Chapter 912: Never Judge A Book By Its Cover!

Matchmaker Hua stopped there, and took time to examine their faces.

No mood changes were detected, so she began to talk louder, “Could it be that the baby in her belly is a curse? After all, it seems too much of a coincidence. If that’s the case, then that means Ye Ling’s probably in danger. We’d need an auspicious event to overcome an ominous one.”

As she continued to speak, she made it seem as though she only had Ye Ling’s best intentions at heart, when she was actually just beating around the bush in an effort to persuade the men to agree to getting another wife!

As the neighborhood matchmaker, it was natural for her to hear news of Ye Ling falling sick. That was how she could weave exaggerated tales out of it.

“Shut the hell up!”

“Shut the hell up!”

In unison, the two brothers yelled at the matchmaker.

If they could, they would skin her alive with their eyes!

The surrounding villagers jumped in astonishment, but mostly because Ye Liu had frightened them.

Truth be told, he was a chatty and friendly face in the neighborhood. They were not expecting him to react this way when provoked.

Never judge a book by its cover!

They were used to Ye Mo getting riled up, so they were not surprised at all.

“Madam Hua, I think you should know that careless talk leads to trouble.” Ye Liu frowned and spoke to her sternly. “I’ll let it go this time, since you’re our elder after all, but if I hear any of your nonsense again, don’t blame me for any disrespect!”

Ye Mo was not as nice. He grabbed one ripe tomato and tossed it at her face.

The tomato struck its target with great accuracy. Red juices came streaming out of the fruit and all over her face.

“Ah…” Matchmaker Hua shrieked.

“Old hag, I’m not as nice as my brother!” Ye Mo exclaimed, getting his second tomato ready. “You’re not young anymore, for god’s sake, and yet you dare to swindle others by slandering my wife’s unborn baby! Let’s see how I’m going to make you pay! What’s this about curses and omens? Not on my watch!”

Li Wazi had not been able to get a word in, but he was no less furious at the woman.

While he was handing over tomatoes to Ye Mo for his friend to toss, Li Wazi managed to convey his resentment. “When they were poor long ago, when they were short of food and had tons of expenses due to Ling’s medication, where were you and your kind intentions? Now they’re living the good life and you come to offer a favor? You may have bitten the hand that feeds you, but they won’t!”

Ye Liu said some more. “Liu Duo is our one and only wife, and we won’t take anyone else!”

With a firm gaze, he scanned the villagers, crushing the will of anyone else in the crowd who had been considering the impossible!

Ye Mo fiercely agreed. “Anyone else who dares come to play matchmaker or curse my family, I’ll tear out your tongue! I don’t care how old you are, I’ll fight you, and teach you how careless talk leads to trouble!”

Matchmaker Hua was already drenched in tomato juice by the time they finished. She looked absolutely disastrous!

She trembled at their words.

She was long past her prime. She would not stand a chance if she were beaten up by these young fellows. She still wanted to live a few more years!
