"Tingting, can you tell your parents about it, the bride price is a little less, if my uncle and I give you 180,000 yuan, Zhao Yong's two sisters-in-law will not have to skin us alive!"
When I revealed the bride price standard on our side to my prospective in-laws, the prospective mother-in-law begged me vigorously.
"Auntie, don't worry, I will tell my parents." I said yes very happily.
In my opinion, as long as a man and a woman really love each other when they get married, nothing else is a problem.
However, when I told my parents about these words, my mother first disagreed: "No, the bride price represents the man's attitude." Besides, who wants a small bride price on our side, as if the girl is worthless. ”
My dad also chimed in: "Yes, girl, no matter what, the bride price still has to be paid by the man's family."
Besides, the bride price we want will definitely let you take it all back when you get married. Not only that, but we also have a dowry for you. ”
My dad said and secretly stretched out 2 fingers.
Looking at it this way, it is a little fair, Zhao Yong's family paid 180,000 dowry, and my family sent 200,000 yuan to marry, and the parents of both men and women were equal.
"I'll talk to Zhao Yong's parents again." I said without confidence.

That night, after I told Zhao Yong about this, he reacted to me and thought it was quite reasonable.
"But...... On my parents' side, it's better for you to talk about it......" Zhao Yong said in a hesitant manner.
I know what he means, but in fact, his parents are quite open-minded, mainly because he has two sisters-in-law at home.
Listening to Zhao Yong, when his two sisters-in-law got married, they only asked for a bride price of 50,000 yuan.
We have increased several times at once, and the sisters-in-law are definitely unwilling.
But that was 10 years ago, is there a comparison between this time and that time?
The next day, I went to Zhao Yong's house again. My sisters-in-law were there, so I told them what my parents had to say.
"Uncle and aunt, in this way, my family will spend a lot of money to marry a girl than your family to marry a daughter-in-law!"
I thought that what I said was quite reasonable, but who knew that Zhao Yong's sister-in-law interjected: "Tingting, what you said is wrong, we have 3 children in our family, and you are a girl in your family, can you compare?" ”
"If you want me to say, we will pay 100,000 dowry, and your family will give 300,000 dowry."
It's just 3 times the difference, and my sister-in-law's abacus is quite accurate!

I don't really care about how much bride price there is, but how awkward I listen to my sister-in-law's words.
So, I scolded her: "No matter what, the 180,000 bride price can't be changed, as for the marriage!" My family plus 3 times is. ”
If you want to talk about the skin and the heart, I'm not far behind.
Seeing this, the second sister-in-law hurriedly stepped forward, seemingly persuading peace, but in fact it was more selfish: "Tingting, sister-in-law speaks a little straight, don't be like her." However, if you want so much bride price, what should my sister-in-law and I do? ”
What to do? Cold!
Why, I still want my in-laws to make up for you! I thought to myself.
Unexpectedly, the second sister-in-law just came to the next sentence: "Mom and Dad, why don't you make up for me and my sister-in-law?" ”
Oops! That's what it means!
Not to mention whether the prospective in-laws have the financial resources, it seems unreasonable to just make up for this matter afterwards.
The prospective in-laws saw that our three concubines were unhappy because of the bride price.
hurriedly stepped forward to reconcile: "Tingting, in this way, you can discuss it with your parents again!" ”

Discussion must be discussed, but the premise is that my parents can't discuss it either!
"No, no matter what, I want 180,000, which is our local standard. This price is already a small amount, and it can't be less. ”
My mom was resolute.
The two sisters-in-law on the prospective in-laws also made a fuss.
Zhao Yong and I are caught in the middle, and what we do is not right.
My mind was hot, and I said casually: "This marriage, we will not get married." ”
Who knows, Zhao Yong's sister-in-law followed up and said: "It's just right not to get married, and my in-laws don't have to spend this money!" ”
The second sister-in-law also chimed in.
Look at who these are! It's obviously a family, but they have their own ghosts.
When I came home and saw my parents, I was in a worse mood, because they were old and stubborn, and they talked about rules and standards every day.
"Mom and Dad, or I won't get married! It's not interesting at all, the sisters-in-law over there are embarrassing me, and so are you here. ”
I said weakly.

It is said that marriage is a matter of two families, and this is true.
"Tell us, what's wrong with them?"
I told my parents about Zhao Yong's house.
"Mom and Dad, it's not easy for Zhao Yong's parents, he has three children......" Before I finished speaking, my mother interrupted me.
"Tingting, Zhao Yong's family can't be married!" My mom said solemnly.
I was confused, my mother always said that Zhao Yong was steady, down-to-earth, motivated, and a good man, and the two in-laws were simple, open-minded, capable, and good elders.
I was blessed to meet them.
"Tingting, when it comes to your marriage, it stands to reason that Zhao Yong's sisters-in-law should have money to contribute and make a strong contribution. Either way, they are a family, and they should be united. ”
"Look at them now, they are very selfish one by one, and they are not married yet! When you really get married in the future, it involves confinement, childcare, hospitalization, pension, etc., then the family is a battlefield, and there are constant disputes all day long. ”
My mom said this to me as a thriller, I still really have long hair, short knowledge, and it is too easy to think about problems.

Now, my sisters-in-law treat me like this, and I won't get even worse in the future!
I am the only child in my family, I have been spoiled by my parents since I was a child, and there are too few twists and turns in my head.
At night, I lay in bed and reminisced about the past.
It seems that since I fell in love with Zhao Yong, every time I went to his house, his sisters-in-law did talk openly and secretly, but I didn't care about it at that time.
Marriage is a woman's second reincarnation, and once you choose the wrong one, it may be for life.
I'm a simple-minded person, and I don't seem to be suitable for house fighting.
So, he immediately made a call to Zhao Yong: "180,000 dowry, not a penny less." If your sisters-in-law can accept it, we will get married, if not, we will end here. ”
Even if the marriage doesn't work out, you have to find a suitable reason!
A few days later, Zhao Yong called me back, but his parents didn't agree, but the sisters-in-law didn't agree. Just what my parents expected.
Zhao Yong's sisters-in-law are really amazing. Over the years they have been married, the prospective in-laws have brought them babies, helped them buy houses, and even funded their respective families.
When it comes to the matter of the little uncle, they are still so selfish.
Forget it, I don't want such a concubine. As for Zhao Yong, I hope he can find a powerful girl in the future and tear it up with the concubines!
I'll withdraw early!
What would you do if you were in such a situation?
