Chapter 533: Finally divorced
" Yu Tong, what are you doing?" This time Qiu Bai couldn\'t stay calm, no matter what Yu Tong and Yu Cheng were both his kids, he might have had some disagreements with his daughter but he carried her in his womb for more than nine months, how can he let her leave the family like this?When he heard that Yu Tong wanted to leave the family with her grandmother he was so stunned that he almost passed out, what was this foolish daughter of his saying? She wanted to leave the family, has she lost her head?
" I am doing what I should have done ages ago," said Yu Tong feeling both angry and upset, she has been going along with her grandfather and father\'s antics for a while but this was seriously too much! Because her grandmother couldn\'t work anymore, they were going to abandon her like this? Where was their humanity?
She looked at her daddy\'s red and blue face but this time she didn\'t stop herself from speaking, she raised her voice as she spoke, " Granddaddy has been keeping my wages for so many months and I haven\'t said anything, I didn\'t even say anything when no one looked for a husband for me. I am already this old but I don\'t even have a betrothed, you all just care about Yu Cheng, you take my wages away and give them to him, I never say anything because he is my brother and I should give to him but this time, you all are ganging up on grandmother like this, I can\'t withstand it…. I will leave with her, that way she will be able to get half of the fields right? Like Yu Cheng, I am the heir of the family as well, so I should have a decent share."
Yu Tong\'s words caused another uproar among the villagers, it was one thing that Old man Tang was keeping the money of his wife and daughter for his grandson but what was with this? Since when did a daughter have to give her wages away like this?
Old man Tang has shamed once again but he couldn\'t say anything to Yu Tong, that girl who was bent on going against him, in the end, he turned around and looked at Qiu Bai and raised his hand to smack the mer right on the cheek. " Is this what you have taught her? Look at her, she is rebelling against me, her granddaddy! Couldn\'t you do a good job while raising your daughter, you only had one job and you couldn\'t even do it what a useless mer!"
Qiu Bai bit his lips, he was infuriated with what Old man Tang said but there was nothing he could say, after all, no matter what he says he would be the one who was at fault, he covered his cheek and looked at Yu Tong before shouting at her, " Are you happy now? Is this what you wanted, you unfilial daughter!"
Yu Tong wanted to say something but she was pulled back by Yu Dong who shook her head, they were here to get rid of the ties that they had with the old Yu family there was no need for them to fight with them, she knew that the Yu family was simply trying to provoke them again and again, in case Yu Tong was to say anything wrong then they will surely turn the entire situation around.
At Yu Dong\'s piercing glance, Yu Tong calmed down and simply said, " I just want to support my grandmother in her old age, Grandmother is already this old and has no one to take care of her, if I leave her alone then what will happen to her? At least with me around she won\'t have to worry about her meals and health."
" Tong Tong, you…. !" Qiu Bai was so angry that he wanted to go ahead and smack Yu Tong in her face, what nonsense was she spouting one after another? Does she have to be filial to her grandmother? Then who will be filial to him? He still didn\'t know whether his son will marry a woman or a mer, if her son was to marry a woman, they will surely leave the house to settle somewhere away from their families, but with Yu Tong, he was certain that he will be able to get a son in law, whom he can order around if she was to leave then what will happen to him?
And what was more, he was sure that his father-in-law would never let this matter rest no matter what!
" Tong Tong…" seeing that his father-in-law\'s expression was getting bad to worse, Qiu Bai calmed himself down and then looked at Yu Tong with a forced smile. " I know that you are angry, but why don\'t you come here? We can talk——"
" There is no need to talk," said Grandma Yu as she clasped Yu Tong\'s arm and pulled her behind her. " I agree to your terms if you want the house and the money I will let you have it but I will be taking Tong Tong with me, if you don\'t agree then I will bring the matter of forcibly taking hold of our house in front of the magistrate."
Grandma Yu remembered just how troubled Yu Tong was by the Yu family, her husband has been taking her wages away and because she has been saving a bit of her wage to marry a decent mer, Old man Tang was so furious that he wouldn\'t let Yu Tong have a good meal, he kept pulling those psychological tortures on Yu Tong until she started saving less and less and gave all her wages to him, only then he was happy.
Grandma Yu knew that she has already let a granddaughter down, and she could not the same for Yu Tong, so she turned to the village head and said, " I am willing to give up my rights to that house and the money but I want Yu Tong to leave with me and them to be removed from the family genealogy, other than that I will be taking nothing."
