Chapter 364: Nodded His Head
“He lost all of the eight hundred taels I gave you the other day by gambling. And as for why he broke his legs, I believe you probably know why that happened better than I do. Why do you guys keep bothering with him?” Liu Duo asked them.
She really didn’t know what was inside these two people’s brains.
Liu Duo didn’t wait for the husband and wife to speak and said again, “Lend you ten taels of silver? What are you going to repay it with? And when will you be able to repay it? I won’t even lend them one tael let alone ten! Spending money on these sorts of people is just a waste of money.”
When Ye Liu and the others heard her, they felt that what she said was very true.
Liu Quanfu and Liu Liushi already knew that there wasn’t a high possibility of Liu Duo lending them the money, so they didn’t really look too disappointed.
They got up and left, all the while trembling. Ye Liu looked at their backs and said, “Elders, indecision invariably leads to trouble. Don’t keep prioritizing filial piety over all else. You guys can’t even protect your own son and daughter, but you are still trying to help others. That is just beyond stupid!”
Since they had already moved out and severed their relations, why did they still cared about such trivial matters?
When Liu Quanfu and Liu Liushi heard him, they quicken their steps and walked even faster.
It was only when they couldn’t see their backs did Ye Liu turn to Liu Duo and smiled. “Little Duo, take a guess, do you think they will come back again?”
“But people who are thin-skinned would usually remember after you tell them once!” Liu Duo gave him a few deep and long glances.
It was as if to say, your skin is as thick as the great wall. That’s why you have a bad memory.
He understood the meaning behind her glances. Ye Liu walked in front of her with a smile on his face. “Little Duo, there are many types of thin-skinned people. Sometimes, if a person were too thin-skinned, they wouldn’t be interesting, right?”
He even threw her a flirtatious wink as he spoke.
As if to say, you get what I mean!
Naturally, she did get what he meant. Liu Duo’s face turned red and she pushed him away to increase the distance between the two of them. “Right, my ass. Move away from me. It’s so damn hot!”
This well-experienced bastard really had no shame whatsoever.
Liu Quanfu and Liu Liushi were silently walking side by side on the road.
“Quanfu, what Duo Duo and the others said is very true. Let’s not care about it anymore. We don’t have the ability to care as well. Liu Liushi said softly. Her once pretty face had faded long ago.
Liu Quanfu nodded his head. Similarly, he had also changed drastically. His black hair was mixed with gray hair.
What Ye Liu had said to them kept running through his head. Indecision invariably leads to trouble. Don’t keep prioritizing filial piety over all else. You guys can’t even protect your own son and daughter, but you are still trying to help others. That is just beyond stupid!”
He thought about it and realized they were not just the normal kind of stupid – they were beyond stupid!
“Little Yun, let’s just leave home and go find temp work in town, okay? We will not ask about mother and brother’s issues anymore. How about it?”
He thought it through. He no longer wanted to be led by the nose by them and wanted to live for himself.
She couldn’t wait to leave. For a long time, she had not wanted to see Grandma Liu’s and the other two’s disgusting faces!
Upon hearing her, in a rare display, Liu Quanfu held her hand, not caring what the world would think. “Little Yun, thank you for still being with me and not leaving me. I swear, from today onwards, I will never let you suffer any grievance! If I fail, let me be struck by lightning and die!”
Liu Liushi’s eyes turned red and she shook her head. “Quanfu, you don’t need to swear. I believe you!”
Having a wife like this made Liu Quanfu feel like he didn’t have any regrets in life. He held her hand tightly and walked back home.
At their house, Grandma Liu would look towards the yard door from time to time and constantly muttered, “Why aren’t they back. They have already been there for such a long time! It can’t be that they plan to not come back after receiving the money, right?”
