Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife Chapter 282 - They Were Now From Two Separate Families

Chapter 282: They Were Now From Two Separate Families
The most important thing was that she wasn’t who she appeared to be. Instead, she was a twenty-one-year-old, modern woman from the twenty-first century!
Ye Ling hurriedly explained himself when he heard her, “Duo Er, don’t get angry. That isn’t what I meant. Of course, I don’t want you to leave. I only, I only…”
He could only keep saying ‘only’ but didn’t know how to explain himself to Liu Duo.
“Little Duo, it is normal for the soft-hearted Ling to get worried. After all, it is your mother and brother who are missing. Don’t blame him.”
“Liu, I know. Ling, stop saying ‘only’. I’m not angry, I’m just telling you that you shouldn’t meddle in things we don’t need to meddle in. It would be for the best if we lived our own lives!” Liu Duo smiled at Ye Ling.
Ye Liu felt Liu Duo had said it very well and nodded. It would be for the best if they lived their own lives! They were now from two separate families.
Ye Ling also felt what she said was true when she put it that way. If they meddled, wouldn’t Grandma Liu keep coming to disturb them from time to time? “Okay. I understand what I said was wrong.”
Liu Duo smiled. She actually really liked Ye Ling’s kind heart. However, she also actually felt a bit worried in her heart, but she didn’t show it, because she didn’t want to meddle in the affairs of the Liu family.
Although it was contradictory, she needed to be heartless. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to live a peaceful life!
Li Wazi’s family arrived after breakfast, and that was when the busy day officially began.
Ye Yang and Ye Mo needed to go to work the fields, and Ye Liu and Li Wazi needed to go to town. The only two men left in the house were Ye Ling and Little Huzi.
Aunt Li went beside Liu Duo and said quietly to her, “Little Duo, I heard you hit their grandmother?”
“Yup.” Liu Duo smile and nodded. She didn’t feel that she had done anything wrong!
When Grandma Ye was on her way home, she kept scolding about how Liu Duo was unfilial and had no humanity, and a lot of the villagers heard her.
“You did well. That old hag deserves to be hit!” Aunt Li nodded. She very much approved.
She had disliked Grandma Ye since long ago. Treating Ye Yang and the others so badly, fine, she would ignore it, but she even wanted to move his eldest son and his wife’s graves. She was the one who had no humanity!
Liu Duo laughed aloud when she saw Aunt Li’s expression of righteous indignation. Her laugh was very unladylike. She did not hide her teeth or maintain a reserved look.
At that time, a child who was wearing a small basket backpack arrived at their yard door. He asked timidly, “I…I am here to sell bamboo shoots.”
Hei Xiaomeng started to bark at the child.
Liu Duo made Hei Xiaomeng stop barking, walked over, and brought the child into the yard. “Don’t be afraid. He only knows how to bark, but he doesn’t bite.”
The child nodded and took the bamboo shoots from his backpack to weigh. However, he couldn’t even glance at Liu Duo.
Liu Duo looked at his small figure and casually said, “Ling, you help him weigh it.”
She didn’t know how to measure the weight.
Ye Ling went over to measure it. “Duo Er, it weighs five jins and six taels. Let’s just say it’s six jins.”
“Sure.” Liu Duo recorded it down and gave the money to the child. “Little brother, your bamboo shoots already had their old outer skin removed so it is six wens per jin. There are thirty-six wens here. Go ahead and count them.”
The child took it and smiled. “I don’t need to count it. I believe big sister.”
When Liu Duo heard him, she touched his head and smiled, “When you go back, you can tell your partners that big sister can buy the bamboo shoots you guys dig up at a higher price.” She then gave him another six wens.
She knew their family was not in a good condition just by looking at how skinny and shriveled he was. This was also the first time a child had come to sell bamboo shoots to them.
