Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 368 Getting better and better
When talking about this incident, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao became three inches shorter.
If this woman wants to live a good life in her husband's family, she must bring enough dowry to be able to stand tall when she comes.
But when Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao married into the Shen family, their respective families were not very good. After all, in those days, some families didn't even have rice to cook. It was good that the two of them could bring some in.
But those things are missing after all.
Seeing that the two daughters-in-law were silent, Yao Shu smiled: "What's going on? They all lowered their heads, as if they had made some huge mistake."
Zhao and Qiao still didn't speak. Although they made no mistake, the dowry matter was like a thorn in their hearts. Whenever they mentioned it, they felt ashamed.
After a long silence, Mrs. Zhao said with a wry smile: "Congratulations to my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law has found a good wife for Shen Bei this time. This daughter-in-law is rich, and I think she will bring a lot of gifts. Then the life of the young couple will definitely be better." The better the better.”
Mrs. Qiao on the side also nodded and said: "Yes, the life of this young couple is getting better, and you can worry less. It's all my fault that my mother-in-law's family has failed to live up to expectations, and my mother-in-law has suffered all these years."
Zhao nodded and continued to agree: "Shen Bei's life will be better from now on, and I can help you. Then everyone's life will be better and better."
"Yes, speaking of it, Shen Bei is really lucky. His wife not only has a good family background, but also has a better personality. She is filial to her mother-in-law. She will be really lucky in the future!"
"Mother-in-law, when your daughter-in-law comes in from now on, you have to teach her the rules. Don't let her think you are a bully. I'll get you Qiao when the time comes!"
Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao congratulated Yao Shu with each other. They seemed quite sincere, but Yao Shu knew that these two people were resentful in their hearts.
She looked at the two people and said seriously: "What are the rules and regulations? When you enter the door in the future, we are all a family. It is true to treat others with sincerity."
Mrs. Zhao smiled awkwardly: "Yes, mother-in-law is right, we talk too much."
Mrs. Qiao also nodded. She could feel that Yao Shu was a little unhappy.
Yao Shu looked at the sudden change in the expressions of these two people and continued: "Do you think you were wronged by marrying me in?"
Ms. Zhao was slightly startled, not understanding why Yao Shu said that. For a moment, she didn't just think of what to say.
Ms. Qiao wanted to say it, but she was no better than Ms. Zhao. After hesitating for a long time, she also stopped talking.
Looking at the two people who were hesitant to speak, Yao Shu said helplessly: "You don't have to be afraid. I don't mean to blame you. Just say it boldly."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao smiled awkwardly and said, "Mother-in-law, you really upset me. When we first got married, my mother-in-law was very good to us, and we didn't feel wronged."
Mrs. Qiao nodded and agreed: "Yes, my mother-in-law always thinks of us no matter what good things she does these years. It's too late for us to be happy, so how can we feel wronged?"
What Zhao and Qiao said were true. They had never suffered any grievances in recent years, especially in Yao Shu.
They were indeed jealous of Shen Bei's bride price, but if they were wronged, they really didn't have it.
Yao Shu is so transparent, how could she not understand what these two people are thinking?
"Mother-in-law, we really didn't bring much dowry when we got married." Ms. Zhao knew that her mother-in-law was knocking them, so she carefully explained: "But it wasn't that we didn't bring it on purpose. It was because the family was in difficulty at that time. I can’t get much out of it.”
Mrs. Qiao nodded in agreement: "That's right! Yes, mother-in-law."
Lest Yao Shu would be angry, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao explained at the side.
Seeing the cautious look of these two people, Yao Shu sighed helplessly and said with a smile: "You two should stop talking. Who told you this?"
After hearing this, Ms. Zhao looked at Yao Shu with a full face and asked, "Don't you want to tell us about the dowry?"
"Of course not. How many years have you two been married? Do I have to tell you this?" Yao Shu said, sighing, and said with regret: "You two married into the Shen family, and you can't live without it." "You are less miserable, my family was poor before and I couldn't afford a decent betrothal gift, let alone an embarrassing wedding banquet, so I'm really wronging you by welcoming you here in such a hasty way."
When Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao heard this, years of grievances flooded into their hearts. They couldn't help but lower their heads and quietly wiped the tears from their eyes.
Seeing them like this, Yao Shu continued: "Now our life is getting better. As a mother-in-law, I can't treat one favorably. Today, I will make up for the betrothal gifts you deserve."
With that said, Yao Shu took out two boxes. She gave the two boxes to Mrs. Zhao and Ms. Qiao respectively, and then said, "This is for you two. You two keep it."
Zhao and Qiao looked at each other and then took the box from Yao Shu. When they saw the contents in the box, their eyes widened.
The first person to react was Ms. Zhao. She almost quickly put the thing back in front of Yao Shu, hurriedly waving her hands and saying, "No, no, this thing is too valuable, I can't have it!"
At this time, Ms. Qiao also reflected. Like Ms. Zhao, she pushed the box over: "Mother-in-law, you'd better take these back. They're really too valuable!"
The things Yao Shu gave to Zhao and Qiao were not much less than what she gave to Shen Ru, and in order to take out these things, Yao Shu almost used up all the good things in her hands.
But she didn't have any complaints in her heart. She originally wanted to give these things to Qiao and Zhao.
Although these two people usually have a lot of friction, there is no problem with their character.
And after so many years, she has indeed owed these two people.
It’s just that Mrs. Zhao and Ms. Qiao didn’t intend to ask for these, because there were too many and they didn’t dare to accept them!
Yao Shu looked at the two people's refusals and said seriously: "What are you doing? Since I gave it to you, then accept it!"
Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qiao shook their heads in unison, and then Mrs. Qiao said seriously: "Mother-in-law, it's not that we don't accept it, it's that there are too many of them. If you give these to us, what will you do?"
"Yes." Mrs. Qiao on the side nodded. Although she was jealous, it did not mean that she wanted to spend all her mother-in-law's money. They were daughters-in-law, not robbers. "Mother-in-law, please keep it. Come on, we don’t want it.”
Lest Yao Shu wouldn't accept it, Mrs. Zhao said again: "Mother-in-law, if you really want to give, then give less. You'd better take these back!"
