Chapter 354 Still alive?

Chapter 354 Still alive?　　Sorry for late update, today I was supposed to post the chapter of Shen Li and Ye Liu's funeral but I had to scrape them and I am trying to rebuild the plot as well.

The news that Shen Li and Ye Liu tried to kill themselves travelled through the village within an instant after all there were only a few interesting things that happened in the village, those who heard the news were first shocked and then they started to discuss the reasons behind their actions as to why the two of them tried to kill themselves. 

Grandma Yu who was working in the fields heard this news and was shocked at first, she thought that maybe she was hearing it wrong and it was hearing that had gone wrong, so she asked around and the villagers all gave her the same answer—- Shen Li and Ye Liu really tried to kill themselves. She was already old and yet she has been taxing herself by working in the fields, after the confirmation Grandma Yu couldn't stay stable on her feet and stumbled backwards if not for a few good villagers, who helped her up, she would have broken her back again. 

" Grandma Yu calm down, you should go back home and take a rest, even if you rush to the Yu house like this, you will become more of a burden than help," said one of the villagers who helped Grandma Yu help and then supported her by holding her up. 

Grandma Yu couldn't say anything she only nodded and allowed the villagers to take her back home. Old man Yu who was watering the vegetable patch in the garden saw his wife being supported by others and he hurriedly rushed to the outside as she looked at his wife carefully before asking, " What's wrong? Where did you hurt yourself?"

" She is fine, Old master Yu," one of the villagers assured Old man Yu nicely. "It's just that Grandma Yu heard that Yu Dong's husbands tried to kill themselves and that's why Grandma Yu was shocked, there is nothing serious."

After listening to the reason why his wife was in such a condition, not only did Old man Yu wasn't concerned about her but he even pulled a long face making the village women feel awkward. 

He glared at his wife who looked like she was going to pass out soon and flung his sleeves as he pointed to the house and sullenly said, " Please follow me, I will show you where the bedroom is," then he didn't even glance at his wife and walked inside without so much as sparing another word to anyone. 

The village women all exchanged a glance with each other before taking Grandma Yu inside the house and helping her to lie down on the bed before they all took their leave. They knew that the Old man Yu was a very petty mer, he wouldn't even ask them to sit down much less serve them anything to drink or eat, it was better not to have any hope at all, thus, they all rushed out without even saying goodbyes knowing that staying with an angry Old Man Yu would only bring them shame and humiliation.

As soon as the women left, Old man Yu turned to his wife and gave her a fake smile as he clenched his fingers so tightly that his nails dug in his palm and drew blood. " Soooo, worrying about your granddaughter wasn't enough now you are going to worry about her husbands too, is that it? You got sick because you couldn't bear the news of them trying to off themselves?"

Grandma Yu was already having a hard time breathing, she was old and she hardly ever had any strength left in her body to fight with her husband, she raised her shaking hand and pointed at Old man Yu before rasping, " If you can..can't say anything g..good shut up!"

" Yeah shut me up, shut f*cking me up!" snapped Old man Yu as he picked up the water jar on the cabinet next to him and then threw it on the ground as he yelled. " You always shut me up, you are worried about them but have you thought about your grandson, who is having a hard time in the academy because you gave away five taels to your precious granddaughter, you don't right? You don't care about him at all. But those bastards tried to off themselves and you feel sick?"

" SHUT UP!" shouted Grandma Yu as she somehow got to her feet and slipped off the bed, she was worried that if she didn't leave the house, she will lose her mind and do something regrettable. " I have watched those two grow up and in your eyes dying and having trouble in the academy is the same thing? If your precious grandson is having such a hard time, ask him to come back and then you can pamper him as much as you want! If he wants to make it big, it goes without saying that he has to suffer through a lot of things, what can I do in it?" 

As she strode out of the room, Old man Yu shouted after her back, " Yeah I will dote on him, since you can't care about him then I will care for him! I will tell him that even if your grandmother doesn't care about you, I do!"

"Then go and earn the money to pay for his expenses, before speaking those bold words."

Old man Yu's face turned grim as he spat on the floor. Money, money, money —— just because she could earn money, she looks down at him! So what if he can't earn money, his daughter is earning enough for his sake!

"Father-in-law, what's wrong?" Qiu Bai who was listening to his in-laws fighting walked out of his room with a docile expression as he hugged the arm of Old Man Yu and sighed, " You don't need to get this angry father-in-law, or you will get sick."

" Tell that to your mother-in-law!" shouted Old man Yu angrily. " Those two bastards hanged themselves on the old tree why does it matter to her? But look at her looking all shaken up and shit!"

Qiu Bai's lips twitched but he suppressed his smile and somewhat curiously asked, " Are the two bastards dead?"

"They have long wretched lives, they are still alive."

The smile on Qiu Bai's face stiffened as a strange glint flashed in his eyes—— still alive?
