“My lady?” Little Tian called her again.
She knew she felt sad but she didn’t know what she should say to comfort her. After all, she had never experienced hurt from a relationship before. What did it feel like to not be loved by the person you love?
After some time passed, Wang Xiangyun finally replied to Little Tian, “Let’s go.”
As she spoke, she lifted her hand and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Little Tian looked at Wang Xiangyun and she looked like nothing happened. Little Tian frowned and was still quite worried. “My lady, you…”
Wang Xiangyun interrupted her before she finished speaking. “Little Tian, I know what you are going to say. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”
And so, although Little Tian was still worried, she didn’t say anything anymore to give her some peace and quiet.
Elsewhere, Liu Duo and Ye Ling were walking leisurely. They were completely unaffected by what had happened with Wang Xiangyun just now.
“Duo Er, Brother Ming’s painting skills are really good. He was able to paint us very life-like,” Ye Ling said with a lively voice, revealing his good mood.
Liu Duo lifted her head and saw a big smile on Ye Ling’s face. She nodded and smiled. “Yeah, Dongfang’s painting skills are awesome. But I still think Ling looks much more handsome in person.”
“Duo Er also looks better in person,” Ye Ling replied and went along with her.
“Of course! Haha…”
Liu Duo smiled very brightly. Ye Ling’s way of just going along with what she said was very amusing.
Ye Liu rented Wang Tuozi’s bullock cart for use. After he went to town and bought wooden boards, he drove it back home. When he arrived home, he quickly bolted upstairs.
“Little Liu, why are you carrying wooden boards upstairs?” Aunt Li saw this and asked curiously.
Why didn’t he go with the others to purchase tomatoes today?
Ye Liu, who was carrying a wooden board, turned back and smiled at her. “It’s nothing. I’m just changing the bed’s bed board.”
He would, of course, not tell her the real reason.
Change the bed board?
Aunt Li felt suspicious. Ye Yang and the other’s beds were all newly made when they moved in. Did they break even though it’d only been a few months? That shouldn’t be, right?
Ye Liu was short on time so he didn’t want to speak too much. “Aunt Li, I’m going to get working.”
After he finished speaking, he smiled and then went upstairs. He couldn’t be sure whether Liu Duo and Ye Ling would suddenly come home.
After a long time passed, Liu Duo and Ye Ling arrived back from Lotus Village of the neighboring town.
“Ling, let’s go help Yang with some of the work in the fields.” Liu Duo asked for his opinion. She didn’t just say this as an excuse to decline Dongfang Ming’s offer to send them back on his horse carriage just now.
She really did want to visit Ye Yang, who was working in the fields.
When Ye Ling heard her, he nodded and replied, “Okay. Let’s go.”
However, after they had just taken a few steps, they ran into three villagers who were carrying basket backpacks and who were heading to their house to sell tomatoes.
“Fourth brother of the Ye family, where are you guys going? We are still waiting for you to buy our tomatoes.”
One of the villagers asked him this.
For the tomatoes coming from their village, Ye Liu would buy them if they ran into the villagers, and if not, they would deliver them to their house themselves.
“Duo Er, why don’t you go help Yang? I will go back to record down the transaction and pay them,” Ye Ling volunteered. Recently, he had learned quite a few commonly used words.
In response, Liu Duo nodded to agree. It would act as a practice for Ye Ling as well. “Okay then. I will go find Yang and we will go back together to have lunch.”
“Okay.”
The two of them then split up onto two different paths. Liu Duo went towards where Ye Yang was and Ye Ling went with the villagers to their house.
While Liu Duo was walking on the road, although there were other villagers who were going the same way as her, she did not talk to them.
