, and he was a little ugly when he was said, and he didn't choose to say anything for a while: "You are not stupid, you are terrifyingly shrewd!" But your grandfather left you so many things, more than your brothers and sisters, what is there to give a little bit to Miaomiao?! That's enough stuff for you to eat and drink for the rest of your life!"
Cheng Yanling felt even more funny: "The factory pays you more than 300 wages every month, which is so much more than those temporary workers and those workers who have just entered the factory, why don't you give them a little bit as well?" After all, even if you don't have any left, the things that grandpa gave you are enough for you to eat and drink for the rest of your life, right?"
"You !!" Father Cheng's face was flushed, trembling and pointing at her, and said hatefully, "What do you know about a child!"
Cheng Yanling sneered: "Yes, I don't understand, but what my grandfather left me, I just lost it, and I won't give it to Du Miaoxue, this is clear enough, right?" You have to think that Du Miaoxue's dowry is less, post it yourself, the list is in my hand, tomorrow I come back from school, I must see that everything is there, otherwise I will go and ask Grandpa Mu to come over and take a look, how can you swallow what Grandpa gave me!"
Father Cheng got up, gritted his teeth and said, "You just use Old Man Mu as a token, don't you?" I thought I was afraid of him!"
Cheng Yanling was noncommittal: "It doesn't matter if you're afraid of me, anyway, if there are fewer things, I have to invite him to come."
Cheng's father was really angry this time, his face turned pale, and his eyes were even colder when he looked at Cheng Yanling, there is not much love, men and women are different, women give birth to children, they will secrete hormones to urge maternal love, but men will not, he and the original owner have not spent much time together, and there is naturally not much affection.
And after this kid comes back, in addition to embarrassing him, he is against him everywhere, domineering and hateful, where is there still fatherly love?
Father Cheng was also really angry, nodded straight, and sneered: "Okay, it's all for you, don't worry, I don't care about your little thing."
With that, he opened the door and went out.
The sound of the door closing was very loud.
However, the person who wanted to be scared just yawned lazily and rolled his eyes.
It's really standing up and standing.
Obviously, I just don't want to give me more dowry, so I want her to give more, and I'm embarrassed to say such a thing?
This night, Cheng's father tossed and turned angrily for most of the night.
Zou Ping was woken up by him and asked him what was going on, but Cheng's father didn't have the face to say.
A few days ago, he said that he wanted to give Du Miaoxue the dowry, but who knew that Old Man Mu even gave Cheng Yanling a list, and she had this attitude, he didn't want a penny now.
Therefore, he is particularly weak about Zou Ping.
Finally, Cheng's father couldn't bear it and fell asleep, but the next day, he was even more worried.
Cheng Yanling's state
Du was decisive, he really didn't dare to let her go to Old Man Mu to come over, otherwise he would lose his face, and he could only grit his teeth and move out the things left by his father.
For this reason, he also took half a day off, and he was tired and had back pain.
What the child's grandfather left behind is naturally not money, but something that cannot be taken out in this era.
Gold bars, gold bricks, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc.
Six whole boxes! Heavy.
This is all for Cheng Yanling.
If she hadn't come back, these things would have been theirs, but if she came back, and Old Man Mu had the backing, that thing would have to be given out.
His father has been thinking about this child for more than ten years, and he read it before he died, because Cheng Yanling is his first granddaughter, just the year the child was born, he and the child's mother were busy at work, and the old man had a lot of time, so he had been taking care of the child himself.
It's just an accident, the child was lost, and the old man blamed himself, thinking that he was not optimistic, and he had been looking for someone else, but there was no news.
In the end, this dowry, in addition to his concern for his granddaughter, also has his guilt, so it is very heavy.
The heavy box was opened, and Cheng's father himself had a copy, seeing these, he also gave birth to a bit of possessiveness, he followed his father since he was a child, and later learned calligraphy and Chinese painting, although he didn't have much success, but in the end he liked these things, and the aesthetics were also online, knowing how much these things were worth.
The country will not always be like this, and countless people firmly believe that the day when these good things will see the light of day again, at that time, these are priceless treasures.
That's a cheap white-eyed wolf!
Cheng's father locked Cheng Yanling's door hatefully, and suddenly heard the sound of the door opening from the first floor, he subconsciously turned around, and in the corridor on the second floor, he saw Zou Ping who came back from work early to cook.
The four eyes were facing each other, and Cheng's father opened his eyes with a weak heart.
Zou Ping didn't take it seriously at first, although it was strange why he was at the door of Cheng Yanling's room, but when he saw his attitude, he was suspicious: "Old Cheng, why didn't you go to work today?"
Cheng's father wanted to be vague about the past.
But I'm embarrassed to lie, after all, this matter, even if you lie, you have to debunk it later, after hesitating for a moment, he said dejectedly: "I...... I gave her what my dad had left for the kid."
Zou Ping subconsciously wanted to nod, but her brain understood the meaning of these words first, and froze directly: "What did you say?"
Cheng's father: "......"
Zou Ping panicked, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps: "You won't give it all to her, will you?!"
Otherwise, Father Cheng would not have this attitude.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished asking, he saw Cheng's father blushing with an old face, and tried his best to hide it in a casual tone: "In the end, my father left it to her, but don't worry, I will make up for Miaomiao's child, and I won't break my word if I say it."
Zou Ping: "............"
His uncle's!
Are you embarrassed to say that you won't break your promise?
So what's going on now!
You have to know what the old man left behind, although she doesn't know how much, but it is definitely a lot, Lao Cheng said that he wants to make up for it, can he afford to make it up? ! She also hinted to Xia Xiao'e about the amount of her daughter's dowry.
Thinking of Xia Xiao'e, Zou Ping's eyebrows jumped, and her face became even more ugly.
Finished!
Xia Xiao'e is not a person who is easy to get along with, if the number is not reached, and her daughter marries, I am afraid that she will not be able to please her......
Happy New Year's Day!
