Chapter 642: Could not speak
Grandma Yu did not want to make things ugly in front of the villagers, she expected that her ex-husband would a bit of shame and would not make things difficult for Yu Dong but Old man Tong simply told her that she was a fool to expect such a big change from her. She coldly looked at Old man Tang and spat in a chilling voice, " Have you forgotten when your daughter made a loss, she came crying to me saying that she could not suffer this big loss and wanted me to hand her my savings? I did so in exchange for those big stone tools now you are saying that it belongs to you? Why don't you climb up to the heavens!"
Old man Tang did not think that Grandma Yu would go against him, after all, he was doing this all for their daughter and grandson, he stared at Old madam Yu in shock and couldn't snap out of his daze for a long time. He just could not understand why Old madam Yu was going against him, it was not like he was asking for the money for himself!
If he got those eighty taels he was going to use them for their grandson!
But what Old man Tang forgot was that he was only Yu Cheng's grandfather but Old madam Yu was Yu Dong's grandmother along with being Yu Cheng's grandmother. She would no longer watch her granddaughter being bullied by someone who was this selfish!
It took old man Tang a long time to snap out of his daze as he looked at his wife and said, " Do you really have to be so calculative? Who I am doing this for? Is it not because I want our grandson to become a scholar as soon as possible and bring glory to our family and village!"
As he spoke he even squeezed out a few tears, in the past every time he shed a few tears his wife would go soft-hearted. Old madam Yu was a straight woman who did not say much but had the softest heart which was why Old man Tang was sure that his ex-wife's heart will melt this time too but he forgot that he was the one who left Old madam Yu to die.
Even though Old madam Yu was a soft-hearted woman, she was not a fool! She glared at her ex-husband and said coldly, " I already said that I will give you as much money as I can. Cheng Cheng is my grandson, and it is my duty to raise him but Yu Dong is his cousin, have you ever heard of such a case where a cousin is raising their cousins? If so then you bring them to me and I will ask Dong Dong to pay for his gifts!"
Old man Tang was tongue-tied, he wanted to say something but he was stopped by Second Aunt Yu who shook her head and said, " There is no need for you to fight with them, daddy. We will think of a way to get Cheng Cheng what he wants," she glanced at Yu Dong and the others and then sighed. "It's all right we will get through these times as well, I just hope those who are flying too high will be able to keep their pace."
" Darn that woman," Chen Mi jumped up as he rolled his sleeves to fight with Second Aunt Yu but was stopped by Shen Li who covered his mouth and then dragged him behind only then did Shen Li turn to look at Second Aunt Yu and said, " You don't need to worry, Second Aunt Yu. Our wife had done a lot of good deeds recently, I am sure she will be blessed by the Goddess of Fortune."
His words caused Second Aunt Yu's face to change, was he saying that she was not a good woman? Is this why her fortune did not work when she was trying to extract oil?
" You have gotten more sharp-tongued, Shen Li," she said with a cold face as she looked at Shen Li who once did not dare to raise his head in front of her.
Shen Li too looked at Second Aunt Yu, in the past, this woman looked really scary to him. After all, she was the one who was paying for everything in the house, he thought that if he was to say anything against her then he will not be able to eat anything at night but now that his wife was earning more than Second Aunt Yu, he was no longer scared of her, in fact, Second Aunt Yu no longer looked as scary as she did in the past.
" Thank you for the praise, Second Aunt Yu," Shen Li smilingly replied causing Second Aunt Yu's face to turn even colder as she turned around and dragged her daddy away, she did not say anything but Old man Tang could not stop himself as he continued to shriek vulgar and coarse curses at Yu Dong and the others.
In Old man Tang's eyes, he had nothing to lose, he was already abandoned by his wife, so he might as well do what he wanted! Which was he did not hold back on his curses but then just as he was going to get even more vulgar, he felt something get stuck in his throat and he could no longer shout, stunned he patted his cheeks and tried to say something but he couldn't even say a word.
Stunned he looked around but he did not see anything or anyone who could have attacked him and what was more, he did not feel anything right now!
Wu Junfen stared at the old mer coldly and scoffed, Yu Dong was her precious granddaughter. Even, she did not dare to raise her voice and say such cold words to her, how dare this mer say such things to her granddaughter? He was still too fresh to go against her!
