Chapter 526: Take the blame 2
Dedicating todays chapter to all those who are still supporting this book
Seeing that his daughter was also pushed into a corner, Old man Yu didn't get angry with it. That was right how can he forget? His daughter was a worker in the town, her reputation could not be harmed and nor can he harm his grandson who was the apple of his eye, so he could only grit his teeth and take the blame on himself but if he was going to take the blame then he wasn't going to go down alone, he was going to take someone with himself!
After that, he calmed himself down before he looked at Yu Tong and smilingly said, " What are you getting angry for, even if your grandfather doesn't have money, your sister Dong has it, doesn't she? We are all one family, I am sure that she will save your grandmother——"
" Says who?" Yu Dong looked at Old man Yu with a look of feigned surprise as if she couldn't understand why she was stabbed when she was lying down. " Who says that we are one family? Haven't we broken off ties and spilt the family? Since when did we become one family, when did it happen? Did one of my husbands say that to you? Or did I do it? No, I don't think either of those things happened, my husbands would never do something so massive without telling me and I don't remember telling you that we are one family either, so what are you talking about old man Yu?"
" You…!" Old man Yu choked, he stared at Yu Dong with an expression of outrage but he couldn't say anything, what Yu Dong said was right and what was more he needed her to either save grandma Yu or take the blame together with him, so he couldn't lose here yet!
He clenched and unclenched his fists before he snorted coldly and said, " So what? Even if we have broken ties with each other, it would not change the fact that I am your grandfather and the woman who needs your help is your grandmother, how can you be so ruthless to her like this? Aren't you afraid that you will be struck by lightning?"
" Blood ties are indeed something that I can't change but we have the records and documents, I also have the proof that I no longer belong to the Yu clan, if you don't wish to acknowledge it we can go to the Yamen where we have finalised our documents, I think you will remember it then."
Old man Yu …..
" And speaking of getting struck by lightning I don't think that I will be the only one who will get struck by lightning, there are people who ignored a pregnant mer when he was on the verge of dying, it is said that even devil takes pity on those who carry the greatest creation of the God but there were some people here who turned a blind eye to all the pleading that my husbands did. I believe if heavens really exist then the first to die will be surely them, what do you think old man Yu?"
Old man Yu: "..."
How can he forget this was his least likeable grandchild?
He breathed heavily before shooting a sullen look at Yu Dong. " But that woman is still your grandmother."
Yu Dong frowned as if she has heard something strange and foreign as she said, " You finally remembered that I am your granddaughter? I thought you have completely given up on me"
Old man Yu: "….." He heard the sarcasm all right.
His fingers itched to curl around Yu Dong's throat but he still smiled and said to her, " Dong Dong, you have to understand the situation, she is your grandmother——"
" She is and that is the only reason that I have given her a space in my house and fed her," Yu Dong nodded with an understanding expression, seeing that she was finally getting what he was saying, Old man, Yu heaved a sigh of relief but then he heard Yu Dong continue, " Grandma told me that she has been getting less and less food because money has been tight in the house, she said since she is the pillar of the house, she has to hand over her share to Yu Cheng, while everyone else ate their fill. You have no idea, how hungry she was…I made a pot of porridge for her and my family but grandma Yu ate the entire batch of porridge alone, that much rice was enough to feed my family for an entire day but it was all eaten up by grandma Yu… I say old man Yu couldn't you have given a strip of bacon to grandma Yu at least? I mean it was really heart-wrenching for me to see her nibble on the bones of the chicken."
Want to wipe your hands clean? Want to save that good-for-nothing Yu Cheng's skin? Not happening!
At once the entire village turned to look at Old man Yu causing his face to burn with embarrassment, he glared at Yu Dong venomously and said, " You are slandering me! I never did that, I ——"
Yu Dong's words were making him feel really uncomfortable.
" Is that so? Should I call someone to bring grandma Yu? We can hear from her whether I am speaking the truth or not." Yu Dong tilted her head with a curious expression on her face. " I bet she will tell us the truth and I will ask someone to bring the cleaned pot as well, we haven't washed it yet but it's so shiny that it looks like I have brought it from the market just now."
Old man Yu's expression turned even uglier, he knew that he would not be able to save himself, so he could only glare at Yu Dong ignoring the gazes of the people as he said, " You really have a lot to say, so what if your grandmother ate a few mouthfuls of rice."
Seeing that he has finally admitted and catching the scandalous looks on the faces of the villagers, Yu Dong shrugged casually and bluntly said, " My meaning was simple, we have separated the family and I have no ties with anyone in your family yet I am willing to share my ration in these situations with someone who shares no ties with me, what about you? You and your daughter have been relying on grandma Yu for so long surely you will not leave her in a lurch right?" Seeing that he was going to contradict her again she added calmly, " Grandma saw you picking up the pouch with money, she knows that you have taken all the savings so stop quibbling, it's really embarrassing ."
