Chapter 310: Giving Them Bricks Would Be More Deserving

The last time she had seen him smile was the time when they had shared a bed at night, but he wouldn’t admit it. It had been a long time before she found his smile again, and it happened under broad daylight with a witness too. With Liu Ran! Liu Duo would call this a win!

Liu Ran always thought this eldest brother-in-law, who exhibited nothing but coldness, didn’t know what a smile was. Who would believe he had actually done it just moments before! It was such a rare thing!

“Let’s go,” One chuckle, and then he turned back to his original form, including the coldness and lack of expression.

He took hold of Liu Duo’s hand and marched forward.

When they were almost at the Liu household, Liu Ran let go of his sister’s hand and dashed into the house.

Liu Duo could only laugh at his impatience, “We’re almost there, but he couldn’t wait any longer.”

“He misses his mother!” Ye Yang said understandingly as he watched him go.

For a kid who had never left his mother’s side, a night apart would increase the longing. He remembered the devastation he had experienced back when they suddenly lost both their parents.

By the time they arrived at the door, they could hear Grandmother Liu’s unruly scolding, “About time you came back, you brat! Let’s see if I won’t break your legs! How dare you run away like your mother? That bitch!”

They entered the yard to see the old woman beating Liu Ran with a broomstick while Liu Quanfu and Liu Liushi tried to block her. Liu Quanyan and Liu Qing merely stood aside, pretending to mediate.

“Sister Duo, why are you back?” Liu Qing greeted Liu Duo, smiling.

Hearing that, Grandmother Liu stopped torturing Liu Ran, “You stupid woman. What are you here for? Have you perhaps come to pay your respects?”

Her lips twitched. This old hag had quite the imagination!

Did she still expect she would give them some silver? Giving them bricks would be more deserving!

Liu Duo refused to give her the time of day. She went straight for Liu Liushi, “My husband let you come back here to inform yours. Why haven’t you returned? Don’t you want the job?”

“Duo Er, it’s not that. Your grandmother wouldn’t let me,” Liu Liushi answered weakly.

She felt that the way her daughter looked at her had changed a lot. She didn’t dare to look her straight in the eye.Read comics on our webnovel.live

Liu Duo raised a brow, “Ran Er missed you, so I brought him here. This is something you have to deal with on your own. Get back to us if you want to work, but don’t make us wait too long.”

Since Ye Liu wanted to employ some workers, they couldn’t wait long, because there was work to be done!

Liu Liushi’s dilemma was a family affair, and Liu Duo had no plans to interfere, since she had nothing to do with them! She found it troublesome.

She turned to Ye Yang, “Yang, let’s go home.”

All the while, she ignored Grandmother Liu and other members of the family as though they were just air around her.

Grandmother Liu stopped them when she saw that they were about to leave. She shouted, “Stupid girl, I’m talking to you! Do you hear me? Leave your money before you go! It’s not sensible to return to your original home empty-handed! For all we’ve done raising you in the past fifteen years…”

She fired a whole speech at Liu Duo. It was tiresome. But this was her territory, and Liu Duo wouldn’t want to do anything she would regret.

Liu Qing ran to lock up the door. It seemed like they weren’t allowed to leave without paying first.

Ye Yang saw that Liu Qing had the yard door locked. He stared at him with a poker face, waiting to see what else he had up his sleeve.

Liu Duo didn’t show much expression either. If the old one would take advantage, then surely the young one would follow too. She remembered very clearly what kind of person Liu Qing was!

“Little Qing, why did you lock the door?” Liu Quanfu voiced his concern.

Liu Duo hadn’t left yet. Locking the door obviously meant they planned to stir up trouble!
