NovelEnglishChapter 1005: Taste test
Yu Dong gave Peng Jing a few more slaps until the latter looked like a pig before saying coldly, " I will ask you to repeat what you said just now! Let me hear it once again, whether Xiao Hua is a virgin or not that is something personal and doesn't bother you or anyone else in the village. So why are you speaking up? And even if he wasn't a virgin, it wouldn't have bothered me! So who gave you the right to speak? When you married your husband were you a virgin?"
" What do you mean by that? I am a woman! Who cares whether or not I am a virgin or not?" Peng Jing's eyes were spitting fire, she wished she could swallow Yu Dong whole but she could only hold her cheeks and eye Yu Dong angrily. " As a woman, I have the right to sleep with anyone and as many times, why should I worry about being a virgin or not?" New chapters are published on ɴo(v)elFɪre.net
" Heh, you are not a virgin but you want a mer to keep yourself clean for you? Do you even hear how hypocritical you sound? If a woman can't keep herself chaste then why does she expect a mer to be pure? And what if a mer is not pure? Just because you slept with another mer before marriage did you lose a hand or leg? If your worth remains the same…why should a mer who lost his virtue lower his head in front of you?" Yu Dong hated men like Peng Jing in her past life.
She still remembered how a woman was caught by a bunch of men and was forced because she separated from her husband. That woman suffered so many injuries and torment but she still held on for the sake of her husband, who then abandoned her because she was no longer a chaste woman and was touched by others. He was a coward who couldn't go after the men who harmed his wife instead he looked at the woman in the eye and told her how he could no longer love her anymore as she was no longer pure and beautiful in his eyes.

' When I think of how your body was touched by other men… I feel my very soul getting disgusted by the very thought. I am sorry but I can't even bring myself to hold you much less stay with you.'
After the man left, the woman slowly lost her will to live and died while her husband found another woman and then moved on. Thus she hated the very concept of chastity and whatnot.
Even if Xiao Hua slept with someone she would have accepted him as long as he was willing to be loyal to her.
" And that is not the point of this argument at the moment," Yu Dong ignored the uncomfortable gazes of the women as well as the admiration-filled gazes of the mer as she slammed her foot in between Peng Jing's legs. " The point of the argument is whether or not my vegetables are better than yours or not."
She then turned to look at Ye Liu who started cutting the tomatoes and then started distributing the pieces among the villagers along with the mammies.
When he came to stand in front of Peng Jing the latter hesitated and then picked up a piece as well. She did not wish to take a bite of the tomato but at the same time, she did not believe a single person in the village. What if they lied to her all for the sake of standing next to Yu Dong and proving her right?
Peng Jing took a whiff of the tomato piece trying to make sure that Ye Liu did not put anything on it but when she smelled nothing but fresh sour and sweet scent, she looked up at Yu Dong who was looking down at her and then bit the piece of tomato in her hand.

The second she took a bite, Peng Jing felt as if she had eaten a delicacy like no other. The fresh taste of the tomato along with the hint of mellowed-down sweetness was so refreshing and good that she wanted to have more of it!

Yu Dong asked while looking down at Peng Jing only then did the latter snap out of her daze after eating something good and looked at Yu Dong before averting her eyes and then stating softly, " …not that good. I don't see much difference in my tomatoes and yours."
Now that the situation was like this, she couldn't just lose control of the situation! She had to keep pretending that her tomatoes tasted the same!
" Really? I don't think that there is any way Peng Jing could grow tomatoes as good as these," one of the villagers mumbled as she bit onto the small piece of tomato that was left in her hand and felt regretful that she did not have any more to eat.
" You really won't take that attitude down unless you see your coffin, will you?" Yu Dong remarked with a smirk before she turned to look at Ye Liu and the rest and said, " Start cutting the tomatoes grown by Peng Jing! I want to see how good they taste!"
Peng Jing's eyes widened as she scrambled to her feet despite the pain and then said, " You can't! I mean…" When she noticed the villagers eyeing her suspiciously she stuttered and then stated, " I mean I am going to sell those vegetables if you hand them to taste, what am I going to sell ?"
" Why do I feel like she is just making excuses?" A mer asked his wife.
His wife looked at her curious yet naive husband and then said with a sigh, " Because she is making excuses, her vegetables are not as good as Yu Dong which is why she is trying to make the most out of it."
The woman was worried that Peng Jing might simply act stubbornly and refuse to let Yu Dong touch her vegetables.
