Chapter 48 Liu really wants to remarry

The two people who came out from behind the firewood pile were a man and a woman. I didn’t recognize the man, but the woman was Liu, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.

Liu looked a little haggard, with red eyes, and it was obvious that the crying just now came from her.

As a matter of etiquette, Yu Hongdou should have taken the initiative to greet the other party. However, as things have come to this point, although she seems to have reconciled with the first wife, she has not reconciled with Liu.

Yu Hongdou dared to say that after Liu gave birth to a child, her father and brother would have to find a way to make Liu suffer a great loss before they could get even.

Yu Hongdou didn't say anything. Her eyes moved around the other two people's arms, which they hurriedly loosened after seeing the old man, and then she stood quietly beside the old man.

"Master~" Liu was probably feeling a little guilty, and she stammered for a while before calling out in a low voice.

"Well, what is this?" Old Master Yu nodded reluctantly, stared at the man next to Liu, and asked in a low voice.

"It's my cousin from my aunt's family who sent me back." After saying this, Liu seemed to have thought of something and glared at Yu Hongdou who was standing next to the old man.

If it weren't for this unlucky star, she wouldn't have been sent to her aunt's house by her family to hide in shame.

Aunt Liu's husband is a broker, whose main job is to introduce business to others and make some commission from it.

They look like middlemen, but they have no formal business location or license, so they can only take advantage of loopholes by cheating.

It was also because of Liu's uncle that she got to know the traveling merchant.

At first, Liu's uncle took the traveling merchant around. The traveling merchant heard that Taoyuan Village had beautiful scenery, so he said he wanted to stay for two days. When he saw Liu, he was impressed by her good looks.

When he heard that she was pregnant and had been sent back by her husband's family, he sympathized with her and told her that he was infertile and wanted to marry Liu.

This is why Yu Zhen went home to call for help, and finally made a scene of wanting to exchange his wife for a baby.

Originally, the Liu family was still struggling. After all, Liu had not been divorced nor divorced, and she was still nominally called the daughter-in-law of the Yu family.

The Liu family was reluctant to give up their wealth as a merchant, so the other party promised to pay ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift. If Liu gave birth to a boy in the future, he would pay another ten taels of silver as a wedding gift.

The Liu family was very excited, but if the whole family wanted to live in the village, they couldn't just ignore everything.

When the Liu family was in a dilemma, the traveling merchant asked Yu Sanlang, who was awakened by Yu Hongdou's words, to report it.

After all, that merchant had used money to buy a lot of connections and information, and when he heard the news, he found an excuse to run away.

The Liu family was in a state of chaos, so they blamed Liu and despised her for bringing shame upon the family. In desperation, Liu could only follow her mother's advice and take shelter at her aunt's house.

This was also because the third branch of the Yu family was in a hurry to build a house, and the first branch quietly leaked the news and gave in, so the Liu family asked Liu to come back and wait for the Yu family to pick them up.

Yu Hongdou knew nothing about all this. She had never thought about why she lived in the same village without even seeing the shadow of Liu. In front of her was her elder cousin who lived in the same courtyard with her but whom she might not see even once a day, and behind her was herself who had not yet walked through the entire village.

Not to mention that we haven't seen each other for a while, she is five years old now, and she may not have met everyone in the village.

Yu Hongdou was a little angry at the moment. She didn't know whether this so-called cousin Liu was genuine or not, but it was true that he didn't know manners.

After Liu's introduction, he just nodded and greeted the old man proudly without even saying a word.

"Sister-in-law, is your cousin a mute?" Yu Hongdou asked indignantly.

She was not happy with Liu, and she also looked down on this man's pretentious appearance.

The man was touched by Yu Hongdou, but he was not angry. Instead, he raised his hand with a smile and wanted to touch Yu Hongdou's head. He was stopped by Mr. Yu, who then said directly:

"You little girl are so sharp-tongued. No wonder my cousin is at a disadvantage. I won't bother with you."

"Master Yu, since we have met, I will tell you straight, my cousin will not return to your Yu family. My cousin is a young girl and you have treated her so harshly. You should give her five taels of silver as compensation. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other's marriage."

"As for the baby in my cousin's belly, you can either wait for it to be born and take it away, or if you want my cousin to take it with her and remarry, you will have to compensate her with another five taels."

After the man finished speaking, he stood there with his legs shaking, waiting for Mr. Yu to reply.

"That's Yu Jie and Yu Zhen's business. You go discuss it with them yourselves. An old man like me can't interfere." Old Man Yu's face turned pale. He stared at the man for several times, but in the end did nothing.

Yu Hongdou knew that the old man was really angry. He cursed at him in his heart and even wanted to kill him.

Through the contact during this period, she finally figured out why her father, Yu Sanlang, was so clever and vindictive. In fact, he inherited the old man's petty nature.

A beggar who was an orphan was favored by the owner of a herbal medicine shop, who raised him like his own son, and not only saved his assets during his escape, but also made a small fortune. Can he be a simple person?

Anyway, Yu Hongdou felt that she couldn't do it.

After the old man said this, he no longer paid attention to the two people opposite him, and quickly left with his granddaughter. Raindrops were already falling at this time.

"Master, Liu, um, my sister-in-law, are you really not coming back?" Yu Hongdou looked back as she walked.

"Well, she won't be allowed to come back. Your elder brother doesn't want her anyway." When Mr. Yu mentioned this, he was no longer angry but relieved.

He had been afraid that Liu's affairs would affect the family's reputation and implicate the third and fourth sons. Now that Liu took the initiative to leave home, it would help his eldest grandson who was always thinking about other people.

"Then should we marry that cousin to our eldest brother?" Yu Hongdou couldn't remember the name of the girl that her eldest cousin liked.

"No matter, whether he wants to marry or not, he is already a grown-up, he has parents and his grandparents are old. It's not worth it to meddle in his business and make others hate him." The old man shook his head.

As a father, he has done his best to be kind and righteous to his eldest brother's family.

Although he said that, the old man was still a little sad when he entered the house and told his wife about this.

"Old woman, the old saying is still right. The emperor loves his eldest son, and the people love their youngest son. If we had believed this at the beginning, perhaps this would not have happened today." The old man sighed.

Even the emperor cannot avoid valuing his eldest son, let alone Mr. Yu. To him, the eldest son is not only the eldest son who will set up a family in the future, but also his first legitimate relative in the world, which is something even his wife cannot do.

"In fact, it's because I didn't marry the right wife, old man. I'm not trying to defend the eldest brother. Zhang is powerful and short-sighted, so she only knows how to be clever. She can't compare to Sun's planning, and she can't compare to Xu's dignified and talented. I was wrong in the first place." The old lady sighed and blamed herself.

When she was a girl, she often heard her mother say that a good wife brings less trouble to her husband, and a good mother brings prosperity to three generations.

The Zhang family has always maintained a good reputation in the village, just like their son who looks honest and capable but is actually too lazy to get sores.

The old couple sighed to each other, and finally concluded that whether their child would be good or bad was determined by fate, and at their age, they should just not worry about anything, live their own lives well, and not cause trouble for their descendants.

Yu Hongdou didn't know that her grandparents were reflecting and lamenting about this matter. She was now running impatiently to her new home.

The gossip that Liu is going to remarry is so big that she has to be the first to tell her parents so that they can celebrate (gloat over their misfortune)!
