Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Castrate You Once More _1

"Sister Lian, don’t just look, choose! Or, just have one of each piece made!" Lady Du generously suggested.

She has always been a generous person, especially towards those who treat her well, she could give everything she has. Moreover, Third Elder Mu has brought back news of her husband. To her, this is incredibly precious.

"No, no, that’s too much..."

Third Uncle Mu repeatedly waved his hands. He was a person with a thin skin who could hardly accept others’ generosity. Accepting a piece of fabric from Zhongqing’s family was already his limit. If not for his precious daughter, he would not have accepted this piece of fabric at all.

After several moments of hesitation, with both shyness and excitement, Cai Lian pointed at the autumn-coloured Wishful-Clouds patterned satin and meekly said, "Just this one."

Once Cai Lian had made her choice, Lady Du immediately ordered Auntie Liu to take the fabric and accompany Cai Lian to the tailor shop they visited earlier to have her new clothes made, while also getting a skirt and a pair of embroidered shoes made at the same time.

Auntie Liu and Aunt Zhang immediately led Cai Lian away, Lady Du entered a nearby little teahouse with Third Elder Mu couple, chatting while waiting for them to return.

During this time, Third Elder Mu gave Lady Du a brief account of his and Zhongqing’s experiences over the past half a year. He omitted details about being bullied and driven away like an outcast, but it still made Lady Du shed tears out of sympathy. Especially when she heard that her husband had to only eat one meal a day in order to return home before the New Year, and the thousand-mile journey was mostly accomplished on foot, she was moved to tears...

Her husband had suffered so much hardship, rushing back home from afar, only to not receive a shred of warmth but instead, face the tantrum of the old lady and be forced to save someone in the county early in the morning. However, without money or influence, how could he find a way to save them? Besides, the crimes the main branch of the family had committed were against the national law, and were unlikely to be absolved by a simple scholar.

After some thought, she made up her mind. When she got home, she would pack up and head to Yushu County City to find her husband!

After having her clothes made, Cai Lian returned, her face flushed with excitement as if she had been drinking. With matters on her mind, Lady Du stood up to bid farewell and hurriedly returned home, her children and servants in tow.

Once they left, Third Elder Mu sighed, "Mrs. Scholar really has a kind heart. She gave such an expensive piece of fabric without hesitation. She’s a truly good person!"

Third Aunt Mu said, "I heard that their Sister Wei came up with the idea of selling skewered meat in town. It’s a big hit now. That’s why they can afford to give us such a good thing. It’s true that good begets good!"

The couple sighed in admiration at this good fortune before setting off to the market to sell their mountain goods. The New Year was just a few days away, and they had yet to buy the New Year’s goods. They were depending on the money from selling these mountain goods.

At home,

Cai Wei was busy helping Chang Mei plant fruit trees in the space when she suddenly heard footsteps outside. She quickly came out of the space, only to see her mother and children rushing in, excitedly announcing, "Wei’er, your dad is back!"

Cai Wei was stunned. "What? Dad is back?"

Fei’er confirmed, "Yes, big sister, dad is back. We just ran into Third Uncle Mu and his family. Third Uncle Mu said that dad came back last night, but this morning..."

"Wei’er, quickly instruct Zhang Bo to prepare the carriage. I need to go to the county to look for your dad..." Lady Du hastily ordered.

"At the county? Didn’t Dad come home last night? He should be in Mu Family Village, how did he end up in the county?" Cai Wei was left confused by them.

Wen’er said resentfully: "It all because of grandmother. Early in the morning, she chased Dad to the county, to save those bad people from the big household."

Lady Du was anxious at this moment; thinking about her husband alone in the county, without money or connections and maybe getting rejected everywhere, she felt sad. Her eyes reddened again: "Your dad has been through a lot of hardships, and has just managed to return home, only for your grandmother to drive him out again. It’s pitiful that he has no money and will be completely clueless in the county. What can he do? I will pack up the necessary items and go to the county to find him and at least assist him."

Upon hearing their mother’s firm decision to find their father, Wu’er and Wen’er pleaded with her to take them along.

Lady Du thought and realized that her husband, being away for so long, would certainly miss the children. Besides, Cai Wei was very busy and didn’t have time to take care of the children. Leaving the children at home, she was not at ease. After weighing the options, she agreed to the children’s requests.

Although Cai Wei was worried about her mother traveling a long distance with a few children alone, she knew that her parents had deep affection for each other and her mother, despite being weak, would never compromise on matters related to her father. Therefore, even if she objected, her mother wouldn’t give in. So she allowed it.

Lady Du packed up a few clothes, took some silver and, escorting Fei’er, Wen’er and Wu’er, was in a hurry to set off.

Cai Wei called Zhang Bo, gave him a detailed order and rewarded him with 500 copper coins, then sent them away.

Tonight, she would take over the dessert shop next door, try to get rid of the evildoer, and welcome Zhao Yun to come over to live. She had to handle these things personally. So now, she really couldn’t split herself, and had to let her mother leave on her own!

Because she was sure there was no one at home, Cai Wei relaxed a lot and no longer had to worry about being caught. With a large plate of steamed seafood, she returned to her room. She put the tray on the incense table, and then brought out a few small dishes, each containing minced garlic, ginger juice and soy sauce...

The hot seafood was fragrant, and the delicacy filled the room. Nangong Yi happily picked up a plump crab, handed it to Cai Wei, and said confidently: "Peel the crab meat for me."

Cai Wei gave him a sideways glance, silently took the crab, and with a strong pull, opened the crab shell. Immediately, a unique delicate fragrance of the crab hit her nose. The golden crab yellow mixed with butter and the tender white crab meat were extremely appetizing at first glance.

After peeling a shell of crab meat, drizzled with soy sauce and minced garlic and ginger juice, she cast a glance at the man, put it into her own mouth, and slowly began to eat, completely ignoring the man’s astonished look.

"Tonight, my family members are not home, so you can’t threaten me like before!" she said with a cold sneer.

Nangong Yi was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Oh, does that mean your household servants are not human?"

As Cai Wei continued eating, she glanced at him darkly: "There’s some distance from my room to where the servants are. If you make any noise and they hear it, I have enough time - to castrate you!"

While saying this, she purposely glanced at the lower part of the man’s abdomen.

Suddenly, the man’s smile broke out, his finger pointed at her with a slight trembling, and he said in an amused tone: "You... can even utter such crude words, are you still a woman?"

Cai Wei put the last piece of crab meat into her mouth, and while chewing, she laughed lightly: "Whether I’m a woman or not is the least of your concerns, the only thing you should worry about is whether you’ll remain a man in a little while!"
