Sun Ailan thought about this and straightened her back, striding boldly into the courtyard.
In the room, Liu Cuilan was tidying the table and didn’t even raise her eyelids upon seeing her: "Sothing up?"
Sun Ailan put on a smile and leaned forward: "Cuilan sis, I’m here to discuss the marriage arrangent between our kids."
Upon hearing this, Liu Cuilan raised her eyebrows: "Didn’t your family disagree with the marriage? If you don’t agree, let’s just leave it, we won’t force it."
While speaking, she was just wiping the table near Sun Ailan and said bluntly: "Excuse ."
Sun Ailan’s smile froze for a mont, feeling like Liu Cuilan seed to dislike her.
But rembering her purpose, she forced herself to smile again.
"Ah, it’s all because of that deadbeat at my ho, always aiming for higher status. Actually, I’ve always liked your Wenbing, he’s good-looking, considerate, and diligent. My Chunyan thinks the sa, but the girl is shy and asked to co and diate." Seeing Liu Cuilan not responding, Sun Ailan continued with a smile, "My Chunyan has been fasting at ho these days, saying she won’t marry anyone but your Wenbing. That’s why I ca here thick-skinned. Look at this ss, why don’t we sit down and discuss this again."
You don’t hit soone with a smiling face, even though Liu Cuilan felt annoyed, since Sun Ailan was speaking nicely to her, she didn’t want to dismiss her, so she threw aside the cloth and pulled a stool over to sit down.
Sun Ailan stared at her, wasn’t she a guest here? Standing the whole ti without being offered a seat?
Just sat down herself without a care?
Should she sit or not?
"Cuilan sis, how about lowering the dowry by a hundred and adding the Three Turns and One Sound?"
Sun Ailan bent slightly to speak to Liu Cuilan, feeling sothing odd.
Liu Cuilan sat on the stool, calmly sipping from an enal mug.
She finally realized the posture between the two, a sitting and standing position, wasn’t it just like in the drama between the empress dowager and the...ugh, personal nanny?
Thinking of this, she twitched her mouth, regardless of Liu Cuilan’s reaction, she pulled over a stool to sit down.
Seeing Liu Cuilan leisurely sipping from the enal mug, she planned to mimic but unfortunately found there wasn’t an extra mug on the table, so she gave up.
She could only cough lightly twice, straightening her back.
No way, can’t lose the stance.
Liu Cuilan put down the enal mug: "Ailan sis, I think let’s just forget about this matter."
Sun Ailan gritted her teeth, this family is truly stingy, she has reduced the dowry from three hundred to a hundred and they are still not satisfied.
After an inner struggle, she spoke again: "Cuilan sis, let’s see about the dowry and the Three Turns and One Sound, whatever you can provide, we won’t be too particular, as long as the two kids can live well."
Liu Cuilan was surprised as she looked at her, previously insisting there would be no marriage without the Three Turns and One Sound and a three hundred dowry, how did Sun Ailan beco so agreeable all of a sudden?
No ulterior motives, just theft or fraud.
This thought just sunk in her mind, when Sun Ailan spoke with a smile: "I think like this, if there’s no dowry, we can do without it. However, my Chunyan has been pampered, can’t do farm work, so can you find her a city job?"
Indeed, she ca for a job, all three of her kids work outside, but the eldest and second are in labor jobs, unsuitable for a girl, the only position to covet is the third one.
One must know that sales clerk at the departnt store is extrely popular these days.
Liu Cuilan refused without thinking: "Sorry, Ailan sis, my husband died early, I’m a widow without much capability, let’s just leave it, let’s say Wenbing can’t afford to aim high."
"Don’t say that, Cuilan sis, think about it, isn’t this also for your family’s benefit? If my Chunyan has a proper job, you could enjoy a good life too, can’t you?"
After a pause, she continued, "As for the job, how about you giving your family’s third child’s job to my Chunyan, eventually she will marry, once out, she belongs to soone else, a daughter can never be as close as a daughter-in-law?"
Liu Cuilan coldly laughed inside, she thinks so beautifully, no matter how far the daughter marries, she is forever her daughter, but a daughter-in-law may not be.
Seeing she’s silent, Sun Ailan assud she was tempted and moved closer: "By the ti Chunyan and Wenbing are married, they both work and earn money, you can help with the child, is there a better life?"
"According to you, I would rather keep my third child’s job for my fourth and fifth children in the future, a son is ultimately family, a daughter-in-law is uncertain."
Liu Cuilan spoke leisurely.
After hearing this, Sun Ailan’s expression changed imdiately: "Ailan sis, how can you say that, a young man working in a departnt store, is it more convenient than a girl?"
Liu Cuilan sneered: "Nowadays, n and won are equal, even departnt store clerks can be n, why not?"
Sun Ailan was stumped, scratching her head, trying to figure out how to persuade, she suddenly heard Liu Cuilan speak.
"Ailan sis, it’s impossible for my third child’s job to be given to soone else, as for the marriage, let’s go back to what we originally discussed. After all, my shrine is too small to support your Chunyan, a big Buddha."
Once Liu Cuilan finished speaking, she took up the cloth to continue wiping the table, a gesture of wanting to send her away.
This woman really doesn’t know how to accept kindness! With her family’s condition, if not her daughter having a good job, who would be interested in her son?
Sun Ailan stood up with a dark face: "Sis, think it over, I’m leaving."
Leaving a sentence, she angrily got up, preparing to leave, but her eyes unconsciously landed on the black-and-white TV on the table.
The Su Family girl has only been working at the departnt store for a few months, and the family already bought a TV. How proud would she be if this job belonged to her daughter?
Thinking about this, she felt slightly unwilling, no way, she can’t miss such a good opportunity.
No need to ntion the other benefits of being a departnt store clerk, even the TV is the first of its kind, spread across the village these days.
Since Liu Cuilan couldn’t be convinced, she’ll approach Su Wenbing instead.
The boy seed to really like her Chunyan, by then let her Chunyan ntion marriage to Su Wenbing, surely the foolish boy will happily agree.
As the saying goes, once married, the man forgets his mother, by then, with a little pillow talk, that Su Family boy will surely obey her Chunyan, not to ntion the TV, even the job will surely belong to her daughter.
