Chapter 463: 463 Yishan taking advantage of people in danger
He was a coarse man, completely incapable of needlework. He hoped that the clothes third brother made for his wife would not be to her liking, but to his surprise, she really liked them.
It was somewhat frustrating.
“Yue’er, don’t tire yourself out. I’ll take care of the dried ferns later.” He felt sorry for her being so busy all the time.
“It’s all right. Everyone who helps with the work in our house has almost finished gathering them. I’ll just take care of this little bit.” She used a basket to load up the dried ferns, stacked them neatly in the secondary bedroom.
Originally, fresh ferns covered the area, but since they had been drying, the dried ferns now filled the space. Like this, she had slowly turned the whole area into dried ferns.
After she had gathered all the dried ferns into the secondary bedroom, Xiao
Yishan’s deep male voice rang out, “Qingyue, it’s time for dinner!”
She used to always hear third brother calling her for dinner. Hearing second brother’s voice and thinking about the dinner he cooked made her feel a little strange.
Entering the kitchen, she saw the second brother holding a crutch with one hand while scooping rice with the other.
It was hard to imagine that a burly, crude man like the second brother, who looked like a bandit, could cook.
On the table, there was a bowl of stir-fried leek and egg, a bowl of egg drop soup, and a bowl of fried fish.
There were many marinated and dried fish in their house, and they hadn’t taken them to sell at the market.
Su Qingyue planned that if they were not short on money, she wouldn’t sell it and just keep it for their family to eat slowly.
Yishan said, “Qingyue, you’ve been working so hard these days, and you need to make up for it. That’s why I fried an extra bowl of fish.”
“As the head of the family, you don’t need to talk to me about such trivial things.” She didn’t care at all.
He pointed to a basin of water by the stove, “Qingyue, it’s hot, wash your face first.”
Xiao Yi had already prepared the face washing water for her. Qingyue felt that even though he appeared rough and frightening, his heart was quite delicate. She quietly washed her face, wrung out the towel, and started to wipe.
“Let’s just eat in the kitchen. It’s too much trouble to carry the food to the master bedroom.”
“That’s fine.” While washing her face, she dabbed some water on her forehead and chin to prevent the water from wetting the scabs on her face. After hanging up the towel behind the kitchen door, she had originally thought that since the second brother said they would eat dinner in the kitchen, she would help him carry third brother and fourth brother over.
But to her surprise, he had already separated their food and placed it in bowls inside the vegetable basket, limping with his crutch towards the master bedroom.
She stared at his sturdy figure and muttered softly, “Didn’t he say carrying the food to the master bedroom would be too much trouble? Why is he taking it to the master bedroom now…”
She had dumped the face washing water, and he had returned with two bowls of rice on the table.
“Qingyue, let’s eat.” He handed her the chopsticks.
“Yeah.” She was about to pick up some vegetables, but he was already constantly putting the eggs from the stir-fried leeks into her bowl and also adding fish.
“Second Brother, I can do it myself…” Before she could finish speaking, he interrupted her, “Qingyue, I should care about you. Don’t always reject me.”
He had already said that, and it was just a small matter of picking up food, she let him do it.
“You’re too skinny, eat more.” He looked at her thin body with heartache. She was so frail that he was afraid she might not be able to withstand him during their “intimate moments.” She was his wife, and he couldn’t stay unconsummated forever.
She felt that the gaze of second brother seemed a little “warm,” she awkwardly said, “Second Brother, you should also eat more.”
“Qingyue, do you care about me?” His deep eyes stared at her unblinkingly.
With such an obvious warmth, even as a fool, Su Qingyue could detect the meaning behind his gaze. She suddenly understood..
