Chapter 329 - 330: Selling Daughter
"Matchmaking? What matchmaking?" Lin Su’er immediately cried out in alarm.
Lin Gang shamelessly said, "Daughter, I have found you a good family to marry into, a millionaire no less. In just two days, they will come to take you. I was planning to look for you tomorrow, but now that you are here, you no longer need to go back."
Lin Su’er angrily said, "What kind of marriage? You didn’t even tell me about it. This is absolutely unacceptable! Absolutely unacceptable!"
Lin Gang glared at her and said, "Nonsense, I am your father. I decide who you marry. I have already agreed with them, and you must marry into their family!"
Song Xiaodong sneered, "You must have sold Su’er for a good price, right?"
Lin Gang’s eyes widened even more as he shouted, "You shut your mouth with your sarcastic remarks. I’m not afraid to tell you, young man, the family I’ve found for Su’er is well-known and respected in our town. If he finds out you’ve been messing with my daughter, you are dead. Leave right now, and I’ll pretend nothing happened. Otherwise... hmph!"
"What if I don’t leave?" Song Xiaodong’s expression darkened. From what Lin Gang said, the family he chose for Lin Su’er was definitely not decent, likely another ruffian like him but a more successful one with money. Forcing Lin Su’er to marry such a person was clearly pushing her into a pit of fire.
He had heard of fathers eager for a large dowry, and even though it was shameful to demand so much, they ought to at least consider whether the man would treat their daughter well, and if she might suffer in the future. It could somewhat be justified, after all, having raised a daughter for so many years, and handing her over, receiving a dowry was a custom passed down through the years.
But for Lin Gang, it was clearly a complete sale of his daughter, totally disregarding what her future would be like. That was just too shameless.
Lin Gang sneered, "You won’t leave? Then don’t blame me when you end up crippled. That’ll be your own doing."
