"The compensation a man offers if he gets divorce?" she raised a brow. She had seen many giving a few pennies to their wives when throwing them out of their house. Yes, a few did not give it. But because they lack money. Nobles were rich, of course they could offer better.
"Oh but why would a woman need a minor compensation when she could ask for half of the properties. But many did not ask for it because of their pride. And mostly nobles had a house supporting them so they did not require it. A few take it only to aggravate their partners but nothing serious there." he shook his head and then looked at the letter again with a sigh.
