The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Xiao Yishan didn’t notice his wife was upset and volunteered, “Third brother, let me help you…”

Just about to get off the bed, Su Qingyue shouted at him, “Didn’t you hear me telling you not to get off the bed for ten days!”

Ice formed on Xiao Yishan’s resolute and rough face.

The room suddenly became very quiet.

The atmosphere was tense, and no one said a word.

Su Qingyue casually scraped off the rice in the bowl, didn’t eat any more vegetables, put down her bowl and chopsticks, and went out to the yard.

She squatted down, held Xiao Yuchuan up, lifted his two arms on her shoulders, and carried him on the bed in the room. She said coldly, “I’m done eating. You guys take your time.”

With that, she left the room.

The three men in the room were silent.

After a while, Xiao Yishan spoke coldly, “Third brother, you can’t move, let me feed you.”

“Forget it, second brother. I don’t feel like eating now.” Xiao Yuchuan raised his head to look out of the door and saw his wife entering the kitchen. He thought he couldn’t move his entire body, but his strength gradually returned, “Huh… I seem to be able to move…”

“It seems I’m back to normal, just like before seeing my wife…” He sat up, leaning on the edge of the bed.

“Well, that’s good.” Xiao Yishan nodded slightly.

Xiao Yuchuan looked puzzled, “I don’t think I was poisoned. My wife was just bluffing me. I did kiss her face, but I spat the medicine on my lips and wiped it off immediately, without swallowing it.”

Xiao Qinghe’s clear eyes showed confusion, “So third brother, you were faking the numbness all over your body earlier?”

“No, I really felt numb all over.” He seemed thoughtful, “I think my wife is up to something.”

“She’s probably just teasing you.” Xiao Qinghe looked at his third brother and couldn’t help but sigh, “Third brother, sometimes you are just like my wife said, you deserve a beating.”

Xiao Yishan didn’t know why his wife was angry and yelled at him, making a face. Could it be… she was intentionally distancing herself from him?

His deep eyes were cold, and his heart couldn’t help sinking.

There were still half a bowl of rice left in Xiao Yishan’s bowl. Their family had always been struggling, so he wasn’t one to waste. After finishing the half bowl, he didn’t add more rice.

There was a large bowl on the table, half a bowl of rice left, equivalent to several bowls’ worth.

In the past few days, they would not only finish the contents in the bowl but also add another large bowl after.

Today, no one touched it.

“Second brother, aren’t you eating?” Xiao Qinghe asked with concern.

He shook his head.

“Third brother, how about you?”

Xiao Yuchuan also shook his head, “I don’t feel like eating either.”

Xiao Yishan gave him a suspicious side-eye, “Weren’t you complaining about being hungry just now?”

“I just wanted to trick my wife into helping me.” Yuchuan looked apologetic, “Second brother, it’s my fault. I didn’t know I had done something to upset my wife.”

“It might not be your fault.” His huge fists clenched imperceptibly. He thought of grabbing his wife and spanking her butt, and peeling her heart out to see if there was a shadow of his, Xiao Yishan!

Xiao Qinghe actually admired his sister-in-law quite a bit. He was eight years younger than his second brother, and their parents died early on, so he had always looked up to his second brother in a special way. He would never dare to yell at his second brother, but his wife dared to slap him in the face.

Xiao Yishan’s face was cold and stern, not saying a word, just staring coldly at the kitchen.

The other two were also quiet and didn’t speak any more.

Su Qingyue prepared a bowl of rice porridge in the kitchen..
