Chapter 5 — Dowry Melted
“If divorced, in addition to dowry compensation, you can also request division of the marital property.” “More than six hundred thousand has been transferred to your husband's brother, which can also be considered evidence of malicious transfer of common property.” “When the court divides, priority will be given to the party who is not at fault.” I gave her the prepared documents. Bank statement, chat photo, gold cooking slip, recovery certificate issued by the jewelry store. There is also a three-year reconciliation table of family income and expenditure that I created myself. When lawyer Han flipped through it, he couldn't help but exclaim. "Your reconciliation sheet is clearer than the financial statements of most companies I've seen." I said: "Professional habits." Leaving the lawyer's office, I also went to work one more job. Go to Xinfu jewelry store. Find the boss, using the excuse of "wanting to make another piece of jewelry for my mother-in-law" to chat. The owner was very talkative. "The last time your mother-in-law came to smelt gold, it was more than three hundred grams. I've been in the business for more than twenty years and have never seen anyone bring so much old gold at one time." "Those bracelets look antique and have beautiful patterns." "I also told your mother-in-law that this is a collectible, don't cook it, she didn't listen." "Just insist on making dragon and phoenix bracelets and gold necklaces." "And told me to use the leftover gold to make a Buddha pendant. gold.”Buddha pendant? Tien Que Phuong never mentioned this. "How much does that pendant weigh?" "About more than sixty grams, her mother-in-law said it was to keep for herself." Sixty grams, according to the current gold price, nearly forty thousand yuan. She even kept a portion of the remaining gold from my dowry for herself. I smiled and thanked the boss, but didn't buy anything. Leaving the gold shop, I stood on the side of the road. The sunset stretches my shadow longer. Phuong Vien owes me six hundred sixty-seven thousand. Tien Que Phuong owes me five hundred thousand in dowry and my mother's wedding ring. Phuong Due owes me three years of right to know and trust. These debts, on the wedding day, I will calculate each one clearly. But it's not me who counts. I'll let them figure it out themselves. Coming home at night, Tien Que Phuong was on a video call with a middle-aged woman. Trieu Dinh Dinh's mother, Aunt Luu. Tien Que Phuong smiled flatteringly at the screen. "Don't worry, ma'am-in-law, the dragon and phoenix necklace is pure gold, using more than three hundred grams of gold to make." "Our Phuong family's conditions are normal, but there is absolutely nothing to criticize about Dinh Dinh." I passed behind her and accidentally glanced at her. The smile on her face was completely different from when she faced me. Humble, pleasing, reserved. It turns out that Tien Que Phuong looked like this in front of the Trieu family. What she was most afraid of was that the Trieu family thought that the Phuong family was poor. I returned to the bedroom and opened the phone book. Surf to a very rare number when in touch. Trieu Dinh Dinh's mother, Luu Tu Tran. Last time I stayed for a family meal. I looked for a long time, but didn't call. It's not time yet. But I already know what to do.08Phuong Vien's wedding, held at Jinhua Hotel. Thirty-eight tables, in a red-carpeted lobby, a yellow balloon gate stood at the entrance. Tien Que Phuong wore a dark red cheongsam, curled her hair, and hung a large gold necklace around her neck. I've never seen that necklace before. Another dish made from the leftover gold, I guess. I wore a very ordinary blue-gray dress and sat behind the reception desk. Phuong Due is in the lobby welcoming guests. Trieu Dinh Dinh's parents arrived. Aunt Luu wore a black outfit and a pearl necklace, her temperament was not bad. The Trieu family's conditions are much better than the Phuong family's, the whole area knows this. Tien Que Phuong stepped forward to welcome Aunt Luu, holding her hand and asking her kindly. "Mrs
In-laws, are you tired on the road? Quickly sit down." Aunt Luu smiled politely a few words, her eyes swept over the reception desk, seeing me. "This is the eldest daughter-in-law, right?" "That's right, Hoa Hoa is helping to receive guests." Tien Que Phuong pulled Aunt Luu towards the distinguished guests' table. I smiled politely at Aunt Luu. At eleven o'clock, the official ceremony began. Phuong Vien and Trieu Dinh Dinh stood on the stage exchanging rings, applause rang out from the audience. A pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets on Trieu's wrists. Dinh Dinh under the particularly dazzling light. The MC invited her mother-in-law to speak. Tien Que Phuong held the microphone, her voice choked. "Our Phuong family's conditions are not very good, but Dinh Dinh is absolutely considered a biological daughter." "This pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets is a family heirloom of the Phuong family." "I specially invited a skilled craftsman to remake it, hoping it will bless Tieu Vien and Dinh Dinh with hundreds of years of happiness."
