Chapter 1036: How difficult ——2
Only then did the mers heave a sigh of relief while Yu Tong whose face was still red with anger said with a huff, " These merchants are really unscrupulous they think that they can do anything that they want as long as they have money. This is too much!"
Yu Tong returned to the house only to find out that so much happened in a single day. She couldn't help but question whether her leaving the house amounted to something bad happening every day. Each time she left for work something would happen and by the time she returned it would pass.
It was truly a major embarrassment for her as she couldn't protect her family.
"Let us discuss this matter inside," though the villagers were no longer going against their family, they were still nosy as always. Right now most of the mers were standing on the side and cleaning their ears while trying to get a juicy piece of information that they could use at lunch.
Yu Dong did not want her family to become the topic of discussion at the dinner table of the villagers which was why she immediately ushered her family inside the house and then closed the door, leaving a bunch of withered mers who could no longer gossip.
It wasn't that they did not know that Yu Dong's family could not be provoked but ever since Yu Dong became rich and started treating her husbands truly well, they all could not help but become envious. Who would not like a wife who doted on them unceremoniously and cared for them without any restraints?
Thus they would gossip about anything bad that happened to the Yu family thinking that they would be able to ease the jealousy in their hearts a little.
But now that the opportunity was gone, they could only go back home.
On the other hand, Yu Dong stepped inside the house before taking off her shoes and then cleaning her feet on the rug on the floor. Only then did she enter the house and sit down on the couch, the rest of the family followed her even Xiao Hua who usually stayed at his home couldn't stop himself as he rushed inside the house behind everyone.
" So what happened?" Grandma Yu was the one who spoke up first as she looked at Yu Dong who was rubbing her forehead.
Yu Dong did not hide anything and told everything that took place in the courtyard where Wang Shi took her. From being blindfolded to how she got out of the situation, she told them everything except for the room which was covered with blood.
" Thats too much! She not only wanted to buy our vegetables but she also did not want to pay us the right price!" Chen Mi understood what Yu Dong was telling him and was immediately angered. That woman must be dreaming of getting a contract from their family, if this was how sincere she was!
" Exactly!" Xiao Hua chimed up with an annoyed look on his face. "It's a good thing that she was sent to the Yamen. At least with her gone now the matter is over."
" No, it's not over yet," Yu Dong shook her head as she refuted Xiao Hua. She leaned back on the couch before rolling her neck and then leaning back forward as she continued, " The Wang family does not have only Wang Shi and her corrupted aunts. The Wang family includes their husbands as well as an aunt who is an official. I don't think they will just want their sisters and nieces rot in yamen.
So they will most probably come looking for you all. It's better if you stay at home and don't do anything too drastic."
She then turned to look at Xiao Hua and added, " There are a lot of Yamen officers patrolling outside, if you leave for work then make sure that you take one with you."
" All right," agreed Xiao Hua.
After Yu Dong finished explaining the situation she arched her back and then said that she was too tired before retiring to her room. Seeing her tired expression no one stopped her but even so, the mers were quite dissatisfied, it would be better if the Wang family did not come looking for them or else they will teach them a lesson! frёewebηovel.cѳm
From then on it was as if the Big River Village had become a fortress. Even if the Wang family members tried to go inside the village they were stopped by the mammies who asked what they were doing in the village.
At first, the Wang family thought that they could use some money to bring Wang Shi out but the more they tried to get close to Yu Dong, the harder they realized it was to find her. Forget about bribing her, they couldn't even get close to her.
Yu Dong stayed in the village all day long and hardly stepped out of the village even if she did, she would go with the mammies and thus in front of those Yamen mammies the Wang family's servants couldn't bring the matter of bribe.
What was more if they tried to get overboard with Yu Dong's identity they might see Wang Shi returning in an urn rather than on her feet.
It was because of this they were really cautious.
" Useless! All of you are useless! How difficult it is for you to grab hold of a commoner?" Wang Yu felt like she was going to die. All they needed was to bribe Yu Dong and be done with the matter instead they couldn't even see a strand of Yu Dong's hair much less bribe her!
She was sitting in her office as she glared at her people and shouted at the top of her voice, " I already said that we only need to bribe her, tell her that this was an apology gift! How difficult it is for you to do something so simple? And it's not like you are threatening her, so why are you so worried about the Yamen officers?"
