Chapter 374: The Weather Was Also Very Hot, So She Wasn’t In The Mood

Half a month passed in a flash, and it was almost the day of Liu Duo’s sixteenth birthday.

“Little Duo, tomorrow is your birthday. How do you want to spend it?” Ye Liu asked for her opinion.

In their eyes, she was a very opinionated woman with a lot of ideas.

No matter whether the issues were big or small, they would ask and discuss it with her.

Recently, there were no longer any bamboo shoots they could procure, and they had already asked the temp workers to stop coming. They would only ask them to come back to help when the tomatoes had ripened.

Liu Duo was sitting on the rocking chair, wearing the clothes she had asked Ye Ling to help her modify. She changed a long sleeve shirt into a sleeveless mini dress (The length went up to her knees).

Initially, Ye Ling didn’t want her to change it, but he couldn’t defend himself from her coaxing and pestering and, in the end, he modified it while being red in the face. When she tried it on, he didn’t dare to look at her.

When that hooligan Ye Liu saw her, he blew a very loud wolf whistle at her.

When Ye Mo saw her, he muttered softly Shameless!

Ye Yang glanced at her with that expressionless face of his and then looked away. However, he would sneak in a glance from time to time, and his ears were also very red.

Liu Duo heard him and rocked in her chair. She thought for a while and said, “Just invite Aunt Ye, and Aunt Li’s family to come to have a meal.”

There wasn’t really anyone else she could invite. She didn’t really like it when there were too many people and it was too noisy.

The weather was also very hot, so she wasn’t in the mood.

Otherwise, they could’ve gone out to some other place.

“Okay. Then Mo and I will go to town to procure the goods.”

“Okay, go ahead. Go soon so you can come back earlier. It will get extremely hot later.”

It was still early, as they had just recently finished breakfast.

The two of them drove the ox-cart out of the yard. Ye Yang prepared to go to the fields, and Ye Ling also followed along.

She looked at the bamboo. It was much taller than the yard wall. It wasn’t clear what she was thinking. She stood and went upstairs.

When she returned, she was wearing a pale pinkish-gray long sleeve shirt, and she carried an oil-paper umbrella in her hand.

After she locked the door, she opened up the oil-paper umbrella and went out.

Liu Duo’s forehead was filled with sweat after walking for a long time. When she heard the sound of people reading, her lips went up a bit, and she started to smile.

Liu Duo walked closer to the school and went straight in. She stood outside the window and watched Liu Ran and the other students as they listened attentively to the teacher.

The teacher saw Liu Duo, got up, and walked out.

“Ye Liushi, may I ask what are you here for?”

Liu Duo closed the oil-paper umbrella and smiled. “To see Ran Er, and, since I’m here, also to ask how his studies are going.”

Actually, she wanted to say that she wanted to bring him home, but the words that came out were different.

She thought about it and, although the following day was her birthday, she thought it was better to not interrupt his studies.

When the teacher heard her, he told her about how studious and hardworking Liu Ran was. He had already caught up to the other students and was no longer struggling as much.

After she stayed at the school for a while longer, Liu Duo left.

She then returned home the way she came. However, she ran into someone she hadn’t seen for a long time – Li Chunmei.

When Li Chunmei saw Liu Duo, she glanced at her.

When Liu Duo saw this, she raised her eyebrows and muttered in her heart, This brat just glanced at me? Ha…”

Liu Duo slowly walked towards her with her umbrella in her hand. She passed her by and she didn’t really want to find any trouble with her.

Although she did say she would hit her every time she saw her, she was not really that violent. She wouldn’t do anything, as long as Li Chunmei didn’t provoke her.

“Pretending! It’s not like it’s raining.” Li Chunmei intentionally said this out when she passed by Liu Duo.

It wasn’t too loud or too soft. It was just enough for Liu Duo to hear it.

Upon hearing this, Liu Duo stopped walking and turned her head towards Li Chunmei.

After not seeing her for a long time, her already tanned skin turned even darker. It was probably due to standing beneath the sun when she did farm work.

Seeing that Liu Duo was looking at her, Li Chunmei also turned her head and looked at Liu Duo.
