A kind village head

Zi Han was quite surprised. He could tell that Yu Dong was only pretending and saying such words to highlight the despicable attitude of the Zi family. Sure enough, as soon as Yu Dong finished speaking, many villagers looked at Old Master Zi and Old Madam Zi with fear and disdain. 

For the sake of saving their old skin, they sold their mer grandson to a woman who was at least a decade older than him. This was truly shameful. What was more, Zi Han had worked hard and had taken care of the Zi family with his father. The rest of the sons-in-law of Old Master Zi were too lazy to care about their own families, so why would they care about the elderly? 

They also relied on Ye Zexian and his son.

Yet they were now willing to sell Zi Han all because they did not want to take out fifty taels. It horrified and scared the villagers, they all knew that Zi Mu had worked hard to raise this family and yet when he was in need he was thrown out of the Zi house so ruthlessly.
