They then sat around for a while and chatted quite a lot. Liu Duo liked Aunt Ye more and more. Her talkative side came out, and she became more energetic as they chatted.

When Aunt Ye saw them out from the yard, she called Ye Ling and asked him to stay behind for a while. Liu Duo knew that she had something to say to him, so she smiled and left first.

When Ye Ling saw Liu Duo had gone further away, he asked, "What is it, Aunt Ye? Do you have anything to say to me?"

"Ling, don't think that Aunt is nagging you. You brothers must treat her well. I can tell that she sincerely wants to live with you guys. Don't bully her when your lives get better in the future! It will be because of her hard work."

"There aren't a lot of women who know how to earn money better than men. You brothers are blessed to have her as a wife. Your parents in heaven can also rest easy." Aunt Ye said this sincerely and earnestly.

She thought about how a woman like Liu Duo, who possessed the ability to earn money, could immediately leave them and marry into a good family. However, she instead chose to help repay their debts, and even wanted to renovate the house… She didn't show any intention of leaving at all. They must definitely cherish such a good wife.

Ye Ling took it to heart and nodded. He knew that Aunt Ye had good intentions, so of course, he wouldn't find it annoying. "Okay, I understand. All of us will treat her well and would definitely not bully her."

"Okay, go. Take your time on the road. You also need to pay attention to your health. Take your medicine on time. You brothers need to work harder to have her give birth to babies. The more the better. Aunt Ye will help you guys take care of them." The kindly Aunt Ye smiled sweetly and exhorted him.

When Ye Ling heard his aunt mention having babies, he remembered that Liu Duo had told him that she was still young and unsuited to consummate the marriage. When the time was right, she would consummate the marriage with them.

Ye Ling didn't want to disappoint Aunt Ye. With his ears and face flushing, he nodded. "Okay. Aunt Ye, you can head back in. I'll be leaving."

While smiling, Aunt Ye closed the door and went back into the house only after she saw Ye Ling had gone further away.

Meanwhile, Liu Duo, who left first, ran into Ye Xuan.

When Liu Duo saw him, she pretended she didn't see him and continued to walk. However, being a brazen person, he insisted on coming over.

When Ye Xuan saw Liu Duo by herself, he ran after her with a smile on his face. He had kept thinking about her over the past few days. It didn't matter if he was sleeping, reading, or eating, his head was always filled with that image of her wearing a dudou, a coat, and pants when she stood by her house's yard door while talking with Grandma.

He kept wanting to go see her, but Grandma didn't allow him to go out. There were only about twenty-something days until the prefectural exam, so she wanted him to stay home and study.

The reason he had snuck out today was to go to her house, but they met on the road. It must be fate.

"Sister-in-law, are you heading back? Ye Xuan asked with a smile.

She didn't even look at Ye Xuan, who turned around. She copied Ye Yang's style and gave an indifferent, "Yeah."

"Where did sister-in-law go? I don't see Mo and the others accompanying you?"

"..." Am I close to you? It's none of your business!

"I actually wanted to go see you guys these past few days, but the prefectural exam is coming soon so Grandma doesn't let me go out. I have to stay at home and keep reviewing. Sister-in-law, I hope you don't mind."

"..." Why the hell would I mind! I would only mind it if you came. We aren't animals in a zoo. Do we need you to come see us?

"Why is sister-in-law not speaking? Are you unwell?"

"..." I am indeed unwell. I get unwell when I see you!

Ye Xuan didn't get angry when she saw that Liu Duo still didn't' speak. He smiled, extended his hands and pulled her hand. "Sister-in-law, I will take your pulse. It just so happens that I have a medical book, and I learned this from the book."
