“It’s that little brat called Xiaoling. I even fought with her and her mother beside the lake a few months ago.”
Liu Duo recalled it without having to think. She had a very good memory.
When Ye Mo heard this, he immediately said furiously, “That damn brat? If I run into her, I’m going to beat her up so badly that even her mom and dad wouldn’t be able to recognize her!”
Ye Yang and the others all frowned. It seemed they needed to go teach this Xiaoling a lesson. She actually dared to chase Liu Duo with the intention of hitting her?
Ye Liu took over the folding fan Liu Duo had made herself and fanned her. “Little Duo, you are so smart. You knew to run because you wouldn’t be able to fight them by yourself! But you can rest assured we will go take care of the one called Xiaoling on your behalf.”
Liu Duo rolled her eyes at him. Would she choose not to run and let them hit her?
This wasn’t called smart, this was called a natural reaction!
Xiaoling’s family’s paddy field was not particularly far from their paddy field. It was just about three hundred meters away.
After each of them ate two fruits, they went back to harvest the seedlings on the paddy field again.
Liu Duo still went to sit beneath the shade of the tree and watched them do manual labor.
Inside the house, Liu Quanfu and Liu Ran chatted for a long time. Liu Quanfu suddenly said, “Ran Er, your mother and I should get going. We will come to visit you and your sister from time to time.”
“That’s right. Ran Er, you need to listen to your sister and your brother-in-laws. You need to help and depend on your classmates while you are in school…”
The two of them blurted out a bunch of things again. Their eyes and words all showed they were reluctant to leave.
Liu Ran, on the other hand, just nodded a slight nod. “Okay. Mom, Dad, you guys can rest assured. I will definitely listen to sis and brother-in-laws’ words…”
Liu Ran saw them to the yard door and stood there, looking at them. After taking three steps, the two of them looked back as they walked away, their eyes red.
Just as they were about to disappear from his line of sight, he ran forward a few steps. “Mom, dad, you guys have to remember to come to visit me and sis!”
He was worried they were only just saying it. Because he could feel that the two of them were quite scared of Liu Duo and his brother-in-laws.
Both of them nodded their heads. “We will. Quickly go back and look after the house.”
After they finished speaking, they went out of the bamboo forest and went towards the town.
Hei Xiaomeng was running around at the side. It slipped and fell because it ran too fast. It fell and landed on the ground with the side of its body. Liu Ran saw this and immediately started laughing.
Even dogs could fall down? That was too funny.
When the sun was about to set, Ye Ling started to use the ropes to tie the harvested seedlings together. Ye Yang and the others then carried them back home…
Li Chunmei came from the neighboring field and suddenly said to Ye Ling, “Ling, can I borrow your sickle?”
Upon hearing her, Ye Ling lifted his head and looked at her.
“Ling, my sickle is broken. Can you lend me one of your guys’? Mo and the others aren’t using it right now anyway.”
Ye Mo and the other two were carrying the seedlings back home. Right now, Ye Ling was the only one in the paddy field.
Liu Duo saw the two of them speaking and raised her eyebrows, not showing any special expression.
Ye Ling looked at her and then went over to grab a sickle that wasn’t in use for her. “Use this.”
Lending it to her wasn’t a problem. He wouldn’t reject lending her a sickle just because she was interested in Mo. After all, she did help them plant the seedlings before.
“Thank you, Ling. I will give it back to you when you guys are back home.”
Li Chunmei gave her thanks and smiled at him.
Ye Ling didn’t say anything else. He nodded and continued to harvest the seedlings.
In response to this, however, Li Chunmei turned around to look at Liu Duo and gave an ambiguous smile.
