"Even Qing'er Nai admitted frankly this time that the new house built by the Wang family was almost made up of the houses of our old Yang family!"
"The second elder's coffin was full of holes for Meier one after another."
"Every time the two elders say, this is my coffin book, but why don't we make up for it again afterwards?"
"So I'm going to say something unpleasant. Our brothers from the Yang family, especially the third brother, have used their scattered money to subsidize Mei'er several times over the years!"
"So this time she remarries Xu Yuanming. I don't care what other people do. Anyway, our four-bedroom house will not pay a dowry of the same amount!"
"I was so overwhelmed that when I went over to have a wedding banquet, I asked Mrs. Liu to bring two pieces of fabric to add makeup."
"If the second elder and Meier are dissatisfied with the shabby appearance of our fourth bedroom, then fine, we won't show up and won't drink from her at the wedding. That's fine!"
"Fourth brother, you have spoken too harshly!" Blacksmith Luo patted Yang Huaming's shoulder considerately to indicate that he was not too excited.
However, Yang Huaming could not calm down for a long time.
"Brother Blacksmith, I'm really not excited. These are all from my heart!"
When the topic came to the topic of these elderly Yangtou and Tan using the money and items paid by the children and grandchildren of the old Yang family to subsidize Yang Huamei overtly and covertly, it was difficult for Blacksmith Luo to participate in this topic as an outsider.
At this time, Yang Ruoqing spoke again: "Fourth uncle, see through but don't tell the truth. In fact, everyone turns a blind eye to these things,"
"Because what everyone is thinking about is that the two elders are already at this age, and they will not shed their skin in this world after eating longevity grass,"
"Let them go and subsidize if they want, as long as they are healthy and happy physically and mentally."
"Yes, Qing'er, your idea is also what we have always thought. We don't care about that little thing. If Xiaojing goes out, it belongs to your grandparents. We won't ask them to get it back. Let them arrange it as they please!" Yang Huaming also said.
"But," Yang Ruoqing changed her mind, "if my aunt gets married and my grandpa wants everyone to contribute to the dowry, then I'm sorry, but I can reject this request on behalf of the third wife."
"This is moral kidnapping. It doesn't exist at all. We, the third wife, can add to the dowry appropriately, but we will never collect dowry."
To add makeup, you can do whatever you can, it can be a piece of cloth or a pair of shoes.
If your friendship is good and your financial conditions permit, you can also offer money to the other party to keep the bottom of the bargain.
But collecting the dowry is a heavy task. Unless they are the bride's direct parents, there are no other brothers and sisters.
Unless her parents are long gone, the bride will live with her brother and sister-in-law as a daughter in her parents' family. The eldest brother is the father. In addition, it is her first marriage, so her brother-in-law and sister-in-law will have to collect a dowry for her.
For examples of this, you can refer to Cao Bamei and Xiaojie's father, Da Sun.
When Cao Bamei married Yang Yongjin, the dowry came from the Sun family. So after so many years, Cao Bamei never regarded the other brothers and sisters-in-law of the Cao family as her natal family. She only regarded the Sun family as her natal family. This is the reason.
If you meet an unscrupulous brother and sister-in-law, they may be sent away with two quilts.
There are also examples of this, such as when Bao Suyun married Yang Huazhou.
It's not that Bao Suyun's brother has no conscience, but that Bao Suyun's brother is soft-hearted and is manipulated by his sister-in-law.
Regarding his sister Bao Suyun, he was full of ambition and power.
Yang Huaming's blood boiled when he heard that Yang Ruoqing directly stated her attitude clearly and even refused the dowry proposal on behalf of the third room. In addition, he drank a lot of wine.
He patted his thigh and said, "Qing'er, what you said is so good. My fourth uncle thinks so too."
"Your grandparents, they can spend all their money to support your aunt. No matter how many times she gets married, she is still their daughter and they have to take care of it. That is also their business!"
"For us relatives, just adding a little makeup is enough to suit her!"
"Your father hasn't made this suggestion yet, but based on our understanding of him and your grandma, this topic will have to be raised sooner or later."
"Your master said that when the Hungry Ghost Festival is over, we can all sit down together to chat and discuss your aunt's marriage."
"Nine times out of ten, I'll save this until then, and bring it up in front of everyone. What if someone is soft-hearted and agrees right now? Then the others will be too embarrassed to refuse completely. They want as much as they want. There's some blood, what's that called?"
"Fourth Uncle, this is called moral kidnapping! You are targeting the herd mentality and asking everyone to follow suit!"
Looking back on many things that happened in the old Yang family, Yang Ruoqing saw many clues in this regard.
The old man knew his sons and daughters-in-law very well. If he wanted to call on everyone to do something collectively, but was afraid that it would be difficult to reconcile the opinions of everyone, he would attack the son who was easiest to talk to in advance. .
Perform pua on that son first, and then through that son, continue to radiate other sons.
Even if there are one or two left who are reluctant to cooperate, when most of the others obey, the remaining two can only passively obey.
And the 'lucky guy' who was chosen by Old Yang has always been honest, honest, righteous and the third son Yang Huazhong, who regards losses as blessings.
But this time, the honest man was no longer in the village and went to the capital, which put Lao Yangtou beyond his reach.
So I went to the fourth room today just to test, and I didn't dare to show my trump card easily.
When everyone is gathered together, even if Yang Huazhong is not present, as long as the two old men, Yang Huazhou and Yang Yongjin, are present, Old Yangtou can still use his super pua method!
But sorry, Yang Ruoqing and Yang Huaming have already figured out the old man's plan in advance.
"I will send a letter to my fifth uncle and my second brother later and let them know about this in advance," Yang Ruoqing said.
Yang Huaming said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry, right? Can't we just wait two days for them to return to the village to celebrate the Ghost Festival, and then call them home to talk about it?"
Yang Ruoqing didn't think so.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time when I get back to the village. My master is keeping an eye on me at any time!"
Therefore, you must take the initiative, greet them in advance, and express your attitude.
If after knowing all this, they are still willing to respond to the call of the old man and the old lady to collect a dowry for Yang Huamei, that is their own choice.
Anyway, the third and fourth bedrooms are not mixed together.
Before Yang Huaming left, he thought of something and sat back again.
But this time he was talking to Blacksmith Laluo.
"Brother Blacksmith, to be honest, if someone asks you to be a matchmaker one day, I can give you a message in advance."
