Chapter 191: In Sync

Ye Mo didn’t know how to kiss. It didn’t even feel like a kiss – more like love bites! He did whatever he felt like doing, biting here and there with the occasional lick, almost like a dog.

It was a little painful, and rather soggy. Liu Duo pushed his head away and scolded him, “Are you mad, Mo! You’re behaving like a dog, with your biting and licking. I’m not a bone!”

Ye Mo, flushed red, looked at her with unprecedented shyness, “I…”

“Get off, I’m getting up,” Liu Duo didn’t want to lie in bed anymore. She wouldn’t go back to sleep anyway.

Gosh, he was overridden with l.u.s.t again. She should stay far away from him, otherwise her hand would have to take care of something gruesome!

“Liu Duo, sleep a little more,” Ye Mo kept hold of her, not allowing her to get up.

“Like h.e.l.l I can. From the moment you strangled me awake, I couldn’t go back to sleep.” She rolled her eyes angrily.

This was definitely his fault, he admitted, but did not say it aloud. He was adamant, so he said, “Then stay with me while I sleep a little more.”

He was relentless and forceful when he wanted Liu Duo to stay in bed. He hugged her tightly and made use of her hands!

Liu Duo could only submit to him. What else could she do? Could she have him castrated, like a eunuch? Then what would happen to her s.e.x life? Sure, she had three more husbands to satisfy her, but four means four. She wouldn’t want to have three husbands… in addition to one who’s a eunuch.

She thought as she stared lazily at the ceiling, and eventually fell back to sleep.

After relieving himself twice, he helped clean her hands, and covered them both with the blanket. Satisfied, he hugged Liu Duo. Now he was full of energy and joy.

It was almost nine by the time Liu Duo woke up from her morning nap. Ye Mo had long left the room. She climbed out of bed and put on her clothes, ready to go get breakfast, since she felt she was practically starving. She simply tied her hair up and went to wash up by the well.

“Morning, Duo Er. Wash up quickly, I’ll get you the food I’ve kept warm for you,” Ye Ling had been waiting for her under the roof.

“You’re so nice, Ling,” she giggled and washed up.

She didn’t see Ye Yang and the rest though. Where had they gone? She felt empty not seeing them in the morning, like something was missing.

As she ate the food he brought her, she asked, “Ling, where did your brothers go?”

“They went to the bamboo forest to peel bamboo shoots. Liu said you know how to get rid of its bitter taste, which we can use to sell for money. He even called up Brother Li to help,” Ye Ling replied honestly. He felt that Liu Duo was their lucky star.

Their lives had taken a turn for the better since they had met her. They ate better than before. They wore better clothes than before. Liu Duo had even said she wanted to build a new house for them. He felt really happy.

Liu Duo was surprised to hear that. Who knew Liuzi took action so quickly? She was just thinking about bringing along Li Wazi to work on this business, and he had already made a move?

But she was happy that her husband was not only quick with execution, but he also knew to include Li Wazi, their ‘brother from another mother’. Liu Duo felt that she and him were quite in sync!

Liu Duo finished her breakfast joyfully. After that, she followed Ye Ling to the bamboo forest to see how much they had peeled.

Meanwhile, the four brothers were hard at work gathering bamboo shoots. They could sell them all for money. They still had hands to make nice work, and they didn’t cheat or steal. They had collected a giant heap – at least several dozen jin!

“Brother Liu, is your wife really that all-knowing? She actually knows how to get rid of the bitterness of these bamboo shoots?” Li Wazi asked bluntly out of curiosity, and wondered how she could make it work.
