Chapter 4 Dowry
Given how much my mother loves my eldest sister, the change in marriage definitely cannot be due to my eldest sister.
If it's not the eldest sister's reason, then it's her reason.
She is really her biological mother. Not only did she arrange a marriage in her name, she also asked the Qin family for such a huge amount of betrothal gifts, without caring whether she would live or die after marrying into the family.
The Qin family could also agree to such a situation. It must be said that no matter what Qin Yang's personality was, the Qin family was indeed kind. After all, women whose engagements were broken off had a hard time in this era.
This is a good idea from the Qin family. Lin Chuxia will take note of it.
Hiding the emotions in her eyes, Lin Chuxia said calmly, "I don't want to mention it. Didn't my elder sister keep saying that the Qin family is good? I'm afraid that my elder sister was really confused and asked mom to go for a marriage exchange. It's not too late to regret it now. If she has to wait until she gets married, there will be nothing she can do."
"I won't regret it," Lin Jiayi retorted without thinking.
"Why is the eldest sister thinking about the Qin family's betrothal gift? Or do you think that the Li family is too poor to give a betrothal gift? If it's my opinion, mom is the same. The Li family is so poor that they have to ask for more betrothal gifts. Only when they get them can they own the betrothal gifts. Mom was quite clear when discussing my marriage with the Li family, why did she get confused when it came to the eldest sister? Eighty yuan, Li Cuihua in our village got married for more than eighty yuan, right?"
Lin Jiayi's face flushed red. Li Cuihua was the silly girl at the head of their village. How could this damn girl compare her with that silly Li Cuihua?
Besides, my mother said that the Li family is so poor, if they really want a betrothal gift of 300 yuan, wouldn't that be handing the property to my husband's family?
"All right, shut up," Lin's mother glared at Lin Chuxia fiercely, "You don't do your work all day long, just staring at these little things, do you really think I raised you for nothing? Don't be so ungrateful, your elder sister gave you such a good marriage, you should be grateful, if nothing else, the dowry should be given to your elder sister, the Qin family is well-off, and you are indispensable."
Lin's mother never expected that her usually obedient little daughter would become rebellious.
Lin Chuxia nodded, "I understand, mom. I won't argue with my eldest sister about the dowry. After all, the marriages were all chosen by my eldest sister. Even if I go there empty-handed, I will tell the truth when I get to the Qin family. I think the Qin family will understand."
Mother Lin was relieved after hearing the first half of the sentence. She felt that her little daughter had no other advantages except that she was obedient. The second half of the sentence almost made her breathless.
"What are you talking about? I told you to stop talking about the marriage exchange. Are you stuffing your ears with donkey hair?"
"Mom, look at what you said. Others may not know about this, but who among our three families doesn't know? We can pretend that nothing happened, but can the Li and Qin families?"
"You can't just tell the truth," Lin's mother blurted out what was really on her mind when she got excited.
"What do you mean, mom? If the Qin family asks me about it, I can't pretend to be dumb, right? Are you saying that I was spoiled since I was a child and had to marry Qin Yang, and that my elder sister gave in to me, the younger sister, so I got married. Or are you saying that I am better than my elder sister in every way and I am a good worker, so I got a good deal by marrying Qin Yang?"
Lin Chuxia looked like she was willing to negotiate, and her mother blushed when she asked her questions.
I have to say that the youngest daughter really understands her. Those words were what she said to the Li and Qin families.
Just say these words to one party only, and never let the other party hear them.
"Mom, you have to think about it. If I marry like this, I won't even have a dowry. Do I look like a spoiled child? If it's the latter, you have to make sure the Qin family doesn't tell anyone. If the Li family hears about it, how will they view my eldest sister? If you don't allow us to mention it at home, then we won't mention it. The Qin and Li families have their mouths on us."
Mother Lin was a little embarrassed and annoyed, with a hint of hostility on her face, "Just keep your mouth shut, the adults don't need you to make irresponsible remarks about their work."
Lin Jiayi also snorted in anger and put the things in the net bag into the cabinet. She pointed at Lin Chuxia and said, "These are all mine. My mother bought them for me. Don't even think about taking them."
Lin Chuxia didn't even raise her head, "Don't worry, I'm not the type who would want to take something for myself just because I see it." She would fight for what she wanted.
Lin Jiayi's face darkened again, thinking of the fabrics she had seen when she entered the house just now. This bitch always looked so nonchalant. Let's see if she can still be so rampant after marrying into the Qin family.
Lin Chuxia's expectation was good. In the afternoon, Lin's mother went out again. In the evening, she came back with something and threw it directly in front of her when she entered the house.
"These are the best ones from the supply and marketing cooperative that I have carefully selected. Don't accuse me of being biased. I don't know what I am dissatisfied with after finding such a marriage. Go out and ask around. Who wouldn't envy you for marrying into the Qin family?"
Lin Chuxia took a look and saw some daily necessities such as washbasins, thermoses, towels, etc. Although they were not as good as Lin Jiayi's, at least they could save face.
Although she had no hope for the Qin family, Lin Chuxia didn't want to start the game in difficult mode if she could make a good impression.
He changed the marriage plan and asked for a large sum of money as a dowry, but in the end the wife he married didn't even have a dowry. Who would feel comfortable with that?
It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Lin Chuxia entered the space while everyone else was asleep.
First, I went to the ancient well and got some spiritual spring water to drink. Then I went to the bathroom to take a bath. While taking a bath, I also added some spiritual spring water.
Ever since she discovered that the spiritual spring water was good for the body, she has been using it these days and found that her body has become much stronger.
Although she died in a car accident in her previous life, her health had already broken down in the last few years. Her waist and knees ached from time to time. She went into menopause just after she turned 40. Her hair fell out in clumps and she had to take a lot of medicine.
When she came back, Lin Chuxia paid more attention to her body. After taking the spiritual spring water for a period of time, her dry and yellow hair became moisturized, her malnourished skin became delicate, and her strength increased a lot.
After taking a shower, Lin Chuxia fried herself a steak.
Originally, she was reluctant to use the things in the villa, but she found that the things in the villa could be recycled and replenished within 24 hours.
After eating and drinking, I left the space.
………………
Before the wedding, the Qin family and the Li family came to pay the betrothal gifts.
In addition to the matchmaker, Qin's eldest brother Qin Han and sister-in-law Zhang Guilan also came.
Qin Han is not short, about 1.75 meters tall, with slightly dark skin, deep eyebrows and eyes, and regular facial features.
Seeing how his brother looks, Qin Yang himself probably wouldn’t be ugly.
Lin Chuxia is no exception, she is a beauty lover, especially in the last few years, she didn't want to suffer when Li Guangyuan cheated on her.
The salaries of his employees who are good-looking are 10% to 20% higher, and none of the assistant drivers around him are ugly.
Appearance is justice. If Qin Yang is good-looking, even if he is a little cold and has a bad temper, she should be able to live with him because he has been away from home for many years and he is good-looking.
