Fortunate Wife-Chapter 82 – The first night (1)

Li Man was slightly stunned. If this hut was dangerous, then where could she go? This home only had two huts for sleeping.

“What are you doing?” Feeling unsettled, she instinctively grasped his sleeve.

Li Mo’s heart was widely beating too. He was flooded with agitation, but he still tried his best to project a calm demeanor to comfort her. “Don’t worry. We’ll go to the other hut to sleep.”

“We?” Li Man felt even more stupefied. Her eyes were widened as she incredulously stared at Li Mo. What was he thinking of doing by bring her to the other hut? There was only one bed in the eastern hut... Moreover, how could he hold his future sister-in-law like this in front of his younger brother? This was so improper. She instinctively looked at Li Shu.

Contrary to her expectations, after Li Shu heard these words, he yelped and ran back to the eastern hut in excitement. He lit an oil lamp, and the hazy light illuminated every corner of the hut.

Li Yan and Li Hua had also returned to the hut with Li Shu and were self-consciously standing in a corner. As they silently watched through the doorway as their oldest brother carried their wife into their room, they felt an indescribable feeling of excitement.

Li Mo actually was at a loss. There was only one bed in the hut, and Little Five was still asleep. He was worried that Li Man wouldn’t agree, but he didn’t have any other ideas.

In contrast, Li Shu didn’t notice the weirdness of the situation. He excitedly took the lead by climbing onto the heated bed and curled up in his quilt. Then, he stretched his hands out and said to Li Mo, who had just walked inside, “Oldest brother, I can share my quilt with wife.”

The space between Li Mo’s brow was very furrowed. What kind of nonsense was third brother saying? What if these words scared their wife?

Surprisingly, Li Man didn’t look at Li Shu. Instead, she was fiercely glaring at Li Mo. “Put me down.” He better not stuff her underneath Li Shu’s quilt.

Li Mo knew that she was feeling uneasy and tried to comfort her by softly saying, “Stop squirming.” Then, he said to Li Hua, “Fourth brother, is there another a quilt in the cupboard? Take it out if there is one.”

How could there be an extra quilt? Li Hua said, “En.” But, instead of opening the cupboard, he went to the side of the bed and brought over the quilt that he had been using.

Seeing this sight, Li Mo approvingly nodded. Fourth brother’s quilt was the cleanest one.

Li Mo carried Li Man to the bed, gently put her down, and said in soft voice, “Please put up with this for tonight. I’ll help you fix your roof tomorrow.” 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

Li Man innocently bit her bottom lip. Even if she wanted to refuse, she didn’t have a better idea of her own. She couldn’t go to the kitchen to sleep, right? But, how would the other people fit on the bed if an extra person was added?

With her damp quilt wrapped around herself, she awkwardly looked at Li Mo. She had lived for so many years, but this was the first she was sharing a room with several men. Moreover, she would be sleeping on the same bed as them.

Li Shu felt very disappointed with his oldest brother’s choice. He silently grumbled. Why wouldn’t oldest brother place Li Man down with him? He wouldn’t do anything bad to her. Moreover, it was very warm and cozy underneath his quilt. Wife would feel so comfortable sleeping here. Seeing that Li Man was going to sleep at the edge of the bed, he suddenly felt happy and started to hurriedly crawl over there. He wanted to sleep next to her.

Startled, Li Man pulled her body closer to herself.

Li Mo pulled a long face. His voice dropped as he said, “Third brother, go sleep on the other side of the bed.”

“Ah?”

Before Li Shu could protest, Li Mo continued to make the sleeping arrangements. “Fourth brother, you can squeeze in with Little Five.”

“Oh.” Li Hua obediently got into bed and lied down to sleep by Little Five’s side.

And then, without Li Mo needing to say anything, Li Yan shrugged and went back to sleeping in his original position.

However, Li Shu was sitting at the other side of the bed and staring at Li Mo as he asked, “Oldest brother, why does it have to be me that sleeps here?”

“Go to sleep.” Li Mo briefly looked at him in askance, then he extinguished the light and tried to keep his movements as light as possible as he got onto the bed.

Li Shu grunted. He felt very wronged as he gloomily lied down too. His body was as stiff as a corpse as he stared at the ceiling.
