Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife

He could not figure out how or when he had offended her.

He woke up, washed, had his breakfast, and went to town. He came back for lunch and then went to town again. In between these times, they barely said anything to each other, and right now they had barely said anything either.

It was fine when he had not mentioned it but, now that he had, Liu Duo swiped his hands away and said, “You think about it!”

Hands folded at her chest, she marched away in large strides.

Er…

If he knew what the problem was, would he have needed to ask?

The small smile disappeared from his handsome face. He could not figure out what had gotten into Liu Duo for her to act so petulantly!

It was exactly what an old saying foretold: A woman’s heart was like a needle in the sea. Unpredictable!

Hei Xiaomeng saw her go and rushed to her heels. It did not know where she wanted to go but it also did not want to lose sight of her.

Shaking his head, Ye Mo ran ahead and caught up too. He forcefully grabbed her by the waist. “Wife, exactly how old are you?”

Liu Duo twitched her jaw and rolled her eyes, choosing to ignore his ridiculous questions. She twisted her body and tried to swipe his hand away, but she seemed to be stuck to him like superglue. She could not get away, so she gave up and walked on alongside him.

She mumbled quietly, has this fool forgotten my age? How typical!

Ye Mo did not get mad despite being ignored. He continued talking. “My wife, I think you’re like a child, what with you throwing a tantrum every once in a while.

“…”

You’re the child, so childish and domineering and violent and roguish! Liu Duo complained in her mind, still ignoring him.

Not getting a response, Ye Mo proceeded to talk to himself as he nagged on. “Wife, you really ought to change this tantrum-throwing habit of yours. You’ll be a mother soon. You have to be more mature…”

He was very confident now that in the coming year Liu Duo would give birth to a healthy baby!

Ever since finding out that Liu Duo was not against having a baby, all they had to do was work extra hard and they would get to meet their kid eventually.

Liu Duo listened to him nagging by her side. It was like having a mosquito constantly buzzing by the ear, and there was no way to get rid of it. Her jaws twitched, and she was distraught.

She suddenly realized he could be quite the chatterbox.

She pinched his arm that was still holding onto her waist. “Mo, get away from me, and shut up!” She shot a look at him. “Look at you, leaning and holding onto me in broad daylight. Have you no shame?”

Mo used to say that to her quite frequently, and so she returned the favor!

They had managed to walk out of the bamboo forest and stepped onto the wide, open road. Several villagers were seen rushing home or to other places.

Those who saw them would whisper among themselves. They did not dare to discuss loudly for fear of Ye Mo’s grumpiness.

“What does shame have to do with it? I’m holding onto my wife. It’s normal!” Ye Mo lowered his head to look at Liu Duo. He smirked.

The past was in the past. He had long been brainwashed by Liu Duo to accept that there was nothing disgraceful about their closeness. Furthermore, she was like that with Yang, Liu, and Ling as well.

Liu Duo rolled her eyes and gave up on humoring him.

After all, debating a person with such thick skin was akin to asking for trouble!

Ye Mo’s lips curved into a broad grin at her compromise.

And so, the two of them walked towards their vegetable patch. Along the way, Liu Duo responded to Ye Mo’s nagging whenever she felt like it.
