“Good morning, Yang.” Ye Liu was sweeping away the bamboo leaves. When he saw Ye Yang, he was like a bee that saw a flower.
Ye Yang carried himself tall and straight when he walked. When he heard the words Ye Liu spoke with amusement and saw that symbolic pretentious smile of his, he knew his hooliganish second brother was teasing him again!
Good morning? What time was it already?
Ye Yang cast a glance at him and went straight beside the well to get a wooden bucket. He then went to the kitchen to get some hot water as he needed to get some water up to Liu Duo.
“Yang, Little Duo and you woke up just in time for breakfast.” Ye Ling looked at his oldest brother.
Ye Mo glanced at the bucket in Ye Yang’s hand and didn’t say anything. He knew what the hot water Ye Yang took would be used for. He was able to guess it without having to ask.
“Okay.” Ye Yang nodded and walked over to the side and took the hot water from the stove. “Ling, keep some of the breakfast warm.”
He knew Liu Duo wouldn’t come down and eat breakfast for at least one and a half hours so he would naturally need to keep the food warm for her.
When Ye Ling heard him, he looked at his oldest brother as he took the hot water. He stared blankly for a while before finally realizing why Ye Yang had said that.
His face blushed slightly. “Oh, I understand.”
After he finished getting the hot water, he went to the well again and mixed in some cold water so the water would be at the right temperature. Ye Yang took a towel and then carried the bucket of water upstairs. When he passed by Ye Liu, he didn’t speak to him. He showed the look of a cold dignified and tyrannical chairman!
Ye Liu, on the other hand, was smiling giddily and he took the initiative to ask, “Yang, are you and Little Duo going to wash up upstairs today?”
When Ye Yang heard him, he didn’t even look at him and just let him see the back of his tall and straight body.
Liu Duo was already asleep when Ye Yang arrived on the fourth floor. He patiently wiped the sweat from her body and changed her into a clean dudou, shirt, and pants. She was so tired that she didn’t wake up even when she was rolled around.
Ye Yang looked at Liu Duo as she slept deeply and he planted a kiss on her fair forehead. He put a blanket to cover her tummy before turning around and going downstairs to wash up.
They waited for him to finish washing up before the four brothers started eating breakfast underneath the roof…
“Ling, if Little Duo still hasn’t come down in half an hour, you should go and ask her to eat breakfast. Going back to sleep after eating is better than having an empty stomach.” Ye Liu put down the chopsticks and spoke to Ye Ling.
He couldn’t be sure how much longer Liu Duo would sleep in. After all, his oldest brother had woken up so late today. They had definitely exercised for a long time!
Ye Ling nodded. “Okay, I understand.”
Just as they finished eating breakfast, Li Wazi and his family came one after the other and the workday officialy began.
When it was time for Ye Liu and the others to go purchase the tomatoes, they drove the bullock-cart out the door. Ye Yang and Old Liu, on the other hand, brought their farming equipment and went to the vegetable field. Aunt Li and the others went to the kitchen to produce the tomato sauce. Only Ye Ling was left to wait in the yard for the villagers who would come to their house and sell tomatoes.
After a few villagers came and sold their tomatoes and left, Ye Ling carefully examined if he’d written anything wrong. A shadow suddenly appeared in his sights. When he lifted his head, he saw that it was actually Li Chunmei.
Why is she here? Ye Ling felt very puzzled. At the same time, he also put up his guard.
“Ling, I am here to sell tomatoes.” As Li Chunmei spoke, she even lifted up the bamboo basket in her hand so he could look at it.
Err…
Ye Ling looked at her, frowned, and didn’t reply immediately.
Upon seeing this, Li Chunmei called him again. “Ling?”
She knew Ye Ling had a very negative opinion of her now. However, she wouldn’t give up on her goal so easily!
