Chapter 902: Groundhogs to the rescue ——2
Even his sisters told him to stay quiet and suffer silently, they did not care whether or not he died what they cared about was whether or not their reputation will be damaged. Ning Yu was heartbroken and ever since that day he never took the initiative to contact his family and it just so happen that his family never contacted him ever again either.
Years passed by but his sisters did not even stop to see what kind of life he was living, whether he was dead or alive. As long as he did not affect them, they did not care about anything, the world was selfish and cruel this was something that he knew but he never thought that even his family was this cruel.
Shi Xi was the same, even though his family was not as ruthless as Ning Yu. Her mother did not allow him to take a divorce, she simply told him that she did not have the money or the sources to take care of him after he divorced, she further added that a mer with children was frowned upon and cannot survive in society.
No matter how many times Shi Xi told her that he did not need a woman to survive, his mother did not listen to him and asked him to return and never come back to his maternal family. She was straightforward as she announced that she did not even have two coins to rub together, so how can she take care of him and his kids?
The irony was that his three sisters were eating chicken drumsticks and eggs when his mother claimed that she had no money.
Shi Xi was heartbroken and never went to look for his mother and father again but he never let go of the thought of divorce. In his heart as long as he was alive he would one day leave his wife such that he could live his life to the fullest.
Now that Yu Dong was offering him the chance that he had been waiting for, he could not help but ask, ” Are you sure? You can truly help us divorce our wife?”
Even Ning Yu turned and looked at Yu Dong even though he tried to hide it, he could not mask his excitement.
Seeing the two of them like this Yu Dong was a bit speechless, she wanted to ask what kind of torture Madam Shen gave the two mers that they were willing to divorce them without even thinking twice. But since they did not wish to tell her about the past, she did not pry either and simply nodded as she said, ” Naturally since I have promised to Ah Li to bring you all to this village, I have my plans. All you need to do is play along with me and we will see if your wife still tries to hold onto you or not.”
When Ning Yu and Shi Xi heard Yu Dong say that there was a chance that Madam Shen will hang onto them, they smiled mockingly. They were very well aware of the fact that Madam Shen will not think twice before abandoning them as long as she could gain some benefits from Yu Dong and the rest.
” All right then it’s decided!” Chen Mi clapped his hands and then looked at Ning Yu and Shi Xi. ” We have a house that is empty though it’s being used as an oil mill there are few rooms that you can take up for the time being. Once the snow melts we will think of making a house for your family.”
It wasn’t that Chen Mi did not wish to make a house for Ning Yu and Shi Xi right away but with the new year just around the corner, no one in the village will be willing to work.
They needed to wait for the New Year to pass before hiring workers to dig up a place and start building a house for the Shen family. As he thought about the Shen family, he could not help but think of his own family and his eyes dimmed a bit.
Who knows what kind of life his mother might be living now that she and his sisters could not get out of the village because of him, they even fought with the Chen family and separated, and with their sour relationship surely his aunt will not share anything with his mother.
Yu Dong of course did not miss the dimming of Chen Mi’s eyes and knew that he was thinking of his family which was why she sighed and then said, ” Mi, go and bring something which has the scent of your mother.”
Now that she had already come up with a plan she might as well start working on it, there was no point in delaying. The new year was on the weekends and it was better to send a few things to her mother-in-law, maybe that way she will be able to earn a few more brownie points with Mother Chen.
Chen Mi was stunned when he heard Yu Dong’s words but he still tottered towards his room and then brought out a large cloth which his mother used to send some dried chestnuts and clothes to him and handed it to Yu Dong, ” This was sent by my mother, will it work?” nov𝐞𝔩𝑈𝓈𝒃\𝗰\o/𝐦
Yu Dong looked at the cloth and then instilled her spiritual energy which made Mother Chen’s scent a bit more intense and nodded, ” It will work,” she then turned to look at Chen Mi and asked, ” Go and bring what you want to send to your mother, make sure not to increase the baggage.”
Her words caught Chen Mi and the rest by surprise but seeing that she was heading outside Chen Mi, Ye Liu and Fang Chi hurriedly packed up the things which Chen Mi wished to send to his mother and hurried out of the house while carrying small cloth bags only to find Yu Dong crouching down with a group of groundhogs lining up in front of her as they sniffed the cloth which Chen Mi gave to her.
