Chapter 697: How Embarrassing Would That Be?
The sharp-eyed and quick-handed Ye Liu pulled him back. “If Yang wanted to help Little Duo to change the bed back, he wouldn’t have asked us to come down to work! What are you going back to join the liveliness for?”
He knew that the reason why Yang did this was to alleviate Liu Duo’s attitude towards what happened.
He must’ve thought what he and Mo said sounded reasonable. That was the only reason why he would take their side.
After all, once they had babies in the future, they would still need to widen the bed anyway.
When Ye Mo heard him, he thought about it and it seemed like that was indeed the case. If his oldest brother wanted them to change Liu Duo’s bed back to how it was, he wouldn’t have let them leave so easily.
“Liu, it seems that Yang accepted what we said.” Right now, Ye Mo was in an unbelievably good mood. Having Yang’s approval meant it would be impossible for the bed to return to how it was!
Seeing that he no longer stubbornly wanted to head back, Ye Liu immediately gave him a look that said, Is it only now that you understand?! He continued to walk down.
Aunt Li was carrying Little Huzi when she saw them walking down from upstairs. She asked, “Liu, Mo, why did all of you go up? I also saw Yang and Ling go up just now.”
It had to be said that all four of the brothers would usually stay downstairs and rarely go upstairs.
Ye Mo was in a good mood so he did something rare and replied to her with a pleasant tone of voice. “There is definitely a reason why we went up. As for why, you shouldn’t ask too much.”
He didn’t want to tell her such a private thing. Besides, they had even hidden that they were going to widen her bed from their wife and did it in secret. How embarrassing would that be?
Widening the bed in another peasant household was something that would be done in an open and honest way! It was just that their circumstances were a bit unique.
Aunt Li heard him and just looked at him with an honest expression and replied, “Oh.”
If they didn’t want her to ask, she wouldn’t be annoying and continue to chase them about it. Otherwise, it wasn’t like she didn’t know about Ye Mo’s temper.
He turned to Ye Liu and asked again, “Liu, are we still going to purchase tomatoes later?”
“Yeah, we are. Let’s help Aunt Li and the others peel some garlic first. It won’t make much of a difference if we go a bit later,” Ye Liu replied and went to the kitchen to get a basket of garlic out so they could peel it.
Soon after, Li Wazi put Little Huzi into the cradle and peeled garlic with Ye Liu and Ye Mo.
Ye Ling had already walked up to the entrance of the staircase on the third floor when he stopped. “Yang, you head down now. I want to watch over Duo Er so that I can apologize to her immediately after she wakes up.”
His heart felt terrible right now. He wanted to receive Liu Duo’s forgiveness and didn’t want her to feel disappointed and angry with him.
When Ye Yang heard him, he nodded and said to him, “Don’t think too much.”
He felt that Liu Duo’s cold and calm attitude towards Ling wasn’t due to anger. It was just that she never thought Ling would also be one of the ones who took part, so she momentarily didn’t know how she should face Ye Ling.
“Okay,” Ye Ling replied, going back to the room. He stared at Liu Duo, who was on the bed, and spaced out.
Liu Duo was thinking about what had happened and wasn’t asleep. She heard footsteps and guessed it was either Ye Yang or Ye Ling. Otherwise, why else would he stand there and not do anything?
If it were Ye Liu or Ye Mo, their butts would already be sitting on the side of the bed.
She didn’t turn around nor say anything. She wanted to know why he came back to the room and what he wanted to say.
After some time passed, she didn’t hear anyone speak and the entire room was very quiet.
In response, Liu Duo turned around to see who it was. “Ling? Why are you standing there? Are you standing there as punishment?”
“Duo Er, you still aren’t asleep.” Ye Ling’s gentle voice rang out. However, why did he sound so careful when he spoke?
Err…
She had only just lain down for a short while. How could she fall asleep so quickly? Moreover, this incident made her feel annoyed and all her drowsiness had already been chased away by her anger.
