Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1132 : The promise that I made

Yu Dong gave a nod to Old Master He before walking past him, after the fierce battle that took place at the village that belonged to Hawk Eye, she was rather tired and hungry as she hadn't eaten anything since the morning. The only good thing was that the situation in the village was not as bad as she thought it was, it was enough to take a load off her chest.

Chen Mi and Fang Chi started to gather some dry firewood to start cooking while Ye Liu broke a few eggs to start making omelettes for dinner.

As for the rest of the mercenaries they only handed them rice and dry goods, they did not want to spoil these people who tried to kill them just a few hours ago. But at the same time as they were useful, they could not kill them either by starving them.

" Your wife might never come back, what are your plans now?" Yu Dong sat down on the floor on a soft pillow and then turned to look at Lu Huo who was playing with the children of the mers who left their kids behind as they were busy working in the main house's kitchen.

When Lu Huo heard that Lin Yiyi might not be coming back, he paused but the sadness he was waiting to creep inside his heart did not come, in fact, he felt relieved. He turned to look at Yu Dong and asked, " What about my in-laws?"

" I am afraid they were eaten by the wild animals in the mountains," Yu Dong replied honestly without holding back. She was not surprised upon seeing how brutally the Lin family was killed as they were the stupid ones to climb up the mountains in such a situation.

With the heat getting worse than before, it was not even a surprise that the animals residing in the deep areas of the forest were coming down. Only fools would think of heading inside the mountains at night and that too without any special protection.

Lu Huo stiffened upon hearing Yu Dong's response. Though he hated the Lin family he did not want to see them dead, he looked at Yu Dong and then said with a slight frown, " Are you sure that the ones who were killed were the Lin family?"

Yu Dong did not answer instead she took out a small gold pendant that was in the hands of the mer when he died. She handed it to Lu Huo and asked, " Does this belong to your father-in-law?"

" Yes…it does," after seeing the gold pendant there were no doubts left in Lu Huo's head after all his father-in-law loved this pendant. He simply adored it to the point that he would not let it go even when he was asleep, the fact that this golden pendant was in the hands of Yu Dong, it could only mean one thing and that was—— his father-in-law was indeed dead.

" Then there is no point in questioning whether he was the one who died," Yu Dong arched her back and then lay down on the floor lazily. Upon seeing her lazing around like this Xiao Hua who was free at that moment kicked her on the shin.

With his hands on his hips, he said, " What are you rolling around on the ground for? Did you get injured today? Don't forget that you were on the verge of dying last night if not for the fact that you were lucky you will be dead by now." He harrumphed.

Yu Dong waved her hand and then stated, " I am fine. I did not pull on my wounds." She then patted the ground next to her and then asked Xiao Hua to sit down.

When Xiao Hua saw her actions, he was a bit confused but he still sat down on the spot where Yu Dong was patting. " Whats the matter?" He asked.

Yu Dong did not reply instead she rummaged in her space and then took out a hairpin that had rubies attached to its tassels. She showed it to Xiao Hua whose eyes were wide in disbelief, " This is the hairpin that your daddy sold off right?"

" This…where did you get it?" Xiao Hua took the hairpin from Yu Dong with his eyes wide in surprise. This hairpin was indeed something that his Daddy sold off when his mother hit rock bottom when she was running the tavern business but they could never redeem it.

As his daddy was really protective of him and thought that no woman would be worthy enough to marry him, he jokingly added the clause that he wanted this ruby hairpin back but even Xiao Hua did not have any hope to get it back.

In fact, he thought that as long as Yu Dong worked hard to get this hairpin which she did, he would ask her to stop looking for it. Never did he think that she would be able to find it!

" You should thank Mi for this. He was able to draw the hairpin really well which helped me in narrowing down the gap," explained Yu Dong. She then paused and added, "Mistress Song helped me a little as well."

Finding the hairpin was indeed not an easy task but when Yu Dong announced that she was going to offer three hundred taels for this hairpin which was only a hundred taels or so, more than just a few people came with the information including the seller who swore that she had no idea where this hairpin went.

But of course, she had to suffer a loss as the buyer of this hairpin refused to sell it at three hundred taels after finding out its importance. The two of them quibbled for a long time before that old mer sold it for four hundred taels.

When Xiao Hua heard the entire matter, his eyes could not help but turn red as he pinched Yu Dong. He said, " Why did you have to waste so much money? As long as you have told me, I would have been happy with it as well."

Though he was happy at getting the only memento of his father, Xiao Hua felt guilty for troubling Yu Dong. He knew that his father bought this hairpin for less than a hundred taels, and for Yu Dong to buy it for four hundred, he could not help but feel a bit embarrassed.
