Nongmen hot wife: Mysterious husband, come to farm!

Chapter 238 Withholding the Dowry Gift
Lin Mei drank the new wife's tea, took out a red envelope and put it in Zi Yan's hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Mother gave Xiaotai to you, I hope you can live a good life with him."

Lin Mei had mixed feelings about this new daughter-in-law. To say she was good was wonderful, but to say she was bad was really bad.

Therefore, even the words to her exhortations were dry.

"Mother, put it away, I will live a good life with my husband, and I will also honor your two elders and love my younger brothers and sisters."

"Okay! Mother believes that you are all good children." Lin Mei was originally a kind woman, and she had mixed feelings about Ziyan. First, she thought she was a high-status girl in the city, and second, she felt that her family didn't like Su Tai. Make her a little uncomfortable.

Apart from these two points, there is nothing else, so Zi Yan will not be embarrassed.

After serving tea, the whole family sat together and talked.

Su Ning was facing Zi Yan's direction, so unconsciously, he saw Zi Yan winking at Su Tai. Su Tai looked a little hesitant, and pinched his sleeves.

Su Ning was curious and stared at him.

Su Tai was immersed in his own thoughts, so he couldn't notice Suning's eyes. He didn't hesitate for a long time, and opened his mouth under Ziyan's urging.

"Father, I have something to say."

"Huh?" Su Xiangrui and his wife smiled and looked puzzled.

Su Tai awkwardly took out something from his sleeve and put it on the table, only then did Suning realize that it was a 100 tael bank note.

"Second brother, why do you have so much money? Did you go up the mountain again? When? Why don't I know?" Su An's mouth was like a firecracker.

Before Su Tai said a word, Suning had already asked a long list.

Su Tai wiped his face uncomfortably and said, "This belongs to your sister-in-law, she..."

Su Tai paused while speaking, and pushed the banknote in front of Su Xiangrui.

"Father, you keep the money, it's Zi Yan's filial piety to you."

The faces of the two elders of the Su family changed, and they yelled at the same time, "How can this be done, no matter how bad our family is, we can't do the thing of taking the bride to the bottom of the box."

Ziyan is a bride who can't speak, so she can only lower her head.

Su Xiaomei was somewhat clearer, and explained: "The 100 taels should be the betrothal gift from the parents, plus the dowry prepared by the young lady for the sister-in-law."

The Su family had heard from the little sister that Li Ruyun would give Zi Yan 30 taels of makeup, and thinking that Zi Yan had such parents, they gave her a dowry of 66 taels of face.

In Niujiao Village and the surrounding villages, the living conditions are not so good. Generally, a daughter-in-law is two or three taels, a better one is five or six taels, and a richer family is nine taels or nine.

A dowry gift as large as Su Rong's was not to mention the first one, after that few people except Xiao Fang's had such a blessing, let alone such an astronomical figure as 66 taels.

"Isn't this betrothal gift for your family?" Lin Mei looked at the bank note with dull eyes.

Although she was a little bit reluctant when she gave this heavy betrothal gift, after all, this amount can buy more than ten acres of land. Who would spend so much money to marry a daughter-in-law!
But Su Tai earned the money after all, she would not be harsh on her son, she gritted her teeth and took out the money, but she didn't expect the money to be brought out again.

Ziyan's eyes darkened, she forced a smile and said, "Since my parents don't like my marriage, they probably wouldn't take this dowry seriously!"

Su Xiaomei said quickly: "Brother gave the dowry to Miss, and sister-in-law secretly withheld the money and brought it back to our home."

Hearing this, the Su family didn't know what to say, they looked at each other in blank dismay.
