Chapter 402
Tao Laosan spent the fifty taels and had nothing left.
Aunt Tao was angry and anxious, turned around and went into the house and took a mallet and waved it at him, "You thing that is not enough to achieve things and more than to fail, I will kill you today!"
Tao Laosan immediately got up and hid backwards, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Isn't that silver for me to spend?! How can you hit me?!
Aunt Tao trembled, took a few deep breaths, lifted the mallet and pointed at him, and said, "That silver was given to us by Master He to take a concubine!"
Tao Laosan hid behind the wall of his house, poked his head out and said, "I know, it's the money from selling the eldest sister."
Aunt Tao said angrily: "But your eldest sister is not at home now, we can only return the money to the He family!"
Tao Laosan touched the back of his head and said confusedly: "Mother, you can find the eldest sister and send it to Master He."
Aunt Tao threw the mallet in her hand to the ground, "If I can get her back, do I still need to return the silver?!"
Tao Laosan said seriously: "What do you mean that you can't find it back, she is your daughter, won't you bring her back?"
Tao Meiyu came out of the house and said while crying: "The Zhou family knows about our beating of the eldest sister and does not allow us to take her away from the Zhou family."
"And the eldest sister has already made a marriage with the Zhou family before, and she won't let us send it to the He family again!"
Tao Laosan also understood when he heard it, stood up and patted his chest and said: "I went to the Zhou family to ask for someone, no matter what, it was also my eldest sister, they haven't married yet, how can they detain my eldest sister at home, and even if they are married, then we will be given a dowry first!"
Aunt Tao gradually calmed down when she heard the word dowry, "Yes, dowry, if the Zhou family wants to marry my daughter, they have to give me a dowry." A
smile spread across her face.
At this time, the second eldest child of the Tao family came from the house, "Mother, people gave a dowry, and you also have to give a dowry, how much dowry have you left for the eldest sister over the years?"
Aunt Tao snorted coldly, "Dowry? She eats mine, wears me, and wants a dowry for so many years! Delusion! The
second child of the Tao family's face sank.
Aunt Tao turned around and entered the house with a smile, and said with a smile while looking for clothes: "I'm going to Zhou's house to talk about the dowry, and I can't marry my daughter for nothing."
Tao Meiyu said pitifully on the side: "Mother, is the marriage between the eldest sister and the Zhou family really so decided?" Am I really not going to have a chance to marry the Zhou family?
Aunt Tao sighed and said: "Meiyu, you have no fate with that Zhou Gongzi, don't think about it anymore, my mother will find you a good family in the future."
As she spoke, she picked up a maroon garment and hurriedly changed into it.
Aunt Tao is not only spicy, but also very thick-skinned, and she was making a lot of noise at Zhou's house a few days ago, but now she wants to go to Zhou's house to ask for a dowry.
However, Aunt Tao had just gone out when the Zhou family came.
It was Du Bangchun who came, she came to be hired, and she also brought a letter of severance.
Aunt Tao was startled at first, and then greeted her with a smile, "Shopkeeper Du, who are you?"
Du Bangchun let the person behind him carry a red box in, "I'm here to hire my fifth brother."
Aunt Tao looked at the big red box and was very happy, "Hire, good hire."
Du Bangchun then took out a letter of renunciation from his arms and put it on the top of the box, "Mrs. Tao, before accepting the dowry, you have to sign this."
Aunt Tao looked at the piece of paper, her face full of doubts.
She didn't read much, she only recognized the word.
"What kind of book is this?"
"Yes, the letter of dismemberment." The second child of the Tao family slowly walked out of it.
He took the letter of severance in his hand, and without waiting for Aunt Tao to react, he signed his father's name on it.
Aunt Tao stretched out her hand to grab it, "What a letter of severance." The
second elder of the Tao family said with a calm face: "Today, I received this dowry and signed this letter of severance, and in the future, my eldest sister and you and father will have nothing to do with our entire family."
"What do you mean to have nothing to do with it anymore?" Aunt Tao asked with wide eyes.
The second elder of the Tao family handed over the signed letter of severance to Du Bangchun, "In the future, whether the eldest sister is poor or rich, it has nothing to do with our family, and our family, whether it is life or death, has nothing to do with our eldest sister."
Aunt Tao frowned, and complained to the second child of the Tao family: "How can you just sign it like this, what if your eldest sister is really developed in the future?!" The
second elder of the Tao family said slowly: "Mother, you can sell her for fifty taels of silver, don't think that she will come to you again to fulfill your filial piety!"
Aunt Tao was unconvinced: "She was born by me, and my life was given by me, why can't I do my filial piety?!" The
second child of the Tao family showed a mocking smile towards his mother: "Mother, although you gave her a life, but you almost beat her to death, and now her life was saved by the Zhou family, so naturally it has nothing to do with you."
Aunt Tao was speechless for a while, and wanted to refute, Tao Laosan came over and said: "Mother, forget it, the eldest sister can exchange such a dowry, we have already earned it, and if there is nothing to do with it in the future, we will not have her as a person, otherwise you will accept the dowry, and you have to give her a sum of silver as a dowry."
Aunt Tao was silent, and after thinking about it in her mind, she gritted her teeth and responded: "Shopkeeper Du, you can take away the letter of breaking off relatives, and we will not have any more dealings with Tao Yaofang in the future!" I won't get married to your Zhou family. "
