Chapter 14 Dowry
Su Yunyun winked at Lin Yaying, but Lin Yaying pretended not to see, her face pale as she asked Song Chunfeng, “You’re Su Nan’s fiancé?” She thought Su Nan had brought a stranger home! “Yes.” After receiving Song Chunfeng’s confirmation, Lin Yaying was slightly surprised.
So Su Nan had spent these days with her fiancé. Su Yunyun pulled Lin Yaying aside and whispered, “Mom, remember, I’m Su Nan now.” “This man is my fiancé.” As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Yaying knocked her on the head, “What are you thinking?” Su Yunyun frowned, clutching her head, “Mom, why did you hit me?” “Su Nan has been gone for days, and her fiancé doesn’t know her.
As long as you cooperate, I won’t forget you when I live a good life.” Lin Yaying said impatiently, “Su Nan brought him home herself.” “They’ve met before.” Su Yunyun’s eyes widened, “What?” How could that be? Why didn’t he say so earlier? Knowing the truth, she wished she could find a hole to hide in. Now she didn’t even have the courage to look at Song Chunfeng. And why could Su Nan find such a handsome fiancé? She was so jealous!
Su Yunyun hesitated, turned and ran out, almost bumping into Su Nan, who had just returned. “Why didn’t you die out there?” Su Yunyun’s hatred erupted at that moment. She had never hoped for Su Nan’s death as much as now. Su Nan looked down at her, coldly saying, “That means someone else should die.
” Su Yunyun glared at her and ran away. Su Nan returned home speechlessly, meeting Song Chunfeng’s concerned face, “My dad will be back soon.” “Okay.” Seeing this, Lin Yaying knew it was a good time to discuss the bride price. Since this man was going to marry Su Nan anyway, the eggs could be saved.
She put away the eggs and sat there, like a stern elder. Su Nan poured Song Chunfeng a glass of water; they sat with their backs to Lin Yaying, completely ignoring her. At this moment, Su Yongsheng walked into the yard, muttering, “Where did everyone go?” “No one even came out to greet me.
” Su Nan gave Song Chunfeng a reassuring look. Knowing her cheap dad, he was about to start acting superior. Su Yongsheng muttered in the yard for a while, seeing no one paying attention to him, he turned and entered the main room. Before entering, he saw Lin Yaying sitting upright, looking surprised. What was this? Lin Yaying gave him a look, and after a while, Su Yongsheng sat down beside her, looking like two stone lions guarding the house. Su Nan broke the silence, getting straight to the point, “Dad, give me my household registration book, I’m getting married.”
She had already discussed the bride price with Song Chunfeng: 168 yuan, all for her. No one in the Su family would get a cent of her bride price. Su Yongsheng glanced at her, “I can give you the household registration book, but let’s discuss the bride price first.” “The bride price is 168 yuan, we’ve already discussed it.” Su Nan said directly. Su Yongsheng took a deep breath, carefully weighing the weight of 168 yuan. Before he could speak, Lin Yaying, sitting beside him, couldn’t sit still, “No, 168 yuan is too little.”
She still wanted a new house, and 168 yuan would be gone just for her son’s wedding. Su Yongsheng suddenly looked up at Lin Yaying, showing an unbelievable expression. 168 yuan was too little? He licked his dry lips, not knowing what to say. The authority he had built on the way back crumbled before the huge bride price.
This wasn’t his area of expertise. “I’m talking to my dad, what are you butting in for?” Su Nan asked sharply, not intending to give Lin Yaying any face. Lin Yaying’s face instantly fell. Just as she was about to lash out, she heard Su Nan say, “My dad is the head of the family.” After hearing Su Nan’s words, Su Yongsheng’s shoulders straightened unconsciously. Lin Yaying’s words were stuck in her throat, she couldn’t say anything. This Su Nan was becoming increasingly difficult to handle. Everyone waited quietly for Su Yongsheng to speak.
He pretended to be calm, cleared his throat, and slowly said, “The bride price is a little low.” “I think the brigade leader’s bicycle is good, is there any way to get one?” As he spoke, he couldn’t help but glance at Song Chunfeng. Seeing that Song Chunfeng didn’t directly refuse, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Negotiation was terrifying. The key was that he didn’t think the bride price was too little. What if they didn’t want to marry Su Nan if they negotiated further? “The bicycle is no problem, but I need to see the household registration book first.” Su Nan was worried that after negotiating for a long time, she wouldn’t even see the household registration book. “Go get it and show her.
” Su Yongsheng said to Lin Yaying. Lin Yaying clearly didn’t want to, sitting in the chair for a long time without getting up, as if she had grown into the chair. “Don’t you listen to me anymore?” In front of outsiders, Su Yongsheng cherished his face even more. Lin Yaying tightly pursed her lips, her eyes cold, finally saying what was on her mind, “Who gives away their household registration book without receiving the bride price?”
“Dad, I’m your only daughter, how could I possibly let you suffer a loss?” “I want to see the household registration book because I don’t trust this woman.” Su Nan said without reservation. “Hurry up and get the household registration book!” Su Yongsheng’s voice rose, angering Lin Yaying so much that she stomped her feet and went back to her room. Su Nan was basically certain that the household registration book was in their room. But… she had secretly searched it before, why couldn’t she find it? After a while, Lin Yaying rushed out of the room, holding a household registration book, “Here! The household registration book is here.” “The bride price is fixed at five hundred yuan.”
“You’ll get this after the money is paid.” Su Nan gasped, did this person really think she was a lion, trying to open her mouth wide? She said softly, “No problem.” Lin Yaying and Su Yongsheng both changed their faces, “Really?” “Of course!” Su Nan’s eyes were filled with smiles. In the blink of an eye, she snatched the household registration book from Lin Yaying’s hand.
It’s called deception in war. “You!” Lin Yaying realized something and shouted, “Return the household registration book!” Su Nan said slowly, “You hid the household registration book to control me, let me tell you, no way!
” Lin Yaying wouldn’t easily hand over the household registration book, immediately lunging forward, but her hand was quickly grabbed, and her whole body was lifted into the air, her feet off the ground.
