Chapter 399 - 399 399 Ive Never Seen Such a Shameless Person
Chapter 399: Chapter 399: I’ve Never Seen Such a Shameless Person! Chapter 399: Chapter 399: I’ve Never Seen Such a Shameless Person! The Ya Village locals knew him to be an exceedingly honest lad, taken advantage of at home by his parents and siblings. He worked like a mule every day, with every penny he earned divided among his parents and brothers.
And because of some deep scars on his face, incurred from tree branches while harvesting cubilose, every girl would avoid him upon sight.
As for his age…
For that matter, he was no older than Brother Changfeng, born in the same year as him.
“If this match does happen, just imagine what life will be like for Ya Guman, being bullied by his parents and Lin Caihe? Can he even bear it? Brother Molian, why are you silent?”
A man who wasn’t particularly eloquent, sandwiched between greedy parents and Lin Caihe, who gives everyone a hard time, was nothing short of a recipe for a nerve-wracking situation.
“Why should I react? It’s none of my business,” Ya Molian replied.
Lin Caisang: “…”
None of your business? Why are you so informed then?
She gave him an irritated glare.
“Actually, for Ya Guman, getting a wife would be a heaven-sent blessing.” Seeing Lin Caisang’s scowl, Ya Molian hurriedly offered his explanation.
“You probably did not hear, but a while ago, Guman twisted his wrist while out on the mountains. Till now, he can’t lift his arm; it’s practically useless. He can’t earn a living by collecting cubilose anymore.”
“He injured his hand?” Lin Caisang frowned.
“Yes.”
Molian nodded.
“So here’s the thing, his parents reckon he is no longer of any use, and yet they don’t want him to live off them without any contribution. They have planned for him to move out by himself. Guess where he would go?”
“The abandoned small courtyard at the easternmost part of our row of courtyards?” Lin Caisang quizzed.
That was Guman’s old house, which she knew. However… that house is even more dilapidated than the one Liu Baixiao bought before, completely uninhabitable! It needed a complete overhaul!
Molian nodded again in agreement.
“However, just driving out their perfectly good son like that didn’t sit well with Guman’s parents. It wouldn’t look good in front of Clan Chief Ya. So they decided to fix his marriage first, before using the excuse that Guman needs to build a home and take care of his own family, before sending him off to live in the old courtyard.”
“Damn it!”
Mention of that made Lin Caisang uncontrollably swear.
She had never seen such shameless parents! He is their flesh and blood! When he was useful, they made sure to drain every drop of blood from him, and when they finished draining him, they just threw him out!
If Guman doesn’t have any other skills except for collecting cubilose, won’t he starve to death?
“They decided on this marriage because everyone in the village despises Lin Caihe, right? Thus sparing them even from having to provide a dowry?” she asked.
Molian nodded, tacitly acknowledging Lin Caisang’s remark.
“That’s almost the case.”
“I’ve never seen such shameless people!” Lin Caisang cursed.
“Don’t you know of any?”
Molian countered her.
“Isn’t Liu Baixiao one?”
And Lin Caihe, who was still in the Lin Family living a shameless existence, was the one who had reached the pinnacle amongst them.
“Why mention him out of the blue?”
With the mention of Liu Baixiao, she lost all of her good mood.
“So when will they propose?” she asked.
“If your grandmother agrees, it should be very soon… After all, Guman’s parents want to rid themselves of their useless son as soon as possible. Their food stores aren’t plentiful,” Molian stated.
“Pfft.”
Lin Caisang couldn’t help but scoff.
