Genius Baby: Mr. Zhan's wife is a big shot

Chapter 497 Jiang Zhengtao is here to ask for a gift

"Yue Xing, how can you talk to your father like that? The grudges between our generations are our own business. But you are your father's daughter. Our grudges have nothing to do with you. You are a girl, and you are so unfilial. How do you let others see you?

The elders of the Zhan family are all here. You are not filial to your own father, so how can they think you can be filial to them? If they get angry and drive you out, it will be bad. "

Yang Huirong lectured Jiang Yueqing in the manner of an elder, with a hint of intimidation in her words. If Jiang Yueqing wanted to keep her status as the eldest lady of the Zhan family, she could not disrespect them anymore.

Jiang Yueqing sneered. This was the first time she had seen someone as shameless as Yang Huirong.

And her level is quite high. She said that the grudges of the previous generation are the previous generation's business, and as a daughter, she should be filial.

This ability to confuse right and wrong is really growing.

At this time, Old Madam Zhan said calmly, "As the granddaughter-in-law of our Zhan family, you don't need to package yourself as filial and kind. What's more important is the ability to distinguish right from wrong and have your own opinions and methods. After all, you are the future mistress of our Zhan family. How can you be kidnapped by others and led by the nose?"

Madam Zhan spoke in a calm tone, but every word she said was in support of Jiang Yueqing and she was also expressing her attitude, especially stating that Jiang Yueqing was the future mistress of the family, which gave Jiang Yueqing enough trust and face.

Yang Huirong looked unhappy. The old lady of the Zhan family had always been very strict.

For many years, she has occupied the position of mistress of the Zhan family and refused to give it up. Why is it that she has to give up the position of mistress to Jiang Yueqing at this time? What virtue and ability does Jiang Yueqing have?

Of course, Madam Zhan did not always occupy the position of the mistress of the Zhan family. It was just that Su Mei’s personality was too weak, and she simply could not be the mistress of the Zhan family. Su Mei herself also knew that she was not capable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility.

So with the old lady in control of the Zhan family, Su Mei felt relaxed.

However, the outside world's reputation for the old lady's harshness and domineering nature became even worse, as people thought she was greedy for power and unwilling to let go.

Jiang Yueqing looked at Old Madam Zhan. She knew that Old Madam Zhan was supporting her and giving her strength.

Although Jiang Yueqing publicly accused him of cheating and not supporting his child, Jiang Zhengtao would not give up Jiang Yueqing, his cash cow.

"Madam, you are right. I didn't expect you to love my daughter so much. As a father, I am satisfied. Although my daughter has some misunderstandings about me. But no matter what, I am her biological father, and this can never be changed."

Jiang Zhengtao emphasized his status as biological father. At this moment, Jiang Yueqing did not speak. She just watched Jiang Zhengtao pretending quietly. She wanted to see what Jiang Zhengtao wanted to do.

"Yesterday, there was a small accident at my daughter's wedding with Young Master Zhan. The security guards stopped us from entering. I know the Zhan family definitely didn't do it on purpose. The Zhan family is a century-old family and they value etiquette. They definitely didn't intentionally prevent me, their in-laws, from entering the wedding. It was just because they were too busy. These can be understood. If you make up the betrothal money now, I can also understand."

It turns out that he came for the bride price.

Jiang Zhengtao was a shrewd man, how could he not know that the Zhan family deliberately did not let him in.

I guess he just looks down on them.

He deliberately said that the Zhan family was negligent to give face to the Zhan family and make the Zhan family feel that they were in the wrong.

He also praised the Zhan family as a century-old family that values interests.

The bride price is a gift that cannot be abolished!

Although she knew that Jiang Zhengtao came here with ulterior motives, Jiang Yueqing didn't expect that after she had said those words, he would still have the nerve to ask the Zhan family for a betrothal gift.

Yang Huirong pretended to be pitiful and said, "Mrs. Zhan, you don't know how fierce the hotel security was yesterday. We all said we were the bride's parents, but they refused to let us in. It's pitiful that Zhengtao couldn't enter the venue, so he stood guard at the door and refused to leave. Zhengtao knew that the Zhan family was busy, so he didn't complain. He just stood outside, and Zhan's feet were numb and he almost fainted, but he still refused to leave."

The goal of Yang Huirong and Jiang Zhengtao is to make the Zhan family feel guilty so that they will be more generous when giving the betrothal gifts.

Madam Zhan was used to seeing people who were only interested in profit, but this was the first time she had seen someone so shameless.

He never raised Jiang Yueqing, but he still had the nerve to come and ask for a dowry. This is truly unique.

But he is Jiang Yueqing's father after all, so asking for a dowry is normal in the traditional sense.

So, she couldn't refuse.

"Tell me, how much dowry do you want?"

Madam Zhan remained calm and spoke in a loud voice, which made Jiang Zhengtao very excited.

He is about to get rich, and the old lady has asked for the bride price, so how can he be less?

At least several hundred million.

Jiang Zhengtao nodded and said, "Madam Zhan, you can give me the money for the betrothal gift as you see fit. I am not selling my daughter, and Jiang Yueqing is my only daughter now, so she is naturally a treasure in my hands."

Jiang Yueqing sneered and said, "You are so greedy. If you want more than just a betrothal gift, it's like selling your daughter. I am your only daughter, and you are talking so nicely. You just want to treat me as a cash cow."

Seeing that Jiang Yueqing had seen through his thoughts, Jiang Zhengtao said awkwardly: "Yueqing, I know you are still upset about your mother's affairs and have many misunderstandings. This time I just want to repair the relationship between father and daughter. Please don't misunderstand me."

"Don't worry, as long as you don't ask for a penny now, walk out immediately, and never mention the gift again, I will believe that you want to turn over a new leaf and be a good father."

Jiang Yueqing raised her eyebrows and spoke in a very relaxed and comfortable manner, but Jiang Zhengtao's heart was filled with turmoil.

How can we ask him to give up the betrothal money?

The other party is the Zhan family, and they must be generous. How could he miss this opportunity in vain?

"Yueqing, of course Dad can refuse the gift, but the Zhan family is a century-old family that values its reputation. Giving a gift when marrying a wife is a tradition passed down by our ancestors, and the ritual cannot be abolished."

Yang Huirong also echoed, "This betrothal gift is a custom that has existed since ancient times, and it also shows respect for the woman. Old Madam Zhan naturally values Yue Xing so much and has high hopes for him. She even wants to give Yue Xing the position of mistress of the house. If she values him so much, the betrothal gift must be very generous."

Every word Yang Huirong said was meant to trap the Zhan family, forcing them to pay a huge amount of money as a betrothal gift.

It's really unbelievable that she could say that.

"You were an abacus in your previous life, right? In this life, you can hear the abacus from ten miles away."
