Eldest Brother Han didn’t know what else to say since it was truly impossible to grant her wishes. If it was his own daughter, he could just say that it wasn’t possible and coax her a bit. However, this was his mother’s precious daughter, so what could he say?
Was he supposed to tell his sister to not ask for anything?
Eldest Brother Han, “Why don’t we wait until the Second and Third Brother comes home before we continue?” Now that the families were separated, he didn’t represent the Eldest Family that was placed in charge either. All he did now was to make sure that he earned enough work points and took care of his parents.
Lin Lan said, “Excuse me but I have the final say when it comes to this kind of thing in our family. When the family was separated, it was said that when our youngest twins were going to get married, we would prepare the dowry appropriately and evenly split it between us four families. From Eldest Sister-in-Law’s, Second Sister-in-Law’s, mine, to the rest of the village, take a look at how things were for us when we got married. Once we get an idea and do things according to that plan, we’ll split it among us four families. If you request more from us, we’re not going to be able to do that, so don’t bother wasting your time convincing us otherwise.”
She glanced at Han Jinyu again and said, “The Liu family said they would be giving you a whole 3W1S set. Is it for the Old Han Family or is it something that you have to bring back with you after you get married? If it’s the latter, then what sort of dowry is that? It’d just be coming round our family for a spin that gives the Old Liu family a reputation and ego boost. Basically, it was meant to put you into a trap and you actually think that it’s true?”
She was thinking too highly of herself.
Second Sister-in-law Han also chimed in, “The Third Family is right. They haven’t even met each other a few times and the parents of both parties haven’t sat down to have a good chat. Why is the dowry mentioned already? Are the parents of the Liu Family or some relatives not going to come to our door to talk about this? I think we should write down the price and items of the dowry properly in black and white to even consider this an engagement. All you’re doing right now is believing the words of someone else. Plus, they haven’t even calculated their compatible fates with each other.”
Han Jinyu said angrily, “How would you know if we have already predicted that? I already went to his house and his parents are very happy with me. I was told that the engagement could proceed there and then. Besides, they even talked about giving me a 3W1S as dowry, which led to this conversation. After we finish talking about it, our two families can start officially being engaged.”
Old Lady Han said angrily, “Sit down and let’s talk business.”
Lin Lan, “Such an argument would lead to us arguing about it for an entire year and we still won’t come to a conclusion. I think it’s better if you guys ask how other people get dowries for their daughters. After you think about it and talk it through, you can let us know. Xiaowang is still at home, so I’m going to go back and check on him.”
