"I wonder how I can give my in-laws a dowry?"

Although she already knew it was five taels of silver, Ms. Song still asked.

"Hmm... My Xiaoxue is too different in age from her elder brother, so she has been pampered by our family since she was a child. Although we are farmers, Xiaoxue is also our treasure. As long as you treat her well, our family will give you five taels as a dowry. silver!"

Although Bai Lizheng was angry, he would not give less.

Not only that, he would also secretly give his daughter three taels of personal money.

Therefore, add the five taels on the bright side.

It should be a dowry of eight taels.

There was no objection from the Bai family to this.

Passed unanimously.

This specification, let alone the village.

Even if you put it in a town, it would be considered above average.

"This is necessary. I, Mrs. Song, may not be too kind, but none of my neighbors are against me. Just ask Sister Zou. Xiaoxue will definitely treat her well when she marries into my family. Don't worry, my family Xiaotian is also a filial and sensible person. He has never quarreled with anyone since he was a child. After studying, he has developed a very good temper. Sometimes I worry that he will be bullied by others. How can he be as rude as those men who beat their wives. "

Mrs. Song praised her son as she spoke.

"But I have to explain one thing first. My He family does not have the custom of giving money. Of course, don't worry. It's not that there is no betrothal gift. You probably don't know that our ancestors of the He family once had a noble man, so we are very taboo about the smell of copper. Xiaoxue, come here. This bracelet is a family heirloom from my aunt. My mother brought it to me before I got married. Now it’s given to you as a bride price. I hope you won’t dislike it. If you don’t like tacky things like gold. , when you get married, my aunt will take you to buy a jade bracelet to wear, how about it?"

Mrs. Song took Bai Ruixue's hand, opened the jewelry box, took out the gold-wrapped iron bracelet, and put it directly on her wrist.

It was the right size, like it was made just for her.

"Look, these little hands are so tender. No wonder my aunt liked your tightness the first time she saw you. We are destined. When my aunt first wore this bracelet, it was the same as yours. The size is neither too big nor too small. You are the one destined by God. Where is my daughter-in-law?"

Bai Ruixue's face turned red from the praise.

She looked at the gold bracelet on her wrist and was so happy.

So heavy.

It takes at least ten taels of silver to buy it.

I was given such an expensive bracelet, so the betrothal gifts and the like are no longer important.

"Auntie, I like this bracelet." Xiaoxue held Mrs. Song's hand and said coquettishly.

"As long as you like it. Auntie thought you would be unhappy. I will only give this bracelet to Xiaotian's wife. You are the daughter-in-law recognized by my He family. Auntie is waiting for you to get married soon."

Mrs. Song stroked Bai Ruixue's fingers.

Slippery.

At first glance, it looks like he hasn’t done much work.

But thinking that she could still embroider and be able to support her family in the future, the unhappiness in her heart disappeared.

Anyway, there is still that girl Jiaoer.

Just let her do the work.

Don't think that by becoming her son's concubine, you can fly up a branch and become a phoenix.

What needs to be done must be done.

Song's eyes gleamed.

Bai Ruixue didn't notice.

Her attention was entirely on the bracelet.

This is a gold bracelet, a heavy gold bracelet.

It's not just her.

Bai Lizheng's daughter-in-law, Bai Zhao, was also looking at the bracelet.

His eyes were extremely fiery.

She has lived for most of her life and has never worn any silver bracelets, let alone gold bracelets. The only jewelry she has is the gilt silver hairpin on her head, which her mother-in-law left to her before she died.

Worthless.

I saw that my daughter’s future husband’s family valued her so much.

Mrs. Bai Zhao couldn't even close her mouth with laughter.

The talkative women in the village always muttered behind her back, saying that her family Xiaoxue couldn't get married, saying that she was an old girl and her heart was as high as the sky, so she kept holding back her anger.

When her daughter gets married, she will be proud of herself.

"Hey, this gold bracelet is really big. It must cost a lot of silver. As expected of Sister Song, you are really generous and fair. Look, I'm not trying to limit you. I'm giving you the best." I’ll leave the rest of my life to your Xiaoxue. From now on, your Xiaoxue will just be waiting to enjoy the blessings.”

Zou Huahua looked at the gold bracelet and her mouth was watering.

If she had known that Mrs. Song was so generous, she would have asked Bai Lizheng for more matchmaker fees. Alas, it was a pity that her family did not have a girl to be married. Otherwise, it would have been better to leave Xiaotian to her family.

Doesn't that gold bracelet belong to their family?

The appearance of the gold bracelet left Bai Lizheng, who was quite critical, speechless.

"One more thing, my Xiaotian is planning to take a test next year, so I think the date of getting married should be as soon as possible without delaying Xiaotian's scientific examination. What do you think? If there is no problem, let's set it at 20."

Song's words silenced everyone present.

"What? Twenty, there are only a few days left, no, no, it's too urgent. People who don't know think we are afraid that our daughter won't be able to get married."

Bai Lizheng shook his head repeatedly.

"Yes, 20 is too urgent. Even if you are in a hurry, you can't do 20. Otherwise, it would be the end of June or the beginning of July, right?"

Bai Zhao also disagreed.

"My mother-in-law, we will be a family soon. What can be more important than Xiaotian's science exam? The county exam starts in February, followed by the government exam in April, and the college exam. If they pass the exam together, then Xiaotian will You are a scholar. If you delay getting married until July or August, aren't you delaying Xiaotian? You should get married early so that he can calm down and study hard and prepare for the exam. If you marry earlier, Xiaotian may be successful on the day the scholar results are released. Xiaoxue is here for another double happiness."

Of course, the wedding day cannot be postponed until the end of June.

Jiao'er's belly can't bear it.

After Mrs. Song finished speaking, she blinked at Zou Huahua.

Zou Huahua reacted immediately.

"Yes, no matter how important it is, Xiaotian's scientific examination is not as important. If she is admitted as a scholar in one fell swoop, then Xiaoxue will be a scholar's wife. Isn't this unique in the village? From now on, let alone all directions, she will be in the town. Come on, when people see you, they have to call you Master Bai, that's a scholar! Bai Lizheng, it would be so honorable for you to have a scholar son-in-law. It's a pity that I don't have a girl at home, otherwise I would even want to kidnap Xiaotian to my house Now that you are a son-in-law, look at it, how can you extrapolate such a good blessing? Sister Song is so sincere. All the family heirlooms have been given to Xiaoxue before they got married. You are not afraid of being caught by others after Xiaotian is admitted as a scholar. Son-in-law! Then your talented son-in-law will be gone..."

I have to say that no one can match the matchmaker's mouth.

Say a few words.

Everyone in the Bai family had worries on their faces.

Zou Huahua added another fire.

She made Xiaotianying look like many people were robbing it.

Less than half an hour.

The Bai family compromised.

The wedding day is scheduled for June 20th.

At noon, the three of them stayed at Bai's house for dinner.

Everyone had a smile on their faces, and He Tian was no exception.

What he was happy about was not that he was going to marry Bai Ruixue, but that he would be able to sleep openly with Jiao'er in his arms soon.
