Chapter 134: I’ll Hit You With Money
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The five members of the Yu family sat at the square table with Guo Dayou and his wife. Guo Xianqiao stayed in the room with her sister, who had fainted several times, in case she committed suicide.
After hearing Guo Dayou’s words, the Yu family members stopped eating. Even the three-year-old Little Zhenzhen widened her eyes and looked at Guo Dayou.
Guo Dayou ignored the gaze of a three-year-old child, but he could not ignore the reactions of Uncle and Aunt.
He glanced at the two of them and said righteously, “Big Sister, I’m not making empty promises. Brother-in-law was also there at that time. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Brother-in-law if the two elders have decided on Little Feng and Yue’er’s marriage.”
Aunt looked at her husband, and Uncle fell silent.!!
There was indeed such a thing. At Ah Wan’s babyshower, Yu Feng was only around Little Zhenzhen’s age. Du Jinhua had just gotten pregnant and the two old men had drunk too much. Coincidentally, Yu Feng pointed at Du Jinhua’s stomach and asked, “Is it a younger brother or sister?”
The two old men teased Little Yu Feng. “If it’s a sister, how about she be your wife?”
What would a three-year-old know?
Old Master Yu asked him, “Do you want it?”
Little Yu Feng opened his mouth. “Yes.”
The two old men were overjoyed. They drank a few more glasses and teased the silly Yu Feng by saying a lot of child’s words.
These were drunk words. Who would really take them to heart? After they sobered up, the two old men probably forgot that their uncle and Guo Dayou were sober, but Guo Dayou had always looked down on the Yu family and pretended to be deaf and mute. Uncle would not rush to stick his warm face to their cold buttocks, so he did not say anything.
After so many years of peace, Guo Xianyue had become a famous beauty. The people who came to propose marriage were about to break through the Guo family’s threshold. Yu Feng was still a poor boy, and the Yu family had no intention of climbing up the ranks with this so-called “marriage”.
If the Guo family had come to propose marriage earlier, Uncle would not have denied it. Even if it was a few days ago, the Yu family’s days had already improved and they were no longer considered to be climbing the social ladder. The couple would have acknowledged this marriage, But the Guo couple only remembered Yu Feng’s “goodness” when she was forced to marry Wang Mazi. What did they take Yu Feng for? What did they take the Yu family for?
Seeing that Uncle was silent, Guo Dayou’s face darkened. “You aren’t pretending to be deaf and mute, are you? You and I weren’t the only ones at the table at that time. Brother-in-law was also there. If you don’t believe me, let’s call him over.”
“Guo Dayou!” Without waiting for her husband to speak, Aunt was the first to flare up. She had tolerated this younger brother of hers for a long time. When he was young, he bullied her. When he grew up, he looked down on her. When she returned to her maternal family, he hid all the good things tightly, afraid that she would benefit from it. He never thought about her benefits, but he had to drag her son to clean up his mess. How could there be such a good thing in this world!
“Don’t you always say that my son is bad, inferior to the son of the Luo family in every aspect? Your daughter is out of our Yu family’s reach, so it’s better to leave her to the Luo family!”
How could Guo Dayou dare to tell the truth at this time? He looked at his aunt solemnly and said, “Big Sister, you’re wronging me. When did I say that Little Feng is inferior to the son of the Luo family?”
Aunt was furious at her shameless brother. “Your mouth is on your face. It’s whatever you want to say!”
“Big Sister!”
“Stop arguing!” Uncle said in a deep voice.
Aunt and Guo Dayou stopped arguing.
Uncle looked at Yu Feng and said, “Do you like Yue’er?”
Yu Feng opened his mouth.
Du Jinhua said, “How can he not like her? These two are so compatible! I’m not bragging, but there’s no girl more beautiful than Yue’er in this village!”
“Then can you find a better-looking man than my brother?” Yu Wan walked in unhurriedly and glanced indifferently at Du Jinhua and Guo Dayou. “Don’t you dare have any ideas about my brother. When we were poor, you didn’t marry your daughter over. You only let my brother take over when her reputation was ruined. Do you think we’re stupid?”
Du Jinhua was furious. “You… you… how can you speak like that! Yue’er is your cousin!”
“Yu Feng is still my big brother! If she can be my cousin in peace, I will naturally treat her well. But there’s no way for her to be my sister-in-law!” Yu Wan did not hate Guo Xianyue, but it did not mean that she agreed to sacrifice Yu Feng to help the Guo family.
“Don’t take your undeserved gain for granted! My daughter is so beautiful. If she didn’t have an accident, why would she marry into your family?” Du Jinhua was so angry that she spoke without thinking. However, this was also what she was thinking. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said it so smoothly.
Aunt was furious. She originally sympathized with Guo Xianyue, but after Du Jinhua’s actions, she immediately felt that she deserved it!
Yu Wan said indifferently, “Whoever wants to take advantage of her will take it. In short, my brother doesn’t want it!”
Du Jinhua was trembling with anger. “You… you… you really think your brother can marry a good wife? He’s already so old and has achieved nothing. It’s his fortune that I’m willing to marry my daughter to him! If you don’t believe me, try it. Any girl who’s half as beautiful as my Yue’er won’t be willing to marry him!”
“Who said that?”
A spoiled voice sounded at the door.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young girl in pink. She was wearing a pair of pearl embroidered shoes, a thin white dress, and a soft pink pipa blouse. Her black hair was tied into a beautiful hairstyle, with a pair of hollow purple jade hairpins. She wore a gold necklace around her neck and a gold bracelet on her wrist.
Even a blind person could tell that this outfit was expensive, let alone her appearance. She was really not inferior to Guo Xianyue!
She walked in with a noble expression.
Du Jinhua instantly felt a powerful pressure.
However, this pressure disappeared when she walked to Yu Feng’s side. She looked at Yu Feng bitterly. “I was wondering why you didn’t come to propose marriage after so long. So it’s because a little vixen came to your house!”
Yu Feng, who was dumbfounded: “…”
The dumbfounded crowd: “…”
Bai Tang went into the room to take a look at the unconscious Guo Xianyue. After she came out, she stomped her feet at Yu Feng and said, “I thought she was some kind of fairy. But she’s just so-so! Firstly, she’s not as beautiful as me, and secondly, she’s not as rich as me. Most importantly, she’s older than me! You’d rather have an old lady than me! Could it be that you think my dowry is too little? Then I’ll add another thousand taels! This way, you can marry me!”
Yu Feng spat out a mouthful of tea.
Du Jinhua and Guo Dayou’s legs went limp and they collapsed under the table.
