Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers' Wife

Chapter 578: Such a Hassle With An Umbrella In One Hand

They did not find it unexpected at all. Previously, Grandmother Liu had come looking for them.

“What does that have to do with us? He deserved to be caught!” Ye Mo did not think twice. People like Liu Qing should have seen it coming. He kidnapped Liu Ran for ransom in hopes of getting easy money!

That man was perfectly capable of working and yet he turned to the dark side. Who else would be fated for prison?

Li Wazi said, “Hey, how long do you think Liu Qing will stay in there?”

“Who cares.” Ye Mo ate his food and shot a sideways glance at his friend. “Li Wazi, if you care about him that much, go visit him! Don’t talk to us about him. It’s bothersome just hearing about it.”

He had zero interest in the Liu family and their whereabouts.

Li Wazi pinched his nose in reaction to Ye Mo’s unfriendly tone. “Why would I do that? I’m not familiar with him.”

Ye Mo rolled his eyes at him. Then why did you bring this up?

Little Lian did not see Liu Duo anywhere, so she asked, “Isn’t Sister Duo coming down for breakfast?”

“Little Duo’s still sleeping. We’ll keep it warm for her.” Ye Liu smirked.

Little Lian had no further questions.

It was drizzling after breakfast but that didn’t stop their plans for the day. Ye Liu, Ye Mo, and Li Wazi put on their cloaks and went out in their bullock-cart.

Because of the rain, Ye Yang stayed in one of the rooms on the first floor, where he sorted out the rice from the harvest.

The rain had not stopped by the time Liu Duo woke up. The scent of the bamboo was thicker than usual and capable of making people feel good.

She sat up, stretched her body, and got out of bed.

She put on her clothes, grabbed her comb, and walked to the balcony. She admired the rain falling in the bamboo forest surrounded by a thin layer of mist. It felt like paradise.

So enchanting!

Suddenly, her stomach grumbled, reminding her that it was running on empty.

She felt it and headed downstairs, combing her hair into a bun as she descended the steps.

Hei Xiaomeng was moving around indoors. It approached Liu Duo when it saw her and demanded pets.

“Hei Xiaomeng, be good. I’ll brush your fur later.” Liu Duo smiled as she stroked its head.

Its shiny, black fur felt so smooth with every touch. She liked it.

She placed her comb on the table and opened up her umbrella, bringing it with her to wash up by the well.

In the kitchen, Aunt Li looked out the window and saw her by chance. She called out to Ye Ling. “Ling, Liu Duo’s washing up by the well now. Why don’t you go help hold the umbrella for her?”

It must be such a hassle to do things with an umbrella in one hand.

“Oh, alright. Aunt Li, please watch over the fire for me,” Ye Ling said as he got up, dusting off his hands.

“Sure, off you go.”

Ye Ling left the kitchen and spotted Liu Duo with her umbrella, washing up by the well.

He walked over to her under the rain. “Here, Duo Er, let me help with that.”

Liu Duo quickly let him seek shelter under her umbrella. She asked, rather incoherently, “Ling, did Liuzi and the guys head out to purchase tomatoes in this weather?”

“Yes, they wore their cloaks,” Ye Ling answered gently.

“Oh.”

He watched her brush her teeth, the movement of her hands going to and fro. Curiously, Ye Ling felt his cheeks going red.

He was reminded of what had happened that night. Similarly, they went ‘in and out’ too.

Ye Ling shyly tore away his gaze at the thought, and opted to look somewhere else. He didn’t like that he was having dirty thoughts in the day.
