Chapter 37
Struggle in Ancient Times
When Huang family members came home, Huang Yujin complained, âThat old man dares to show off his sons in front of me. He only has four sons and none of them are promising.â
Huang Hao nodded his head, âYes, that Li Cai wasnât good at all. As for his other sons, none of them are capable. Uncle, donât worry. I will take care of you in the future.â
âYou think I care about you; I still have my own child.â Huang Yujin said disgustedly, âDarling, you have to do your best to outdone that old manâs kids. Only by then, I could show off to old man Li.â
Huang Zilan looked at his father who had fallen into fantasy, he didnât know what to say. What could he do? He isnât a man at all, what kind of career he could have?
âHonestly, this is the first time I know Liao Tingyuâs mouth is poisonous. I donât know how that Li Cai offended him?â Huang Hao asked.
âThat kidâs mouth probably said something unclean.â Huang Yujin replied and thought for a while then looked at his child, âOr⦠maybe my child was too charming?â@@novelbin@@
Huang Zilanâs face was flushed by his fatherâs words, âDonât talk nonsense.â
âNow, that old man Li wouldnât bother me anymore about marriage.â Huang Yuji said relieved, âThis incident brought us a good call. Nephew, you must find the opportunity and ask Liao Tingyu about his condition. Let him find a doctor and you can wait outside.â Uncle Huang continued seriously.
âThere is no need to do this!â Huang Zilan exploded.
âItâs not only about him, we have to take a good look. After all, this also a matter of my grandson in the future.â Huang Yuji said, âI still need a grandson.â
Huang Hao was silent but he understood his uncleâs mood, âOkay, I donât think Liao-xiong is unreasonable person. I will tell him personally.â
.
That day, Huang Hao found Liao Tingyu and explained the matter clearly. It was all done.
.
When Liao Tingyu went home, mother Deng took the meat from Liao Tingyuâs hand, âSon, why do you buy this in the town? You need to save money to marry a wife.â
âI know, mother. When I went back, the butcher told me to buy it cheaper so I just bought it.â Liao Tingyu pushed mother Deng inside the house.
âItâs been so long since we ate meat. I will marinate this and let it sit a bit before cooking them.â Mother Deng thought it was better to let meat marinated for few days.
âOkay, itâs up to mother decision.â Liao Tingyu said with a smile.
Mother Deng felt he was a little strange, âWhy are you so happy today? Is there a good thing?â
Liao Tingyu replied innocently, âNothing at all. I will go back to my room first; you can call me if there is something to do.â
Mother Deng looked at his son who was bouncing around like a rabbit, she felt really weird, âThere must be something wrong with this kid.â
âMaybe he saw someone good looking in the town today.â Mother Deng guessed wildly.
.
Wen Xiuer wasnât at home, so this morning it was mother Deng who cooked. She looked at the salt jar in the kitchen sadly. She was a little mad but didnât dare to curse, so she just whispered, âHow could this little salt be enough. Why didnât mother stop him? Just let him waste our salt like this. My poor salt, my treasure is half gone.â
.
Liao Tingyu was writing his novel in his room. At first, he planned to buy book with Huang Zilan. Well, the shopkeeper once told him that his novel was very popular between the people in the backyard. He didnât know if Huang Zilan had read them.
As a man, his face and pride were the most important. Liao Tingyu couldnât help it, he felt giddy and happy if Huang Zilan really knew his books. He laughed and smiled but woke up suddenly, he looked around in panic and relieved there was no one who saw his stupid appearance. He covered his mouth and smiled.
