Liu Duo stood up and picked up the plate with only meat left on it. She gave the meat to the four brothers, placing a piece of meat in each of their bowls. She also gave herself some of it.
“This is not allowed in the future. If we have meat we should eat it together. I don’t want special treatment.” She picked up the bowl and didn’t speak anymore.
The four brothers looked at the meat in their bowl and were stunned for a second. And without prior agreement among each other, they all started to eat.
After they finished lunch, Liu Duo went back to the room to have an afternoon nap. The four brothers were having a discussion in the other room.
Ye Mo told the two older brothers the things that happened since Liu Duo was bought and brought over. “In the future, we will each take turns every night. This way, we won’t have to worry about her escaping.”
“Mo, Duo Er won’t run away. You shouldn’t speak like that.” Ye Ling believed Liu Duo.
Ye Yang was silent and did not utter a word. Ye Liu laughed, “It is normal for her to want to run away. After all, we are depriving her. ”
If it weren’t for Liu Duo’s family, how would it have been possible for her to become their shared wife? Ye Liu’s attitude towards the escape incident was very tame.
“Liu, what deprivation? This is a wife that was bought with money borrowed from our third uncle and with all of our savings. If she runs away, who will we find to bear us children?”
“If blame is to be given to anyone, then blame that granny and her good-for-nothing mom and dad! In any case, she has entered our household, and she is not allowed to run away. Otherwise, I will break her legs! It is fine, as long as she can still help us give birth.” Whenever Ye Mo mentioned Liu Duo running away, his voice would get louder in agitation.
The other three brothers could only shake their heads at Ye Mo’s agitation. Ye Mo’s temperament was simply aggressive.
Ye Liu laughed, “Ye Mo, you should calm down. If you are this fierce, be careful that she might not consummate the marriage with you.”
“Duo Er said she won’t run away again in the future. Moreover, she even let us eat meat during lunch. Duo Er is very nice.” Ye Ling believed in Liu Duo’s words a hundred percent.
With all that money they spent and the debt they had to carry in order to buy this wife, it would be a double whammy if she did run away and a huge blow to the Ye family. No wonder Ye Mo tended to be a bit anxious.
“Okay. I feel that she won’t run away again. Ye Mo cannot speak about breaking legs in the future. You should treat her more warmly and your temper needs to change,” Ye Liu said seriously. His feelings about Liu Duo wouldn’t be wrong.
Ye Mo’s face was unhappy. “I understand.”
“Okay.” Ye Liu turned his head to face Ye Yang and then said, “Yang, you should sleep with Little Duo tonight. Each person gets one night. That is quite fair.”
“As for consummating the marriage, we will go by age. Yang, you go first. But from what Ling said, Little Duo’s period came. Yang, you need to wait for a few days.”
Ye Yang nodded and said okay, and then didn’t say anything else. Just like that, Liu Duo’s sleeping place for each night, and the arrangement for the consummation were officially decided.
It was still early when Liu Duo woke up from her afternoon nap. She stretched her body, tidied her hair, and went to the yard.
She saw Ye Yang sitting on the wooden stool and writing something with bamboo. She didn’t see Ye Liu and Ye Mo, nor did she know what Ye Ling was busy with in the kitchen.
She went to Ye Yang’s side and squatted down. “Yang, what are you making?”
“A pack basket,” he said in a low voice, which engineers love.
“Oh.” She initially wanted to chat more, but she saw Ye Yang only cared about working on what was in his hands in silence, with his head down, and with an emotionless expression, so she didn’t want to say too much.
Liu Duo acted tactfully and didn’t bother him. She got up and went to the outhouse and then went to find Ye Ling. She prepared to go out to walk around. She didn’t make it yesterday, so she definitely had to go today. Otherwise, she felt like she would go crazy from staying in the house every day.
The ancient times didn’t have phones, computers, or televisions. Having nothing to do was difficult to bear. There also weren’t any other types of entertainment. Would she go crazy after a long time?
