âWife, why arenât you talking?â Xiao Yuchuan stared at her expression, âYou were just so angry, usually, youâd be stomping your feet by now.â
âDo you enjoy watching me stomp my feet?â
âYes⦠and noâ¦â Sometimes he wanted to provoke her, but when he really upset her, he felt heartache. Why was his heart so strange?
Su Qingyue looked at Xiao Yuchuan and couldnât help but feel that he was a frivolous and unreliable guy.
As for the second brother and fourth brother, they would eventually get married and have children anywayâ¦
Even if the second brotherâs appearance was ruined and the fourth brother had a lame leg, she believed that they could still find suitable partners.
âYour marriage isnât real, you were just bought there with no rights⦠The Xiao
Family can sell you off at any timeâ¦â She thought of Li Guiâs words.
Li Gui was right, even if the people of the Xiao family were good to her, if given certain benefits, they would probably be willing to sell her as well.
She felt that Li Gui simply didnât have enough money to spend. One hundred taels was not enough. If someone really offered thousands or even tens of thousands of taels, anyone would sell her off.
Malicious love, a match made in heaven, only exists in legends.
She hadnât made much money before, and whatever she made, she handed over to her second brother.
She was not used to having no money on her, and besides, she had promised Li Gui that she wouldnât tell anyone about him and the woman in red.
The eight taels of silver in her arms⦠she would not hand them in.
Otherwise, sheâd have to explain where the money came from.
Su Qingyue didnât expect that there would be misunderstandings later because of these several taels of silver.
âWifeâ¦â Seeing her lost in thought, Xiao Yuchuan waved his hand in front of her, âWhat are you thinking about?â She came to her senses, âNothing.â
âWerenât you frightened by the ghost?â
âThere are no ghosts on Hanging Neck Mountain, youâre overly worried.â
âBut I clearlyâ¦â
She said indifferently, âThe red-clothed female ghost you saw is human. Donât bother probing into who it is.â
âIt really is a person?â
âItâs fine if you think itâs a ghost.â She turned and walked out, âIâm going for a walk.â She had to find out how the fresh ferns in the village were selling. Maybe a new source of income would emerge. âWifeâ¦â Xiao Yuchuan called out worriedly.
She still left the yard.
Xiao Yishan, who was inside the room, sat on the bed with his resolute and stern face full of seriousness, âWife seems unhappyâ¦â
âSecond brother, did I make her angry with my words just now?â Xiao Yuchuan reflected on himself.
âIt doesnât seem so.â Xiao Yishan wasnât that sure either.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Qinghe seemed thoughtful, âItâs definitely not. I saw our wife daydreaming and didnât even pay attention to what third brother said. She must be thinking about other issues.â
âBefore Chuan and I recover from our injuries, we wonât have to worry about money at home.â Xiao Yishan thought of her eyes, âShe doesnât seem to trust us very muchâ¦â
âShe⦠perhaps she doesnât want to stay with the Xiao Family.â Xiao Qingheâs voice was filled with melancholy.
If she wasnât happy staying at the Xiao Family at allâ¦
He didnât want to force her.
âIn any case, Iâve decided that sheâs my wife for the rest of my life!â Xiao Yuchuanâs statement was decisive.
Xiao Yishan didnât speak but his face was just as determined.
Only Qinghe looked lonely, a face of helplessness.
After leaving the house, Su Qingyue headed towards the center of the village. There were many people and lively chatter. Although she sometimes enjoyed the quiet, crowded places were where it was easiest to pick up information.
Little Bastard saw its owner leaving the house and followed behind her.
Before, Qingyue didnât like to take it with her when she went up the mountain. It was best for the newly-weaned little wolf not to walk too much..
