Chapter 715: Chapter 715: Why Are You So Unpromising?

He was originally just a student who could’ve read more books, perhaps even attempted the scholar examination. Even though he knew he would never match up to Lin Changfeng of the Lin Family, he was at least far better than the rest of the people in the village.

Even if it was not possible for him to achieve fame and success, he could still have made a decent living as a teacher in the village.

But now, his well-planned future was ruined by his own grandfather and sister. Now he couldn’t even read or speak freely.

"Yu Lan, get up. Grandfather has something to ask you."

Clan Chief Ya didn’t think he had done anything wrong to his grandson and spoke to him directly.

In his eyes, his son failing to become a scholar was just a good-for-nothing eating away his resources at home. Now, he wanted his grandson to do something useful, and he expected him to get it done.

"Grandfather, whatever it is, just tell me. I’m busy here. It’s almost noon, and I need to select and prepare the vegetables, otherwise, young Master Yun Mo and Miss Yun Xiang will be mad again."

Yu Lan replied to his grandfather coldly.

"Who can’t pick vegetables? Eldest son, get over here now and pick!" Clan Chief Ya sternly shouted to his son.

Upon hearing his father’s call, Father Ya quickly responded and came over, pushing Yu Lan out and taking his place by Clan Chief Ya’s side.

Yu Lan took a deep breath, reluctantly standing beside his grandfather.

"Grandfather, what is it?"

He asked.

"I’m asking you, how are things going with that girl Yun Xiang? Did you listen to what the old man told you before? It’s almost a month now, why isn’t that girl pregnant yet?"

Clan Chief Ya bluntly questioned his grandson.

At these words, Yu Lan looked up at his grandfather and chuckled lightly.

"Grandfather, as you said, it’s less than a month, what could possibly happen?"

In his heart, he sneered even more. It would be strange indeed if Yun Xiang was pregnant--they never had any intimate contact. If he dared touch her, he was certain that he’d get beaten up badly.

As far as he knew, up until today, Yun Xiang was still a virgin. How could she possibly be pregnant in this situation?

"What’s wrong with you, can’t you be a bit more ambitious?" Clan Chief Ya, upon hearing his answer, wore an anxious look on his face. He wished he could slap his grandson awake there and then.

"Didn’t grandfather tell you earlier? Only if you make that girl Yun Xiang pregnant with a child of the Ya Family, will she obey you. And that way, whatever we want to do, Yun Xiang will not dare to disobey you."

"With you still unable to get Yun Xiang pregnant, how long does grandfather have to wait to gain his freedom? I’m still waiting to deal with Ya Molian and Lin Caisang, those two worthless wretches."

"Grandfather, you..."

Upon hearing his grandfather’s words, Yu Lan was taken aback, nearly scared to death by them.

This, surely his grandfather is being a bit too fanciful? Thinking that just because Yun Xiang was betraying Ya Molian, he could bring her down?

Moreover, these past few days, though he hadn’t developed any feelings for Yun Xiang, he somewhat understood her character--she was extremely loyal to Ya Molian, how could she possibly betray her for anyone else?

"Ha, ha ha."

He took a deep sigh, and then chuckled lightly.

"Grandfather, if you want to do something, just go and do it yourself. But please, I beg you, don’t involve my parents and me again. I’m still young, there are many things I want to do. We don’t wish to die with you and Ju Xiang."
