Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Yu Dong was tickled by the words spoken by Old Madam Zhou. This old woman did not even confirm whether or not her daughter was dead but she was already making a fuss in front of them as if Zhou Xing had been buried by her in the backyard of her house.

" Why don't you straightforwardly claim that I have killed your daughter and ask for compensation?" Yu Dong scoffed as she stared at Old Madam Zhou whose expression turned awkward. " There is no need for you to go through all this song and dance for no reason. Just say what is in your mind, I am not an unreasonable woman who will slap your mouth for speaking too much nonsense."

Old Madam Zhou could not help but swallow her words when she heard Yu Dong's words. She did not know why but for some reason Yu Dong's confidence made her heart waver, was her daughter really dead? If so then why was this woman so courageous? Shouldn't Yu Dong be worried that she would drag her family to the Yamen?

As Old Madam Zhou thought about this, she couldn't help but turn to look at the woman who came to her house to claim that Zhou Xing was dead. However, this time around the woman did not meet her eyes instead she looked away causing Old Madam Zhou to feel a bit flustered. Why was this woman looking away now? Wasn't she the one who came up with the plan?

She was the one who told her that as long as she made a fuss in front of Yu Dong the latter had to give into her whims. That woman's surname Lu even asked her to share some of her riches with her! But now she was turning gazes away from her!

Don't tell her that Zhou Xing was still alive. No that wasn't possible. After all, Lu Yue'an told her that Zhou Xing was bitten by a King cobra, it was impossible for Zhou Xing to make it out of that situation alive. This woman must be acting tough on the grounds that she had some connections with the officials of the town.

But killing a commoner was not something that could be dealt with so easily. Even if this woman had some connections as long as she made a fuss, the magistrate would have to give her justice!

" Madam is wronging me," Old Madam Zhou croaked with a hoarse voice, she hugged her mer grandson who seemed to be startled after getting hugged by Old Madam Zhou who did not even speak kindly to him. " I am only trying to ask for an explanation. Because of your selfishness, my daughter was bitten by a snake and lost her life. Shouldn't I as her mother get her an explanation at the least?"

She rubbed her eyes which were trickling with pearly tears as she continued to speak, " My daughter is the only bread earner of my family and now that she is dead… what will happen to me?"

" You…" Chen Mi wanted to say something but was stopped by Yu Dong who raised her hand and then looked at Old Madam Zhou with a calm and steady gaze. She arched a brow and asked, " Then what do you want me to do?"

Old Madam Zhou felt her eyes light up when she heard Yu Dong's words, she immediately smiled and then pushed her mer grandson in front of Yu Dong before stating calmly, " I want you to marry my grandson. Since you are the cause of the ruin of our family, you should take responsibility for my grandson by marrying him, Madam Yu."

Old Madam Zhou's plan was simple. She wanted her mer grandson to get married to Yu Dong and then help their family by smuggling money and vegetables from the Yu family to their house. That way no one would have to worry about a single thing and they would be able to live a comfortable life.

In the past, there was an old mer who took a fancy to her daughter's face but Zhou Xing was stubborn like a mule.

She refused to serve the old mer saying that she would never do something so shameless and would earn her keep. The keep that she spoke of was nothing but a few copper coins, in Old Madam Zhou's eyes her daughter was stupid. If she had agreed to sleep with that old mer who was a widower then their family would have done much better but Zhou Xing just had to act all smug and proud.

Now that the matters of their family were back in her hands, Old Madam Zhou had no qualms in sending her mer grandson into the bed of a rich woman.

Yu Dong looked at the young mer who was trembling from head to foot. She was part speechless and part sympathetic as she looked at the young mer whose age was not even close to half of hers. They did not even have the same generation and yet Old Madam Zhou wanted her to marry this young mer.

What did she expect them to do after getting married? Play patty cakes with one another?

"You old hag! I am yet to get married and you are sending someone else to warm the bed of my fiancée? Why don't you ascend to the heavens!?" Xiao Hua did not know which God he offended but ever since he got engaged to Yu Dong, he had been getting troubled by this mer and that.

Not a single day went by when he did not have to quarrel with another woman or mer who was trying to get in between him and Yu Dong. Did they think that he was dead or something?

Old Madam Zhou on the other hand was not worried. She had long heard about Xiao Hua and she also knew that the mer was an ex courtesan, thus she did not take Xiao Hua seriously.

Instead of bothering with the mer who was acting all haughty, she turned to look at Yu Dong and then stated coldly, " If you don't take responsibility for my grandson, then I will have no other choice but to take this matter to the Yamen."

As long as this matter was dragged to the Yamen, Yu Dong would have no choice but to accept her mer grandson!

With that said Old Madam Zhou got up and dragged her mer grandson with her.

" STOP!"
