古代闺秀被强高H

Chapter 297 Beautiful sister.

Lang cleared her throat as she looked at her husband seeing that he was indeed worried, she walked over to him and patted his shoulder. "It\'s alright, Ruru is smart. She knows what she should and shouldn\'t do, you are just getting worried for no reason."

Zhu Qian looked at his daughter who was still looking gloomy as she reluctantly looked in the direction in which Yu Mai has left and rubbed the knot of worry in his chest. He hoped that he was really just overthinking, and nothing out of the bound will happen in the future.

Yu Mai returned to the dining room and climbed up his sister like she was a pole. Yu Dong was used to his antics and let him do what he was doing before taking him in his arms. " So, what happened? Sister Ru didn\'t come with you?"

" No, she has to go to her grandmother\'s house," said Yu Mai as he snuggled in his sister\'s embrace. Ah, to be living a good life.

Only then did Yu Dong remember that Lang has indeed asked for a day holiday from her—— saying that she needed to get her son back from his in-laws\' house now that her family was settled down. Back then Yu Dong agreed to give Lang a holiday. It looks like Lang was waiting for her wedding ceremonies to finish before leaving the village. " I see, then it\'s a shame."

Shen Li who was picking up the dirty dishes and passing them to Chen Mi who was standing in the kitchen with his gear to wash dishes all tied up, looked at Yu Dong and asked, " Wife, what do you mean by that? Was there something important you wanted Lang Ru and Mai to do?"

"Yeah." Yu Dong settled Yu Mai on the cushioned chair as she could no longer carry him around for a long period of time. She patted the pouty looking Yu Mai\'s head as she continued. "It\'s like this, the strawberries in the fields have all ripened, I wanted a few kids to go and harvest them."

Her reputation with the villagers wasn\'t good, even if she tried to call a few adults to help her out most probably only a few might arrive. There was also the matter of the rumours that Qiu Bai and the Old man Yu has been spreading calling her unfilial and whatnot for egging her grandmother to lock the two of them in the house on the day of the wedding.

Though she invited Grandma Yu, her step-grandfather Old man Yu has been crying about how she was rude to him by not asking him to come to the wedding. Even though Yu Dong didn\'t mind their little antics, the villagers did mind them. In their view, she was being unfilial by not inviting her grandfather and uncle in law.

While she was returning after checking her farmlands she picked on the heated discussion that the villagers were having while they furtively pointed at her when they thought that she wasn\'t looking.

Now, with her reputation once again plummeting, she might not be able to hire the villagers and even if she tried to hire a few, many won\'t come because of the fear of being tagged unfilial as well.

But that wasn\'t the case with kids, as long as she paid them the same wage as adults, the villagers will turn a blind eye to what she was asking their kids to do, after all, it was long established that the lure of money was great and even someone was to question the parents of the kids they can always say that it was something that the kids were doing on their own, it has nothing to do with them.

Though she has already thought it through, she couldn\'t help but be secretly annoyed by those annoying duo in the old Yu family. Seriously, did they want to gobble the wedding feast so much that they decided to sort trouble with her just because they didn\'t get their way?

" Looks like I have to put a hold on the harvest until Lang returns——"

" I can help you with it auntie Yu." said a childish voice, a bit startled, Yu Dong turned around and looked at Chu Chang who has just arrived with his daughter Mu Ran who was standing beside him. Chu Chang was a bit embarrassed as he waddled over to her and placed the bowl of boiled eggs and a piece of pork on the dining table. " My daughter has been going on and on about, how she wants to eat those strawberries that she ate at your house. Her aunts did try to get their hands on these fruits but they couldn\'t find a batch that was as good as yours and Ran Ran was the most upset with it." Then he looked at Yu Dong with a really hesitant expression as he opened his mouth with great difficulty and asked, " Can I buy a few strawberries from you? I am willing to pay the market price you have set, it\'s just that I want Ran Ran to stop crying for that straw——"

" UWAAA!" Chu Chang was still going on about Mu Ran and her obsession with the sweet strawberries but then he was interrupted by Little bun\'s loud cry as the latter looked at Mu Ran with shiny eyes.
