Chapter 804: A new tactic?" You are wronging us!" Ye Liu slamd his chopsticks on the table and because he had a guilty conscience, his actions were a bit exaggerated. He could not be blad for reacting like this, he knew that Yu Dong was getting suspicious of him but he had used his body, mind and everything that he had to make her happy and distracted such that she will listen to Shen Li's requests and promise him.
But instead of happily promising Shen Li, this wife was his was getting more and more doubtful of them. At tis like these he wished that his wife was a bit like other won in the village, he found out from other rs that as long as they treated their wives well, the latter would promise them anything. Though those promises never ca true but Yu Dong was different, if she made a promise then she would truly fulfil it but the thing was ——
" Dong Dong, there is sothing that I wanted to say to you. No …what I ant was that there is sothing that I need you to promise ," seeing that Yu Dong was distracted while quarrelling with Ye Liu and Chen Mi regarding their expenses, Shen Li wanted to take advantage of this chance which was presented to him, he thought that Yu Dong would say, ' Yeah, what is it?'
Reality however was completely different from his imagination, not only did Yu Dong stop quarreling with Ye Liu, she turned her entire attention to him and asked, " What kind of promise? I am not making any unless you tell ."
' I am pregnant but because my family is coming to haunt
after selling
off to your mother, I want you to act as if you are beating
and do not care about , such that I will be able to get free from my family's harassnt and oh, you cannot tell about my pregnancy to anyone,' Shen Li, of course, could not say such things to Yu Dong which was why he lowered his head and silently cried in his heart before saying in a soft voice, " Nothing, I want to eat the mushrooms which you are going to grow. I wanted to tell you to save the biggest batch for our family including the snow fungus ."
Just a few days ago Jiang Fenhua received a parcel from his maternal house and which brought back so snow fungus for him to nourish his unborn child. Though his mother did not care about him, his late father's family cared about him a lot and often sent this and that to him, the snow fungus was obviously brought back by Qiao Sha who did not even get to step inside the Chu family house much less see Jiang Fenhua before she was kicked out.
And though Jiang Fenhua did not see Qiao Sha, he brought back a bunch of fresh snow fungus with him as his gift for the birth of the newborn child.
The thing called snow fungus was not sothing that could be brought just because they wanted to, it was rare and was only sold to the officials who lived in the capital or who had their connections. It was rare to get it and Shen Li who ate such a delicious thing imdiately fell in love with it because of his pregnancy cravings.
Though everyone knew it was just an excuse and he was just being a glutton.
But with this excuse of his, Yu Dong naturally stopped pressing for answers and nodded her head before promising that she will bring so snow fungus soon since they were easier to grow when compared to mushrooms.
Only then did she leave the house, causing the three rs to slump on the dining table.
" Why? Why does she have to be so cautious every damn ti? We are her husbands! She can make a little concession for us right?" Chen Mi said in outrage, he still did not understand what his wife ant when she said that even family mbers should never sign any docunts without reading them thoroughly.
Or else there was a chance that they will be cheated out of money. Though Yu Dong used much simpler terms, these rs who just started learning the 'ABC' of language could not understand such a broad example with so many details added to it.
What docunt? What cheated out of money? They only wanted a promise! Why was she using such a tough analogy? Will they eat her alive or what?
" She is not going to fall for it," Ye Liu remarked as he picked up the dumpling which was filled with crab at and took a vicious bite of it, he too did not understand why Yu Dong was so cautious. Though they were indeed scheming against her a little, she should trust them a bit more——even though they were hiding sothing from her, it was for her benefit, how will it look like if the villagers catch their village owner beating the living daylights of Shen Li's sister?
Though that woman deserves it but still! A one-punch knock-out village owner was really terrifying!
Shen Li was also depressed though he wished that Yu Dong would just agree with him, he was much more mature than Ye Liu and Chen Mi, and he knew what Yu Dong was doing was the right thing but still—— if this goes on then how will he stop his family from haunting him? He can wait but his pregnancy cannot, he needed to send his mother and sister packing away from this village by the next month no matter what!
" I say…you three are really useless," a voice spoke to them from the threshold of the house, the three rs including Fang Chi who did not take part in the mission ' fool Yu Dong and take a promise from her' for Shen Li's sake since he cannot say a lie without blushing furiously and were not surprised when they saw Xiao Hua carrying a bunch of cute children clothes with him along with many ribbons.
