Chapter 100 – Jealousy (1)
Seeing that his expression had slightly stiffened, Li Man immediately realized that she had let something slip . Just like in modern-day, if someone said they didn’t know where the capital was, it would create suspicion .
“I told you about this before . ” Seemingly in the next second, her expression turned desolate . In a low voice, she said, “Since that time I was hanged, I lost all of my memories . To be honest, I… . I don’t even remember who you guys are . Honestly, I… feel really upset over this . ”
Li Hua didn’t believe that she would tell lies, but it was hard to believe that she had forgotten everything . “Then… Do you want regain your memories?”
Li Man quickly nodded . Her limpid, big eyes looked at him, and she very seriously said, “En, I want to regain my memories of everyone . ”
Without a good reason, his heart felt warm . And yet, it was accompanied and followed by a bit of pain . “What if you regain your memory, and we don’t exist in those memories?”
“How could that be possible?” She was also a member of this family . How could her memories not have them?
“What if?” Li Hua stubbornly continued to ask .
“If I don’t have memories of this family?” Li Man couldn’t figure it out . She was clearly a member of this family, ah . Oh… Right, perhaps, she had only recently joined this family . But then, had she married into this family? Did she have a maiden family?
“I want to ask you something . ”
Hearing her suddenly asking something, Li Hua felt a jolt of fear . “What?”
“You called me wife . Your second brother and third brother also called me wife too . What exactly is going on?” It didn’t seem like they were just joking around .
“…” Li Hua stared deeply into her eyes . Her eyes were as clear as a spring without any trace of trying to conceal something . She truly had no idea that her current identity was… Li family’s shared wife .
He suddenly felt guilty and didn’t dare to tell her the truth .
“Tell me,” Li Man felt anxious .
Li Hua’s tightly pursed his lips moved . He hesitantly said, “This… it’s not important . You’ll know in the future . ”
“In the future? How long will that be?” Li Man continued to question .
“That…” Just as Li Hua wasn’t sure how to respond, he heard a voice coming from the entrance . It was Little Five greeting his oldest brother and third brother .
“Oldest brother and third brother are back . I’m going to see them . ” Li Hua hurriedly came down from the bed and ran outside .
“Oh . ” Li Man’s heart felt so dejected . Why had he left when they got to the important part? Could it be that she had touched onto some secret that couldn’t be told?
Li Shu put down a large bundle of bamboo under the eaves . Before he had even wiped off his sweat, he ran over to this hut with a big smile and called out, “Wife . ”
Leaning against the window, Li Man rolled her eyes . Wife . He was starting that up again .
Li Shu walked to the side of the bed . Seeing several books out, he curiously asked, “What are you doing? Reading? Wife, you can read fourth brother’s books?”
“Yes . ” Li Man neutrally assented and neatly put Li Hua’s books back into his bag .
“Really?” Li Shu’s eyes brightened . His eyes were overflowing with adoration and worship, “Wife, you’re so amazing . You can even understand fourth brother’s books . ”
“Don’t call me wife anymore . ” After Li Man placed the bag down, she got off the bed .
Li Shu followed behind her . “What should I call you? My old lady? Doesn’t that sound worse than wife?”
Li Man instantly seemed like a bristling kitten that had its tail stepped on . “What wife? What my old lady? You say those words, and your second brother and fourth brother also say that . All three of you call me wife . It couldn’t be that I’m married to the three of you, right?” That would be too ridiculous .
“It’s not that . ” Li Shu hurriedly shook his head .
Li Man rolled her eyes at him . “Exactly, so stop . ” By calling her wife, they were verbally taking advantage of her .
Smiling as he looked at her, Li Shu added, “There’s oldest brother and Little Five too . ”
