Zhong Xingwang dismissed the concern nonchalantly, "What's spending a little silver to welcome and cleanse the dust from my father-in-law's family?"
"It's easy to say that, but you're still a scholar and can't be too extravagant. Once you start a family and establish yourself, what will you use to support it?"
Hongji disagreed, not wanting his future daughter to marry a spendthrift.
"Father-in-law, rest assured, I've already thought it through. After passing the Scholar examination, I'll help manage the family business. After marrying, I won't be unable to support a family!" Zhong Xingwang promised while stealing a glance at his future wife at another table.
With such a delicate wife, how could he not care for her wholeheartedly?
"Well, as long as you've made a decision, that's good. We're not cowards either. We'll provide for our daughter and give her a stable future," Hongji, as a father, made this bold statement because his son was still too young to support his elder sister.
