Chapter 241 - 241: Longer
The ox cart slowly moved.
Su Ze carried a child in each hand and sat opposite Su Li and He Yufeng. The three of them discussed the scenery along the way.
There was a huge age gap between the three of them. Logically speaking, they shouldn’t be able to talk to each other. Who knew that they were chatting more happily than anyone else and were completely in a state of self-absorption?
As soon as Riceball got on the ox cart, it found a seat and started to sleep. It felt that its birth characters clashed with this ox cart. Every time it sat on this ox cart, it would feel dizzy. It could not open its eyes, and most importantly, it felt like vomiting.
It didn’t know what caused it, but it didn’t dare to show it. It was afraid that Su Li wouldn’t bring it out in the future, so it might as well pretend to be asleep.
This way, no one would be able to tell that it was uncomfortable. Look at how smart it was!
Compared to the liveliness opposite them, Su Li and He Yufeng were much quieter. Other than chatting for a while, the two of them had nothing else to say.
Su Li had been thinking hard about all kinds of illnesses. The book that Glutinous Ball had given her last time had really benefited her greatly. Many of her doubts were immediately cleared up when she saw that book.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew over. Su Li’s black hair reached He Yufeng’s face. At such a close distance, he could smell the fragrance on her beautiful hair.
He Yufeng did not reach out to remove the hair. Instead, he maintained his position and closed his eyes. He even prayed that the gust of wind would blow for a longer time.
However, the wind could not understand what He Yufeng meant at all. It stopped after blowing for a while.
He Yufeng opened his eyes in disappointment. He looked at Su Li, who was beside him. The sunlight shone on her face. At this moment, she looked so beautiful.
Ever since last time, although the two of them slept on the same bed, they did not do anything more than last time.
Sometimes, he felt a strong desire in his heart, but he tried his best to restrain it. They were clearly husband and wife, but he did not understand why he did this. Perhaps he wanted to obtain her heart first?
Su Li had no idea what He Yufeng was thinking. If she knew that there were so many inner dramas under that cold face, she would have eaten him up long ago.
He Yufeng looked at Su Li’s side profile and said, “If you’re tired, lean on my shoulder and sleep for a while! You haven’t rested well these past few days.”
He felt that Su Li had not rested well for the past few days. The green color under her eyes was still there.
Su Li shook her head and said, “I’m not sleepy!”
For the past few days, she had slept very late every night to study the book that Glutinous Ball had given her. Because she stayed with He Yufeng at night, it was very inconvenient for her to enter the interspace, so she could only read it at night.
It would have been fine if He Yufeng hadn’t said anything just now, but she was really a little sleepy.
Su Li yawned. She felt her eyelids closing uncontrollably. She still remembered that there was a free tool beside her, so she leaned over.
He Yufeng sensed a heavy object leaning on his shoulder. He looked down and saw Su Li’s head.
The corners of He Yufeng’s mouth twitched happily. He took off his coat and draped it over Su Li. His careful appearance made Su Ze’s teeth ache.
He Qingyao and He Qingmu looked at them with shining eyes. It was great that their parents were like this. They had never been like this before. The villagers always said that their mother would leave them.
Although they did not like their mother in the past, they knew that they could not become children without a mother. They were always a little afraid that their parents would separate and they would become unwanted children.
He Yufeng gestured for them to keep quiet.
He Qingyao and He Qingmu nodded obediently and did not say anything.
Su Li rubbed against He Yufeng’s shoulder, adjusted her position, and fell asleep.
The ox cart stopped, and Su Li opened her eyes.
“Are we here?”
He Yufeng nodded gently. “We’re here.”
Su Li stretched and jumped down from the ox cart first.
When the villagers saw that their family had returned, they could not help but point at them.
Su Li, He Yufeng, and the others were already used to it, so their expressions were normal.
Su Ze was quite thick-skinned. Moreover, he was also the topic of discussion in the Su Family Village, so he was really not afraid of others talking about him. After all, a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. His reputation was not good to begin with. Was he afraid of this?
“Come, Uncle will carry you back.” Su Ze hugged He Qingyao and He Qingmu.
“Uncle, we’ve already grown up and can walk on our own!”
“In Uncle’s eyes, you will always be children.”
He Mingshan came back from the fields with water. When he saw He Qingyao and He Qingmu, he ran over excitedly.
“Qingyao, Qingmu, you’re finally back. I’ve missed you guys so much recently.”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu did not know about the grudges between the adults. They smiled and said, “We went to stay at Grandma’s house for a few days and only came back today.”
They then introduced Su Ze to their little friend. “This is my uncle. He’s very good to us. He’s also very strong. He can carry the two of us home in one go.”
Su Ze, whose arm was a little sore, was about to put them down when he heard their words. He immediately raised his head and puffed out his chest, telling himself not to embarrass his nephews.
Su Li watched as the few of them chatted happily and said calmly, “Let’s go back. ”
She did not want to interact with He Dahai’s family now. Although He Mingshan was innocent, his parents were not.
He Mingshan followed He Qingyao and He Qingmu excitedly. The three of them chatted about the interesting things that had happened recently. Su Li couldn’t say anything. After all, their house was just next door. She couldn’t possibly ask him not to follow them!
They walked to the door of the house.
He Mingshan said reluctantly, “Can I play with you guys tonight?”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu did not agree. Instead, they glanced at Su Li and asked her for her opinion.
Su Li said, “We just came back and our house is quite messy. We might have to tidy up today. We’ll talk about it when we’re free in the future!”
He Mingshan was a little disappointed to hear her rejection, but he thought that since their houses were so close to each other, it was convenient for him to come over and play. He said a few words to the brothers and skipped home.
He Dahai walked out of the house and happened to see He Mingshan and the two brothers chatting. His face darkened.
He Dahai blamed all of this on Su Li and He Yufeng. If not for the two of them, he would not have ended up in such a miserable state.
Su Li also saw He Dahai, especially his resentful gaze. She received them all, but she did not care. The final punishment for such a person was to keep him in the mud, while she had long stood on the clouds that he could only dream of..
