Liu Duo heard Liu's voice while she was brushing. She looked over and said, "You're making a fuss!"
The two men approached the well, and the family of five was all crowded around the same spot.
They had a simple breakfast. Liu Duo fried a potful of bamboo shoots and placed them in other smaller pots of the same size, so they wouldn't be dirtied.
"Yang, you're really not coming with us?" Liu Duo asked. The few of them had carried the bamboo shoots filled in wooden barrels to the village entrance and placed them on Wang Tuozi's ox-cart.
"You guys go," Ye Yang repeated. He was no use where they were going.
Ye Ling didn't go either. He claimed he wouldn't be of much help, since he didn't know how to sell things. Ye Mo wanted to go, but Liu Duo never asked him!
"Mo, you come with us," Ye Ling turned to speak to him. He knew Mo wanted to join them.
Ye Mo looked at Liu Duo silently, pulling a long face.
