Chapter 778: Should I ask for a bride price?

Wang Ying immediately agreed, "Her second aunt is right. Her second uncle relies on his own efforts. How can he rely on his father-in-law?"

Last night, Gu Jinghui was constantly envious that Gu Jingchuan had a rich and powerful father-in-law, and he disliked her natal family both in and out of words, which made Wang Ying feel very unhappy.

At this time, I finally found an opportunity and fought back.

"Jing Hui, stop talking nonsense to me. Do you think Jingchuan is like you and only wants to rely on others?"

Gu Jinghui bowed his head and remained silent after being scolded.

He felt like a mirror in his mind, even if he had a rich and powerful father-in-law, he would not be able to achieve anything, and he would only be able to manage people and get some money to spend.

He just didn't want to admit this fact in front of his brothers and sisters.

That's why I said that on purpose.

"Brother, it's not surprising that people like you have such thoughts. After all, you never know what hard work is." Tang Min was also offended by Gu Jinghui's unfair reasoning. She looked at him

, with a look of contempt on his face, "Do you think that your parents will never grow old? Do you think that your parents will not be able to support you when they get old, and Jing Qi and Jing Xiu will take over their duties?"

Gu Jinghui is a grown man after all, and his face burned with Tang Min's words, "I, I didn't think so."

He just... couldn't make an effort.

If you don’t want to do hard work, you won’t be able to do easy work.

Tang Min was too lazy to pay attention to him. His tone sounded light but firm, "Anyway, Jingchuan and I will not be able to provide you with any help in the future. Jingchuan and you are brothers."

Brother, he will respect you, but there is absolutely no way he can support you."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Jingqi and Gu Jingxiu, "Jingqi, Jingxiu, can you do it?"

Gu Jingqi shook his head hastily, "Of course not. I have the obligation to provide for my parents in their old age, but I have no obligation to support my eldest brother, unless he has difficulty moving and cannot work."

Gu Jinghui blushed angrily and said, "Jing Qi, why are you talking? You are cursing me!"

Gu Jingqi showed no fear at all, "What I said is the truth. If my eldest brother didn't have the basic ability to take care of himself, I, as the younger brother, would definitely take care of him. But the fact is,

You have hands and feet, a wife and children, and it is totally unjustifiable to let others take care of you!"

Gu Jingxiu also boldly stated, "Me too, I used to work the most and talk the least at home, because girls in rural areas lived like that. Since I entered

City, I found that both men and women can make money and get ahead as long as they work hard, and it doesn’t mean that girls are just for the family in exchange for bride price.”

It was the first time that Gu Jinghui heard Gu Jingxiu speak like this. He was angered by Gu Jingxiu's last words, "You girl, what do you mean? You won't need a bride price when you get married in the future, but you want to pay the price instead?"

"

This is not a question of money at all, this is a rule passed down from our ancestors.

How can you get married without a bride price?

Gu Jingxiu retorted, "I'm not a commodity."

In the past, because of the marriage of the eldest brother and the second brother, the family was completely deprived of money due to the huge betrothal gifts.

Although his parents didn't talk about it, in private, they often sighed and complained that his in-laws were too cruel and demanded so much money.

She didn't want to live that kind of life in the future.

Gu Jinghui rolled his eyes at Gu Jingxiu, as if he was looking at an idiot, "Jingxiu, let me tell you, do you know that when a girl's family marries someone, she must ask for a bride price? This is not a matter of money, you know?

You don’t need a bride price, and people won’t cherish you when you marry.”

Gu Jingxiu said he didn’t quite understand what his elder brother meant.

If you don’t cherish it, what does it have to do with the bride price?

Gu Jinghui spoke earnestly, "Look, your sister-in-law, when she married me, she asked for a gift of two thousand yuan, and she offered it like a Bodhisattva in our house. Why? Aren't we afraid that she would go away to fetch water from the gift?"

drift?"

Wang Ying, "..." It turns out that Gu Jinghui just cares about money!

It hurts my heart!

Everyone, "......"

Jin Zhengtai, who was sitting aside, rolled his eyes after hearing Gu Jinghui's words.

How could he not cherish his wife?

Regardless of whether you need a betrothal gift or not, you must treat it as a treasure when you take it home.

Of course, it is impossible for him to marry a wife without giving her a bride price.

Three media and six recruitments are absolutely unambiguous.

Gu Jingxiu felt that her eldest brother was unreasonable.

"Brother, I won't tell you."

But this time, Gu Decheng and Wang Guixiang stood against Gu Jinghui.

When a girl gets married, she should still give some betrothal gifts.

As Gu Jinghui said, if you don't need a betrothal gift, others won't appreciate it if you marry.

Too easy to get.

"Jingchuan, Xiaomin, what do you think?" Gu Decheng looked at Gu Jingchuan and Tang Min.

They felt that this girl Jingxiu's ideas were dangerous.

It needs to be corrected and trained properly.

Gu Jingchuan looked at Jin Zhengtai and said calmly, "Dad, Mom, my elder brother is actually quite right about this matter. There are still necessary procedures."

"Yes." Tang Min looked at Gu Jingxiu, "Jingxiu, you are still young and don't understand. Of course, there is a dowry along with the betrothal gift. It's not like in our hometown, where you exchange your daughter for a sum of money to give your son a wife.

He is a wife, but he never considers his daughter’s future life.”

The mentality of rural people is that married daughters throw away water.

In the future, if you don’t need your daughter to provide for you when you get old, it will be equivalent to buying it out with a betrothal gift.

This is why they tried every possible means to have a son.

But Tang Min feels that they should try to get the elderly to change such outdated concepts, which is a very important factor in achieving equality between men and women.

"You are right. We rural people are all like this. We only want to rely on our sons, and our daughters are all involved. In the end, it is all in vain. Now I can see clearly, no matter what the son is,

Sons and daughters should be treated the same, so that they can be relied upon in the future."

Gu Jingxiu was so moved that she burst into tears.

After being a little transparent in the family for so many years, her father finally treated her as a member of the family.

She said happily, "Mom and Dad, in a few years, when Jing Qi and I make money, you can come and live in the city."

"What about us?" Gu Jinghui asked eagerly.

Gu Jingxiu's tone was indifferent, "Brother, where do you live, what does it have to do with us?"

Gu Jingqi nodded, "Yes, brother, as long as you can buy a house in the city and survive, then you can come too."

"I'm going to marry a city wife in the future, but they won't let you live here."

Gu Jingqi gave Gu Jinghui a vaccination in advance, then looked at them and asked, "What if my second brother and second sister-in-law do nothing all day long, live in your house, and rely on you to support you and my sister-in-law?"

Do you like it?"

Gu Jinghui and Wang Ying, "..."

Gu Jingqi muttered, "In the past, when we were not separated in my hometown, you relied on your parents to support you, but my sister-in-law looked down on me and my sister."

Gu Jinghui and Wang Ying were extremely embarrassed, ashamed and angry.

What Keren is telling is the truth.

They couldn't refute even if they wanted to.

"Yingzi, look at the good things you did in the past." Gu Jinghui scolded Wang Ying, and then explained with a smile, "Your sister-in-law and I are not educated, so what are you arguing about?"

Gu Jingqi retorted righteously, "This is not a problem of culture. My parents are also uneducated. Aren't they still diligent in running the house and supporting a few of us?".
