Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 551: Chapter 551: The Issue of Dowry

Seeing that Qiao Xiaomai had made up her mind, Qiao Changshun sighed.

Well, that had touched a chord with him. Although Qiao Xiaomai had more choices now, if she married and moved somewhere else, leaving him with just Qiao Dami and Zhuang Luhe, he wouldn’t feel great about it.

“Then, first get the Village Chief Tong to talk upfront about whether Sanlang’s mother lives or dies, it has nothing to do with you.” He advised.

Qiao Xiaomai nodded, “Of course.”

Consequently, when Tong Sanlang came over that night, the definitive response he got was “marry.”

Marry!

At first, upon hearing the word, Tong Sanlang was stunned, then emotions of joy quickly spread from his eyes across his face, soon they engulfed his entire body.

Unconsciously, he stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips, stumbling over his words, “This, this is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!”

“Then go invite your grandfather and father over. Let’s discuss the wedding arrangements.” Qiao Changshun said, standing aside and watching him, his feelings complicated.

When he learned years ago that Zhuang Luhe was to marry him, he was just as ecstatic as a fool.

Upon hearing these words, Tong Sanlang nodded vigorously, lifted his foot and used light steps to fly away.

Qiao Xiaomai watched his handsome figure retreating, silently admonishing to herself, was there any need for him to act so excitedly, she had already agreed to his marriage proposal long ago.

However, she did appreciate his joyful expression.

Soon enough, Tong Tiehu, Tong Xingda, and Tong Sanlang arrived.

Zhu Hongyun and the Qian Family also wanted to join, but were stopped by them.

Both sides sat down under the willow tree, Tong Tiehu stated frankly, “Changsun, the matter of Sanlang’s mother’s sickness can’t wait, how about getting married three days later?”

“In such a hurry?” Qiao Changshun was taken aback.

Qiao Xiaomai was also somewhat surprised, three days later?

Others took several months to prepare for marriage, whereas she had nothing?

“There’s no other way. It’s for good luck; Sanlang’s mother’s health can’t wait.” Tong Tiehu said.

“But wouldn’t this be too unfair on Xiaomai? Just three days, what can she prepare?”

She didn’t insist on having a new house, but she must at least have some furniture, right?

There is also the wedding gown, and Qiao Xiaomai’s dowry, none of this has been prepared yet!

“She doesn’t need to prepare anything, Xiaomai can simply bring two boxes of new clothes when she marries. Keep everything simple. Once Sanlang’s mother improves, and my Tong Family’s days also improve, a new ceremony can be conducted for her and Sanlang.” Tong Tiehu said.

This was also the result of his discussion with Tong Sanlang.

Zhang Family merely wanted money, Qiao Xiaomai would not bring a dowry, saving the possibility of Zhang Family getting greedy and causing trouble.

The women of the Tong Family were traditionally given two wooden boxes when they married; this way, it wouldn’t be necessary for Qiao Xiaomai to make a big show.

“Um…” Qiao Changshun was dumbfounded.

His daughter, Xiaomai, with her current status, shouldn’t she at least have a grand style, even if not extravagant?

Just two wooden boxes?

That had to be a joke!

“Of course, if Xiaomai has things she feels are practical, she can also bring them along. After Sanlang’s mother’s health improves and we separate, they will be the only ones living in the old courtyard. They can keep as many things there as they like.”

“Huh?” Upon hearing this, Qiao Changshun was stunned.

Qiao Xiaomai too was stunned.

This did not align with what Tong Sanlang had previously said.

Tong Sanlang had said before that Tong Tiehu and Qian Family would also live in the old courtyard.

“The newly married couple needs some space. We old folks won’t crowd around them.” Seeing that both father and daughter in the Qiao Family were stunned, Tong Tiehu explained.
