古代闺秀被强高H

Chapter 771: A drunken idiot

" Take her away and do not let me see her ever again," the seller of the alcohol shop wanted to say something more nasty but upon seeing the battered and bruised mer who was clearly beaten up by his drunken wife, she did not dare to say anything anymore. She did not want to make a scene in front of her shop either which was why she rolled her eyes and then shooed Ning Yu away with a glare, " I am being really nice on account of the fact that you have nowhere to go but you better restrain your wife properly! If I was to take action, then I am afraid that you will not be able to stay in this town for long!"          

But of course, if that woman came to disrupt her business again then she will not be kind towards either of the members of this family! No matter who it was, with that she flared her nostrils up and then added, " The amount of alcohol that your wife has borrowed from my shop counts up to ten taels, it\'s enough to buy a slave. I will be nice and sell it to your family at the market price by which I sold my alcohol before the flood and ask you all to send me five taels. If she does not bring me money in three days then I will send my worker and have her bring one of your sturdy children!"      

Ning Yu and Shi Xi turned pale when they heard this, they tried to stop their wife but the latter said that she had it under control who would have thought that instead of working in the pub, she actually borrowed the alcohol from the seller and then drank it all! At this moment they did not even have eight hundred copper coins much less five taels to repay the alcohol seller!     

But if they did not repay the money that they owed this woman then their children will be snatched from them, when Mother Shen heard this, she frowned and then pushed Shi Xi who was holding her back causing the latter to fall on the ground with a loud thump.      

" Who do you think you are scaring huh? My daughter-in-law has tons of money, she can buy you and your shop with a snap of her fingers, ten taels, if I go and ask, she will even take a hundred taels out what are you talking about?" Mother Shen was drunk beyond her reasoning, she had completely forgotten that Shen Li had not recognised her or his family back and unless she got the recognition from her son, there was no way she will ever succeed in getting a copper coin from Yu Dong.      

At this moment, she was simply drunk on the wealth that she did not have.      

The alcohol seller was originally going to let go of the five taels and was not going to fuss anymore but when she saw that Mother Shen was acting all mighty and high in front of her, she was so angry that she laughed. With her hands on her waist, she scoffed and then said loudly, " Do you all hear this? This refugee is saying that she can take a hundred taels out!"     

The words said by the alcohol seller caused the crowd to laugh especially hard when they saw the patched and frayed clothes that Ning Yu and the others were wearing, Ning Yu\'s cheeks flushed in shame while Shi Xi tried to stop his wife,     

" What are you doing? We don\'t even have a tael in hand, how can you say something like this? You will put our kids in danger, we have no such daughter-in-law—— AHH!" Shi Xi cried when he was slapped on the face by his wife, he covered his cheek and looked at his wife in shock, but the latter did not take his words to heart at all, instead, she sneered and coldly spat at Shi Xi\'s face before snapping at him, " Who are you trying to drag down huh? Yu Dong…Yu Dong is my daughter-in-law! You want to make me a liar?"      

The alcohol seller had of course heard about Yu Dong, she even admired her a little which was why she did not believe a single word that was coming out of the mouth of this woman, instead, she thought that this crazy woman had found out about Yu Dong and was just using her name as she wished, after all, if they were really Yu Dong\'s in-laws would that woman who was so kind that she would try to uplift the life of orphaned and widowed mers by giving them work in her pub not bring them to her house?      

As the alcohol seller thought of this, she wiped the last trace of mercy from her heart and decided that she was going to teach this woman a good lesson that she will not forget. In fact, instead of following this crazy drunk those kids will have a better life if they followed her!      

" I see, since Yu Dong is your daughter-in-law, then I think that there is no need for me to waive your debt, just bring me the ten taels in the next three days then! Or else I will come to snatch your kids and this time I will take two of them!"
