Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 887: Reporting to the official

With their reluctant attitude, everyone could see that the villagers of the Big Stone Village did not wish to compensate. Yu Dong looked at the people who were crying so loudly that her head was throbbing and then pursed her lips as she opened her mouth but before she could say anything, a mer from the Big Stone Village stepped forward and started to cry,

" Mother please, please let my wife go. There was nothing that we could do, you were not helping us and did not even give us any grains —— there was nothing that we could do other than this, I promise that if you let her go now, we will not make a fuss! I promise that we might as well never appear in front of you! Take it as I am punishing myself."

The mer was someone who married from the Big River Village to the Big Stone, when he spoke up for his wife and the village who just tried to kill them, his mother was stunned. The elderly woman's eyes widened as she looked at the mer and then said, " Lu Chuwan, have you lost your head? How can you forget your roots after marrying into that village?! They tried to kill your mother and if were not lucky your maternal nephews would have become their dinner or lunch !"

Lu Chuwan who was called out burst into tears as he covered his face, he was ashamed of facing his mother and all the contemptuous gazes which were fixed on him made him feel even worse. He sobbed as he said, " Mother what am I supposed to do? It is not that I wish to do this as well but …but I have lost my son and my wife is the only one who is by my side now. If she dies here in front of me, how will I live?"

He had given birth to a mer son but because he did not get enough food to eat, the child he gave birth to was sick from the beginning. They did not have goats or sheep to milk either, he could only make mushy rice porridge for his son to feed him every day. But then the flood happened causing the temperature to drop further and his son who was weak to begin with fell sick.

They could not call a doctor to treat him either, for the past few months, he tried to take care of his son but he could not nurse his son back to health no matter what he did. In the end, when his son was on the verge of dying, the village chief snatched him away from him under the pretext that they could not waste any more food.

And he was ….

Lu Chuwan bit his lips, did he not hate it? He did, he hated it more than anything in this world! He wished he was the one who was eaten in exchange for his son's life but ——

He closed his eyes and then cried even harder as he kowtowed in front of Yu Dong and the rest as he said, " My wife did not take part in cannibalism, please let her off."

His wife never ate the flesh of a child or a mer, so why should she suffer with those human-eating monsters?

The mers of the Big River Village did not say anything as they hugged their children close, if his wife was innocent then were their children not innocent? They were almost harmed twice by these beasts, why should they just let it go just because they were apologising? When their wives were getting cut by knifes and scythes why did these people not think that they were innocent too?

What was more they even tried to snatch a newborn! A newborn who did not even see the world for a day! That little girl's eyes were still closed and she was yet to open them, yet they wanted to —— disgust filled their hearts as they glared at the Big Stone Villagers, they did not wish to even look at them.

Yu Dong also felt the same but as the owner of this territory she could not turn a blind eye to the situation which was why she parted her lips and coldly said, " In my opinion, forgiveness is only given to those who deserve it. Let me ask you do you think you deserve it? The reason you are apologizing is not because you feel sorry for what you have done, you are only apologizing because you were caught, if your wives had won and killed us all, I don't think either one of you would have lowered your head, am I right?"

Her voice was light but the content hidden in it was rather thick, when the villagers of the Big Stone village heard her words, they lowered their heads and pursed their lips in silence. Because what Yu Dong said was indeed the truth, if their wives were not caught and they were able to suppress the women from the Big River Village, they truly would not have apologized to them.

" Ah, we have already knelt in front of you, why are you still holding a grudge? Do you really have to force us to our death? Fine, I am willing to die for you to see!" The elderly mer who was kneeling in front of Yu Dong suddenly got up and took out a dagger from his daughter's shirt pocket and then raised it against his chest as if he was going to stab himself.

When the villagers of the Big River village saw this they instantly went to stop the mer but they were too far from the Old mer.

Yu Dong who stood the closest was annoyed as her eyes flickered with impatience. She raised her leg and kicked the mer on his abdomen causing him to stumble as the knife which he was holding in his hands fall on the ground.

Once the knife was on the ground, Yu Dong kicked it far behind her before raising her head and saying, " This place is in front of my house, don't you dare to dirty it."

The old mer who tried to kill himself: "….." You call us beast, you are more of a beast! You know!
