Chapter 955: More useless than a broken cane
" Old Madam Li," with a cold expression Old Madam Yu turned to look at the old woman who had once promised her that she will keep her son happy and protected. Her hands clenched the cane which Yu Dong made for her and then slowly turned to face the Li family as she said sternly, " I hope I was not disturbing you all. If not for the thing that happened with my son, I wouldn\'t have thought of bothering you or myself either. I believe you will not find my visit unwanted right?"On her side, Min Yan who saw Yu Dong and the rest of the Yu family looking like rich landlords, a sudden bad premonition rose in his heart. He knew that this time things were not going to go well for him which was why he hurriedly grasped Li Sanyu\'s hand, hoping that his wife will protect him from the Yu family\'s wrath.
But at the same time, he cursed Yu Le in his heart, that damned mer! He walked for a month in this cold weather but still survived? Why did he not die on the side of a street when he was heading to his village? Why did he arrive at the Big River Village safe and sound? If he died then they could have at least shirk responsibility!
Now look at what he had done!
Li Sangyu saw the little actions of her husband and knew that he was scared which was why she patted him on the back of his hand before turning to look at Yu Dong and speaking forcefully as if she was not afraid, " Is there something the matter? For you all to visit us on the second day of the new year?"
\' Oh look at the shameless woman,\' Yu Dong thought in her head as she turned to look at Li Sangyu who was acting brave. With her lips curled in a smile, she looked at Li Sangyu and then said in an unhurried manner, " Yes we are here to bring the culprit responsible for hurting a child in front of the magistrate. If you will be kind enough, please step aside."
" Wife…" When Min Yan heard that Yu Dong and the rest were here to bring him in front of the magistrate, he was terrified. Even though he was a tyrant at his home, he was scared of outsiders. Thus the second Yu Dong asked Li Sangyu to step aside such that she can take him to the magistrate, he was scared out of his wits!
" What nonsense! What wrong did Ah Yan even do for you to bring him to the magistrate?" When Yu Le said that Li Sangyu was possessed by his cousin he was not lying and thus, Yu Dong was not even surprised when she saw the woman protecting Min Yan.
Not at all offended, Yu Dong turned to look at Li Sangyu and then smiled softly before saying, "I am not saying that I am only here to bring your husband to the magistrate alone when I said that I am here to bring you to the magistrate. I meant your entire family, I only asked you to step aside because I wanted to see just what kind of bewitching magic your husband has that he turned you a fool.."
Her words caused the entire Li family to stiffen, even Jia Song who was hiding inside the house couldn\'t stay inside and came running out of his courtyard and then said loudly, " Why will you bring the entire family to the magistrate? My wife, Li Wang had nothing to do with what happened to Yu Le, it is all because of Li Sangyu and Min Yan! My wife on the other hand told them not to do anything to harm Yu Le!"
" Jia Song!" When Old Master Li saw that Jia Song was pushing the blame on his second daughter, he immediately grew dissatisfied but this time around Jia Song\'s fighting spirit had been ignited, he looked at his father-in-law and then said in a stubborn voice, " What? Did I say anything wrong? My wife and I told you all that you shouldn\'t treat Yu Le so harshly and now that this situation has come up, do you still think that you can push the responsibility on my wife\'s head? Over my dead body!"
He then turned to look at his wife and then said, " If you dare to take this blame, I will take my daughters and son to the river in the village and jump inside it!"
Jia Song was well aware of her in-laws\' habit every time something happened, they would push his wife to deal with it even though it was Li Sangyu and Li Wuying who were in the wrong. In the past he did not say anything because all those matters were small and could easily deal with but now that the Yu family was here to bring Li Sangyu and her husband in front of the magistrate, how can he allow his wife to be entangled?!
Old Master Li indeed wanted to ask his elder daughter to do something as Li Sangyu was his beloved daughter ever since she was born only good things happened in their family unlike Li Wang who gave him a lot of trouble when she was in his belly but now that Jia Song had cleared his stance, he couldn\'t force his daughter anymore!
