Chapter 847: Sell a child?
Old Madam Shen’s pupils contracted when she turned around and looked at Yu Dong who was standing behind her with a disapproving expression on her face as she looked at Shen Li and Old Madam Shen.” Did I not tell you to stay inside the house? Why did you come out?” She questioned Shen Li and Ye Liu because Old Madam Shen was in front of her, she used an extremely cold and impassive voice which caused the guards as well as some women who were heading back to their houses to have lunch to pause and turn to look at the drama which was happening at the village entrance.
What happened? Why was Yu Dong angry at her husbands?
The villagers could not be blamed for being nosy after all, they all have seen Yu Dong pampering Shen Li and the rest like she wished to hold them in the palm of their hands while keeping them close all the time, this was the first time they have seen her scolding her husbands and that too in such an angry manner.
Some of the mers who came outside of the house to bring lunch to their mother and sisters became rather excited when they saw Yu Dong scolding Shen Li and Ye Liu, now that Yu Dong was angry at her husbands, did they have a chance of getting together with her?
However, no one had the time to worry about the little thoughts that these mers had in their heads, currently the entire Big River Village was watching the unfolding drama at the village entrance with great interest.
“Daughter-in-law, don’t blame, Ah Li. He is just being filial to me and nothing else,” seeing that Yu Dong was displeased with Shen Li giving her money, Old Madam Shen cursed her a hundred times in her head. It was just a small sum of ten taels but this woman was acting like her son was signing away her property under his mother’s name.
Old Madam Shen thought that if she made use of filial piety, Yu Dong will have nothing to say to her but she seemed to have underestimated Yu Dong, who arched a brow and shot her an annoyed look which caused Old Madam Shen to feel a bit uncomfortable, ” Who are you and why does he need to be filial to you? Have you forgotten that you were the one who sold him to my family?”
” I told you in the market that the paper you signed clearly states that you and Shen Li will no longer have any relationship once he marries over to my family, you agreed to that condition did you not?” nov𝑬𝓵𝑢𝓈𝑩/𝒸/o\𝓶
She then turned to look at Shen Li with her eyes squinted and a chilly look in them as she added, ” And you! You have done nothing worthy of handing those ten taels away, who gave you the right to hand your mother the money that I earned with my blood, sweat and tears? If you want to give my money to your family then you can pack your bags and get lost! I might be rich but I am not earning money to raise leeches!”
” No…No… wife, that’s not it,” Shen Li immediately lowered his head when he saw Yu Dong scold him it made him remember those days when the previous Yu Dong used to scold him.
Even though he knew that she was just pretending, her voice was cold and sounded like it was filled with unhidden threats and uncertainty which scared him.
His eyes could not help but turn red as he sniffed and said, ” Where will I go if you kick me out? I will work hard so please…”
When Yu Dong saw that she had scared Shen Li, she panicked a little. Maybe she used too much force while scolding him but she needed to teach a good lesson to the Shen mother and daughter pair which was why she could only continue with her pretence as she ignored the sense of guilt and acted calmly,
” You hear that, he does not want to leave my house. And unless he leaves my house, you cannot take the money which I earned!” She scolded Old Madam Shen and Shen Hanxing fiercely. ” Now get lost from here, if you show me your face again then…” she raised her hand and clenched it in a fist before waving it in front of Old Madam Shen. ” You will not have a good ending.”
Facing such a hard-hearted woman, Old Madam Shen did not have any idea how to snatch the money from her son. What kind of woman was this, even if her son did not give her an heir, the two of them have stayed together for years! How can she talk about divorcing her son so easily?
Though Old Madam Shen had many complaints, she could not voice even one as Yu Dong asked the guards to open the barricade and then had the mammy drive the carriage along with the carts which held a bunch of livestock in them.
” Now are you waiting for me to sign the divorce agreement?” Yu Dong snapped at Shen Li as she slapped him on the back of his head, though the sound was loud, Yu Dong knew that she had controlled her strength and movement such that it will only make an alarming sound and would not hurt Shen Li. ” Go back home with me, the situation outside is scary enough and you want to hand out money? What an idiotic mer, if you do something so idiotic again, I will kick you out of my house, get it?”
” Yes, I am sorry…” Shen Li replied as he looked at Yu Dong who was too into her role but was still taking care of him. ” I will follow you back home.”
He then turned to look at Old Madam Shen and shot her a helpless look as a finishing touch before chasing after his wife like an obedient mer.
