Upon hearing him, Liu Liushi first became stunned and then started to smile. However, there were some tears in her smiling eyes.
They were, of course, tears of joy!
Now that her daughter was finally wedded and pregnant, she was finally able to relax her anxious heart!
Liu Liushi congratulated Ye Liu but didn’t forget to exhort him. “Congratulations Little Liu, you are about to become a father. However, I hope you guys will continue to treat Duo Er well and I hope your hearts don’t change.”
Although she was working in town, she did hear about how the matchmaker had tried to match the brothers with other women.
They had rejected her and said they wouldn’t marry anyone else. However, who could say what would happen in the future?
“Mother, you can relax. I know what you are worrying about. However, that will never happen!” Ye Liu smiled earnestly. “Little Duo is our family’s treasure, our boss, the head of our family. The four of us brothers are even worried Little Duo might divorce us! How would we dare to marry someone else?”
Liu Liushi didn’t know if she should cry or laugh when she heard him. Duo Er might divorce them?
How could there be a woman who would divorce her husband in this world?
She had never heard someone say such things before and it was something she had never seen before!
“Mom, where’s dad? Why haven’t I seen him? Did he go somewhere?” Liu Ran asked curiously and looked around.
He should also let his dad know about the good news, right?
“Your father went with the boss to another town to buy some goods. He might only come back tomorrow.” Liu Liushi’s face showed a face of blessing when she mentioned her husband.
“I will tell your father this news when he returns. It will make him very happy.”
Although their lives were hard and their children were not with them, their relationship was still as sweet as when it began.
“Mother, there is something I need your help with.”
Ye Liu didn’t show any trances of pretentiousness in front of Liu Liushi at all.
“As you know, our parents passed away when we were young and only Aunt Ye treated us well. Little Duo needs someone to help take care of the baby in the first one or two months after she gives birth. Aunt Ye is already quite old and although her heart is willing, she might not have the strength. We four brothers don’t have experience with being fathers so can I ask mother to come and live us for a while?
“For interrupting your work, we will naturally increase the compensation for the time you lose at work.”
Ye Liu was very sincere and looked at Liu Liushi respectfully.
Liu Ran was at the side and immediately said, “Mom, you have to come!”
As he spoke, he even pulled Liu Liushi to bend over and he whispered softly next to her ear, “Then, sis will definitely slowly accept you and dad. And we will be able to live together. How good is that!?”
Hearing her darling son saying such mischievous words made Liu Liushi smile. She reached out with her hand and lightly pinched his face.
She looked towards Ye Liu and smiled. “Little Liu, you don’t need to pay me. Taking care of Duo Er and my grandsons and granddaughters is a given. It is also my privilege to do so.”
Back then, it was they who had let Liu Duo down as her parents. Although she was living well now, and her husbands really cherished her, Liu Liushi still felt slightly guilty in her heart.
She no longer hoped she could live with Liu Duo again. The only thing she hoped for was for her to live well. That was enough!
Moreover, their family didn’t lack money right now so they wouldn’t have any financial pressure at all if they hired a nanny to help take care of Liu Duo during the one month after birth where she had to stay indoors. It was nothing but a privilege for him to come to her and hire her.
Liu Ran’s face was full of smiles when he gave the suggestion.
When Liu Liushi heard Liu Duo had also come to town, but that she hadn’t come to the shop, the smile on her face decreased considerably.
