Chapter 192: Is A Bit Too Obvious
Li Wazi was not surprised by the fact that only Liu Duo knew how to do this! After all, this was something that had never been done before.
“Of course! Why don’t you take a look at who Little Duo’s husband is?” Ye Liu became so smug that he could have flown up to heaven. Having his wife praised was the same as being praised himself.
Ye Yang and Ye Mo ignored Ye Liu being smug. They were busy digging the bamboo shoots. However, they also thought their own wife was awesome! Li Wazi, on the other hand, smiled and nodded. He felt that what Ye Lui had said was certainly true.
The villagers who saw Liu Duo and Ye Ling would point and stare at them. However, Liu Duo ignored them. Ye Ling also did something he normally wouldn’t do – he didn’t withdraw himself. However, his handsome face turned red, and the palm of his hand that was holding Liu Duo sweated a bit.
“Wow, you guys dug so much!” When they arrived, they saw that they had dug up a big pile. Liu Duo was very happy. Her eyes sparkled as if she were looking at money!
They all turned when they heard her and stopped working when they saw that Liu Duo and Ye Ling had arrived.
“Little Duo, you are here. I dug so many bamboo shoots that my hands are sore. Help me rub them please.” Ye Liu walked over like a little kid. He leaned against Liu Duo and swayed his slender hands in front of Liu Duo.
She grabbed the swaying hands in front of her and commented, “Tsk, this soft and tender claw gets tired and sore so easily after only doing a little work. Yang, why don’t we chop it off and boil it to eat. It is just pretty and of no use anyway! Yang, don’t you agree!”
When Liu Duo went over, Ye Yang eye’s were only on her – her each and every move.
Ye Yang heard Liu Duo tease his own brother, nodded his head, and replied, “Yeah.”
Liu Duo threw Ye Liu’s hands away when she heard Ye Yang agreed with her. She walked forward a few steps and pulled his arms. She said with a smile, “Yang, it turns out you also know this kind of humor.”
Stoic Ye Yang looked at Liu Duo, who was smiling as colorfully as a flower, and his mood improved significantly.
Li Wazi watched their interactions and then glanced over at Ye Mo. He walked over, nudged him lightly, and said, “Mo, right now, I am even more certain that you are your wife’s least favorite. She hasn’t even looked at you since she came. After all, you are still her husband.”
This difference in treatment is a bit too obvious! Li Wazi’s heart felt unbalanced in Ye Mo’s stead.
Ye Mo was already unhappy, but what Li Wazi had said made him even more unhappy. However, he held his anger in and didn’t express it. Ye Mo scowled and dug even harder for the bamboo shoots.
Liu Duo and Ye Ling helped to put the bamboo shoots into the basket backpack.
One of the villagers, who was there to chop firewood, saw them and felt puzzled. The villager asked, “Ye brothers and Li Wazi, why are you guys digging up so many bamboo shoots?”
Ye Liu, who had a tender bamboo leaf in his mouth, said, sounding like a hooligan, “Hah, we definitely will have uses for them if we are digging them up! Otherwise, it will be unbearable if we eat too much of it. As for the use, hehe, you can take a guess!”
Would I ask you if I knew?
Since they hadn’t given a straight answer, the villager didn’t ask anymore. After all, bamboo shoots were bitter and acidic, so no one liked to eat them. If they wanted to dig them up, then let them! He went away after chopping firewood.
Ye Yang and the others only stopped working when the basket backpacks were filled to the brim. All five of them carried fully loaded basket backpacks. It was a huge harvest.
“Let’s go and bring these back. We will come back to dig more next time.” Liu Duo put the last of the bamboo shoots into the basket backpack.
Ye Liu put on the basket backpack and went over to hold Liu Duo’s little hand. “Little Duo, come. Liu will lead you back home.”
Tsk, it’s not like I’m a child! Lead me home? Liu Duo rolled her eyes at him but she didn’t remove his hand. Instead, she also held his hand and they walked home together.
She liked this feeling – the feeling of going home while holding hands with someone she liked.
