Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 90 - Another Plunge?



After what happened at the Old Yu household, Yu Dong's reputation took another mysterious plunge. Though she was the victim in the situation, everyone thought that she went a bit overboard in dealing with the situation as no matter what kind of person Qiu Bai and Old Zhang were they were still her elders and that she should have taken it easy especially after hitting Qiu Bai on the back with a burning stick.

In the morning after Yu Dong took a bath and cleaned herself, the first thing she saw after Ye Liu's delicately flushed face was Mu Xuan who handed her the ten taels with an ugly expression all the while passing subtle innuendos that Yu Doing was unfilial and completely maniac for hurting her family's elder and her villagers.

To which Yu Dong simply replied that neither the villagers nor the old Yu family deserved her kindness if they wouldn't let her live in peace. After that Yu Dong shut the door with a thud before Mu Xuan could say anything anymore.

" The villagers tried to burn our fields? " Shen Li who had just woken up and walked out of his room only to listen to this shocking news couldn't help but ask as his eyes widened in surprise. Why did no one tell him anything last night?

" Don't worry, I solved it last night" answered Yu Dong though she didn't understand how to do a relationship but after talking with Ye Liu last night she understood something, she realised that these mers were too shy to say their feelings out loud. And would hardly let her know what was wrong with them unless they were pushed in a corner, so she patiently explained everything that happened last night to Shen Li " I didn't want to worry you and Mi last night so I didn't tell you anything, who would have thought that the village head would come knocking at our door at such an early hour? No consideration at all and yet she calls me insensitive" tsked Yu Dong, for the first time she tasted the sweetness of having a lover last night, and she wanted to enjoy a bit more of that softness but then Mu Xuan came knocking and Yu Dong had to push herself into the bath house to clean herself.

Shen Li bit his lips as his gaze turned disappointed " I don't understand why Uncle in law would do something like that, aren't we doing really good now? We won't ever trouble him any more, so why can't he let go of us? Shouldn't we all be living our lives separately ?"

When Shen Li thought about what could have happened last night, he nearly broke out in cold sweat. Luckily, Yu Dong went to check on the fields or else, they would have lost everything! A farmers heart was his fields, to harm his fields was equivalent to stabbing in the heart! Just how much hatred Qiu Bai had towards them? And if he did hate them, then what was the reason?

"Some people just can't see others doing well compared to them," said Yu Dong as she took out twelve to fourteen eggs from her space and broke them in a bowl. Today she wanted to make something simple and savoury traditional pancakes with shrimps added to them. Last time when they went to the river, Ye Liu caught some shrimps in his net as well, though they weren't much to eat alone but they were just right to add in the pancakes " Uncle in law is a petty person, he thinks he alone deserves all the comfort and all the wealth and fame belongs to Yu Cheng, you tell him otherwise and he would fight with you till the end of the world"

Though Yu Dong too thought that Qiu Bai and his obsession with not letting the second branch live in peace had something more to do with his own personal vendetta that no one knew about, she couldn't say it without any concrete evidence. The reason was simple, Qiu Bai was too smart even though he scolded and chided Yu Doing every now and then he never let anyone know why he hates the second branch of the Yu family.

Shen Li shook his head with a heavy sigh " this is just too much, if this goes on how will we live in the village? Even the village head seems inclined towards the Yu family what are we going to do if they keep going against us?"

Yu Dong paused chopping the garlic chives and thought about what she did last night, with last night threat, they would be safe for quite a while as for later on " we won't be living here for long, don't worry. As for village head and the villagers just ignore them, they are nothing but a bunch of narrow-minded people who thinks they know better just because they are more experienced and nothing more"

Though Yu Dong said so much, Shen Li only heard the ' we won't be living here for long ' and was so shocked that he couldn't even speak, it was only, later on, did he opened his mouth and could say something " what do you mean we won't be living here for long? What about our fields and this house?"

" we will lend it to workers, something like plantations" when she saw that Shen Li didn't understand the term plantation, she smiled and explained what plantations meant.

" you mean to say we will lend our lands to other workers and ask them to sow seeds for us and in return, we will pay them for their work?" though Shen Li was confused he still understood the gist of the situation, the only reason he was so against leaving the village was their house and fields were here .

" something like that yes," answered Yu Dong, as she started making the pancakes " I don't think I want to stay in this village and let my children grow up among such villagers"

Though Yu Dong was talking about something serious, Shen Li couldn't hear anything anymore, 'children she said children not child! Then doesn't it mean that ?'

On a rather cold morning, nearly Shen Li fainted because of his excitement.
