Rebirth of Fortune Talisman

Chapter 1159 I'm a Scumbag
"What the hell!"

Mrs. Dong curled her lips: "At the beginning, it was new for a few days, but later on, the family thought she was not good. Her mother-in-law was talking outside all day, saying that her son was capable, and she didn't spend a penny to get it back. A daughter-in-law, she also said that the daughter-in-law is a bitch, and she will follow the man if she doesn't want anything, she must be a bitch, and her sister-in-law also said to others that there must be something wrong with her sister-in-law, or there is something unclear, or else , why don’t you ask for any bride price? Whoever raises such a big girl is called married if she doesn’t want anything. There must be something unspeakable. If it's tattered, if her brother is being cheated or something, that granddaughter of my family, don't mention how aggrieved she is."

"How can this be?"

Yu Fang's eyes widened when she heard this, she couldn't believe there were such people in the world.

"Why not?" Mrs. Dong turned her head to look at Yu Fang: "Ni'er, what do you think of marriage as a play house? We women are not considered as individuals when we get married. After that, we have to wait and see." Uncle Hou, sister-in-law, and parents-in-law also have to take care of the family’s food and drink, and they are never free all year round. Let’s say that when they were in the production team a few years ago, men and women worked in the fields with the same strength, but they can wait for harvest. After finishing work, a woman still has to cook, clean up the housework, take care of the children, make clothes and shoes for the children, which is not a woman's contribution, this woman, this life is really hard."

Yu Fang lowered her head, not knowing what was going on in her mind.

Mrs. Dong sighed again: "Our family is not bad, and your grandma and I are not that kind of wicked mother-in-law. Even so, your mother and the others had an easy life in the early years? There are many things going on inside, They raised such a big girl with yellow flowers and gave it to someone else, how can I do without a dowry?"

Yu Fang was silent.

Mrs. Dong was a shrewd person. Shen Linxian brought Yu Fang over to listen to her, and she knew what Shen Linxian was up to. If she could persuade her, she still had to persuade her.

"Ni'er, no one knows what kind of person their man is, and whether he will change his mind in the future. Of course, when we first get married, we should have more guarantees. In ancient times, dowry was required, and the dowry was given by the mother's family. The in-law's life is better, today, I will also be a big one, and I will explain to you why there is such a rule."

Yu Fang also felt that what Mrs. Dong said made sense. She wanted to hear more from these old people, so she quickly smiled and said, "Speak, I'll listen."

Mrs. Dong smiled: "At first I didn't know why, but I was about to live to the end of my life, so I wanted to understand this truth. Of course, this was just my own thinking, right? Just listen to it."

Yu Fang smiled and said, "You have a lot of old experiences, and we juniors can benefit a lot when you explain the truth that you have figured out for yourself."

Mrs. Dong nodded in satisfaction. She likes the juniors of the Yu family very much. No matter what, she knows how to be polite: "I often gossip with your grandma. Your grandma once said that the more you give, the more you will be rewarded." Reluctant, I just thought about it, this requires a bride price, it means that the man is reluctant to divorce his wife. In ancient times, it was different from ours. Divorce after less than one place. In ancient times, the wife did something wrong, and the man could divorce. Losing you, sometimes I will give you a divorce letter for no reason. Think about it, if the man takes his wife home without giving anything, he must not know how to cherish it. When you want to divorce, you will When did he divorce, but if he gave a betrothal gift, he should not feel sorry for those betrothal gifts when he divorced his wife, you must know that in ancient times, the dowry belonged to the woman, even if she divorced, the dowry could be taken away by her."

Yu Fang was shocked when she heard this, and many things became clear.

"There is more." Mrs. Dong continued: "An old saying is good, the recruiter is a wife and a concubine, Nier, don't think that this is an old antique, it makes sense wherever you put it. The wife is the one who has received the dowry. Giving the dowry means that the man respects you, thinks highly of you, and treats marriage as an important thing in life. This is respect for the woman and the family of the hostess. You just follow them away, that's a concubine, they will look down on you, think you are not self-respecting, just take a step back, now is a new society, it stands to reason that there should be no such talk, but , That's it, if a man doesn't give you a penny, it means he doesn't respect him enough, and he has the mentality of taking advantage of the petty advantage. This kind of person is too shrewd to be a good match."

"Ah!" Mrs. Dong sighed, "My eldest granddaughter is now regretful. She even cried to me earlier, saying that she regretted not listening to me. Now she tells others that she wants to divorce, but she is pregnant again. Physically, she can't bear to be a child, but if she lives like this, when will she be tall."

"That's right, young people nowadays can't understand us old people." Shen Linxian also sighed: "I've spent my whole life worrying about my children and grandchildren, and when I get old, I'll end up being blamed by others. Whenever we talk, people will say old things, But the things that have been handed down by the older generation for so many years, there is no reason at all, and they are not all feudal dross."

Yu Fang's face turned red when she said this.

Seeing that Mrs. Dong was sleepy, Shen Linxian pulled Yu Fang up and said with a smile to Mrs. Dong: "Old sister, you rest first, and let your kid get you some medicine and drink it. If it's not good, you Call Xiaofang again and ask her to adjust the prescription for you, and if you see it better, tell her and change some medicine."

"Okay." Mrs. Dong nodded with a smile.

Only then did Shen Linxian take Yu Fang to leave.

After returning home, Shen Linxian sat down on the sofa and asked Yu Fang, "What do you think?"

Yu Fang was silent for a while before saying: "I, I will tell Xie Changqing when I go back, and ask him to prepare a bride price. If he doesn't agree, I'll ask him what my grandma said, and ask him if he wants to learn everything from abroad."

"Okay." Shen Linxian smiled: "You discuss it with him first to see what he means."

At this time, Liuzhi came in, and when Yu Fang changed her mind, she smiled: "You silly girl, you have broken our hearts, and you don't want to think about that Xie Changqing who said that the family's life is hard and you don't give a bride price. Xu's conditions are not good, but he has been working for several years, so if he doesn't have any savings, even if his family is not allowed to get a bride price, what about him? If he doesn't have money on hand, our family doesn't ask for much, but we have to have it .”

Yu Fang's mind is now full of the words that the recruiter is a wife and a concubine.

It's all the truths that Mrs. Dong said. She thought about what Mrs. Dong said about not giving a dowry, which meant that the man didn't respect you enough and meant to belittle you. Yu Fang was shocked for a while.

She carefully recalled the process of getting acquainted with Xie Changqing, as well as Xie Changqing's usual behavior. Many things that she couldn't understand before now became clear.
