Ye Yang felt a tingling sensation in his ears and a bolt of electricity going through his entire body. He kept feeling like he had become more sensitive in the past few days. Why had his self-control become so bad? He felt annoyed and ashamed. He straightaway called Liu Duo a fairy! She was always teasing him!

She saw that he didn't reply and instead, his ears went red. She thought, Yang, this guy who always keeps his feelings inside, is embarrassed? Haha!

"Yang, take your time to sharpen the knife, I'll go take a look in the kitchen." Liu Duo left for the kitchen while smiling.

Ye Yang looked at Liu Duo's proud but lovable back and wanted to teach her a lesson. She was always so mischievous.

Liu Duo entered the kitchen while humming a folk song. She saw that Ye Ling was cutting vegetables and that the congee was being cooked in the pot. She laughed, "Ling, you are so virtuous."

He knew how to do the laundry, cook, and do needlework, and he had a gentle temperament as well. He was simply the perfect match for someone who was a good wife and a loving mother!

Ye Ling's face turned red when he heard her. He didn't know how to reply. Ye Mo, however, rolled his eyes at her. He said, hatefully, "Virtuous? Do you mean that Ling is a girl? You are insulting him!"

Liu Duo, who was finding somewhere to sit down, heard Ye Mo's voice and felt annoyed. She had never thought that she would hate someone so much. Not only was he violent, overbearing, and impulsive, but he was also quite childish!

She rolled her eyes at him. "You are talking nonsense. I was praising Ling as a good man. Not only is he gentle but also diligent - unlike some other person who is so arrogant and so very annoying!"

With one sentence, the two of them got into conflict and started to bicker again. Ye Ling only treated it as listening to the opera and let them kick up a fuss. They really were each other's foes!

After they had lunch, Liu Duo went with Ye Yang to chop bamboo. Before leaving, she prepared some snacks and gave them to Ye Ling so that he could deliver them to Aunt Ye.

The bamboo forest was a bit far from their home. It took about twenty minutes of walking before they arrived. Liu Duo looked at the vast amount of bamboo and felt like she was in a sea of bamboo. It was too beautiful.

"Yang, it is so beautiful here. Is this shared between the villagers?" At that moment, Liu Duo really wanted to build their house there. Of the Four Noble Ones, plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, her favorite was bamboo!

Ye Yang didn't know why Liu Duo asked this, but he answered truthfully, "No."

"Then who does it belong to?" Liu Duo felt puzzled.

If it belonged to the village, she would just find the village chief and buy it. If it belonged to some other person, they would definitely not sell it. After all, it was too beautiful there, and it was a place that was very poetic.

"It doesn't belong to anyone. The bamboo is shared by all the villagers, but this land doesn't have a landlord." As for why there wasn't a landlord, he also did not know. In any case, this was what he knew.

If there were a landlord, the bamboo there would have all been harvested long ago.

Liu Duo frowned when she heard it. She asked, "Yang, then, if I wanted to build a house here, who do I need to seek permission from?"

"You can ask the village chief. If he agrees, then no one would say anything. After all, no one owns the land, but it still belongs to the village." It was rare that Ye Yang would say a sentence with so many words.

Liu Duo nodded and decided to ask the village chief later. If he agreed, then she would build their house there.

Ye Yang saw that Liu Duo didn't have any more questions and started to cut the bamboo. Liu Duo looked around and realized there were bamboo shoots. Liu Duo found a bamboo shoot and went to dig it up.

It was spring, the season where there were a lot of bamboo shoots. It just so happened that she hadn't eaten bamboo shoots in a long time, so she wanted to take some back to eat.

"What are you digging?" Ye Yang saw her crouching over there and walked over to look.
