Yuchuan also entered the kitchen and saw his wife decocting medicine. “Wife, is this for me to drink?”
“Yes,” she said, “Six doses, three times a day, take it for two days, and the poison in your body will be neutralized.”
Xiao Yuchuan, touched by his wife’s diligence in decocting medicine, said, “Wife, you are so good to me…”
She smiled faintly without saying anything more.
Xiao Yishan saw his Fourth Brother and Third Brother holding the new clothes their wives had bought for them as they entered the kitchen. He frowned, “Second Brother, Third Brother, give me your new clothes. The kitchen is full of oil fumes; it’s not good if they get greasy. I’ll help you take them to the room.”
Xiao Qinghe’s hand tightened around the new clothes before saying, “Alright.”
Yuchuan also handed his clothes to his second brother.
Hidden in the master bedroom, Xiao Ailiu admired the new bedding on the bed. The huge bed, three sets of padding and blankets; even the cotton inside was new. The material and texture were so nice, something a poor family couldn’t afford…
Noticing two rows of large jars next to the wall in the master bedroom, she wondered what was inside. She wanted to open them, but remembering how she was almost unable to enter the house earlier, she decided not to disturb the sealed jars – they probably contained pickled vegetables or something similar.
Ailiu opened both doors of the two large wardrobes, rummaged through them but found nothing valuable, only old clothes. Disappointed, she lifted the quilt to try and find where the Xiao Family had hidden the 300 taels, but she couldn’t find the money after checking all three sets of padding on the long bed.
Hearing footsteps outside the door, she hurriedly smoothed out the padding and picked up a blanket, pretending to fold it.
Xiao Yishan entered the room, “Big Sister, what are you doing?”
She bent down to fold the blanket, stood up, and smiled, “Second Brother, I saw that the blankets on the bed were not folded, so I helped.”
“Is that so?” Xiao Yishan put the new clothes in the wardrobe.
Ailiu looked at her brother’s tall and robust figure, “Second Brother, it’s been a few years since we last met, and you’ve grown taller and stronger than before.” She sighed, “In the blink of an eye, you’re married.”
“It wasn’t in the blink of an eye.” Xiao Yishan put away the clothes and said indifferently, “It’s been five years since you got married. Those five years were the hardest days for the Xiao Family, with every day feeling like a year. It wasn’t until later when Yue’er earned money that things got better.”
“Su Qingyue knows how to make money; she’s quite capable.” Ailiu said in praise, “But she’s too lazy. As a wife, she should buy cloth and make clothes for her husband, but she bought ready-made ones. That’s fine, but the blankets on the bed were not even folded. Whose wife is this lazy!”
Xiao Yishan’s face darkened, “Big Sister, don’t say anything bad about Qingyue in front of me.”
“That woman, she doesn’t even respect me as her older sister…” Ailiu awkwardly said, “Big Sister just cares about you.”
“We don’t need your meddling.”
“How can it be meddling…”
Soon, Xiao Qinghe’s voice came from the kitchen, “Second Brother, time for dinner!”
Xiao Yishan turned around and left the master bedroom, heading to the kitchen for dinner.
Ailiu, hearing her Fourth Brother call only for her Second Brother and not her, and Second Brother also not inviting her, felt both angry and resentful. Thinking about the big bowl of cooked pork bones and the large bowl of fried fish on the kitchen table, she couldn’t help but salivate.
