Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 532

Madam Yu was able to remain silent but how can Old man Tang remain silent he looked at his wife who just called him a snake and couldn’t help but shout in agitation, ” What do you mean by that? Are you calling me a snake now? How dare you … after treating me like that throughout the years, this is what you are giving me in return? Don’t you forget that I gave you a daughter!”          

    

Grandma Yu didn’t say anything instead she stood up straight and then looked at her husband with a distant look in her eyes as she replied to him calmly after a short pause, ” Old man Tang, do you really not know why I always kept a distance from you throughout the years?”      

Her words caused Old man Tang to suddenly turn silent as he pursed his lips and looked at her with resentment in his eyes, of course, he knew it. Unlike the other two husbands of Old madam Yu, he could never put her first …the two of them were mers who always cared about Old madam Yu but he was born in a family where he didn’t even get a good meal if he wasn’t selfish.      

After so many years his selfishness became an innate part of his existence.      

In his mind, only money was the most important thing in life and because of the way he was raised, he grew pettier and pettier.      

Of course, this was something that he will never admit.     

How can he agree that he was lacking when compared to those bastards?      

Seeing that old man Tang wasn’t saying anything, Grandma Yu scoffed before she turned to look at the village head and said, “It’s fine if I can’t get the house but the money that I earned and the fields that I bought should at least go to me right?”      

” That——”     

” No!” village head Gu did not even get the chance to say anything because a second later she was interrupted by Old man Tang who was clutching his sleeves as he glared at Grandma Yu. ” I have no money, you might as well come here and take my heart out! The situation is like this and we also have the fees of Yu Cheng’s academy, how can I pay for it in case you take the little savings that we have?”      

Though Old man Tang was a mer, he wasn’t a weak and naive mer, he was someone whose wits were intact even at such an old age, while he spoke, the calculating abacus in his head went click clack clack.  His eyes sharply glinted as he looked at his wife and determinedly raised his head, it was all right … he was already embarrassed in front of the villager, then he might as well make a huge fuss and get as many benefits as he can from this divorce.      

” I am just a mer, I have no job and I have no savings either, you suddenly came up with the talk of divorce, it’s like abandoning me in this rain with no shelter over my head, how am I supposed to live? Xiao Ming has her own thing to do and her family to take care of, how am I supposed to live now if you take the money that I have in my hand?” Old man Tang countered at once. ” And why do you need so many fields? You are already so old what can you do in those fields, in your hands those fields are going to rot anyway, so why don’t you take a fourth of those fields, what will you do with half of the fields anyway? I mean at your age having a fourth of our fields is enough already, right?”     

He then paused and said, ” Of course, if you don’t agree then we will not divorce, I am not the one who came up with this talk of divorce after all… if you don’t agree with my requests then we will never divorce!”      

After the villagers finished listening to Old man Tang, they all gasped in surprise and shock. This old man Tang was really not an easy mer, he was basically snatching everything that Grandma Yu has worked hard for and what was more he was forcing her hand by making her choose between two very uncomfortable options.      

” This…isn’t this similar to kicking Grandma Yu with nothing but the clothes on her back?” said one of the villagers to the woman who was standing next to her.     

The woman sneered and scoffed, ” What do you mean by that? Don’t forget that even the clothes that Grandma Yu is wearing belong to Yu Dong.”      

A sudden hush fell upon the crowd as they looked at Old man Tang and Grandma Yu who was in a deadlock. They all could see the disgust and disappointment on Old madam Yu’s face, they, of course, sympathised with her but there was nothing they could do, after all why else had everyone warned them to marry a nice and virtuous mer?      

The old women often told them that it was fine to marry an ugly mer but not a mer who had no virtue.      

The village women collectively heaved a sigh of relief, at least they were not as unlucky as grandma Yu and even if they were…some of them turned to look at their husbands who lowered their heads one after another and sneered, ” Just wait until this rain stops, see how I will set you right.”      

The mers: “…..” Why are we being grounded together with Old man Tang?      

” I see, if that’s the case then——” Grandma Yu saw that her husband was really going to force her into a corner and sighed in disappointment. Fine, since he wanted to take everything then she will let him do it, but she will get a divorce today no matter what, just the thought of staying married to a mer like him was bad enough to make her mouth taste sour.      

” Who says that it’s only grandma who wants to leave the family?” A new voice roared suddenly taking everyone by surprise. ” I want to leave this family as well!”
