Chapter 954: Fools —-2
----------
Jia Song was upset when he heard his wife say that she was going to take a look outside. Clearly, his wife was the only reasonable one among the three sisters yet she had to take responsibility for her sisters' misdeeds even if they were in the wrong, all because the elders in the house pampered Li Sangyu and Li Wuying.
No this won't do, looks like he will have to ask for separation once again. They were not without children, he and his wife had two daughters and a mer, if something happened to Li Wang because of her sisters then what will he do?
There was no way he was going to allow his wife to get harmed because of those two idiots!
" Little Ting, go and call your aunt Sangyu and grandmother and grandfather," Jia Song ordered his daughter before his wife could stop him. "Tell that someone had come knocking on our door and is calling for them, if they don't come home then they might not see their house intact."
" Song'er——" Li Wang wanted to stop her daughter but Li Ting was shrewd like her father, she realised that this trouble was incited because of her aunt thus, she did not listen to her mother and then ran through the back door to call her aunt and grandparents.
Seeing Li Ting rush, Li Wang did not know what to say, she turned to look at Jia Song wanting to reprimand him but the latter interrupted her by saying in a harsh voice, " You might be willing to act like a filial daughter and a good elder sister but the women outside might not be kind enough to hear your excuses, they are here to see Li Sangyu and I don't think that just because you talk politely with them, they will let your sister go. Don't forget father in law, did not even return Yu Le's dowry before kicking him out and even hid the rice that he received from the Yu family."
With a scoff, he added, " We did not get a bowl to eat but your second sister and third sister are having quite fun eating it. If they were the ones who had fun then they should be paying the interest. Not our family!"
Only then did he turn around and walked back to his room leaving Li Wang to sigh alone in the living room of their small thatched hut.
However, she did not say anything to her husband because she knew that her husband was indeed in the right. Her parents were biased but they still wanted her and her family to stand on Li Sangyu and Li Wuying's side.
Though she felt it was unfair, Li Wang sighed once again and then headed outside where her gaze fell on three well-dressed women. Even though she did not recognize the younger ones, Li Wang did recognise Old Madam Yu and felt her heart stifle even further.
Looks like her gut feeling was right, it was indeed the Yu family who came to look for Li Sangyu.
With a helpless look Li Wang smiled at Old Madam Yu and greeted, " In law, you are here?"
" Please don't call me in law, I am afraid that I cannot afford to be called in law by the likes of your family," Old Madam Yu glanced at Li Wang and stated coldly. " We are here to look for Li Sangyu and her husband, I heard that son of bastard that she married dared to harm the grandson of my Yu family. I want to see what kind of prince, she brought home that he thinks he is above law and can do anything that he wishes."
"That's right," Yu Tong sneered coldly as she glanced at Yu Dong and added, "My sister here is friends with Magistrate Li and we would like to have a hearing in the court regarding this matter. I would like to see just what kind of special authority that surname Min has that he can go against the law and act like a tyrant."
Li Wang stiffened when she realised that the Yu family now had connections with officials, no wonder they were so well dressed and even had a carriage! It was because they were now sitting next to officials and were even friends with them!
For the hundredth time, Li Wang cursed her sister for treating a fish eye as a pearl and treating the real pearl as trash.
" I think there is a misunderstanding——-"
" I am afraid there isn't one," Yu Dong finally parted her lips as she turned to look at Li Wang and spoke in a forceful manner. " The child whom Uncle Le brought with him still has burnt marks on her skin, I want to ask just what kind of misunderstanding can lead to such marks? And even if it was just a misunderstanding, why wasn't it treated on time?"
Li Wang did not have an answer to this question and maybe she could have said something but because Yu Dong's aura was too strong, she couldn't bring herself to make excuses but fortunately for her, Li Ting returned with Li Sangyu, Min Yan and the Old Madam Li and her husband who went to the fields.
The four of them were quite surprised when Li Ting told them that there was a big carriage standing in front of their house but when they saw the big carriage they were quite excited thinking that one of their relatives in the town came to visit them but the second they stepped inside, they came face to face with three very angry women who were holding clubs and poles, one of the mammies and another woman also glared at them as if they were trash lying on the street.
" O..Old Madam Yu??" Old Madam Li looked at the youthful-looking elderly woman who was dressed in the finest silk shirt and pants, with surprise in her eyes. Was this really Old Madam Yu? How come she suddenly became so rich? But more importantly, did they really kick out a rich woman's mer son out of their family?
