Chapter 22
Chen shi waved his hand, "I wanted to give Dalang a blessing, but you all disagreed."
"The dowry money for marrying Yunjiao was taken by me as my dowry, not my family's money!"
"Why take my dowry money to marry the second wife?"
She snorted heavily, "Even if you want to marry Yun Jiao, it will be my Saburo, and Saburo is seventeen!"
Hearing his mother's words, Jiang Youzhi choked a mouthful of vegetable soup into his throat, coughing non-stop, his whole face flushed red from coughing.
Gu Yunjiao still lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Mr. Jiang said sternly on the next table: "Nonsense!"
"San Lang is going to marry a young lady from an official family in the future, how can he marry a widow!"
The corner of Yang's mouth twitched when she heard this, which clearly meant that her Erlang was not as good as Saburo. Although it was true, it was still uncomfortable.
Chen shi said with conviction, "Even if Saburo doesn't marry, then Yun Jiao is still in our big room."
"Anyway, I don't agree with this!"
Both Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Zhou didn't look good.
Both of them forgot that the dowry money was taken by the Chen family.
The dowry is a woman's private property, so it's really not easy to force the Chen family.
At this time, Jiang Erlang said: "Then give the auntie five taels of silver."
When the words fell, Mrs Yang called out, "Who would marry a widow for five taels of silver?"
"Even if it is a serious marriage, the dowry is only two or three taels of silver!"
When Gu Yunjiao heard this, half of her heart was relieved.
As long as the Chen family doesn't let go, according to the virtues of the Jiang family, it is impossible to marry her with five taels of silver.
Just thinking about it, Yang shi suddenly called out affectionately, "Yunjiao—"
"You are still young, you are only fourteen years old, you can't keep Dalang for a lifetime."
"Look at my Erlang, who is not only well-born, but also strong. You won't suffer if you marry him."
Gu Yunjiao raised her eyelids and pointed to the black circle around her neck, "Second aunt thinks I'm impatient?"
Yang was speechless for a while.
Chen shi said loudly, "Don't mention this in the future. Erlang wants to marry a daughter-in-law, so he will go to the matchmaker and talk to him. Don't hit my Yunjiao's idea!"
Yang's yin and yang said angrily: "Sister-in-law, we haven't separated yet, what about yours and mine? Even if it's a funeral—even if Yun Jiao took your dowry money to marry, so what?"
"Over the years, Saburo's money for studying flowers has been in the dozens of taels. It's all the money in the middle of the flowers. Now, for the five taels of silver, you've been arguing with your family? Does this make sense?"
Gu Yunjiao's hand holding the chopsticks tightened, and the heart that she had just put down was lifted up again.
Zhou Shi said at this time: "The second daughter-in-law is right."
This means that the Chen family should not care about the five taels of silver.
Chen Shi turned to look at Gu Yunjiao at this moment.
Gu Yunjiao lowered her eyes and thought to herself.
She married into this family, but it's only been more than two months. To be honest, she hasn't had any relationship with anyone yet. Although Chen's defending her, Chen's maintenance is definitely limited.
She would not pin all her hopes on Chen.
Looking at Gu Yunjiao, Chen Shi clearly felt that she had a touch of determination on her face.
Chen Shi sighed in his heart, if Erlang is a good person, she will not stop her today.
But Erlang is full of bad water. He was discovered by people who peeked at the widows in the village before taking a bath, and liked to hang out with some random people.
What's more, he gave Gu Yunjiao such a heavy hand last time.
If Yun Jiao married him, she would be killed by him in a few years.
