Ye Mo gulped when he realised their eldest brother was glaring at him in a much more horrifying way than Liu had last time. Liu would still laugh on normal occasions, but Ye Yang’s coldness spooked him.
“Yang, it’s perfectly normal for a wife to do stuff like that, and it’s not like I forced her to consummate,” Ye Yang said in an unusually lowered voice.
It was so low that Ye Ling, who was over nby the kitchen entrance, could not hear clearly. Liu Duo and the two brothers were in the middle of the yard.
Liu Duo was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. At a time like this, Mo was still persistent. Although satisfying her husband’s urges was indeed her role, it should be with her consent, right? She would not do it if he was always so overbearing!
“Mo, never force Liu Duo again, for anything, whether it’s to consummate the marriage or anythings else, unless she is willing. Otherwise…” That had been the longest sentence Ye Yang had possibly formed so far, but his mood was undetectable due to the coldness in his voice.
What was left unsaid, Ye Mo could only fill in the blanks by himself. He already knew Ye Yang was very angry.
For as long as he could remember, ever since their had parents died, Yang never talked much. One reason being that he was always in the hills by himself, lacking communication; the other being he was never a fan of dialogue.
Liu Duo heard that and felt over the moon. Pleased, she glanced at Ye Mo. The look of glee on her face was imprinted deeply in his eyes. It was supposed to be her duty! She hummed, turned back, and began moving her snacks into the room.
Ye Yang watched Liu Duo being so carefree and cute that the corners of his mouth began to twitch upwards.
When all was well and Liu Duo was happy again, Ye Ling called out, “Yang, Mo, Duo Er, lunch is ready.”
“Yang, let’s go have lunch,” Liu Duo was pleased with his support.
Other than Ye Liu, only Ye Yang could suppress Ye Mo.
On the dining table, Liu Duo fished out the silver note that was worth fifty tael and also poured out the shining silver from the money. She gladly announced, “Behold, Ling, this is the surprise I promised you!”
Surprise and disbelief were written on his face. He did not expect Liu Duo’s surprise would be a ton of money! This was the first time he had ever seen so much silver. Where did she get it?
Ye Yang’s expression did not change at all – still as blank as always – despite furrowing his brow. Ye Mo was not surprised either. He had known earlier that she should have received a large amount in bonuses, since he had overheard the crowd saying it cost one tael of silver per doll.
“Duo Er, where did you get the money?” No wonder they could buy so many things. Ye Ling was stunned.
Ye Yang wanted to ask this too. He directed a gentle gaze at her.
“I earned this. I worked together with a tailor shop in town…” she said joyfully as she gave them a brief recount.
Then she put the money back and said, “I plan to build a big house, a spacious one, with lights everywhere.”
The three brothers went silent. They wondered if Liu Duo could earn so much, and have so many innovative ideas, would she leave them? They felt that making her a shared wife was belittling her.
Seeing the absence of their joy, Liu Duo’s mood sank too. Wasn’t this something to be happy about? “Why aren’t you guys saying anything? We’re getting a new house, isn’t that great?”
Ye Ling said dully, “Duo Er, you can earn so much. Would you leave us?”
He spoke his mind. He didn’t want Duo Er to leave. He liked her very much.
