The Dowry

 
I should have listened better when my future wife told me her grandmother was evil. I mean, how evil could she be? How could anyone as sweet and caring as my future Mrs. Chatterbox be related to anyone evil? I was young and not knowledgeable in the ways of the world. And I should have listened better. Read about it (here).

  1. In Laos tradition, the dowry is on the reverse. Where the man (or his family) give the dowry to the bride's parents. Daisy's mom is trying to push the idea but I'm refusing. Doesn't matter if it the amount was a single buck, it's a sexist tradition stuck in the past.
