After lunch, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu went into her space to bathe and change their clothes. When they came out, they packed the seeds, two waterproof blankets, and a few gifts for Aunt Lin.
Since their bicycle had been borrowed by Lu Cheng, they walked to Li Lingyun's house. Ten minutes later, Li Chenmo knocked on the gate and called out, "Second brother, are you home?"
Before long, the gate opened, and Li Lingyun greeted them.
"Third brother, Third sister-in-law, you're here. Please come in," he said while gesturing for them to enter.
After they stepped inside, he closed and locked the gate before leading them to the living room. As they walked, he asked, "Third brother, did you bring what I asked for?"
Li Chenmo chuckled when he heard his words and nodded, "I brought two for you. That should be enough. Second brother, you shouldn't overdo it or you will harm your health. Remember to do everything in moderation."
Hearing her husband's words, Lu Jueyu glanced at him but said nothing. He spoke as if he practiced moderation when, in reality, he was worse than a beast in heat whenever they were in bed.
Unfortunately, he was her husband, and as his wife, she couldn't expose him and let him be laughed at. After all, who could she blame for loving such a shameless man besides herself?
Unaware of his wife's thoughts, Li Chenmo asked, "Second brother, we heard from your wife that your friend is interested in Aunt Lin's niece. Is he serious?"
"Well, in all the years I have known him, this is the first time he has ever taken the initiative to ask about a woman. So, I would say he is serious," Li Lingyun replied.
Hearing this, both Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo felt relieved. They didn't want to damage their relationship with Aunt Lin over a stranger's affairs.
As long as Jiang Ziyu was sincere, they had no problem helping. But if he was half-hearted, they would refuse.
When they reached the living room, Jiang Ziyu was already waiting. Seeing them enter, he stood up and greeted them, "Brother Chenmo, Sister-in-law."
"Brother Jiang," Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo greeted him with a smile before taking their seats.
Shortly after, Pan Meijia arrived carrying a tray. Seeing her, Li Lingyun quickly stepped forward to take it from her while saying, "Wife, you should have called me to help."
"Husband, it's not heavy—I can do it myself," Pan Meijia replied.
"Didn't you complain that your hands were sore this morning? Don't carry heavy things until you are better," Li Lingyun said with a frown.
At his words, the room fell silent as everyone lowered their gazes. Though he hadn't said anything outright, it was clear from Pan Meijia's flushed face what he was referring to.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Pan Meijia lightly smacked her husband's arm and whispered, "Husband, can't you watch your words? There are guests here."
