Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife

“Duo Er, childless or not, you’re our loveliest wife, and that’s enough!”

Liu Duo could feel ultimate bliss at their assurance.

In a matter of moments, she changed her decision. She decided to give them a child earlier than she had planned, so that they would have a kid at home who was related to all five of them.

Liu Duo, secretly thrilled, acted as though their replies were passable. She held her chin up and said, “I guess your answers are good enough, otherwise, be prepared to beg for forgiveness!”

The men chuckled at one of their wife’s mischievous moments.

Ye Yang strode quickly on his way to the chief’s house. Liu Ran, who had much shorter legs, had to jog alongside him to keep up.

Ye Yang, who noticed his brother-in-law a little later, stopped and waited for him. “What’s this?”

“Brother Yang, I’m coming with you to get the chief.” Liu Ran was already sweating on his forehead.

What he really wanted to say was, I’ll speak for you when the time comes!

He was very mindful that his eldest brother-in-law would only talk if he had to. He rarely saw him speak more than ten words at a time. Of course, he probably behaved differently in front of his sister!

Ye Yang noticed the glint in his little brother-in-law’s eyes that looked pretty similar to Liu Duo’s. He could tell what Liu Ran was thinking.

He lowered himself to Liu Ran’s height and said, “Come up.”

Without hesitating, Liu Ran accepted Ye Yang’s piggyback ride and climbed onto his strong muscular back, which surely provided a hefty amount of security. Smiling broadly, he said, “Thanks, Brother Yang. Let’s go quickly.”

Yang might appear cold and distant, but he was actually a softie at heart. Liu Ran was not as scared of him now as he was in the beginning.

With Liu Ran on his back, Ye Yang quickened his pace, as though he barely felt the extra weight.

Along the way, Liu Ran talked about his school life. Ye Yang listened intently and only responded several times, each with a few simple words.

They arrived at the chief’s house and were just about to knock on the door when Burly Du opened it. He seemed to be leaving.

“Brother Ye?” Burly Du was surprised to see him, standing there in front of their house like a holy guardian.

The eldest Ye brother he knew was not a talker and also not one to show up uninvited, so Burly Du was truly surprised to find him here.

Ye Yang merely nodded. He was not acquainted with Burly Du and was barely familiar with him. Liu used to work with him in town, and they would return home together.

What he did not know was that Burly Du used to insist on accompanying Ye Liu back to the village!

Liu Ran looked over at Burly Du, who was much stronger and more muscular than Ye Yang. He just stood there, blocking the door.

So Liu Ran took it upon himself to remind the man, “Hey, sir, can you step aside please? Brother Yang and I have urgent business with the chief.”

It was only then that Burly Du stepped back, and realized that Ye Yang was accompanied by a child.

The child referred to Ye Yang as ‘brother,’ so he was probably related to him. He must be Liu Duo’s little brother, and thus the Ye brother’s brother-in-law.

“Thanks.” Liu Ran thanked him politely, and took Ye Yang’s hand as they entered the compound.

He knew he had to take the initiative and speak for his brother-in-law.

Curiously, Burly Du went after them. He asked, “Kid, why are you two looking for the chief? I-Is your Brother Ling at home?”

He spoke with caution, pretending it was just a simple greeting.
