Chapter 530: Nothing Compared To Us
He always had this idea, that she could definitely co up with different commodities, different foods, and maybe even so different opinions!
When Ye Ling ca out of the kitchen, he saw Dongfang Ming and greeted him. He also washed so fruit. Liu Duo couldn’t do that in ti, because the villagers had already co looking for her.
Right then, Li Chuni ca to their yard with her mother, each holding a basket.
Liu Duo was managing the accounts so she didn’t notice them. Ye Ling was the one who spoke. “Chuni, there’s a weighing scale here you can use.”
Liu Duo looked up and saw the two won. They were here to sell tomatoes, so she didn’t chase them away. This was a different matter.
After she paid the villager she was dealing with, Liu Duo turned to them.
This was Li Chuni’s first ti coming here to sell tomatoes. Her family didn’t plant a lot, but they would have a few stalks every year.
The mother weighed them and reported, “The total is ten jin. The baskets weigh half a jin together so you could write that as nine jin and a half.”
Liu Duo did not show any emotion as she registered the information. She used to know nothing about how heavy tomatoes were, but after working for so long she had a good concept of the weights. She needn’t fear they would cheat!
“And this is your pay. Please count it.”
“It’s correct,” they said, and left with their baskets after that.
But Liu Duo kept her eyes on the two won. There was sothing strange about Li Chuni, she felt. Perhaps it was the questionable look the woman had given her yesterday. Liu Duo beca defensive around her!
When it was almost noon, Ye Liu and the n rode leisurely on their bullock-cart, heading towards ho. A horse carriage was parked outside their front door. Ye Liu said, “Seems like our Brother Dongfang ca for a visit!”
He had ridden on the horse carriage before. Of course he rembered.
Ye Mo frowned. “What’s he doing here? Didn’t you et last ti? Hasn’t he gone back to the capital?”
“I don’t know what he’s here for, but I know he won’t be leaving this place for a while. He says he’ll be staying for so ti.”
Though Ye Liu wasn’t clear why the man wanted to stay.
They led the bullock-cart into the yard. Ye Mo spotted Dongfang Ming sitting on the stool with a fan in hand.
Similarly, Dongfang Ming spotted Ye Mo, the last mber of the household who he had yet to et.
Their eyes t, and Ye Mo thought, sure, he’s quite handso, but he’s nothing compared to and my brothers!
Dongfang Ming wondered, the third brother might not have a good temper. There seems to be devious intentions in those eyes.
“Brother Dongfang, welco to our humble abode! I hope you don’t mind the lack of hospitality,” Ye Liu giggled as he greeted him.
He knew Dongfang Ming was a rich person, and he was afraid he couldn’t get used to the simple farmhouse.
Dongfang Ming stood up, walked towards them and replied to them in a brotherly manner, “Brother Ye, none of that. I dropped by without notice. Sorry for the disturbance.”
Ye Mo eyed the gentle smile hanging on Dongfang Ming’s handso face. He wasn’t very pleased. If the man knew he would be disturbing them if he ca without telling them first, then why did he still co anyway?
Liu Duo had gone to the outhouse in the back. She didn’t know the n had returned.
Ye Liu quickly made introductions. “This is my third brother, Ye Mo. And this is my good friend, Li Gener, but we usually call him Li Wazi. And that one there is my eldest brother, Ye Yang.”
“It’s nice eting you,” Dongfang Ming said politely and bowed. “Your wife has introduced Ye Yang to . I know he’s your eldest brother.”
Li Wazi smiled frankly. “Hello there.”
Ye Mo nodded in acknowledgnt, then began to unload tomatoes off the cart. He did not intend to have a conversation with that man.
