Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Dowry

When Lu Jueyu was back in her room, Mother Lu knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing her mother, Lu Jueyu asked, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Mother Lu closed the door and sat beside her. She took out a small bag from her sleeve and stuffed it into Lu Jueyu's hand. She looked at the bag and asked, "Mother, what is this?"

Mother Lu patted her hand lightly and said, "This is your dowry. Although it's not much, this is Mother and Father's blessing. Use it wisely. After marriage, you can only rely on yourself and your husband. Mother and Father can't stay with you like before. If you're being bullied, come back and tell Mother. You have your family behind you. Whoever dares to bully you, we will settle accounts with them. Do not be afraid. Do you understand?"

Hearing Mother Lu's words, Lu Jueyu's eyes were red. Although she will never see her mom again, she gained another Mother in this unfamiliar world and also a family who loves her dearly. She is such a lucky person.

"I understand. Thank you, Mother," she said in a low, hoarse voice.

"Silly child, what are you thanking your mother for?" Mother Lu stroked her hair and said softly.

"You should have a good rest and don't make yourself too tired. Otherwise, you won't look good on your wedding day." Mother Lu added.

"En."

After Mother Lu left, Lu Jueyu opened the bag and counted the money. A total of 50 yuan, and some coupons. With the dowry gift from Li Chenmo, she would have a dowry of 300 yuan. That's a lot of money for a villager, especially for a girl. After all, many people are still patriarchal in this day and age, even when leaders said that women can hold up half the world as men.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, followed by Chen Anwen's voice, "Jueyu, can I go in?"

"Sister-in-law, please come in."

Chen Anwen walked into her room, closed the door, and sat on the Kang bed beside her. She noticed the small bag in Lu Jueyu's hand, and said with a smile, "Jueyu, your eldest brother and sister-in-law don't have any valuable things to add to your dowry, so we can only give you some money. Don't dislike it."

"While it's not much, it's our heartfelt wish for you to have a blissful and happy marriage." Chen Anwen handed her some money while talking.

Lu Jueyu was surprised that her elder brother and his wife would add a dowry to her. Since they have not separated from the family yet, her mother is the one who manages the family money. She only gives them an allowance of six yuan a month, while she only receives two yuan.

She looked at the twenty yuan in her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, this..."

"Just keep it. This is also your brother's intention. We only have you as a sister, don't refuse."

After a while, Lu Jueyu said, "Thank you sister-in-law."

"Good. Then you rest, I have to see the children."

Just as Chen Anwen left the room, Wang Muxiao entered her room. She was much more casual than Chen Anwen, sitting directly next to her, and asked in a low voice, "Jueyu, has your eldest sister-in-law come to give you a dowry?"

"En."
