The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 36 - 36: 36 faces red



Could it be that his refusal to cook lunch for her upset their benefactor, or did he want to drive her away, angering the benefactor?

She hadn’t noticed if they had exchanged any words when the benefactor had stormed into the yard and started fighting.

She may have missed that, as she couldn’t really hear anything.

Even if that wasn’t the reason, she was sure that the benefactor had beaten up his third brother for her sake.

She looked at Xiao Yuchuan on the ground, gritting his teeth and cursing, unable to get up after trying several times. She couldn’t help but sneer. Why did she feel so satisfied seeing him injured?

Xiao Yuchuan saw that his wife showed no sympathy for him and even mocked him. He found it really hard to digest and snorted through his nose, turning his head away from her.

Su Qingyue originally intended to leave, but seeing his beaten-up condition and his resentful expression, she decided to stay for the time being.

She would stay to annoy him!

Drive him crazy!

Leaning against the wall, Xiao Yuchuan struggled to get up and complained to Xiao Yishan, “Second Brother, you really hit hard for the sake of such a stinky old woman…”

As Su Qingyue was looking intently at him, she was able to understand what he said from his swollen mouth, despite her deafness.

So the benefactor was his second brother, and he really beat him up for her sake.

Her mood lifted significantly.

She wished he’d beat the petty cat to death. How dare he call her a stinky old woman…

If their benefactor and the petty cat were the second and third sons in the family, then there must be an elder one, right? Was that the case with the person in the secondary bedroom?

She did not know that the Xiao family had an eldest sister who was already married, and the person in the room was the fourth son, not the eldest son.

However, that was none of her concern.

But their benefactor had beaten up his own third brother for her sake. He had been so kind to her, yet she almost left without telling him because of his younger brother. She felt a bit embarrassed.

Xiao Yishan entered the kitchen and saw the cold pot and stove there. His family had never had the custom of eating lunch, so he didn’t blame his third brother for not cooking.

But looking at his wife’s thin body, he thought that she should have looked older at 15 years old. Girls her age were considered adults and could already get married. Even though she had been bought by his family, he decided that he must treat her well in the future.

How could she bear children for him if she was so thin?

He thought for a moment and called out to Xiao Yuchuan in the yard, “Third Brother, my wife is really too thin. How about cooking her a separate lunch from now on?” Their brothers would just skip lunch and save food.

Xiao Yuchuan also had the same intention and promptly agreed.

Xiao Yishan thought his agreement was out of guilt for trying to sell his wife behind his back. “Her right wrist is injured, and her internal injury is not light. I’ll often have to go hunting, so if you have time, help her with her medicine,” he said kindly.

“I know!” Xiao Yuchuan reluctantly agreed, feeling that there was no need for his second brother to tell him this. She was also his wife, so how could he ill-treat her?

Thinking of the eighteen packs of medicine that his second brother had gotten from Doctor Sun, he planned to return the remaining seventeen packs after selling his wife.

Looking at her delicate figure with her back towards him, he felt a surge of guilt, as he shouldn’t have thought that way.

When Xiao Yishan heard his third brother’s impatient response, he understood his reluctance, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing his wife standing at the kitchen doorway looking at him with her clear and beautiful eyes like autumn water, he couldn’t help but blush on his resolute face..
