The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 124: Climbing High
Chapter 124 -124: Climbing High
Mrs. Tao glared at Su Yunjin, her teeth clenched in anger. If looks could kill, Su Yunjin would have been slain by Mrs. Tao several times over.
That damned Su Yunjin was ruining her plans again.
“What do you mean ‘selling’? What’s this talk about selling? I found Ningxiu a fine match, and a man of Master Huang’s status taking an interest in your sister is a stroke of good fortune for her. You ungrateful creature! I, an old woman, put in the effort to arrange a good marriage for your sister out of kindness, and not only do you not appreciate it, but you also bite back like this?”
As Mrs. Tao wailed, Su Yunjin’s sister and their father quickly came out as well. Sister Su Ningxiu looked coldly at Mrs. Tao, “Granny, I will not marry Master Huang. If he needs a bride so badly, marry off our cousin. Such a fine match is too lofty for me, Su Ningxiu, to attain.”
Su Zhongshi also said, “Mother, Ningxiu is my daughter, and I will not let her marry Master Huang.”
“Have you all turned against me? Now none of you have any respect for an old woman like me? Do you really think I can no longer control you?” Mrs. Tao looked at Su Yunjin and her parents, speaking coldly, “The betrothal gifts from Master Huang have already been accepted on your behalf, so there’s no room for you to back out! Master Huang will come to collect the bride tomorrow, and Su Ningxiu must marry him obediently.”
“Granny, what does it have to do with us if you accepted Master Huang’s silver? We didn’t take the silver; Master Huang can’t claim it from us!” Su Yunjin looked at Mrs. Tao with a mocking smile, her tone tinged with sarcasm, “Whoever accepted Master Huang’s silver should be the one to marry him! Since you took Master Huang’s silver, Granny, why don’t you go marry him yourself? Didn’t you say Master Huang is of a noble status? That my sister is not worthy of him? Since my sister is not worthy, it’s perfect for you to marry him yourself, Granny!”
Did Master Huang want a young girl?
Old and ugly as Mrs. Tao was, how could Master Huang possibly fancy her?

It’s likely that even if Mrs. Tao went to carry his shoes, Master Huang would find her disgraceful.
“You—!” As soon as Su Yunjin finished speaking, Mrs. Tao’s face turned red and white with rage, her expression as spectacular as could be.
With Su Yunjin suggesting that Mrs. Tao marry herself, Mrs. Tao trembled with fury, so much so that she couldn’t even spit out an insult but gasped for breath instead.
Seeing Mrs. Tao so enraged, both Su Yunjin and her sister Su Ningxiu felt a surge of satisfaction. Gu Ya, standing to the side, couldn’t help but twitch his mouth upon hearing his little wife’s words.
Only his little wife would dare to say something like that to Mrs. Tao.
Su Zhongshi was an honest man, and although he too was incensed by Mrs. Tao selling off his daughter, he felt that Su Yunjin’s words were a bit too much. After all, Mrs. Tao was the woman his father married later, and his daughter’s step-grandmother; how could his daughter suggest such a thing about Mrs. Tao marrying Master Huang?
Frowning, Su Zhongshi whispered a reminder to his daughter, “Yunjin, don’t cause trouble!”
