Ye Ling frowned when he saw Li Chunmei looking at Ye Mo with infatuated eyes.
When Ye Ling heard what she said, he remembered how angry Liu Duo had gotten after she saw Ye Mo carrying Li Chunmei home. It was still fresh in his memory. He hated her! Anyone who made his wife unhappy, he hated them!
Ye Mo complained after he heard her say this again, “Chunmei, I’ve already accepted your thanks. You don’t need to keep thanking me!”
She had said it once after he brought her back. She had said it again just moments earlier, and now, she ran over and said it again. How annoying!
“But I just want to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known what to do on that day.” Li Chunmei saw that Ye Mo spoke to her and replied immediately.
Ye Mo saw that she hadn’t really caught on and decided to ignore her and continue to chop firewood. Ye Ling also ignored her and continued to pick up the firewood.
They filled up the basket backpack and also tied up two bundles. Ye Mo put on the basket backpack and carried the rest of the firewood with both his hands. “Ling, let’s go home.”
“Mo, let me carry these two bundles.” Ye Ling stretched out his hands and wanted to help.
Ye Mo shook his head. “It’s fine. Let’s go.”
He had only wanted Ye Ling to be there and didn’t actually want him to help carry the firewood. This way was, at the very least, better than being alone with Li Chunmei.
Li Chunmei promptly followed them when she saw that they were about to leave.
At this time, Liu Duo, who had arrived home, took a basket backpack and put it on. It felt quite weird, as this was the first time she had put on a basket backpack.
When she arrived at the bamboo forest after rushing there, Ye Yang had already tied up all the bamboo and was waiting for Liu Duo to come back with the basket backpack so that he could load up the bamboo shoots.
“Yang, I’m here. Haaaaah. Going back and forth from here is really quite far.” Liu Duo complained.
Taking a round trip took almost one hour. This really tired her out – especially her legs.
Ye Yang took the basket backpack and placed the bamboo shoots inside. He then put on the basket backpack. He didn’t intend to let Liu Duo carry out these strenuous tasks.
“Let’s go.” Ye Yang carried the bundles of bamboo and led Liu Duo home.
“Okay. I’ll have to have a good rest after we get home. My legs are so sore.” Liu Duo followed beside Ye Yang, looking very gloomy. It would be so good if they’d had cars there to replace walking.
After they arrived home, Liu Duo went and sat on the stool beneath the roof. She patted her legs to relieve the soreness in her muscles.
Ye Ling and Ye Mo were also about to arrive home. Unexpectedly, Li Chunmei was still following them. Ye Ling frowned. “Chunmei, what is your intention that you keep following us? We are about to arrive home and your home is on the other side.”
Ye Mo glanced at her, ignored her, and continued to walk forward. However, he felt very annoyed inside. When did Chunmei also become so shameless? She keeps following us!
“I know. I just want to see that Mo and Ling get home safely.”
Because Ye Mo had brought her home last time, she now also wanted to bring him home. This was called give and take. Wasn’t she good?
They were about to reach the yard door, but Li Chunmei was still following them. Just then, Ye Yang came out to take out the trash. He saw the three of them and looked at them for a few seconds. He then turned around and continued to take out the trash.
When Li Chunmei saw Ye Yang, she smiled and greeted him, “Yang, you came back from hunting?”
Why would Ye Yang, who already spoke very little to his own family, give her attention? He ignored her straight away! He hadn’t forgotten that Liu Duo became unhappy and angry because of her just a few days ago.
Instead, Ye Yang looked at his third brother, Ye Mo, when he heard her. If he didn’t handle these troublesome issues well, it wouldn’t just be Liu Duo who was unkind towards him; Ye Yang would also do the same!
