Scum Man Cannot Redeem Himself - chapter 74

Ning Qing ran quickly to the place where the carriage could be hired. She couldn’t care about the surprised eyes around her. She, a woman, carrying a bag and lifting her skirt ran wildly. Going home was more important.

She couldn’t sleep on the street. It was so cold that it would be strange if she didn’t freeze to death.

But when she ran to the place where the carriage was hired after great efforts, it was already dark. The bustling parking lot was terribly quiet at the moment. There was no carriage. There was no one.

This was bad. She couldn’t take the carriage to go home, there was no inn. Her belly cried out disobediently.

Hungry and helpless was how Ning Qing felt at this moment.

She walked back dejectedly and didn’t know where she was going. As she was walking, someone kept following her. She turned to the left, and the man went to the left. She stopped, and the man stopped.

Was this going to be difficult? She was in a state of irritability now. She raised her head and glared at the man.

Flower boss!

In response to her angry expression, he said quite innocently, “Is there no carriage?”

Ning Qing immediately calmed down. She frowned and lowered her head in discouragement. She heard a smirk from Yang Junhan above her head.

Seeing her switch easily, Yang Junhan smiled, “Isn’t the inn open anymore?” He searched for several inns the previous day, and found they were either full or closed.

Ning Qing nodded, like a homeless kitten. She looked weak and helpless.

“Go to my house for the night,” Yang Junhan gave his opinion.

She had no place to live. She could not sleep on the street.

Ning Qing raised her head, and smiled, “Then thank you, I will bother you.”

“But …” Yang Junhan paused for a while, and said, “You are a woman. It will not be very convenient. Why don’t you put on the men’s clothing you wore last night,” he said this mainly because of his old lady. If she returned to the house with him, it would definitely cause uproar.

Ning Qing nodded. As long as she had a place to live, not to mention changing to men’s clothing, she was willing to pretend to be a cat or a dog.

…

Yang Junhan took Ning Qing to a secluded place to dress up. He stood not far away, remembering the scene where the old lady called him.

As soon as he entered the hall, the old lady pulled him to the side and let him sit down.

A smile on her face resembled a flower, and she looked at him with a smile.

He coughed and ignored it, still thinking about how to deal with it.

His old mother asked, “Which girl is it? Don’t try to hide from me. You both slept in a room. You must be responsible for the girl. You tell your mother.”

She didn’t even trust the matchmaker anymore. Yang Junhan knew that his mother was hard to deal with.

“That was a merchant. Yesterday we two talked about business and accidentally drank too much. I took her back to the inn and to the bed. That person slept on the bed. I slept leaning to the bed for a night. I still have a backache,” Yang Junhan rubbed his shoulders with some seriousness. If he admitted that he really slept on a bed with a woman, even if nothing happened, his mother would have thought that something must’ve happened, and then would’ve forced him to admit it.

“Don’t try to fool your mother. A lonely man and a girl, stay in the same room, after drinking …” The old lady paused for a while and said seriously, “Son, you can’t be so irresponsible and disappoint the girl of the other family. Don’t you know how important a woman’s reputation is for her? Maybe, the blood of our Yang family is already in the girl’s belly, that is my grandson, me and your father have been looking forward to for many years.”

He looked at his mother in horror. This … the plot developed too fast! Mother, your imagination is too rich. Your son can’t keep up with your rhythm.

Looking at his horrified appearance, the old lady clasped her hands to comfort him.

“Son, don’t worry. Tell me that girl’s address. You just have to wait to get married, and the rest will be left to Mom and Dad. You won’t be wronged. I will fix marriage as soon as possible. My grandson could not wait any longer.”

Looking at his mother’s appearance, he really wanted to tell the old lady loudly to not think about it. The woman was already married. But the old lady couldn’t stand it, so he kept silent.

The old lady tentatively said, “Is there anything wrong? You tell me, is the girl deaf or dumb? It doesn’t matter, I can still accept her.”

“Mother! I said she is a merchant, how could she be deaf or dumb?” He really admired his old lady’s imagination.

When the old lady heard it, she was even more happy, “Isn’t it better? Then there is nothing to hide from me. I can even accept a deaf or mute girl, let alone the rest. Let me say something here. I am very satisfied with the girl also on behalf of your father. You do not need to worry. Your father and mother will not oppose this. We will go ask for her hand. Oh, my grandson, your grandmother would come to you!”

He really couldn’t bear it. This was too unbearable, and he frankly said, “Mother, the woman is already married. I guess she is divorced by her husband’s family. Don’t think about it.”

He thought that this would dispel the old lady’s thoughts, but he didn’t expect that after a long time of pondering, the old lady settled down, “It’s okay, as long as it is a female …”
