Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Marry Me

"Grandpa!"

Ya Yulan was infuriated by his words, unsure what to say in response.

"You might be going mad but don’t drag our whole family into this. If you provoke Ya Molian too much, there’s no telling what he might do!"

"And what exactly can he do? This is Ya Village, does he think he owns the place?" scoffed Clan Chief Ya.

Back when they were in the Lin Family home, he might have felt slightly wary, but now that he was back home, was he supposed to fear Ya Molian? Even if Ya Molian had the guts, he would never dare!

Ya Yulan: "..."

Feeling helpless, he didn’t know what else to say, so he stood up.

"Grandpa, you can go ahead and do as you wish. I’m done dealing with this. You can do whatever you want."

Dropping his instructions, he turned and walked away.

"Yulan, Yulan, where are you going? You haven’t given grandpa any advice yet!" Clan Chief Ya called after Ya Yulan’s departing figure. Receiving no response, he huffed heavily.

"What’s the point of having a grandson? He’s not even as considerate as Yu Ju!"

If his grandson would not help him, he would have to devise a counter-measure himself. As an esteemed Clan Chief, could he not even come up with a single idea?

"That’s it! I’ll go find Ya Tu!"

Even if Ya Molian doesn’t take Ya Tu seriously, Ya Tu is his foster father, isn’t he? His words still carry weight, right? If Ya Tu doesn’t agree to Ya Molian and Lin Caisang’s engagement, he would like to see how this betrothal can be settled!

With that said, he stood up and made for the door.

...

At Ya Tu’s house.

After a day of hard work, the old man placed his hoe in a corner and entered the main room of the house. He saw his son, two daughters, and his daughter-in-law seated there and murmuring among themselves.

"What are you talking about?" he asked.

"Dad, sit down."

Ya Jin Lai saw that her dad had come back, hurriedly stood up, and helped him sit down.

"Dad, did you hear about Brother Molian and Lin Caisang?" she asked.

"How could I not know?" Ya Tu replied irritably.

The two most talked about individuals in their village were embroiled in the same issue and had even developed feelings for each other. Their village must be buzzing now, right? Who wouldn’t have heard?

Even if he hadn’t heard it from others, he would have come to know about it from his own family members.

"Dad, Brother Molian promised to marry me first, how can we let that cunning vixen Lin Caisang take advantage of us? You must interfere!" Ya Jin Lai insisted.

Life was quite good at home when Ya Molian was around, with delicious food every day. But ever since Ya Molian left, they have had to rely on what their small fields could yield.

Her brother hardly brought in any money from gathering swallow’s nest. Could they depend on him?

Hunting was even less promising.

"Sister, how can you say that? Brother Molian actually wanted to marry me!" Ya Yinlai, who was seated nearby, took exception to Ya Jin Lai’s words and protested.

Why should such a great guy like Ya Molian be claimed by her sister alone? She too was a woman ready for marriage, why couldn’t she snag him?

"You?"

Ya Jin Lai shot Ya Yinlai a scornful glance.

In fact, looking at the two of them, they bore a striking resemblance as they were twins. Even their voices were similar, making it difficult for a stranger to distinguish who was who.

"Don’t even think about it. Don’t you remember who caused Brother Molian to leave our house? Without you, would Brother Molian have moved out?"
