Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 903: pregnant and panickedWhen Chen Mi saw the group of groundhogs smelling the piece of cloth which belonged to his mother he was speechless, he looked at Yu Dong and then at the furry little things which were lining up in front of his wife and did not say anything for a long time.          

    

" What are you doing, wife?" After a very long time, Chen Mi could not help but ask as he looked at Yu Dong who was straightening up her spine after the groundhogs were done smelling the piece of cloth which held the scent of his mother.      

He thought that Yu Dong was going to use those three puppies which she brought with the children but he did not expect her to instead hand these pieces of fabric to the groundhogs, what were they going to do after smelling the scent?    

When Yu Dong saw that Chen Mi looked a bit confused she politely smiled at him and then explained patiently, " You might not know this but groundhogs are excellent diggers, if we send a dog or an eagle, there is a chance that someone might be able to intercept the food which we packed up for mother in law, but with them we can rest in ease."      

She turned to look at the groundhogs which were lining up in front of her and then continued speaking, " Even if someone was to try and dig the ground, there is no way they will be able to intercept these beings, this way your packages will arrive at the Chen household without a problem."      

If there were any other groundhogs they would not be able to do something like this but these groundhogs were different. They were raised by her spiritual energy and thus their five senses were no longer as dull as before, not only they could work quicker but they could even smell above the ground because of this they will have no problem arriving at the Chen house.      
When Chen Mi heard Yu Dong's explanation he was surprised, he had never heard of tamed groundhogs but he knew that with Yu Dong, he could not think of anything from the normal point of view which was why he looked down at the tiny furry things and smiled politely as he crouched down and asked,      

" Can you send these packages to my mother safely?"      

He had noticed that the animals which were raised by the Yu family were a lot more humane when compared to the rest, as long as they were not dumb, they could easily understand what their masters were saying, just like a little calf and little goat, the rest of the livestock was much smarter than the ones in the village.      

Sure enough, after he finished speaking he saw the groundhogs nod. They seemed to be agreeing with him which caused Chen Mi's eyes to turn blurry with tears of gratitude.      

He was really afraid since this time the safety of his maternal family was concerned, he was afraid that if he did not do anything, his mother would really starve to death.      

Unlike him, his mother was not aware of the flood and the heavy snowfall. She was busy travelling from one town to another while making kangs for the official and thus the letters that he wrote did not reach his mother.      

By the time his mother received his letter, it was already too late.      

His maternal family had no resources stocked up and they were simply relying on the dried-up grains that were stored in their granary.      

Since Chen Mi did not wish for his mother to have a New Year which was filled with nothing but bleakness, he was really thankful to Yu Dong for coming up with this plan, at least this way he will be able to make sure that his mother and his family will have something decent to eat.      

" All right then," Chen Mi hurriedly tied the few cloth bags which he brought with him to the back of the groundhogs and then watched them dig the ground as they disappeared under the ground one by one.      

As the groundhogs disappeared, he turned to look at Yu Dong who was standing next to him and sweetly called out, " Wife~"      

Yu Dong felt goosebumps break all over her skin as she turned to look at Chen Mi who was smiling at her solicitously and narrowed her eyes as she said, " Don't even think about it…"    

Her words trailed off as Chen Mi jumped from the ground and hugged her tight as he spoke against her bosom, " You are the best."      

Oh, now that I have done what you wanted, I am the best? Yu Dong thought in her mind as she looked at the little mer who was hugging her and then scoffed, " Your love is indeed so fake, Mi."      

" How can you say something like this? I am the one who loves you the most, if you don't believe me, come with me to the bedroom," Chen Mi shyly spoke to Yu Dong whose eyebrows twitched as she pushed him away and snapped,      

" Get away from me! Do you think that I will forgive you just like that?" With that, she turned around and walked away.    

" I will cook your favourite twice-cooked pork!" Chen Mi followed Yu Dong inside as he tried to coax her.      

….    

Three days passed by in a blink, since the New Year was just around the corner, the villagers all started to tie up red celebratory fabric outside their houses while Second Aunt Yu being one of the educated women wrote a few couplets for the villagers as well.    

If this was before she would not have bothered with the villagers upon whom she looked down but after what happened during the flood followed by Qiu Bai, she had to act solicitous with the villagers, she knew that even if she did not like the villagers who were not as educated and elegant as her, she could no longer act disdainful towards them anymore.
