Chapter 259: He Hated Dogs, And Cats Too

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

When Ye Mo came back from the paddy fields, he saw Liu Duo playing with Hei Xiaomeng, while Ye Yang observed them. The puppy noticed Ye Mo return and rushed to him, barking.

Hei Xiaomeng seemed small and plump, but his bark was quite loud. Imagine how it would sound like when it got bigger!

“Where did this dumb dog come from? His bark is annoying!” He furrowed his brow, as he was reminded of how much he hated dogs.

He hadn’t liked dogs, or cats either, ever since he was young. It was as though he was never destined to be with them.

Liu Duo called out, “Stop it, Hei Xiaomeng. That’s Little Mo. He’s family. Only bark at strangers from now on. Got it?”

It seemed that Liu Duo loved it very much, from the way she patted its head, “This is Hei Xiaomeng – not some dumb dog! I bought it for fifty taels.”

Ye Mo shrieked when he heard that, “What? A dumb dog for fifty taels? Have you lost your mind!”

Ye Liu and Ye Ling rushed out from the kitchen when they heard the scream. Ye Yang furrowed his brow, displeased by Ye Mo’s reaction.

“Little Mo, what was that for?” Ye Liu looked at him.

Ye Ling guessed that Ye Mo must have known that Liu Duo bought the puppy for fifty taels and reacted the way he did. “Mo, it’s alright as long as Duo Er likes it. You don’t have to shout.”

Liu Duo massaged her ears and rolled her eyes at him, “No, you’ve lost it! Can you not raise your voice at me? Do you know money can’t buy wishes? I like Hei Xiaomeng, so I’ll get him even if it costs me a hundred taels!”

Even though Ye Yang and Ye Liu also felt that fifty taels was expensive for a dog, they didn’t say anything, since Liu Duo was happy with her purchase.

Ye Mo couldn’t get past it. In the beginning, the brothers had bought her for twenty taels, then she went ahead and spent fifty taels on a dog! What was most infuriating was that she said she liked it! She had never ever said she liked him!

“Where did this dumb dog come from? Return it!” Ye Mo stared at it in disgust.

“I bought it home to guard our house!”

“Just lock it! Who needs a dog?”

“Little Mo, Little Duo wants to keep it. Your nonsense is ineffective, since all three of us agree to get a dog.”

With that, Ye Liu and Ye Ling resumed their kitchen duties.

Liu Duo ignored him and continued doting on the puppy. Ye Mo got so mad he went to the well and brushed the mud off his legs with all his might, not realizing when he had cleaned it off.

He went to sit under the roof after scraping the mud off his legs, and he spotted white kitten in a cage.

He stood up abruptly, “And why is there a cat here? How much does this one cost?”

Don’t tell me this cost another fifty taels! Ye Mo imagined that his heart couldn’t take anymore of this.

Liu Duo replied to him while she continued feeling the puppy’s fur. She didn’t bother to turn her head, “We can’t have a dog without a cat! Bai Xiaojiao wasn’t expensive – just fifty wen.”

At least it’s not fifty taels! Ye Mo relaxed, although he was frustrated by the two new residents!

Bai Xiaojiao kept purring in her cage, while Hei Xiaomeng barked non-stop whenever he heard something. The noise caused Ye Mo to have a serious headache! He really wanted to get rid of the two creatures!

“Stop making that noise! Any more of that and I’ll grill you to eat!” Ye Mo glared at the two pets, keeping his voice low.

When lunch was ready, Liu Duo gave some meat to the two new members of the household, and the two finally fell silent. “Oh, you’re hungry! You two are still young so you better eat more.”
