After the marriage, the strong beauty became rich and busy raising children

Chapter 296: Dowry of 1 Yuan?

Feng Zhuanxia was unhappy, she raised her voice: "His father, what are you talking about? We have no say in how to arrange the wedding, but the bride price is our business. If Xiaolan marries, who knows where she will marry? The mountains are high and the roads are long. I guess we won't see her once a year. We can't marry our daughter to their family for a hundred dollars, serve them, and carry on their family line."

"Mom, your words are so harsh."

Zhang Xiaofei was a little embarrassed, but still said with a smile: "Auntie, don't worry, we will come back to see you after we get married."

"Humph, you talk better than you sing. Who would believe your lies? Anyway, the betrothal gift is one thousand, not a cent less."

"Pah!" Zhao Hongcai slammed his chopsticks on the table. "I'm not dead yet. You have no say in this matter."

Feng Zhuanxia looked at him in disbelief, with confusion in her eyes.

She asked for more dowry for the sake of the family, not for her own spending.

What did she do wrong?

Zhao Lan was anxious: "Mom, are you asking for a dowry or selling your daughter? Xiaofei said that the dowry there is only a few dozen yuan. How will others see me if you act like this?"

"What do you mean by how they view you? I want a dowry of 88 yuan. How do you expect our fellow villagers to view me?"

"Okay, isn't it just a matter of face after all?" Zhao Hongcai knocked on the table, "Just follow their customs!"

With her father's support, Zhao Lan was completely relieved. She thoughtfully picked up some pickles for Zhang Xiaofei and said softly, "I'll serve you more after you finish eating."

Feng Zhuanxia was so angry, but she had no place to vent.

In the past, she had her son Zhao Yang to protect her, but now, she has no status at all in this family.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say, "It would be great if Zhao Yang was here for such an important matter."

Her original intention was to remind Zhao Hongcai: It is still unknown how much money will be spent on Zhao Yang's matter in the future, so he still needs to make more plans, keep some spare money, and don't let others take advantage of him.

But Zhao Hongcai acted as if he didn't understand and remained indifferent.

"By the way, did my brother divorce my sister-in-law?"

"What are you talking about? Your sister-in-law is working."

"But today when I got off the bus in the county town, I saw my sister-in-law with a man."

Feng Zhuanxia was so startled that she dropped her chopsticks.

"You must have seen it wrong. How could your sister-in-law be with a man? Is she your brother?"

"How could I not recognize my brother? That man is much better looking than my brother."

Feng Zhuanxia was confused: "Maybe they are talking about your brother, don't spread it around."

"Two people holding hands and feeding each other popcorn, do you think this is a normal relationship?"

Feng Zhuanxia's bowl fell to the ground.

With shaking hands, she picked up the broken pieces of the bowl and muttered to herself, "How is it possible? How is it possible? She took all the money."

Zhao Hongcai's face was as black as coal.

"This damned person actually dared to lie to us. I will go to the county town to find her tomorrow. Where did you see her?"

“I saw it near the station.”

Feng Zhuanxia threw the broken pieces of the bowl into the dustpan, feeling completely depressed. She wished she could fly to the county town right away and tear that bitch's mouth apart.

"Dad, give me your household registration book. We are going to Hainan to register for marriage. I will mail it back to you then."

Zhao Hongcai nodded: "What should we do about the wedding preparations?"

"We plan to travel and get married."

"What kind of travel wedding?"

"This is a new way of getting married, where two people go on a trip and it's the same as getting married."

Zhao Hongcai frowned. What's the difference between this and not being married? However, he couldn't care less about Zhao Lan's affairs now, so he left her alone and took out the household registration booklet and gave it to her.

"Hold it, don't lose it."

"Yes, I will carry it with me. Mom, can you help us clean up the house? We have been in the car for a whole day and a whole night, and we want to go to bed early."

"You won't sleep with me?"

"No, Xiaofei is not familiar with our place, and it is not convenient for him to go to the toilet at night. I will accompany him."

Isn't this just two people sleeping together?

This is a big taboo for them!

How could she give birth to such a shameless thing!

Feng Zhuanxia couldn't stand it anymore and said, "This is my mother's house. It's not appropriate for you to sleep together."

"Why is it inappropriate? We are going to get the marriage certificate."

"Even if we get the marriage certificate, it's not appropriate. It will ruin your brother's luck. Didn't you see that every time your sister comes back, she sleeps separately from your brother-in-law?"

Zhao Lan sneered: "My brother? What luck does he have?"

Just one sentence made Feng Zhuanxia's lips tremble.

Although Zhao Hongcai agreed to their marriage, he still cared a lot about his family's fortune.

"Xiaolan, listen to your mother."

Zhao Lan didn't dare to say anything else and had to agree.

But she also didn't want to sleep with her parents, so she ended up sleeping in Guan Lei's wedding room.

She rummaged through Guan Lei's house and finally found that all the jewelry and some good clothes were missing.

OK, so it was premeditated.

But she was curious about what kind of charm Guan Lei had that could attract other men even with a big belly?

Could it be that the baby in her belly is not her brother's at all?

*

It was midnight and the night was quiet.

Zhao Hongcai was already snoring, but Feng Zhuanxia wasn't sleepy at all.

She pricked up her ears, fearing that Zhao Lan would run to the black man again.

"Dad, are you asleep?" Feng Zhuanxia pushed Zhao Hongcai, "Wake up, let's talk."

"What's the matter again?" Zhao Hongcai's tone was full of impatience.

Feng Zhuanxia lowered her voice and said, "You promised Xiaolan and the others without thinking. Not only is this man ugly, but I heard he's in Hainan or somewhere else. God knows where he is. We can't even go to see him. How can you let Xiaolan marry him?"

Zhao Hongcai said angrily: "Why are you worried? Your daughter is 24, not 14. Is it possible that someone would abduct and sell her?"

"It's not about that. This is a lifelong event. As parents, we should find a family that knows our child well, right?"

"You're so idle!" Zhao Hongcai snorted coldly, "Given Xiaolan's temper and reputation, go out and ask around. Which family in this area who knows her well would be willing to marry her? It's better for her to marry to another place. Out of sight, out of mind."

"Why do you say that about Xiaolan? After all, she is a piece of my flesh and blood. I feel..." Feng Zhuanxia paused and continued, "I don't know what the conditions of this man's family are. However, the betrothal gift is only a few dozen yuan, and it's not a good place. Maybe they live in the deep mountains and forests."

"You keep nagging me, don't you? If you're so worried, just tie her to your belt."

Feng Zhuanxia sighed, "Then the betrothal gift..."

"That's enough. Are you done yet? You are like an animal, doing nothing every day. I have to work tomorrow and I don't have time for your useless chatter."

Feng Zhuanxia didn't dare to speak anymore.
