Chapter 209: Very Unhappy
Liu Duo was very happy to see all the brothers were in agreement. If family members had conflict in opinions, it was hard to maintain peace and harmony in the household!
“Also, I received bonuses from the shop today. We spent several taels buying necessities, so we can start building the house now,” Liu Duo smiled victoriously as she said this.
With the house built, they could start their own little business, and she could stay at home all day without a worry in the world! Over the years, she would have a few kids and four handsome husbands at her beck and call.
They would give her massages and pour tea for her, and if anyone displeased her, she would get her whip out! She would get the royal treatment, hehe. Better not get too comfortable! Haha…
At that thought, she started chuckling, which quickly grew to laughter.
Seeing her laugh out of the blue, Ye Liu smirked, “Little Duo, what’s so funny? You’re cackling like a pervert!”
The other three brothers also looked at Liu Duo, who was laughing like a fool, and thought it was weird. What was she laughing at? It was true she ought to be happy about building a house, but this was exaggerating, wasn’t it? Ye Liu said aloud what they were all thinking.
“Nothing. Let’s eat. We’ll go over to the village head later and tell him we want to build a house in the bamboo forest.” She gave each of them a piece of vegetable using her chopsticks.
Of course she wouldn’t tell them what she was laughing about. She wasn’t an idiot. She would keep this to herself!
Ye Liu wouldn’t ask anymore questions if she wouldn’t answer. As long as she was happy…
After the meal, Ye Liu passed the money bag to Liu Duo, who took it and retrieved two hundred wen before handing the rest over to Ye Mo. “Mo, take this to Li Wazi.”
But Ye Mo demanded, “We go together!”
If he had to go, he wasn’t going alone.
“You can go yourself. It’s not like we’re going to a fight! I’m going with Liuzi to visit the village head. We’re heading in opposite directions,” Liu Duo said patiently. Ye Ling had asked her to be nicer to Ye Mo, and she was bearing that in mind.
Liu Duo had chosen Ye Liu to go with her to meet the village head, because he had a way with words and was quite the charmer. Ye Yang, stoic and aloof, would be disappointed, and Ye Ling wouldn’t know what to say.
“Well, you’re not looking for a fight with the chief either, so why does Liu get to go with you but I don’t!” He didn’t like it. Not one bit!
Liu Duo furrowed a brow at Ye Mo, who was being unreasonable, “What are you yelling for? If I tell you to go, just go. Otherwise….” She grabbed the money bag from his hand and passed it to Ye Yang, “Yang, you bring this to Li Wazi.”
Ye Yang eyed Ye Mo before nodding and accepting the errand. He didn’t know why Ye Mo seemed to have lost his mind! He was always arguing with Liu Duo over very small matters.
“Ling, you stay at home, and help organize the things we bought.” After making all the arrangements, Liu Duo held hands with Ye Liu as they went off to the chief’s house.
Ye Yang left for Li Wazi’s place. He found that life had become different since having a woman in the house. Everything had its place and was in perfect order.
Only Ye Mo and Ye Ling remained at home. Ye Ling furrowed his brow and said, “Mo, Liu is very sociable and chatty, so Duo Er chose him to go with her to talk the chief. And she chose you to take the money to Brother Li. There’s nothing wrong with that. Why did you yell at her?”
“Duo Er spoke to you kindly. When you raise your voice, of course she’s not pleased. Mo, I thought you’d changed a lot recently. You’re not as impulsive to her anymore, but what happened today? Mo, you like her, right? So why are you always so fierce towards her? Or rather, do you not like her, because you like Chunmei?”
