Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1762: What
Chapter 1762: What
"What did you say?" The mers felt their heads explode when they heard Ye Liu's words.
One of the mers who had been jealous of Ye Liu and the rest, narrowed his eyes and said to Ye Liu, "How do you know that? Have you done something that made you realise that she was not interested in mers or men?"
When Ye Liu heard the words of the mer who had spoken, he smiled down at him haughtily. He knew very well why this mer was targeting him. After all, his wife had never paid any attention to this mer even when he had tried his best to hop around in front of her.
Ye Liu had not forgotten how this mer would rush to wherever his wife was and would then offer her water and something else to eat and drink.
Of course, his wife was not willing to deal with people like him so she simply ignored him and went on with her day. However, this mer had been holding a grudge since then.
But he dared not to get angry with Yu Dong which was why he had been targeting him and his brothers.
Ye Liu snorted and said, "I don't know about others but I have the brains and wits to find out the true personality of a person without doing such a hideous thing. Why do you think it took so long for me to get pregnant with my wife's child? I was waiting for her to turn into a new leaf and become sensible."
"I didn't even give her a child, for I wanted her to become a better person. Do you think that I will sleep with just about anyone? Hahaha! You must be joking."
"The reason I kept this matter to myself was that she has a daddy who is an experienced matchmaker and back then I had no power to fight with her, if she had gone against me then things would have escalated to the point where I would have harmed my family."
"As well as the village, do you think that woman and her daddy would have let go of the innocent mers if I said this matter out loud?"
"If you have nothing to do with her then why did she come looking for you?" the mer did not let Ye Liu off, after all, the chance to ruin a mer like Ye Liu who was protected by Yu Dong so fiercely hardly came. So how could he let go of this opportunity so easily?
Ye Liu felt like pulling the tongue out of the mer who kept hurling allegations at him. But then he thought of his child and calmed down, there was no point in getting angry with a mer like this.
He closed his eyes and exhaled, trying his best to keep his temper in check as he said to the mer, "Why else? Everyone knows that my wife has succeeded in her ventures and is now earning a million taels. Why else would anyone want to get close to me? Zhou Jiao Jiao wanted me to start an affair with her and support her."
"Even if her daddy is an expert matchmaker, there is no way he would earn as much money as my wife, right? So it's not surprising that the woman came to look for me, or is it?"
Ye Liu then paused and added, "And I am not blind. Anyone with eyes can see that my wife is much better than most of the women. And even if she isn't, I assure you that she is better than Zhou Jiao Jiao at the least. Why do you think that I would actually go after her when I have my wife?"
Zhou Jiao Jiao had enjoyed herself a bit too much in her youth. Now she looked skinny as well as sickly and her complexion was yellow and her eyes were sunken. She looked like a ghoul.
Compared to her, Yu Dong was simply at another level.
Ye Liu then said to the rest, "The reason I kept quiet was because I did not wish to entangle with that woman, not to mention it's truly disgusting."
"Liu, you mean –that Zhou Jiao Jiao truly likes women?"

It was not a bad thing for a woman to like women after all many of the imperial officials had women as their concubines as well. What was disgusting was marrying a mer and having a child when she didn't even like mers!
Ye Liu lowered his voice and said to the rest of the mer, "Or else? Do you think I will dare to say such things out loud? Wouldn't I be caught in trouble?"
"Come to think of it," one of the mers said with a frown on his face. "I did hear that the undergarments of women were being stolen. At first, I thought that I was hearing things, after all, why would someone steal the underpants of women? Should it not be mers or maybe even men?"
"I seemed to have heard the same thing," chimed another mer. "The women of that village are quite annoyed, they all thought that it was the work of a perverted man or a mer. Who would have thought this flower thief was actually a woman!?"
If a woman's underclothes were being stolen, naturally they would doubt the opposite gender. Thus, Zhou Jiao Jiao remained safe till now. After all, no one would doubt her.
After all, why would a woman want a woman's underclothes unless she was simply beyond perverted? And that too the unwashed one!
The mer who had spoken earlier targeted Ye Liu again, he said to him, "How do you know such things? Do you have any evidence to back up your claims?"
Ye Liu snickered as he said, "Do you think I will say these things without any evidence? If you are so eager to clear her name, just go to her house and pull the box that is hidden under her bed. She likes to wear the unwashed laundry of women after all, so she doesn't own any and uses others."
