Trigger warning: contains subjects that might be upsetting for some. Forcing, black mailing. 

"Mother!" Yu Cheng exclaimed he did not expect that his mother who gave him whatever he wanted would refuse. He walked forward and pressed his hands on the table behind which Yu Linyun was working. 

He said, "Mother, if I wait for a month someone else will win over that woman whom I am pursuing. How can we miss someone so rich and powerful, if I marry her I will become an official." 

"But I have no money," stated Yu Linyun without even looking up from the document that she was reading. She wasn't wrong entirely, renting a decent courtyard with well would cost her at least a tael at the moment. 

Buying a mer would also cost her twenty to fifty taels, after taking out so much money she also had to take care of the household affairs of the old Yu family house.
