" Just let them be, let little bun act all he wants, you can teach him once your parents go back to their house" Yu Dong wasn't going to stop Chen Mi from teaching Little bun and in all honesty, Chen Mi wasn't wrong either. Though grandparents, looked at their grandchildren with rose-tinted glasses, it was the responsibility of the parents to rein in their kids so as they don't get too spoiled.

  Grandparents could dote as much as they want but parents need to be just as strict with their children! Or else they would turn bratty and undisciplined.

  Chen Mi hummed in agreement but still didn't let go of Yu Dong who kept patting Chen Mi on the back. She could understand that it was all very difficult for Chen Mi, he was already so young yet he had to take care of his son and now he was getting scolded for doing that. It was natural to feel upset.

  Ye Liu who just returned after washing the laundry and entered the house with a bucket full of washed clothes saw this scene the first thing as he walked inside. All of a sudden his entire mouth felt sour and his heart felt stuffy as he ate something that he could neither swallow nor vomit ( A/n: you just ate dog food)

  He looked at Chen Mi who was acting like baby then at his eldest brother who was stirring the porridge with such a ferocity that the porridge turned to the same gooey mush, little bun ate. Ye Liu understood what his brother was feeling so he good-naturedly tapped on Shen Li's shoulder and whispered " Brother Li, if you keep on stirring the porridge anymore, then I'm afraid it will become soup instead "

  Only then did Shen Li stop and look at the mushy porridge that he just cooked.

  Shen Li "……" this? Did I cook this?

  Shen Li was surprised, he wasn't the jealous type and he was really generous, he believed that he was - so he was really shocked upon seeing what he did to the poor porridge. But what he forgot was that though he was indeed the generous type he was like that for the previous Yu Dong, the current Yu Dong - it was hard to be generous when she was concerned!

  In the end, Shen Li added more shredded chicken in the porridge to make up for the damage that he caused, there was no other way. Who asked him not to pay attention and give Chen Mi the stinky eye all the time?

  Chen Mi didn't know that he was being envied by his two brothers, after he found out about Yu Dong's secret he just felt a bit closer to Yu Dong. And Yu Dong was really patient and doting especially towards him so he started to act a bit spoiled, he wasn't doing it deliberately, he just did it unknowingly on instinct.

  Soon the entire village came to know about that Yu Dong was rebuilding her house, at first they were shocked then shock turned into complete dumbfoundedness, they couldn't believe that Yu Dong got so rich that she could rebuild her house! She could not only afford to feed her mers meat every day, but she could also afford to build two new rooms, a shed and renovate her entire house! But some villagers still comforted them as the grapes were sour " I would rather be poor than become unpopular, that girl's reputation is so bad what if she creates trouble for our mers? Humph, didn't she get her in-laws to build her house? See, no one wants to help her"

  The villagers were trying to soothe themselves, on the other hand, Mother Chen and her daughters were having a very good time.

  The lunch that Shen Li cooked was a bit mushy but it had so much chicken in it! Yu Dong had even given some pickled vegetables that Granny Fang sent as a thank you when Yu Dong helper Fang Chi.

  Though it wasn't a fancy meal, Mother Chen and her daughters were quite satisfied, rice was expensive for common villagers. And more so the kind of rice that Yu Dong was using, her rice was not normal rice but rice with spiritual energy just like every other dish, that was cooked in their house this porridge was extremely nourishing and tasted really good because it was cooked with well water in which Yu Dong instilled her spiritual energy.

  Mother Chen and her daughter had never met an employer who gave them such a good meal, much less someone who let them eat as much as they wanted. So they were really happy, every day when it was time for lunch Chen sisters' eyes would sparkle as Chen Mi brought them their meals.

  Because Yu Dong was their sister in law and she was so generous, the Chen sisters and mother Chen didn't even think about slacking off a bit, they repeatedly worked hard each day, if not for Yu Dong who came to call them off at dusk, because she knew they need to go back to their house for rest, they might keep working till next morning!

  But Yu Dong didn't dare to slight her mother in law and sisters in law, she not only tightly kept watch of their working time, but she also sent them all the way to the village exit, with their dinner packed and paid for their ox cart every day. Even though mother Chen refused, Yu Dong insisted and in the end, together she and Chen Mi were able to persuade mother Chen, who in turn worked, even more, to repay them back-

  " Mother, Sister in law is really good, isn't she ?" said Eldest sister Chen as she bit the spicy chicken wings that Yu Dong packed for them, though Yu Dong packed a lot with four children, and four adults it was difficult for Eldest sister Chen to get a mouthful " she is really good to our Mi, haven't you seen our Mi have gotten fatter than before "

  Mother Chen nodded, ever since she received Chen Mi's letter she was a bit doubtful. She was sceptical at first and was even prepared to snatch Chen Mi away but her daughter in law changed for the better and now treated her son really well, as long as Yu Dong was good to Mi, Mother Chen had no issues regarding her - she also forgot about the incident where Yu Dong threatened her, to her, her son was more important than her ego.

  Now, Mother Chen found Yu Dong really pleasing to her eyes. She even thought that Yu Dong was a really nice woman, who was polite and reasonable it was just that she was wrong to get along with bad company. Yu Dong had paid each of them eight cents as she promised, and she was even generous with the porridge and everyday meals.

  The other two husbands of hers were also nice to her Chen Mi, though sometimes they got jealous of her Chen Mi as he was the most doted one but other than some envious glare and pouts they did nothing, instead they even scolded Chen Mi when he didn't take care of himself. Just like two big brothers.

  Though it was hard to commute each day, Mother Chen and her daughters didn't want to quit!
