I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Seeing this, Su Mo quickly dodged the broom that Granny Liu swung at her, then snatched the broom and threw it on the ground.

"Grandma, how old am I? How dare you try to hit me? I call you Grandma now out of respect. Don't push your luck. I'm telling you right now, not a single penny less of my dowry money is to be given. You, Su Tao, have to give me exactly what you prepared!"

After saying that, Su Mo turned around and went into the house, slamming the door shut.

Granny Liu was stunned when she heard this. It was true that she accepted the one tael of silver from Su Feng as a betrothal gift to take advantage of him, but she never thought of preparing a dowry for Su Mo!

Besides, Su Tao's betrothal gift was two taels of silver, and she received one tael of silver as dowry. In this way, she actually made a profit of one tael. But Su Mo only had one tael of silver as betrothal gift, yet she wanted to ask her for one tael of silver as dowry. Wouldn't she have gotten nothing and have to support her for so many days for nothing?

Thinking about Granny Liu, he felt increasingly cheated. Turning his head, he met Lin's calculating gaze and couldn't help but glare at her.

"What are you standing there for? What are you looking at? All you do is watch the show! Have all the servants at home finished their work?"

Lin was already planning how to talk to Granny Liu about dividing the family property, but she didn't expect Granny Liu to take her anger out on her. Could it be that this old woman really thought she was easy to fool?

If I don't separate from her soon, Su Mo will need a dowry when she gets married, and Su Songchuan will need a lot of money and betrothal gifts to arrange the wedding.

Just thinking about it made Lin feel a pang of heartache. All the money she and her third son had worked so hard to earn had gone to these people, and she hadn't even gotten a penny for herself. Wasn't that a huge loss? Thinking this, Lin gritted her teeth and looked at Granny Liu, saying:

"Mother, I still want to talk to you about the division of the family property."

Granny Liu had originally intended to go back to her room to rest and catch her breath, but it was clear that Lin was also disobedient, insisting on bringing up the matter of dividing the family property at this critical juncture, truly not wanting to leave her any way out.

If Su Songchuan really marries the eldest daughter of the Li family, he will become a live-in son-in-law, and Su Songchuan will already be one son less.

But now this third daughter-in-law is still clamoring to separate the family property, so in that case, I'll just have to live with the eldest son's family.

If I'm young and able to work, it's not so bad. But when I get older and my legs and feet become weak, my family will inevitably get tired of me.

Besides, the eldest son's family had it tough too. After Su Tao got married, Su Ye and his wife had finally made it through the tough times.

But who would have thought that Su Ye was so restless, actually bringing back Li Ayu. The baby in her belly is due soon, and there will be a lot of work to do then, and he will have a lot to worry about in the future.

If we really rely on our eldest son's family to survive when we get old, wouldn't we not even be able to afford a full meal?

Therefore, Granny Liu would never agree to separate from the third branch of the family, no matter what.

"Don't even think about dividing the family property, not in this lifetime, unless your father and I die!"

After saying that, Granny Liu turned around and went into the house, slamming the door shut with a loud "bang".

As Lin watched Liu Pozi's retreating figure, she grew increasingly anxious. The Su family had many expenses right now, and if she didn't hurry up and get the money back into her hands, she wouldn't be able to get a single penny in the future.

But judging from Granny Liu's imposing manner, she was certain that she would never separate from her family. Thinking this, Lin lost all interest in making candied hawthorns and went straight into the house to discuss countermeasures with Su Congxian.

"Congxin, stop what you're doing and come sit down to talk to me."

Su Congxian was still busy tidying up inside when he saw his wife rushing in. He quickly put down what he was doing and asked, puzzled:

"What's wrong, honey? Who's upset you this time?"

As he spoke, Su Congxian hurriedly took out a teapot and poured a cup of water for Madam Lin.

Lin took the water glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Didn't you hear the noise in the yard just now? You're the kind of person who can keep your composure, but you didn't even come out to check when there was such a loud noise outside."

Su Congxian looked at Lin Shi with a wronged expression.

"Didn't you just tell me to stay inside and pack my things? How could I dare to go out like this?"

Lin glared at Su Congxian impatiently.

"You've become quite obedient now."

Su Congxian quickly sat down and poured Lin a glass of water, saying with a smile:

"Wife, don't you know me? I've always been an obedient person."

Lin took the water glass, sighed, and said:

“If you were truly an obedient person, then you should have taken my suggestion about separating from your mother to heart. I just mentioned it to your mother again, and she looked like she wanted to devour me.”

Upon hearing Lin's words, Su Congxian shook his head helplessly.

"You know my mother, she's always been stubborn. If she doesn't agree, no one can change her mind. I think you should give up on the idea of ​​dividing the family property as soon as possible."

Seeing that Su Congxian was actually siding with Granny Liu, Madam Lin slammed her hand on the table and angrily said:

“I told you you’re stupid and you didn’t believe me. Now that everyone has arranged the marriage for your fourth brother, once the betrothal money is paid and the wedding is held, there won’t be much left in the family. And Su Mo has already separated from the old Su family, and now she’s thinking of asking your mother for a dowry!”

Upon hearing this, Su Congxian slammed his hand on the table.

"What! How dare Su Mo ask my mother for a dowry! Their second branch of the family separated a long time ago, and they're living such a wonderful life now, yet they still have the nerve to come and ask my mother for a dowry."

As Su Congxian was about to get up and go out to confront Su Mo, Lin Shi quickly grabbed his arm and glared at him.

"You really are brainless! If your mother hadn't accepted the one tael of silver betrothal gift from Su Feng, why would Su Mo be asking your mother for her dowry money now!"

As she spoke, Madam Lin pulled Su Congxian down to sit.

“We still need Su Mo’s candied hawthorn skills to make money. If you anger her now, our newly created way to make money will be gone. Can you use your brain in the future?”

Upon hearing this, Su Congxian scratched his head and said somewhat awkwardly:

"That makes sense, but my mother only has so much money. If she gives some to this person and some to that person, won't our family end up with nothing?"
