Chapter 198 Dowry(1/2)

Zhou Tao likes Wang Xiaoda more than Wang Dahu. Others are a little afraid of Wang Xiaoda, but Zhou Tao doesn't know why, but he admires Wang Xiaoda when he looks at him.

Moreover, maybe he had a preconceived idea that Brother Da was the most handsome and powerful man he had ever seen.

During the meal, Zhou Tao also sat next to Wang Xiaoda. The juniors themselves were arranged in the back row according to their age. After Wang Xiaoda, he was Zhou Tao.

"Brother Xiao Da, where did you buy this forehead wiper? It's beautiful. I want to buy one too." Zhou Tao looked at Wang Xiaoda like a little fan.

"I bought it at that place on the corner of the street. You can customize it and choose the pattern yourself. I bought it there. I can take you there another day." Wang Xiaoda said with a smile.

He also likes this kid very much. He has an aura similar to his own. He is not so calm, but he can control himself. Among Tianbao's group of friends, he feels that Zhou Tao is more like himself.

In fact, Tianbao is smarter, but unlike his peers, he is always full of reason and lacks the desperate behavior of a young man.

"Then can I buy the same one as yours? I think it looks good."

Wang Xiaoda is already tall and delicate, and with his forehead wipes, he looks even more unruly and restrained. The combination of these two disharmonious temperaments on his body makes him even more attractive.

"Okay, I drew this pattern myself. I will bring the drawings to you another day, or if you have any other favorite styles, I will draw a few more for you and customize them together."

Few people know about that shop, but its business is very good. The shopkeeper’s skills are good, but the price is second to none. Wang Xiaoda’s main reason is that he doesn’t like to be like others.

"Okay, I'm sorry for bothering you, Brother Da. I'll take my rest in a few days and I'll go to Changlefang to find you." Zhou Tao's eyes were bright. He hadn't been to Changlefang yet!

"Okay, I can take you for a walk, and then take you to the shop." Wang Xiaoda said softly.

He could understand the little boy's thoughts. He must be very curious about gambling houses, but since he couldn't go in, he was even more curious.

Take him to see it, so that his curiosity will be saved and he will not go astray in the future. For children at this age, the more adults don't let him do it, he will have to do it. On the contrary, you satisfy his desire

That curiosity will save you from trouble in the future.

After eating, the Wang family went back. Wang Dahu reluctantly looked at Zhou Yan for a few times before following his parents back.

Just before eating, Zhou Yan saw Zhou Tao talking to Wang Xiaoda and couldn't help but feel curious.

"When did you become so familiar with Wang Xiaoda?" Zhou Yan asked curiously.

"We have had dinner together before. Brother Da has been to Sister Yang's house several times. Tianbao and I both like him very much. We have only talked to him a few times and we are relatively familiar with him."

Zhou Yan nodded and didn't say anything. He just felt strange that although Wang Xiaoda seemed to be fine, he always made people feel scared. It was rare that Zhou Tao didn't feel that way and liked him very much.

Zhou Tao had to go to school in the afternoon, so Zhou Yan urged him to go to the house to rest for a while so as not to feel sleepy again in the afternoon.

Zhou Cun's family also went back, leaving only Zhou Shou and Zhou Yan's father and daughter.

"Come here, Yan Yan. Dad will show you this list." Zhou Shou called Zhou Yan to the study and showed her the account book.

"In the past few years, Dad has also made a lot of money outside. These are all account books, and the cash is also deposited in the bank, but it is not much. The much money is circulated in business. And Dad also bought a lot in the town.

Dear, only your uncle knows about this. Now that you are about to get married, dad will make it clear to you..."

Zhou Shou asked Zhou Yan to sit down, then gave her the account book and briefly talked about it.

"Dad, why are you showing me this?"

Zhou Yan looked confused. She was in charge of all the money in the family. She didn't understand her father's outside business and never asked about it. Why did her father show her the account books?

"Let me show you and give you an idea. Dad is impartial. The family's inheritance is divided into three parts. One for you, one for Taotao, and another for Brother A Lin. He and Dad have been busy over the years.

Dad must give him something to find a wife."

Zhou Shou was not stingy even if he said he was stingy. It was not that he was reluctant to part with the money. But he was really reluctant to give it to outsiders. He originally wanted Yan Yan and A Lin to get married, so that the young couple would have one share and Taotao would have one share.

As a result, Yanyan was unwilling and had to divide the things into three parts.

"Dad, keep it for yourself and don't give it to me. Brother A Lin is a man and he must get a share when getting married. The rest will be left to Taotao. I only need a similar dowry when I get married. Where can I find a girl to get married?

You took away your mother's property!" Zhou Yan said with a smile.

Zhou Yan only read one page and was surprised that his father had made so much money over the years. She was happy, but she didn't mean to be greedy.

She is a woman, so when she gets married, she needs to bring some dowry, which is about the same, and she doesn’t need the rest. Taotao is still young, and she will definitely inherit the family business in the future. Brother A Lin has been with his father for so long, and he is also part of their family, so it’s okay to get a share.

should.

"Similarly, I am giving you this dowry so that you can live a well-fed and well-fed life without relying on your husband's family. Moreover, a woman's dowry also gives her confidence in her husband's family."

No matter how good the Wang family is to Yan Yan, it is still the Wang family's business. If he is good to his daughter, he is willing to give his daughter a share of the family property.

"I don't have a dowry, and no one dares to bully me." Zhou Yan couldn't laugh or cry.

"Oh, you girl, why are you so stubborn? Think about it, if you want to buy something after you get married, if you don't have the money yourself, wouldn't you have to ask Wang Dahu for it? Would you reach out for money? If you

You want to buy something for dad or your friend, and it costs a lot of money, so what will you do then?"

Zhou Shou is very anxious, this girl is very stubborn, and there is also a silly girl who gives away money.

Seeing Zhou Yan deep in thought, Zhou Shou continued to persuade him.

"Also, haven't you always thought your sister Yang was awesome? Then she doesn't rely on righteousness to live her life. She has her own shop, so that's the balance."

"What does dad mean, I have to open a shop? But I don't know how!" Zhou Yan admitted that she was tempted. When she mentioned Sister Yang, she felt that what her dad said made sense.

"It doesn't matter, Dad can! Dad will give you a few shops, you can rent some out, and then open a few shops yourself. You can open any shop you like. You just need to do what you like.

Well, for business matters, dad will find you an assistant."

"Ah? Then I just need two shops. I'll try it first. If it doesn't work, I'll just become the shopkeeper and ask others to manage it." Zhou Yan said.

She has never done business and doesn't understand these things. It would be fine if she learned to estimate things, but she doesn't like these things, so she doesn't want to restrict herself. She just likes to make rouge and gouache, and studying these is enough to keep her busy.

"Two shops are not enough. Dad will give you a few more shops. You can open two shops yourself, and then rent out the remaining ones. You can support yourself even by collecting rent every year. How comfortable this feels!"

"

Zhou Shou felt that a daughter should be like this, do what she likes, don't care about money, and then have some options, so that she can have no worries about food and drink for the rest of her life.

"No, no, don't you have to do business yourself? I just want two." Zhou Yan insisted and refused.

His father didn't know how many shops there were, but he felt like they were all for him. And he said it as if this shop was as cheap as Chinese cabbage. God knows, the shops in this town are very expensive!

Zhou Shou insisted on giving it, but Zhou Yan refused to accept it. The two bargained for a while before Zhou Yan was willing to accept four shops, all of which were in good locations, and two of them were next to each other, making it easier to manage.

"That's what the shop said. There is still land. Dad bought dozens of acres of land in the suburbs, but he won't be able to use it for the time being. Dad will give you fifteen acres of land with the deed. Aren't Dahu and the others growing rapeseed?

It can definitely be used, you can use it for him."

If a woman wants to have a status in her husband's family, she must help her husband. Although this is not a sure thing, if a man's business uses his wife's things, then he will definitely be grateful and have certain achievements.

After that, his wife became the hero in his mind.

"Then let me ask Brother Dahu, if he needs it, dad will rent it to him. This is already a convenience. Brothers have to settle accounts clearly. This cannot be given to him for nothing. My daughter is not married yet! But

You can't be this white-eyed wolf with your elbows turned outward."

Zhou Yan is not the kind of person who is carried away by emotions. She will never send all her family's things to her husband's family. This is no different from a white-eyed wolf.

"What I'm saying is, you don't give it to him for free. You give it to him for use. He can't ask for your dowry in vain. You have to talk to him carefully. He may use it for business, but as a man, he can't take your wife's dowry.

He will remember you and will give it to you when the time comes. Anyway, it won’t be in vain."

Zhou Shou is a man. He understands the psychology of a man. Even if he is very poor, he will not live on his wife's dowry. Wang Dahu is not that kind of person, and he believes in him.

"Okay, I don't want any benefits. It's just that the dowry given by my father is too much. Those four shops are enough."

Zhou Yan was helpless. Her father kept trying to give her a dowry. How could anyone in this town marry his daughter with such a big deal?

The shop and the land were settled. Zhou Shou wanted to say something else, but Zhou Yan quickly stopped him.

"Dad, I can only accept so much. If you keep saying it, I won't want anything else. You've been talking for a long time and it will be in vain." Zhou Yan pretended to be angry.

"Chengchengcheng, don't tell me anymore. I'll sort it out and see if there's anything else that hasn't been counted." Zhou Shou had no choice but to accept it as soon as it was ready.

Only then did Zhou Yan feel satisfied. In fact, she knew that her father did this because he loved her, but she really didn't want these things. This was her father's hard work for half his life.

Moreover, at this time, Taotao was still young and her father had to look after him for several years, so there was no need to give her so much.

A few days later, Zhou Tao's school was on vacation, and he went to see Wang Xiaoda as he had said before.

He walked to the gate of Changlefang, feeling a little excited and a little nervous. This is a casino. When most people talk about it, they love it and hate it, envy it and fear it.

For Zhou Tao, he is just a little curious. Boys are always curious about unknown things.

"I'm looking for Wang Xiaoda. My name is Zhou Tao. You go and report. He knows I'm coming."

Zhou Tao mustered up the courage to step forward and spoke to the guard at the door calmly.

"Ah, I know you. Our brother Da has promised that if the young master comes over, he will take you directly to him."

The guard was originally very serious, but when he heard Zhou Tao's words, he smiled and tried to speak gently.

"Okay, thank you, brother guard." Zhou Tao thanked him politely.

The guard said he didn't dare to take the responsibility, so he took Zhou Tao to Wang Xiaoda's place. Brother Da had already confessed, so he didn't dare to be disrespectful.

"This is it. Brother Da is upstairs. In the room on the left, young master, just go in by yourself. Then I will leave."

Zhou Tao nodded, thanked him again, and then went upstairs. He didn't look around just now, but Changlefang was quite lively in broad daylight.

However, only the lobby is more lively, and it is much quieter here. Maybe this building is where little Dago rests!

He was quite happy just now. It turned out that Brother Da remembered what he said and had explained everything in advance.

Zhou Tao climbed upstairs carefully, stood in front of the room on the left, knocked on the door, and Wang Xiaoda called in, so Zhou Tao went in.
