Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 821: Uncle not brotherShen Jin did not understand what Ye Liu was trying to say but he did understand that he was not supposed to casually mention marriage talks like this which was he nodded after half understanding the matter and promised, " I will not mention marrying someone so casually brother Liu."?? ????????????????
????????

When Ye Liu heard Shen Jin's words, he heaved a sigh of relief but at the same time, he couldn't help but be slightly annoyed with Mother Shen. No matter how much she wanted to spend her life drinking and in leisure, she could have at least taught Shen Jin something so simple as this??? as for Ning Yu, though he was Shen Jin's father and he should have taught Shen Jin about such things, Ye Liu understood that the reason Ning Yu never said a word about these things because he, himself was not sure when his son will be sold off like a good which was made to be sold. ????????
Thus, teaching him things like marriage will only bring Shen Jin pain in case he was sold off. Shen Li was lucky that he got to marry Yu Dong but most mers who were sold off ended up becoming either bed servants or tavern workers. ????????

" That is right, from now on do not casually mention that you are going to marry this woman or that, only say such things when you like someone," Ye Liu taught Shen Jin though he did not know what Shen Li was thinking, but he knew that even if Shen Li could not bring his father with him, he wanted to take the kids away which was why Ye Liu thought that it was all right for him to say such things. ????????

Shen Jin had never heard such a thing before, his mother always said to him that she will marry him off to the one who bought him for the highest price, she had never once mentioned like or anything, thus when Ye Liu said that he should marry someone he liked, Shen Jin was a bit confused. ????????

Like? What was that??? ????????

However, soon that question ended up getting forgotten because they arrived at the Wu house.?? ????????

Yue Hua was cleaning the yard with his daughter when he saw Ye Liu and the kids, he placed the broom next to the chicken coop and then went to greet Ye Liu and the kids, " You all are here? Little Yue come and greet your Uncle Liu and Uncle Mai."?? ????????

Wu Junfen's daughter was called Wu Ruyue and her nickname was Little Yue, she was a bubbly girl with sharp eyes like her mother and face which looked a bit like her daddy. When she heard her father's call, Wu Ruyue left the sword which her mother brought for her from the market behind and then rushed over to her daddy where she said in a childish voice, " Daddy, Brother Mai is so young, how can he be an uncle? He is just like little Yue! Look our heights are the same." As if to emphasise her point she stood next to Yu Mai. ????????

Because Yu Mai was a mer, his height grew slower than men as for Wu Ruyue, she was a woman and her growth rate despite being slower than men, was faster when compared to Yu Mai. Thus, she was easily the taller one of the two.?? ????????

When Yue Hua heard his daughter's words he did not know what to say to her, he tried to teach her about the generational gap but Wu Ruyue was too young to understand it. She did not understand that Yu Mai was Yu Dong's brother who was around the same age as Wu Junfen, his wife and Wu Ruyue's mother, by this relation alone Yu Mai was a generation higher than Wu Ruyue.?? ????????

She should be calling him uncle but maybe it was because Yu Mai was the shorter one among the two, Wu Ruyue absolutely refused to call him uncle.?? ????????

" Little Yue, I have told you that Uncle Mai is Aunt Dong's brother, if you call Aunt Dong, your aunt then of course you will have to call her brother your uncle as well no matter what height!" Yue Hua tried to teach his daughter again only to be slapped in his face again as his daughter opened her mouth and very eloquently retorted, ????????

" But Aunt Dong is so much taller than Little Rue, if Brother Mai gets that tall then I will call him uncle as well."?? ????????

There was no winning with this girl! Yue Hua thought in his head as he looked at his daughter exasperatedly. If they go by her logic, Yu Mai will stay brother Mai for the rest of his life because there was no way a mer will grow bigger than a woman. Though he might grow almost as tall as Yu Dong but he might not surpass her?????? in fact it would be better if he did not grow as tall as Yu Dong.?? ????????

Yue Hua wanted to scold his daughter but he was stopped by Ye Liu who said, "It is all right, they are still young and Littke Yue does not understand the concept of generation. I am sure she will understand once she grows up and Mai does not mind either, do you, Mai?" He looked down and asked his brother-in-law.?? ????????

Yu Mai was not clear on many things but after drinking spiritual water, his mind was clearing up a bit, when he heard Ye Liu's question he knew that his brother-in-law was asking him about his opinion and shook his head as he replied politely, " Mai does not mind, Little Yue is young and I am the older one, so of course I have to be understanding." He then turned to look at Yue Hua and then said in a polite tone, " You do not have to mind me, Brother Fen as long as little Yue wants to play with me, I am willing to be her brother."?? ????????
