Wei Cailing really wanted to leave some things for her sister as a dowry, and also wanted to leave some good things for her brother to marry, and she also wanted her parents and grandfather to live a better life.
She knew that her mother had taken out all her treasures in order to make her marry decently.
Her grandfather was even more generous in putting money into the coffin. Her brother Wei Yuzhi also spent all the private money he had saved since childhood on buying her this and that. Even her little sister Wei Pingting was clamoring to use her New Year's money to buy beautiful flowers for her sister.
The whole family only loves her.
If she hadn't married into a wealthy family, her family wouldn't have to be so cautious and fearful.
Wei Cailing felt warm in her heart, "What do you mean mine, yours, and hers? Aren't they all from my family? How can I use up all this dowry?"
"That won't work either!" Madam Wei said decisively, "You're going to be the mistress of the family when you marry in. If the dowry isn't generous, people will look down on you. If you keep half of the betrothal gift to your parents, people will say that our Wei family doesn't value you. I just want to tell everyone that my Ling'er is my mother's sweetheart."
Wei Cailing smiled tenderly and held her mother's arm obediently, "My daughter knows it in her heart. What does it matter what others think?"
Madam Wei sighed worriedly, "Ling'er, mother is telling you a truth, you just need to know it in your heart. Most men are good when they first get married. But time is the most tiring. After living together for a long time, it is inevitable that some of the novelty will fade and some boredom will arise. Therefore, if we women want to live a stable life, we rely on the dowry."
Wei Cailing listened carefully and did not refute.
Mrs. Wei was afraid of scaring her daughter, so she added, "Of course, I think Yunqi is a good child, so you don't have to worry too much. But a woman with a dowry should live a comfortable life, right?"
Wei Cailing nodded along with her mother, "My daughter has made a note of this." She glanced at her father who was standing there in a daze, and said with a smile, "In fact, not all men are cold and indifferent. For example, my father is the best man in the world."
A blush flashed across Mrs. Wei's face. "People like your father are a minority after all."
Wei Zhongshi listened to the conversation between his wife and daughter, and his originally serious face could no longer hide the smugness.
That's right! I, Wei Zhongshi, am the best man in the world!
If there is any shortcoming, it is that I am a little poor. But I am not as good as the rich, but better than the poor. No matter how poor I am, I am still richer than ordinary people and better than refugees.
After he consoled himself, he became proud and his voice became louder. "If Shi Yunqi dares to bully you, just go home. I...ah!"
Before Wei Zhongshi could finish his words, Mrs. Wei stepped on his foot.
Mrs. Wei was so angry, "My daughter hasn't even gotten married yet, and you're asking her to go home. Bah, bah, bah, get out of here! My daughter must get married happily and live happily ever after."
Wei Zhongshi felt very aggrieved, "I was just talking..."
"You can't even talk about it! I can talk, but you can't!" Mrs. Wei glared at her husband, "Don't bring bad luck to our daughter."
Wei Zhongshi laughed, "Okay, okay, I won't bring bad luck to you! I won't bring bad luck to you!"
But there was still someone who was in trouble. It was Wei Yuzhi. He walked in with Huo Shiwu and said, "If Shi Yunqi dares to treat my sister badly, I will beat him to a pulp!"
Huo Shiwu laughed, "He has a powerful brother-in-law! You can't beat him! You'd better stop making such harsh remarks here. Be good and restrain yourself and don't make fun of yourself."
Wei Zhongshi looked at his wife with amusement, "See, I'm not the only one saying this."
Mrs. Wei glared at her son helplessly, and finally, after careful selection, she still had a full 138 loads of dowry.
It would take a team of about four to five hundred people to carry the dowry to the Shi family.
Madam Wei knew that Tang Chujun had been staying at the house on Fushuang Road recently, so she went there in person to discuss with her, "If Ling'er's dowry is brought to the Marquis' Mansion like this, will it cause trouble for Qi'er?"
Tang Chujun liked Mrs. Wei's clarity and straightforwardness the most. She would ask questions about everything and never keep anything to herself.
It's especially comfortable to get along with such people. "It's not a big deal. What kind of trouble can there be? The marriage was arranged in a hurry, and Cai Ling was wronged. Do we have to be sneaky when we carry the dowry? We have to do what we have to do."
