Chapter 957: Return what you took
Li Sangyu's face flushed in shame after being scolded by Old Madam Yu, she wanted to say something but did not know where to begin. Old Madam Yu was indeed correct when she went to ask for Yu Le's hand and she was also the one who promised that she was going to treat Yu Le well.
" In law… old madam Yu," Old Madam Li was going to call Old Madam Yu 'in law' but stopped when she was glared at by Old Madam Yu. She changed her words and then continued, " I know that you are angry but you have to hear our side as well, it is not that we did not wish to keep Yu Le but the daughter he gave birth to …she is a jinx——"
" How is she a jinx?" Yu Dong arched a brow as she looked at Old Madam Li, her interruption caused Old Madam Li to look at her dissatisfaction but seeing how even Old Madam Yu seemed to be respectful towards Yu Dong, Old Madam Li suppressed her anger and then replied,
" Ever since Yu Le gave birth to that daughter things haven't been going according well for our family. Our fields wilted and my youngest daughter couldn't pass the secondary scholar exams more importantly Little Yan couldn't get pregnant without miscarrying in the second and third semesters… we had to send him away —— if Yu Le had agreed to let his daughter leave then——"
" Heh," while she was still speaking Yu Dong sneered causing the Li family to turn and look at her.
When Old Madam Li saw that Yu Dong was scoffing at her words, she couldn't suppress the dissatisfaction she was feeling in her heart ever since Yu Dong stepped into her house and continued to look down at her. Thus, she parted her lips and then said, " Is there something that you are upset with Miss Yu?"
" Other than the fact that my uncle was kicked out of your family? There are many things yes. But in this scenario I am not upset, I am tickled by your stupidity," stated Yu Dong with a calm expression on her face. " You said that ever since little Yuya was born nothing good happened right? But why is it that I heard that it was after Little Yuya's birth that your daughter passed the elementary scholar exams? She could not pass the secondary scholar exams? Is it because she was affected by little Yuya's bad luck or is it because she was not working hard enough?"
" As for your fields, the reason they wilted is all because your family was not willing to take care of your crops. You handed the job to the mers while everyone else stayed at home and didn't do much, how can two or three mers take care of so many fields? It was bound to be wilted."
She then turned to look at Min Yan and Li Sangyu before curling the side of her lips and then stating coldly, " And in regards to your son-in-law and daughter, the reason he is not able to keep a pregnancy is that he and your daughter rolled around when they were very young causing his body to weaken."
With a roll of her eyes, she then leaned back on the small chair and crossed her arms before derisively sneering at the Li family, " Now you tell me, is it because Little Yuya is a jinx or you all are just suffering from the consequences of your actions?"
Her eyes turned frigid while looking at Li Sangyu whose face paled in fear, " Do not try to put the blame on the head of someone else."
No sooner her words fell the Li family's face was filled with grievance and anger. They glared at her harshly and among those glares, one was more prominent than the rest.
" What nonsense!? When did I …you are defaming me!" Min Yan yelled causing Yu Dong to smile at him as she coldly stated, " Your complexion is sallow and your eye bags are sunken which shows that you have a weak body due to early indulgence, if I am not wrong it was around when you were thirteen or maybe even younger ?"
Yu Dong was obviously bluffing as she used her spiritual energy to detect what was the cause of Min Yan's continuous miscarriage and surprisingly she found out that it had to do with him and Li Sangyu's early affair which took place when they were really young.
Min Yan stiffened when he heard Yu Dong's words, at first he thought that she was only trying to muddle the situation but when he saw that Yu Dong saw through him in one glance, he couldn't bring himself to say anything against her.
But when he noticed that the Li family was looking at him and Li Sangyu with a questioning look while Jia Song looked at him with contempt in his eyes, Min Yan knew that he couldn't carry this pot of blame on his head and hurriedly said, " You are speaking nonsense, I have never done anything like that!"
" Then should we call a doctor? You don't have to worry I will pay for it," seeing that he was trying to shirk responsibility, Yu Tong hurriedly joined in the fray causing Min Yan's eyes to turn red in anger as he snapped, " You all are bullying me!"
As he spoke he covered his face and ran away, one could see that he did not have a way to get out of this mess which was why he acted as such. Seeing him run like he was wronged Jia Song sneered, he always knew that mer was nothing good—— seducing someone at such a young age! The Min family really taught their son well.
Even Old Madam Li saw through Min Yan's actions, her expression turned grim as she looked at Old Madam Yu whose face was so dark that ink was dripping out of her face. Seeing this Old Madam Li decided to take a step back and said, " Old Madam Yu, there is no need to make things awkward between us. Why don't you send Yu Le back? We are willing to accept him."
If this goes on then she was sure that the Yu family will shred their dignity until nothing was left.
