After crossing, I want to be with you every day

Chapter 41 Dowry Silver
Although Mrs. Liu was not divorced, Mr. Chen still punished her for a month of confinement, and then temporarily gave the housekeeping rights to his younger siblings, the second wife of the Chen family.

Regarding this, Mrs. Chen was naturally happy to continue, after all, she had long been displeased with this eldest sister-in-law.

Mr. Chen still wanted to add more dowry to his daughter, but Mr. Chen did not agree.

"Think about it. After all, she is only married to a farmer's family. Although her family background is innocent, she has lived a mediocre life. You really want to waste all the resources of my Chen family on a low-married girl. body?"

Mr. Chen didn't like to hear these words, but this was what his father said, and he was not easy to contradict.

"Father thinks that the place where Xing'er married is not good, so he is unwilling to give the dowry? But there are rules for daughters of the Chen family to marry. Shouldn't the amount of dowry be treated equally?"

Mrs. Chen choked, of course he knew that his son loved Chen Xinglou and Chen Xingyan's brothers and sisters very much.

But for a woman, marrying an ordinary person, what great fortune can she have in the future?

It's better to save that share for the grandson.

"You don't have to think so, don't worry, although Gongzhong won't give her dowry, but he won't be greedy for her, I will put it directly on Xinglou, so you are satisfied?"

Master Chen stopped talking again.

satisfied?
Of course not satisfied!

Can that be the same?

A son is a son, a daughter is a daughter!
How can I let my daughter be wronged because of this?

In the end, Mrs. Chen decided to give Chen Xingyan only 500 taels of dowry money, and nothing else.

The Chen family's family background is clean, and they have been scholars for generations, and their family background is considered rich. Generally speaking, when a concubine daughter in the family gets married, the dowry silver alone is worth a thousand taels. of.

And Lou's family was promoted as a flat wife, so it stands to reason that Chen Xingyan can also be regarded as a prostitute.

But the old man didn't nod, and Chen Juren couldn't contradict him wantonly. After thinking about it, he felt extremely aggrieved.

But the housekeeper next to him thought of an idea.

Since the dowry is not willing to be given by the public, why not let the wife, the aunt, dowry?

Master Chen's eyes lit up, the mother and daughter have caused Xing'er so badly, they should indeed let them bleed!

Of course, Mr. Chen is also a high-ranking man, so it is impossible to do something that is too cheap. Robbing women's things is not what a gentleman does.

However, he was thinking of using Chen Xinghan to put pressure on Liu Shi.

"Think about it for yourself. I don't want much. You just need to come up with 2000 taels of silver. Xinghan is married and has a shop and a field as a dowry, but Xing'er has nothing. She only takes you. 2000 taels of silver, do you still feel wronged?"

Does Mrs. Liu dare to say no?
dare not!

The future of my children is in the master's hands. If she behaves badly, what if the master turns his anger on the children?

Of course, this is Liu's way of judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart.

Master Chen didn't intend to harm his children, but this time, it's true that he has a little disgust for Chen Xinghan.

For his own selfishness, he could come up with such a vicious scheme to harm his concubine sister. How could such a character be any better?
So Mr. Chen didn't expect Chen Xinghan to have much filial piety towards him after he got married.

Mrs. Liu didn't know what Mr. Chen was thinking, but simply thought that he had something to do with the master, so he had no choice but to agree to the matter.

Although Lou has been there for a few years, she has saved a lot of things, most of which are gold and silver jewelry, and they are all bought for her by Master Chen over the years.

When Lou's family was gone, Mr. Chen decided to put all her things into his warehouse, just waiting to make Xing'er a dowry in the future.

Now, although Chen Xingyan wants to marry far away, and as a father, he may not personally send her to marry him, at least he has to do his part.

Since Mrs. Lou came in, she has been favored all the time, and Mr. Chen himself is not a lustful person, and there are not many women around him. Apart from the two housemates arranged by Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Lou is the only good concubine. up.

Now there are only a few women in his inner house, and since Lou's death, he seldom goes to the inner courtyard.

After sorting everything out, Master Chen arranged for a confidant to transport the two big boxes to Gaoyang County.

"These things are not worth much, most of them are left by Xing'erniang, let her think about them."

The servant got the order and set off early the next morning.

There are two boxes of things, most of which are jewelry that Lou Shi once wore, and some embroidery, which have been treasured by her all the time. Now that her daughter is getting married, Master Chen wants to give her all these things.

Master Chen originally wanted to go there in person, but there are many things involved at the moment, and he still holds the title of teacher in the government school, how can he leave casually?

What's more, going to the north, going back and forth, plus meeting my daughter, would take at least forty or fifty days, which is impossible.

Even if he didn't have these affairs on him, the old man would not allow him to go to the north.

From the old man's point of view, Chen Xingyan had been like this for the rest of his life. This granddaughter was ruined and there was nothing left to hope for, so there was no need to think about her in the future.

Every time he thinks about this, Master Chen always feels a little uncomfortable.

However, he has been taught by his parents and teachers since he was a child, so he can't do anything too extraordinary.

It can be said that the most daring thing he did in his life was to bring the Lou family into the family recklessly.

On the other side, in Gaoyang County, Chen Xinglou called his younger sister Yan Shi.

Whenever Lu Daxiong came to deliver things, he would be dismissed by Chen Xinglou in a few words, in short, they would not be allowed to meet.

Lu Daxiong is so anxious!

If it wasn't because this was his elder brother, he probably would have come to rob someone directly.

After a few times, Lu Daxiong learned to be smart and brought Mrs. Wang along with him.

With Wang's presence, Chen Xinglou couldn't do too much, so he could only let his younger sister come out to meet people.

A few days ago, Chen Xinglou picked a pair of mother and daughter for his younger sister in the dental shop to serve as her younger sister's servants. When they get married in the future, they will be regarded as a dowry.

Lu Daxiong knew that the Chen family was well-off, but now he saw Chen Xingyan who was obviously dressed differently from before, and he was still a little dazed.

This is also great!

Thinking about it, it was as good as walking out of a painting in coarse linen clothes, but now that she is wearing the clothes of this great lady, it is even more beautiful than a real person.

Fortunately, now that Lu Daxiong has joined the inspection department, he can be regarded as a man who eats official food, a serious man with errands.

But even so, the people in Lu's Village all thought that Lu Daxiong was relying on the toad to eat swan meat!
