Chapter 64 – Warning
Li Mo left the kitchen and saw that Li Shu was still standing around in the courtyard and doing nothing. He went forward, dragged him to a corner by his arm, and sternly looked at him.
Li Shu was originally going to throw a fit, but seeing his oldest brother’s expression, he panicked and asked, “Oldest brother, what are you going to do?”
“Tell . What exactly did you do to her?” Li Mo’s expression was grave as he interrogated in a low tone.
“What?” Li Shu felt baffled. ” I didn’t do anything.”
“Do I have to beat you before you’ll be honest?” Li Mo’s forehead was very wrinkled, and his hand had already clenched into a fist.
Li Shu’s eyelids twitched in alarm. He retreated a step towards the wall. “Oldest brother, what explain happened? Explain it clearly first, ah.”
“If you didn’t do anything, why would she be upset?” Li Mo stared at him in disappointnt. “Did you bully her?”
Feeling wronged, Li Shu exclaid, “What?! I haven’t even tried to touch her hands.”
Li Mo deeply looked at him. A long ti later, he finally said, “You better be telling the truth.”
Seeing that his oldest brother was finally letting him off, Li Shu let out a sigh of relief. He felt quite wronged and said, “That’s the truth. What about fourth brother? He’s held her hand several tis. Oh yeah, oldest brother, shouldn’t you be asking second brother about the hairpin that wife is wearing? Second brother was definitely the one that gave it to her.”
Li Mo knew this even without Li Shu ntioning it. “Just watch yourself.”
Lu Shu felt depressed. “How co it doesn’t matter what second brother and fourth brother are doing?” Suddenly, he thought of sothing else. He quickly said, “Hey, wife recently asked what the word wife ant. Isn’t that funny? How could soone of her age not know what wife ans?”
“What?” Li Mo was flabbergasted too. Why would she ask such a strange question?
At this ti, Li Yan, who had been watching the entertaining show from the eastern hut, finally ca out. “Oldest brother.”
Li Shu imdiately asked, “Second brother, you were the one that give wife the hairpin that she’s wearing, right?”
Li Yan slightly smiled and straightforwardly admitted, “Yup, doesn’t it suit her very well?”
“Second brother, you’re cheating,” Li Shu imdiately whined.
“Third brother.” Li Mo was worried that Li Man would overhear their conversation from the kitchen, so he fiercely glared at Li Shu.
Li Shu pouted and lowered his voice as he continued talking, “Oldest brother, that’s foul play. What if wife starts liking second brother because of the hairpin he gave her?
The smile on Li Yan’s face deepened. “Third brother, you woke up so early to get food for the pigs, then you ca back to feeds the pigs and chickens. You even caught fish. Aren’t you doing all of these things to please our wife so that she’ll like you?”
“...” Li Shu couldn’t defend himself. It was true. He wanted their wife to like him, but he felt that his second brother was more successful at catching their wife’s attention. He felt both admiring and envious.
Since their third brother wasn’t saying anything, Li Yan hid away his smile and seriously said to Li Mo, “Oldest brother, you should be more thoughtful with our wife too.”
Li Mo furrowed his brow. He didn’t understand the aning of his words.
Li Yan walked a bit closer to him. A wicked smile flashed through his eyes as he lowered his voice and said, “Oldest brother, isn’t it about ti for our family to have children? Even if you’re not feeling anxious over this matter, your younger brothers are very anxious about this. Besides, did you see how Third Lia was looking at our wife today?”
Li Mo hadn’t noticed, and Li Shu hadn’t been there at the ti. Li Shu anxiously asked, “How was he looking at her? Was he sneaking glances at her?”
Li Yan kept his gaze on Li Mo as he continued, “We all know how beautiful our wife looks. There’s probably no one that can compare to her in the surrounding villages. Oldest brother, aren’t you worried about the people lusting after her? Moreover, everyone in the village knows about that. What if the matter spread outside of our village and soone tries to seduce her away?”
