Seeing her not making a sound, she raised her voice slightly and repeated, "Why did you borrow so much silver?"
In Lin Qiao's view, her mother just didn't care about her. She angrily yelled, "I borrowed so much silver because you all don't care about me! Zhang Dong's mom said that if I give her a dowry of ten taels, she will let me marry him!"
Hearing this, everyone quieted down for a moment. Lin Xushi and Mrs. Lin Wu exchanged glances, both a bit stunned.
No one knew what this young lady was thinking.
A dowry of ten taels is something only a well-off family would give. Even if they could afford it, it wouldn't be to marry into the Zhang Family, who just has a few pieces of land.
Ten taels as a dowry? It's clearly meant to disgust people.
