Chapter 544: Chapter 544: Just in Time to Witness
Grandma Yan was left even more embarrassed, and indeed, guilty as he spoke.
"When has Jin Hua ever harmed you? Her only fault was rejecting you once. Don’t you think you should learn to be a little more magnanimous?"
Upon hearing her words, Zeng Yulang could only sneer.
"Am I not magnanimous enough, Old Madam Yan?"
He no longer addressed her as Grandma Yan. The entire Yan family were like rabid dogs; ready to attack anyone they encountered.
"How was my face disfigured, wouldn’t Yan Jin Hua know about it? I was sleeping soundly in my own room, how did I end up in the distant city moat? Am I capable of flying? How did I get expelled from the academy this time? Don’t tell me no one from the Yan family knows what transpired?"
"This..."
Faced with Zeng Yulang’s barrage of questions, Grandma Yan took a step back.
They were aware of everything, but when they took those actions, Zeng Father and Son were not yet associated with Lin Caisang. How could they have predicted that Zeng Yulang, the poor scholar, could turn his life around?
And because they were all aware, they were planning to marry off Yan Jin Hua to Zeng Yulang. Regardless of whether Zeng Yulang chose to scold or beat her, Yan Jin Hua had to bear it all. Under no circumstances could they allow their actions to affect the Yan family.
They had made up their mind. Even if Yan Jin Hua were to bet her life with the Zeng family, they wouldn’t utter a word.
As long as Zeng Yulang vented his anger and didn’t involve Lin Caisang to deal with the Yan’s, they were willing to negotiate anything.
"All of you from the Yan family, get lost! Don’t ever appear before me again!" Zeng Yulang yelled, pointing outside the yard towards Grandma Yan.
"Yulang, won’t you reconsider? Jin Hua is a decent girl. If she becomes your wife in the future, she would dutifully take care of the household, respect her father-in-law, and ensure everything is well in order."
Grandma Yan was not willing to leave, and continued trying to persuade Zeng Yulang.
"Besides, Miss Lin is a person of compassion who holds the duty to save lives. If she knew how heartless and unrighteous you are towards Jin Hua, would she allow you to serve her? You also wouldn’t want her to know that you are a narrow-minded person, would you?"
Unable to persuade Zeng Yulang, she had no choice but to invoke Lin Caisang’s name. Regardless, she was determined to marry Jin Hua to Zeng Yulang.
Hearing her words, everyone outside the courtyard couldn’t help but gasp. They thought to themselves that this wicked old woman was truly malicious. She was clearly the one begging Zeng Yulang to accept her granddaughter, yet she acted as if Zeng Yulang was the one benefitting.
It was really unbelievable.
"Well, I really had no idea that my name would come in so handy. So anyone can use my name to their advantage."
Lin Caisang initially wanted to stay outside and listen a little longer, but she never expected that Grandma Yan would go to such an extent, using her name to pressure Zeng Yulang into submission.
Upon hearing her voice, Grandma Yan was startled. When she came to her senses, she quickly turned around to look towards the courtyard gate.
At this point, Lin Caisang had donned the mask previously given by Ya Molian, adding an air of mystery while exuding pressure, causing Grandma Yan involuntarily to step back.
"Is...Is this Miss Lin?"
After quite a while, Grandma Yan finally took a deep breath, put on a smile, and approached Lin Caisang.
"Your arrival is timely. I was just discussing the matrimonial matters of our families with Old Man Zeng. It would be nice if you can bear witness. These two kids..."
