We deserve an explanation

 Old Madam Murong was really upset. She was the village head of the Murong village and everyone only respected her, when was the last time she was bullied like this? 

Her mer son who was promised to be handed the position of the official husband was getting robbed of the position that belonged to him! And that too by a mer who once sold his body, this was the greatest humiliation! 

"We have to stop this," Old Madam Murong exclaimed with a frown on her face. "If a prostitute marries Yu Tong and that too as the official husband, where would our family put our faces? Everyone in the village will laugh at us!" 

Old Madam Murong had announced to everyone in the village that her son was getting married to Yu Tong, Yu Dong's cousin. Including the fact that Yu Tong earned more than three hundred taels in a month. Everyone in the village was now envious of her and her son who was getting married to Yu Tong who was related to Yu Dong.
