Yu Mai went on his fours in depression, in his mind, only one thing was circulating and that was if his elder sister won't hit him, the baby won't leave, if the baby didn't leave then he will have to give birth to it .. and if he gave birth to it .. he will be called shameless! Boohoo! He wasn't shameless! He was a good child but now because of just one mistake of sleeping with Lang Ru, he will become a bad child!
If he became a bad child, then his sister won't like him and his brothers in law will hate him too… no one in the village will play with him! Yu Mai felt like he was going to be pushed in a corner soon!
" Mai, what's wrong little baby?" Ye Liu saw Yu Mai acting like this and felt that something was up with him and because he didn't have any child of his own Ye Liu treated Yu Mai like his own son. His heart that was filled with fatherly love couldn't see Yu Mai down like this, he couldn't harden his heart like Yu Dong, so he crouched and picked up Yu Mai in his arms carefully before wiping his tears that were hanging on his eyelashes and took out a candy that he carried in his pocket out of habit " Here eat this, and calm down first."
Yu Mai took the candy in his hands but just as he was unwrapping it, his hands stopped – if he ate then the child in his tummy will eat too wouldn't … wouldn't it become big then? No, he first needed to take care of this stubborn baby who won't just leave before eating this candy.. it was obviously his why will he share it with that naughty baby. Humph, that baby just sneaked in his tummy at least ask him before sneaking in! Wasn't this tres…trey..trespassing, yeah that's right!
How will the baby like it if someone sneaked in his tummy without permission?
So, for the first time in his life – Yu Mai didn't eat the candy instead he put it in his pockets, startling Ye Liu and the other two. The three of them looked at Yu Mai in surprise and blinked their eyes… Chen Mi went so far as to rub his eyes and stared at Yu Mai who was pouting in Ye Liu's lap like he has been wronged to the oblivion and beyond.
" Mai, my dear baby ..what happened?" Shen Li, this gentle brother in law couldn't help but worry as he looked at Yu Mai's sullen expression " did you make a bet with someone that you will get hit by your elder sister?"
Yu Mai scratched the back of his head who will make such a useless bet? What was his eldest brother in law talking about?
Yu Mai shook his head and then thought of something " Brother in law, do you want a baby?"
At the mention of baby, all the three mers perked up and looked down at Yu Mai with a stunned silence " yeah we want it.. what about it?"
Yu the smart baby Mai smirked and wisely said " Brothers in law if you want a baby .. then you have to hit me. If you do that then you will get a child! Remember to hit me hard!"
If his brothers in law hit him then they want the baby, the baby will realize it and it will go to his brothers in law's tummy! After that, he doesn't have to worry about the baby! He just needs the baby to sneak out of his tummy and sneak into his brothers in law's tummy!
He was a genius!
Yu Mai who didn't know the importance of a baby to a married mer, underestimated the desire of his brothers in law's desire to have a baby because even if what Yu Mai said was gibberish talk, but Shen Li, Ye Liu and Chen Mi who were greatly superstitious immediately raised their hands and-
Pa ! Pa ! Pa!
Yu Mai was hit as he has never been hit before felt his butt sting and then a sharp pain spread all over his bottom and then – "BOOHOO! YOU ACTUALLY HIT ME THIS HARD!"
Yu Dong, who just lied down on the bed immediately sat up straight and jumped as she ran out of the room "what's wrong? What's wrong?"
She didn't know what went outside and only saw a little round ball running towards her before that ball started climbing her like he was a cat and she was a cat post. Yu Dong sighed and took Yu Mai in her arms feeling a new headache rising in her head, as she rocked her little brother in her arms as she softly cooed "what's wrong Mai? What happened to you, tell sister.. sister will bully who bullied you"
" Them!" Yu Mai who already fulfilled his goal ruthlessly abandoned his brothers in law and complained to Yu Dong about what just happened after listening to her little brother, Yu Dong didn't know who to scold first. Should she hit Yu Mai for lying to his brothers in law or should she hit her husbands for falling for Yu Mai's childish talk, the brat was clearly looking for trouble yet they still let him lead them all around by their noses.
She was simply speechless!
" You three really! What ability does he have to make you all get a baby?" said Yu Dong feeling both exasperated and amused " If you want a baby then you have to come to me!"
The three mers who were led around by their noses immediately flushed in shame and embarrassment.
Then Yu Dong turned to look down at Yu Mai and scolded him " Mai! Out with it what did you do? Or else I will take you to a doctor and let him give you bitter medicine!"
Yu Mai was immediately scared by the mention of the doctor, if a doctor really came to see him then he will know what was wrong with him and then he will become a shameless child! When Yu Mai thought it like this, he started crying even louder!
Yu Dong whose ear was directly attacked by Yu Mai felt as if her patience was being tested, she instantly chided Yu Mai " you brat stopped crying or else I will beat you!"
" Sister Yu, don't hit Yu Mai" Lang Ru who heard the sorrowful cries of the daddy of her child immediately rushed to the main house, Lang and Zhu Qian who saw this rushed after their daughter, what was this girl doing? How can she interfere in the matter of their masters! But before they could stop Lang Ru, the latter has already run to Yu Dong and then said the most shocking words!
" Sister Yu, Mai is pregnant with my child. If you hit him then it will hurt the child" Lang Ru who has mentally prepared to take responsibility for Yu Mai and her child stepped forward to protect her baby daddy (a ten-year-old is more responsible than some grown-up,humph)
Her sudden exclamation shocked everyone even Yu Mai who was so stunned that he stopped crying.
Yu Dong instinctively reached for her knife but then stopped – no, wait this feels wrong.
On the other hand, Lang immediately shook her head and pulled her daughter by the back of her collar and smacked her butt! Each hit was harsher than the first one " You brat! What the hell did you do to the young master! What have I been teaching you? How can you do something like this? Did my- your mother's teaching means fart to you? See how I will teach you! You irresponsible brat! How can you do something like this to the young master?"
Lang who was shocked beyond belief completely forgot that even if Lang Ru did anything…she didn't have the ability… at most, she could only smooch Yu Mai…:)
