Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1067: Miss Yu?
After hearing Yu Dong's words, Rong Xi deflated like a balloon. She did not know what to say anymore, with her weakness in Yu Dong's hands even if she wanted to make a fuss what could she do?
Only Old Madam Rong felt like her chest was filled with cotton, she looked at Yu Dong and said, " You are forcing our family to die!"
" Am I forcing your family to die? Old Madam Rong don't be shameless!" Yu Dong scolded with a fierce voice causing Old Madam Rong to be stunned. " The properties that you owned are all handed to you by your mother, you haven't earned a single penny. Yet you govern over the land as if you were the one who bought it, your daughter is equally shameless."
" She does not want to work in the field so instead of going out and exploring jobs, she snatched her sister's and ruined her sister's life. If you ask me this is your karma. If you had treated Rong Yi better then she would have not only treated you well but even helped your family but your selfishness made it impossible for you to be kind.
Now that you are in this situation who else can you blame but yourself?"
Yu Dong's words stripped off Old Madam Rong's face bare, the latter wanted to say something but she could not bring herself to say anything. Under Yu Dong's pressure and threats, they could only separate as she told them.
Once the separation document was in Rong Yi's hands, Yu Dong turned to look at Old Madam Rong and loudly announced, " Since Madam Rong and her husband stole the government's funds, they will be fined with twenty taels as per the orders of the magistrate. And from now on they are no longer allowed to have any share in the future funds, on the Rong family is blacklisted!"
Yu Dong's words caused another uproar, the mers who secretly wanted to keep the money for their daughters and maternal family immediately turned pale. They were so scared that their legs turned to jelly, no, they could no longer keep the money in their pockets, as soon as they went back home they would hand the money to their sons-in-law, lest they end up rebelling like Rong Yi.
The sum of money was not big but it was not small either, if they were to take out fifteen taels only to repay it by twenty it would be a loss!
Of course Yu Dong knew that there were a few families who were stealing the funds which was why she was killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, she did not want to bother herself with this matter anymore.
" NO!" Old Master Rong screamed but Yu Dong did not listen, she waved her hand and then headed back to her house. It did not matter what the other people were doing or thinking, since they relied on her they all needed to listen to her orders.
Once Yu Dong stepped out of the Rong house, Rong Yi followed her like a pitiful helpless follower, seeing her follow her, Yu Dong was a bit confused and could not help but ask, " Sister Yi, why are you following me?" freёwebnoѵel.com
She had dealt with the matter and she had handed Rong Yi the key to her freedom, so why was she following her?
Rong Yi flushed in embarrassment as she heard Yu Dong's words. She bowed her head and said, " Miss Yu, if you don't mind can you hire me? I don't care what sort of job you arrange for me as long as it pays a decent sum such that I can feed my family, I will do it."
Rong Yi had tasted despair. When she fell from the building and her mother said that she would look after her, she still had some hope in her heart but then her hope turned into despair when she saw her mother throw her limp body out of the house just because she ate a piece of meat that was supposed to go in the bowl of her eldest granddaughter.
She gave up everything and that was how she was repaid by family.
That was when Rong Yi understood that one could only rely on oneself, she then went to Yu Dong and borrowed a sum of money before starting to farm but farming would take time, and she needed some money in her pockets to fill the stomachs of her husband and daughter.
Yu Dong's brows furrowed but then she thought about how Rong Yi was a skilled mason and said, " Can you build a barricade around the village? One that almost reaches the top and is tall and sturdy? I want it so strong that no one would be able to break or climb it."
She wanted to be prepared, if her village was filled with resources then refugees would definitely try to look for a way to enter the village and plunder it but she did not want that to happen if the village was attacked by refugees then all her hard work would go down the drain.
" I can, I can!" Rong Yi nodded excitedly. In the past, she once travelled to the Imperial City with her master and they had the fortune to work on the city closer to the Imperial City and build a barricade around that city. It belonged to a princess and was under her control, though Rong Yi only helped her master she grasped the essence of building the large barricade.
Thus she knew that she could build this type of barricade with confidence. While Rong Xi relied on purely copying her skills, Rong Yi relied on her learning thus she knew a lot more than Rong Xi who got complacent after learning a few skills from Rong Yi.
" Very well then, you can start tomorrow, I will pay you five hundred copper coins every day," Yu Dong sighed in relief, she was worried about where to look for masons who knew such skills but now that she knew it, she did not have to worry about the barricade anymore.
" Um, Miss Yu?"
