Chapter 778 Should I ask for a bride price?
Wang Ying immediately agreed, "Her second aunt is right. Her second uncle relies on his own efforts. How can he rely on his father-in-law?"

Last night, Gu Jinghui kept envying Gu Jingchuan for having a rich and powerful father-in-law. He disliked her mother-in-law in both words and deeds, which made Wang Ying feel very unhappy.

At this time, I finally found an opportunity and fought back.

"Jing Hui, stop talking nonsense to me. Do you think Jingchuan is like you and only wants to rely on others?"

Gu Jinghui bowed his head and remained silent after being scolded.

He felt like a mirror in his mind. Even if he had a rich and powerful father-in-law, he would not be able to achieve anything. At most, he would only be able to manage people and get some money to spend.

He just didn't want to admit this fact in front of his brothers and sisters.

That's why I said that on purpose.

"Brother, it's not surprising that people like you have such thoughts. After all, you never know what hard work is." Tang Min was also offended by Gu Jinghui's absurd reasoning. She looked at him with contempt on her face, "Are you Do you think your parents won’t grow old? Do you think that if your parents can’t support you when they get old, Jing Qi and Jing Xiu will take over their duties?”

Gu Jinghui is a grown man after all, and his face burned with Tang Min's words, "I, I didn't think so."

He just... couldn't make an effort.

The coolie doesn’t want to do it, but he doesn’t have the ability to do it easily.

Tang Min was too lazy to answer him. His tone sounded light but firm, "Anyway, Jingchuan and I will not be able to provide you with any help in the future. Jingchuan and you are brothers, and he will respect you, but, absolutely not Maybe I can support you."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Jingqi and Gu Jingxiu, "Jingqi, Jingxiu, can you do it?"

Gu Jingqi shook his head hastily, "Of course not. I have the obligation to provide for my parents in their old age, but I have no obligation to support my eldest brother, unless he has difficulty moving and cannot work."

Gu Jinghui blushed angrily and said, "Jing Qi, why are you talking? You are cursing me!"

Gu Jingqi showed no fear at all, "What I'm saying is the truth. If my eldest brother doesn't have the basic ability to take care of himself, I, as the younger brother, will definitely take care of it. But the fact is, you have hands and feet, a wife and children, so let It’s totally unjustifiable to be raised by others!”

Gu Jingxiu also boldly stated, "Me too. I used to work the most and talk the least at home, because girls in the countryside lived like that. Since I moved to the city, I found that no matter whether you are a man or a woman, as long as you work hard, you can succeed. Everyone can make money and get ahead, it doesn’t mean that girls are just exchanging gifts for the family.”

It was the first time that Gu Jinghui heard Gu Jingxiu speak like this. He was angered by Gu Jingxiu's last words, "You girl, what do you mean? You won't need a bride price when you get married in the future. Do you want to pay the bride price instead?"

This is not a question of money at all, this is a rule passed down from our ancestors.

How can you get married without a bride price?

Gu Jingxiu retorted, "I'm not a commodity."

In the past, their family was completely emptied of money because of the huge betrothal gifts given to their eldest brother and second brother.

Although his parents didn't talk about it, in private, they often sighed and complained that his in-laws were too cruel and demanded so much money.

She didn't want to live like that in the future.

Gu Jinghui rolled his eyes at Gu Jingxiu, as if he was looking at an idiot, "Jingxiu, let me tell you, do you know that a girl's family must ask for a betrothal gift when marrying someone? This is not a matter of money. If you don't want a betrothal gift, they will not cherish you after you marry. "

Gu Jingxiu said he didn't quite understand what his elder brother meant.

What does it have to do with the betrothal gift if you don’t cherish it?
Gu Jinghui spoke earnestly, "Look, your sister-in-law asked for a colorful gift of 2000 yuan when she married me, and she offered it like a Bodhisattva in our house. Why? Aren't we afraid that she will run away and the gift will be wasted?"

Wang Ying, "..." It turns out that Gu Jinghui just cares about money!

Heartbroken!
Everyone, "..."

Jin Zhengtai, who was sitting aside, rolled his eyes after hearing Gu Jinghui's words.

How could he not cherish his wife?
Regardless of whether you need a betrothal gift or not, you must take it home as a treasure.

Of course, it is impossible for him to marry a wife without giving her a bride price.

Three media and six hires are absolutely unambiguous.Gu Jingxiu felt that her eldest brother was unreasonable.

"Brother, I won't tell you."

But this time, Gu Decheng and Wang Guixiang stood against Gu Jinghui.

When a girl's family marries someone, she should still give some betrothal gifts.

As Gu Jinghui said, if you don't need a betrothal gift, others won't appreciate it if you marry.

Too easy to get.

"Jingchuan, Xiaomin, what do you think?" Gu Decheng looked at Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min.

They felt that this girl Jingxiu’s ideas were dangerous.

It needs to be properly corrected and trained.

Gu Jingchuan looked at Jin Zhengtai and said calmly, "Dad, Mom, my elder brother is actually right about this matter. There are still necessary procedures."

"Yes." Tang Min looked at Gu Jingxiu, "Jingxiu, you are still young and don't understand. Of course, with the betrothal gift comes the dowry. It's not like in our hometown, where the daughter is exchanged for a sum of money to give the son a wife, but he never I will consider my daughter’s future life.”

The mentality of rural people is that married daughters throw away water.

In the future, if you don't need your daughter to support you when you get old, it will be equivalent to a direct buyout with a betrothal gift.

This is why they tried every possible means to have a son.

But Tang Min feels that they should try to get the elderly to change such outdated concepts, which is a very important factor in achieving gender equality.

"You're right. We rural people are all like this. We only want to rely on our sons, but our daughters are all in trouble. In the end, it's all in vain. Now I understand it clearly. Sons and daughters should be treated the same, so that they can be relied on in the future. .”

Gu Jingxiu was so moved that she burst into tears.

After being a little transparent in the family for so many years, her father finally treated her as a member of the family.

She said happily, "Mom and Dad, in a few years, when Jing Qi and I have made money, you can come and live in the city."

"What about us?" Gu Jinghui asked eagerly.

Gu Jingxiu said in an indifferent tone, "Brother, where do you live, what does it have to do with us?"

Gu Jingqi nodded, "Yes, brother, as long as you can buy a house in the city and survive, then you can come too."

"I'm going to marry a city wife in the future, but they won't let you live here."

Gu Jingqi gave Gu Jinghui a vaccination in advance, and then looked at them and asked, "If my second brother and second sister-in-law do nothing all day long, live in your house, and rely on you to support me, do you and my sister-in-law agree?"

Gu Jinghui and Wang Ying, "..."

Gu Jingqi muttered, "In my hometown before we were separated, you relied on your parents to support you, but my sister-in-law looked down on me and my sister."

Gu Jinghui and Wang Ying were extremely embarrassed, ashamed and angry.

Ke Ren is telling the truth.

They couldn't refute even if they wanted to.

"Yingzi, look at the good things you did in the past." Gu Jinghui scolded Wang Ying, and then explained with a smile, "Your sister-in-law and I are not educated, so what do you care about."

Gu Jingqi retorted righteously, "This is not a question of culture. My parents are also uneducated. Aren't they still diligent in running the house and supporting a few of us?"
