1039: never dig the garden of others

never dig the garden of others

Yu Dong was not afraid of Wang Yu even if that woman was an official, everyone had a bottom line. The Wang family have repeatedly stomped on her bottom line by bringing her children up again and again, it would be surprising if she would have any good attitude towards them.  2

" Is your Madam, Official Wang?" Yu Dong asked with an attitude that was neither servile nor overbearing. She was not going to hurt anyone unless they did not mess with her for no reason. Since these two mammies said that they were here to talk then she would talk with them! 

The Mammy in front nodded and then replied, " Thats right. Madam Wang knows that there was a misunderstanding between you and her niece a few days ago which is why she invited you to clear the misunderstanding up." 

The way the Mammy spoke it was as if she was reprimanding Yu Dong for causing trouble. As if it was Yu Dong who made a mountain out of molehill. 

Seeing how casually the Mammy was speaking to her, Yu Dong narrowed her eyes and then said, " Oh so you mean to say that when Madam Wang's niece sent two mammies to catch my husbands and then assault them while threatening me to hand her the vegetables grown by my family at a price which was much lower than the one that I have set, it was a misunderstanding? Then how many more misunderstandings are there?" 

" Is your young miss a child who does not know that forcing someone and dragging them to an abandoned courtyard where she speaks to them about how she can ruin their family is not kidnapping? If so then why are you allowing her to roam around? Just lock her up." 

The mammies' expression worsened they all looked at Yu Dong with a frown on their faces. If not for the fact that this woman had the protection of the Yamen, they would have dealt with her so cleanly that she would have forgotten how to use this sharp tongue of hers. 

Yu Dong also knew that she needed to deal with the Wang family carefully. She could not sit still at home and then wait for death to come knocking at her door, with that thought in her mind she looked at the mammies and then said, " Is there anything else that you want to say ?" 

The mammies wanted to say a lot of things but they all held themselves back, they still needed Yu Dong. They couldn't allow her to mess up the situation more than it already was —— thus even though they were angry they could only suppress their anger.

The leader of the mammy was called Mammy Heng. She looked at Yu Dong and then sullenly spoke, " Our Madam only wants to invite you to a small dinner, there is no need for you to be so vigilant." 

" Will you be not vigilant if you were in my shoes?" Yu Dong sneered as she looked at Mammy Heng. She calmly crossed her arms in front of her and then said, " Since your madam has invited me then I have the right to ignore the invite as well right?" She was not going to listen to anything that the Wang family had to say even if she was to give them a chance, Yu Dong knew that a family as corrupted as the Wang family will never let her off. 

With her lips thinly pursed, she looked at Mammy Heng and then said, " Since you have heard my response, I think it's time for you to leave." 

Hearing Yu Dong's response the mammies could not help but get angry. They looked at the officers from the Yamen before Mammy Heng lowered her head and then whispered, " Don't refuse a toast only to drink it after forfeit!" 

" Who is daring enough to force Yu Dong to drink a toast that she did not want to drink?" Aunt Wang rolled her sleeves and stepped forward. She glared at the mammies and then said with a cold sneer playing on her lips, " You better think it through carefully! If you dare harm her, you will be making the entire villagers of the Big Stone Village your enemies, so watch what you say!" 

" Exactly!" Tan Mo stepped forward as she flared up at the Mammies. " Miss Yu is the benefactor of this village you better think twice before harming her in any way!" 

" Thats right!" 

" I will hit you if you dare harm our Boss Yu!" 

" Boss Yu is going nowhere! You better run back to where you came from!" 

The villagers all knew how important Yu Dong was for them and thus they did not even hold back as they scolded the mammies. Some even picked up their shoes from the ground and then hurled them at Mammy Heng and the rest. 

" Get lost! This village does not welcome you!" 

" Evil, unscrupulous merchants who think that they can do whatever they want!" 

" Get out! And never come back!" 

Seeing that the villagers were agiated the mammies could only leave with a sorry expression on their faces. But even though they left they did not forget to glare at Yu Dong who waved her hand back at them. 

" What are you going to do now?" Aunt Wang turned to look at Yu Dong who was smiling. " They don't seem like people who would leave the matter at rest." 

Yu Dong sneered and then said, " Since they don't appreciate the kindness that I have shown to them. Then they can only blame themselves for creating trouble for no reason." She then turned on her heels and sharply said, " There is a small and old proverb that says——those who have their own skeletons buried in their garden should never dig the gardens of others. But the Wang family is stupid enough to not realize that they need to clean up their own garden before digging others… since they are so willing to hand their heads on a silver platter then I will fulfil their wishes."
