Chapter 157 – [Bonus ]
" What?" it was safe to say that neither of the three husbands understood what Yu Doing said, what lure of beauty? What does their wife mean by this?
Seeing that they haven't understood, Yu Dong grinned, she picked up the papers that Xiao Hua left behind and tapped on the paper which contained the name of all the mers who wanted to redeem themselves " you might not know but these mers are one of the most beautiful mers of the town's tavern. They don't take any woman as their customer in the night yet their demand has never once decreased. They are still as famous as they were when they started, do you understand why is that?"
The three husbands shook their heads declaring that they have no idea why the popularity of these mers never decreased.
" because you guys are so pure that is why neither of you can understand the lure in this business" Yu Dong smiled as she threw her arms around her husbands but because she only had two arms, she could only hug Ye Liu and Shen Li, Chen Mi who was left behind can only stick close to his wife like a little chick " women are lusty creatures, you might not like to hear this but it's the truth. As long as there are beautiful men in the bar, I don't see why we will get no customers. I mean a beautiful man in one hand and wine in another hand, it's a great luxury don't you think?"
Chen Mi narrowed his eyes, as little bun slapped his mother on the neck – a beautiful man and wine? What kind of dangerous combination was this? Wasn't his daddy good enough? Though he was a bit flabby, he was cute no? And if his daddy wasn't cute enough then his cuteness was enough to make up for his daddy's ugliness, right?
Thankfully, Chen Mi didn't know what was going on in his son's head, or who knows whose blood would have been shed.
" wife, you seem to know about it a lot " though they knew that the Yu Dong they knew now wasn't the same Yu Dong who went frolicking around in the tavern, and she was a better woman than their original wife but how did she know so much about this ' lure of beauty'?
Yu Dong coughed, suddenly choking on air. Was it really necessary to become a vinegar jar every time she mentioned other men? It wasn't like she was a hooligan who was chasing beautiful girls in skirts – no wait, it should ne beautiful mers in pants, right?
" it's common sense. Who here doesn't like beautiful things? Don't you three often say that the mer of the Sheng family is really beautiful, isn't it because you appreciate his good looks?" said Yu Dong with a sincere expression like she was taking an oath " I just appreciate their good looks and nothing more, alright ?"
" Really?" asked Ye Liu, wasn't this appreciation a bit expensive? If she wanted to appreciate good looking people weren't they enough? But then Xiao Hua's flashy and beautiful image flashed in his mind and he grimaced. Looking down he noticed that he was wearing a simple cotton shirt and pants with a coarse belt tied around his waist, though it wasn't bad looking, it was a bit plain. Compared to him, Xiao Hua was indeed a sight to behold, Ye Liu looked up and his eyes met with Shen Li and Chen Mi, who were checking out their attires as well.
Yu Dong didn't notice their small actions, she looked at Ye Liu, her smile still in place but her eyes were cold " or else? Do you think of me as some sort of skirt chaser?"
Instinctively, the three mers shook their head in denial. Daddy, their wife was a little too fierce!
Once they shook their heads and didn't continue, the chill in Yu Dong's eyes melted and she smiled like she didn't just glare at them like she was going to eat them up " very well, today is a good day. We will have soy sauce braised pork with green beans today, I will even make your favourite desserts, let's go, let's go"
What can the three of them say? Nothing. Anyway, their Wife was always right.

" Xiao Hua stop being stubborn, the madam who wants to buy you is not just anyone she is from a very distinctive background, you will never lack anything if you agree with her proposal, it's not that bad of a deal right?" the tavern mistress didn't dare to lose her temper on this golden chicken of her. Xiao Hua was her best asset, and he was also in quite a demand, there was a long line of madams who wanted to buy him as their concubine.
Xiao Hua sneered, and flung his sleeves before turning to face his mistress " cousin have toy forgotten that this tavern was originally my mother's, you only inherited this business because I and my daddy couldn't! My mother opened this tavern with the purpose of providing entertainment but in just a few years you converted this tavern into nothing but a low-class brothel! Don't forget the promise you made to my daddy if you can't fulfil your promises to my mother!"
The tavern mistress was Xiao Hua's maternal cousin, after the death of Xiao Hua's mother, she was the closest relative and inherited all the property. Xiao Hua and his daddy were mers and by the laws, they cannot inherit Xiao Hua's mother's property because mers weren't eligible to inherit titles or properties.
Xiao Hua's mother's gave the responsibility of the tavern to his cousin because she believed that his cousin would take care of Xiao Hua and his daddy. In the beginning, his cousin indeed took a good care of Xiao Hua and his daddy but later on she showed her true colours, she cornered his daddy into selling Xiao Hua saying that the tavern has suffered some loss and as she was still getting used to running a business, she wasn't proficient in it, making mistakes was normal.
His daddy didn't want to sell him, in the end, he sold himself. Just like Xiao Hua, his daddy was a born beauty and successfully attracted the attention of the madam who wanted to buy Xiao Hua but before leaving he had Xiao Hua cousin sign an agreement that she will never sell Xiao Hua without his consent. Which was the only thing that was stopping this cousin of his from stuffing him in a rucksack and dumping him in the manor of that madam!
" Xiao Hua you are misunderstanding me -"
" I am not misunderstanding anything, you might say that this is all for my good and you are doing it because you care about me, but you know it in your heart why exactly you are doing it " Xiao Hua sneered before turning around leaving to go inside his room leaving his cousin angry and embarrassed.
" you sure have a big ego! Let's see how long you can carry on like this !" the tavern mistress stomped her feet and turned around just in time to watch a girl bringing Xiao Hua's his meal, seeing the luxuriant beef, The tavern mistress got even angrier as she snapped" who are delivering this meat to? Do you think that this tavern is earning so much money ?"
" but brother Hua -"
" what about him? Isn't he capable? If he is so capable let him arrange for his own meal !" because the tavern was still closed, it was mostly empty. When the tavern mistress shouted her voice echoed around the tavern, she specifically shouted so loudly for Xiao Hua but the reply that she got was –
A loud slam of the door.
The tavern mistress "……"
