Upon seeing this, Liu Sisi immediately played with Da Mao, “Da Mao, good boy, call your aunt quickly. If you call aunt, aunt will give you delicious candy.”

Da Mao buried his head in Liu Zhi’er’s shoulder, sneaking a peek at her through the gap. As soon as he noticed Liu Sisi’s gaze, he quickly retreated back into Liu Zhi’er’s arms, still not speaking.

“Looking at Da Mao’s expression, he’s clearly much more spirited. If we guide him well, he will definitely be able to talk and laugh like other children and grow up safely.”

“Yes! Definitely! Absolutely!”

Liu Zhi’er nodded vigorously, unable to help laughing, and blushed with embarrassment: “Look at me, I’m so happy that my tears… I’m just too happy.”

“I understand, we’re sisters, how could I not understand!”

Liu Sisi hurriedly patted Liu Zhi’er’s hand, and the two sisters exchanged a smile.

On the other side, Di Yelei didn’t stop after setting off the firecrackers. He brought out rice and led Di Xuan and his son to the village entrance, where they sprinkled rice and lit incense candles and paper money before returning home.

However, just as he turned back to the doorway, he brought good news.

“Hey! Tonight is going to be incredible! Mr. Land Officer is paying for it, and there’s going to be a big performance at the grain-drying field in the village for all of us to watch. Everyone’s bringing their stools and heading over there! They’re almost filling up the field! Let’s hurry and join them!”

Di Yelei was full of excitement, and as he spoke, he hurried inside to fetch benches.

Upon hearing that there was excitement to be witnessed, YingEr was the first to jump for joy: “Dad! Wait for YingEr too, YingEr wants to go! YingEr wants to go!”

While talking, she began following her father and ran into the house.

As soon as he heard the commotion, Da Mao began to struggle in Liu Zhi’er’s arms, quickly breaking free and following closely behind YingEr.

Worried, Liu Zhi’er called out, “Da Mao, run slower!”

This was not an era of constant entertainment, so even Liu Sisi couldn’t help but be tempted!

Such a rare chance for entertainment couldn’t be missed.

The whole group proceeded down the hill together.

Leading the way was Di Yelei, who was carrying a stack of wooden stools and a torch, followed closely by Elderly Mr. Di with Xuan’er’s help, then YingEr who was chattering as she walked, and Da Mao who was trailing behind her like a little drag cart.

Liu Sisi couldn’t help but place a hand on her abdomen, fearing its safety in the crowded situation. What if something happened and the baby was hurt?

Unable to resist her inner desire, she decided to stand far away and watch the performance.

Feeling that someone was missing, she turned around and saw that Liu Zhi’er hadn’t come along.

“Second Sister, why aren’t you following? Aren’t you going to watch the show?”

Liu Zhi’er quietly retreated two steps: “Little Sister, I… How can I leave the house unattended? I’ll stay home and look after it, and maybe… maybe cut some window paper-cuts.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Sisi naturally understood.

Instinctively, she wanted to persuade her otherwise, but changed her mind at the last moment: “You… That’s fine, I’m just worried about leaving the house unattended. But you don’t have to worry too much, Ah-Huang and Ah-Hua are at home too, you can just close the door.”

“Okay, I got it!”

With that, Liu Zhi’er happily turned around and went back into the house.

It seemed like Second Sister was genuinely happy!

But it was a good thing that she has the motivation. At least this way, it showed that she had come out of the shadows and started her new life.

Liu Sisi walked slowly, and by the time she got halfway down, Di Yelei had already come back with a torch. Seeing Liu Sisi slowly walking on the road, his tone was slightly unpleasant: “Why didn’t you take a torch? What would you do if you accidentally slipped?”

He certainly hadn’t forgotten how Dou Family’s woman had lost her life!

“It’s fine, just look over there, it’s so bright, this path isn’t dark at all, I can see it clearly.”

“It doesn’t matter if you can see the path clearly, come! You take the torch, I’ll carry you!”

As he spoke, he handed the torch in his hand to her. As she reached for it, he quickly crouched down, intending to pick her up.

Liu Sisi’s face turned red all of a sudden, but luckily it was night time, and her embarrassment was well concealed.

“You don’t… There are so many people on this grain-drying field, if the fellow villagers see this, who knows what they’ll say.” It might even become a topic of conversation.

“Why are you afraid? We are husband and wife, let them gossip all they want, as long as we live happily in our daily life.”

Without discussing further, Di Yelei carried her and strode towards the grain-drying field.

“You… of course you won’t hear it!” Liu Sisi pouted: “It’s only when women are together that they talk about these things. You men, these big tough guys, run out all day long, how would you know about this? Hmph!”

Liu Sisi, lying on his back with her arms around his neck, bit his shoulder in defiance.

“Ouch! Ouch, that hurts…”

Di Yelei pretended to cry out: “Sisi, I bet you bit off a big chunk of meat from my shoulder, you can see the teeth marks!”

Liu Sisi was also amused by him and couldn’t help but loosen her grip: “Nonsense! I didn’t bite hard, what are you yelling for?”

“Who says it’s not painful? Although my shoulder doesn’t hurt, my heart does! Sisi…”

Di Yelei intentionally teased Liu Sisi, and the two of them chatted and laughed all the way. They soon reached the edge of the grain-drying field, where the sound of gongs and drums had already started.

Although it was night time, the grain-drying field was very well lit, and the stage was brightly lit by the burning torches.

Even under these conditions, Di Yelei carrying Liu Sisi was still seen by quite a few people.

Teasing voices soon spread.

“Yo! Di Yelei, I never knew! It turns out you have such great skills in managing your wife. You’re so afraid of her, huh?”

“Exactly! Uncle Di, if you didn’t carry her tonight, watch out for her making you kneel down for her when you get back home tonight! What are you going to do then?”

“I bet he hasn’t had dinner yet! Hahaha…”

This comment suddenly made everyone burst into laughter.

Di Yelei boldly let Liu Sisi down and showed no sign of awkwardness.

“Go away! Hehe… What do you youngsters know? Your Aunt Di is pregnant now, so I’m worried she might slip and hurt the child in her belly if she walks in the dark!”

His voice was incredibly loud, and he looked triumphantly around at the people nearby.

People beside him were attracted by his words, and they all turned their eyes away from the stage.

“Yo! Brother Third Son Di, that’s manly! So, Auntie is pregnant! Congratulations, congrats indeed.”

Everyone around gave a thumbs up and praised, making Liu Sisi too shy to raise her head.

Di Yelei next to her grinned and laughed louder, showing off even more, his tail almost reaching the sky!
