Guide to raise my cutie husbands

1025 Yu Dong is worried because little bun is not crawling Madam Lian looked at the money that she had to cough out and her heart ached. With her eyes flickering left and right, she started to think everything carefully, since Jiang Fenhua was not willing to let her be the manager of this shop anymore, there was no need for her to cough out the money.

She was going to leave silently without returning a single penny.

Jiang Fenhua knew what Madam Lian was thinking. His expression turned dark as he glared at Madam Lian before lowering his voice and saying, " Madam Lian, you know that I am the husband of the Marquis Qiao right? I even gave birth to a daughter for her, as long as I use my daughter, I can ask my wife to do anything. In case anyone betrays me or takes my money away, I don't think it will be too hard for me to send the guards after those who dare to scam me, what do you say ?"

Though Jiang Fenhua did not say it straightforwardly, Madam Lian understood what he was trying to tell her. He was warning her to not even think about running away as he would send the Yamen guards after her. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

Though Madam Lian had saved enough money, she still needed to earn and she also had a family, if she was hunted down by yamen guards how would she survive?

Madam Lian's expression turned twisted after she was threatened by Jiang Fenhua. Anger appeared in her eyes as she gritted her teeth and then said to Jiang Fenhua, " Are you threatening me?"

" No, I am telling you a fact," Jiang Fenhua's voice was filled with disdain. " I was going to ask you for just half of the money but now that you are acting like this, it would be better if you cough everything up." He lost his patience after being glared at by Madam Lian and then said firmly, " You are going to cough out every penny that you owe me before this shop is closed, otherwise … you know what I can do."

He then stood up from the chair and then turned to leave.

However, Madam Lian who suddenly found herself in a troublesome situation immediately knelt on the ground and cried, " Master Jiang, I was wrong! I know that I was wrong please don't close the shop. I promise that I will work hard. I will make sure that the revenue from this shop will never go down two hundred taels."

Jiang Fenhua glanced at Madam Lian impatiently and then said directly, " Why should I give you another chance? Madam Lian, you can only bring me two hundred taels but the new owner of this shop can bring me more than a thousand taels. So it's better if you all clean up and leave. Those who just spoke the truth can come to visit me, I will hand you new work" He then walked away, heading towards the carriage.

Madam Lian glared at Jiang Fenhua resentfully, her eyes were alight with little flames as she thought about how she had been humiliated, embarrassed with everything taken away from her. She knew that she couldn't do anything to Jiang Fenhua but that did not mean that she couldn't make a ruckus for that person who was going to take this shop from her.

She was going to make sure that the woman who snatched this golden hen from her would not be able to earn a single penny much less a thousand coins!

Yu Dong did not have any idea that she was being targeted, once she returned home with a blushing Chen Mi behind her, she noticed that Lang was carrying two heavy buckets of water.

" Is something the matter?" She asked while looking at Lang who placed the buckets on the ground and then poured the water into the vat behind the house.

" The stream behind the house is getting smaller by the day," Lang replied as she remembered the thinning stream which flowed behind their house. " Many Villagers are collecting water from the stream since the temperature is so high."

She wiped her sweat and then added, "It's only spring but the weather is getting hotter by the day, I fear to think what might happen in the summers."

After the flood, the stream was flowing with a never-ending supply of water but the temperatures around them were so high that villagers had to look for water every second hour to water their fields as they were cracking and getting drier by the minute.

What was more they shared the stream with the Big Mountain Village and thus the stream was getting smaller with no rain to make it plump anymore.

Yu Dong was not surprised by this information, she knew that the summers of this year were not going to be kind to the farmers. Sometimes even she couldn't help but wonder if it was because the Empress was dead and an undeserving person was sitting on the throne.

Though she was not a superstitious person, she knew that the grudge carried by those who died unjustly was not something that could be treated lightly. What was more, everything went down the drain ever since the Empress was killed and preserved to be used like a puppet.

Lang Ru told her that the Empress died before winter and yet her corpse was laid on the bed of her bedchamber being treated as if she was a patient.

It would be a surprise if the late Empress did not curse her unfilial daughter. It's just that the entire nation had to suffer because of one incapable ruler.

" I have called a few more well diggers, they should be arriving by next morning," said Yu Dong as she watched Little Bun crawling towards her, she crouched down and then picked him up with worry lines coating her face.

It wasn't because of the drought but because Little Bun's birthday was just around the corner and he was yet to start walking! Just how long was he going to crawl?
