Chapter 800: People Are Not Pixiu, Cannot Only Enter and Not Exit

"It must be mentioned. If you are too embarrassed to mention it, then find an opportunity to bring the person back and let your eldest brother mention it."

The old lady said righteously: "Your dad is gone, the eldest brother is like a father, your marriage must be decided by your eldest brother."

"Mom, my sister is not a twenty-year-old girl getting married. She is over forty now, can't she make her own decisions about her marriage?" Shen Yingying couldn't help but speak up for her sister.

Such a good person as Mr. Jiang, she didn't want the family to ruin her sister's marriage by interfering.

"It's not that she can't get married, it's about the betrothal gift." The old lady said.

At this time, Shen Ci slowly put down her chopsticks and looked at the old lady: "Grandma, then if Mom gets married, do you prepare a dowry?"

As soon as these words came out, the old lady was stunned.

Shen Ci looked at her expression and smiled faintly: "I don't mean anything else, but betrothal gifts and dowries are not separated. Since you want a betrothal gift, there must be a dowry."

"You and Eldest Uncle both feel that if Mom doesn't want a betrothal gift, she is belittling herself. Then our own family cannot fail to value Mom first. This dowry, more or less, cannot be too shabby, right?"

Shen Ci knew what the economic condition of the Shen family was. She only needed to raise the requirements a little bit to directly crush them.

"I think we should accompany a car, about twenty dollars is enough." Shen Ci said particularly easily: "Although this price can't buy a good car, the meaning is there. Anyway, Mom won't drive this car, she has a good car to drive."

A twenty-dollar car.

The car driven by the eldest in the family is less than ten dollars, how could the old lady be willing to accompany her daughter with a twenty-dollar car?

And the family doesn't have twenty dollars!

"If you don't lack a car, why buy a car?" Shen Mingming said unhappily: "Isn't that a waste of money? Cars don't hold their value. Buying one back is equivalent to second-hand in a day."

"Eldest Uncle, that's not how you say it. Does a dowry depend on whether it holds its value?" Shen Ci asked with a cold tone: "Or is it that you are afraid the car won't hold its value, or do you feel Mom isn't worth it?"

"You child, why are your words so ugly?" The old lady got anxious as soon as she heard it.

"Everyone can say nice words, but the problem is whether they are useful." Shen Ci curled her lips: "What I said is also a fact. People are not Pixiu, they can't think of only entering and not exiting. You think this is ugly? Then I won't say the uglier ones."

People at the table looked at each other. In their impression, Shen Ci was quite obedient when she was a child, why is she so strong now?

Shen Jingjing didn't stop her daughter. No matter when, she was on the same front as her daughter.

So she followed her daughter's words and said: "Mom, I don't need a dowry, and I don't need a betrothal gift, because I don't lack them either."

Not wanting to make things awkward on the first day back, she took the opportunity to stand up, walked to the sofa, and took out a stack of red envelopes from her bag.

Returning to the table, she distributed them directly to the juniors: "Come, Dabao, Erbao, Taotao, red envelopes from Eldest Aunt, Xiaobao has one too."

Several children were naturally heartless, and were very happy to see the red envelopes.

Zheng Hong and Wang Chunyan also had smiles on their faces, hurriedly letting the children thank their Eldest Aunt, especially Wang Chunyan, who had many children and many red envelopes.

However, Zheng Hong had a plan in her heart and would definitely not be serious about these small details, saying happily: "Eldest sister, look at you, it's not a holiday, why give red envelopes to the children."

Shen Jingjing smiled and said: "I haven't come back for the New Year for several years. Seeing that the children have grown up, these red envelopes are from me and Yingying, all for the children, to be used as pocket money."

Saying this, she went to get another red gift bag and handed it to the old lady: "Mom, this is bought for you."

The old lady was still angry because of what happened just now. Seeing her daughter hand the thing to her, she was still a bit reluctant to take it: "I don't lack anything, your eldest brother bought it for me..."

Saying this, the old lady took out the things inside. There were three boxes. As soon as she opened one, the old lady shut up.
