The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

It was very quiet.

He spoke reproachfully, “If you keep treating me so coldly, I won’t prepare the roe deer meat I promised to make for you at noon. You can just eat plain rice!”

Seeing her still irresponsive, he felt rather dispirited, “Wife, tell me the truth, do you really find me too old for you, or are you just teasing me? Are you upset that I didn’t jump into the river to save you when you jumped? I didn’t know at the time, and no one informed me. By the time I found out, second brother already brought you back…”

“Wife, you have to believe, I am very concerned about you.”

“Wife, could you not feel disgusted by me?”

She remained unresponsive, so he yelled out in frustration, “Su Qingyue!”

The birds perched on the fence outside the window were startled into flight.

The world of Qingyue was quiet, almost blissful.

“Stinky old woman, you won’t even answer when I’m speaking earnestly to you,” Xiao Yuchuan grumbled, glaring at her thin, black, pock-marked face,

“let me tell you, within our ten-mile radius, you’re the most unattractive wife. I’m not complaining about you, so you should be self-aware and not complain about me. Understand?!” As soon as the words left his mouth, he regretted it. Actually, he wasn’t really disgusted with her, he was just mad that she wasn’t responding to him.

“Still not saying anything?” Xiao Yuchuan growled in irritation, “I’m way more attractive than you. If it weren’t for the fact that the Xiao Family is a bit poor, there’d be lines of girls waiting to marry me.”

“Hey, at least show some reaction, even a huff would be fine, don’t pretend to be deaf and mute.” He complained angrily, “I know you’re faking your deafness alright! You can understand what I’m saying, stop pretending. It’s fun to pretend once or twice, but too much of it is annoying!”

Indeed, she opened her eyes.

His heart leapt in joy, “Wife, you’re not pretending anymore?” He clutched his belly, “Wife, I can’t take it anymore. I have a stomachache, I’m going to use the bathroom before I return to bond with you.” He hastily got down from the bed and half-ran out the door with one shoe on and one shoe off.

Su Qingyue didn’t hear a single word. She got up slowly and walked to the outside of the house.

She went to the backyard. She remembered there were two date trees and a pomelo tree in the backyard. A little further back, at the farthest end of the fence, there was a small, squat shed.

The small shed was surrounded by a neat rectangle of tree bark and wooden blocks, about two square meters in size. The roof was covered with thatch, and the front door was also a combination of tree bark and wooden blocks.

When she originally took stock of the house, she had noticed from afar this small shed looked exactly like an outhouse.

Now as she got closer, she could smell the stench even ten meters away. As she had guessed, it really was an outhouse.

She had eaten so much food and drunk so much water, but hadn’t been to the restroom yet. She felt like she was going to burst!

Thump! Thump! Splash!

A few fart noises followed by a sound of water trickling resounded from inside the outhouse.

Xiao Yuchuan was in the middle of his satisfying bowel movement when he heard footsteps outside. Second brother had gone to town, and Fourth Brother couldn’t walk. So, it was easy to guess who was coming. He hastily called out, “Wife, I’m taking a dump, don’t come over!”

His wife choosing this moment to come over was even scarier than her piercing cold gaze.

Su Qingyue didn’t hear him and pushed open the door of the outhouse. She saw a man squatting over the outhouse hole, facing her head-on. From her angle, she could clearly see his…

Shit!

Seeing that eye-piercing thing was one thing, but witnessing him in the act was another.

She instantly felt so gloomy that she almost threw up.

He didn’t expect her to just walk in like that.. Xiao Yuchuan quickly jumped up

and pulled up his pants,
