Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1713: Tit for tat

So what if she was scolding him? If not for the fact that she could not hit him, Yu Dong would have done it too. He should be lucky that she was being kind enough to him and only scolding him.

Who was he to scold her brother?

"You…" As soon as Yu Dong finished speaking, Old Master Ding’s old face became even more wrinkly as he had scrunched up in anger. He wanted to say something harsh but when he looked at the wall that Yu Dong had smashed within seconds, he dared not to make any sound.

He instead turned to look at the little mer and questioned angrily, "Yu Mai, tell everyone honestly. Was it you who called my granddaughter to meet you outside the village? It was you, wasn’t it!?"

Yu Mai blinked his eyes, and even though he was being scolded rather harshly he was really calm. He said to the old mer, "What do you mean? Why would Mai call her outside? Mai doesn’t like her at all! She bullies Mai and steals Mai’s friend."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to look at Yu Dong and said to her, "Sister, I really do not like her. I never called her to play with me anywhere."

"I know," Yu Dong patted Yu Mai on the back comfortingly and the sight alone was enough to make Ding Nuan Nuan’s heart burst with jealousy. If only she was in Yu Mai’s place! How good it would be!

Yu Dong didn’t care about the calculations of the little girl as she knew that with the plan Wu Junfen had come up with Ding Nuan Nuan could forget about living in peace anymore.

At first, she had thought that they were being too harsh but now that she had heard Ding Nuan Nuan pushing this pot of blame on Yu Mai’s head, she was no longer as soft hearted as she was before.

She turned to look at Old Master Ding and said to him in a harsh voice, "Who are you raising your voice at huh? Do you think that my brother is someone you can yell at, huh, you old thing?"

Old Master Ding turned furious when he heard Yu Dong call him —old thing. He raised his hand and pointed his finger at Yu Mai before saying, "How dare you disrespect me like this? It was your brother who tried to kill my precious granddaughter. Now I can’t even question him?"

He sharply turned to look at Yu Mai and shouted, "Out with it, you Money losing thing! It was you who hurt my Nuan Nuan, isn’t that the truth? You better tell the truth or else don’t blame us for being unkind to you."

Old Master Ding thought that he was doing a good thing, after all, the last time Ding Nuan Nuan made a mistake, Yu Dong embarrassed him and his entire family in front of the village. This time around, he was going to make her suffer as well!

Not to mention he would also make her compensate their family. Heavily at that.

His thinking process was simple. As long as he scared Yu Mai, the child would burst out crying and confess even if he did not do it.

Who would have thought that Yu Mai did not cry, in fact, he looked at Old Master Ding and with his finger in between his lips he tilted his head to one side and questioned, "Then —if I am a money-losing thing…aren’t you the same?"

Old Master Ding: "…"

Everyone else: "…" Brilliant! Definitely Brilliant!

"Encore!" Wu Junfen clapped her hands as she looked at Yu Mai. Who turned his head and blinked his eyes at Wu Junfen before turning to look at Old Master Ding.

He pointed his wet fingertip after taking it out from his mouth at Old Master Ding and said, "You are a money-losing thing."

Everyone and Old Master Ding: "…" Yu Dong what did you make him eat!?

Yu Dong: … A hint of sass?

"You! Is that what you taught him!?" He questioned while looking at Yu Dong, his lips were quivering and his eyes were popping as he glared.

"No, it was you," Yu Dong fought back a smile as she looked at Old Master Ding. It seemed like she was worried for no reason, Yu Mai was her own mini-me. There was no way he would let anyone scold him without scolding them right back. "You were the one who called him a money-losing thing because he is a mer and so are you — so if you call my brother a money-losing thing …what are you?"

"So it is my fault!?"

"Do you see anyone else calling a mer as money losing thing here?"

Old Master Ding was so angry that he started trembling. However, a second later he recovered and said, "Like I said…there is something wrong with the mer! Look at how sharp tongued he is!"

Yu Dong felt distressed when she heard the mer say that there was something wrong with her brother. She narrowed her eyes and said, "What do you mean by that there is something wrong with my brother? Do you mean to say that as long as someone is sharp enough to retort your point, they are not human?"

"My brother just says whatever comes to his mind because he doesn’t know how to filter his thoughts. Why is he being accused of being a mountain spirit?"

Old Master Ding was dissatisfied with what Yu Dong said and was about to get angry when Yu Dong turned to look at Ding Nuan Nuan. She asked her, "You said that Mai was the one who asked you to come outside, did anyone see you and Mai together? And even if he asked you—you are older than him, why did you simply follow his instructions?"

"Not to mention, how come no one saw Mai return home from outside?"

She would love to see what Ding Nuan Nuan wanted to say now. Did she think that she was the only smart one here? Ding Nuan Nuan might be the smart one among the children but she was an adult.

Let’s see how Ding Nuan Nuan was going to get out of this trouble.

Since Ding Nuan Nuan wanted to use superstitious tactics against her brother then she would show her!

A second later, Ding Nuan Nuan trembled as if she was really frightened.

She lowered her head and said in a choked up voice , "I …wahh…I re…really … I am tel..telling the truth —he really —he really called me! I didn’t go outside on my own."

Having said that she threw herself in the arms of her daddy. She cried. "I am —wahhh! Wahh! I am not lying."

Gu Mo’s heart ached when he saw that Yu Dong had scared his daughter he turned to her and said to her, "Why are you scaring the child, Madam Dong? If you have something to say, just tell us. What’s the point of bullying a child!?"

Wu Jufen rolled her eyes, she blinked at Yu Mai who understood at once.

He turned to look at the little straw doll that was placed on the side of the bed and said to Ding Nuan Nuan, "You must be pushed by that lady… the one standing next to the doll. She must be the one who pushed you —she looks so scary. Bad woman!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire corridor fell silent.

A chill crawled up the spine of everyone present at the scene and they collectively took a step back.

Earlier when Ding Nuan Nuan continued saying that someone pushed her from behind causing her head to bang on the trunk of the tree, they all thought that she was mistaken but that was until they heard Yu Mai’s words.

So this was what happened!

Someone did push her but it was not Yu Mai!

But—But was this really true?

They all turned and looked at Yu Mai who looked at them with innocence brimming in his eyes, he did not look like he was someone who had just lied. There was so much innocence in those eyes!

What was more, Yu Mai was a fool. He couldn’t come up with such a dangerous lie in a matter of seconds!

So, Ding Nuan Nuan was really possessed?

Thinking of this, everyone took another step away.

Even Old Master Ding instinctively walked away, even Gu Mo looked like he wanted to run.

If not for the fact that Ding Nuan Nuan was his precious daughter he would have run away.

Ding Nuan Nuan was struck dumb. She did not expect that he would turn the situation around like this — no, that was not important. What was important was whether or not Yu Mai could see the spirit trapped in the doll!
