Of course she knew that. She was just teasing him. She just did not like how this was not what she had in mind!
It seemed like she should not have expected the ever stoic Ye Yang to go into wife protection mode. It was not quite practical.
“Yes, whatever you say is right! In terms of status, I’m the fifth in the family. How could I have my say?”
Liu Duo had her hands over her chest, feigning submission.
Other than Liu Ran, she was the youngest in the family, in terms of actual age.
Mentally, she was older than all of them!
Ye Yang patted her on the head again. His wife was such a unique personality, and adorable too.
“You have the highest rank. You can say what you want.”
In other words, whether the opinion was proper, acceptable, or applicable remained to be seen.
Upon recognizing his implied meaning, Liu Duo marched forth, fuming, leaving him behind!
For the first time ever, she realized that Yang was more stubborn than she thought. He would not cooperate with her.
She did not like this!
Ye Yang caught up with her in no time and followed her closely. Being able to take longer strides had always been his advantage.
He showed a bit of softness as he stared at the back of his wife’s head. What kind of life had he lived before he met her?
His life now was a lot more realistic, interesting, and vivid!
The two stayed silent as they walked on for ten minutes or so. Neither said anything to the other.
Soon, Ye Yang could not bear it anymore and held Liu Duo’s soft hands in his. “Little Duo, why won’t you speak?”
As far as he knew, Liu Duo could be quite a chatterbox.
But they had been walking for quite some time without her making a sound. She would not even look at him.
He found this really strange. Something was amiss.
Liu Duo rolled her eyes and quietly muttered, “I can choose to say or not say whatever and whenever I want! You weren’t speaking either!”
When he heard her mumbling, he could tell she was very cross with him.
His wife was throwing a tantrum. She was mad!
“Little Duo, be good, don’t be angry, alright?”
And then, with his free hand, he gently pinched her nose.
“Who says I’m angry? Don’t go spouting gibberish, Yang!” Liu Duo shoved his hand away grumpily, when in fact she was actually quite happy.
Ye Yang had taken the initiative to console her. For a stoic and reserved man like him, that was quite an extraordinary change!
It was not sweet talk, but it still made her feel better.
“I’m not blind!” Ye Yang said sternly.
Pffft, haha…
Liu Duo couldn’t restrain her laughter. Yang could be quite a joker too.
How hilarious.
“Yang, I’m not angry!” Liu Duo said, her eyes curved into a smile. “I’m just teasing you. I don’t mind even if you can’t see that. Haha…”
“Naughty,” Ye Yang held her hand and walked with her.
He felt great after hearing his wife giggle.
…
When the other men were purchasing tomatoes in the neighboring village, occasionally there would be villagers coming forward to congratulate them.
After all, it was rare for a woman to bear more than one child at a time. News spread fast.
“Thank you for your wishes. Our Little Duo is a lucky woman to be blessed by the goddess of fertility! Haha…”
Ye Liu grinned as he chatted with the villagers.
Even Ye Mo appreciated the compliments.
