Chapter 963: I want to separate!

" Whats cooking? It smells good," Yu Dong returned with Old Madam Yu and Yu Tong. The three of them stepped inside the house and looked at the pot of seafood congee on the table before Yu Tong fluttered over to the table and then said, " Uwa, seafood congee? My favourite. Brother-in-law, can I take one bowl?"          

Only then did Yu Tong pick up the ladle and scooped some porridge into her bowl before sitting down and then slurping it down in a hurry as she muttered, " After working so hard, I am really hungry!"      

" What happened?" Seeing Yu Tong gobble the food as if she was the reincarnation of a hungry ghost, Shen Li turned to look at Yu Dong and asked, " Did things go well with the Li family?"      

Yu Le\'s heart squeezed when he heard the mention of the Li family but he did not show it on his face because he was worried that Li Yuya will be upset. He only lost a wife but his daughter lost her mother as well as her family.      

\' Now that we are separated Li Sangyu must be happy right?     

  Yu Le was indeed depressed, even though he and Li Sangyu married each other because of their families, he still respected and loved his wife.      

In the beginning, the two of them were happy, and Li Sangyu treated him very well. Even Yu Le thought that his father who was greedy and selfish did something good.     

  After a few months, Lin Sangyu told him that she wanted to marry her childhood sweetheart, and he agreed. Because his father taught him that women had the right to marry as many husbands as they wanted because they were given the right by the heavens itself, he only hoped that his wife would treat him and his daughter well. Something that Li Sangyu promised to do when she needed his permission to marry Min Yan.      

But then Min Yan arrived and his wife\'s heart changed, women became rotten if they were not tied up on time. Because he was too gentle and ignored the slight disrespect by his wife in the beginning, she got more and more bolder. And then one day when he quarrelled with Min Yan, she raised her hand at him.     

In the beginning, his wife felt guilty when he cried in front of her. She knelt and begged in front of him saying that she was carried away and promised that she will not do it again. Yu Le was gentle ever since he was a child and did not stand up for himself because he knew that he would be scolded by his father.      

Thus, when his wife begged in front of him, he let the incident of her hitting him slide.      

However, soon the same thing happened again and Li Sangyu hit him once more because of her mer concubine. Similarly, she did the same thing, she knelt and begged in front of him when she saw him cry. Because Yu Le had a daughter, he decided to let go of the matter after all, what can a mer without a family and any place to go even do?      

Then, Li Sangyu realised that she could hit Yu Le whenever she was upset and get away with it. It was as if a new blood was introduced in her veins and she started hitting him left and right every time she was upset with something. If she lost in gambling, if she did not get to sleep with Min Yan, if she did not get to eat eggs —— each time he was the one who was beaten up.     

Yu Le wanted to leave but he couldn\'t, sometimes he threatened to leave but Li Sangyu did not take him seriously, she taunted him saying that he will be an unwanted rag if he was to leave her as he was neither an untouched mer and even had a jinx as a baggage. If he did not have a woman next to him then he will be spat on his daughter will become a Bastard.     

For the sake of his daughter Yu Le suffered silently but when he saw Min Yan hurt his daughter he couldn\'t stop himself anymore. He knew that if he did not leave his daughter and he will become an old ghost but when he left the Li house, he couldn\'t help but ponder over his decisions.      

Why did he even suffer so much if he was going to leave anyway? His wife did not change for the better if possible she only became worse and worse…so why did he take all those hits and kicks for?      

But then he glanced at his daughter who was sipping the congee with relish and felt relieved, as long as his daughter was fine he was willing to let go of everything.     

He took a bite of his seafood congee and then turned to look at Yu Dong who nodded, waiting for her to say something but instead was surprised when he watched her take out the things that she brought back with her from the Li family.     

  She placed the ten taels of silver and the head gears which were gifted to Yu Le by her mother when he got married to Li Sangyu along with the chicken and eggs that were chopped up by the Li family because they did not wish to pay the money for the venison and the bear claws.      

  " This is what the Li family owes you, uncle," seeing that Yu Le was so surprised that he stopped in his actions of eating congee, Yu Dong explained, " You went to the Li family with a big ho ha … it\'s only fair that they returned everything when you left. After all, it does not make sense that you left silently after working for the Li family for so long."
