Chapter 958: Return what you took ——2
—————Old Madam Yu sneered coldly and then rubbed her fingers on the top of the cane before saying in a low voice, ” You think that after you did all that to my son, I will allow him to come back and live in this house again? You have to be dreaming if you think that he is going to return to this house and live here again!”
This was not something that Old Madam Li was expecting, she frowned at Old Madam Yu and asked, ” If you are not here to bring your son back then what else do you want?”
” I am here only to bring Justice to my son,” Old Madam Yu snapped with a growl rumbling in her chest wishing that she could tear that obnoxious face of Old Madam Li who seemed to be acting as if she was doing nothing wrong. ” When my son married your daughter, he brought ten taels of silver with three weeks worth of meat and three head gears which were made of silver. I want everything back! Including the bolts of fabric that he got from me and my second daughter.”
Because Old Madam Yu felt sorry for her son when he was married off to such a family, she handed him a big dowry. While she added three taels, it was Yu Hai who added the rest of the seven taels making it a total of ten taels —— she even hunted a lot of game adding it to Yu Le’s dowry to make sure that no one will look down on Yu Le ever once he was married.
Of course, Old Madam Yu returned those silver taels to her daughter once she earned them back. But now that she knew that those silver taels only brought comfort to the Li family and nothing but disgrace and suffering to her son, she wanted every single one of them back!
” Here is the list of things that my uncle brought with him,” Yu Dong pushed the list that she made while they were coming to the Li village in front of Old Madam Li and her husband. ” He came with a dowry which was bigger than any of your sons-in-law but he was the one who suffered the most, I don’t think that there is anything fair about it. Which is why to cough up everything that you took.”
Old Madam Li looked at the list and was stunned, she never expected that instead of begging them to take Yu Le back, the Yu family was here to make them take out the dowry which was handed to their family after Yu Le was married!
But before she could even begin speaking, Old Master Li burst into tears and started shouting, ” What do you mean that we need to return the dowry? How can you ask us for something like that? Your son not only gave birth to a jinx, but he also caused us to suffer so much loss! It’s only right that he makes up for it! How can you ask us to hand the dowry back?”
“That’s right, Old Madam Yu,” even Li Sangyu felt that it was too much as she had already handed those silver head gears to Min Yan. ” He lived in my house for so many years how can you——”
Before she could continue, Yu Dong kicked the table in front of her and sent it flying causing the table on which the porcelain cup to tear the roof and then with a loud smash break outside as it fell on the ground.
Her actions caused the entire Li family to be stupefied. It was after a long time that Old Master Li snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Yu Dong as he asked stutteringly, ” What are you doing? What do you think you are doing? Is there any law in this place?”
He was just about to roll on the ground while hitting his thighs but was stopped by Yu Dong who glanced at him coldly and said, ” Make another sound and I will snap your daughter’s arms. This time it was only a table but if you make a fuss it will be your daughter.”
Her words successfully caused Old Master Li to shut up, he looked at Yu Dong as if she was the devil beside him, Old Madam Yu was in just as much shock as her husband as she looked at Yu Dong.
” You…” 𝗇𝒪𝗏ℯ𝓁𝗎𝑠𝑩.𝔠𝞸𝗆
” When I said that we are here to bring the dowry back… I was not asking you,” without letting Old Madam Li continue, she intervened. ” I was telling you, I need you to bring back the dowry out or else I…” she trailed off not saying anything but it only made the Li family shudder.
What…what was she going to do if they didn’t agree?
However, Yu Dong did not say anything after she was done speaking, she turned to look at Li Sangyu and questioned, ” Are you going to hand the dowry on your own? Or should I just take it?”
” You… it is against the law!” Li Sangyu looked at Yu Dong while pretending to be calm.
It only made Yu Dong curl the side of her lips as she said, ” It is but if I break the legs of your entire family who is going to report me?”
Yu Dong was not afraid that the Li family will complain against her as they were in the wrong from the start. Thus, she could casually throw around the threats that she wished to hand to the Li family, as she was not worried at all.
Li Sangyu and the rest of the Li family stiffened, they did not think that Yu Dong would be this arrogant but when they saw the new and expensive clothes on her body, they knew that she was not bluffing. The rich did not fear the poor—— instead, it was the poor people like them who have to tread carefully in front of people like Yu Dong.
