Chapter 750 Barren womb
Second Aunt Yu fell silent under the threat of the officer but at the same time, she was rather upset with the news that she had received just now, Yu Dong ...that useless woman was really the owner of this village now? But how was it possible? What right did that woman have to become the owner of this village?
" Sorry Miss Officer," Old Man Tong bowed in front of the officer who glared at Second Aunt Yu and then dragged his daughter away from the centre of the village where the officer was telling the news to everyone. He was just as upset with the news that he received just now but compared to his daughter, Old Man Tong knew how to pretend better since he had been acting polite and understanding in front of his wife.
So he was much better at keeping a facade when compared to his daughter who never needed to do something like this ever in her life since she had everything that she wanted her way.
"What is the matter with them?" One of the villagers could not help but ask as they watched Second Aunt Yu and Old Man Tong leave. As far as they knew Yu Dong becoming the owner of this village was a good thing at least with her skills they would not have to worry about anything!
" Most probably they are upset because Yu Dong became the owner," said another villager wisely as she snorted at the vanishing back of Old Man Tong and Second Aunt Yu who were going back to their house. " Have you forgotten how Old Man Tong made a fuss while kicking Yu Dong out of his house and family? Saying that she was useless and would bring harm to his daughter and grandson? Now that Yu Dong has become the head of the village surely they will be upset since the latter could have been a perfect help for them if they treated her nicely!"
" Haha, this is going to be fun," another woman snickered looking like she was rather enjoying the sight that was happening in front of her. " Second Aunt Yu always said that Yu Dong was the most troublesome kid in her family and now Yu Dong is the only one who is the most successful one in her family, surely she is going to be super upset with it!"
Second Aunt Yu could, of course, hear the teasing of the women of the village but she was so embarrassed that she could not even say anything, in fact, she did not even have the will to glare at the women who were making fun of her. All she could do was return home with her head lowered as she tried to ignore the teasing of the women behind her as they called her stupid and whatnot.
" Father we have to move!" Second Aunt Yu who couldn't listen to the teasing exploded the second her father pushed open the door of their house and closed the latch behind them, causing a soft creaking sound to echo in the living room. " We cannot stay here anymore!"
" And where we will go?" Old Man Tong asked with slight annoyance, if he had known that Yu Dong was this skilled, he would have kept that girl in the house with him. It was not as if he could not spare a few meals for her family but for the sake of some small benefits, he caused a huge loss and this huge loss was simply non-repairable! With Yu Dong losing her daughter because of Qiu Bai, there was no way he will be able to suck up to that family!
When Second Aunt Yu heard the annoyed voice of her father, she was surprised. She looked at her father and asked in a slightly low voice, " Father, do you believe that I am useless as well? Yu Dong was just lucky! I heard that Ye Liu and the others heard of this skill from a foreigner in the imperial city and told her. If I had known then I too——"
" This is not the matter of me thinking of you as useless or not! I am simply asking without a home and saving where will we go?" Old Man Tong knew his daughter well, how can he not see that his daughter had always been jealous of her sister? The reason his daughter worked so hard to take the opportunity to study from Yu Dong was that she wanted to be one up then her sister, and now that self-confidence that she had was lost, how can Second Aunt Yu not be upset?
" We have no savings and Cheng Cheng is asking for more and more money, your promotion is on hold and we also had to give up a decent sum of our land to Yu Dong because of that Qiu bastard!" Old Man Tong felt his intestines hurt every time he thought about the documents and the land rights that he had to give to Yu Dong after Qiu Bai was taken away.
Second Aunt Yu heard her father's words and realised that she was being too reckless just now but with Yu Dong becoming the owner of the village, how was she going to survive in this place? Those women will never let her live past this!
Seeing the sullen look on the face of his daughter's face, Old Man Tong sighed and then said, "It is all right, do not think too much about it. Even if Yu Dong became the owner of this village, it is only a good thing for us."
" How?"Second Aunt Yu asked with a frown.
With Yu Dong becoming the owner of this place they will be scolded left and right!
Old Man Tong knew what his daughter was thinking which was why he smiled and added, " Have you forgotten? Your mother is still living with Yu Dong even if she had divorced me, do not forget that she is still your mother! If we are in trouble there is no way she will be able to ignore us."
