As soon as Madam Mo finished speaking, Mo Hanyue walked in with a blushing face.
"Mr. Meng, can Hanyue make a request?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present except He Zhiran was a little shocked.
How could there be a marriage in the girl's family where she had to come forward to request it?
Mo Hanyue really had no choice but to think about it and decided to tell her before marriage.
Soon, Mrs. Mo's face darkened and she said in a displeased tone: "Hanyue, your mother and your brother will help you with your marriage. How can you, a girl, do it yourself?"
God knows how much courage Mo Hanyue mustered up to come here. Now that she has spoken out, there is no reason to back down.
She raised her head stubbornly and said, "Mom, Hanyue has been studying pharmacology with Sister-in-law Jiu for more than half a year, and now she has just started to plant medicinal fields. I hope that after we get married, Master Meng can promise me to come here every day to take care of my medicinal fields. "
Sister-in-law Jiu said that whatever you do must have a beginning and an end, and you cannot give up halfway.
She really likes medicine, especially watching the medicinal materials she planted grow day by day. It is a sense of satisfaction that she has never had since she was a child.
Although she also likes Meng Huaining and is willing to marry him, if she can no longer continue to do what she likes because of this, she would rather not marry for the rest of her life.
Mo Hanyue also just figured it out in the past two days.
Because Meng Huaining mentioned their marriage, she thought about the future.
Among the nine sisters-in-law in the family, except for the ninth sister-in-law who has her own subjective consciousness, the other eight sisters-in-law regard their husband as their first priority and live a life without hope in a step-by-step manner all day long.
This is not the life he wants. She wants to be like Jiu Sao, who has her own abilities and can create more value through her own efforts.
At first, Meng Huaining and Mo Hanyue's attitude when they came here was that she didn't want to marry him!
He was so frightened that the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat.
Unexpectedly, the little girl made such a small request.
He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that his future mother-in-law still wanted to scold her, he quickly stepped forward.
"There's no problem with that. I happen to be planning to buy a house. If Miss Mo thinks Xiling Village is suitable, I wouldn't mind building a yard here that's the same as the Mo family's new house."
This is also a small thought of Meng Huaining.
Today he went to the foot of the mountain and saw the new Mo family house. It was different in structure and made people feel very comfortable.
Besides, he has no relatives or friends in Yuncheng, so he might as well marry his beloved wife.
If Mo Hanyue is taken care of by her mother-in-law when he is busy with official duties, he doesn't have to worry.
In fact, Meng Huaining did not see what the Mo family's new house would look like after it was completed.
If he had seen it, he would definitely not have looked for so many reasons to build a house here. Just the word "comfort" would have made him make the choice without hesitation.
Speaking of the same yard, everyone in the Mo family knows that the reason why the new house is so well built and unique is all due to He Zhiran.
Therefore, everyone's eyes fell on He Zhiran.
He Zhiran had no objection to Nan Rui's desire to build the same house, and she would have no objection if Meng Huaining, a future relative of hers, wanted to build it.
"Since Brother Meng has such a plan, why not let our Mo family build it and treat it as part of the dowry for Hanyue."
She has been thinking about what kind of dowry to prepare for Mo Hanyue these days.
Just now, she also saw the betrothal gift sent by Meng Huaining. In Yuncheng, this was definitely a sky-high price, which showed how much Meng Huaining valued Mo Hanyue.
In this case, the Mo family cannot lose their etiquette.
She also asked the villagers that when some wealthy families in Yuncheng married a girl, they would give some shops, real estate, or village properties as a dowry.
Since Meng Huaining likes to live here, why not give them a courtyard similar to the Mo family's.
When the time comes, prepare some jewelry and other items, and Mo Hanyue's dowry will be complete.
Although she has a lot of space for these things, they are all "dirty items" after all. If they cause unnecessary trouble, they will be worth the loss. Therefore, He Zhiran plans to buy some other styles on Taobao.
Anyway, there are still almost two months until their wedding, which is enough time for her to prepare.
Based on Old Madam Mo's understanding of He Zhiran, Jiu's daughter-in-law is a sensible and generous person. Now that she is in charge of the family, she will not mistreat Hanyue's dowry. However, the old lady never expected that her daughter-in-law would give it away as soon as she opened her mouth. An identical house.
You know, that house looks like nothing on the surface, but the cost is extremely high, especially the glass used for the windows, which were purchased from foreigners. How could the price be so low?
Besides, there's only so much of that stuff, and it's not easy to get it again after you use it up.
There are nine daughters-in-law in the family, and even if the ninth daughter-in-law is generous, there is no guarantee that the other daughters-in-law will feel uncomfortable with such things.
She can't ignore the feelings of other daughters-in-law for the sake of her daughter's dignity.
"This..." Isn't it a bit too expensive?
He Zhiran knew what his mother-in-law was thinking, and she was worried that the dowry given to Mo Hanyue would be too generous, which would easily cause dissatisfaction among the other sisters-in-law.
It was not that He Zhiran had not considered this before speaking.
What she was thinking was that there was only such a sister-in-law in the family, and the money in her hands could be said to be as rich as the country's, and she would not care at all about the small dowry given to Mo Hanyue.
What's more, she has no intention of disbursing the money in public accounts.
"Mom, my husband and I have already agreed that the dowry for Hanyue will come from our private rooms and will not touch the public accounts of our Mo family."
Ever since he settled down in Xiling Village and started raising rabbits, He Zhiran had recorded his family's income and expenses in a small notebook.
On the last day of every month, she would gather her family together, make the accounts public, and pay everyone the corresponding wages. Of course, the wages were distributed according to work, and no one would have any objections.
Mrs. Mo knew that her ninth son and his wife had a lot of money, but that was also their personal property. How could she use her son's money to help her daughter?
But she is not a country woman who has never seen the world. Since the ninth daughter-in-law has spoken out her words in front of her future son-in-law, there is absolutely no reason to kick the ball back.
"In that case, Mom has saved some private houses here, so let's use them to build a house for Hanyue!"
The children in the family are filial and will give her some of their wages every month. She also makes some dolls with her daughters-in-law to earn income. Mrs. Mo has indeed saved some money in her hands.
But she was still worried that it might not be enough to build a courtyard like that. Therefore, Mrs. Mo's tone of voice was not very confident.
