She took her small hand back, propping her chin with one hand, “Don’t worry, I’ll find a rope to tie up Second Brother so he can’t die even if he wants to. After all, men tend to come to their senses once they fail to die.”
The door to the master bedroom was open. The two men inside pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation between Fourth Brother and his wife outside. Xiao Yuchuan looked interested, while Xiao Yishan was so angry that he calmed down.
Su Qingyue raised her voice in the yard, “Second Brother, I am going to see if anyone wants to buy your body. Wait for me.”
Then, she left the courtyard door.
Xiao Qinghe watched her receding figure from the window of the secondary bedroom. She looked delicate and elegant, so beautiful that he couldn’t take his eyes off her. After a long while, he came back to his senses and remembered that his wife hadn’t answered him directly. Would she or wouldn’t she agree to sell Second Brother’s body? Judging from her words, it seemed like she didn’t agree…
On the bed in the master bedroom, Xiao Yishan’s heart was raised, “Third
Brother, do you think my wife would really…”
Yuchuan also looked puzzled, “Initially, I thought my wife was joking, but she actually went out to find someone… Who knows?”
“I don’t agree to sell myself!” He spoke firmly.
“Didn’t you hear what my wife said? You can’t resist. Second Brother, actually I think my wife’s idea is very good. When the ‘guest’ comes later, I can ask my wife to carry me outside, so you can have a comfortable time alone in the room. It’s just that I feel sorry for my wife. Her small body will be burdened by carrying me. ”
“Why don’t you sell yourself?”
“Second Brother, maybe you’re too heavy for my wife to carry, so she asked you to stay in the room.”
Xiao Yishan remained silent with a cold expression. He thought his wife wouldn’t be so cruel, but she really left the house. Was she really just joking?
Leaving…
Suddenly, Xiao Yishan’s expression turned serious.
Xiao Yuchuan thought of the same question, “Second Brother, do you think my wife… left us for good?”
“No.” Yishan pondered for a moment. “The silver on the wooden tray is still there. She doesn’t have any money on her, where could she go?”
“Maybe my wife couldn’t bear taking the money and left us alone…” The mere thought of his wife leaving made Xiao Yuchuan’s heart ache.
“If she really left, it might be for the best.” Xiao Yishan closed his eyes, “You and I both are down. We don’t even have food for the next meal. Even if my wife stays, we can’t continue living like this. If she leaves, at least, she can have a better life…”
“A woman without the Xiao Family? How could she live? Didn’t you see last time, she stole eight taels of silver and almost died…”
“Third Brother, you should know that our wife has changed. If she leaves now, life won’t be hard for her…”
“I don’t want my wife to leave!”
“If she stays, she’ll only be dragged down by the Xiao Family…”
“Second Brother, she just left, and I already miss my wife…”
Xiao Yishan’s expression was heavy and helpless. In fact, he also didn’t want his wife to leave, and he already started missing her.
Su Qingyue went to the nearby mountain and the river in the south of the village for a little while. Having a high work efficiency, she brought back small bundles of tender willow branches, mulberry branches, and locust branches in a bit over half an hour.
These three trees were common, and collecting young branches was effortless. Besides, she saw Aunt Zhang and wanted to ask her where to find ginger and a stone mill.
As it happened, Aunt Zhang’s family grew lots of ginger and also had a stone mill. So, she bought five jin of ginger and used the stone mill to grind the washed ginger into ginger juice..
