Chapter 75 The Dowry
Chapter 75 The Dowry
Although she was not very satisfied with the dozens of copper coins that Old Madam Su had, the two taels of money she promised to thank the matchmaker really moved her, and she knew how to accept it when it was good.
"Then you just wait for my good news, and hurry up and prepare a dowry for your daughter!"
Matchmaker Wang went out happily, and only a few people from the Su family were left in the main room. After Mr. Su gave Su Sanlang a blank look, he took a puff of dry smoke before opening his mouth.
"You're really useless, you've been manipulated so badly by your own daughter, you don't even have half a copper coin in your hand?"
Su Sanlang lowered his head and answered in a low voice.
"Father, it's not like you don't know. Since I was injured, I have no business. Where did I get the money? I can't ask my daughter to open my mouth."
After Mr. Su knew that he really had no money, he sighed heavily.
"Go and call your daughter in, I have something to say."
When Su Jinman learned that Mr. Su was looking for her, she was stunned for a moment.
"Father, did I hear you right, grandpa asked me to discuss my sister-in-law's marriage?"
"I didn't say it was to discuss my sister-in-law's marriage. I just let you go over and said that I needed to find you."
It's true that there is no silver 300 taels here. At this time, tell her not to talk about Su Cuilan's marriage. Could it be that there is something good?
Su Jinman didn't want to go at first, but seeing Su Sanlang begging her, she couldn't bear it, so she went anyway.
"Qiaoer, take good care of my mother, make dinner, and I'll come whenever I go."
"Miss, don't worry about going, servants are used to doing these things at home, so there must be no mistakes."
After Su Jinman explained, she and Su Sanlang appeared in the main room again.
Mr. Su was still the same, and Mrs. Su was sitting next to him, looking at the two of them coldly. Su Cuilan was not there, which surprised Su Jinman secretly.
"I heard from my father, Grandpa has something to do with me?"
"Sit down and talk."
After Su Jinman sat down, Mr. Su didn't speak.
"Jin Man, grandpa knows that you are a powerful person. Now your sister-in-law is married to a noble family. Your grandma and I are here at the same age. Your elder brother has already spent all the money in the family after studying all these years. Can't your sister-in-law be without a dowry? "
Mr. Su's understanding of emotion and reason has hit a wall with Su Jinman.
"Grandpa, didn't Matchmaker Wang say that, Mr. Li doesn't value the dowry too much, why do you have to swell your face and pretend to be fat?"
Mr. Su has already been mentally prepared. This girl is not so easy to talk to now, but he always has to think about his daughter, and in the future he has to point to his daughter to help his grandson.
"Jin Man, that's not what you said. Although you married for joy at the time, your grandmother also prepared a dowry for you. Now you have more or less money in your hand to buy some clothes for your sister-in-law. The quilt and the like can be regarded as your wishes, your sister-in-law is married to a noble family, and in the future, you will have to be in the spotlight."
What she said was neither soft nor hard, and Su Jinman kept sneering on her lips. She didn't know what else she needed to ask Su Cuilan in the future.
At this time, Mrs. Su also joined the ranks of persuasion, but it might be counterproductive because she never changed.
"Su Jinman, your master has lowered his figure. You are a divorced woman, why do you still push back? Now I ask you to help my sister-in-law. I think highly of you. If your sister-in-law is not in such a hurry to get married, When Shiqing passes the exam, she can choose a better one, and you won’t be able to find a place to cry. Hurry up, take out 20 taels of silver, and buy your sister-in-law a dowry. It’s money for your make-up , the big deal is that on the day you get married, I will ask your sister-in-law to give you double when you add makeup."
Su Jinman looked at Mrs. Su, opened her innocent eyes wide, and said aggrieved and pitifully.
"Grandma, I didn't mean that. What happened to you is too sudden. I'll buy you all the money."
Mr. Su understood the point, and his face was full of doubts.
"Who are you buying?"
"It's not that my mother is getting older and her belly is getting bigger. She is busy working alone outside the house. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I took out all my belongings and bought three people. Then the whole family can relax. It's a little bit."
"You actually took out all your wealth to buy someone?"
Old Master Su looked at Su Sanlang in disbelief again, hoping that he would give him an answer.
"Yes, Dad, Jin Man really bought three people, and they are helping cook in the kitchen now."
Su Sanlang's words undoubtedly gave Mr. Su a heavy punch. He thought Su Jinman was looking for an excuse to fool them. The only advantage of this son is that he is honest and does not lie.
"Jin Man, don't you have a few taels of silver left?"
Su Jinman said unhurriedly, the anxious Mr. Su wanted to search her body.
"No, there were dozens of taels left, and they all bought land. Our family needs to live, and we can't do without land."
"I just said that she is a prodigal bastard. If you don't listen to me, it's better now. My daughter's dowry is gone."
After Mr. Su pondered for a while, he seemed to have thought of something, and his fighting spirit was ignited again.
"Since they are the ones who bought it, they can naturally sell it. Otherwise, if we sold those three people, wouldn't we have money."
"Father, you have a good brain. I think this idea is really good. Maybe it can be sold at a higher price. When the time comes, I will give Cuilan a piece of gold jewelry. It will be very face-saving."
Su Jinman's eyes fell on Su Sanlang's face, looking at Su Sanlang's shameful and angry face, she felt that it was right to let him come.
"Father, mother, how could you be like this? We three brothers will pay for the dowry of my younger sister. How can my Jin Man pay for it alone?"
It was rare for Su Sanlang to be shrewd, so of course Su Jinman would support him.
"My father is right, as much as the eldest uncle and second uncle pay, our family will pay as much, so as not to say that we don't care about my sister-in-law. And the people I bought are for my own convenience, don't play their ideas, I will know When the time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless and going to court."
Grandpa Su suddenly felt that his brain was not enough, and the former stupid son seemed to be smart.
"I didn't mean that, I just said it casually. Then I will bring the boss and the second to discuss this matter tomorrow. I am tired."
The meaning is very clear, he is going to rest, this is to let them go out.
Su Jinman turned her head and left. Today I really want to praise Su Sanlang, honestly, there are times when I get angry.
"Daddy, you're doing great today."
"Jin Man, I really sympathize with those children. If it wasn't a last resort, who would have sold themselves to be those slaves who were beaten and scolded by others!"
"Father, I know the value of freedom. Let's treat them better in the future and treat them as family members instead of slaves."
"I'm a little worried about your grandma."
"Don't think about it, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge!"
