Chapter 456 - 439: Show Off (Two in One - )_2
"Thirty-six sets, that’s so much, how much would that be worth? Aren’t you afraid of thieves targeting your house?" Xiu Juan was so stunned that she subconsciously swallowed her saliva, suddenly feeling that if the man’s own conditions were a bit worse, it wouldn’t be so hard to accept.
"Who said we keep it at home? If I really kept it at home, do you think I’d be able to sleep at night?"
Ye Man’s mother couldn’t help but sneer internally when she saw her reaction, remembering the dowry list that her in-laws had sent over today, which included a villa in her daughter’s name, as well as several storefronts in the city center, and so on, which gave her a strong sense of confidence.
She thought to herself, ’They say don’t flaunt your wealth, so the even more exciting stuff I haven’t even planned to tell you yet, and you’re already dizzy from this mere tip of the iceberg?’
"Indeed, tsk, tsk, with so much jewelry, you could wear a different piece every day for a month without repeating any, tsk...rich people are really something else. If there’s so much jewelry, then surely the other things wouldn’t be any less, right? The cash gift must have been at least 180,000, wouldn’t you say? Don’t go being stingy in this regard. I’ve heard that some rich people may have lots of properties and jewelry, but their pockets are actually quite empty, unable to conjure much cash."
Xiu Juan sighed with a mix of jealousy and envy, wondering why her own daughter didn’t have such fortune. Thirty-six sets of jewelry—she wasn’t even greedy for all of it; just keeping a fraction for herself would have been enough to show off in the neighborhood for years.
"How could they possibly be stingy? Before, my in-laws even asked us for any conditions we might have, and I just said we don’t have any conditions, we just hope the two children can live well in the future. Our family can’t compare to theirs, so at most we can only offer one house as a dowry, we can’t do much else."
