Shen Li thought that he was going to be broken in half but just as his waist was going to be snapped in half, he felt Yu Dong pause as she undid the strings on his wrist and then let him go down before looping an arm around his waist. He expected a sigh of relief to escape from his lips but instead to his surprise and dismay, he heard a soft whine as if wanting more.  0

His face could not help but burn when Yu Dong looked down at him and with a soft chuckle said, " There is no need for you to be so restless, we have a long life ahead of us and your body is mine to play with as I please—— unless you want another woman." 

She was only joking but Shen Li snapped at her by biting her on the shell of her ear as he growled, " I do not need anyone else." 

He did not know who was the one who fiddled with the head of his wife but she suddenly suggested that they should go and have fun on their own if they wanted, since it was not right for her to have so many mers but them to have only her. 

Though her expression was uneasy back then, she still acted on her morals which were all about being fair but of course, she was beaten up nicely for bringing it up. Did they look like they wanted anyone else other than her?

Yu Dong only let out a muffle ow before laughing as he helped him clean up and then go back to sleep after dressing him in a set of clean clothes, he did not have to worry about the mess they have made because Yu Dong usually took care of it. 

With his eyelids falling shut he went to sleep while Yu Dong changed into a new set of clothes and walked out of the room only to see heavy snow which started to fall covering the fields which were freshly dug and sighed. 

Looks like the heavens were really against her. 

The villagers of the big river village thought that the snow of this year would be like last year but as days passed by the snow which should have stopped falling after a week continued to fall one after another week until their entire village was covered in nothing but a white thick layer of snow which not only covered their lands but also the mountains which were behind their village. 

And as the thick snow continued to fall they realised that all the paths which led to the capital were closed off even going to town became truly difficult.

It could be said that even those who were a bit optimistic in the beginning turned pessimists with the thick snow covering the village. Under Yu Dong's urging they went to the town while the snow was not as thick as it was at the moment and indeed bought some grains but that was only enough for a few weeks and not months.

They did not wish to use every bit of money that they have saved in the past but now that they were all regretting their miserly actions. 

  In a moment of panic, the villagers looked at the thick snow which looked like it was not going to melt until spring and in the end could not help but turn to Village head Gu and Yu Dong. 

Yu Dong did not intend to listen to the troubles of the villagers, after all, she was not spouting nonsense when she told them to use all the money to buy grains, money could be earned again but was like something that could be earned if others wanted to. But she could not leave these people to die either which was why she could only think of a countermeasure.

She looked at the crowd which was surrounding her and then said, " My family does not have enough grains either since we need to take care of young and old including those who are living in the shacks," in these few weeks more and more people have came in contact with flu bearers and had fallen sick, she did not have enough hands to take care of everyone. "I am willing to take out grains but that does not mean that everyone should rely on me alone, if you want grains then I am willing to sell—- it will be at the market price before the flood happened." 

" The rice will be sold for three hundred copper coins as for the rest of the grains, we can haggle but not much." 

" I am willing to take grains out as well," said Village head Gu, now she realised why Yu Dong asked her to buy so much grain. It was to make sure that everyone will be able to take benefit from it!

She turned to look at the villagers and then said in a stern voice, " But my charges will be the same, no haggling when you come and see me." 

Under Yu Dong and Village Head Gu's lead, Aunt Wang and Wu Junfen also agreed to sell their grains to the villagers.

After explaining she noticed that though most of the villagers were all right with the decision that she had taken but some were dissatisfied, seeing their dissatisfied expression, Yu Dong's voice turned grim as she said, " What? Are you not happy? Do you think that just because I am the owner of this land, I should take care of you like a child? feeding you with a spoon?" She addressed the women who were wearing ugly expressions. " Don't think that just because I became the owner of this village, I have an obligation of taking care of you all, I only need to make sure that this village develops in the right direction and nothing else, in fact without people who hope to leech on the wealth of others, I think that the village will definitely do better! So don't give me that look!"
