Chapter 584: Im here to help you" Fine, let's take a look at the losses that we have suffered," Wu Junfen agreed as she turned to look at the fields that belonged to her family and when she saw that half of her crops were gone, her heart couldn't help but twist. This was going to be the hardest time that she and her family have to face and yet her crops were already ruined and even if half of it was left behind, she knew that these crops could not be sold at most she will be able to eat them with her family.
As for Yu Dong, she turned to look at the fields that were still standing and clicked her tongue. " You seemed to be doing quite well."
" What are you talking about?" Yu Dong turned to look at her aunt with a surprised look on her face as she said, " I lost more than half of my crops how in the world do I seem to be doing well to you?" She paused and then sighed heavily. " I should have tried to ignore the suspicion of the villagers, that way I could have saved my entire fields, now I feel rather upset."
Wu Junfen: "…." This brat was showing off in front of her wasn't she?
The Wu family was a quintessential small family when it came to farming, they did have fields in their possession but hardly any one of them knew how to farm which was why they did not have many earnings with the vegetables and rice they grew who would have thought that one day she would regret not having a green finger?
If she was half as talented as Yu Dong when it came to agriculture then she would not have to be taunted like this by her granddaughter.
" Well, there is nothing that you can do about it," Wu Junfen turned to walk towards the rice fields that were doing better than the vegetable field but still Wu's family suffered quite a lot of heavy damage as for Yu Dong.
Her fields were still much better than hers! So angry!
" Why did you not let these fields be washed away as well?" Wu Junfen asked as she looked at her granddaughter, even though she understood that Yu Dong was a woman who thought about her advantages a bit more than others but she never thought that the woman was a fool.
" Why will I let them washed away?" Yu Dong rolled her sleeves and then walked over to the fields that were yet to be harvested and then started taking care of the rice that she threw brazenly into her space. If not for this field being not ready for harvesting, she would have harvested them like the plants of the strawberries and blueberries that were washed away as well.
She looked at her grandmother and then smirked, " This is all money, how can I let it go?"
She was just experimenting when she tried to instil her spiritual energy in these crops she did not expect that they will be able to survive the flood but now that she was looking at the crops that not only grew with the help of her spiritual energy but even sucked the energy of the flood water, Yu Dong was internally rather happy.
While she was happy, she was also rather worried. Thankfully, she busied the villagers with something else and came here or else they would have definitely asked a number of questions and even now Yu Dong did not know how she would have answered those questions.
" You are such a money grubber," muttered Wu Junfen reproachfully but she still helped Yu Dong to harvest the crops, she did not want the villagers to find out about Yu Dong's powers either. After all, such a disaster happened there was no way such fragile crops would have survived but still, Yu Dong's crops managed to make their way out of this surely others would get rather suspicious if they were to see it.
On one hand, Yu Dong and Wu Junfen were harvesting vegetables on the other hand Fang Chi was sulking in his bedroom. It wasn't that he was a jealous mer but it has been over a week and yet Yu Dong has not once stepped in his bedroom, she would go to Chen Mi's, and Ye Liu and even spent almost a week at Shen Li's but not once did she come to his room to spend the night with him.
Now that he has gotten pregnant and his belly was getting bigger with a bunch of flaws appearing on his body, he couldn't help but feel like he seemed to have lost the affection that he had in Yu Dong's heart.
"Am I really that ugly now?" Fang Chi has been insecure about his appearance for a long time, even though Yu Dong has made him regain his confidence back, something about the vulnerability that he felt at the moment was poking at the back of his head causing Fang Chi to feel rather upset at the changes that were happening in his body.
He looked at his figure in the mirror and then when his reflection glared back at him, Fang Chi waddled left to right before his face drooped. " I do look like an ugly weasel stealing an egg."
" Well, well it looks like that someone is not happy!" Fang Chi turned to look at Chen Mi who was standing at the door with a cup of tonic in his hands, even though his pregnancy was more than secure and safe, Yu Dong still sent him a bunch of bitter tonics to stabilise his pregnancy. And nowadays seeing how much she cared for the child but would not even look at him, Fang Chi was starting to feel edgy.
" Brother Mi, what are you doing here?" Fang Chi asked as he looked at Chen Mi who walked inside the room and set the cup of tonic down on the table before turning to look at Fang Chi with a grin. " What else I am here to help you gain what you have lost!"
