The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 595: 595 Big sister arrived 11

Now this woman has returned.

Because of the three hundred taels she earned as a wife.

Just now, he noticed her expression when she heard that third brother’s medicine cost seventy taels. He was certain that, in her eyes, third brother’s life was not even worth seventy taels.

Not only that, but Xiao Qinghe was also worth less than one cent in her eyes.

Although he didn’t speak about some things, he had lain on the kàng for years with a mind as clear as a mirror.

He closed his eyes and whispered softly, “Qingyue… my wife…”

Su Qingyue sat in the cool air on the chair with a backrest that Xiao Ailiu had moved out earlier, with the little mixed-haired dog at her feet.

Xiao Ailiu was furious in the kitchen. Seeing Su Qingyue sitting there leisurely, her anger grew even more. She thought back to when she first arrived at the house, and the mixed-haired dog barked fiercely at her. It was second brother who stopped the dog from barking.

Now, she sat in the yard on a chair. Although her three brothers had cold expressions, they didn’t force her to leave.

It was only after she had shown Su Qingyue a cold face that the second and third brothers wanted to drive her away.

It must have been because they were fond of that cheap woman, Su Qingyue.

Xiao Ailiu looked at Su Qingyue. Her figure was acceptable, but her face was covered with scabs, which made her look ugly and a disgrace to the Xiao family. It was because the Xiao family was too poor before, and her brothers could not afford to marry. If they could, she was sure that any woman who entered the house would be more favored than Su Qingyue.

Her three brothers shared a wife, yet Su Qingyue was so thin and frail-looking. She didn’t look like someone who could do heavy work, and probably wouldn’t satisfy her three brothers in bed. Moreover, there was only one woman in the house before, so it was no wonder they cherished this ugly woman, Su Qingyue.

“Get up and let me sit!” Xiao Ailiu walked up to Su Qingyue and scolded her.

Su Qingyue was enjoying the night breeze with her eyes closed, not bothering to waste words with her. She opened her eyelids to glance at her for an instant before closing them again.

“Did you hear me…” Xiao Ailiu wanted to grab Su Qingyue but stopped when she saw Xiao Yuchuan wearing new clothes and coming out of the master bedroom, fearing he would chase her away again.

As expected, Xiao Yuchuan scolded, “Xiao Ailiu, what are you doing?”

“Nothing…” She forced a smile. “I just wanted to chat with Su Qingyue.”

“She doesn’t have time for you.” His face was cold.

Xiao Ailiu didn’t argue, “Then I’ll go and chop the firewood…”

“Second brother has already done it. We don’t need your help.”

She had only spoken in passing and hadn’t really intended to do the heavy work of chopping firewood.

Xiao Yuchuan walked over to where Su Qingyue was sitting, beaming, “Wife, look, I’m wearing the new clothes you bought for me. Do they look good?”

Su Qingyue cast him a glance. He was wearing a plain blue robe with a white collar and cuffs and a blue waist belt. The ordinary clothes looked elegant on his tall figure.

His jet-black hair was neatly combed on top of his head and fastened with a square cloth towel. His eyebrows were dark as ink, his eyes shining brighter than the stars in the sky. With the new clothes, his appearance was quite impressive.

“Oh, third brother, I didn’t realize you looked so good in new clothes…” Xiao Ailiu sized him up. “I had no idea our Chuan was so handsome…”

“I didn’t ask you.” Xiao Yuchuan glanced coldly at her before smiling at Su Qingyue. “Wife, what do you think? Do they look good? The new clothes fit perfectly…”
