Chapter 645: If Yu Dong dies ….
Yu Dong was not the only one who was stunned but Second Aunt Yu was equally stunned, she clearly knew that her niece was no good and she did not even have the slightest bit of skills or talents but now the same niece who was like a good for nothing alcoholic was actually extracting oil? She was even thinking about opening an oil mill, one that would be better than the Qiao oil mill in the town.
" Daddy what do you think, will Yu Dong be able to extract oil from the rice bran?" Because Second Aunt Yu was anxious she could not help but ask, her anxiousness had nothing to do with the fact that she has not sent rice bran to Yu Dong instead all her anxiousness was coming from the fact that if Yu Dong successfully extracted oil then she will be embarrassed in front of the villagers once again! And what was more if Yu Dong succeeded then she will far from her reach and she will never be able to catch up to her unless her son succeeds in becoming an official!
Old man Tang was already in a bad mood because of what happened in the meeting when he heard his daughter think so highly of Yu Dong, he could not help but burst, " Nonsense! Do you think that this is possible? You were not even able to extract oil from rapeseeds and they are considered the best in the town, you think that girl will be able to extract oil from the dry thing?"
" Who does not know that eating rice bran causes stomach ache because it is so dry and chewy, there is nothing in it that can be used to extract oil, after all, it's nothing but waste! If she can take oil out of that thing then I am willing to cut my head off and hand it to that woman!"
Old man Tang did not like Yu Dong because of the fact that she was the granddaughter of the second husband of his wife, the two of them were tight as a pair of socks and shoes. If not for his good fortune that …that shameless son of a bitch got sick and died at an early age, he would have never been able to get control of this household, he would have to stay in the back side and wait for his wife to look at him. It was a good thing that he was not unlucky and was smart enough to take care of those who were useless before they could become an eyesore.
" But what if she does?" Second Aunt Yu asked again, this was what she was very much scared of, if Yu Dong succeeded then there was a chance that she will ride on her head and dance!
Old man Tang frowned when he thought about this and could not help but think over it again, there was indeed a chance of Yu Dong succeeding and if she succeeds then they will be the ones who will be at loss. The more he thought like this, the more agitated he became, in the end, he couldn't help but slap his thighs and curse out loud, " Damn it's all that old woman's fault, she has been poisoned by that niece of yours and no longer cares about Cheng Cheng and you, she is only worried about what will happen to Yu Dong if she was to hand eighty taels to us but she is not worried about what will happen to her grandson if he does not get the money."
"She is seriously waiting for me to die!"
"Father-in-law, why are you getting so agitated?" Qiu Bai who has been silent throughout the entire time finally spoke up as he poured a cup of warm water and handed it to his wife and father-in-law. " Have you forgotten? Yu Dong's official husbands cannot bear a child ."
Old man Tang who took a sip of the warm water frowned even more after listening to this, he turned to look at his son-in-law and asked, " What do you mean by that?"
Qiu Bai smiled and then said, " The Empress of the imperial city does not allow a mer from a side husband to become the owner of the property and what's more unless the child is a daughter who comes from the womb of the official husbands, the properties of the woman will go to her relatives once she dies."
" What are you talking about, by the time that hussy dies, the grass on my coffin will be three inches tall——wait !" Old man Tang turned to look at Qiu Bai who was softly smiling and then narrowed his eyes as he said, " Are you saying what I think you are saying?"
Qiu Bai shrugged his shoulders helplessly and stated, " I am not saying anything, I am just hoping that in case something happens to Yu Dong while her husbands cannot give birth to a daughter then wouldn't it be good? I mean no one has ever seen the future, maybe we will be able to get the properties that belonged to Yu Dong, including that bar that she has opened in the town."
" Have you forgotten? That Hussy's little husband is still pregnant." Old man Tang scoffed as he rolled his eyes, he was a paper tiger even though he was willing to curse and fight with his hands, he was not someone who would have the guts to kill someone.
Which was why he continued to make excuses.
Qiu Bai was not saying these things for Old man Tang to hear anyway, he turned to look at his wife and then softly murmured, " But that child is still in the belly of that mer, it has not been born if something happens to that mer while he is still carrying the child….who can blame anyone?"
Second Aunt Yu's fingers twitched as a ruthless glint passed in her eyes, her husband was right as long as Yu Dong was no longer alive. All this glory will belong to her by law!
