Chapter 858: Groundhog service —-2
——————–Yu Dong was not being cold towards Chen Mi but she was tired of his temper for the time being, if the other person was willing to listen she would have tried to explain but before she could say anything he will start crying each time making her feel bad—— she wished she could help Mother Chen but if she did not make an example out of herself, who will listen to her?
Thus, even though she wanted to coax Chen Mi, she did not do so and hardened her heart before ignoring him as she changed her clothes and then left the house.
Inside his room, Chen Mi of course heard the small conversation that took place between Shen Li and Yu Dong, he knew that he was in the wrong but the person who was in danger of getting starved to death was his mother, how can he turn a blind eye to eat while eating meat and fine rice?
He wanted to back down but every time he saw Yu Dong looking at him as if he was acting insensible his temper would flare up now they were at a Cold War and he did not know how to rein in his temper anymore.
” Bun Bun, do you also think that Daddy is being unreasonable?” Chen Mi asked his son who looked at him with a bewildered look on his face. ” You know I am always willing to bend according to your mother’s wishes but this time she is too much, your grandmother is relying on dried biscuits and tree bark, what can she even hunt in this weather? If your grandmother dies of starvation tell me how will I face her?” nov𝐄𝓵𝔲𝑠𝑏/𝚌/o\𝗆
Little Bun had no idea what his father was saying, he only knew how to babble a few things when he saw that his father was crying in order to comfort him.
Shen Li of course heard Chen Mi’s cries but he ignored him, he was not the only one who suffering! A few days ago he found out that Shen Jin was sick since his mother came to ask for money again but he deliberately turned a blind eye to everything even when he was called heartless, he did not send any help. Was he not worried? Was his heart not in pain? But sometimes people have to learn how to be selfish!
They were not in a position where they could make a mistake, if they were to do anything wrong much less make a wrong move —— the entire village can be implicated!
With a thud, Shen Li chopped the neck of the chicken which was lying on the chopping board scaring Ye Liu and Fang Chi so much that they scrambled close to each other, these days the atmosphere at home was not as good as before, they could only keep mum and act like they were mute, in case they were to say a wrong thing they will end up getting the wrath of two bombs!
The little calf who was playing with Bo Bo also shivered when he saw the threatening look on Shen Li’s face and hid behind Ye Liu, these days he was eating and drinking well which was why its vitality was getting better and better, now it could guard the house like the three dogs and the goat which was Yu Mai’s partner.
The two little things were not scared of burly thieves and thugs but when they saw the usually gentle Shen Li chopping the chicken as if he was chopping someone else head, they could not help but act like an ostrich.
….
Yu Dong did not think of the matters of home when she was out hunting, because the winters were harsh, there were no animals at the border of the mountain. They could only dive deeper into the mountains where she could not afford to lose focus instead she turned to look at Aunt Wang and then pointed at the tree which seemed to be brimming with vitality and then said, ” Dig a pit there, make sure to sharpen the edge of the spears which you will be putting inside, I will go and prepare the bait.”
As she spoke she turned around and placed the basket which she was carrying on her back and then took out a piece of meat which was rubbed with spiritual water and then rubbed a few herbs on it as well before turning to look at the ten and so women working in a hurry to dig a pit.
It did not take them more than fifteen minutes to dig a pit, while they were placing the spears, Aunt Wang who finished digging walked over to Yu Dong while wiping her sweat and then asked, ” Is Mi still angry?”
She had heard the quarrel which shook the entire village a few days ago, it was the first time she had seen Yu Dong angry at her husband which was why she still could not forget the sight.
” He is just being childish,” After the night she spent with Shen Li, the snow only became more and more heavier, she wanted to help her in laws but the snow at the Ruins village was heavier than in her own village, she could not travel there and then the snow storm became more dangerous in their own village causing everything to be put at a halt.
Before the paths were blocked, Chen Mi’s mother sent a letter saying that she was fine trying to amend the letter which was sent to their house with a plea of help. Mother Chen was afraid that Chen Mi will make things difficult for Yu Dong by asking her to come and help her —— even so, she tried to rein in the temper of her son, but the latter did not wish to rein in anything!
He was acting like a teen who was in his rebellious phase!
Though he was one but he was still a father where was his maturity?
What was more even the postwoman who brought the letter could not go back home, she was living with Wu Junfen while worrying about her pregnant husband—— even that woman could not go back home, how can she help her in-laws?
Sprout a pair of wings and fly?
Just as Yu Dong was muttering about Chen Mi being unreasonable there was a scream and she turned to look at the women who were surrounding a furry creature.
Wait …was this not a groundhog?
