Chapter 1318: Chapter 1190: Candidate for Sister-in-Law
The backyard of the Ping An Brothers’ courtyard surrounds a private garden, and May 1st’s small courtyard is located behind a lush grove of bamboo.
At this moment, three large military dogs are squatting at the gate of the courtyard, watching the three dog sons rolling and running by the pond, remaining at their posts.
Inside the courtyard, the Liu Yi brothers, twins, are sitting on a stone stool, elbows rested on the stone table, chatting idly. Ping’an is half-asleep on a nearby wicker chair, occasionally responding to them.
"Little bro, come over every once in a while to help me trim those bamboos, they’re growing too fast. It’s fine in summer, but mom says in winter, when the wind blows, it gets noisy. I think she’s a bit scared."
"Okay. After all, we need to hire someone every year to maintain the courtyard, I’ll have them do it." Liu Yi said, picking up the teapot to pour water into three teacups, and added slowly, "It’s not just the bamboo, some of the trees transplanted a few years ago have grown too tall. I’m not in favor of having big trees in the courtyard."
"You’re worried about thieves, or eavesdroppers?"
"Just to be safe."
May 1st chuckled nonchalantly, "Then you do as you see fit, safety first."
"You guys are worrying for nothing. Dad took this into account long ago, look, all the trees near the courtyards are short, only the front yard has old trees."
"Never doubted Old Dad’s skills," Liu Yi paused, "but honestly, from a security standpoint, it’s better to have open space all around than even small trees."
May 1st pointed outside with a smile, "Like the pavilion?"
"Of course. Tonight, mom has arranged for grandpa and the others to drink over there."
"Little bro, you’re just like mom."
"No kidding! She gave birth to me, who else would I resemble?"
"I mean, character-wise, actually among mom’s three sons, I look the most like her."
Ping’an opened his eyes and glanced at him with a smile, "True, but pity, you’d have been better as a girl. Back then, when mom was pregnant with you two, dad tricked me."
May 1st turned interested, "Big bro, spill it."
"Spill? Hahaha..." Ping’an burst into laughter, "You guys weren’t born yet, and dad kept telling me if I had a sister, she’d marry away, and we’d lose both the person and money, such a loss. It’s better to have brothers, marry wives with dowries, gain someone to work..."
"Hahaha..." May 1st and Liu Yi brothers laughed aloud.
"I thought, that’s right." Ping’an laughed at his own childhood thoughts, "At the time, I thought I wanted brothers, decided against having a sister."
"Bro, regret it now?"
"Not at all. If I had a sister, I’d worry she’d marry the wrong person, worry she’d be bullied at her in-laws. Brothers are better. Although you’re a bit of a headache, but no worries about marrying away."
"You’re contradictory." Liu Yi pointed at May 1st, "I wish he were a sister, could dress him in frilly skirts, braid his hair."
"No way." May 1st gave him a side glance, "Isn’t Little Tangtang your sister? Why didn’t you braid her hair?"
Ping’an immediately sat up, teasingly glanced at Liu Yi, laughed, "You don’t get it, do you? This sister is different. You lose there."
"Little girls, too troublesome, I have many options with a wave of my hand!"
Liu Yi glanced at his brother speechlessly: bragging!
"Big bro, you’re the one who’s 25 now." May 1st seriously directed at Ping’an, "Whether from genetics or family needs, you need to find someone."
Liu Yi also looked at Ping’an with a half-smile: confess truthfully, or?
"You wave a hand for options, you think I’m timid?"
May 1st, quite troubled, spread his hands, "Not that, but my big brother’s conditions are too good, I can’t think of any girl good enough."
Liu Yi lifted his thin lips: "Fool!"
"Want a duel?"
"Afraid of you?"
Ping’an glared at his two brothers, "Enough already!"
"Forget it, I won’t stoop to his level."
Liu Yi glanced at his brother, raised his chin at big brother, "See, you’re foolish, don’t believe it?"
"Wait." May 1st heard this, looked at him, rolled his eyes, looked at Ping’an, and slapped his own forehead.
"See, foolish!"
"Little bro, hey, have you smelled anything with big bro lately?" May 1st said, winking, "Big bro has a motive? Who?"
Liu Yi rolled his eyes to the sky: What kind of brother is this, foolish! Smell something? Think you’re Hu Niu’s brother!
"Little bro~"
May 1st stretched his voice, finger poked him, although his leg felt itchy, kicking would be better. Forget it, a real man knows when to advance and retreat!
Liu Yi, startled by the stretched voice, quickly raised both hands, "Let’s talk normally, brother."
"Hey, give me a hint."
Liu Yi looked at Ping’an, "Bro, you want to or shall I? You better tell him, or he’ll make a fuss."
"Big bro, you hurt me, you actually, actually," May 1st looked at Ping’an accusingly, fingers shaking as he pointed at Ping’an, "actually hid something from me? What’s with the promise of brotherly love and trust? You said I’m your most trusted brother, I’m the youngest, you promised to care for me, now your good brother image is shattered..."
"Enough! Acting now?" Ping’an kicked him speechlessly, "Who’s stopping your brain from thinking?"
"Seriously?" May 1st stopped his playful smile, looked seriously at him, "Which girl? Do I know her? Don’t go for just anyone."
Liu Yi added a word, "Describe the criteria for who’s fit to be our sister-in-law first."
"Well..." May 1st frowned, "A bit late to discuss now, family background isn’t a priority, she should be decent, otherwise..."
"Wow! Little brother harder than the sister-in-law." Liu Yi commented.
May 1st glanced at Liu Yi, more concerned with the matter at hand, not in the mood for fun. How did big bro find a partner so quietly?
Does mom know? Her son is taken by a girl.
Ping’an, watched by May 1st, pondered for a moment, glared at his two brothers, moved his gaze away, saying, "Liu Yi, you tell him."
Liu Yi curled his lips, gaze fixed on Ping’an, with a teasing smile, "Bro, your ears are red."
"Want a fight!"
"Spill it!" May 1st finally kicked his itchy foot at Liu Yi, missing but didn’t mind, thought he’s finally at ease, "Who?"
Liu Yi regretfully glanced at Ping’an, shook his head, thinking more teasing was fun, reluctantly uttered a word: "Qu."
