“It’s not that I don’t love my youngest daughter. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to raise her properly, since she’s destined to be someone else’s daughter.”
“But Shuisheng’s mother passed away early. Before she died, she told me to take good care of Shuisheng and to tell her at her grave after he got married and had children, so that she could close her eyes in peace.”
“My lord, I was just trying to find a decent wife for my son, Shuisheng. I was even going to ask someone to help him find one. But he suddenly came back and said he wanted to marry the eldest daughter of the Yang family. He said they were truly in love and that if he couldn’t marry that Yang girl, he would rather remain a bachelor for life and never get married.”
"Your Excellency, County Magistrate, it's not that I'm exposing my shortcomings, but my son has a slight leg difference in length. Although it doesn't affect our daily life, he still walks with a limp. As you can see at a glance, my family is truly poor!"
"Except during the busy farming season when we have no choice but to eat something dry, we usually eat bran and vegetables, and we can't bear to eat more than a bite."
"Yang Youfu's family is one of the wealthiest in the surrounding villages. Even when it's not a holiday or busy farming season, they can eat plain rice every day. They live a good life, and he's the village head of Yangjia Village. In terms of social standing, our humble family is definitely not worthy of him. If he hadn't been scheming against my Yunduo, would he have sent his eldest daughter to seduce my son? Would he have agreed to a marriage alliance with our family?"
"Who seduced your son!" Hearing Yun Youliang and Zhao Cuifen's words, Yang Youfu also became anxious and hurriedly interrupted Yun Youliang, saying loudly, "Yun Youliang, Zhao Cuifen, watch your mouths! My daughter is innocent and upright. She usually lowers her head when she sees a stranger. How could she do such a shameless thing?"
“Yun Youliang, you may be shameless, but I, Yang Youfu, still have a sense of shame! It was clearly your son who clung to my eldest sister like a lapdog, swearing that he would treat her well for the rest of his life, making us think he was someone we could entrust our daughter to. I also felt sorry for your youngest daughter and wanted to take her home and raise her as my own, so that she wouldn't be tortured to death by you two heartless parents. That's why I had no choice but to agree to the marriage with your family. How did it become scheming against your family in your mouth?”
"If I had known you would be like this, I would have kept my younger sister at home for the rest of my life, and supported her for the rest of my life, rather than give her to your family!"
Hearing Yang Youfu say this, Yun Youliang was no longer in such a hurry. He just sneered and said, "You're raising her like a daughter, huh? If you really were raising her like a daughter, would your son call my daughter 'wife'? And yet, every time he comes to my house, he grabs my daughter and won't let go, calling her 'wife' all the time?"
As he spoke, he shouted at Yang Youfu's mentally challenged son, "Delin, why aren't you bringing your wife home? She might run off with someone else!"
"Yun Youliang! You shameless!" Hearing Yun Youliang shout at his son, Yang Youfu's face immediately turned ugly. He really didn't expect Yun Youliang to be so cunning, directly using his son as a pretext. At the same time, he secretly hoped that his wife could stop his son and prevent him from falling into Yun Youliang's trap.
It's just a pity...
Upon hearing Yun Youliang's shout, Yang Erwa seemed startled and rushed towards Duo, panting, shouting, "Wife, let's go home, wife, let's go home!"
