Chapter 1141: Don’t come back home if you dare
Old Master Ying's voice was so loud that everyone in the village heard him. It was evening and the villagers were returning from their fields thus when Ying Nan rushed out of the house, they all saw Old Master Ying chasing after Ying Nan.
Seeing this a few people rushed to call Da Qiao while the others rushed to stop Old Master Ying.
" Enough, what are you waving your broom for, Old Master Ying? Day and night you hit poor Nan until he cannot even talk back, we do not say anything as this is your family matter but do you even know how embarrassing it is for you to wave your broom around like that?" One of the women said as she looked at Old Master Ying with distaste.
She really hated the Ying family, not only was the master of the family a lazy good for nothing, her husband was not any better than a shrew.
They were the trash of the village and brought their reputation down by fighting every time and everyone whom they found unsettling!
" Thats right, you are ruining the name of our village! What kind of scenes haven't you caused every day? Why can you not live peacefully without causing a scene?" Another woman chimed in with a frown.
Now the Big River Village was getting better and better, they all had heard about how the villagers were earning more and more money every day. They also heard about how the leader of the village turned a tragedy into something more fulfilling by handing gold taels to the villagers. Now they all were rebuilding their houses!
There were all sorts of benefits too which included mental and physical trauma.
The better the Big River Village became the more upset they became, it was not that they were envious but the comparison was inevitable when they thought about how the Big River Village was getting better and they were only watching this sh*t show, they could not help but become angry.
The Big River Village was not far from their village, just a mountain lay between the two villages. How could they not hear the screams and yells of Old Master Ying? What were they thinking creating a ruckus like this?
" I am creating a scene? This bastard here thinks that he is some sort of prince! I told him to harvest the cabbages that are fully grown but he only did a corner of the field. With this how long will it take to harvest the entire field?" Old Master Ying did not think that he was in the wrong and shouted his complaints as if he had suffered a great grievance.
However, when everyone heard his complaints, they felt like they had heard the biggest joke. They looked at Old Master Ying as one of the villagers laughed and said, " Yo… you want a mer to harvest three mu of land? Are you joking with us, Old Master Ying? If a mer can harvest three mu of lands on his own then what are we?
Even with three of my sisters, we cannot harvest one mu in a day and you want a mer to harvest three mu of lands in just a single day?"
" Thats right why don't you try to harvest three mu of lands first? Teach Ying Nan properly and then we will talk!"
Old Master Ying stiffened as he looked at the crowd. Harvest three mu of lands on his own? He would be dead if he was to harvest three mu of lands at his age!
Fortunately for him, his wife came running after hearing Old Master Ying's screams but she did not scold Old Master Ying when she came to a stop instead she glared at Ying Nan before saying, " Why are you acting up? Can't you see that you are troubling your father, come back home with us."
But instead of agreeing with Old Madam Lai, Ying Nan looked at her and then said, " Is it true that you went to look for Madam Song and asked her to take out a hundred taels?"
The matter between him and Song Yixu was spread all over the village by Old Master Ying. Who said that he was a wretched mer who seduced a woman at a young age and what not, Ying Nan had no qualms in talking about it.
When everyone heard the ins and outs of the matter, they understood almost immediately what happened and why Old Master Ying was beating Ying Nan. Most probably he could not get the hundred taels that he wanted and was now taking his anger out on Ying Nan.

Old Master Ying's face blushed when he saw the naked contempt in the eyes of the people of the village. He flared up at Ying Nan and snapped, " What do you mean by that I asked for a hundred taels? It's not like I am asking or demanding. It was Song Yixu who said that she would help our family at every turn, your sister is getting married what's wrong with handing a small sum as this one?"
When the villagers heard Old Master Ying call a hundred taels a small sum, they were stunned. This mer really dared to say anything didn't he?
Ying Nan took a shuddering breath as he recalled the shadow guard's words, she told him that as long as he was alive and Song Yixu had him in her heart, he could forget about getting married. This pair of leeches! They would never let him off!
His eyes filled with tears and then he glared at Old Master Ying and Old Madam Ying before shouting, " You are really good! Hundred taels? What relationship does she even have for her to hand you a hundred taels? You have to be kidding me!"
Old Master Ying did not know how to answer this question but when he heard Ying Nan shouting at him, his temper flared up and he screamed," You bastard how dare you speak to me like this!" He took a step towards Ying Nan with his broom but the latter ran out of the village and headed up the mountains.
Seeing him run, Old Master Ying was not worried instead he screamed, " If you have the guts then don't come back ever!"
