âThat day, I already showed mercy to Liu Zhengâs wife; she was in pain lying on the bed, but her internal injuries were not severe. Donât give me this crap about spending three taels of silver. Her injuries will heal in half a month, and it wonât cost more than half a tael of silver. If it werenât for you saying several times that it was fine and I didnât need to compensate you, do you think you and your nephew would have left the Xiao familyâs door so easily?â
Upon hearing this, Liu Laoshi was both shocked and scared. How terrifying was the wife of the Xiao Family⦠It was like she could see right through other peopleâs minds.
Sweat beads formed on his forehead, âI⦠I was in the wrong, the wife of the
Xiao Familyâ¦â
âYou donât even deny it!â Xiao Yuchuan was furious, âLiu Laoshi, I thought you were really honest! The injuries of your old mother-in-law didnât cost half a tael, but you dare come to my house and demand three to five taels!â âIâ¦â Liu Laoshi was at a loss for words.
Xiao Yishanâs face was also livid, âIf it werenât for Yueâerâs medical skills, Imowing how much money Liu Zhengâs wifeâs injury would cost, you would have cheated your fellow villagers! No wonder even your nephew accidentally mentioned it as extortion.â
âI didnât want to come either, but my wife forced me toâ¦â Liu Laoshi was ashamed, âThese days, with the Xiao family having no money, itâs one thing for her to make a fuss at home and blame me, but once she heard that the Xiao family had made money from selling ferns, she insisted on me coming to collect compensation. If it werenât for her situation where she couldnât get off the bed at home, she would have insisted on coming with meâ¦â
Su Qingyue didnât listen to what Liu Laoshi said, but went to the storage room to get some wound medicine and grind it into a medicinal paste. By the time she returned to the master bedroom, Liu Laoshi had quickly left the Xiao familyâs courtyard.
Xiao Yuchuan cursed a few times at his retreating figure from the window of the master bedroom.
Qingyue applied the new medicine to her second brother and then fixed his injured leg with bamboo slices, wrapping it with cloth stripsâ¦
Throughout the process, Xiao Yishan remained silent.
âWife, youâre really capable!â Xiao Yuchuan stared at Su Qingyue with adoration in his eyes, âHow can your little head be so smart? You even knew that Liu Dayou was extorting Liu Laoshi for 50% of the compensation. Liu Laoshi just admitted it too. Also, it seems that your medical skills are quite outstanding. You even know that Liu Zhengâs wife only needs half a tael of silver for medicine to be curedâ¦â
There was no modesty in Su Qinzvueâs reply, âIf I didnât have some skills, do
you think youâd still be alive?â
Gratitude filled Xiao Yuchuanâs eyes, âWife, I know that it was you who saved my life. At that time, there was no money at home. If I had been in a coma for a few more days without taking medicine, I would have died. If it werenât for your daily acupuncture treatment and treating my illness, I would probably be a corpse nowâ¦â
âItâs good that you know,â she said coldly, âSo, for saving a life, gratitude should be repaid like a gushing spring.â
âI have nothing to offer you but my devotion, â said Xiao Yuchuan sincerely, his face showing his readiness to face death, âIâve decided that in this life, I will only want you as my woman. Even if a celestial beauty or an unrivaled beautiful woman were placed before me, I wouldnât take an extra look. Iâll only look at you, the ugly womanâ¦â
â .â Su Qingyue felt a tiny bit touched by his first few words, but upon hearing the last sentence, she just wanted to tear her third brotherâs mouth apart! How could this damn third brother make her emotions fluctuate between heaven and earth?
Xiao Qinghe couldnât stand it anymore, âThird brother, donât keep saying that Qingyue is uglyâ¦â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After Su Qingyue finished tying the bamboo slices on her second brotherâs leg, she stood up and glanced at her fourth brother..
