Chapter 1390 Money or Daughter? (2)
"Dad, that's not what you said yesterday..." A young girl walked up to her father and accused him.
"That's what I said yesterday! Originally, I didn't agree to raise you after your mother gave birth to you, but your mother said that I could exchange you for a dowry, so I reluctantly raised you to this age and sent you here to learn skills. Now you have the opportunity to improve your family and get a large dowry. What else are you dissatisfied with? You will marry into such a rich family to enjoy a good life."
The girl's father's words completely shattered her hope.
"Do you all think so?" Ji Xiaomu looked at these parents, their eyes flashing with greed and joy of becoming rich soon.
"Madam, we can't even afford to cook at home..." several women complained.
"So you all want to exchange your daughters for the bride price?" Ji Xiaomu confirmed.
"Madam, that's not the case. We just found a good home for her! We all believe in you and will not harm them." Someone immediately said something nice.
That's what I mean, but I can't really say it out loud.
"Madam, this is the information you want." Bai Yang appeared in front of Ji Xiaomu with the information, scaring everyone.
The girls were already used to it. There was always someone protecting Ji Xiaou and obeying her orders.
Bai Yang is the person who follows Ji Xiaowu most often.
"Yeah." Ji Xiaowu nodded. Bai Yang stood behind her, wary of the girls' parents.
"It seems that you are not telling the truth. You used your money to gamble at the gambling house, and you didn't give all of it to your daughter as a dowry. You even owed the gambling house a large sum of money. So you are waiting for your daughter's dowry to fill the hole in the gambling house for you?"
"Let me see. All the family money was used to help my elder brother get married, but in the end, all the money was saved to build a house for my younger brother. The girl he chose wanted a house, so he wanted to use his daughter's dowry to build a house for his youngest son..."
"Well... this is even more excessive. His parents are starving to the point of being skinny, and he eats a lot of meat and fish every day, but he has no money to prepare a dowry for his daughter. He plans to use his daughter's dowry to marry himself a new wife, and he has even picked out the candidate."
"..."
The girls listened to Ji Xiaowu reading out the news one by one. They knew their family affairs best and were still shocked to hear such news.
They said that their family had no money. It turned out that they were on guard against her. They wanted to use the sad drama to make them take the initiative to ask for a share of the family burden...
The girls felt their hair stand on end as they listened to this, and they shuddered involuntarily.
It turns out that they have always been the excluded ones and never knew the situation at home. No wonder their older and younger brothers always treated them as outsiders when they came home, being polite to them and never being intimate with them.
My daughter will eventually marry off and become an outsider...
They could not escape this fate after all.
"Okay, you want to marry me off in exchange for a dowry. After I get married, I will give the dowry to you, and we will no longer be related to each other." A young girl came out, wiped the tears from her face angrily, and said to her parents.
"Just be aware of this. If anything happens to you in your husband's family in the future, don't come back to us. We can't help you in anything!" The girl's father agreed without saying a word, with a look of disdain on his face.
He didn't like this money-losing girl in the first place. If he really exchanged the betrothal gift, who would care about her life or death?
"What about you?" Another girl also came out and looked at her parents, "Do you mean the same thing?"
