Chapter 509: Yu family is not allowed!
Dedicating todays chapter to time_less, OneMore_Chapter22.
Yu Dong already knew that something like this would happen after she was done rescuing the villagers, after all, she has seen something similar happening in the apocalypse world as well, so she wasn't the least bit worried about the ruckus the villagers were causing, instead, she raised a hand and calmly said, " All right since you all have so many objections then I will agree to take two people from each household, it doesn't matter whether its mers or women, however, I will be taking only two of your family members so chose carefully."
She then turned to look at Village head Gu and somewhat distressingly said, " It might have looked like I purchased a lot of ration but I have a lot of people to take care of, at most I can only bring two people from each household with me, there is no other way to solve this crisis."
"Then I——" Ah Cy began but Yu Dong stopped her before she could say anything else. " You don't count, two of your family members are already with me have you forgotten?"
Yu Dong flashed a smile at Ah Cy causing the latter to stare at her in shock, that was right. Yu Dong has saved Sun Jie and his father, that way she already had two members of the Sun family with her, in short, the condition that she just now put forward didn't apply to the Sun family.
"That...That ..those two didn't count!" Once Ah Cy heard that Yu Dong was actually refusing her shelter because of the two useless mers who were of no value to her and her family she immediately became agitated and then blurted out her true thoughts out loud.
" Why don't they count? Are they not registered under your family name? That shouldn't be right, after all, if that was the case then the Village head would have said something by now."
" That's not what I mean—-" Ah Cy tried to counter Yu Dong's argument but she couldn't think of any counterarguments, Yu Dong was right. Sun Jie was indeed her brother and his father was her daddy as well but the two of them were mers! That was the most important thing! The two had nothing to do with her family even if they lived or died, their lives couldn't be compared to hers and her mother's!
" Then I don't see what are you getting antsy about?" Yu Dong shrugged her shoulders, she was very much aware of how greedy Ah Cy was, just from the way she ruthlessly stomped on her brother's hands when she was trying to rescue them was enough to let her know what kind of person Ah Cy was, letting her come with her was similar to asking a mad dog run wild in her house.
But she also knew that Ah Cy was like a stubborn cockroach no matter how many times she stomped on her head, the latter wouldn't budge until she got what she wanted which was why she deliberately came up with this idea. Anyway, the villagers have never been kind to her, so she didn't owe them anything, even taking two of their family members was already enough help on her part.
" After all your daddy and brother were left in the water for so long, the water seemed to have filled their lungs and if they are not taken care of properly then both of them will surely die. I bet you are not as inhuman as to snatch medical attention from two sick mers, after all, one of those mers is your father as well, isn't there a saying that there is no unfilial child by a parent sick bed?"
Ah Cy too realised that Yu Dong has deliberately made things difficult for her, she couldn't say anything except reveal an angry and embarrassed expression, she wanted to shout that she didn't care about the life and death of the old mer but after Yu Dong brought up filial piety, even if she wanted she couldn't say anything. Even if that mer was useless good for nothing, he was still her daddy! Just this relationship alone was enough to make her retreat.
Once Yu Dong was done dealing with Ah Cy she turned to look at the other villagers. She didn't say anything to them but after what Yu Dong said they were too embarrassed to say leave their husbands and children behind, in the end, one by one all the villagers turned to their husbands and asked them to follow Yu Dong, some even cheekily said that their husbands were sick and asked Yu Dong to let them follow them.
Fine, if they couldn't follow Yu Dong then at least let them send their husbands away, that way they didn't have to worry about scrounging food for them.
Qui Bai and Old master Yu also wanted to follow Yu Dong but the latter stopped them under the pretext that she already had Grandma Yu and Yu Tong in her hideout and with so many people following her she has to no place to add the two of them anymore.
" Why? I am your elder too! Why is it that they are allowed to go with you but I as your grandfather isn't allowed?" Old master Yu didn't want to go with others, he could see that they had no plans and had no idea what to do either, if he went with them he would definitely suffer but before he could even say anything, he was refused. How can this be allowed?
Yu Dong had no good feelings regarding the rest of the Yu family, the previous owner might have been good for nothing but that still didn't explain the heartless behaviour of kicking her and her pregnant husband out of the house and what's more, she has been long suspicious of the Yu family because of the matter regarding her husbands being poisoned because one thing popped out after another she didn't get the chance to look into the Yu family matters but instinctively she knew that the poisoning of her husbands was clearly related to the Yu household! She would be damned to let them come with her!
