Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 825: A kid

'It's all right, what is going to come will come there was nothing that I can do about it now,' she could only console herself like this as she asked Village head Gu to hand out her words while being prepared to come with her to the town tomorrow.      ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ (f)ir(e).nᴇt

" I understand, Miss Yu. Do not worry, I will do just as you said," Village head Gu did not even question whether or not Yu Dong was certain that there will be a locust plague and blindly agree to it.     

When her husband saw this he wanted to twist the soft meat on the waist of his wife and stop her from making foolish decisions but it was already too late, his wife had already agreed. In the end, Master Gu could only watch Yu Dong take her leave after telling a few more things to his wife.      

Village head Gu's husband, Master Gu waited until Yu Dong was out of their courtyard and hurried over to his wife's side and then couldn't help but say, " You agreed to everything that she said, do you even know that for the sake of digging well, one has to fork out at least three hundred copper coins! And she wants to dig three instead of one, I am afraid that one person in the village will have to fork out nine hundred copper coins which are equivalent to a  silver tael!"      

What annoyed Master Gu, even more, was that even his family had to fork out nine hundred copper coins when grains were being sold at a price where they couldn't even afford to buy a full sack of rice with a silver tael, and at such times Yu Dong wanted to dig well! That too, three of them!     

The more he thought about it the more annoyed he became with his wife who had become a lap dog of Yu Dong and glared at her before he said angrily, " You agreed with her when she said that we will dig three wells in the village. Do you think digging well is that easy? And that too when the situation is like this?"      

"It's better for you to keep quiet!" Village head Gu tried to stay silent and ignore her husband but when she saw that he was getting more and more brazen, she could not help but scold him. " You were the one who hid the fact that she came and told you about the flood, have you forgotten what happened back then? We all almost died!"      

When Master Gu heard the reproaching voice of his wife, his face changed drastically and he could not help but mutter sullenly, " So what if she was right about that? She is a woman, not a master, and all her predictions will come true what if she was wrong about this one? Doesn't it mean that we all will be wasting our money?"      

Seeing that her husband was still running his mouth, Village head Gu wanted to raise her hand and smack some sense into his head but just as she raised her hand, the old mer who knew what was going on in the head of his wife immediately scampered inside the house while muttering under his breath.     

" Always listen to her and not to me, if that is the case then why don't you marry her?"      

Elder Sister Gu was walking out of her room, she was rubbing her eyes and her hair was a bird's nest, one could see that she had just woken up from a nap. When Elder Sister Gu saw her father muttering, she could not help but frown as she poked her pinky finger out and then used it to clean her ear such that she will be able to hear what her father was saying clearly.      

And when she caught a few words, she could not help but say to her father, " Daddy, what are you muttering for? If you keep provoking mother like that she will really go and marry Miss Yu… and I won't even blame her. When compared to you, Miss Yu is so smart, you look like a babbling baboon in front of her."      

Master Gu: "….." Both mother and daughter, they are only living to make life difficult for me!      

A fishy taste rose in his mouth and Master Gu had to chant a few scriptures before he could calm down as he tried to banish the thought of whipping his daughter's bottom until it bloomed but then he heard his daughter say,     

  " I wish my mother was a bit pretty that way she might have been able to seduce Lady Yu."      

Boom.     

An explosion resounded in Master Gu's head as he picked up the broom lying in the corner of the room and then chased after his daughter.  " You just wait for me!"      

…..     

Yu Dong did not know that something like went down in the Gu family, she was heading towards her house which was situated at the foot of the mountains.      

As she was walking towards her house, she suddenly bumped into someone at first she did not realise that she had knocked into someone it was only when she heard a muffled ow did she look down and was surprised to find a kid who was malnourished and bloated, from the oil on his mouth, it looked like he had eaten something when he was roaming in the village but given how his yellow his complexion looked Yu Dong was certain that he was someone who did not get to eat proper meals every day.     

Because it was night, she could only make out the shining oil around the mouth of the kid but other than that, the rest of his face, was covered in dirt and his hair was mangled which made him look like a beggar.     

If Shen Jin's face was cleaned Yu Dong would have surely recognised that this young mer was her brother-in-law.      

" Kid, what are you doing here?"
