967 I am a mer and not a toy Yu Le did not have the slightest bit of idea about what was going on in the head of his daughter. He arrived at his fields that were no longer covered in thick snow, with days turning into weeks and weeks turning into months, spring was soon going to arrive in their village. Thus, many villagers could be seen preparing their fields but Yu Dong asked them to hold the sowing of the seeds till summer.
No one knew why Yu Dong was not allowing them to sow the seeds but no one said anything as they were given another job by Yu Dong.
And that was the construction of greenhouses in their village, according to Yu Dong, these buildings can be used to grow vegetables and fruits all year round which was why many villagers took loans from Yu Dong and were now focusing on making greenhouses around their fields in hope that they will be able to grow vegetables and fruits for an entire year without worrying about their crops wilting.
The reason Yu Dong asked the villagers to build greenhouses was because she wanted to make sure that their village will still be able to earn a stable income when the locusts swarmed over to other villages.
With their fields covered with a shed which would not only protect it from wind and rain but also locust plague, they will have nothing to worry about!
Though Yu Dong was upset with the fact that she could no longer continue her mushroom cultivating plan for the time being, she wasn't in a hurry either. With the locust plague affecting most of the villages, it was more important to save her own village first before thinking of making more money!
Yu Le wanted to take the loan and build a greenhouse as well but he was the only one who worked on his field and thus did not have enough man force to clean up the weeds and the surrounding area. He also needed to scatter ash and fertilizer on the land before he could even lay down the foundation of the greenhouse.
" I hope that I will be able to clean at least half of the field today," Yu Le muttered to no one in particular, his gaze falling on the field covered with weeds and melting snow before he swung his hoe and then started cleaning the melting snow and threw it in the ditch next to his fields.
But just as he was going to swing his hoe for another time he saw a woman rushing towards him with a nervous look on her face.
His expression changed when he realized that the woman was none other than Li Sangyu—— what is she doing here? Yu Le thought with a frown on his face but then shook his head and turned his back on Li Sangyu, they were now separate there was no need for him to pay attention to his ex-wife.
However, just because he was not willing to pay attention to Li Sangyu, it did not mean that she would not come looking for him. When Li Sangyu saw that Yu Le was no longer willing to look at her and was turning his back on her, she panicked and rushed towards him before she started to speak with a panicked and fearful expression, " Ah Le, I am sorry... I am really sorry for hurting you and Yuya. Please forgive me and come back home with me. Stop getting angry at me please...please...please come back!"
When Yu Le was with her, she did not understand his worth but now that he was no longer taking care of her Li Sangyu could not even think of where to start her day anymore.
To be honest, Li Sangyu thought that she was also innocent. Yu Le never complained to her and never told her what Min Yan did to him, while Min Yan, on the other hand, would cry even for the smallest grievances in front of her.
As the saying goes the squeakiest wheel got the oil and thus Li Sangyu only paid attention to Min Yan and not Yu Le.
Now that she was living with Min Yan alone, she knew that he was not what he pretended to be, at least he was nowhere as good as Yu Le!
If she had known that Yu Le was much better than Min Yan, Li Sangyu would have never allowed Yu Le to leave her!
When Yu Le saw Li Sangyu beg in front of her, he chuckled softly and then turned to look at the woman before saying, " Miss, I believe that you are saying these words to the wrong mer. We are no longer together, so why does it matter whether I am angry with you or not?"
Li Sangyu wanted to cry but she couldn't bring herself to as her father told her that a woman never cried in front of a mer. " Ah Le, I ...I know that I was wrong. Please come back with me, I can't live without you and Yuya. Earlier I was a fool, if you want then you can slap me, hit me like I did to you if you want but come back with me, please. I am waiting for you to return. I mean I will wait until you forgive me," she changed her words when she saw that Yu Le's face was turning colder by the minute.
As she spoke she reached out her hand to hold Yu Le's but the latter pulled his hand back coldly.
Yu Le did not care and simply looked at Li Sangyu before continuing, " You can wait for all eternity. I don't care! Plus, I m sure you are not waiting for me, you are waiting for that servile mer who will take care of your needs and even please you when you are upset! Help me tell Min Yan this since he worked so hard to send me away after torturing me and my daughter to the point that we went crazy, he should now pay more attention to you such that you will not come looking for me!"
