It has become a habit over the years. After get off work, Tong Nuanwan arrived at the gate of the community and then remembered that she was already married.

"Second sister, what are you doing here?" A hearty voice came from behind.

"You are back."

Tong Mingxu and Chen Xinyan returned from their trip to South City.

"With such little money, how long do you want to play?" Chen Xinyan carried the suitcase and walked forward without looking back.

Tong Nuanwan sighed and went home with them.

"sister."

"elder sister."

"Wanwan, why are you back?"

"Where can I go if my second sister doesn't come back?"

"Mingxu, you may not know this, but your second sister is getting married."

"Get...married?" Mingxu held the cup in his hand.

"It's not sudden, we have known each other for a long time." Tong Nuanwan put her backpack on the sofa.

"Why are you getting married without discussing it with everyone?" Tong Mingxu frowned.

"Second sister is an adult now. Can't she make the decision on her own about getting married?" Chen Xinyan pushed Tong Mingxu away, poured a glass of water and handed it to Tong Nuanwan, "Second sister, you must be thirsty. Have a drink of water."

A bad premonition came over me.

"Big sister, second sister, please sit down."

Chen Xinyan pulled Tong Nuanchen and Tong Nuanwan to sit on the sofa.

"Sister, second sister, you are the girls in the family. Logically, your parents should decide on matters related to marriage. However, your parents-in-law have passed away early, so Mingxu is the only man in your family. Mingxu will take good care of the marriage." Chen Xinyan nudged Tong Mingxu's arm with her elbow.

"Yes, don't worry, second sister. We won't let your in-laws look down on our family."

"Since my second sister is married, we can't prepare much dowry in this situation. However, we are a family and should stick together." Chen Xinyan looked at Tong Nuanwan, "Second sister, how much do your in-laws give as a betrothal gift?"

"I don't have a dowry, so naturally I don't have a betrothal gift."

Tong Nuanwan spoke in a cold voice and lowered his head to take a sip of water.

"Second sister, you can't say that. Whether you bring a dowry or not is your parents' business. Your parents' home is your home and your foundation in your husband's family. You can't turn your elbow outward. You can't let them get away with the betrothal gift, otherwise they will look down on you. You can see the popular saying in the short video, it's very well said, there is no such thing as a cheap thing. The in-laws will not take a woman who doesn't want a betrothal gift seriously."

"Xinyan," Tong Nuanchen looked at Chen Xinyan, "We are marrying off my sister, not selling her. We don't have a dowry, so naturally we don't have a betrothal gift. Besides, even if we give a betrothal gift, your second sister will take it back."

"Sister, that's not right. The bride price is a gift, originally meant for the bride's parents, but now your parents are gone, so of course the bride's brothers should take it."

"Dowry and betrothal gifts are the start-up capital for their families. We don't have any dowry, so naturally we are embarrassed to ask for betrothal gifts."

"Then...what are you doing?" Chen Xinyan shook off Tong Mingxu's hand, "No, if the betrothal gift is less than 500,000, I won't agree to this marriage."

"It's too late for you to agree or not, we have already obtained the marriage certificate."

"If you can get a marriage certificate, you can also get a divorce certificate. Second sister, go get the divorce certificate. We'll discuss the betrothal gift and then get married."

"Marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated as a joke?" Tong Nuanchen held Tong Nuanwan's hand.

For her sister's sake, Tong Nuanwan couldn't say anything even if she was unhappy.

"Say less, let's go back to the house." Tong Mingxu pulled Chen Xinyan and walked into the house.

"Let go, why are you leaving?" Chen Xinyan looked at Tong Nuanchen, "Sister, we are all family, so we are of one mind. Don't you think I am doing this for my second sister's good? People say everywhere that cheap girls who don't ask for a dowry are not cherished by anyone."

"Xinyan, I understand your good intentions. However, this is your second sister's business, let her make the decision herself."

"Big sister, you mean that I am not a member of your family and I have no say in your family, right?"

"Xinyan, that's not what I meant..."

"That's what you mean," Chen Xinyan crossed her arms and sat on the sofa with a sullen face. "Today, I won't say anything else, because no matter how much I do for Second Sister's good, you will think I have ulterior motives. I'm putting it this way, if there is no 500,000 yuan betrothal gift, Second Sister and I will be completely separated, and if Second Sister suffers any grievances in her husband's family in the future, I will not open my door to her. Mingxu, let's go."

Chen Xinyan pulled Tong Mingxu back to the room and slammed the door.

Tong Nuanchen patted Tong Nuanwan's arm.

"It's okay. The door of my sister's house is always open for you."

Tong Nuanwan lay on Tong Nuanchen's shoulder like a child.
