Guide to raise my cutie husbands
Chapter 638: work for me and that too for freeChapter 638: work for me and that too for free
Yu Dong looked at the villagers who were shouting and nodded. At least they all were smart enough to know what was good for them.
" Then can't we just hand her the rice husk and then ask her to give us the oil?" Old man Tang who was already using all the cogs in his brain couldn't help but say. " I mean if she is willing to help the villagers then she might as well help us thoroughly, she can extract oil for us and we can sell that oil in the town, what do you have to say about this ?"
He paused and then thought over his words before he licked his lips and added, " Even if she can't do the same for everyone, at least she could help those who are closest to her right?"
He carefully thought about everything that the village head said and finally came to a realisation that the one who will be getting the most out of this deal was none other than Yu Dong and her family! Even though he was not sure whether Yu Dong could take oil out of the rice bran, he also knew that Yu Dong was someone whose ideas always were rather grand. If she said that she will be to get oil out of the rice bran there is a chance that she might be able to do so.
If that happened then wouldn't Yu Dong become the richest one in the village, while the rest of them would be left behind to do nothing but lick what Yu Dong threw at them like charity?
He did not want that! If Yu Dong knew how to make oil, then doesn't it mean that his family knew how to make oil? Shouldn't they grab the biggest chunk of this good deal? Why should he only get a few copper coins when he could get gold and silver taels? Old man Tang did not have much knowledge and he did not know about anything that went in the market but back then when his daughter wanted to buy those tools to extract oil and asked him to bully his wife into giving extra money to her, his daughter has told him that extracting oil was a very successful business because those who can extract oil were very few and they controlled the entire heart of the town!
Getting gold taels and silver taels was as common for them as a villager finding wild vegetables at the foot of the mountains!
" You really know how to ask for the biggest bite don't you old man Tang?" Village head Gu sneered as she looked at the sly mer, she has lived in the village for so long, how can she not know what was going on in the head of Old man Tang? Even though he divorced Old madam Yu, now that his ex-wife was on the road to earning more money, he was thinking of a way to get the biggest share of money thinking he deserved that since he was married to Old madam Yu once!
Old man Tang did not think that he was doing anything wrong by asking such a thing, even if Yu Dong's grandmother and he was now divorced, he was once Yu Dong, grandfather and even if he was not Yu Dong's relative, his daughter was also Yu Dong's aunt and was biologically related to her! How can she not help her aunt who was an elder to her?
With such thoughts in his head, he nodded and then started to get even more confident as he said, " Am I wrong? Even if you want to deny it. My daughter is still Yu Dong's elder, even if we are two separate families, it's not like my daughter is no longer her aunt, if she wants Yu Dong to be filial to her by extracting oil for her then she will have to do it, right?"
As he spoke he turned to look at his ex-wife and said, " Yu Cheng needs to get some more taels to help him curry favour with a teacher in his academy, he says that as long as he can win that teacher over he will become a scholar, don't you want to see the only boy in our family to reach greater heights? Can't you ask Yu Dong to do something so small?"
He then cupped his cheek and sighed, " Even if I might have wronged you but that doesn't mean you should not help your own daughter and grandson, I mean you cannot be this ruthless."
" You…." Old madam Yu was stunned and speechless when she saw how Old man Tang was trying to manipulate her, she looked at the mer who was trying to scam her and then clenched her fingers as she said, " I am not going to refuse to help my grandson but that does not mean that I will wrong my granddaughter! I am not you, old man Tang! Doting on one by sucking another child of my family! Don't think that you will be able to get away with what you did when we were married! I will not agree to it!"
Old man Tang's face flushed when he heard old madam Yu call him out in front of everyone. He looked at her and glared hard when he saw that the other villagers were looking at him with contemptuous looks in their eyes.
" Did you hear that? He left old madam Yu to die and still had the cheek to ask for the biggest share without any risk, he truly is shameless."
" Tsk, Tsk, no wonder he was divorced, he is fortunate that he is not my husband or else I would have killed him in my anger."
" How can someone be so shameless?"
" Don't learn from all right Yan Yan?"
" What nonsense are you all sprouting?" Old man Tang shouted as he looked at the villagers who were talking bad about him now that his ex-wife has stripped out his true intentions. He turned to look at his ex-wife and then shouted, " I just asked you to help our grandson, when did I ask you to bully your other grandchild?"
