Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife

Chapter 900: Could They Still Live Happily Together?

Ye Liu did not feel right, seeing his brother like this. His fine brows furled.

Mo had crossed the line!

How could he talk to Ling like that?

He could show he cared, but not with a harsh tone like that. His concern seemed a lot like condemnation!

Li Wazi washed up and came to help Ye Mo in the kitchen.

He opened his mouth to say, “Mo, your tone was a bit too much just now. Ling just wanted to share the workload. He didn’t mean to fall sick. He’s going to be upset after you tell him off like that.”

“Upset?” Ye Mo grunted. “Well, he should be. He should know better than to ask a whole bunch of questions, get overemotional, fall ill, and then make everyone else panic and worry! If he… If something happened, we’d be even more upset!”

Li Wazi listened carefully. He could hear Ye Mo trembling as he spoke.

Ye Mo did not get why Ling wanted to know about everything that was happening.

Yang, Liu, and he himself could very well manage the troublesome affairs that keep popping up in their lives. All Ling had to do was live a happy and carefree life. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Why would he think about shouldering responsibilities, and get everybody into an even bigger mess!

“Mo, I know you care a lot about Ling, but you’re doing it wrong.” Aunt Li shook her head.

Ye Liu was sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard. His usual smile was gone, replaced by a frown. He looked troubled as he pondered recent events.

If he and his brothers could not be united as one, then in the long term their bonds would break. Currently, they could not see eye to eye with one another…could they still live happily together?

Ye Ling returned to his room on the third floor. He sat by the bed and began to stare blankly into space. His pale face looked even more pitiful.

“Ling, why do you look so pale?” Liu Duo woke up and mentioned the first thing she saw.

But Ye Ling had sunk so deep into his thoughts and he did not seem to hear her.

Liu Duo sat up and waved her hand in front of him. “Ling, what’s on your mind? You seem dazed.”

He gently held onto the hand waving in front of him and turned to look at her before speaking softly. “Duo Er, I’ve been thinking, if I were the same as my brothers, just as strong and healthy as them… how nice that would be.”

A faint smile appeared on his handsome face as he said so.

But Liu Duo could see the sorrow, frustration, and guilt behind that smile. It was a sorry sight.

She could empathize with his helplessness, because she had thought about that too in her past life!

“Ling, we cannot decide how we’re born, whether we’re born healthy or not. But we can decide how we live, whether we do it happily or not, do you get me? So maybe we have to deal with trouble once in a while. Your brothers don’t tell you not to because they don’t want you to. They worry about your health, since that is out of anyone’s control. Think about it; what if you fell sick and weren’t able to come through? They’d be devastated.”

She might have been just as sickly in her past life, but she was strong and optimistic and could do many things she liked. There had been many regrets too but at least she got to experience more joy than sadness.

“Some time soon, you’ll become a father, Ling. Shouldn’t you set an example for your child?”

Now Liu Duo had his hand in hers, and he placed it on her belly, where their precious unborn baby resided within.

At the same time, Ye Ling’s slightly dispirited gaze fell on her stomach too.
