“Why not? You also practice with Yang and the others. Why can’t you do it with me?” Ye Mo was unhappy. If he didn’t know how to do it, then of course, he needed practice. He was doing this for her sake.

Why not? If I said no, it means no. It is none of your business! Liu Duo muttered in her heart and ignored him.

She didn’t get along with him. Why would she act as his practice partner? She would gladly do it if he were Ye Ling!

Ye Mo saw that she didn’t reply. With a scowl on his face, he angrily shoved the firewood in with all his might! Seeing that he almost extinguished the flames, he hurriedly took out the excess firewood.

Unexpectedly, Ye Mo didn’t shout or scream as a response to her non-reply. Liu Duo felt curious and lifted her eyes to look at him. She saw him doing that childish action, and she secretly laughed.

Just as she was about to finish boiling the bamboo shoots, Li Wazi came in to take a look. He saw how she was able to get the bitterness out just by boiling it for a while and then putting in cold water. It was really too miraculous and too simple.

“Sister-in-law, how did you discover this method?” He asked bravely.

“It just came to me! I’m too smart, so I can’t help it. Haha…” Liu Duo didn’t know who the genius was that had discovered this method. It wasn’t her. She was just using the method they had discovered!

“Oh.” Li Wazi nodded his head. He felt that sounded right. Smart people had tons of ideas, so it wasn’t strange. In any case, he wouldn’t have been able to think up this method.

“Take some back later for dinner. This can be stir-fried by itself or with pork. Moreover, it can also be stewed with meat. They all taste delicious. Tomorrow, we will bring some to town to sell.”

“Okay.”

Li Wazi became extremely happy when he thought about how he would be able to get some extra income tomorrow. He also wanted to live a better life. After all, he had a son now, so he had another mouth to feed.

Most of the villagers only earned their income from farming all year round. Besides those who had some artisanal skills, they usually wouldn’t have any other source of income.

After the bamboo shoots were processed, there were a lot of old bamboo shoot skins that needed to be thrown out. Ye Yang and the others were still busy with that task, so Li Wazi went back and helped them clean up after exchanging a few words with Liu Duo.

The kitchen was left with only Ye Mo and Liu Duo again. Ye Mo looked at Liu Duo and saw her watching the pot attentively. She didn’t look like she had any interest in talking with him at all. He let out a loud cough, hoping to get her attention.

Liu Duo pretended that she hadn’t heard him and didn’t respond. Ye Mo frowned, and his heart felt very jittery! She always had something to say to his brothers, but she didn’t have anything to say to him?

When Liu Duo noticed that Ye Mo stopped coughing, she secretly took a peek at Ye Mo’s handsome, jittery face. She felt that he was being weird. Usually, he would get angry very quickly and would say whatever he wanted. When had he become so able to restrain his emotions?

Liu Duo puckered her lip and didn’t think too much of it. With him behaving like this, she felt quite happy with the tranquility.

After they finished with everything, she gave some bamboo shoots to Li Wazi so that he could eat them at home. Tomorrow, they would go to town together.

When Li Wazi got home, he soaked the bamboo shoots he brought back in some water. He would stir-fry and eat them later.

“Gen Er, Xiao Yang and the others are bringing you along to make some money, so you need to be diligent and shouldn’t slack off. Understand? You should do whatever they ask you to do.” Aunt Li said gently to Li Wazi.

It didn’t matter if they made money or not, but the fact that they brought him along really showed the affection between them. When his dad had died, their relatives broke off relations with him and his widowed mother. They would never do something like bring him along to make money.

Ye Yang and the others had even given a tael of silver as a gift. They really treated them like close relatives.
