“That was before.” She declared dominantly, “From today on, our family will have three meals a day!”
Looking at his wife’s powerful presence and intimidating charm, she was so adorable. She said… our family. It turns out that in his wife’s heart, she truly regarded the Xiao Family as her own family. Xiao Qinghe couldn’t help but feel a tremor in his heart, which started beating uncontrollably, “Qingyue…”
“Don’t think about skipping lunch.” She stuffed chopsticks into his hand, “I promise I’ll do my best not to let anyone in the family go hungry.”
“The Xiao Family has brought you trouble…”
“Don’t say that.” She patted him on the shoulder, “Family doesn’t speak two sets of words. If you really don’t want me to worry, then eat well and sleep well.”
He nodded gently. He picked up the bowl in silence and began to eat. Su Qingyue turned away with the basket and went to the master bedroom, not noticing the faint fog in Xiao Qinghe’s serene eyes.
In the master bedroom, Xiao Yuchuan saw the food in his wife’s basket and asked in astonishment, “Wife, wasn’t our family’s food sold out? Where did this food come from?”
“I picked some wild vegetables on the mountain yesterday, and there were still about a dozen sweet potatoes left in the bag in the corner of the kitchen that we hadn’t finished eating. No one was buying these two things, so I thought I’d make them for lunch.”
“You should save them for dinner…” Xiao Yuchuan hesitated.
“You have the same idea as fourth brother.” She glanced at Xiao Yishan lying on the bed, “I guess second brother thinks so too. But don’t worry, I can support you all. All you need to do now is to eat whatever I make and recover as soon as possible, so our family can get better.”
Her words moved Xiao Yishan and Xiao Yuchuan, but also filled them with guilt.
The guilt was because the burden of the Xiao family had fallen on her, a woman, and they were all bedridden and helpless. What touched them was that she even said… she would support them.
“Wife…” Xiao Yuchuan’s lips moved.
“If you want to ask something, just say it.”
“Wife, Doctor Sun didn’t come to treat second brother and me. It was you who treated us, right?” Although he was pretty sure, he couldn’t help but ask. “Yes.” She nodded.
Xiao Yuchuan voiced his concern, “Will second brother be all right? He can’t even move now.” He knew that in the past, someone in the neighboring village had been bitten by a poisonous snake, and although that person’s life had been saved, they had been left paralyzed.
Although Xiao Yishan seemed fine on the surface, he was also anxious to know, his heart almost hanging in midair.
“There will be no problem.” She said lightly, “In the next four or five days, second brother’s hands and feet won’t have any strength and he won’t be able to move temporarily. Even when he reghs strength, ne shoma not move around but rest for at least half a month. I happened to find some herbs on the mountain yesterday. There were a lot of commonly used healing herbs and a type called Seven-leaf-one-flower, which can cure second brother’s snake venom. Even after the snake venom dissipates, second brother’s broken leg will take at least two months to heal, otherwise, it will have lingering issues. His leg injury is much more serious than the fracture I had on my wrist.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yishan’s heart sank to the bottom of the valley. His injury would take two months to heal, and there was nothing left in the house. How could his family survive…
Xiao Yuchuan was also worried about their livelihood, but there was nothing they could do about the food situation, as there was no money to buy any. He just said, “It’s good that second brother’s life was saved.. Wife, how about my body…”
