Chapter 1138: Hand me the money or I will torment him
Everything was ready at the mall, they just needed to wait until the smell of concrete, and new wood left before they could start running the mall. Yu Dong had already handed the task of appointing servers and workers to her assistant, Gu Ke Xin who worked at the mer bar with her.
Other than her, Yu Dong did not dare to leave such an important task in the hands of anyone else. With the employees getting appointed, she only needed to wait for a while until it was done.
Around noon, Yu Dong asked her husbands to follow her to the Song restaurant. But as soon as their carriage was pulled, they heard a harsh and snappy voice from the front of the Song restaurant.
" I say Yixu, you should at least be respectful to us. You own such a big restaurant and you only handed us ten taels? This is not done. Your sister-in-law needs to hand the bridegroom price to the mer of her liking, you should at least give us a hundred taels!"
Yu Dong arched a brow as she pushed the door of the carriage and then stared at the mer who was speaking. He was a middle-aged mer, with long black hair and a mean sharp face at that moment, he was standing at the foot of the restaurant and speaking to Song Yixu who stood outside the restaurant.
" If she is going to hand the bridegroom price what does it have to do with me? You all have refused to let me marry Nan for years and because of you, I have turned an old woman from a young one. You still want me to hand you a hundred taels because your daughter wants to get married? You might as well be dreaming!" Song Yixu snapped at the mer who stiffened.
" Now, you are being rude," though the mer stiffened, he still tried to smoothen things. He blinked his eyes and then flatteringly said, " Once this marriage is done, we can think about your and Nan's marriage. There is no need for you to get angry like this just help us this once."
Song Yixu frowned and then looked at the mer in front of her before saying harshly, "My money does not come from just anywhere and I am no longer the sixteen-year-old little girl whom you can fool, Master Ying. I know well enough that after taking a hundred taels you will do the same thing, you will make excuses about how you want to keep Ah Nan at home and want him to do this and that for you.
You have done this many times, in the past, it was for Ying Liuxi's studies and then it was for her business and now it's for her marriage. What will be in the future for her children?"
" Do I have to raise her children for her now?" Song Yixu questioned sternly causing Master Ying's face to turn red. Indeed he thought that he could continue like this, after all, Song Yixu loved Ying Nan who saved his life when she was injured and thrown into their village to die.
Never did he think that she who used to listen to him without any fuss would act so stubborn.
He pinched his wife on the waist and asked her to say something, just how long was she going to stay quiet? Could she not see that Song Yixu was not willing to take money out for them? They have promised their daughter that they would give her the best wedding and even a house if Song Yixu did not take money out then how would they do all of those things?
Madam Ying did not want to fight with Song Yixu, something about this calm and gentle scholarly woman scared her. Especially those sharp eyes but she could not ignore her husband as well because he would surely scold her once they got back home and once her husband started scolding he would not shut up at all which would be really annoying and disturb her sleep.
Thus, she opened her mouth and then said, " Yixu, I know that you are angry but Nan Nan is my son. How can I do anything to harm him? Just give us money this time, I promise that I will seriously think about your marriage with him."
" Heh," Song Yixu sneered after hearing Madam Ying's words. " And just how many times have you promised me this?"
Madam Ying turned silent, she had indeed said these things many times in the past but she was the mother of Ying Nan! As Song Yixu wanted to marry him, she should at least listen to what she was saying to her, as she was her elder!
Old Master Ying got angry when he saw that Song Yixu was not listening to him, he glared at Song Yixu and nastily said, " Are you sure that you want to make things nasty like this, Yixu? Don't forget that Nan lives with us! If you don't want him to suffer, you should hand us the money without any fuss."
When Song Yixu heard Old Master Ying's words, her fingers clenched instinctively on the other hand Old Master Ying was really proud of himself. He knew that with this Song Yixu would have no other choice but to listen to him, even if he were to hike the price and tell her to hand him two hundred taels then she would definitely hand it to him.
He opened his mouth to say that now he wanted two hundred taels when a voice interrupted him.
" Old Master Ying, what are you doing here? Does Da Qiao know that you are here?"
Yu Dong looked at the mer with a heavy gaze, she had seen him in the village next to her when she was visiting Da Qiao and from what she heard, this mer was the biggest sh*t stirrer in the Big Mountain Village. The last time she saw him, he was berating a young mer and from the looks of it, he was the Ying Nan everyone was talking about. Discover hidden content at m,v l'e|m-p| y r
