Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“We are all women, so we have to understand each other. Sister Huang, you have a daughter too, so you definitely understand my intentions.” Madam Zhang was eloquent, Madam Huang simply could not resist.

“Ah Lu, what do you think about this?” Madam Huang took a deep breath and forced herself to remain calm. She could only bring up Song Lu. She really could not win against Madam Zhang. Everyone here was from the Chu family. She felt inexplicably wronged.

However, for the sake of her face, it was not something she could say.

Song Lu sighed helplessly in his heart. Finally, he said, “Mother, I don’t want to make things difficult for you, and I don’t want to mistreat Qingxiang. Since we are married, it is a good thing for both of us. There is no need to be estranged because of two taels of silver.”

Madam Huang’s face flushed red, and she looked at Song Lu with an accusing gaze, roaring in her heart. Was she trying to make things difficult for him? It was clearly the Chu family who had gone too far. They actually wanted so much.

This betrothal money was already considered very good in the village. In the past, when she got married, she only needed a foot of cloth and two pieces of clothes to get married. After that, she still had to live her life. Why did she need so much betrothal money?

Adding on the cost of the banquet and other items, it would cost a total of six to seven taels of silver. This was enough to build three to four houses.

In the Song family, they would not have much left after taking out this money.

When she heard her son say this, and even felt that he had mistreated Chu Qingxiang, Madam Huang felt a surge of anger in her heart.

“Mother,” Song Lu said, “I promise to change the betrothal money to six taels. I will earn the remaining two taels of silver before the wedding.”

When Madam Zhang heard this, she instantly smiled. “I knew Ah Lu was sensible. A wedding has to look good, and a man needs to focus on it too. Sister Huang, look at this child. He understands us. He is a good child.”

Madam Huang forced a smile. Of course, she knew that her son was a good child. Otherwise, how could he be admitted as a scholar?

In fact, the betrothal money for the family’s marriage was actually paid by his son.

However, the Sonq familv did not live separatelv and there were still so many juniors. She had long been used to treating the money her son handed over as her own.

Madam Zhang could tell that she was unhappy, but she had her eyes on Song Lu and had no feelings for the Song family. With her around, would the Song family dare to bully Qing Xiang?

Since she did not dare to bully Qingxiang openly, she could always gain the upper hand with Qingxiang’s abilities.

Moreover, Song Lu’s attitude was good. How could she be unhappy? She warmly welcomed him.

Seeing her son Song Lu getting along so well with Madam Zhang, Madam Huang felt even more sad. At the same time, she was a little worried. Seeing her son like this, would he stop giving money to the family after he got married?

Now that she saw her future daughter-in-law’s powerful family, she instantly had an ominous premonition. She even felt a trace of regret. If she had known that her son’s reputation was so good, she would have chosen the girl from the weak family.

Madam Liu had been watching from the side, so she caught the change in Madam Huang’s expression.

She picked up her teacup and took the initiative to talk to Madam Huang.

“Guihua, as an elder, I rarely care about the children’s affairs.”

“But Madam Zhang’s tone was really bad just now. I apologize on her behalf.”

When Madam Huang heard this, she was a little terrified. She had long heard of Madam Liu’s ability. How could she be so easy to talk to?

“Aunt, you’re too polite. I can understand Sister Zhang’s motherly heart…”

When Madam Liu heard this, she thought to herself that Madam Huang was indeed like the rumors, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Such a weak mother-in-law, had both advantages and disadvantages to Qingxiang..
