Chapter 863: 863 Rong’er intentionally let Yue know
Su Qingyue was about to bend over to put on her shoes when Xiao Yuchuan crouched by the bed and picked up her embroidered shoe first, holding her foot in one hand.
She tried to move her foot away, “Third brother, what are you doing?”
He looked up at her while still crouching, “Helping you with your shoes, can’t you tell?”
“I can tell. But… I can put them on myself.” Qingyue’s face flashed with embarrassment.
He chuckled, “I like helping my wife with her shoes…” His large palm gestured over her little feet, “Wife, your feet are so small, dainty, and pretty…”
As he spoke, he carefully helped her slip on both shoes.
...
Qingyue, looking at his handsome face with a hint of roguishness, felt deeply moved.
In this era of male superiority and female inferiority, whether among the rich or the poor, men would never stoop to put on shoes for women, as it would be deemed undignified for the men of the time.
She said calmly, “Third brother, is it really okay for you to help me with my shoes?”
He inspected her shoes, “Wife, are you saying I didn’t help you put them on comfortably?”
“No. I mean, don’t you feel it’s beneath your dignity?”
He stood up and teased her nose, “Wife, where does my dignity come from in front of you?”
“That makes me sound quite domineering…” she muttered.
He also sat on the edge of the bed and wrapped his arms around her, “If only you were a little more domineering with me. I’m soft-hearted in front of my wife. If my wife wants to twist me into a circle, she twists me into a circle, if she wants to flatten me, she flattens me.”
“Xiao Yuchuan, you really have no backbone!” she scolded with her lips, but her heart was sweet.
“Look at your expression, like you’ve stolen a taste of honey. You just love it when your husband is like this.” He kissed her face and walked with her toward the outside of the room, “Fourth Brother has already prepared breakfast, we can just go eat what’s ready.”
“Mm,” she nodded, “Fourth Brother is indeed diligent.”
“There’s not a single lazy person in this house.” He looked at her tenderly, “Wife, I actually wish you could be lazier. Wife, you are the hardest working person in this house.”
She shook her head, “It’s nothing.”
When they passed by Xiao Yishan’s room, Li Rong’er happened to come out in a fluster, fiddling with the cloth buttons on her clothes; her disheveled dress and hair indicated that she had engaged in some indecent activities with the owner of the room.
“Third young Master, young Mistress!” Li Rong’er seemed shocked to be caught, her face full of panic.
Xiao Yuchuan gave her a cold glance. He didn’t like the woman, but he was pleased to hear her address Su Qingyue as the young Mistress.
He glanced sideways at Su Qingyue and saw that she showed no reaction to Li Rong’er coming out of the second brother’s room in disarray so early in the morning. He knew in his heart that she truly had no romantic feelings for the second brother, and his mood immediately brightened.
Although his wife didn’t fancy the second brother or cared for the fourth brother, he was always afraid that one day she would be lured away by either of them, always anxious. The thought of losing her made his heart ache.
Li Rong’er had expected them to ask her why she was in Xiao Yishan’s room, but they just entered the kitchen without a word.

Looking at their retreating backs, she thought that Xiao Yuchuan and Su Qingyue were both clever people and must have realized that she was now Xiao Yishan’s woman.
She went back to her own room, getting ready to change into a different set of clothes.
In the kitchen, Xiao Qinghe had set breakfast on the table and greeted the two who entered, “Third Brother, Qingyue, breakfast is ready.”
