NovelEnglishChapter 724: Insatiable greed
Ning Yu however did not show any emotion on his face because he knew that the only way he could make sure that Shen Li's life remained unaffected was to make his wife think that the latter was simply useless. If not then he was worried that the woman would go ahead and find trouble with their son every now and then resulting in Shen Li getting divorced by his wife.
The same was happening with their second son, if not for the fact that he was avoiding them and was refusing to help them no matter how much his mother screamed at him for being useless and completely unfilial and did not know what was good for him. Ning Yu was sure that even his second son would have been divorced by his wife and sent to his maternal house, it was only because he was staying in the house of his wife without seeing his maternal family and not giving them any sort of help was his wife no longer threatening him with a divorce.

In fact, he was glad that his second son was acting like this and was finally standing against his mother who was used to getting her way by acting like she owned her sons even after selling them at prices that were too cheap! His second son was a kind boy and he sent help to his mother because he did not want his younger brothers to be sold away by his mother but who would have thought that the greed of his wife was simply insatiable?
The more money she got in her hands the more she wanted to drink alcohol and the more she wanted to spend it on useless things like this or that which was why all the money that the second son sent to their family was sent to the bar and the tavern without being able to feed the family and the money that was supposed to be used to save and raise their sons was all eaten up by Shen Hanxing and her mother.
Sometimes Ning Yu wanted to murder these two women thinking that he will be able to live a better life if these two died but he did not want to become a murderer and be sent to jail when his son was still young and needed him. Shi Xi alone would not be able to raise four kids on his own. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Fɪre
The second son finally stopped sending money to their family as he found out that his mother was selling his brothers even after getting the money which was why his wife instead of reflecting on herself, she went to the house of the second son and without considering the impact that it will have on the relationship between their daughter in law and their son, she created a mess in front of others.
Ning Yu still could not forget the way his second son begged his wife to stop creating trouble for him now that she has sold him away but his wife was heartless through and through, she simply scratched the gap between her teeth and then said to her second son that as long as he sent money she will leave him alone most probably it was then when their second son started to pull himself away from his family and never visited them again.
Ning Yu was slightly worried about his son and came to see him in secret and that was when he found out that because of his wife his son was on the verge of getting divorced! Only God knew how Ning Yu felt that day, he knew his son's anger better than everyone else because he too was sold away to his wife who was good for nothing by his alcoholic mother who was willing to send him away for nothing but a jar of wine.

" How many times do I have to say this, sheesh!" Old Madam Shen screamed at her husband who was asking the same question again and again causing the latter to be so angry that she almost snapped his neck. " I said that he was not with them, which means that he was not with them, what part of Shen Li was not with those two slutty concubines, did you not understand? Are you a fool? Do I need to hammer something so small in that thick head of yours? Because if so then you better get ready for a knocking!"
Old Madam Shen was annoyed when she thought about how she almost got a wonderful bed to sleep in but was refused because of the fact that her useless son stayed at home and allowed the two concubines to go out.
When Ning Yu heard that it was really as he heard, he sighed in relief but then smiled mockingly. He knew that the only reason his son stayed at home and did not come to the town was because of the fact that he did not want to see them. He lives so close to the town, surely he knows that they were staying in the town as refugees but he did not want to see them which was why he refused to come with those two.
But this was good as well, now he will be able to use this matter to his own advantage with that he wiped every trace of sadness on his face and then scoffed like he was annoyed, " Of course, he was not with them, with him being so useless and ugly. Surely he might not be doted on by his wife which is why he was not with those two concubines. The two might be doted on which was why they were enjoying a night out with a bodyguard and our son as useless as he is, is good enough that he has not been divorced yet."
