Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 819: A kid wants to marry Yu Dong

When Shen Jin heard that Ye Liu was going to bring the kids to buy puppies, his face flushed with excitement. When he was young, he too wanted their house to have a hen, a goat and a pup, but their family did not even have enough to feed to humans, from where will they get the money to feed those hens and goats?          

He had been to Shen Li’s house and he knew that his elder brother not only had hens and chicks but he also had goats and ducks, there was a small coop where they even raised rabbits which hopped around in the backyard looking really cute.      

And now they were going to get puppies as well? How exciting!      

Shen Li saw the eyes of his little brother, and when he saw how excited he was with just the mere mention of puppies, he could not help but feel heartache for his little brother, truly raising a hen and pup was not a big deal as long as they were willing to work hard they can give their kids what they wanted but his mother was like a Scrooge, she would be willing to spend more than thousand of copper coins on those worthless wine jars but she will not hand even a single copper coin to his father or Shi Xi which will allow them to make sure that the kids will not be starved at the house.      

His eyes carefully looked at Shen Jin and when he saw his yellow complexion and bony physique, he knew that his mother was still the same kind of person. Alcoholic and a spendthrift who liked to become rich while taking shortcuts which was nearly impossible.      

” Little Jin, if you want to take a look at puppies, you can go with your brother Liu,” Shen Li kindly spoke to Shen Jin in fact he would have liked to keep Shen Jin with him but if he kept Shen Jin without taking care of his mother and sister, it will not take long for them to sneak inside their house as well.     

This was a trouble that he very much did not wish to take on which was why he could only send Shen Jin back to his father while hoping that one of these days he will be able to bring Shen Jin and his father back with him, that way, his mother will no longer have leverage over him.      

” Really, I can go and see the puppies ?” Shen Jin asked to Shen Li, his eyes shining brightly as he looked at his elder brother who nodded and replied, ” Yes, maybe if you like one of those puppies you can even bring  him or her back with you, I will take care of that puppy for you and in case you miss your puppy, you can come back and have a look.”      

Shen Jin also knew that he will never be able to bring the puppy he chose back with him but when he heard Shen Li said that he was going to take care of the puppy, he immediately agreed and then turned to look at Ye Liu.      

What can Ye Liu say? He had no problem regarding taking care of another puppy. There were already a few hens, ducks and goats in their backyard, adding another puppy on top of the one they were going to bring with them was not going to be troublesome at all.     

” Yes, you can come with us, if you like a puppy then you can keep him for yourself, in the future you can come and take a look at the pup,” as he spoke Ye Liu looked at the bony wrist of Shen Jin and felt a sudden rush of sympathy, Shen Li’s mother was really ruthless. A few sacks of coarse grains did not cost much and with the amount that she earned after selling those kids of hers, she had enough money to buy a plot of land and work hard on it but she wasted all the money on drinking and whoring around.      

Now look at this her kids were as skinny as a corpse with only a thin layer of skin covering their bones. Did she not feel any pity for them? Just what kind of heart did she have, even he felt a bit sympathetic towards this kid who was all bones and skin with not a single ounce of fat on his body, how can that mother of his ignore his condition?     

Though Ye Liu was a bit annoyed with the actions of Mother Shen, this was the Shen family’s matter and there was only a little bit that he could say which was why he simply brought Shen Jin with him to Wu Junfen’s house after bidding goodbye to Shen Li.      

As they left the house, Yu Mai and Lang Hui started to loudly discuss about what kind of pup that they wanted, with a bright smile on his lips, Yu Mai said,      

” Mai wants the cutest one, the one which is as cute as Mai,” said Yu Mai as he pushed Lang Hui who smiled and then said with a flattering smile, ” Aiya, Mai…if you look for a pup as cute as you then you will never get a pup, because you are the cutest!”      

Ye Liu heard the talks of the two kids and was speechless, what were discussing?! Was a pup measuring unit of cuteness? How can a human child and a pup even compare with each other? Though he was speechless, he did not say anything and let the two kids continue with their foolish talks.      nov𝔢𝔩𝔲𝗌𝒷.𝑐/o/𝓂

Shen Jin on the other hand was really curious, when he was young he once asked his mother to bring him a puppy and she scolded him very much saying that he ate too much and that if they brought a puppy then they will all starve to death, so how can his brother Li’s family afford three puppies? Were they not scared of starving? Especially when the price of grains was this high!
