Dressed Like a Cute Little Lucky Bag Chapter 269

Chapter 269 Bride Price and Dowry 3

  After the marriage was finalized, Ma Xiu Lian and Chen Dazhu did not stay for dinner, but went home to tell their family about the dowry and bride price.

  Upon hearing such high gifts and dowries, the sons and daughters-in-law of the Chen family were all shocked, especially the daughters-in-law, who felt more or less jealous.

  Zhao Mei was an honest and obedient girl, and apart from a little envy, she had no other thoughts in her mind.

  Although Zhou Zhaodi was also a little jealous, she was able to keep things positive.

  After all, she brought a bicycle as a dowry!

  And this fifth brother's wife's family is really generous. When she marries, I have to try my best to win her over.

  "Eighty dollars? And cloth, cigarettes, alcohol, and candy?"

  Li Chunhua was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and shouted sharply and loudly.

  That’s a full eighty dollars!

  She had never had so much money in her pocket in her life!

  Ma Xiulian glared at her and shouted, "Why are you yelling at me?"

  Li Chunhua closed her mouth in grievance, feeling sour and bitter in her heart.

  Her original betrothal gift was only fifty yuan, which the Chen family thought was too expensive. Now, they gave thirty yuan more to the fifth wife!

  In addition to cloth, cigarettes, alcohol, and candy, the betrothal gift to the Liu family must be at least one hundred yuan.

  The parents-in-law are too partial!

  Ma Xiulian saw through her thoughts at a glance and was speechless.

  This idiot didn't even think about the fact that when she got married, she didn't even bring bed cotton with her. The clothes she wore at the wedding were all bought for her by the Chen family.

  The dowry given by the Liu family was a bicycle and other dowry.

  But this daughter-in-law was so stupid that she was beyond help. Ma Xiu Lian was too lazy to waste her time trying to reason with her and just let her think whatever she wanted.

  So lying in bed at night, Li Chunhua tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, feeling suffocated. She suddenly sat up from the bed and pushed Chen Jianye hard: "Don't sleep!"

  "What are you doing so late at night?!" Chen Jianye smacked his lips impatiently. He had fallen asleep.

  Li Chunhua's eyes were red, and she complained with a face full of grievance: "I am making a fuss?! Your mother is too partial! When she married the fifth son, she asked for a dowry of 80 yuan, not to mention the cloth, sugar, cigarettes, and alcohol for the banquet! But when we got married, my parents were reluctant to give us even 50 yuan!"

  And with so much money, she could get 20 or 30 yuan when the family is divided!

  Now, it's all spent on Lao Wu!

  The more Li Chunhua thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more she felt wronged: "Look at our Jinbao and Xiaobao, they don't even have anything good to eat, your mother spent all the money on Lao Wu and that dead girl!"

  Chen Jianye didn't feel anything at first, but now after hearing what she said, he felt a little uncomfortable.

  He wasn't really stupid, so he could naturally notice that his parents hadn't paid as much attention to him as before in recent years, and didn't like his two sons very much.

  Who made him not work as well as his eldest and second brothers, and not earn as much as his fourth and fifth brothers?

  What's more, when the fifth child came back this time, he gave his parents two hundred yuan, which was equivalent to the betrothal money he gave.

  He was not shameless enough to covet the money for his brother to marry a wife, so he frowned and scolded him: "It's OK, no one like you as a daughter-in-law should take care of this matter! Go to bed quickly, you have to get up early to work tomorrow."

  Having said that, he turned over and continued to sleep.

  Li Chunhua felt frustrated and uncomfortable watching him like this, so she kicked him in the back with her foot: "You spend all day eating and sleeping, and you don't even think about taking care of your two sons!"

  In response to her, she heard Chen Jianye's deafening snoring.
