Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 806: Let us stay

" Miss Yu, please be magnanimous and allow us to marry into the house of our mother in law, my child is sick and she is on the verge of dying from starvation, I am willing to be your bull or your slave, if you want then you can even take my land deeds, but please let us stay in your village!" Tan Mo pleaded with her forehead knocking on the ground harshly.      

" Mother, why are you begging?" Tan Mo's mer sons did not understand what was going on, they saw Tan Mo and Xiao Yu go to their knees in front of the woman who was standing in front of them and were very much confused.      

Their mother did not even beg Village head Chou when she snatched all the grains from their house and took them away without leaving a handful for their elder sister who was sleeping because she was feeling too hot.     

Seeing their mother go down on her knees, the mer sons looked at each other not knowing what to do.      

Hu Pan and Hu Bing on the other hand, also went down to their knees as they knocked their heads on the ground. They had no other choice, the Big Mountain village will never accept them even if they never touched the human flesh which was eaten by the people who lived in their village.      

That village had suffered so much under the hands of women like Yang Jie and Qi Qing, if they were to forgive them and allow them to come inside their village it will be a goddamn miracle!      

But the Big River Village was different it was yet to be plagued by the atrocities of Yang Jie and Qi Qing, what was more, their mother was here as well, if she was to take them in they will have a chance to stay alive. By now the people in their village must have woken up it will not take them much time to realise that their families were missing when they don't see them going to their fields, in case they came looking for them and they did not get the protection of a village till then, Hu Pan and Hu Bing were afraid that they will be the next in line to get killed!      

First will definitely be their wives who betrayed the village and then them, once they were dead, their kids —— will have no one to save and protect them.      

When the kids saw that their parents were kowtowing they did not continue to stand, they too went down on their knees and started pleading with Yu Dong followed by the other husbands of Tan Mo and Xiao Yu.     

" All right stop," Yu Dong felt her head throb as she saw the two families kowtow in front of her. She raised her hand and then pressed the back of her hand on her forehead as she looked at the two women who were the heads of their respective families. "Did you all run away from the Big Stone Village?" She asked while looking at their malnourished condition.     

It was not that Yu Dong was looking down on Big Stone Village but the residents of that village were acting as if they were the only ones who suffered greatly. Though she knew in advance that a flood was coming many villagers did not trust her words and were almost drowned which was why she had to use her strength to rescue them.      

The same could be said for Da Qiao, who was the village head of the Big Mountain River. Though the woman had no power or special skills, she had wits and courage, she boldly braved the strong waves in a small boat which she made from the trees in the mountain and then saved as many people as she could, if she could do something like this then how come Village head Chou couldn't?     

It was because Village head Chou was lazy and wanted to eat without working hard, after being buttered up by her villagers in the past few years, she had become a lazy bum and despite being a narrow-minded ghost she thought that she was better than everyone else.     

And because she was a bad leader who did not take the initiative to protect her villagers, the others followed suit and did not do anything but watch their fellow villagers die one after another.     

Thus, after the flood struck their lands, Big Stone Village was the only village that suffered great casualties. Yu Dong heard from Village head Gu that Village head Chou of the Big Stone Village was upset with their village because they did not take pity on her village despite them being pitiful.      The sourcᴇ of this content is novelenglish.net .

Was it her fault that she was in a pitiful situation? She lost her villagers because she reacted in a cowardly manner when facing the flood and she and her villagers were starving because they did not take the conditions and the rising price of grains seriously, they did not wish to fish their savings out believing that the price will drop.      

And now that they were in such a condition, they wanted their neighbouring villages to take out their life-saving grains and hand them for free just because they were pitiful? Can there be such a good thing in life?     

This was why Yu Dong did not like anyone from the Big Stone Village, after all, they had more than one way to stay alive but they chose the worst way out of all.      

Tan Mo heard the criticism note in Yu Dong's voice and shivered, she knew that Yu Dong was not willing to let them inside her village and she did not blame the latter either, after all, if she was in her shoes, she too would not have allowed anyone from her village take a step inside her village!
