Chapter 807: Never Expect Too Much!
He did not understand it. Why was his brother meddling in other people’s business?
Ye Yang examined the two. They looked like they had been involved in a fight.
He did not know what happened, but since his brother wanted to give them a ride, he would not reject it.
They had been delayed for quite a while; a little more would not matter.
“Mo, can you not scold me? I’m scared of you.” Ye Liu feigned fear and lightly thumped Ye Mo’s shoulder.
“Just for another hour or two, alright, Mo? I’m sure you won’t mind.”
Ye Mo’s jaws twitched at his brother’s pretense. Speechless, he pulled a long face, and got on the cart.
He was obviously mad at Ye Liu but he could not let it show, so he held it in and said nothing more.
Ye Yang just shook his head. He swore his brothers could behave like children sometimes.
“Let’s go.” He waved at the two. Time was ticking.
Ye Liu chuckled when Ye Yang showed his support. He waved at the strangers. “Come on up then, or do you really want to take your time and walk back?”
He hopped onto the cart too and sat in the driver’s seat.
He had said he would take them for free, but the two still seemed hesitant.
Impatiently, Ye Mo muttered, “Liu, since they don’t want to join, do you intend to wait until daybreak? Get going!”
The two could feel the fury in his words, so once again they shook their heads. “There’s really no need, I can slowly walk back myself. Thanks.”
“I’ll walk too.”
They could feel that Ye Mo was obviously difficult to get along with. They would rather turn down the free ride and endure the pain.
“Alright then.” Ye Liu surrendered to their determination.
If he delayed any longer, that short-tempered brother of his would likely explode, so he steered the bullock cart away from town and towards home.
“Liu, what happened in town? Who’s been captured? There were so many soldiers and guards.” Ye Mo asked what had been on his mind.
That was the reason Liu had been trapped in town for so long.
Ye Liu frowned slightly at the question, puzzled. “I’m not so sure myself. Perhaps someone committed a serious offense, otherwise, they wouldn’t need to dispatch so many guards.”
“Whatever. It’s got nothing to do with us anyway.” Ye Mo looked at the darkness up ahead. He just wanted to get home in one piece.
Ye Yang gazed at the flame in the lamp and slowly spoke. “Don’t cause trouble. Don’t expect riches. Just live our days properly.”
Ever since their parents had died so many years ago, his long-time wish had always been for the family to stay healthy and live well.
He did not dare to expect too much!
“Yes, that’s also our goal, right, Mo?”
“Right.”
Ye Yang and Ye Mo sat on either side of Ye Liu, each holding onto a lamp to brighten their way.
Along the journey, the brothers talked to one another, and about an hour later they finally reached home.
From the fourth floor, Ye Ling and Liu Duo could hear Hei Xiaomeng barking. The three men must have returned!
“Liu, what happened in town? You guys got back really late!” Ye Liu frowned with concern.
He held Liu Duo’s hand, while Liu Duo held an oil lamp. The two had rushed down to greet them.
Liu Duo might not have asked, but she had clearly been worried.
