“Come on, let’s go eat.” Li Hua hastily pushed the three people towards the kitchen, then he went to the western hut and informed his oldest brother of this matter.

Li Mo’s expression wasn’t good. “Fourth brother, you can go eat. I’ll handle this matter.”

“En.” Li Hua knew that only his oldest brother had the right to interfere in his second brother’s problem.

Li Mo rubbed his hands together and went outside too. He came to the eastern hut and saw that Mudan was putting the bowl away. After that, she stayed leaning by the cabinet and kept wiping her tears with her handkerchief. Her crumpled expression looked quite pitiful.

Li Mo did his best to make his voice softer as he said, “Mudan ah.”

“Older brother Mo.” Mudan didn’t turn her head. Instead, she used her handkerchief to vigorously wipe away her tears as if she was afraid of embarrassing herself by crying in front of someone.

Li Mo lightly sighed and continued, “Never mind. Don’t come looking for Li Yan in the future.”

“Older brother Mo?” Mudan turned her head to look at Li Mo in surprise.

Although Li Mo’s tone was gentle, his gaze was still sharp. “You know that my family already has a wife. Moreover, you’re already engaged too. If you keep acting like this, it won’t be good for either of you.”

Tears immediately welled up and fell from Mudan’s eyes. “I know that. Older brother Mo, you know that I’ve liked older brother Li Yan since we were children. Besides, my dad has relented. As long as we can gather up twenty silver taels, he’ll agree for me to marry older brother Li Yan.”

“The problem isn’t about money.” Although Li Mo felt it was somewhat cruel to shatter a girl’s dream, he had to do it. “Mudan, I’ve seen how you’ve felt about my second brother all these years. If my second brother had the slightest amount of feelings for you, as his oldest brother, I would be willing to sacrifice everything to help him.”

His words were straightforwardly clear. Li Yan wasn’t interested in her at all.

Mudan seemed as if she couldn’t accept this. Her body suddenly weakened, and she leaned on the cabinet for support. She lightly shook her head and said, “No, I do have a place in older brother Li’s heart. He saved my life. He…”

“Back then, he just happened to pass by and see that you were drowning. Under that type of circumstance, no one would just stand by and do nothing. Besides, he’s been good friends with your older brother since we were children. He only sees you as a younger sister,” said Li Mo.

Mudan suddenly mustered up her courage and loudly interrupted him, “No, it’s not like that. He clearly likes me.”

Li Mo tightly pursed his lips together and stared at her with a steely gaze.

Mudan suddenly seemed as if someone had taken away her soul. She didn’t have the strength to keep standing. “Older brother Mo…”

“Enough, go home,” Li Mo slowly said, “Don’t come looking for Li Yan in the future.”

Mudan was leaning against the cabinet. She hid her face with her sleeve as she sobbed like a songbird.

Finished speaking, Li Mo turned to leave the hut.

Li Yan was standing at the doorway. “Oldest brother.”

Li Mo looked at him. “Go eat breakfast.”

“En.” Li Yan stopped looking at the crying person in the hut and directly followed his oldest brother to the kitchen.

Mudan was left alone and ignored in the eastern hut. After she had aggrievedly cried for a while by herself, she finished packing up the bowl in the small basket and left with it.
