LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 6 - Shameless
Li Fu Lang's curses made many people frown, “Li Fu Lang, save some decency.” The village chief couldn't help but ask his subordinates to untie Li Xiang Yu.
“Ah Yao, let's go,” whispered Li Xiang Yu, her face flushed with embarrassment. This “Lin Yuxing” had once been a tough comrade; despite his blindness, she had developed a fondness for such individuals.
“Lin Yuxing! Anyone who marries you will be in for misfortune. The one who can't bear your child, the wretched offspring, is none other than you!” Lee Su's voice remained strident as he continued to berate, though his son tugged him away.
As the two retreated, the distant echo of Lee Su's voice lingered in the air, leaving a disconcerting feeling in the hearts of onlookers.
Normally, Elder Lin and the rest of their group were straightforward, unsuspecting folks. They had never anticipated such an unusual situation involving childbearing.
A solitary silver coin lay on the ground, and Lin Yuxing found it challenging to retrieve it with his single leg. Lin Yuchen offered assistance, saying, “Ah Yao, please pick up the silver.” He was well aware of the importance of concealing their wealth, especially in front of the watchful eyes of the villagers.
Just as Soong Qinghee reached for the money, Lin Yuxing interrupted, “Mother-in-law, allow me.” He couldn't possibly keep it for himself at this moment and had no choice but to hand it over to his mother-in-law.
Lin Yuxing had never encountered such audacious shamelessness in his entire life, and he was taken aback.
“Master, this silver is meant as a gesture of filial piety for Ah Yao,” the elder son-in-law stated matter-of-factly. In the past, anything of value had to be shared with him.
Even before Eldest Lin could respond, Lin Yuxing retorted with a wry smile, “Grandmother, are you attempting to rob us?” This individual was well aware of their family's predicament, and it could be argued that it was her own doing.
The old son-in-law, with a fierce glare, confronted Lin Yuxing, pondering aloud, “Who stole from me? I was openly sharing with everyone.” He had never held any affection for Lin Yuxing since their early days, and their relationship was far from being close. In truth, he had no interest in siblings who incurred financial losses. He had two brothers, and every time he returned, they lamented their financial woes, solely fixated on taking things from their family.
Lin Yuxing, lacking patience, implored, “Grandmother, kindly return the silver.” Moreover, he felt an ache in one of his legs after standing for an extended period and was eager to avoid any future complications.
The old son-in-law, adopting the appearance of a rascal, retorted, “Don't even entertain the thought!”
Lin Yuxing had anticipated such a response from this individual. He calmly proposed, “If that's the case, then use a portion of the silver to mend the relationship between you and my father. Refrain from harboring any filial expectations.” The entire village was well aware of his father's favoritism towards his youngest son and his disdain for his eldest son's family.
“Boss, do you dare?” “You emerged from my womb, you ungrateful child. Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?” The old son-in-law suddenly collapsed and rolled on the ground.
Eldest Lin wore a troubled expression as he gazed at his own brother Ah Yao. “Ah Yao, this is to help your son Yu receive medical treatment; his legs require healing.” The annulment of this brother had already occurred, and if he were to become disabled again, who would be willing to marry their son Yu?
“Why bother seeking a doctor? One of his legs is already crippled, so don't waste your money,” the old son-in-law remarked, casting a glance at Lin Yuxing.
Lin Yuxing responded to the heartless words with a cold laugh, saying, “Let's not forget what Ah Yao Li once said. He used his silver to make ‘buttless' children, and grandma, are you genuinely using it on yourself? Then, don't place a curse on this grandson.”
With that said, old son-in-law acted as if he had met something dirty and threw the silver out.
