Chapter 4: Pointed at and despised by thousands of people
Liu the matchmaker choked and felt inexplicably flustered: "Your words are really unpleasant to hear. Wang wants you to be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life, and it's also for your own good!"
"Mr. Dong is older than you, auntie."
Liu the matchmaker didn't care: "What's the big deal? A man can still be as vigorous as a tiger after taking drugs."
"When you come into the family, you will be the stepmother. If you can get pregnant, everyone will be happy. If
you can't, you can just pick up a ready-made one." Yu Tingwan said coldly: "Not to mention that the original wife passed away less than a month ago, and the white lanterns of the Dong family haven't been taken down yet. What happened to those concubines he took in in the early years? Each of them was tortured before half a year, and there was not a single piece of good skin on their bodies. They were rolled up in mats and thrown into the mountains to become food for jackals and tigers."
She asked indifferently: "I have no grudges against my aunt, why does my aunt want to harm me?"
Liu the matchmaker smiled: "Look at what you said. Those people died because they were unlucky and could not enjoy happiness. What does it have to do with the squire?"
Yu Tingwan was unwilling to argue with her: "My aunt has matched a lot of people over the years."
"You are a villain with a silver tongue and shameless, and you have done a lot of harm to others. You have pushed many girls from good families into the fire pit."
"The young master of the Wei family has shed blood on the battlefield. If he wakes up and finds out that his sister died after getting married, what will happen to you?"
Liu the matchmaker jumped up and said, "Are you scolding me? Others say that the niece of the Hu family is ill, but I didn't believe it at first. Who am I running around for? Don't be ungrateful!"
She finally understood why Wang hated Yu Tingwan!
This girl is really not likable!
She was so angry that she wanted to leave!
Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. Yu Tingwan's parents are not here, so Wang, her aunt, can make the decision!
Liu the matchmaker was annoyed. This time she really wanted to make this marriage happen!
"If I remember correctly, aunt has been a widow for three years."
Yu Tingwan looked at her furious back, but her eyes were strange.
Who would have thought that this Liu the matchmaker would be caught in bed soon and become a person that everyone would shout and beat.
"I have no children and no ties, so why do you have to stay with me? Just to be praised by the villagers for being loyal and honest, and not remarrying even if your husband dies?"
Liu the matchmaker stopped and was suspicious, thinking that she had something else to say.
Sure enough, Yu Tingwan's words caused a huge uproar: "But how would they know that you and your father-in-law are having an affair secretly."
Liu the matchmaker froze suddenly.
"I don't know if your dirty deeds will be spread out by me accidentally one day."
The cold wind was biting, and she broke out in sweat on her back. She refused to admit it and screamed: "You are talking nonsense!"
Yu Tingwan was curious: "Is your father-in-law taking drugs?"
He was, as fierce as a tiger.
Yu Tingwan continued to ask: "Aunt is so old, why is there still a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water on your bellyband?"
I don't want you to care about my affairs!
Yu Tingwan tilted her head and asked shyly three times: "I don't know why the birthmark on your aunt's butt looks like a butterfly? Not to mention that your father-in-law likes it, I like it too."
How could Yu Tingwan know such a private matter?
Liu the matchmaker almost fainted. She held back her trembling and looked around in panic. Her voice trembled: "Stop talking!"
But the latter smiled and didn't look threatening at all.
Liu the matchmaker felt cold all over and her scalp was numb instantly. How dare she play tricks again?
She squeezed out a sentence with trembling teeth: "Your aunt is vicious and can't tolerate you, so she wants to ruin your second half of life, but I am not like that. That Mr. Dong has already stepped into the coffin. The girl is in her prime, and she should be matched with a talented man."
Yu Tingwan glanced at the sky. Seeing that a problem had been solved, her mood became brighter.
The faint smile on her lips did not diminish. She slowly helped to tidy up the messy hems, which made Liu the matchmaker's body tremble three times.
"Auntie is not a good person, but you should also consider the consequences of being criticized and despised by thousands of people, right?"
The matchmaker is very good at observing people's words and expressions, so how could she not know her intentions? She concealed the fear that spread from her heart inch by inch: "What do you want me to do?"
The weather was cold and the river was covered with thick ice.
The sky was gloomy and it snowed for three days in a row. Everywhere was white, and you would sink deeply into the ground and your shoes and socks would be soaked.
After the quarrel with Wang, Yu Tingwan had no intention of making peace.
After her strike, Wang was really tired these days!!!
She had to be busy inside and outside! She was reluctant to order little Xu around, fearing that something bad might happen to the grandson in her belly.
Seeing Yu Tingwan appear again with a bowl at mealtime, Wang was furious and wished she could eat this little bitch alive.
Be patient, be patient, the Dong family will reply soon.
This meal was bean rice, with only a few grains of rice, all beans.
The soybeans were soaked for a short time, and Wang was reluctant to add oil, so it was choking to eat.
Yu Tingwan spit out a small stone expressionlessly.
This was the third one she had spit out.
But if she didn't eat, she would be hungry, she frowned and took another bite.
Little Xu poked it with chopsticks. She still liked the food cooked by Yu Tingwan, at least it was edible. But Yu Tingwan was a thorn now, so how could she dare to let her cook.
She looked at Yu Tingwan cautiously, and she had to know her own weight when living under someone else's roof.
If she were Yu Tingwan, she would have knelt down and kowtowed to Wang to admit her fault.
In the past, Yu Tingwan didn’t necessarily please Wang, but she was respectful. Wang made things difficult for her,
but she never got angry. I wonder what’s wrong with her these days?
“Why are you looking at me, sister-in-law?”
Are you looking for death?
But Xiao Xu was afraid of her: “Nothing.”
Yu Tingwan nodded seriously: “Ah? Sister-in-law thinks the food cooked by my aunt tastes like pig food?”
Xiao Xu tensed up: ???
You can see that too?
Wang: !!!
Yu Tingwan frowned: "Yes, my aunt's cooking skills are not good, but sister-in-law can go out and ask, which mother-in-law is busy taking care of her daughter-in-law? It's so cold, my aunt doesn't want to get her hands wet and freeze when washing the soybeans, and she can't bear to pour the soaked water directly into the pot, so you eat stones, or it doesn't suit my taste, can't you bear it?"
"Sister-in-law, don't be stupid, it's okay if you don't eat, but what if the child is hungry?"
Seeing the guilty panic in Xiao Xu's eyes, Wang had difficulty breathing. Since
ancient times, there have been conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
She knew clearly that Yu Tingwan was provoking, but she couldn't help but think more!
She stared at Xiao Xu, with a sneer on her face.
"Isn't it just unclean? Can it kill people?"
"Do you really think I won't teach you a lesson if you have something in your stomach?"
Little Xu's heart trembled: "Mother, I don't. I just have no appetite."
Wang didn't believe it at all, and poked her hard with her fingertips: "Who do you think you are?"
"I can let Dalang marry you, and I can also let him divorce you after you give birth! His younger brother is promising, so why worry about not being able to find a wife?"
Little Xu's face was pale.
Yu Tingwan's mind was as clear as a mirror. In order to support Hu Yaozu's studies, the Hu family had no money to marry Hu Dalang.
There was a drought, and many people starved to death that year.
Little Xu was exchanged by Wang for a bag of rice.
Hu Dalang always disliked her appearance, and she was scared.
But where is this?
Yu Tingwan hid her sarcasm and said slowly: "Okay, what are you talking about, aunt? My sister-in-law is pregnant with the child of the Hu family, don't scare her."
"Look at her pale face, if my cousin sees it..."
Yu Tingwan smiled and told the truth.
"Oh, he won't feel bad."
