Hearing that, Mrs. Liu's face froze, she subconsciously used more strength to hold Li Qingling's hand, and hearing Li Qingling's painful cries, she gritted her teeth and let go.
"Who did you hear that from? We don't have such a custom here. " Mrs. Liu coldly snorted in her heart. She hadn't even seen her betrothal gift, and she already wanted to get a dowry from her side.
Li Qingling lowered his eyes and looked at his red wrist, and she lightly tugged at the corner of his mouth: "I heard from big sister Xiao He, that the customs here are like this." She tilted his head, and looked at Mrs. Liu suspiciously, "Could it be that I heard wrong?"
Mrs. Liu shook her hand, and the smile on her face became even more forced, just for the betrothal gift, she patiently explained to Li Qingling, "Each family is different from the other families. She looked at Li Qingling and saw that she was still confused. She then continued: "Think about it, if the male family was richer, with more betrothal gifts, and the female family was so poor, how could they afford a betrothal gift like the male family? "Right?"
"Hearing what Grandma said, it does make sense." Li Qingling nodded as he received his instruction.
"You, just that you're still young and didn't think of all this!" Seeing that Li Qingling took her words in, Mrs. Liu was slightly relieved in his heart, "You don't have to care about these things, I will help you take care of it properly."
Once she received Li Qingling's betrothal gift, she would be able to help her son marry a wife and come back.
Thinking about the family that her son had taken a fancy to and wanted so many betrothal gifts, she felt her heart ache.
However, her son didn't like the wife that she had taken a fancy to. He wanted that girl from the next village named Huang. If he didn't marry that girl, then he wouldn't marry her.
Her son didn't have anyone close to him, so how could she be at ease?
For her son, she had to compromise.
Li Qingling laughed and praised Mrs. Liu, making her praise him so much that she seemed to be floating in the air, before she continued, "I wonder how much dowry grandmother wants for me?"
Although she didn't really care about the betrothal gift, she didn't want Mrs. Liu to get it either.
When her family was in trouble, when there was no rice to cook, where had she gone?
If he wanted to obtain some benefits from her now, he wouldn't even think about it.
"Don't worry!" Grandmother will prepare the dowry for you, but I can't reveal it to you right now. "
She was not that stupid. If she had revealed her dowry to Li Qingling, how could she have brought the betrothal gift into her house?
Hearing that, Li Qingling opened his eyes slightly, and looked at Mrs. Liu with an expression of disbelief, "Didn't you reveal this dowry in advance? Why can't you tell me? " Did he really think that she was a three year old child and didn't know anything at all? Deceiving her like this?
If she was that stupid, how could she support her family?
They had long since been eaten alive by others.
"You can't reveal your dowry in advance. You'll have to wait until the day before you get married, then I'll give you the dowry list." She pretended to be sad as she looked at Li Qingling, "Xiao Ling, you don't believe Grandma? Do you think Grandmother will covet your dowry? "
Once she said that, she pressed her hand to the corner of her eyes, as if Li Qingling had hurt her heart!
"I didn't expect my kindness to be twisted into such a state by you. Seriously … "Seriously …"
When she finished, her voice was choked with sobs.
The corner of Li Qingling's mouth twitched as he watched Mrs. Liu put on an act.
If someone who didn't know anything saw this, they would really think that Mrs. Liu was thinking for her with all her heart!
"What's going on?" Before Li Qingling could speak, Auntie Huang's voice came from outside the door.
Li Qingling looked up and saw Li Qingning, who was following behind Auntie Huang. She stuck his head out and gave her a wink.
She almost laughed out loud. This ghost spirit probably saw that Mrs. Liu was making things difficult for her and ran over to call for Auntie Huang.
She pouted her lips, and Li Qingning made a funny face at her, before turning and running out. There was no need to say anything, she ran out to play crazily again.
"Auntie Huang, why are you here?" Come in and take a seat! " Li Qingling stood up and walked over, holding Auntie Huang's hand to let her sit down.
She lifted her hand to pour Auntie Huang a cup of tea and pushed it in front of her.
Auntie Huang smiled as she glanced at Li Qingling. She raised her hand to drink a mouthful and praised, "As a boorish person, I don't even know how to drink tea. I feel that Xiao Ling's tea is delicious. Finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Liu in shock, "Ah, Mrs. Liu, why are you here too? Do you think that Xiao Ling's tea is nice too, so you came over just to get some tea? "
Mrs. Liu laughed stiffly and nodded. She did not plan to stay any longer, she stood up and said that she still had matters to attend to at home, so she will return first.
"Grandmother, can you stay a little longer? I still have some things I don't understand about the betrothal gift and dowry. Can you explain them to me again?"
Auntie Huang also stood up and pressed down on Mrs. Liu's shoulders, pressing her back down on the chair once more, "So you guys were talking about the dowry? "Then I'm going to come and listen." She raised her eyes and smiled at Li Qingling, "Where did you guys say you were?"
Li Qingling looked at Mrs. Liu's stiff expression and couldn't help but laugh so hard that she looked like she was about to break into a knot.
With Auntie Huang around, she wanted to see whether Mrs. Liu's skin would be that thick again.
She looked at Auntie Huang and roughly explained what happened just now, "This is my first time getting married. I don't know much about it, so I'll have to ask for your advice."
Aunty Huang opened her mouth wide and looked at Mrs. Liu with wide eyes, "Liu Chunhua, did you really say that to Xiao Ling? Don't bully Xiao Ling because he is small, you don't know anything, are you saying stuff like that casually? " She had seen shameless people before, but she had never seen such a shameless person.
She was truly impressed by Mrs. Liu, to even say such words. If it was her, she would have dug a hole in the ground to hide in long ago.
"This... Isn't that so? " Li Qingling looked at Auntie Huang in doubt, then looked at Mrs. Liu, "Grandma, that's what you said just now. Are you lying to me?"
She reached out to pinch her thigh before she was able to suppress the smile on her face.
Ning Ning that ghost spirit was truly naughty. He did not look for anyone else and only went to find Auntie Huang.
Mrs. Liu's face alternated between red and white. She pursed her lips and took a deep breath before suppressing the anger in her heart. If it wasn't for the presence of an outsider, she would have slapped Li Qingling's face a long time ago.
Pretend … He wanted her to pretend …
If she did not ask Li Qingning for the Huang Clan to come, how could the Huang Clan have coincidentally come here?
"Liu Chunhua, you're Xiao Ling's grandmother, how can you lie to her like that?" Without waiting for Mrs. Liu to speak, Auntie Huang picked up on her words, "If others had heard this, they would have thought that you were greedy for Xiao Ling's betrothal gift."
She was called over by that little fellow Ning Ning, what did she think was the matter? He never thought that Mrs. Liu would be so thick-skinned as to covet Li Qingling's betrothal gift.
Li Qingling was her big boss, so she took her family on the road to becoming rich, allowing her family to live a good life. Just based on this point, he couldn't let Mrs. Liu have her way.
"When did I lie to her? Ah? Which one of your eyes saw me lying to her? " She had one hand on her waist and the other on Auntie Huang's nose, so she scolded, "Which family in the village do you think is going to get married without a betrothal gift? When your son marries, won't he give his wife a betrothal gift? If you don't give up your betrothal gift, how can you have a daughter-in-law? "
The Huang family's wife really didn't feel anything when she stood and spoke.
What's more, this was a family matter, so why would an outsider like her join in on the fun?
Auntie Huang did not put Mrs. Liu in her eyes at all. She leisurely raised her teacup and took a sip of tea.
"Huang Clan, this is our family's matter, you, as an outsider, are not qualified to interfere. If you have the time, go home and bring your grandson along!" Mrs. Liu opened her eyes wide, stared at Auntie Huang, then turned to look at Li Qingling, "Xiao Ling, this is our family's matter, it is not appropriate for Madam Huang to be here, you should let her go!"
When Li Qingling called the old granny Huang over, she should have called her away.
Li Qingling looked at Mrs. Liu with a troubled face, "Auntie Huang treats me like her own daughter, it's nothing for her to listen to here." If she chased Auntie Huang away, she would be a fool, "Grandma, what are you afraid of? "Hmm?"
Auntie Huang put down the cup and looked up at Mrs. Liu, "Of course she's scared! "If I am here, it would be difficult for her to covet your betrothal gift!" As if she hadn't seen Mrs. Liu's darkening face at all, she continued to speak while beaming, "Liu Chunhua, why don't we discuss the matter of Xiao Ling's betrothal gift here?"
Liu Chunhua, the wife, would not be surnamed Huang if he did not teach her a lesson.
"Discuss what?" What right do you have to discuss it? "Who are you in my family?" In Mrs. Liu's heart, she really wanted to leave, but she couldn't swallow her anger back down, "Scram … Get out of here right now! "
Auntie Huang was completely unaffected by Mrs. Liu's words, and spoke while beaming, "Did you not hear what Xiao Ling had said just now? I treat Xiao Ling as my own daughter, so I must intervene in the matter of her marriage. " Xiao Ling did not have any parents, so she would definitely help out with the matter of her marriage.
