Chapter 1038: Just wanted to talk
Those two mother and daughter pair of the Sun family was used to creating havoc every day. If they weren't creating a fuss over what they got and what they didn't, they would be busy sending Sun Jie over to Yu Dong's house. Because the mer did not know what was right and wrong and treated Yu Dong as a playmate, Yu Dong couldn't treat him harshly.
After all Sun Jie was not at fault, his mother was the one who had pushed the idea of Yu Dong being his friend in Sun Jie's head. Even if Yu Dong was to tell Sun Jie that she was not his friend and the two of them couldn't play with each other, the latter did not understand.
Sometimes Master Sun would come to take his son away but he would be beaten up by Mother Sun. Yu Dong naturally knew that the mother and daughter of the Sun family wanted her to take responsibility for Sun Jie but how could Yu Dong do that? She wasn't an Emperor who wouldn't be satisfied with countless beauties in her harem.
What was more she did not have any feelings towards Sun Jie, she sympathized with him but it wasn't enough for her to marry him.
More importantly, the mer was like a child if she were to marry him, wouldn't she have to stay with him as his nanny? No matter how kind Yu Dong was, she wouldn't sacrifice her happiness over others.
" Leave them alone, they will make a fuss for a few days then they will quieten down," Yu Dong did not want to talk about the Sun family just thinking about them annoyed her greatly. It was bad enough that she couldn't kick that lazy family out, they were even having designs over her!
Aunt Wang pursed her lips and turned quiet the second heard Yu Dong say that she did not want to talk about the Sun family. The two of them climbed up the mountain before they came to a stop at a small slope that had a pit between two uneven plots of land. Next to it was another path which led to the barren mountain.
Yu Dong looked at the pit and then narrowed her eyes, the spiritual energy stopped here at this on the mountain which meant that there had to be another water source.
She was hesitant whether or not to dig this place but then she thought about how she had suffered without enough water resources in the apocalypse world and gritted her teeth before saying, " Aunt Wang go and get someone to dig this spot," she picked up a stone and then walked to the uneven plot of land on the mountain. " Get them to dig as far as they can."
Though Aunt Wang did not know what Yu Dong's obsession was with the water wells, she still went to look for the well diggers.
It did not take long for Madam Gong to come looking for Yu Dong, she came to a stop in front of Yu Dong and then said, " I don't mind digging the entire mountain for you but you know the price right?"
" I know," Yu Dong did not mind using money as long as she had enough resources stocked, others might think that she was worrying too much but Yu Dong knew only with enough resources can they live a worry-free life, in the apocalypse she had money but could she buy enough resources with them?
Certainly not.
Yu Dong looked at Madam Gong and then said, " Dig as deep as you can here. Once you find the water source, call me."
" Don't worry, Madam Yu. We will finish this work as quickly as possible," Madam Gong agreed with Yu Dong before taking a few of her workers to start digging in the mountains.
While Madam Gong was busy working in the mountains, Aunt Wang turned to look at Yu Dong and said, " Aren't you worried that the villagers from the other villages would come looking for water sneakily?"
" They won't," Yu Dong confidently replied as she looked at Aunt Wang and smiled politely. " Though the mountains are not under control, they are no longer the properties free of every village. These mountains are owned by me now, it will take them a long time for them to come here and even if they do, it won't be that easy."
She pointed to the Barren mountains where the villagers were already building the sheds for cattle rearing and said, " If they try something sneaky then they will have to think whether they are capable enough to escape getting trampled or not."
Only then did Aunt Wang realise that the reason Yu Dong asked the villagers to rear cattle at the barren mountain was because she wanted to keep the villagers of the other villages at bay?
With the cattle living in the Barren Mountains, it will indeed be difficult for those with bad intentions to crawl inside their village. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
The two of them walked down the village while discussing what else they needed to do when Wang Cai came rushing towards Aunt Wang as she said in a hurry, " Mother, there are a few mammies who came to look for Aunt Yu."
She turned to look at Yu Dong and then stated in a quiet voice, " They said that they want to talk to Aunt Yu about something."
Yu Dong frowned but she still nodded and followed Wang Cai, as she walked past the village, she realized that the mammies about whom Wang Cai spoke were none other than the mammies sent by the Wang family who were trying to get their daughter out of the trouble after kidnapping her and Qiao Sha.
She narrowed her eyes at the mammies before asking quietly, " Are you done playing hide and seek?"
The mammies: Who was the one who playing hide and seek?
Though they were annoyed by what Yu Dong said, they suppressed their anger before the mammy in the lead said, " Our madam wants to talk to Madam Yu about something."
