Chapter 313: When Men And Women Work Together, They Won’t Get Tired
Liu Duo grabbed her chin with her hands when she heard him and looked at the arrogant looking Ye Mo. However, she didn’t speak.
Getting stared at by her made Ye Mo feel a bit embarrassed.
Through the years, Liu Duo was the only woman he had seen who would dare to stare so obviously at a man in broad daylight while surrounded by so many people!
“What are you looking at? I asked you a question.” Ye Mo looked away and stopped looking at her.
Liu Duo saw his ears had turned red and laughed lightly. She mimicked his tone of voice and said, “None of your business! Do I have to answer, just because you asked me? So what if I don’t want to tell you?”
Ye Mo’s anger started to rise when he heard her, but he still tried to hold it in.
He couldn’t afford to offend this little brat. She was the highest up in the household hierarchy, while he was at the bottom! Sometimes he felt like he was around the level of Hei Xiaomeng. He was really too much of a failure.
Liu Duo saw his face turn black and how he couldn’t let out his anger, even though he was angry. She laughed so brightly that her two dimples appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Ye Mo saw someone who wanted to sell their bamboo shoots. He needed to go do the bookkeeping, so he walked over while huffing and puffing.
When Liu Duo saw this, she muttered in her heart, This fella can also be quite cute sometimes! Cute?
Pfff. Liu Duo started to laugh again when she thought of this. She never would’ve imagined such a violent and overbearing man would also have moments when he was cute.
She got up to go help, so as to avoid Ye Mo scaring the villager. “Little Brother Mo, you do the bookkeeping, and I will pay them the money.”
Ye Mo was famous in the village for being someone who shouldn’t be provoked. He had a bad temper and was quick to resort to violence. People who saw him would move further away from him.
Ye Mo nodded when he heard her. He thought of a phrase he had heard before. When men and women work together, they won’t get tired! He became so happy the corner of his lips started to move up, and he no longer looked unhappy. His anger had also subsided substantially.
She looked at the accounts and saw Ye Mo had followed her way of doing it. She felt that this guy still had some redeeming qualities. He was quite smart, and his handwriting was quite nice as well.
“Little Brother Mo, you should do the bookkeeping in the future as well.” Liu Duo said this to Ye Mo after she gave the villager the money.
There was temporarily no one there when he finished writing the accounts. Ye Mo put down the brush and looked at her. “Me? Do bookkeeping ?”
“Yeah. You are doing it quite well, and you know how to write. When Mr. Liuzi and the others go to the neighboring villages to buy the bamboo shoots, you can go with then to help with the bookkeeping.”
Ye Liu and the others always just memorized it and told Liu Duo when they returned. She would then write them down but doing it like this would inevitably cause some mistakes. A good memory couldn’t beat a brush. Recording it down when it happened would be better.
“But Yang wouldn’t be able to do all of the work on the paddy and vegetable fields by himself.”
“Aren’t we going to hire some temp workers? You don’t need to worry about this.” Liu Duo laughed. Of course, she wouldn’t let Ye Yang tire himself out by doing all the work on multiple paddy and vegetable fields by himself.
Liu Duo told this to Ye Liu when he returned, and he agreed with her.
“Little Duo, what’s with Ran Er and his mother? Are they coming or not?” Ye Liu didn’t see either Liu Ran or Liu Liushi, so he asked.
Upon hearing this, Liu Duo took a deep breath and then recounted what had happened at the Liu family house.
She didn’t really know whether Liu Liushi would come back either. But since they had been so stupidly filial for so many years, they probably wouldn’t return, right? She kept saying she wanted to move out, but she still hadn’t done it!
A bang rang out. Ye Mo slapped the table and then got up. “That old hag actually hit you and Yang because she didn’t get any money? I will go beat them up! They really think they can bully us.”
Little Huzi was woken up by Ye Mo’s sudden outburst and started to cry.
Liu Duo immediately went over, held him up, and softly calmed him down. Little Lian also went over to calm him after she washed her hands.
“My god Mo, I already told you not to speak so loudly. Do you not have ears? See? You made Little Huzi cry.” Ye Liu rolled her eyes at him.
