She paused for a moment, a warm feeling spreading through her heart. “Xiao
Qinghe, you are so kind.”
He looked at her tenderly, then continued to wash the sweet potatoes with concentration.
She couldn’t help feeling a little emotional, as he was even focused when doing housework.
Once he finished washing the sweet potatoes, she picked up the wooden basin and poured the water outside the yard, then refilled it twice to clean the filtered water.
“There are no vegetables at home, and I don’t like to eat plain rice.” Su Qingyue glanced at the oil pot on the stove. “I’m going to make fried sweet potato fries, which will require a lot of oil. You don’t have any objections, do you? If you do, it doesn’t matter, I’ll just ask more directly.”
He shook his head, finding his wife quite adorable.
Gazing at his handsome face, she felt that he was nothing like Xiao Yuchuan. She leaned very close to him, almost kissing him, but his face turned red and he wasn’t frightened by her pus-covered face at all.
When Xiao Yuchuan deliberately got close to her, he would call her a “Ghost”. Xiao Yuchuan was always confrontational with her, but Qinghe allowed her to bully him. How could these Mr. Xiao be so different in temperament?
“You’re better than your third brother in every way,” she said casually, placing the sweet potatoes on the cutting board. She picked up the kitchen knife, sliced each sweet potato into thin slices, stacked the slices together, and then cut them into fries one by one.
Surprise flickered in Xiao Qinghe’s eyes. She actually thought he, a disabled man, was better than his third brother? Gratitude filled his heart. “Actually, third brother treats you very well. He might be petty at times, but he’s extremely generous towards you.”
Seeing her not reacting, he realized that she was looking down and ‘couldn’t see’ him speaking.
With her skill and intelligence, even her cooking speed was faster and better than ordinary people. Even by just looking at her, he felt she was no ordinary person.
As she was busy with her hands and head down, concentrating, he knew she couldn’t hear him. “Qingyue,” he dared to say softly, “do you know? I envy second brother and third brother for being able to interact with you openly and treat you well to the best their ability. I’m just disabled, and I don’t even have the chance to be with you. I know I’m not worthy of being your husband, but I secretly rejoice that you are my wife. Even though we are only husband and wife in name. I’m verv haDDV.”
She looked up at his sentimental expression and asked curiously, “Qinghe, what did you just say?”
“Nothing.” He quickly composed himself.
Not pressing further, she quickly sliced all ten sweet potatoes into fries. It was a pity that they didn’t have a peeler, so the fries still had their skin on, but as long as they were cleaned well, it didn’t matter.
Xiao Qinghe marveled at the neat and fast cutting on the cutting board. She was obviously well-practiced in the kitchen.
If it wasn’t for his leg injury, he would have wanted to help his wife with the cutting.
Before time-traveling, Su Qingyue loved delicious food the most, and often researched recipes after work to cook for herself.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman’s voice sounded from outside the courtyard door, “Is anyone in the Xiao Family home?” Qingyue couldn’t hear, so she didn’t react.
Xiao Qinghe replied, “It’s Aunt Zhang, right? Come in.”
Aunt Zhang heard his voice and walked towards the kitchen with a bunch of vegetables. “Oh, Qinghe, you’re in the kitchen too.”
Following Xiao Qinghe’s gaze, Su Qingyue finally noticed someone entering the yard.
She was once again reminded of how inconvenient it was to be deaf.
Aunt Zhang handed Su Qingyue a bunch of vegetables. “Wife of the Xiao Family, these are the vegetables that Chuan asked me to bring over this evening..”
