Old Man Tong was not the only one who was scheming at the moment, Shen Hanxing who had been keeping eye on the big river village was also scheming at this very moment. Ever since she found out that Yu Dong could use money like she was spilling water on the ground, she would come to the Big River village and then keep an eye on Yu Dong every day.
In fact, Shen Hanxing did not want to believe that a thug like Yu Dong could become so rich but after following Yu Dong for the past few days, she realised that Yu Dong was indeed not only rich, she was rather influential in the village as well and now to top it all she even became the owner of this village!
" That dumb mer, what is he even doing?" Shen Hanxing cursed her brother, Shen Li while hiding behind the old tree as she heard the discussion of the villagers. She wished she could go and ask the villager what was the relationship between Shen Li and Yu Dong but Shen Hanxing still has not forgotten how she was chased out of this village in nothing but his underclothes.
Even if it had been many years there was a chance that the villagers might still remember her since many women who were laughing at her back then were standing in the crowd. If they remembered her then they might not tell her the truth!
Shen Hanxing bit her lips as she tried to reel in the information that she received just now and then turned to leave the village, she needed to tell this to her mother. With Yu Dong's power and fame now, she could easily make them a manor to live in! Just look at that house where she lived now!
There was a backyard as well as a front yard even though she did not go inside just now, Shen Hanxing heard the sounds of goats coming from the inside!
Yu Dong this woman was not only raising goats but she was also raising three to four of them and from what she heard it seemed that those goats were being raised just for that stupid and useless mer son whom the third husband gave birth to!
" What a waste!" Shen Hanxing was not the one who bought the goats but as the sister-in-law and the sister of the official husband, she had long thought of Yu Dong's money as her own. After all, she was the sister of the official husband, why will she not be upset when she found out that Yu Dong was wasting her hard-earned money on a mer concubine who gave birth to a mer son?
" Even that Shen Li is a useless c*nt!" Shen Hanxing did not hold back in cursing Shen Li as she turned to leave after taking one last glance at the house where Yu Dong lived. " He is the official husband but he is allowing the concubines to dance on top of his head, even just now instead of following his wife, he allowed a prostitute who was bought from the tavern and a concubine to follow his wife! He really…. No, I have to tell Mother and set that mer, right? Just how long will that mer keep acting like an idiot?"
Shen Hanxing did not waste any time in returning to the town where she rushed to the small tent where she and her mother were living. When she arrived at the tent, she saw her mother sleeping and hurried to wake her up, " Mother, wake up! This is not the time for you to sleep! You need to get up now!"
Mother Shen was having a dream that was full of luxurious comfort and was rather upset when she was woken up by her daughter. She slapped her daughter on the arm with just the right force and then said, " What are you doing? Can you not see that I was sleeping?"
" Mother, do you think this is the time to sleep ?" Shen Hanxing was really anxious, it was as if she was even a second late then Yu Dong might name her property after the mer concubines and kick Shen Li that wooden guy out of her house!
" Yu Dong has been allocated the big river village that is to say that she is now the owner of the entire village!" Shen Hanxing spoke hurriedly and Mother Shen who was in a daze because of all the alcohol that she drank immediately sat up straight and asked, " What did you say?"
" I said that Yu Dong has been appointed as the owner of an entire village, do you know what it means? It means that she can get us land and house for free!" Shen Hanxing shook her mother such that the latter was completely awake but then her excitement was doused by Ning Yu who snickered and then said, " You sure have a far sought imagination, Hanxin. Your brother is he favoured? If so then we can go to the village to demand a piece of land…" Ning Yu turned to look at Shen Hanxing and added, " Has he given a son or daughter to Yu Dong? Or is he even pregnant?"
Shi Xi glanced at his brother and then took his daughters and mer son away with him, he even asked Ning Yu's son to follow him such that they will not see the ugliness of their family. It was already bad enough that they had Shen Hanxing this rotten apple, another one was not needed!
At his questioning, Madam Shen turned to look at Shen Hanxing who pursed his lips and shook her head as she replied, " No he hasn't, I asked the villagers, it seems that Shen Li has not once gotten pregnant!"
Because the villagers did not know Shen Hanxing, they did not tell her much. When Shen Hanxing asked about Shen Li having a child they all sympathetically shook their heads before moving on which told Shen Hanxing that her brother never got pregnant.
" Hah, and you still think that wooden block will be able to get us land? In your dreams," Ning Yu harshly spoke as he finished washing the bowls and then got up. " It would be fortunate if we are not asked to pay for his barren womb!"
