Ye Ling was currently busy slicing up the leftover wild boar head into pieces. Some were rubbed with salt to prevent them from going rotten. The boar head was also cut into two pieces.

Liu Duo went to the kitchen and leaned against the door. “Ling, have you finished? If you’ve finished, can we go out for a walk?

Ye Ling’s face was lit up with a smile whenever he heard Liu Duo’s voice. “Okay. I’ve finished. While we are on our way, let’s bring some meat to Third Aunt.”

In the past, Ye Ling didn’t smile a lot. The first reason was that he always felt that he was a burden to his three brothers. The second reason was that he felt inferior, because of the problem with his legs. He stumbled when he walked, and it didn’t look good. The village children always made fun of his walking.

Ever since Liu Duo ran away and woke up, in these two days they interacted, he became much more cheerful and started to smile more and more.

He tied two pieces of meat with twine and carried them in his hand. It was about five or six grams. “Let’s go. We will go to Third Aunt’s first, then I will bring you to take a look at our family’s vegetable fields and paddy fields.”

“Sounds great…”

Ye Ling brought Liu Duo out after telling Ye Yang.

While Liu Duo walked on countryside paths, she looked at the faraway mountains and water, and the blooming wildflowers. This put her in an especially good mood. Having unpolluted air really puts people in a comfortable mood.

Liu Duo’s smile created very deep dimples at the sides of her mouth. She opened up her arms and took a deep breath. “Coming out feels so refreshing. The air is so good!”

The ancient time, without chemical pollution, was definitely better than the 21st century by thousands of times!

“As long as Duo Er likes it. In the future, if you want to come out, then just come out.” Yu Ling was happy as long as Liu Duo was happy. After all, she would definitely be bored, since she hadn’t left the house for two days

“Okay. In the future, let’s come out more often.” The excited Liu Duo held Ye Ling’s arm and smiled.

Being held by the arm by Liu Duo while walking made Ye Ling’s face red and his heart race. He wanted Liu Duo to let go, but he was also afraid to make Liu Duo unhappy.

During this time period, it didn’t matter if they were husband and wife, man and woman weren’t allowed to have such intimate activities in the day.

Some of the villagers saw Liu Duo holding Ye Ling. They pointed at them, “Who is that girl holding on to a man so shamelessly?”

“That man looks like the fourth brother in the Ye family. That woman should be the shared wife that was bought! Why else would they be walking together?”

“They are really offending public morals. One look and one would know she is a seductress.”

…

Liu Duo listened to the sounds of the discussions and paid them no mind. She went her own way. Let people say what they want! Having watched historical programs on television and having studied history textbooks, she possessed an adequate understanding of the conditions and customs of ancient times.

“Duo Er, why don’t you stop holding onto me. Let’s walk side by side.” He didn’t want Liu Duo to be criticized by the villagers. If this continues, Liu Duo’s reputation would become worse in the future.

“Why not? Do you hate me?” Liu Duo deliberately made it seemed like she was wronged and held on tighter.

“No, of course not. I’m just….just…I.” Ye Ling did not know how to explain. He didn’t want Liu Duo’s reputation to be ruined but also didn’t’ want Liu Duo to be unhappy.

“Haha… Ling, you are so cute.” Liu Duo felt that Ye Ling’s current expression was especially funny. He couldn’t handle teasing at all.

“Okay fine. Don’t mind what others say. You can’t control what others’ say. If they want to gossip, let them gossip. It’s not like it’s going to affect me in any way, right?”

“If I’m not afraid, then what do you have to be afraid of? Moreover, you are my man, my husband. It is right and proper for me to hold onto you! If it were another man, I wouldn’t agree, even if he begged me to hold his arm!”

“Moreover, we didn’t do anything. What is there to say? People who have done nothing bad are innocent. People who have, are guilty. Understand?” Liu Duo was giving Ye Ling an ideological education to stop him from being so feudalistic.

But she also let go of his hand, which she had been holding. After all, established social norms were not able to be changed in such a short period of time. However, Liu Duo was confident in slowly changing her own man.
