Chapter 521: The Crazy Di Cheng



Although her wish has been granted now, the hatred in her heart seems to have increased over time.

Seeing the present situation, a thought popped into her mind, and she immediately began to voice it aloud.

“What is happening here? The Third Son’s family, you must act with conscience. You were the one who said you’d help Di Cheng with the wedding matters. Now you’re saying this, are you trying to back out?”

Liu Sisi glanced nonchalantly at Ms. Zhao, then turned her calm eyes back on Di Cheng, without adding any further comment.

Di Yelei shook his head: “No! Third Uncle meant tonight. I’m afraid Third Uncle cannot accompany you to prepare the house.”

Di Cheng’s face turned pale, the surprise in his eyes gradually simmered down. He stood up and bowed to Di Yelei.

“Cheng’er understands. Cheng’er thanks Third Uncle and Third Auntie. The time has grown late. I must now take my leave.”

After his statement, Di Cheng bowed to the crowd before turning to leave.

“Third Son, you are an esteemed official now, yet you talk ambiguously like this, beware of retribution in the future!”

Ms. Zhao at the side started shouting again.

“Cheng’er hold on!”

Liu Sisi stopped him and frowned at Di Yelei: “Look at what you’re saying. You’re the official representative of the common people. If outsiders hear you, who knows how they will twist your words around.”

Although her words were aimed at Di Yelei, everyone clearly understood who she was indirectly addressing.

Di Yelei chuckled, his gaze cryptically sweeping over the crowed.

“Cheng’er, do you know who previously owned the house your mother bought for you?”

“Cheng’er doesn’t know. Who lived in that house before?”

Di Cheng knew his Third Uncle wouldn’t speak without reason, “Is there an issue with the house?”

“There’s not just an issue, it’s a big problem”

Liu Sisi continued with her eyes scanning between Elderly Mr Di and Ms. Zhao, “Hearing Di Chen mention the modest house cost ten taels of silver, Sisi couldn’t help but worry. So I asked Old He about this residence. Little did I know, I dug up a lot of secrets.”

“In my view, you are reluctant to arrange for Cheng’er’s wedding, hence you are finding all sorts of excuses to stall.”

Ms. Zhao wasn’t stopping with her instigation, “Third Son’s family, if you really don’t want to do this, just say it. Worst case scenario, I can put aside my pride and let the Second Family arrange this instead.”

She said it that way because she feared Liu Sisi would take up the mantle and handle Cheng’er’s marriage expenses, which would then have to be borne by the Second Family.

On the side, Di Cheng was anxious but he had no time to listen to the nagging of his grandmother yet couldn’t explicitly go against her.

He quickly stepped forward and bowed to Liu Sisi: “Third Auntie, what exactly happened? Please enlighten me.”

“Ah! Your mother she…..”

Liu Sisi sighed, she didn’t have the heart to say it, but she had no choice but to reveal, “The house your mother bought for you…someone died in that house.”

“People dying in a house is normal, isn’t it? Which house has no one died? Even in the Palace, more people die, but it is still occupied!”

As soon as Liu Sisi’s words fell, Ms. Zhao started squabbling.

“What if in this residence, the person who died had smallpox?” Liu Sisi asked helplessly.

“What? Smallpox!”

The color drained from Ms. Zhao’s face as she instinctively recoiled.

“Yes, smallpox. The original owner of the house died from smallpox and since the family line ended, the house has been vacant ever since. Until Second Sister-in-law bought it for 10 taels of silver as Di Cheng’s wedding house.”

As Liu Sisi spoke these words, her gaze was fixed tightly on Di Cheng.

Di Cheng’s face suddenly turned ashen, and he unconsciously took several steps back, somehow managing to reach the wall behind him before collapsing to the ground.

His lips firmly pressed together, he stood there silently with his head down, lost in thought.

Ms. Zhao was still mumbling, “Isn’t it just… smallpox? At worst, just go and find Old Doctor He to prescribe some smallpox preventive medicine. Take it before entering the room and it should be fine…”

Liu Sisi’s eyes widened, the more she saw of Ms. Zhao, the more disgusted she became!

“Mother-in-law! Is this how you speak? Do you want everyone who is attending the wedding, to drink a bowl of medicine before entering? ”

Upon hearing these words, Ms. Zhao was instantly indignant!

“From Third Son’s family, what do you mean by that? My wife, when have I ever said anything like that? I…”

Before Ms. Zhao could finish speaking, Di Cheng had already scrambled to his feet and rushed out of the room and out of the house.

“Di Cheng! Cheng’er!” Everyone called out in alarm.

“Ye Lei, you quickly go after him, bring Cheng’er back.” Liu Sisi said anxiously.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely bring Cheng’er back safely.”

After saying this, Di Yelei hurriedly chased after him.

Liu Sisi, turning her head and narrowing her eyes, could no longer hold back the anger in her heart: “Ms. Zhao, I treat you with respect and therefore call you ‘Mother-in-law’. If you continue to be so muddle-headed, you can go back to Upper Village! My place is small, I can’t afford to accommodate such a big Buddha as you!”

The reason she chose to bring this up today was actually meant to prompt her father to say something.

She and Ye Lei are, after all, Third Uncle and Third Aunt, and as Di Cheng’s parents are still alive, there’s no way they should interfere with major matrimonial matters.

If Ms. Wang dared to buy such a mansion for Di Cheng as a wedding house today, who knows what other tricks she might pull when it comes to the proposal?

Liu Sisi was just preparing for the future, hoping to take this opportunity to make Elderly Mr. Di aware of the situation.

But to her surprise, it turned out Ms. Zhao was making things difficult!

“You!”

Ms. Zhao wanted to speak, but was subdued by Liu Sisi’s icy gaze.

Turning to look back at the silent Di Elderly, Ms. Zhao couldn’t help but call out softly: “Old Man…”

Elderly Mr. Di gave her a cold look, then turned his gaze to Liu Sisi.

“Sisi, whatever you want to do, just go ahead and do it. Your father is on your side.”

Hearing her father’s support, Liu Sisi felt a heavy burden in her heart.

“Yes, Father.”

“Cheng’er, Cheng’er don’t run! Cheng’er!”

Di Yelei chased and called out. Not too far ahead, he saw Di Cheng.

Di Cheng didn’t stop in his tracks, instead shaking off Di Yelei’s hand with force: “Third Uncle, let me go, I want to see it for myself. I want to see the new house that my mother bought for me with my own eyes! Third Uncle! That’s the new house my mother bought for me…”

Di Cheng was exceptionally agitated!

Di Yelei had never seen Di Cheng like this, his hand instinctively loosened, and Di Cheng slipped out and ran off rapidly.

Di Yelei cursed quietly, then chased after him as quickly as he could.
