Liu Duo found Li Wazi in the yard. She looked around but the four brothers were nowhere to be seen. Frustrated, she wondered where they had gone.
“Brother Li, where is everyone?” she asked Li Wazi.
Li Wazi was changing Little Huzi’s diaper when he heard his name. He looked over at her and replied frankly, “Ling brought everyone else upstairs. They might be discussing something.”
Er…
Liu Duo assumed, based on that answer, that Ye Ling wanted to tell his brothers what she had told him, so he brought them all upstairs for a meeting!
“Oh, alright then.” Liu Duo nodded in acknowledgment.
She strode all the way to the third floor. They should be in one of the rooms there.
When she got to the stairway between the second and third floor, Liu Duo, on a whim, began to tiptoe as she proceeded upwards.
She heard voices ing from Ye Yang’s room. She approached quietly and leaned against the door. She pressed an ear against it, hoping to eavesdrop but, just as she was about to do that, the door opened.
Caught off guard, Liu Duo stumbled through the opening. Ye Yang, the one who opened the door, grabbed hold of her. “Eavesdropping?”
The sound of his dreamy voice drifted above her. She did not have to guess to know it was Yang who had opened the door.
Caught in the act, Liu Duo blushed awkwardly.
Yet, deep down, she retorted. This is my house. Why do I have to eavesdrop? Does anything else make sense anymore?
She cleared her throat as she stubbornly pushed herself away from Ye Yang, “Unhand me!”
She went on to plain about them. “The four of you are having a private meeting behind my back, aren’t you? I’m not family, is that it? And you dare say I’m eavesdropping? For god’s sake, this is my house! How dare you…”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Ye Liu’s laughter.
Pffft, haha…
Listening to his wife’s plaints, he could not resist laughing out loud.
Ye Ling smiled too. His wife seemed so cute right now.
Ye Yang watched Liu Duo unleash her anger, yet he had nothing but adoration for her. His lips curled up slightly, adding a little bit of warmth to his normally icy and stoic face.
Ye Mo also burst out laughing, the dimple on his right cheek making its appearance. “Dear wife, you should have one hand on your hip and the other pointing at us. That’s how you show your dissatisfaction!”
Er…
His words left her stunned.
Ye Liu laughed even louder.
When Liu Duo came to, she finally understood what Ye Mo meant. This rascal was teaching her how to scold like a shrew on the streets, with one hand on the hip and the other pointing at the audience!
Liu Duo’s jaw twitched when she realized Ye Mo had been messing with her.
Furiously, she marched towards him. Her hands directly went to pull at his cheeks, and while doing so she said, “You want me to bee a shrew, do you? Then let me do that to you! If you have nothing good to say, shut up! No one’s going to think you’re a mute!”
Ye Mo seemed to be enjoying the abuse though.
He stretched his hands out and scooped Liu Duo closer to him. He let her sit on his lap and chuckled. “Dear wife, you’re pregnant now, don’t get mad so quickly like that. Otherwise, our child will have a hot temper too. Be good, alright?”
“Like hell I’m pregnant!” Liu Duo said unceremoniously as she knocked him on the head. “Release me! And don’t you ever hug me! So what if I have a hot-tempered child in the future? None of your business!”
Seeing the two of them quarrel, Ye Liu shook his head. He would never understand the world of childish adults.
