Chapter 599 Dowry
After a few glasses of wine, the men were a little smug, and their words were almost blown away. Tong Yao felt that the time was almost up, she winked at Gu Hongwei, and then smiled: "Uncle Guo, I heard you say that your family Did you buy a house in the city?"

When Deng Qiuxia heard this, her expression became a little nervous, and she gave Guo Xinpei a wink, but at this time, Guo Xinpei was so full of bragging that he didn't even look at her.

Guo Xinpei showed off and said: "Then there is still a fake? My family has a house in the city, who doesn't know about it?"

Aunt Guo didn't know that Guo Xinpei had mortgaged the house at this time, so she nodded and agreed, "My third brother does have a house in the city, it's not false at all."

Worried that Tong Yao would not believe it, Aunt Guo also mentioned the location, without mentioning that the house was bought by Guo Jinnian with money.

Guo Jinnian was a little angry and couldn't help but said, "I bought that house."

Aunt Guo said: "Isn't what you bought belonged to your parents? You are not married yet, and you have not separated. The money you earn and the house you buy belong to your parents? How can there be a girl who is not married and earns money?" I brought all the money back to my in-laws’ house, and we didn’t say that in our ten miles and eight villages.”

Deng Qiuxia also said: "Jin Nian, we are all one family, why do you divide things so clearly?"

She said so, but in fact Deng Qiuxia was very guilty. She was worried that people would know about the mortgage of the house. If Tong Yao and Gu Hongwei knew that her husband was a gambler and the house had been gambled away, they might look down on their family.

Guo Jinnian became even angrier when he heard this, and was about to refute, but was stopped by Tong Yao's eyes.

Seeing Guo Jinnian humiliating himself in front of outsiders, Guo Xinpei was a little unhappy. He pointed at Guo Jinnian and scolded angrily, "I gave you all your flesh and blood. What do you think is your own?"

A trace of coldness flashed in Tong Yao's eyes, then she smiled and said: "Uncle Guo is right, the grace of childbearing is greater than the sky."

Guo Xinpei felt more comfortable, and praised: "It's because you read a lot and are more sensible."

Tong Yao's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Uncle Guo, we've reached this day, and we haven't even talked about what we should do about Jin Nian and Hongwei's marriage."

When Deng Hongxia heard this, she hurriedly said, "Your Uncle Guo drank too much, let's talk when you wake up tomorrow!"

Knowing her husband's virtue after drinking, Deng Hongxia was very worried that Guo Xinpei would slip up.

Guo Xinpei glared at Deng Qiuxia, "I'm talking about Jinnian's marriage with my sister-in-law, why are you interfering?"

When Deng Qiuxia heard this, she didn't dare to say a word. Guo Xinpei was easy to beat people when she was drunk. She was already scared after being beaten several times.

Seeing that she was being honest, Guo Xinpei looked at Tong Yao with a smile, "It is said that the eldest sister is like a mother, your parents are not here, and now you are the master of the house, what do you plan to do?"

Seeing his appearance, Tong Yao knew that the plan was half successful, and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, our family respects your ideas. Aunt Deng is also from Kyoto, and she knows that the marriage customs in Kyoto and here are different. Similarly, Jin Nian is marrying far away, so now we have two ways, one is to follow the customs in Kyoto, and the other is to follow the customs here."

Guo Xinpei was originally a character who likes to swell his face to pretend to be fat. At this time, he drank again, and when he heard what Tong Yao said, he immediately pretended to be generous and said: "Jin Nian is going to marry you in Kyoto, don't worry about it." Follow our customs here, follow yours."

Guo Xinpei thought secretly, all the rich families in Kyoto, according to the customs in Kyoto, it costs a lot of money to marry a wife, and it will be his family who will take advantage of it.

If you follow this way, marrying a daughter-in-law and giving you three big things, how is it comparable to what Tong Yao promised?
"This..." Tong Yao pretended to be embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, if you want me to say, follow your customs! If you follow ours, I'm worried about you It's not acceptable here."

"Is there anything unacceptable?" Guo Xinpei waved his hand, "When a man speaks, he spit and nails. Wherever he can break his promise, he will follow your customs. If you have any problems, you can just speak up."

Guo Jinnian and Gu Hongwei saw that Guo Xinpei was trapped by Tong Yao step by step, they couldn't help giving Tong Yao a thumbs up in their hearts.

High, really high.

Tong Yao has figured out Guo Xinpei's temper, and is dragging her into a trap step by step.

Tong Yao laughed crisply and said, "Uncle Guo, since you said that, I'll just say it directly. On our side, if the man gives a lot of gifts, the woman's family has to give a symbolic dowry."

Before Guo Xinpei could speak, Tong Yao said again: "Uncle Guo, you also know that our family is rich, not short of a little money, and the main relatives are also businessmen. I am afraid that if we don't follow the custom, we will be laughed at by relatives. When the time comes, our family decides to open a breeding farm for you to support your family. We also want to build roads and build houses to give a gift of 5000 yuan. If there is a dowry, my parents will probably agree to give a gift of [-] yuan. One in a million."

"Then let's follow our customs!" Deng Qiuxia answered anxiously.

Her family is so poor now, how can there be money for dowry?

Guo Xinpei was so angry that he threw his wine glass at Deng Qiuxia, "Who asked you, a bitch, to interrupt, what's your business?"

Although Deng Qiuxia missed the blow, she was quite frightened, and she dared not say anything.

Aunt Guo knew Guo Xinpei's temper, so she didn't dare to speak out.

Tong Yao pretended to be worried about the quarrel between their husband and wife, and deliberately said aggressively: "Uncle Guo, my parents said, I respect your family's opinion, you can discuss it with your aunt when you wake up, and then make a decision. It doesn’t have to be a decision right now.”

Although Guo Xinpei was drunk at this time, his mind was still a little sober. He had said everything just now. How could he regret it when he heard about the dowry?
Isn't this slapping yourself in the face?

If you really want to follow their customs, you can't get this sky-high betrothal gift.

Isn't it dowry?

The big deal is to marry that house in the city. Anyway, that house is only 3000 yuan, which is nothing compared to the dowry gift given by Tong's family. A fool can calculate this account.

Besides, even if the dowry is over in name, Tong's family will not come to live in this house in the capital, won't they live in it then?

At this time, Guo Xinpei's abacus was clinking, and he completely forgot that the house was mortgaged by him.

"Just according to your customs, when the time comes, I will marry the house in the city to Jin Nian. Although the house is not very valuable, in our small county, it is definitely the only dowry house for my daughter. "
