What else could we have done? And aren't you living a good life now? What's wrong with giving a mouthful to your grandmother?"

So, in his eyes her life wasn't even worth Yu Cheng's academy fees, so be it.
As soon as the villagers saw Grandma Yu, they couldn't help but gasp in surprise. They could tell that Grandma Yu was wearing Yu Dong's clothes and the once hail and hearty Grandma Yu who was the most wanted woman of the village now looked like a child who was wearing the clothes of an adult. Her back was slouching and her entire complexion was paler than a corpse, they only saw her a few days ago … and she was still fine, just what the hell Old Man Yu did to her to this emancipated?
Her entire appearance was haggard and even her eyes seemed to have sunken.

Aren't I doing this for our family, if Cheng Cheng becomes an official then we might be able to live a comfortable life, don't you think so ?"
" Old man Tang," Grandma Yu closed her eyes and breathed in a ragged breath as she opened her sunken eyes and then looked at her husband with a mocking smile. " I am afraid that if I was to leave my life in your hands till Cheng Cheng becomes an official, I might be killed off in your hands. I would rather live a peaceful life and have a mouthful of food properly before I die, being by your side, I am afraid that something like this simple will be impossible."
