บท 474: Chapter 474: The Deal Fell Through

Mrs. Zhang's spirits lifted, and her illness gradually improved.

The Wan Family acted swiftly. Just one day later, they sent a matchmaker to the Gu Family to discuss the marriage between Wan Ruyan and Gu Changshun.

Mrs. Zhang had no objections to other matters, but she took issue with the bride price the Wan Family proposed, which was twenty taels of silver.

Mrs. Zhang immediately cried out in protest.

"Twenty taels? That's too much! Are you Wan Family people trying to rob us?" Hmph, let alone twenty taels, Mrs. Zhang wouldn't even part with two, to give the Wan Family an advantage.

The negotiations over the bride price fell through, and Mrs. Zhang parted ways with the Wan Family once again, without any warmth between them.

Su Yunjin did some calculations; after the house renovations were complete, there would still be many expenses for her and Gu Ya, including payment for the workers and for materials like lumber and gravel.
