Chapter 790: Make her hit you as hard as possible

Chapter 790: Make her hit you as hard as possibleThe child's arrival could be said timely, with Yu Dong busy with her newborn, she did not have the time to ask if there was something weird happening in the village and even Lang forgot to mention this matter to Yu Dong as she was running around taking care of this and that.          

Shen Li watched Yu Dong sitting next to Fang Chi as she tried to get close to her newborn and heaved a sigh of relief, if not for this child's arrival he was sure that Lang would have told Yu Dong about Shen Hanxing's arrival and then it would have been really troublesome, with Yu Dong busy with the child, he had a few more days to think about everything carefully.      

Taking a rash decision was not right at the moment, which was why he needed to stay quiet and think of the right way to solve the matter, in fact, the first thing he needed to do was to come up with a solution to break this news to Yu Dong without her making a clamour and announcing the entire village that he was pregnant.      

He knew very well that Yu Dong despite not pressuring him to have a child was looking forward to having a child the most, in case she finds out that he was with a child, then making her quiet was simply impossible and this was the reason why Shen Li was flustered about telling this joyous piece of news to Yu Dong.      

If it was before he would not have minded the noise she would make but with his family eyeing them like a predator, it will be really troublesome.      

Shen Li left Yu Dong alone with Fang Chi and then walked out of the room, seeing him leave, Chen Mi and Ye Liu walked out as well. In the living room, Uncle Fu was making small envelopes with Grandma Fang and Grandma Yu, they were putting ten cents in the envelopes because when Little Bun was born Yu Dong did not have the money to hand these envelopes to the village including the candy which was distributed when a child was born.      

Generally, the amount in these envelopes only ranged from five to three coins but since the birth of two children was being celebrated they added then ten cents to the small paper envelopes.     

" What is the matter with you three?" Grandma Yu who was closing the paper envelope looked up at the three mers who were very silent and did not seem to be speaking. Were they jealous? When she thought about this, she remembered what Qiu Bai that son-in-law of hers had done to the mers of this house and her eyes dimmed before she sighed and spoke to the three grandsons-in-law with a polite smile, " Do not worry, you three will soon get a chance to get pregnant as well."      

When Chen Mi heard Grandma Yu say those words he knew that she must have misunderstood their silence and immediately refuted her, "Grandmother-in-law, it is not what you think. We are not acting like this because of Brother Chi giving birth to a child, but because we are worried about something."      

It was normal to be jealous for mers when someone gave birth to a child when they could not thus it was not wrong of Grandma Yu to think that they were feeling jealous either.      

" Worried? About what ?" Grandma Fang raised her head and looked at the three mers with a jolly smile, tonight she was really happy even though the child to whom her grandson gave birth to a mer, he was his blood and flesh. And grandma Fang who was getting old no longer cared about mer or girl, as long as the house was filled with the voices of children she adored the warm atmosphere.      

After all, when she was so close to death why will she worry about such things as the gender of the child?      

She had lived her life in complete solitude with just Fang Chi to accompany her, they have been ignored and bullied by the villagers because they did not have any strong and sturdy women in the house. Thus, staying with the Yu family brought immense happiness to her.      

Shen Li hesitated but then he looked at the closed door where Fang Chi and Yu Dong were, though the door was closed he knew that his wife could hear anything as long as she was paying close attention to which was why he did not speak instead he snuggled close to Grandma Yu and then whispered in her ears.      

At first, Grandma Yu was a bit awkward when she saw her grandson-in-law leaning close to her ear after all mers kept their distance from women who were older and strangers to them but she did not push him given how Yu Dong did not mind it when Shen Li and Yu Tong stayed close to each other she would instead join in their jokes.      

Since she was staying with her granddaughter-in-law, she did not want to press her narrow-minded ideas on Yu Dong's husbands either.      

However, soon she did not have the time to worry about such a thing, when she heard what Shen Li said to her, her eyes widened in disbelief. She snapped her head to the side and looked at the blushing mer then dropped her gaze to his belly and then back up to his face before scrunching up her brows and asking in a very soft voice,  " Why can I not tell her that?"      

Shen Li once again leaned in closer to Grandma Yu's ear and then spoke about what happened earlier in the afternoon, once he was done speaking, Grandma Yu's brows were scrunched up so closely that they could have squeezed a fly.      

"What's the matter, Grandma?" Yu Tong was sitting on the floor in charge of counting and distributing the coins since she was the only one whose eyes were working fine and she knew how to count as well, upon seeing Shen Li's blushing face and her grandma's furrowed brows, her mind could not help but think of several things but she did not say anything nor did she jump on the conclusion, instead she turned to look at Grandma Yu and asked what was going on.     

Grandma Yu hesitated but she could not think of any other option rather than telling Yu Tong and coming up with a solution, this was the first time she was hearing such a thing. Such a joyous news and they have to hide it like it was something evil!      

With that thought in her head, she leaned down and told the same thing to Yu Tong whose brows scrunched up in the same manner as her grandmother and she turned to look at Shen Li with a dumbfounded look on her face but even she could not come up with any suggestions, all she knew was that she wanted to beat that Shen family to death. They have to be joking!      

But seeing that Shen Li did not laugh and say 'Surprise I am just teasing you',  she could only swallow her curses and then turn to Grandma Fang who told the same thing to Uncle Fu whose brows knitted and he paused in his actions of making paper envelopes.      

" Does the agreement which was signed by sister Yu not say that your family can't bother you after you are sold?" Uncle Fu asked as he raised his head and looked at Shen Li who nodded his head and replied, " It does say that but my sister and mother are not afraid of trouble, they have been in and out of yamen many times especially my sister—— she was once a local thug and she is not scared of trouble at all. Even if I complain and she is sent to yamen, she will be released in a few days …after all, such a thing will not place heavy charges on her."      

Uncle Fu's brows scrunched up a little when he heard that, what Shen Li said was right those who did not worry about trouble will never fear anything unless their life was in danger but the thing was —— just badgering a family member because they were in dire need will not be enough to press heavy charges.     

He pursed his lips and then took the pile of ten copper coins and then after careful consideration said,  " Your only chance of getting rid of them is first you free your father and the kids, from what you have told me. It seems like they are not a bad bunch but the thing is that it will be especially hard since your mother might come to realise that they are your weakness."      

" So if you were to ask me your best bet will be to make Yu Dong hit you as hard as she can in front of your family just like she used to when she was not sane."
