"You... what did you say? This... this is not the betrothal gift?" Grandma Bai asked in a daze.

"Of course, this is not a betrothal gift! This is a gift I gave to Xiao Xue! An engagent gift!" Zhang Yuan repeated, and then asked the equally stunned team leader, "Team Leader, if I rember correctly, in our Chaoyang Commune, marrying a wife usually costs about eight to ten yuan, right?"

The team leader nodded blankly, "Yes! Yes, indeed!"

"Exactly, at most it’s ten yuan!" Wang Xuehua added another sentence.

Zhang Yuan then walked over to Bai Daliang, bowed, and said, "Uncle! I’m asking for Xiao Xue’s hand in marriage. Do you agree to a ten-yuan bride price?"

Bai Daliang stamred, "I-I agree!"

"Grandma! Did you hear that? Xiao Xue’s father has agreed to the bride price! I will present the ten yuan betrothal gift in full when we get married!"

In the end, the bride price was set at ten yuan, but it will be given at the ti of marriage, not now.

Without waiting for Grandma Bai’s reaction, Zhang Yuan turned back to Bai Xue.

At this mont, Bai Xue was smiling sweetly at him, Zhang Yuan’s move brought great relief to her.

Earlier, she was busy comforting and stopping the small crowd from erupting and didn’t have ti to confront Grandma Bai personally.

"Xiao Xue, hold out your hand!" Zhang Yuan said in an indulgent and gentle tone.

Bai Xue obediently held out her hand, and Zhang Yuan took out a delicate box from his pocket, opening it in front of everyone, revealing a brand-new watch.

Bai Xue didn’t understand much about watches from this era, but a watch was a rare item during this ti, more precious than a bicycle or sewing machine.

Even with money, you couldn’t buy it unless you had power and status.

At this mont, she suddenly realized Zhang Yuan was not simple, how could a re young intellectual obtain these?

"Xiao Xue, do you like it?" Zhang Yuan had already put the watch on Bai Xue’s wrist; seeing her in a daze, he cautiously asked, thinking she didn’t like it.

"Elder Sister, what are you daydreaming about? Brother-in-law is talking to you!" Bai Ruxia nudged Bai Xue, and she ca to her senses.

"I like it!" Bai Xue smiled broadly, who cares about his identity now, he’s her husband, recognized as the Heavenly Destiny by the supermarket space, it couldn’t be wrong.

"No! I disagree!" After a long while, Grandma Bai finally ca to her senses, scread, and ran forward intending to take the watch from Bai Xue’s hand, but Bai Xue dodged, making her furious.

"I disagree with a ten-yuan bride price! We’re not approving this engagent!" Grandma Bai viciously glared at Zhang Yuan.

Without waiting for anyone to respond, Bai Xue spoke, "Grandma! Marriage is the parents’ command and the matchmaker’s word! If my dad agrees, then the engagent is set, you disagreeing is useless!"

"Your dad’s word doesn’t count!" Grandma Bai was rendered speechless by Bai Xue, "Old man, why don’t you say sothing!" She turned to BraveSoul Bai for help.

"If her dad’s word doesn’t count, whose does? Aren’t you done causing a scene? The youngsters are just exchanging a gift, yet here you are as an old lady causing a fuss! A ten-yuan bride price and you still think it’s low? Isn’t that the usual for all brides? Or did you raise your girl on golden beans?" The team leader stepped forward and loudly spoke.

"Oh team leader, now that’s not right, this girl Xiao Xue, her grandma never raised her, she was separated to live on her own not long after she was born!" Third Granny remarked with a hint of mockery.

The aning was clear, you didn’t raise her, and now she’s getting married, yet you dare demand a bride price, where do you get the face for that?

"Exactly, when the children were hungry and couldn’t sleep all night, Grandma Bai never ca with anything! Even when the daughter-in-law was about to give birth, she took all the grain! How does such a grandma have the nerve to demand a bride price here?" Grandma Zhao finally couldn’t hold back. She knew she couldn’t out-argue or outfight Grandma Bai, but she couldn’t help but voice so hard facts.

"You two old biddies, shut up! What does this have to do with you? Didn’t I raise her dad? Without her dad, where would she co from?" Grandma Bai saw that her old man had put on a stern face and wasn’t speaking again, realizing this battle was left to her alone!

That wretched Li Guihua was hopeless, ssing things up the mont she opened her mouth.

And her own son, always rushing forward for benefits, yet hiding at a ti like this.

"Grandma Bai, do you believe I won’t send you to the rectification office if you curse once more? You’re spoiling the ethos of our Fifth Team!" The team leader, exasperated, pointed at Grandma Bai and yelled.

"Team leader, you can’t be unreasonable! They cursed first, what wrong have I done? As a grandmother, can’t I ask for my granddaughter’s bride price?"

"What they said is all true, go out and ask around, who doesn’t know what you’ve done? If it were , I’d hide far away, too ashad to face anyone! Still wanting a bride price?"

The team leader originally didn’t want to argue with wonfolk, but seeing Grandma Bai’s unreasonable, shrewish behavior made him angry.

"Grandma, to put it seriously, raising my dad has nothing to do with , that’s your duty! Besides, we’ve long been split into separate households. Legally, my guardians are only my parents! We’re a generation apart! You have no right to interfere with my marriage! But I’m not an ungrateful person! I won’t deny you as my grandma, isn’t it just a bride price you want? In view of the fact that you raised my dad, I will show so respect when I get married! However, if you continue to make a scene! Then you are not welco at our ho! On such a joyous day of engagent, everyone is waiting to feast!" Bai Xue explained, leaving even the team leader stunned. Those who had studied were indeed different, understanding the law, while these rough peasants didn’t even know what law ant.

"You dead girl, you... I’ll... I’ll kill you!" Grandma Bai, saying this, tried to rush over.

"Enough! Enough with the nonsense! What does this look like?" Bai Sr., who had been watching coldly, finally spoke, stopping the shrewish Grandma Bai in her tracks.

He might have realized by now that there’s no getting back those things today, so he stopped his wife from making a scene lest it leave them without food! The family hadn’t eaten for two als.

"Old man..." Grandma Bai still felt unwilling.

"Shut up! Get inside and eat!" Bai Sr.’s stern gaze swept over, and Grandma Bai didn’t dare make another scene, glaring fiercely at Bai Xue, then gritting her teeth at Bai Daliang.

"My well-raised son, you’ve let this worthless girl curse your mother like this, and you say nothing? Coward, you can’t even control your own daughter! Letting her fool around with soone so young! Ruining our Bai Family’s reputation!"

"Grandma, if you think like that, we can break off relations, from now on we’re not part of your Bai Family, we’re not the sa Bai!" Bai Xue quickly spoke, seeing her father being scolded like that and saying nothing.

"Worthless girl, shaless thing, break..." Grandma Bai’s cursing was in full swing, just about to say ’break off relations,’ but was stopped by Bai Sr.

"Say one more word, and I’ll break your leg!" Bai Sr. shouted nacingly. He had no wish to cut ties, seeing that the eldest son was now prosperous, and although they couldn’t get benefits now, there would be plenty of ti in the future; cutting ties would be cutting off the only way back for him.
