Chapter 1507: Full Disclosure

Fortunately, she was smart enough to save the money in her own savings account!

“You only earn so little every month, and it’s not even enough for our family. Your brother and sister-in-law are in a difficult situation now, so what if I lend them some money first?” Mrs. Li knew that she could not pretend anymore. “Since you already know, then I’ll tell you directly. There’s no way I’d let you buy a new bike! There’s no money at home either! If you want to buy it, you can work and earn it yourself! ”

“You treat me so well, Mother!”

Li Qing’s eyes turned red with anger. “Look at the Jiang Family! Jiang Yao isn’t even their biological child! When Jiang Yao got married, how much was her dowry? How many people in the county had as many dowries as hers? I’m your biological child. You only know how to take money from me to give to my brother and his wife! I’d rather live life as someone else’s adopted daughter!”

The Lu family had given a lot of betrothal gifts to the Jiang family back then. The Jiang family had exchanged everything they could for something else. When Jiang Yao got married, they let Jiang Yao take those as her dowry.

The Jiang family gave Jiang Yao the watch and radio that the Lu family had sent them. They had sold the sewing machine and bicycle for some money and gave them to Jiang Yao as dowry.

Jiang Yao had so many dowries when she got married that all the women in the village were envious of her. However, at the same time, many people were secretly laughing at the Jiang family for being silly and raising a daughter for nothing. They did not even know to keep some of the dowries for themselves.

Mrs. Li did not feel guilty at all after being criticized by her daughter. In her opinion, the Jiang family was stupid, and what she had done was justified.

Mrs. Li sneered. “If you’re envious of the Jiang family’s daughter, then it’s too bad that you’re my daughter.”

Then, Mrs. Li’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Oh, right! How could we forget that Jiang Yao’s dowry included a bicycle? Your aunt and uncle have their own bicycles. Why would they use their daughter-in-law’s dowry? Then wouldn’t Jiang Yao’s bicycle be left at home without anyone to use it? We’ll come back tomorrow and ask your aunt to lend you Jiang Yao’s bicycle!”

Li Qing was delighted, but she was a little doubtful. “Will Auntie lend it to us? Even if she agrees, Jiang Yao might now! That’s her dowry!”

“It’s not like we’re asking them to give it away for free! It’s our business how long we’d want to keep it for. Even if it’s Jiang Yao’s dowry, since she has already married into the Lu family, won’t the dowry become the Lu family’s? Do you think your aunt would dare to disagree? Just wait and see!” Mrs. Li was very confident about it.

Mr. and Mrs. Lu were lecturing their son and daughter-in-law. They had no idea other people were discussing their family’s dowry.

Mrs. Lu was so angry that her fingers kept tapping on Jiang Yao’s head. “So, you didn’t go to class when school started because you went on a mission with Xingzhi? You must be competent! You’ve deceived your family to be a heroine. Why don’t you just risk your life? Why would you come home to recuperate after getting injured so severely?”

Mrs. Lu was so angry that she did not know what to say. After scolding Jiang Yao, she turned around to scold Lu Xingzhi. She raised her hand and hit Lu Xingzhi’s head. “You’re impressive too. You performed meritorious deeds on your own and even brought your wife with you. Are you still a man? You want to bring her along? You can’t even protect your wife well. Are you two trying to kill us with these stunts?”
