Chapter 530: House under my name!
” Mother is this really necessary,” Madam Yu was really shocked when her father pushed her mother to hang by the edge of the cliff, she knew that her mother will be enraged maybe she will even refuse to talk to them.Madam Yu thought that no matter what her mother was a patient woman and she wouldn’t even think about breaking her family after all she has been suffering under her father for years and has never even mentioned a single word about separation but now …. not once did she think that her mother would actually ask for a divorce from her father!
Even Qiu Bai was shocked, in his view, his mother-in-law has always been a hen-pecked wife, always listening to what his father-in-law said, he didn’t think that she would actually bring out the matter of divorce for something so simple, they only left her to hang by the edge of the roof for a few hours was this really necessary? After all, Yu Cheng was their precious treasure, as long as he succeeded in the tongsheng exams there was no need for them to even so much lower their heads in front of Yu Dong or anyone from her family.
Why was it that his mother-in-law couldn’t even withstand something so small? Why was she acting like some rich lady and throwing a fuss?
Grandma Yu smiled at her daughter and mused, ” Is this necessary? Of course, it is, today you all pushed me to the edge of death, if not for Dong Dong who still had some filial piety left in her, I might be already knocking on the doors of king Yama.”
Leaving her life in the hands of her husband and daughter was simply handing them a butcher knife and asking them to chop her neck up!
” Wife, are you really being serious? Do you really want to divorce me?” Old man Yu might have set his gaze on another woman from the village but he still didn’t want to be repudiated like this, at most he wanted to become a widower such that no one would gossip about him like this but if he was divorced and that too this humiliatingly then he might lose more than Grandma Yu! ” Can’t we sit down and talk about this calmly, or has Yu Dong said something to you? If so then don’t let her instigate you, I have been with you for so many years, believe me, I am doing this for the good of our family!”
Grandam Yu was too tired to deal with this husband of hers, she already knew that he has been getting cosy with that woman who lost her husbands one after another many called her a jinx but since she was young and charming it was no wonder that mers were still attracted to her and her husband was one of those very few mers who were charmed by that woman, but they have been married for so many years and she didn’t like the idea of wearing a green hat on top of her head at such an old age, she decided to hold this information back for now.
It was better not to make a joke out of their family than they already have.
She took a breath, ignored the members of the Yu family and turned to Village head Gu before speaking in a raspy voice, ” Village head Gu please.” She told her all about how she was being treated at the house by her wife and daughter, even when her daughter’s face turned pale from the anger she didn’t stop, now she no longer cared what happened to the three of them because she didn’t want to make things difficult for Yu Cheng who has done nothing wrong for now, she refrained from commenting on him, in the end, she simply shook her head and despondently added, ” Old man Tang, after what you have done, I don’t think that this decision of mine should come to you as a surprise, so please hand the deeds of the house and the money that I earn back to me, as for the farming fields I will leave half of them to you, consider this as the last of my feelings for you.”
Old man Tang understood that the matter was beyond reparation, even if he tried to mend their relationship now it will be impossible and what was more, he glanced at Grandma Yu and clicked his tongue inwardly. Grandma Yu was no longer as beautiful as she was when she was young, she looked like an old woman when she was still in her late sixties, some women were older than her yet they looked so good. Especially, the eye candy he was talking with these days…. Compared to her Grandma Yu was nothing good and more importantly, she was no longer as sturdy as she was before, couldn’t even make half the money she used to when she was young, even if she didn’t die after being left in the water for so long, her body was definitely going to get much weaker than before and she would not be able to do heavy jobs anymore.
Just look at those sunken eyes and slouching body!
He lowered his head and the cogs in his head started to turn as he thought of this and that before coming to a conclusion as his eyes ominously flashed before he raised his head without any guilt and regret and announced, ” The house cannot go to you because the house has already been signed under the name of my daughter and since my daughter is going to live with me then naturally the house will go with me!”
His announcement came as a surprise not only to the villagers but even to Grandma Yu who has never heard of this before, she turned to look at her daughter who was looking anywhere but her and was surprised to see the guilt covering her face as she blinked her eyes and asked, ” Did you..did you really … get the house officially stamped under your name?”
