Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 339 What will they do?　　Yu Dong left to cook something for Fang Chi, while the rest awkwardly sat next to each other. Though everyone was happy for Fang Chi, they all had their own troubles to worry about. Shen Li and Ye Liu couldn't help but be worried about themselves, even though they were happy about the news addition to their family, the fact that their belly didn't have any news even after so many years of marriage, was enough to make them worried.

They have been married to Yu Dong for so many years, in fact, Shen Li got married to her at a young age and the two of them would soon step into their seventh year of marriage, so why was it that he was still not pregnant? In the earlier years, he used to blame it on Yu Dong's alcoholism but now whom he was going to blame? Yu Dong wasn't just healthy, she was now the fittest woman in the village, tall, lean and good looking. 

He couldn't even count the mers who secretly peep at his wife when she went out of the house for work on his two hands with his two feet combined the number of mers was that big and so was the threat that he faced every day. Just by looking at how in demand Yu Dong was, he should have gotten pregnant months ago but for some reason even after spending so many nights together with Yu Dong, he was still empty-handed. 

Ye Liu was in a similar situation, he has been married to Yu Dong for more than four years, soon these four years will turn into five and yet there was no news from his womb? Once he could understand but he has been sleeping with Yu Dong a lot more now, even though he wasn't the one to reach out and hold her, for the sake of fairness Yu Dong spent a night each with her husbands in a single week and the remaining two days were left for the kids. 

This month he slept with Yu Dong four times—— even if sleeping with his wife once didn't help, after sleeping four times, something should have happened right? And it wasn't like the situation of their family was similar to as before, now they could eat three meals a day and his health was no longer the same as before, so he should have gotten pregnant by now, right? So, why wasn't he?

Even the usually chattering Xiao Bai was silent today, he was sitting on a wooden chair with a comfortable pillow behind him. He swore that he was really overjoyed for Fang Chi and couldn't be happier if he wanted to but underneath these emotions, there was an undercurrent of unhappiness. 

Though he didn't have any reasons he was still upset with what happened right now, he shouldn't right? Fang Chi was his friend, like a brother from another daddy. So, why was it that he had this itch in his hand to punch Yu Dong in her f*cking face? My logic was he shouldn't be upset at either of them but he was, and he wasn't even angry at Fang Chi but Yu Dong, which he found really weird.

Why was he angry at her? She didn't even do anything to him!

As for Fang Chi, he too was feeling a bit awkward as to why? He was a mer too and could understand how Shen Li and Ye Liu were feeling at the moment, if someone else was in their place, he would have given him a hard time already. After all, Shen Li was Yu Dong's official husband if he didn't get pregnant then there would be no official heir of the Yu family, the same could be said for Ye Liu who was the second official husband, if these two couldn't get pregnant then Yu Dong have to adopt one of his or Chen Mi's child and let them be named under Shen Li and Ye Liu if she wanted an official heir to her family. 

Because only the first two mers were given the official position as a woman's husbands. The others can only be marked under the family tree but they wouldn't be taken as the official—— in short, he and Chen Mi were Yu Dong's concubines or bedmates though they were still given the title of her husbands but if she were to take their children as her heir, the officials wouldn't allow her to do that unless Shen Li or Ye Liu takes their children under their name.

And even if they do that, the embarrassment that they have to face would be one that they will never be able to forget about what kind of mers couldn't give birth to a child for their wife? This was their responsibility, the sole purpose of their existence in this world, if they were to fail even in this then what good they will do by staying alive? 

These were of course not his thoughts, these were the thoughts of the society who would drown the two of them in spit if they remained childless. 

He still remembers the one time when a mer couldn't give birth to his wife's child even after years of marriage, he was scolded not only by his family but he was even taunted by the villagers in the end he jumped in the well of his house and ended his life, only after his death, did his family found out that the mer was, in fact, pregnant but because of a misdiagnosis his life ended with such an unfortunate note. 

Given how and what kind of pressure they were feeling, he could understand how hard it was for them to smile while hiding their pain. So, instead of saying anything, he gave them their space. 

Chen Mi was of the same thoughts, though he would happily let his brother Li and brother Liu adopt his future daughter or son which would only humiliate them even further. 

The silence was suffocating, especially for Shen Li and Ye Liu whose eyes kept flickering as anxiety rose and countless thoughts came to their head, causing their heart to feel stuffed with something hard. 

If something really was wrong with them, then what were they going to do?
