Chapter 946: Digging up past feuds ——2
Old Master Tong shivered when he heard Old Madam Yu\'s roar, he knew that he had done a lot of things wrong but he never expected the deeds of his past to come back and bite him on the bottom. He raised his head and looked at the hateful expression of Old Madam Yu and knew that she was not going to forgive him and bringing the matters of their sons up would only make her furious which was why he raised his hands and clasped them together in a pleading manner.Past feelings? Old Madam Yu was so angry that she was amused. Were there any feelings involved between them from the start? She married Tong Li because her second husband fell sick after falling in the pond and couldn\'t get up anymore. As she worked outside, she did not have the time to take care of the children\'s meals, her kids were still growing and couldn\'t go without food as she knew that the reason why her eldest daughter passed away was because she did not have enough to eat and suffered from malnutrition.
She did not wish the same to happen with her second daughter which was why she agreed to marry Tong Li when her aunt brought him along with her.
In the beginning, Old Master Tong did treat her sons and daughter well. But then her second husband passed away and all the financial power of the house came into Old Master Tong\'s hands, to make things worse he fell pregnant and gave birth to her third daughter. Once Yu Zhang { please tell her name if you remember} was born, Old Master Tong suddenly went a one hundred eighty change and became petty, greedy and cruel.
Her sons were asked to work day to night and her daughter was sent to the mountains to hunt for animals as Old Master Tong needed nutrition to recover his health after giving birth to Yu Zhang. Old Madam Yu tried to make him stop but he made a fuss saying that if she hated him so much then he will take his daughter and leave the house.
His fussing and screaming scared the children which was why Old Madam Yu did not fight with him but instead asked her daughter to stay at home and that she will hunt the animals. But she was a middle-aged woman who knew nothing about hunting, she ended up getting her back hurt ——from then on it was hell.
Old Master Tong screamed at her for being a useless woman who couldn\'t even feed him meat and in the end, her second daughter, Yu Hai went to the mountains saying that she liked hunting.
Yu Hai did so much for Old Master Tong and the family even though she did not have much money she still handed her three mer brothers enough sum to make sure that they will not be looked down on by their families when Old Master Tong did not give them enough dowry.
A good family with sensible children were all ruined by Old Master Tong and yet he dared to say that he and she shared old feelings?
Her feelings for him died the day when he brought back a match of a woman who lost her right arm for her eldest son!
" You think that there are any old feelings left between us? Even if there were any, they have been exhausted by your selfishness and cruelty!" Old Madam Yu narrowed her eyes as she harshly clenched her hands as if she was afraid that she will beat Old Master Tong up if she was to unclench them. " I don\'t owe you anything, Tong Li. You have ruined my family and my life! For years I listened to your words silently even when you called me a useless woman! But not anymore, you dared to touch my daughter… for the sake of her poor soul, I will send you to yamen no matter what!"
When Old Master Tong saw that his wife was still insisting on sending him to Yamen he suddenly exploded, he glared at her hating her for not acting submissive again as she did in the past after she hurt her back. The fears in his heart turned to anger and he shrilly yelled," Did I do anything wrong? You only cared for Yu Hai! Have you cared about our daughter even a little bit? She wanted to study but you refused but you were willing to send Yu Dong to school why? Yu Hai was allowed to do anything that she wished to do, even the mer husband you chose for her was ten times better than the one you chose for Ah Zhang! You were the one who was biased through and through and never cared about us, father and daughter!"
" If you have loved me, given me the attention that I needed would I have looked for someone else?! It\'s you who refused to touch me for years… I married your sons away but did I not do it for our family? You only knew how to marry and have kids but did not know how to earn money! If you had looked for a better match for them then you would have to sell even our house! Why? Is it my fault or yours that you couldn\'t earn enough?!"
