Chapter 171 - Traveling Together (6)
Later, someone was able to recognize that the man was Li family's second son, and he was chasing his wife.
And so, in less than a day, a rumor spread throughout the village that Li family's second son was too full of testosterone and constantly wanted to do that thing with his wife. Eventually, the wife wasn't willing, so that's why he ended up chasing after her today.
Li Man was gasping for breath as she ran home. When she arrived, instead of going to the eastern hut, she went to her hut instead and collapsed onto the bed to catch her breath.
"Little creature." Smiling at her, Li Yan leaned against the doorway with one hand holding the doorframe. His face wasn't flushed, and he wasn't out of breath either.
Li Man suddenly turned her head and glared at him, but then she suddenly noticed that most of her anger had dissipated while she was running. Even the anger in her glare wasn't as strong as before.
"Alright, take your time. I'm going to look for oldest brother," Li Yan deeply looked at her for moment. His gaze looked extremely gentle.
Li Man rubbed her arms and didn't want to think about his eyes that were full of deep feelings.
Once her breathing was even again, she went to the eastern hut too.
She didn't know what Li Yan had said to Li Mo before she got here, but she saw Li Mo repeatedly nodding and saying "Good, good."
When Li Mo saw Li Man coming inside, the two brothers stopped their discussion, and their gazes landed on her.
Li Man suddenly felt uneasy. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"
Unsettled, she walked to Little Five's side and sat down next to him.
Little Five showed her the sand tray and pointed at two lines of characters. "Older sister, these two lines were written by me and oldest brother. Look, which set of lines look better?" He didn't point out which line was written by who. He wanted to see if Li Man could distinguish the difference.
Li Man quickly used this opportunity to change the topic. She seriously looked at the sand tray. "They both look good. They're both properly written. But if I'm judging by accuracy to the standard form, the line above is slightly better. In line below, the left-slanting downward stroke in the Li character is slightly out of proportion. If that's improved, it'll be even better."
After hearing these words, Little Five laughed and happily clapped his hands. "Older sister, I wrote the line on top."
In actuality, Li Man had already figured that out. She rubbed Little Five's head and smiled. "Oh, so that was written by Little Five. You've improved a lot."
Little Five giggled in happy excitement and proudly looked at Li Mo.
Li Mo's gaze was full of affection. For Little Five to be able to write well, that made him happier than if he had been the one to receive Li Man's praise.
On the side, Li Yan held back his smile. He looked at Li Man and said, "That's really good. You even taught Little Five and oldest brother how to write. On another day, teach me how to write too."
"I -"
Just as Li Man was about to refuse, Little Five was already so excited that he almost jumped up. "Yeah, it would great if we can all together. If you guys don't know something, I can teach you too."
"That'll depend on your ability. Other than writing names, do you know anything else?" Li Yan stretched his hand out and gently flicked his finger against Little Five's forehead.
"I only know a few characters. It's enough for Little Five to play with and to help oldest brother relieve his boredom, but I don't know enough to qualify as a teacher."
"My dear teacher, is it because you can't or because you don't want to?" Li Yan teased her.
In front of Li Mo and Little Five, she didn't feel comfortable with flaring up in anger.
