Guide to raise my cutie husbands

“Or else! Do you think you can hide such a big thing from me?” Old Madam Kong asked with an annoyed expression on her face.

As soon as Old Madam Kong finished speaking, she turned to look at her husband and scolded him fiercely, “I told you back then, that nephew of yours was a troublemaker but you think I am a fool.”

“Look at this!”

Old Master Xiao sobbed even harder, and Master Xu who was the official husband of Old Madam Kong pinched her on the shoulder before hissing at her, “Calm down, the children are here.”

He then turned to look at the daughters of Madam Kong and said to them, “Pili, Li Li, Xiu Xiu..come to grandpa. I missed you three so much,” he then turned to look at the mers who were carrying the young ones. “Come with me, I have prepared some snacks for the children. You can also take some rest.”

Kong Li looked at her nervous mother and turned her attention to Kong Pili who shook her head, grandmother was angry at their mother and from the looks of it, Grandpa Xu was also angry. He usually calmed Grandma down but this time around he was taking them inside.

Seeing that her sister didn’t say anything, Kong Li also followed. As for Kong Xiu, she was too young to understand anything. She heard that Grandpa Xu said that there was food and decided to follow him.

Immediately, the mers and children followed Grandpa Xu, Madam Kong was in trouble.

Old Madam Kong turned and glared at her daughter before snapping harshly, “Is your head filled with goo? Do you even know how deep in trouble you are at the moment? The yamen officers are looking around for every single clue regarding this dark sect.”

“Do you even know what a dark sect is?”

“Of course, I do,” said Madam Kong with an offended voice. “How can I not know?” She already knew that once this matter was known to everyone in the city, they would look at her and her family differently.

Even if she were to divorce Master Xiao, it would not change anything.

She would still be lumped together with him and his sisters.

“If you do know then what were you thinking!?” Old Madam Kong snapped harshly. “The entire yamen— including those who have once respected me are looking at me with a gaze of contempt.”

She paused and rubbed her forehead before asking, “I heard that this Yu woman killed that woman from the cult, is she trustworthy?” A woman who grew her business big and strong in just a year— was she even normal? Did she really have no connections to anyone weird?

“Mother, please don’t doubt Madam Yu,” said Madam Kong with a stern voice. “She is a good woman, in fact, her brother was kidnapped both of the times and one time her cousin was kidnapped.”

“She also suffered many losses and if not for her, my daughters might have…” she trailed off before changing the topic. “Anyway, Sister Dong would never do anything to harm me or my family. More importantly, she is close with Magistrate Li and Marquis Qiao, there is no way she will do anything illegal.”

“She knows the magistrate?” Old Madam Kong asked with slight surprise.

“That’s right. Not only does she know her—I heard that the two of them have a really close relationship,” answered Madam Kong.

After listening to Madam Kong’s answer, Old Madam Kong was no longer suspicious of Yu Dong, if there was something wrong with her then there was no way Magistrate Li would be close to her.

Her suspicions then shifted to Second sister Xiao and Elder Sister Xiao. She questioned her daughter, “How much do you know about your sisters-in-law?” She glanced lightly at Old Master Xiao who was crying.

Old Madam Kong didn’t know if her husband was crying because of what his nephew did or if was he crying because of what happened to his nieces.

In fact, more than Old Master Xiao, it was Old Madam Kong who regretted letting her daughter marry that mer.

The Xiao family was a good and honest family when her mother-in-law was alive but once she died, everything was overturned.

Her sister-in-law was not a good woman but she had a lot of thoughts in that small head of hers.

Master Xiao was the eldest of the siblings. He was also very good-looking, his skin was fair and his temperament was that of a hardworking mer. Her husband also vouched for Master Xiao.

As Madam Kong liked him as well, she agreed to let them marry one another.

What was more, when she went to look for him — Master Xiao seemed hardworking and good at taking care of his siblings. How was she supposed to know that his care only stretched to his siblings?

So, without knowing anything they smoothly got married.

Who knew that after getting married Master Xiao would start getting more and more unreasonable? If that wasn’t bad enough, he miscarried two times.

Of course, the blame fell on top of her daughter’s head, with the Xiao family making trouble, they dared not to say anything more to Master Xiao.

Once he got pregnant and gave birth to two fat and chubby daughters— he became even more proud.

Over the years, her son-in-law had shown every shortcoming possible. Of course, she was not satisfied but her husband pleaded with her and there was also the fact that this matter was in the hands of her daughter.

If she didn’t want to divorce Master Xiao, there was nothing she could do.

But never did she think that Master Xiao would do such a thing! His atrocities had simply surpassed the limits.

If not for the fact that this matter had become impossible to hide, she was certain that her daughter would have hidden it from her.

Only now did she find out that the mer had been using the money that her daughter was earning to support the old Xiao family. Heavens knew how furious she was when she found out the truth.
