” Why not?” said Yu Dong as she handed them, a bowl of medicine each. ” You two won’t be living there forever right? You can take this as some sort of vacation and spend some time there,” then she paused and added, ” I have always wanted to move to the capital, you two can check it out for me.”

After saying this she turned around as she walked toward the kitchen. Shen Li and Ye Liu chased after her almost immediately while holding the bowls of medicine carefully in their hands so as to not drop any drop of the medicine.

Not that they wanted to take it but because they were afraid that spilling even a drop would get them punished to drink another bowl of this monstrosity.

” How can we go alone?” asked Shen Li as he worriedly looked at Yu Dong. ” If you were going with us then it would have made sense but you are staying in the village, how can we go to the capital without you?”

” That’s right,” said Ye Liu who looked equally anxious as he looked at Yu Dong. ” We haven’t even gone to the prefectural city yet, you want us to go to the capital?” Then he looked down at his hands and added, “aren’t you worried that people will laugh at you? What kind of wife sends her husbands to the capital and that too all alone.”

” Liu is right, people will make fun of you saying that we are going to run away.” Shen Li added as he looked at Yu Dong who was looking at the new book that Wu Junfen has given her, nowadays, she spent most of her time reading it.

She said that it was for medicinal purposes but Shen Li knew it was more than that since Yu Dong didn’t let anyone have a look at the book.

” Are you two going to run away?” asked Yu Dong as she closed the book when she saw that Shen Li was peering into it. The book was about soul summoning and how she could raise her cultivation, though she didn’t mind them watching it, she didn’t know how they feel after learning that their souls were summoned back from the afterlife.

Given how sensitive they are, she was sure that their reactions would be over the top.

Closing the book, she walked out of the kitchen and lightly added, ” If you have plans about running away with a rich and more beautiful woman, you might as well tell me now, I will be prepared——”

” To kick us out?” asked Ye Liu with an eye roll.

” No, kill that woman who eyed what’s mine.” She chuckled when Ye Liu’s face flushed.

Shen Li’s face twisted as he glared at Yu Dong and Ye Liu with disapproval. ” What nonsense you two are talking about,” then he turned to Yu Dong who looked away, knowing that Shen Li was angry now. ” Do we look like we will run away?”

Yu Dong closed one eye and winced at his accusatory tone and laughed dryly. ” I was just joking, and it was you who brought the matter up saying that the villagers will tease that my mers are going to run away. I was just answering your question.”

Shen Li narrowed his eyes as he stomped toward Yu Dong and stopped her from walking into her room. ” Why aren’t you taking this seriously?”

Yu Dong heaved an exasperated sigh as she placed the book on the cabinet and leaned against it. ” And why should I take it seriously? It’s just going to the capital and Chu Chang will be accompanying you.”

”It’s not okay!”

” Why? Chu Chang is going, you two can tag along with him too.”

” His case is different,” said Shen Li, his brows so tightly furrowed that he could have pinched a mosquito to death with those creases. ” He does not have a wife, so no one would say anything, but we have a wife, how can we go without you?”

”Because I am your wife, not your daddy,” said Yu Dong with a really patient voice. ” I can not take you all along while holding your fingers, I gave you all this responsibility because I can’t take it alone. If I am still chaperoning you all-around what’s the point?”

Shen Li and Ye Liu’s expressions turned green as they glared at Yu Dong, this was the first time she has scolded them like this and it went without saying that they didn’t like it at all.

”Fine, then what about our treatment? If you are not going then who will take care of our health?” Shen Li tried to put up one last fight.

But Yu Dong was prepared as she rolled her shoulder back and shot back smoothly. ” Sister Junfen is leaving for the capital as well, she will take care of you two. And compared to me, she is much more knowledgeable.”

Just like that the last battle was lost as well. Shen Li looked at Yu Dong with frustration brimming out of his eyes as he almost cursed out. ” What if I don’t want to leave?”

” Then I will have to tie you two up and send you together with Chu Chang,” when they looked at her in disbelief, she smiled and hiked up a brow. ” What you don’t believe me? Try it… I promise you I can knock you two out for three days.”

The two no longer doubted her but then again they weren’t exactly happy with the outcome.

” I don’t like it,” said Shen Li finally with a huff as he strode to the dining table and yanked a chair before sitting down. ” I don’t want to go to the capital!”
