Chapter 42: What’s With This Situation?

It was a long night. Some felt sorrow, and some felt joy. Liu Duo and Ye Ling were in a happy mood. They chatted for a while, then went into their dreamland.

But on Ye Liu and Ye Mo’s side, just as Ye Liu said, they couldn’t fall asleep.

The previous night, Ye Liu had hugged Liu Duo while he slept. Although it was torturous, it was much more interesting than hugging a blanket every day and night. Tonight, he could not sleep even though he was hugging a blanket. He thought of Liu Duo’s fragrant body.

Ye Mo would find it even harder to fall asleep. He was angry at himself for doing those things that frightened and hurt her. At the same time, he was also thinking of Liu Duo’s fragrant body.

They had been bachelors for twenty-something years, so suddenly gaining a wife would definitely make them long for her. It wasn’t their fault. After all, the people who were of the same age as they were already had kids who were running around everywhere.

With the thought of going to town later, Liu Duo woke up at about six-thirty. After she got out of bed, she combed her hair and washed up. She then went into the outhouse.

Ye Ling saw his two brothers snoring with haggard faces. He asked, puzzled, “Liu, Mo, what happened to you guys? Didn’t sleep well?

“Nothing. We slept well.” Ye Mo turned his body and went to the side of the well to wash up.

Just then, Liu Duo finished her business and came out of the outhouse. Ye Liu saw Liu Duo with his sharp eyes and went over, “Little Duo, you are so obedient to me and woke up so early. Don’t tell me that you woke up early to see me!”

“Can you not be so egotistical? What did you do last night? You have dark circles under both your eyes.” She pushed Ye Liu away and went beside the well to wash her cloth.

He also followed her to the well, like a stalker, and just so happened to also wash. “Ah, it’s all your fault. Little Duo. You need to take responsibility for me.”

She lifted her head and looked at the gaze from the idiot. She stared at Ye Liu, “What do I have to do with it?”

“I couldn’t sleep well because you weren’t beside me. Not sleeping well caused me to have dark circles under my eyes, and that will affect my gentlemanly face.” Ye Liu spoke very enthusiastically, and Liu Duo listened with a frown. What kind of messed up logic was this?

She was too lazy to care about the nonsensical Ye Liu. She hung up her cloth and then went to the kitchen to accompany Ye Ling with preparing breakfast.

On the dining table, Liu Duo took a bite of rice, then looked at Ye Liu and said, “Liu, are we going to take the ox cart later?” She really didn’t want to walk, as it was too far.

Heading to town again? Ye Mo started to frown as he listened. However, he didn’t flip out.

“Sure. Call me master.” He tore apart a mantou, threw it into his mouth and chewed. He stared at Liu Duo and smiled smugly.

“Humph…” she turned her head and ignored him.

“Ah, I say Little Duo,” he drank a mouthful of white congee to moisten his throat, “You aren’t even willing to call me master. My heart feels very cold!”

She just minded her own business. After she finished her last bite of rice, she put down her chopsticks. She saw that Ye Liu was still eating and rushed him, “Liu, can speed it up? A big man eating so slowly!”

Ye Mo and Ye Ling had also finished eating. They were only waiting for Ye Liu.

Ye Liu was still calm and composed after hearing that. He held the bowl and drank the last gulp of white congee. Satisfied, he put down the bowl and chopsticks.

“Little Duo, you just don’t understand that being quick is not a good thing for a man. Being quick means being not capable, understand?” He raised his eyebrows while looking at Liu Duo.

What kind of twisted logic was this? She did not understand what he said.

Liu Duo, Ye Mo, and Ye Ling all curiously looked at Ye Liu. Their eyes were asking him to clarify what he said and tell them what it meant.

Hehe. Ye Liu laughed mysteriously. “You want to know?”

All three of them nodded together.

Ye Liu turned his head towards Ye Mo and muttered a few words into his ear. He then turned to Ye Ling’s ears and muttered a few words.

Liu Duo looked at the three of them with a stunned expression. What’s with this situation? What did Liu say to them?

Ye Liu laughed in a way that made his face look punchable. Ye Mo and Ye Ling’s faces turned red, and they didn’t dare to look at Liu Duo.
