Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 616 Returning the Dowry

Mrs. Li and grandma quarreled again, accusing each other of their faults, and they were about to fight again.

Jiang Fengyi was stunned for a while, and only now did he realize that the Sun family was not clean in this matter... Both families had dirty thoughts, which led to a mess of dirty things.

He rubbed the center of his eyebrows a little irritably, and said in a calm voice: "The case is closed, and your housework is not under the jurisdiction of the government, please leave first!"

After finishing speaking, he left with a big stride.

Old Madam Li became more and more complacent, put her hands on her hips, raised her eyebrows and said: "See, crazy woman, the people in the government are not willing to take care of this mess, let me see who else will support you!"

Grandmother naturally wouldn't be afraid of her, she straightened her back and said sharply: "I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore, just return my daughter's dowry! Irrelevant!"

The two families have completely torn their faces apart, and Grandma's intention is to break off the marriage relationship with the Li family.

Mrs. Sun is dead and has no children. According to the law, her natal family can ask for the dowry back, but Mrs. Li couldn't agree, she let out a "bah" and cursed again, "How shameless are you? Are you ashamed to ask for a dowry?! That sick child in your family eats soup and medicine as a meal, and her dowry has already been used up. Our family has paid a lot of money for medical consultations. I still want to ask you for compensation Woolen cloth!"

Grandma laughed angrily, and said disdainfully: "Who is shameless? You only said that your family gave a gift of 20 taels of silver back then, why didn't you say how rich our Sun family's dowry is?! I brought the dowry list with you. It's on me, do you want me to read it to you guys?

Now that Yirou has passed away and has no children under her knees, it is only natural for our natal family to return her dowry. If you don't give it back, then we will see you in court! "

This statement is true, the law clearly stipulates that the husband’s family cannot use and dispose of the woman’s dowry without authorization. After a married woman dies, the dowry should be inherited by the children she gave birth to;Therefore, if the husband's family insists on not returning the money, the mother's family can report it to the government.

When mentioning the court, Mrs. Li felt a little lacking in confidence. She had only been to court once in her life, and it almost killed her. Who knows if she will come back alive after going in this time.

She poked old man Li with her arm, and said in a low voice, "Old man, think of a way."

Old man Li's attitude has always been to turn big things into small ones. He doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. If it gets to the county, the situation is out of his control. If it gets to Mr. Zhao's ears, it will be more harm than good.What's more, my family is really unreasonable, even if I go to court, the dowry that should be refunded will still have to be refunded to others.

After weighing the pros and cons, Old Man Li had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree to his grandma's request.

Prior to this, Mrs. Sun's dowry had been held in her own hands, and when she became seriously ill, Mrs. Li took Mrs. Song to evacuate all her dowry, including gold and silver jewellery, furniture and utensils, cloth and fur, etc. .

Now, part of the gold and silver has been spent, and the cloth has been made into new clothes, so how can it be returned intact?
Grandmother didn't care about this, she took out a long dowry list from her bosom, cleared her throat, and read it slowly.
