Chapter 680: Looks Are Inborn, No One Can Control That
Then she smiled at Dongfang Ming. “Dongfang, draw me a bit prettier, alright?”
She looked great to begin with, but who would not like to be more beautiful?
After all, everyone appreciates beauty.
Right then, Wang Xiangyun muttered softly, “Can weeds grow into flowers?”
Beside her, Dongfang Ming heard it and frowned.
He never denied her beauty, but Wang Xiangyun’s sense of superiority over Liu Duo made him sick.
Looks are inborn. No one can control that.
Furthermore, he felt that, though Liu Duo might not be the prettiest one of all, she had a certain charm that attracted others to her!
He looked away before smiling at Liu Duo. “But you look very nice already, Little Duo. You don’t need me to add anything else.”
“That’s right, Duo Er. You’re very pretty,” Ye Ling seconded.
In his mind, there was no way his wife did not look good. She might be a little sassy, but that was what made her so endearing.
If Liu Duo knew that Ye Ling viewed her as ‘a little sassy,’ what would she think?
Liu Duo winked at Ye Ling as she giggled. “Of course, that’s a must! Haha…”
Very confidently, Liu Duo went to take Ye Ling’s previous seat with a smile on her face.
Dongfang Ming also wasted no time. He took up his brush and got to work.
Over at the Ye household, Ye Yang left for the farm with his equipment shortly after breakfast.
“Liu, I’m going with Li Wazi to purchase tomatoes today. You, on the other hand, will go to town and buy some planks, then come home and widen our wife’s bed before Yang finds out. Otherwise, he’ll put a stop to it,” Ye Mo said, consulting with Ye Liu.
When Ye Liu and Liu Duo left, they said they would be back in the afternoon. But what if they came home at noon? They would have to forfeit their plans if that happened, and so Ye Mo believed they had no time to waste!
Li Wazi, who had overheard everything, popped a question before Ye Liu could respond. “Mo, why do you two plan to widen Liu Duo’s bed all of a sudden? And why might Yang stop you?”
Ye Mo’s smug look fell from his face. He eyed him coldly, “Why are you asking so many questions! Hurry up, let’s move out now!”
This was a secret between brothers. How could Mo possibly tell him? Li Wazi was not sharing their wife.
Er…
Bearing a clueless expression, Li Wazi thought, you don’t have to be so mean just because you don’t want to talk about it. I swear, you’re always like dynamite.
Ye Liu was cleaning his teeth with something like a toothpick after he had his fill. He commented mischievously, “Li Wazi, for a man, you’re quite nosey, just like the average woman. Take your things and get moving.”
And then Liu passed him a sack.
Inside it were the coins they used for change. They would need them when they purchased tomatoes from the townspeople. Usually, Ye Liu carried it.
“Liu…”
Ye Mo looked at his brother, about to repeat his instructions about the planks, but he was interrupted.
“I’ve got everything covered, now off you go.”
Ye Liu went upstairs after he said that. He had to get some silver to buy the wood.
After receiving the answer he wanted, Ye Mo took hold of the sack carrying his writing equipment, called for Li Wazi, and the two of them set out in their bullock-cart.
…
Wang Xiangyun stared at the ‘Liu Duo’ slowly forming on the paper, her jealousy growing at an inexplicable rate.
“Brother Ming, you’re really good at this,” Ye Ling could not help but praise.
The drawing looked very much like the real person!
