Liu Duo didn’t immediately provide him with an explanation. She looked everywhere, to check if Ye Yang was around, before bringing her attention to him once more.

In between laughs, she said, “Li Wazi, I like your inquisitive spirit, but some things you just don’t need to know that well. Got it? If it isn’t time, it isn’t time, and there’s nothing more to it!”

Li Wazi remained clueless after hearing all that.

But there was one thing he understood. He wouldn’t get a daughter-in-law anytime soon.

What could he do about this?

Li Wazi observed Liu Duo, who was busy teasing Little Huzi, and thought, Obviously she likes kids, but somehow she doesn’t want one of her own yet. Are they not trying for one?

Ye Mo returned downstairs and found his friend staring at Liu Duo, close-up.

He quickly sprinted over to them and patted him on his shoulder, “What’s going on here?”

Liu Duo lifted her head, but ignored him, and then went back to teasing the baby. Li Wazi, on the other hand, ushered Ye Mo aside to speak with him privately.

When they rounded a corner, Ye Mo popped a question before Li Wazi could speak, “Li Wazi, what are you doing so close to my wife?”

Although he knew Li Wazi was harmless, he still didn’t like the idea of other men – besides his brothers and himself – getting too close to her!

Er…

Li Wazi paused before answering, “It’s nothing. I was just asking her when she’s planning to have a baby…”

Ye Mo instantly cut in, “And what did she say? Tell me.”

Li Wazi paused again when Ye Mo suddenly got excited, but he eventually told him the truth, “She says it isn’t time yet, but she wants a kid when the time comes.”

And so, Ye Mo found himself disappointed again.

Li Wazi couldn’t tell that Ye Mo’s spirits had been deflated, as he continued, “Mo, do you think there’s a right time when it comes to having a kid? I don’t understand. I thought we just have to keep doing it, and eventually we’ll have a kid, right?”

At that point, a blush began to settle on Li Wazi’s face.

When Ye Mo didn’t reply, Li Wazi gave him a shove, “Say something, Mo. You and your brothers should keep it up. You’ll have a kid eventually.”

Ye Mo suddenly spoke up, “Don’t just keep thinking about you and your daughter-in-law! My wife will only bear to sons! You, on the other hand, better bear some daughters for us!”

What a friend he was! As though Ye Mo didn’t know what he was up to!

Li Wazi merely scratched his nose, I want a daughter-in-law for my son, but was I that obvious about it just now?

He managed a chuckle and said, “Sure, my wife and I will give you a daughter-in-law. Are you happy now?”

“Much better!” Mo said, and marched towards Liu Duo.

He sat on the stool, which had previously been occupied by Li Wazi, and toyed with the baby as well. Then, he looked at his wife, who was having a good time.

“Dear, do you think Little Huzi is a bit fat?”

Fat?

She shot him a look, “You’re the fat one! Little Huzi’s chubby and cute, not fat!”

And then she kissed Little Huzi on his chubby cheek.

The baby laughed even more, and it was infectious, because Liu Duo caught it.

At that moment, Ye Mo really wished he was the kid, just so that his wife would kiss and adore him too.
