Chapter 66 - Build A House
Yu Dong was very cautious of the villagers who stayed in the village but she completely forgot those who didn’t even sleep at the village last night! Yu Tong was one of those villagers who didn’t return to the village last night instead she, stayed at a tavern frolicking around with a few famous escorts of the tavern house.
Yu Tong wasn’t slighted by her father at all even though she had a brother, she was still a girl the next heir of the Yu family, her brother would most likely be married to a woman and even if he succeeds in becoming an official, even then he would be someone’s husband and would have to listen to that woman.
By then it would be Yu Tong’s responsibility to take care of the family, of course, Yu Tong only liked the benefits of being the heir, she never once thought about taking any responsibility for the Yu Family.
Because of her mother and father’s indulgence, Yu Tong was never short on money, which was why even after spending an entire night at the tavern, she still had enough money to roam on the streets of the town with her lover. Of course, her lover was only her lover, she had no intention of marrying him – to her this mer, was nothing less than what a modern person would call a bo*ty call.
Yu Tong didn’t want to go out with this lover of her, he wasn’t as pretty as the escorts of the tavern but the latter insisted. He clearly gave her an ultimatum that if she doesn’t come with him to shop then he would break things up with her. Yu Tong was a scumbag but she was a very calculating scumbag, the only reason she was keeping this mer by her side was that he was a bit ‘ cheap’ to keep when compared to the escorts of the tavern.
So when she didn’t have money, she would call this mer to relieve her itch. Because this mer’s wife was dead he was dependent on client’s like Yu Tong, she knew she wasn’t his only lover, if he broke things off with her, he won’t lose much, just a sway of his plump hips and some furtive sneaky glances at other women and he will have another client to entertain. But Yu Tong would lose one of her sneaky links, not to mention the mer was really pretty.
Which was why she was willing to indulge him and brought him to shop around but never did she expect to see Yu Dong. Not only did the latter come out of a very expensive restaurant, she even went to the shop that sells building materials! From where did Yu Dong earn so much money!
Yu Tong was the perfect example of a big fish in a small pond. The descendants of the Yu family were simple, but when Yu Dong this hooligan was born, she was like a rotten egg that became the black mark in the Yu Family’s history. Compared to her Yu Tong was considered a good child, from a young age Yu Tong was used to looking down at Yu Dong, she firmly believed that Yu Dong was good for nothing just like her father did, she knew that Yu Dong was changed but Yu Tong thought that it was just temporary.
However, contrary to her expectations Yu Dong was still sober and she was working hard! Now she can even afford to buy building materials! Not good, she has to tell this to her father, if Yu Dong started earning a good sum of money, would it not be a big loss for them?
” honey? What’s wrong? ” Yu Tong’s lover was eyeing an expensive piece of clothing for quite a while. Even though he spread his love for more than a week, to different women, he was still short on a few taels, he was looking forward to being f*cked by Yu Tong and getting his sum of money but then –
To his surprise, Yu Tong shook off his arm and pushed him away ” I can’t do it right now, I just remembered that I have something to do tonight” then without bothering to even listen to what the mer was saying Yu Tong ran away. She wanted to catch the first cart to the village!
Yu Dong didn’t know that she was seen by someone, instead, she simply ordered the things that she believed were useful and then left the shop after depositing the advance payment.
” wife, why did you order so much wood? We don’t need a wooden floor, it’s fine even if we use bricks or stones” Ye Liu was especially distressed though they earned eighty silvers, his wife ordered building material worth twenty taels! That wasn’t something he saw every day, to him this kind of expense was useless what wooden floor, what window panes? Wasn’t it good enough to block the winds with paper? And the brick floor was the best! There was no need to waste so much money!
” little bun is young, if he falls, he will hurt himself and the window panes are necessary too – the paper won’t be able to withstand rain, do you still want to stick new paper every day when it rains? That’s so taxing you might as well brew more wine instead of doing that” said Yu Dong, now that she no longer need to worry about a stable income she might as well spend lavishly! With Song Yixu’s signed contract in her hand, she no longer needs to worry about anything!
Ye Liu hesitated for a while and then agreed ” I understand but still it’s not cheap we actually spent twenty taels in one go”
” don’t worry about money anymore, didn’t you see me sign that contract? We will be fine for now, Madam Song said that our alcohol is faintly popular in the restaurant as long as the trend of warming up with a cup of wine is popular in the rich people we don’t need to worry about starving”
Ye Liu shook his head ” I’m not worried about us starving, it’s a little bun, he is a mer in the future he will need a wholesome dowry to be married in a good household “
You, Dong, laughed at his words and patted him on the shoulder ” don’t worry, little bun is still too young. I will save a decent sum by the time he grows up, and it’s so far away in the future why are you worrying about it so early? “
‘ I am not only worried about little bun but our kids as well! Will not have children in the future? What about them!’ Ye Liu was really unhappy that Yu Dong had never thought about having kids with him, she treated him well but she wouldn’t even try to lay a hand on him – if this goes on how will he give birth! Was he supposed to strip his wife and jump on her or strip himself and seduce her?
