Went to Knock

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Liu Duo understood his intentions and let go of her anger. She placed an arm across his shoulder and smiled, "Let's go, Liuzi."

Ye Liu liked her this way. She'd only be mad for a while, and then she would stop after a little bit of coaxing and teasing, unlike some women, who couldn't be helped regardless.

The chief's house was the grandest of them all, with typical blue brick and white tiles, sturdy and reliable. It was very unlike the other residences, which were essentially straw houses, walled with mud. Even the better ones were only able to afford a few more tiles than the others. Otherwise, the roof could be easily blown away by large gusts of wind during heavy rainstorms.

Ye Liu stepped forward and knocked on the yard entrance, "Is the chief home?"

A woman soon appeared to open the door. She wasn't too old, and she appeared to be the chief's daughter-in-law. She was small in size and seemed vulnerable and easy to get along with. "My father-in-law isn't at home," she said.
