When the villagers saw Yu Dong arrive with a crippled mer, they couldn’t help but be curious but even so, they still smiled and greeted them politely.
“Madam Yu, you are back? It’s a good thing that you are back; if you did not return by tomorrow morning, I am afraid that your youngest son would have flooded the entire village.”
“Hahaha, that’s right. I am sure that poor boy would have solved the problem of drought alone on his own.”
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Yu Dong frowned and asked. Why did these women say such things?
Shen Li, who arrived with his two sons, couldn’t help but be amused by the things that the women were saying. But when he looked down at his youngest son, who was sobbing like a peerless beauty who was missing his lover, he couldn’t help but agree with their words.
Usually Dou Dou did not care about Yu Dong just like Feng Feng but both of them were spoiled rotten by their mother. How could they not miss their mother?
As soon as Yu Dong left and did not return within 24 hours, the two babies, including Bo Bo, started fretting. They all looked at the door every day and waited for Yu Dong to return. When she did not return, they started panicking and the one who panicked the most was Dou Dou.
He started crying the second day and ever since then he has cried and cried. He cried when he ate, he cried when he slept and he cried when he pooped.
It was so distressing, frustrating, and amusing that Shen Li did not know what to do with him.
He walked over to where his wife was standing and handed Dou Dou to her.
“Here, hold him,” he said in mock anger. “I was the one who carried him in my womb for more than nine months and nourished him with my blood. However, the second his mother went missing, he started crying as if the world was coming to an end.”
Yu Dong was startled when Shen Li appeared out of thin air and what was even more shocking was that Dou Dou, this crying baby who cried every time she got close to him, was actually missing her?
She lowered her head and looked down at her son, whose jade-like face had turned red as he sobbed while clinging to her and was speechless. However, even though she was shocked out of her wits —she still coaxed her son.
“Mother!” Yu Jin rushed towards Yu Dong, with Chen Mi following behind him.
“Jin’er! How many times do I have to tell you to stop running!” Chen Mi scolded but Yu Jin did not listen. Even though he stumbled and fell twice, he continued to run towards Yu Dong. And it was only when he arrived close to Yu Dong, did he burst into tears.
“Mother!”
“Wahh!”
“BOO!”
Soon Yu Dong found herself surrounded by four crying kids. She was stunned and frightened and at the same time she tried to calm down the children who were crying so wretchedly.
She looked at her husbands for help but they all simply looked back at her and snorted.
“Don’t look at us, we cannot help you.”
“That’s right, what can we do? The children just love you so much.”
“We have spent more than twenty days like this, I believe you can spend twenty minutes.”
The mer husbands did not want to help, after being tormented by their children for more than three weeks, they wanted Yu Dong to have a taste of their agony!
Yu Dong was stunned when she heard the words of her husbands. However, since they refused there was nothing she could do about it. Yu Dong sighed and then walked over to the house while being followed by her husbands and carrying the children in her arms.
Yu Yue pushed Yu Fei to the Yu house, and when he saw the gigantic house in front of him that was even bigger than the village head and many ministers, Yu Fei’s mouth fell agape. He turned to look at his sister and asked, “Does Dong Dong live here?”
“Of course,” though Yu Yue was not the owner of this grand house, she felt really proud when she thought about how her niece had achieved something that she couldn’t.
No matter who it was, their Yu family name was now famous all over the land.
Yu Fei was even more shocked when he heard that Yu Dong actually own such a big house. He obviously expected that Yu Dong was rich but he never thought that she was this rich!
As soon as Yu Fei arrived at the Yu house, Second Grandma Yu, who was waiting for the return of her son, burst into tears. She rushed to where Yu Fei and Yu Yue were and looked down at Yu Fei, who was sitting on the wheelchair.
Even though she knew that such a thing had happened to her son, Second Grandma Yu still hoped that her son would be fine. But now that the last hope was crushed, she looked at her son and couldn’t help but sob.
“That beast!” Second Grandma Yu gnashed her teeth and said, “How could that bastard do such a thing to you? And Xiao Chuxia, why did she not do anything? How could she let someone bully you like this?”
Over the years, even though they had not been exceptionally useful for the Xiao family, they had supported the Xiao family when they could. How could Xiao Chuxia leave her son in trouble like this and not care? She was obviously the one who chased him!
It was a good thing that the Xiao family ran away and hid themselves; if they hadn’t, then she would have definitely gone to ask for an explanation. Her family might not be rich but there was no way, Second Grandma Yu was going to let anyone bully her son!
