"My mother earns quite a lot of money, so she can contribute more to your allowance. Everyone will share your dical expenses equally. Quote an amount," Qiao i said. "Then... I want 80 dollars a month," Old Madam Xu said after so thought.

Qiao i wrote down the amount. She thought that Old Madam Xu would ask for a lot more. It seed that they did not know how much Li Gui could make in a month.

"Alright, you can sign it now." Qiao i placed the contract in front of Old Madam Xu. The old woman was illiterate, so Qiao i pushed it to Xu Tian and asked him to help check if there was any issue.

Xu Tian was a businessman. He quickly realized that the contract was flawless and he could not find any issues with it at all. In fact, there was no room for his family to negotiate.

"Wait! Let find a witness!" Qiao i said.

"Witness? Do we need to be that formal? We're all family, so there's no need for a witness," Old Madam Xu said.

"No, we have to have a witness. All contracts need witnesses. Back in the village, we even need to get the most prestigious person in the village to be the witness. I don't know what kind of rules your family follows," Qiao i said disdainfully.

Xu Tian and Old Madam Xu could not refute her, so they could only agree with what she said. Qiao i asked the chef in the kitchen to co over and said, "This is our chef. He'll be the witness this ti."

Both parties signed the contract and the chef also signed as the witness. After having a drink together, he left the room and the matter was considered settled.

"Alright, let's eat now," Xu Tian said.

Qiao i imdiately said, "Wait! There's still an issue!"

The Xu family put down their bowls and chopsticks again and waited quietly for Qiao i to speak. Xu Tian had never felt so frustrated before. How could Qiao i have so many issues! "How many betrothal gifts will you need when you get married in the future? What about the house? Are you going to settle your work matters yourself?" Qiao i looked at Xu Hang and asked.

"I'll listen to my father," Xu Hang said evenly.

Qiao i nodded in appreciation. Xu Hang was a good seedling. In comparison, Xu Cai seed to be the brainless one.

"What about you? What about your dowry? Do you have any plans for the future?" Qiao i turned to look at Xu Cai and asked.

"I don't want to discuss my issues with you!" Xu Cai said in annoyance.

"I definitely have no intention of coveting Li Gui's assets! All the expenses for my children's weddings and the future household expenses will be paid by ! Whatever you're worried about will not happen," Xu Ba said as he repeated his promises.

These were all small matters. Qiao i only wanted to highlight this to Xu Ba. After all, after they got married, Xu Ba's children would be considered Li Gui's children. It was only right for her to contribute a share to their betrothal gifts and dowry, provided that these two children were willing to get along with her.

Xu Ba's own family mbers did not change their expressions, but the expressions of the older son's family mbers and Old Madam Xu clearly looked odd now. It was as if they had suffered a huge loss. They were doing all this for Li Gui's money and house! If they could not get any of these, then what was the point of Xu Ba marrying Li Gui!

"Since everything has been discussed, let's talk about the wedding date! Which date is good for you? How about next month? Since Xu Ba had held his previous wedding at his current house, it's not auspicious to do it there this ti. I hear that Li Gui also has a house. Let's hold the wedding at Li Gui's house!" Old Madam Xu said.

Xia He raised her eyebrows slightly. This woman had finally revealed her true colors. Old Madam Xu was indeed eyeing Li Gui's small house.

"That house is where my younger siblings live. It's not convenient," Qiao i said.

"Then we can use another house! You definitely don't just have one house!" Old Madam Xu probed.

"Indeed that's true, but they've all been rented out. I don't think there's anything bad about Mr. Xu's house. Whether it's auspicious or not, it's how we look at it," Qiao i said.

"Yes, I don't mind," Li Gui echoed.

"That... that's fine too. What about the date? How about next month?" Old Madam Xu asked again.

"There's no hurry. I am only agreeable to let Mr. Xu date my mother, not for them to get married. Let's give more thought to this," Qiao i said.

"But... but the two of them have already dated for so long. People will gossip!" Old Madam Xu said.

In this era, if one did not get married after dating for a few months, the neighbors would surely say that there was sothing wrong with one of them. Sotis, there would be even more bizarre rumors spreading around.

After all, very few people owned a television set and there was no cell phone. People had very few forms of entertainnt and could only amuse themselves with these fabricated gossip. Furthermore, no one could control what others said, so people simply said whatever they wanted.
