Chapter 953: Fools
Once those words were spoken everyone instinctively took a step back from the Li house. How did they even forget? Almost a month ago Yu Le was kicked out of this house and was left to die if they were not wrong then he must have arrived at his maternal house after a month since he did not even have a single copper coin on him and had to go on foot with his daughter in tow.
If these people were from the Yu family then surely they were not here to wish them new year, were they?
The villagers all took a collective step back and then glanced at the Li family's house with a war expression. Were the people in the Li family crazy? How can they even think of separating from Yu Le when he came from such a rich family?
Yu Dong did not know what was going on in the head of the villagers who were standing behind the carriage, she calmly came down from the inside of the carriage and then looked at the Li house.
" Are you sure that we are at the correct place?" She turned to look at Yu Tong and Old Madam Yu. She thought that the Li family was some sort of rich family for them to make such a fuss but from the looks of it they were not even living a normal life much less a rich one. Yet they dared to kick someone out as if they were some sort of officials? They had to be kidding her.
" Its indeed the correct place," Yu Tong looked at the house in front of her and then stated calmly, " I came here with grandfather when he came to visit uncle last time, though the conditions have gotten even worse than they were back then, its indeed Li Sanyu's house."
The house which Yu Tong spoke about was a small courtyard with only a few thatched huts with roofs that looked like they were going to break any second and at any point. On the left was a chicken coop with an old hen who was too old to lay eggs and on the side of the coop was a bunch of dried hay lying casually.
In the middle of the courtyard was a young girl playing with her toy but she stopped the second Yu Dong and the rest came to stop in front of her house.
Fearsome as she was, she looked at Yu Dong and asked, " Wh...Who are you all? Why are you at Ting Ting's house? "
" Ah, we are here to talk with Li Sangyu, I don't know if she is your aunt or mother," said Yu Dong with a polite smile while looking at the young girl who was standing in front of her. " Can you call her for me?"
As she smiled the little girl felt a chill climb up her spine as she nodded and then turned around to run inside the house. Li Ting did not know who these women were but she did understand that they were not here to have fun with her family.
Especially, the woman in the lead. Her smile was too terrifying!
Yu Dong did not wait for the girl to return as soon as she turned around and rushed inside the house, Yu Dong pushed the door in front of her and then headed inside without caring about the expressions of the onlookers.
From her stance, it was clear that she was not here to have just talked with anyone.
The villagers looked at each other and were quite excited, in the past the Li family had been a bit too haughty given that one of their daughters became a scholar but after becoming an elementary scholar, that girl did not even get another chance to pass the secondary and stayed at the village but even so, the Li family was quite arrogant given that they had a scholar in their family!
But now hehe, it looks like there will be something fun to watch!
Inside the Li house, Li Ting rushed inside to tell her mother, Li Wang that someone was here to look for their family. The second Li Wang heard her daughter's words, she had a bad premonition after all, she was well aware of the fact that no one would come looking for their family especially on the second day of the new year for no reason.
" W..Who came to look for us?" Li Wang's husband, Jia Song asked his daughter.
" I don't know, they came in a big carriage and the aunt asked me to bring Aunt Sangyu, she said that she was here to talk with her," Li Ting relayed Yu Dong's message quite clearly which only made Li Wang's expression to twist as she turned to look at her husband and ordered, " Just go back inside, I have a feeling that this matter is not going to end easily."
Since the woman was here for Li Sangyu, Li Wang knew that this woman came looking for them, most probably because of Yu Le.
Jia Song pursed his lips and then angrily said, " Why do you have to go? Its sister-in-law's a mess, she should be the one to clear it up. I already told you that Yu Le is not someone to be provoked, did you not notice? From the past few months, the quality of rice that his maternal family was sending was better than it was years ago?"
Li Wang also knew that what her husband was saying was right, Yu Le's family most probably made a fortune which was why they could afford such good quality rice but how was she supposed to explain this to her sister?
After marrying their cousin from her father's side, Li Sangyu was like a fool who couldn't understand anything, if Min Yan were to say that the sky was the earth, her sister might agree with him on that too!
" I know what I am doing, you go back inside and don't come out no matter what happens next, all right?" Though Li Wang wanted to hide as well she as the elder daughter couldn't hide behind the shadows like a coward!
