Chapter 2443 Gu Dongxing Nan Mengyu The Third Life 27
Old Mrs. Nan dragged her eldest daughter-in-law home and threw her on the ground: "You stinky bitch, are you confused? You have ruined your man's reputation. How can you let your man get around in the village in the future?"
At this time, Shi knew that she had said something wrong, but she still refused to admit it: "Isn't this because you hit me, mother, so I said something indiscriminately?" She immediately thought of the You family's affairs and quickly asked her mother-in-law for advice.
: "What should I do now?"
"What else can we do? Return the money to the You family, and say that the second family does not agree to sell their daughter, and you are not qualified to sign the contract on her behalf."
"But the boss has already signed it, otherwise how could they give us the one hundred taels of silver."
"Then collect the money and return it to them."
"But, but, the contract says that if you break the contract, you will have to pay double compensation!" Shi cried: "Two hundred taels, where can I get so much money?"
Old Mrs. Nan poked Shi's forehead with her finger and scolded: "You are also stupid. It's just a gift for you to sell your second girl for a happy occasion. How can you risk life and death for it? Don't you think about how many engagement gifts the Gu family gave you back then? You really
If you risk your life and death by selling Erya, then the Gu family won't come to ask you for the engagement gift? What will you give him in return?"
"Erya is not from our eldest family member, so if we want to pay back, we must pay it back to our eldest family member," Shi said confidently.
Old Mrs. Nan was so angry that she poked Shi's forehead again: "Do you want the second house to pay back the engagement gift? The 20 acres of fertile land given by the Gu family as a wedding gift are still in the hands of your first house. Don't want it."
You take it out? There are also the one hundred taels of silver. Are you willing to live in this courtyard where we live?"
Shi Shi shivered, how could she have forgotten that when Gu Dongxing of the Gu family got engaged to Erya of the Nan family, they were given twenty acres of fertile land and one hundred taels of silver. Now these things are used by the big family.
Woolen cloth.
Old Mrs. Nan added: "Jin is much smarter than you. She didn't sign or even write the marriage letter to the You family. Her idea was that Young Master You was short-lived anyway, maybe in the past few days.
After all, when Master You dies, she can still get Erya back and marry her to the Gu family. Anyway, the boy from the Gu family has no backer, so as long as someone marries him, she won't be afraid of him making trouble."
Thinking of Jin Sanniang's intelligence, Old Mrs. Nan felt depressed again. The eldest daughter-in-law had no brains except greed, so why wasn't she as smart as the second daughter-in-law?
If something like this happens now, not only will he lose his face, but he will also have to pay one hundred taels of silver to compensate the You family.
They say that marrying a good wife will make three generations rich, but marrying a bad wife will harm three generations. They are absolutely right.
"Okay, let's all chip in and get these two hundred taels of silver." Old Mrs. Nan sighed and said, "If it doesn't work, just sell all the engagement gifts given by the Gu family."
Shi's expression suddenly changed: "That's reserved for marrying a wife and giving a dowry to your daughter."
The engagement gifts given by the Gu family were all controlled by the old lady at first and were not given to the second wife. At that time, the old lady said that she would keep them for the granddaughter-in-law as a meeting gift and a few granddaughters as dowries.
If it is sold, the daughter's dowry will be gone.
Old Mrs. Nan glared at her: "You feel sorry for me. This belongs to Erya. I'm still worried that Zhong Guang won't be able to explain it when he comes back."
When Shi thought that this was the engagement gift belonging to Erya, it was kept by the old lady. If the second brother really came back, he would definitely have to return it to the second wife. It would be better to use these things to settle the matter now.
"But those few things can't be sold for money in such a hurry."
