Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 569: What’s going on?

Yu Dong felt her teeth lock, this was why she hated this village. She understood that this world was like this but she still couldn't help but be annoyed by how little the women of this world thought of mers. They all died so painfully, even when they were dying their eyes were filled with terror and yet these women who should have cared for them were now trying to shirk responsibility saying that it has nothing to do with them.          

    

She clicked her tongue in annoyance but didn't say anything else, she was worried if she was to say anything then she will end up saying something harsh to this woman and then they will get off track again.     

She turned her head to glance at the village head Gu who was looking at the women with annoyance brimming in her eyes. From the look on her face, it was clear that she was thinking the same thing as her.      

" That's enough," when the women were all chattering, Yu Dong heard the voice of a woman interrupting them, she turned her head to look at the woman who intervened in the situation and frowned.

Yu Dong has never seen this woman before but with that sharp nose and upturned eyes, she could see the similarities between her and the village head most probably this woman was the village head's sister.      

" You all don't you think that you are going too far? Those mers have been a member of your families, some married off to your family while some gave birth to your children as for the rest they were your brothers and sons, how can you all talk about them like this? Be a bit more grateful to them. The least you can do is to bury them properly after their deaths what is with this yelling and shouting?"      

" Gu Li, what do you know?" One of the women who was shouting the loudest turned her attention to Gu Li. " If this matter is known to others how will we raise our heads and what's more the other villages will make fun of us, they will say that we can't even protect our mers!"      

" That's right! If something like this is found out by others then we will have so much trouble in the future, I mean…my daughter's marriage talks are going on currently with the mer of the next village. If their family finds out that something like this happened in our village then they will definitely refuse to marry her!" Another woman spoke, she looked rather worried at the prospect of her daughter not getting married but when she saw the corpse of her son, she was rather calm apart from the initial shock she looked fine.     

" I doubt that anyone will marry in our village," said the village head Gu as she rubbed her temples and came to stand beside Yu Dong, she knew that the women wouldn't be listening to her, it was better if their attention was turned to Yu Dong that way at least she will be able to keep the women in check. " This matter… I am afraid that it can not be hidden from the county magistrate, so you all better tell me what happened back then or else we will deal with this situation according to the law of the village…I do not wish to call the elders but if you don't speak then I will."     

Calling the elders would only make the matter worse and then women will all be scolded for hiding things from the village head.      

In the end, they all looked at each other and then swallowed what they wanted to say, the matter was too shameless and embarrassing and they didn't want to tell anyone about it but now it looks like they will not be able to hide it from others.      

So, under the gazes of the other women, one by one the families of the victims started speaking as they told everyone what happened back then.     

  Turns out that the mers of the villages were being stalked long ago but the women of their families were ashamed of the fact that their family's mers were being treated like this, they thought that if the matter of their mers being stalked and sexually harassed was found out by others then they will surely have trouble in finding a match for their mers in the future as for those mers who were married off to the women of this village, their conditions were even worse.      

Instead of blaming the stalker who was behind all of this, they started blaming their mers for attracting the attention of that psychopath. They called them shameless for attracting the attention of the woman and started beating them up but neither of them wanted to tell the village head about this matter because no matter how they saw it…it was the fault of those mers.

" Who asked him to dress pretty and then walk outside in the village? Satisfying me was enough why did he have to go and make himself look good? Wasn't he just asking for it at this point?" said one woman whose husband's corpse was in the pile.     

" Exactly, I told him that there is no need for him to go around attracting the attention of the women of this village but he didn't listen to me what can I do? Moving in the village like that he might as well be naked!" said another.      

The more these women spoke, the more disgusted Yu Dong became, in the end, she couldn't help but say, " So in short you are trying to say everyone is at fault except you, right?"     

The women who were yelling and shouting paused when they heard Yu Dong's voice but they still pursed their lips and stubbornly said, " If not, what are we supposed to do in case they don't listen to us?     

Yu Dong chuckled appreciatively as she shook her head and then turned to look at the crowd of women with a deadpanned expression. " Maybe protect them? You were the woman of the house right?"
