Chapter 370: You’re Handsome, Like A Cricket
The three rode on their ox-cart as they visited other villages. They gathered a bit more bamboo than usual.
Ye Mo repeatedly checked their accounts book on the ride back to the village, hoping that he didn’t miss anything.
They were almost home when they came across Liu Duo walking on the other side of the road, her back facing them.
“Little Duo…”
“Darling…”
They shouted fervently at her in a bid to win her attention.
So, how did they know the woman walking with her back facing them was really Liu Duo?
She was the only person in the village who liked wearing clothes with a light purple tone. Light-colored clothes could be easily stained, so many villagers didn’t like wearing them. Even Ye Xuan would only wear them when the new
year came around.
This time she was wearing light blue, and she had her hair tied in a bun that was distinctively her style. Complete with her wonderful figure, her husbands could definitely recognize her in a heartbeat!
She heard familiar voices calling her and turned around, “Oh, you’re back! Why don’t you get home first? I’m going over to see Yang for a bit.”
Ye Mo jumped down from the cart and tossed the sack to Li Wazi, “You guys go back, I’ll check on Yang too.”
Pffft, Ye Liu chuckled.
He realized that Ye Mo had gotten increasingly attached to Liu Duo after their consummation.
Ye Mo got red in the ears when he heard Ye Liu’s teasing laughter, and he quickly walked towards Liu Duo.
Liu Duo, who was well on her way, looked sideways to find Ye Mo approaching her.
She shot him a glance, “Mo, why are you following me?”
Shouldn’t he be resting at home?
“I want to check on Yang. Can’t I?” He retorted as he walked beside her, shoulder to shoulder.
Liu Duo twitched her lips and stayed further away from him, gosh, there he goes, acting cool again. Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re up to!
He noticed she was avoiding him intentionally. He wasn’t pleased and forcefully dragged her hand while marching forward.
Bewildered, she looked down at where their hands met. This was the first time they had held hands, wasn’t it?
She looked up at him, “Mo, I think you…”
I think you’ve become very attached to me? She couldn’t finish her sentence because Ye Mo cut in midway.
“You think I’m handsome? I think I’m very handsome!” He filled in the blanks, not looking at her as he walked on.
What?
She looked at him sideways. Did she hear that right?
This fool was quite narcissistic.
“Yes, you’re handsome, like a cricket!” She joked.
Ye Mo didn’t get angry. A smile curled on his lips, and he felt really great.
She could say whatever she wanted, as long as she was happy.
Ye Yang was hard at work by the time they arrived at the farm.
The weather had gotten hotter, so the men had taken off their shirts and left them aside. They worked in their short vests and pants curled up to their knees.
Ye Yang’s strong chest muscles, biceps, and calf lines were apparently on display, making Liu Duo blush and making her heart race.
Although she had felt them before, she had never really seen them.
Ye Mo saw her going red and began fanning her with his hand, “My wife, are you feeling hot?”
“Ah? Oh, a bit,” She said, fanning herself too.
Ye Yang stopped working when he saw them. He waved at his workers, instructing them to take a rest.
“Why did you come?” He looked at his family, wiping away his sweat as he walked towards them.
He didn’t want Liu Duo to come out in this heat.
It was such a simple action, but because he was the one doing it, she was immediately mesmerized.
