EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Rice: The man would prepare twelve catties of glutinous rice and three catties of sugar. This would be used to make glutinous rice balls for the woman, with the meaning of perfection and sweetness.
When Madam Zhang saw that the betrothal money was six strings instead of the six taels of silver that she had hinted to the other party before, she was a little unhappy. If she had felt that it was too much before, they could have said it directly. Now, they were playing tricks on her.
Six strings of silver were only equivalent to four taels of silver. It was just that six strings sounded better. Did she really think that she did not even know how to read money?
In the entire betrothal gift, the most valuable things were the betrothal gold and the wedding bracelet.
As for the rest, according to Madam Zhang’s understanding, they would at most spend two strings of money.
Although she thought so, there was no specific number written on it. Madam Zhang was a little worried, so she directly discussed the number with Madam Huang.
Madam Huang saw that she did not mention the betrothal money and was delighted.
Even if it was other details, they would cooperate with him.
Song Lu personally wrote down the exact number.
However, Madam Huang was happy too early.
After confirming all the numbers, Madam Zhang took a sip of tea and said with a smile, “Sister Huang, Ah Lu, I’m afraid there’s a mistake here. Although I don’t know many words, I can still recognize the difference between ‘strings’ and ‘taels’.”
One had to know that the first thing Madam Zhang learned about words was to recognize the writing method of all kinds of money.
She did not even need to ask Madam Liu to confirm that she was not mistaken.
Sure enough, when Madam Huang heard her say this, her heart skipped a beat. She forced a smile on her face. “Sister, this is not wrong. If it’s written as four taels, it won’t sound good.”
This meant that they were only going to give four taels of silver.
Madam Zhang smiled and said, “Ah Lu, just from the county’s female arts competition alone, my daughter won a piece of barren land worth three to four taels of silver. We haven’t counted the hairpins yet.”
“I’m not trying to make things difficult for you. I just want to be honest.
Besides, I’m going to add half of the betrothal gift to Qingxiang’s dowry. The Chu family will not be greedy.” Why did she say half? It was because Madam Zhang wanted to save money for her two sons.
Of course, the bride’s family in the village usually would not share the betrothal gift with their daughter. The dowry was also prepared in advance.
Therefore, in Madam Zhang’s opinion, she was so good to her daughter that she could be considered to have set a precedent in the village.
When Madam Huang heard Madam Zhang say this, she did not believe it.
Which family would ask the man for more betrothal gifts? It was a matter of pride. The dowry was already provided to their daughter.
How could any parents be willing to give betrothal gifts to their daughters?
A married daughter had to be filial to her husband’s family first before being filial to her mother’s family.
It would be considered If her family did not need to subsidize her when she was not doing well in her husband’s family.
Therefore, Madam Huang did not believe it at all.

However, Madam Zhang had said this, and she could not find anything to refute it. She could only say dryly, “Sister, you have a point. But Ah Lu spent a lot of money on his studies. He is capable. He will definitely be filial to you in the future. ”
Madam Zhang snorted coldly. She had no proof. Who knew how filial her son-in-law would be in the future?
She was happy to marry her daughter to Song Lu because she saw that Madam Ye was doing well. Song Lu was also a scholar.
As for whether she could enjoy the filial piety of her daughter and son-in -law, she did not dare to look forward to it, but Madam Huang could guarantee it.
“Sister Huang, I know that your family is in a difficult situation, but please understand my heart as a mother. Who doesn’t want their daughter to marry more gloriously? Women only fight when it comes to marriage..”
