Chapter 493: Starved for so long.
" I…" Yu Dong felt a bit awkward, it wasn't that she didn't go to the Wu family, she did but the Old madam Wu was really stubborn. She wholeheartedly supported He Cheung because he would sometimes bring her a few things and food items as gifts for her 'hard work' in maintaining the peace of the village. Thus, when she went to the Wu family she received the same response as the other families though Yuehua wanted to come with her, he couldn't do anything against his mother-in-law.
"It's all right, I know that old woman is as stubborn as a horse." How can Wu Junfen not understand her mother's thought process, though she lived with her instant mother for only a few years, she understood her really well. She was prideful, vain and selfish to the core …after being taught a lesson by Yu Dong she acted carefully but once Wu Junfen left the house and let her mother become in charge of the household.
She once again started her antics!
Wu Junfen's face turned blue and black as she clenched her fists and sneered, "It's fine to let that stupid old hag suffer a little, if not then she will keep on creating trouble every time I leave her alone!"
After so many years even the ever-patient Wu Junfen was on the verge of losing her patience! Now all she wanted was to throw that mother of her away far away at mars or something where she wouldn't annoy her!

Yu Dong didn't say anything she only listened to her grandma's grumbling and then turned to Fang Chi who was smiling shyly. Arching a brow she asked, " So you knew about this didn't you?"
" I did," Fang Chi nodded his head and tittered softly. " Sister Wu sent me a letter earlier telling me that she will be arriving in a few hours, that's why I sent you outside, I hope you liked my surprise."
"Of course." Yu Dong walked forward and then leaned closer to Fang Chi as she said, " I like it so much that I want to see you in that transparent lingerie again, wear it for me tonight, okay?"
Fang Chi's face flushed red in embarrassment as he took a look at Wu Junfen before smacking Yu Dong on the arm nonetheless he still muttered an 'en' before escaping to the kitchen.
" You really have a lot of heat in your body don't you?" Wu Junfen deadpanned as she looked at Yu Dong with a raised brow.
" I have been starving for three months and a half," Yu Dong shot back. " I am allowed to eat meat now, so I am prepared to have a fun banquet. And what are you questioning for I bet you are all set to do the same."
Wu Junfen strode towards Yu Dong and then smacked the back of her head. "You are really … don't forget that I am still your grandma!"
" Your seniority really is flexible," replied Yu Dong dryly as she walked inside the room where Shen Li was fixing the bed and smiled at him with eyes brimming with affection. She didn't think that her feelings for her mers would be able to increase even further than this but now that she was taking a look at them after so long, Yu Dong felt her heart was getting more and more big.
" Li, you must be tired.. go and drink some warm ginger and honey juice in the kitchen both Mi and Chi are there, you can ask them to heat it for you." Yu Dong lay grandma Yu down on the bed and then softly spoke to Shen Li, if not for Wu Junfen this light bulb of grandmother standing behind her, she would have hugged Shen Li and kissed him to breathlessness.
" En," muttered Shen Li before nodding to Wu Junfen and rushing out of the room.
Yu Dong first took off Grandma Yu's wet clothes and then changed them carefully, after she took a look at her condition with her spiritual energy and sighed. It was just as she expected the water has gone inside Grandma Yu's lungs, now if she wanted to recover it will take a long time and money. Given how much of a petty miser Old man Yu was, Yu Dong couldn't help but wonder if he will take out the money willingly.
" Is she okay?" Wu Jufen heard Yu Dong's sigh and knew that something was wrong, she raised her brows and looked at Yu Dong who shook her head and replied, " The flood water has gone inside her lungs most probably she inhaled quite a lot of water while trying to stay afloat."
Wu Junfen scrunched up her brows seeing her like this Yu Dong was reminded of Yuehua and she hurriedly said, " Don't you want to go and look for your mother and husband?"
" They are smart and no matter how selfish my mother is, she isn't as cruel as Old man Yu. To her selfishness is something for the outsiders but for the family she is willing to give her life for, I am sure that she will keep my husband and fathers safe. But I will still be taking one of your rafts to look for them." Wu Junfen wasn't worried, she knew that her husband was smart and knew how to keep his mind in case of such situations.
He wouldn't be harmed and as long as he was all right everyone else in the family would be fine including her daughter.
" I saw that you still have space in the tree house so I will bring them here as for ration, you don't have to worry. I caught wind of the situation from the letter you sent me and stored quite a lot of things in my space, we will be able to survive for a year at most even without going out of the tree house."
" I just hope that the situation wouldn't go that bad," sighed Yu Dong after she was finished transferring the energy to grandma Yu. " It would be better for things to get better in six months at most."
" It will depend on the people of this village." Wu Junfen smiled forcefully before heading out of the room. Yu Dong too covered Grandma Yu with a blanket and then headed out of the room but instead of leaving immediately she stretched her hand and caught hold of the person hiding in the corner of the room.
