Chapter 446
"How come there are bank notes and food?" Su Xiangrui took two steps forward, looked at the dowry list again, and said, "It's not written on it! Did you make a mistake?"

Lin Mei knew that she didn't know many characters, so she didn't intervene. She just said, "Is there a character that you don't know, and you read it wrong, let Xiao Ning have a look."

Su Xiangrui felt a little wronged by Lin Mei's words. He happened to know both the words food and bank notes, so how could he misunderstand them.

But although he thought so in his heart, he didn't express it like this in his behavior, and directly gave the dowry list to Suning.

"Look, is there something missing?"

Suning took it and read it from top to bottom.

Li Zongting's marriage to his younger sister is a big deal, and there are many good things.

It's just that although those expensive porcelains are not attractive to them, they are definitely not worth thousands of taels as Su Xiangrui estimated.

At least 5000 taels went up.

But also normal.

There is only such a legitimate son in the Li family, and Mrs. Li has the final say on everything in the family, so she naturally prepared her son's dowry in a decent manner.

These betrothal gifts should be prepared for the Shi family in Nanyang. There are many famous paintings and even a few rare copies in them. Good things like this can no longer be measured in gold and silver.

However, Suning was not disgusted with this, nor did he tell his family members.

"I think those banknotes and food should have been prepared by Li Zongting separately. They were not included in the dowry list. They should be given to my younger sister alone by him."

Lin Mei said in surprise: "I can't tell! Li Zongting is so indifferent, how can he be so intentional?"

Suning didn't expose it, only those were Li Zongting's real betrothal gifts.

But no matter what, Li Zongting solved the problem of the younger sister's dowry.

Su Ning said: "Tomorrow, I will ask my husband to take me and my younger sister to the county to buy some jewelry."

Lin Mei said worriedly: "The world is bad now, why are you still going to the county? It takes two days to drive here and there."

Su Ning spoke impulsively, but was interrupted by Lin Mei, and he hesitated a bit, so he said, "Then go to the county! The gold shop in the town, the jewelry produced is not good-looking, and Li Zongting has already issued a silver ticket. We always have to buy it." Run some errands and make the little sister's dowry jewelry more beautiful."

Lin Mei didn't stop this time.

It's just that the little girl said a little dumbfounded: "You don't need it! These things will be kept at home for your use."

Su Xiangrui scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about! Is there any decent family who would withhold the bride price and refuse to give the dowry? If you make such a fuss, what should you do when you go to your husband's house? Don't talk such nonsense."

Su Ning explained with a chuckle: "That's right! And Li Zongting secretly stuffed the 3000 taels here, not for us, but for your dowry."

The little girl was a little skeptical and said, "Is he going to be so good?"

Suning poked the little girl's forehead and said, "Won't your conscience ache when you say this? Don't talk about our Niujiao Village, you go to Dalun Town to find out which man married a wife with such a generous dowry .”

Lin Mei agreed, "Yes! Your sister is right, you should cherish it and live a good life."

Looking at the betrothal gifts that filled the yard, the little girl felt a little weird in her heart. After the Su Tai brothers came back and conveyed Li Zongting's words, the little girl was completely silent.

Just as Su Ning guessed, the 3000 taels of silver note was Li Zongting's dowry for the younger sister, and the five loads of food was prepared by Li Zongting for the Su family alone. After all, it's a natural disaster now!
