\u201cDad, I bought you some wine. I don\u2019t know whether you’ll like it or not.\u201d Jiang Zhen put the meat on the table and gave Zhao Fugui a jar of wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zhao Fugui had kept a straight face since Jiang Zhen entered their door, but when Jiang Zhen gave him a jar of wine, he couldn\u2019t help smiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, Jiang Zhen gave the cloth to Zhao Jinge. \u201cJinge, I bought you some cloth. It was said that you can make four sets of clothes from it. You can make two for yourself and one set for each of your parents.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zhao Jinge was speechless when he took the cloth. Although it was a bit strange to give Zhao Liu rouge and jewelry and such a gray cloth to him, he was still very happy in his heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m doing some small business and need to save some capital, so I didn\u2019t buy much,\u201d Jiang Zhen gave the gifts and explained, but he still didn\u2019t mention those chicken and ducks. Letting the Zhao family raise the chicken and ducks, they could talk about it later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After listening to Jiang Zhen\u2019s words, the Zhao family started wondering. Did Jiang Zhen say it because he didn\u2019t want to pay the bride price? But that was impossible. The things he bought plus the bracelet were worth at least 6 or 7 silver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere are still ten silver here. Take it.\u201d Jiang Zhen also gave ten silver to Zhao Liu. He knew that the Zhao family had no money. Before, Zhao Jinge had given all his savings to him, and they probably had even less money now. But they still needed to spend money for the marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He didn\u2019t want to worry about the wedding, but he couldn\u2019t let the Zhao family pay for it when they couldn\u2019t even afford to kill a pig. That would be too upsetting for Zhao Jinge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Zhao family didn\u2019t expect that Jiang Zhen would still give the bride price. They were overjoyed for a moment, and Jiang Zhen became more pleasing to their eyes. It was just that they had to talk about providing for their old age . . .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJiang Zhen, I have another thing to tell you. Jinge is our only child now, so we are going to ask him to feed us in the future,\u201d Zhao Fugui said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their countrymen attached great importance to the care of the elderly at the end of their lives. They even thought that, if no one organized a funeral, they would suffer in the underworld after their death. So some people, even if they were too poor, they had to have sons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt’s only right. You have brought up Jinge, and of course, we will take care of you till the end,\u201d Jiang Zhen said. Zhao Fugui and his wife had raised Zhao Jinge. Of course, Zhao Jinge would take care of them until the end of their lives. There was no doubt about that. In other words, if the butcher and his wife had been a little better to Eldest Jiang, he would have also done that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jiang Zhen agreed at once, and the Zhao family were even happier. The more they looked at Jiang Zhen, the more they liked him. There must be a reason why Eldest Jiang was so fierce before. He was obviously a person who was easy to come along with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry. We can still work. You don\u2019t need to support us now, and we can still help you with your children,\u201d Zhao Liu said. She was suddenly full of hope for the future. At the thought that she could take care of her grandson, she felt much better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes, that\u2019s right. I can work for at least another ten years,\u201d Zhao Fugui also said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd the bride price, you don\u2019t need to worry. We\u2019ll let Zhao Jinge take it with him. I\u2019ve saved some money, and Jinge should also have some. We can buy a mu of land as a dowry for him, so that you can have a better life in the future,\u201d Zhao Liu also added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWait . . .\u201d Jiang Zhen interrupted Zhao Liu’s words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d Zhao Liu asked. Doesn\u2019t Jiang Zhen want to buy land?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2019s not a bride price but a dowry,\u201d Jiang Zhen said arrogantly. \u201cIn the future, I will come to your house to live. First, I will give you the dowry, and you can decide if you want to buy something. It\u2019s also good to buy land. There is nothing to lose.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Proofreader: Taalia <\/p>\n\n\n\n Support translation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last night, after a long discussion, the Zhao family finally worked out a plan and set up two requirements for Jiang Zhen.
