Chapter 8 - Could Not Save Himself

Yu dong didn't say anything and Yu Liu didn't know what to say either he took the chicken soup and went back inside Chen Mi's room while Yu Dong went to her backyard and checked the soil condition of her vegetable patch just like everything in the Yu household this patch was in poor condition as well. The mers might have tried to take care of it but they had no idea how to take care of a farming patch they have been used to enbroidering,c ooking and helping in the field but taking care of an inferior land from the scratch was something they didn't know at all there was no fertilisers added to the field and it was cracking even when it was brimming with water the mers have tried to save it by adding extra water since they couldn't afford fertilisers but an inferior piece of land needed a lot of fertilisers to become suitable for farming with just water there was no chance to save it. Yu dong sighed and crouched down, she placed her palm against the soil patch and frowned the previous Yu Dong was raised like a spoiled princess by her mother and father as she was their only daughter and maybe because she was the eldest granddaughter her grandparents loved her to core as well but that changed when her auntie ' mer gave birth to a son. She shook her head, i didn't matter to her what history the previous Yu Dong had, wht mattered to her was how she took the challenges in her life, yesshe lost her parents, yes he was kicked out of the Yu family together with her mers but that didn't justified her alcoholism and lack of awareness towards her responsibilities. Yu Dng pressed her palms against the soil and let her spiritual energy heal the damage done to the vegetable patch for so many years. She ha no confidence in any other job except being a little farmer girl, she kne nothing about cooking and her dishes were close to mediocre not worth opening a restaurant, her bestdishes were roasting a whole lamb and dishes that had sea food in it, where thehell she was going to get sea food in this village? And even i she did, where would sh she get the money to start a restaurant? She was good at embroidery and had no idea about fashion, as she was a tomboyish type of woman in her past life, with hair shortened to her shoulders and no sense. Her ready-to-go look comprises sunscreen and lip balm. But farming, she was confident in her spiritual energy; she was certain that no matter what the plant was, she would be able to grow it, and no matter how inferior the land, she could turn it fertile. Yu Dong continued channelling her energy into the ground, so that it shimmered with ga reenish hue, and once she was certain that the soil was good enough, she picked herself up and cleaned her hands, wiping away the dirt. She was just thinking about plowing the land when a loud bang resonated from the kitchen and Ye Liu's shouting could be heard Yu Dong was stunned she couldn't understand what made Ye Liu shout like that but maybe the baby was coming - The BABY WAS COMING, Yu Dong who had no idea about baby or labour rushed in but she was bound to be disappointed because there was no baby in incoming. Ye Liu glared at the woman in front of him, wile he was in the labour room he heard someone knock, hethought that someone came to buy pig tripe or blood and opened the door but the second he opened it, a woman brushed past him and started searching the utensils without asking his permission - Ye Liu hasn't seen this woman for at least six months and yet she was as shameless as ever rushing in to snatch the meat from their house after renouncing their family? Shameless! " What do you think you are doing? We are no longer family! How dare you barge in here and snatch things from us ?" Demanded Ye Liu furiously, he was afraid that if the meat was stolen by this woman today, Yu Dong might never bring any hunt back home, she might even get angry at them - and there was also Chen Mi he needed all the nutrition he could get after giving birth how dare this shameless woman who threw them out try to take it away. Yu Towh,o was stopped by a mer, immediately turned angry... she stopped her search and glared at Ye Liu. How dare a little mer like you dare to talk like this with your yourcousin-in-lawx, months and havyohavegottenn already that I'm your yourcousin-in-lawo, what if I want to take the meat? Is mItmIt 'sousino hunted it n, to, you !" That's right, it was Yu Ton, YuDong's sister. Jst like Yu Dong she was pampered since birth an she never placed mers in her eyes, so hen she was stopped by Ye Liu she couldn't withstand it and lashed out - however even after lashing out her temper didn't ease so she picked up a cutlery bowl and threw at Ye Liu thanflly,e Li had fast reflexes and dodged. But that Yu Tong was angry and upset her chest, and she picked up another bowl to throw at Ye Liu ." You shameless hussy, you dared to dodge. Have you forgotten that as a man you need to bow your head down to your wife's in-laws? How dare you talk back, how dare you act such towards me, let me teach you a good lesson !" With that she r, she raised her hand to throw the bowl again at Ye Liu, who lost his eyes and gritted his teeth h;n ew This time, he wouldn't be willing to protect himself.
