Chapter 377: Are You Hurt
She shut the door after she said that, and Burly Du didn’t stop her.
Liu Duo went back to where she had been earlier and began to brush Bai Xiaojiao’s fur, which had grown really long.
Hei Xiaomeng had grown greatly in size too. Although it still looked like a giant meaty ball when it ran, it was not as cute as it was before. Rather, its ferocity was beginning to show.
With a little more growth, it’d definitely deter others from approaching it.
Ye Liu and Ye Mo were in their ox-cart, returning home from purchasing ingredients, when they came across the umbrella Liu Duo had previously discarded.
“Mo, isn’t that Little Duo’s umbrella? Why is it here?” Ye Liu stopped the cart and went to fetch it.
When he opened it up, several poles had snapped, so it didn’t function well.
Ye Mo furrowed his brow, “It’s hers, alright.”
It had been a plain umbrella when she first bought it. Then she had drawn some paintings on it, so they weren’t mistaken whether it was hers.
They placed the umbrella in the cart and continued on their way home, where Ye Liu planned to ask Liu Duo about it.
How did the umbrella break? And why was it left so far away from home?
When they arrived home, Liu Duo was washing vegetables by the well, while Ye Yang and Ye Ling sat under the roof resting. They had just returned home.
“You’re back,” Liu Duo looked up at them.
Ye Liu nodded, giggling, “Yes, we’ll make a grand feast tomorrow, Little Duo, to celebrate your birthday!”
Ye Mo brought the umbrella to Liu Duo and asked, “My wife, what happened to your umbrella? We found it far away from here.”
Ye Yang and Ye Ling helped Ye Liu unload the items on the cart and bring them indoors.
And then the three of them looked at her.
Liu Duo finished washing the vegetables and casually said, “I went to the schoolhouse looking for Ran Er. I intended to bring him back to celebrate my birthday together. But I met Li Chunmei along the way. She was asking for trouble, and I fought with her. The umbrella broke in the process so I threw it away.”
When the four brothers heard that she had been involved in a fight, they responded at the same time, “Are you hurt?”
They didn’t ask what the fight was about. They were more concerned about her physical condition!
She felt blissful upon hearing that. There she was, with four men who deeply cared about her.
“Of course not. Li Chunmei is the one who’s injured. The umbrella, too.”
“Little Duo, why were you two fighting?” Ye Liu asked as he eyed Ye Mo.
He assumed they had resorted to physical violence because of something to do with Ye Mo. Besides, they all knew that Li Chunmei had a thing for him.
Liu Duo understood their curiosity and told them why and how Li Chunmei had stirred up trouble.
Ye Mo took the bait when he heard it.
He scrunched the umbrella tightly in his hand, and in a rush, he suddenly bolted out the door.
Liu Duo immediately yelled at him, “Mo, where are you going? We’re eating soon.”
Ye Liu put down the items they had bought and rushed out after him.
He knew where Ye Mo was headed, so he followed him.
When the two arrived at Li Chunmei’s house, Ye Mo didn’t even bother knocking as he brought the door down with one swift kick.
The people in the house stared at them.
Li Chunmei was head over heels to see him.
Ye Mo said nothing as he tossed the umbrella at her feet.
“Li Chunmei, how dare you insult our wife? And how dare you fight with her! This umbrella broke because of you, I expect you to pay back!”
Li Chunmei only bore a face of disappointment when she heard that.
On the other hand, Burly Du was immensely glad to see Ye Liu.
