Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 940: Could only dream ——2" I will do as you said, Miss Yu," though Lang did not understand why Yu Dong wanted sugar, she thought of the piles of strawberries that they harvested before the flood and realised that most probably Yu Dong wanted to deal with those piled-up fruits.          

    

Yu Dong nodded and then approached the table where everyone was surrounding the big bowls which had fish meatballs and pork meatballs sitting inside them separately. She looked at the moistened lips of the young ones and kindly said, " What are you waiting for? Say your prayers to God and then start eating."      

Since Yu Dong was raising a bunch of bear cubs she wanted to make sure that they all will grow up with decent manners. Thus, she tried to instil as many good habits in them as possible.      
Immediately, all the kids clasped their hands and then bowed their heads even a little bun followed suit as he babbled a small prayer. Once everyone was done, it did not take long for them to attack the pearl meatballs.      

Yu Dong smiled when she watched her family eat who were full of praise for her new dishes and then said, " This is not all, you all are yet to eat the real deal." She then went to the kitchen where she took out the cheese which she had kept aside and then sprinkled it generously on the half-steamed pearl meat balls before picking them up and taking them to the mud oven where she placed them inside and left them to bake.      

It did not take long for a milky scent to waft out of the oven, as Yu Dong took out the meatballs and nodded in satisfaction before bringing them to the table.      

She took a seat and then picked up her chopsticks to take a bite of the cheesy meatballs but the second, she reached out for the small delightful bites, she realised that she had to fight her way inside the bowl as the rest of the family attacked on the bowl the second it was set down.      

" There is enough portion for everyone, enough to fill your bellies. So slow down a little and stop getting your tongues burned," she told them while watching Chen Mi taking big bites of the meatballs which were dripping with melting cheese and then watched him say, " Wife, I am so glad that I got to marry you. I never thought that I could eat anything better than I usually was but now that I have eaten these cheese pearl meatballs, I have to say that I spoke too soon! It's too delicious!"     

Ye Liu on the other hand calmly placed a few meatballs in his bowl. He was a slow eater, if he was to compete with Chen Mi and the children's army then he was worried that he will eat nothing but dew and the bamboo shoots growing behind their house. Thus, he purposely made a mountain of pearl meatballs in his bowl and made the bowl his own territory no one was allowed to snatch it from him.      

Even Fang Chi and Shen Li who were a bit more restrained than others ate in a hurry as they were afraid that the meal would finish without them getting a chance to eat.     

Yu Dong watched her family nibble without even raising their heads from the bowls which they were holding in their hands and was simply speechless. She did not know what to say! Why were they all acting like they have never eaten anything good? But even so, she felt a deep satisfaction as she watched them eat.     

" Sigh, I don't think I will ever be able to go back home after eating the meals at your house," Yun Xuan sighed as he took a bite of the pearl meatballs. " It makes all my worries go away, I wish I can stay at your house forever."      

" No, please go back to your house," Yu Dong spoke through gritted teeth and received a reproachful look from Shen Li who asked her not to be rude to their guests. Thus even though Yu Dong did not even look at Yun Xuan smiled at the old sly mer and then added, " I meant that your wife might be waiting for you."      

" Hmm, I am thinking of settling in this place after everything is over," Yun Xuan sighed as he remembered all those years that he had spent on the battlefield. " I mean I am way past the age where one retires."      

His only response was a shocked and terrified look from Yu Dong which only further fuelled his desire to move to this village. Maybe once the heir to the throne was determined, he will truly ask Magistrate Li to give him a plot of land in this village.      

On the other hand, Grandma Yu had her own worries, she turned to look at Yu Dong and with resentment slowly rising in her heart she said, " Dong Dong, why don't I move out of the house? Though I hate to say this but maybe Old Master Tong is doing this because he wished to get hold of all these comforts which I live with just because I am with you."      

Yu Dong thought of the green light which she had released once she got back home and then shook her head before she craftily smiled and replied, " Grandmother, you don't have to worry. Though Old Master Tong is sneaky and his plan is indeed foolproof but I am not a fool who will allow him to pull me along by my nose. The marriage that he wishes to have …. He will never have it! Just wait till midnight and see what happens!"     

...     

On the other side, Old Master Tong was already thinking of his wonderful life. He knew that with his wife and him found in the same bed this matter will not die down easily.      

Not only will Old Madam Tong have to marry him but even Yu Dong and Yu Tong would have to be filial to him. Once that happens, his pockets will be full!      

He was so lost in his thoughts that he did not even see the green light which shot straight at his head.
