Chapter 73 After the Fall of the First Beauty (3)
Miss Jiang was ignored, and Miss Jiang San and Miss Jiang Si were able to foresee their future.
This made them unable to bear it anymore. But there were even more unbearable things. As the daughters of the family, one is like a pearl and the others are like dust, which is not enough! Yu is ambitious and wants to marry his daughter to the prince!
In order to make up for the gap in family background, Yu even proposed that she was willing to pay a dowry of millions!
Where can the Marquis of Pingjiang Mansion give a million-dollar dowry?
Among them, half of them were Yu's dowry - the rich and wealthy family of the Yu family. Otherwise, how could they marry into the Marquis' Mansion as the daughter of the Shang family? The other half was the property that Yu proposed to have obtained from the large house. Her husband was the eldest son of the Marquis' Mansion. According to the law, he should have inherited 70% of the property of the Marquis' Mansion. Now he only takes 30% of the property, so he has to count all the property and give it to their only beloved daughter as a dowry!
Logically speaking, Yu's statement is correct, this is what the original owner deserves.
But can you get what you deserve?
"A girl, if we can give a dowry of 20,000 taels, it is considered to be a kindness and righteousness, one million? Are you crazy, Yu?" The old lady made the final decision in a cold manner.
Yu's plan affected the interests of the entire Pingjiang Marquis' Mansion.
Therefore, the original owner's marriage was cannon fodder.
Let’s not talk about princes, then the prince, young general, and Jinshi who are more promising at first glance are not married to them!
The only ones that the original owner could marry were the legitimate son of the Bo Mansion who was going downhill, the unfair illegitimate son of the Duke's mansion, and the illegitimate son of the prince's mansion...
Picking a slightly less trashed person from the garbage is the man the original owner married in his previous life.
But what can she do with her parents’ orders and the matchmaker’s words?
Her original reputation as "the first beauty" was created by Yu's family and promoted the consequences; she later married Ying Er, which was a marriage signed by her sick father for filial piety...
A weak father, a mother with a strong desire to win, a cruel and cold aunt, a crazy and jealous sister, and a grandmother who prefers boys over girls! They all led to such a result, and met a mediocre and incompetent husband...
The original owner's tragic life is really not innocent. She complains about everyone, but she dare not complain.
But Yun Xi is different.
Yun Xi looked at Yu and waved her hand and said, "Don't say anything. No matter what, Jiang Rumi will marry well. She is our eldest daughter and a future father."
"But she is not as good as you..."
"Then her father is better than mine."
In this damn world, isn’t it just that a woman lives well, relying on her father, brother, and son?
Just like her, Yu's three things are nothing to rely on.
However, she was even worse than Yu. Yu was not good at being a husband and had no son, but her father and brother were still very powerful in Jiangnan, and she gave her a lot of dowry. However, the status of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce was too different from that of the Hou Mansion, and she could not support her, which made her angry everywhere.
But she is really not good at father and has no brothers. According to the original plot, her son is also a char siu.
Yu's reputation as the "No. 1 Beauty" made by spending money and finding connections for her is quite intimidating, but in fact it is all about mirrors and water.
In a patriarchal society, only men who hold power are the fundamental ones.
Just two women, who want to become winners in life with their own scheming methods? Dream!
