The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

Chapter 202 - 202 Jealous

202 Jealous

Walking hand in hand with Qin Xiaoyao on the street, Song Que’s usual aloof expression was replaced with a faint smile.

This caused the passers-by to stop in their tracks.

Of course, he was not the only reason the passers-by stopped in their tracks. Qin Xiaoyao was the other reason.

Qin Xiaoyao, who had slimmed down, was no longer as beefy as she was before.

!!

She was not only quite beautiful, but she also possessed a heroic kind of beauty.

She was far more eye-catching than she gave herself credit for.

Therefore, after a while, when Song Que saw a man staring at Qin Xiaoyao, he could no longer smile.

“We’d better go home earlier. There will be people coming to buy water at 9 pm.”

However, Qin Xiaoyao wasn’t in a hurry to return. “Why are you in such a hurry? Let’s walk to that location before turning back.”

It wasn’t easy for her to come out, so she wanted to wander around a bit longer.

Song Que glared at her with displeasure. As there was a young master looking at his wife from a distance, Song Que could not say anything, so he dragged Qin Xiaoyao away and quickened his pace.

Qin Xiaoyao followed Song Que for a while before she quickly pulled her husband back.

“Walk slowly. Your leg has just recovered,” she reminded him.

Qin Xiaoyao only realized that something was wrong when she saw the man’s angry look.

“What’s the matter with you?” she asked her husband.

Song Que glanced at the woman in front of him, who was attracting attention from the opposite sex like a flower attracting bees and butterflies.

He suddenly felt that perhaps it would be better if she was a little fatter.

“That person just now. His eyes were almost all over you,” Song Que continued. When he spoke, his tone sounded a little angry.

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.

“Hahahaha…” Then, she burst out laughing.

When she saw the man’s jealous face, the more she tried to hold back her laughter, the more she couldn’t.

In the end, she laughed for a long time.

Song Que frowned when he saw her reaction.

After a while, he calmed down again.

Then, he said to Qin Xiaoyao in a resentful tone, “That’s enough.”

Qin Xiaoyao once again forced herself to suppress her laughter.

“Enough. Haha! Yes, enough… it’s enough,” she responded.

It was so funny. Her husband’s jealous look was so cute!

The resentment in Song Que’s eyes deepened, but he didn’t say anything else.

Qin Xiaoyao sensed someone’s displeasure and finally restrained her mirth completely.

After that, she shamelessly grabbed Song Que’s hand.

She said as she continued to lead the man forward, “If others want to see, then let them.”

“It’s their eyes, after all. It’s not like we can do anything to them.”

“Besides, if people look at you, it means you’re good-looking! It also proves that I have good taste.” As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao turned her head to look at Song Que.

“Hubby, you’re much better looking than me. There are many people on the street who are staring at you.”

“If I were to be jealous like Hubby, wouldn’t I drown in jealousy?” Qin Xiaoyao said with a smile.

Song Que was silent.

When he thought about it carefully, it did seem to be the case.

However, he did not want others to stare at his wife like that.

Qin Xiaoyao thought that Song Que had already thought things through and said with a smile, “Alright. It’s fine once you get used to it.”

She even reached out and patted Song Que’s arm.

Then, she continued to walk forward with her husband.

Song Que also kept his thoughts to himself and continued strolling with Qin Xiaoyao.

Meanwhile, at the dock of Mountain Spring Town.

Qin Dahu had already brought Liu Daniu and Liu Erniu there to work.

Just as Song Que had guessed, Liu Daniu was still able to get the work done with some difficulty, but Liu Erniu was having a hard time.

“If you can’t take it, then give up. You’re still young. You can come back in two years when your body is stronger!” Qin Dahu said to Liu Erniu.

This brother was good at working hard, but his physique was a little weak, which was a pity.

“Big Brother Qin, don’t worry. I can do it!” Liu Erniu replied as he gritted his teeth while carrying a huge sack.

Buying a courtyard house had almost emptied his family’s coffers. He didn’t want to miss out on this job that could pay at least 90 copper coins a day.

If Big Brother could do this, so could he.

If he endured a while at the dock, he could save up money to get a wife. It would also save his parents from worrying about him.

Qin Dahu smiled but did not reply.

After Liu Erniu had walked far away with his big sack, Qin Dahu pulled Liu Daniu back, who was about to carry a new sack.

...

Liu Daniu looked at Qin Dahu with a puzzled expression.

Qin Dahu glanced at Liu Erniu, who had just left.

“You should talk to Erniu. This job isn’t suitable for him,” he said.

Liu Daniu was taken aback.

Qin Dahu patted Liu Daniu’s shoulder. “I know your family is short of money now.”

“But Erniu is still too young. His body’s bones have not developed fully yet.”

“It’s not good to do too much of such heavy-lifting work.”

“If he really exerts too much force and injures his body, I’m afraid the subsequent side effects will be quite substantial. At that time, I’m afraid it’ll be too late to regret.”

After he finished speaking, he gave Liu Daniu a look and patted his shoulder again.

Only then did he continue to carry the sacks.

Liu Daniu looked at his younger brother’s back profile and sighed. He knew what to do.

...

At the Song family’s residence.

Qin Xiaoyao and Song Que returned home just before 9 pm.

Soon, someone came to buy water.

The courtyard quickly became a hive of activity.

As the whole family was present, there was sufficient manpower to deal with the work.

By the time Qin Xiaoyao finished her work, washed up, and went to bed, it was already very late.

Qin Xiaoyao lay in Song Que’s arms, her heart filled with contentment.

“I really hope that life will continue to be peaceful and happy like this. No locust plague, and no war disaster either,” she said.

Song Que laughed and helped Qin Xiaoyao brush away the stray hair on her cheek.

“Don’t think too much. We’ve already made sufficient preparations in advance. Everything will pass smoothly.” After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed his wife on the forehead.

The woman’s eyes immediately turned a darker hue.

Then, like a hungry tiger, she flipped over.

The next day, Qin Dahu brought his luggage and left for the Zhang family’s village early in the morning.

On the Liu family’s side, Liu Daniu went to the dock while Liu Erniu was left at home.

On the way back from the dock last night, Liu Erniu’s big brother had explained to him the pros and cons of this job.

Liu Erniu didn’t want to give up, but he was unable to convince his big brother.

In addition, when he returned home, his parents listened to his big brother and did not allow him to go to the dock again. He had no choice but to listen to them.

Then, when he woke up this morning, the soreness and pain all over his body made him give up the idea totally.

Aunt Liu noticed that her second son didn’t look so well. After she accidentally touched him and elicited a very strong reaction, she guessed what was going on.

“That kind of physical work can’t be done just by gritting your teeth and forcing yourself,” Aunt Liu tried to explain to him earnestly.

“Forget it. You can rest for today. Don’t go to work.”

“Recuperate for a while, and then go out and look for other work.”

“How can I do that?” Liu Erniu refused immediately.

“It’s just my shoulder that’s slightly injured. My legs are fine.”

“The sooner I find a job and have income, the sooner I will feel at ease,” he said.

Aunt Liu looked at her second son with a pained expression.

“I told you to rest, so just rest!”

“Our whole family is thinking of ways to make money! Why are you in such a hurry?”

Then, Aunt Liu looked at Uncle Liu.

“Later on, take a look at the wound on Second Son’s shoulder. See if there’s a need to apply some medical oil on it.”
