The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 569

Chapter 569: 569 gave Qinghe 3 private money.

Xiao Qinghe sat in his wheelchair in the courtyard, hearing the sound of the secondary bedroom door, he turned his wheelchair around, smiling gracefully at Su Qingyue, “Qingyue, you’re awake.”

His voice was soft and gentle, refreshing to the heart.

His eyes were very beautiful, a pair of crystal clear pupils, giving a very clean feeling, a kind of spiritual cleanliness.

Su Qingyue also smiled at him slightly, “Fourth Brother, good morning.”

The voice of Xiao Yuchuan sounded beside her, “Wife, good morning!”

Qingyue turned her head to look, and saw Xiao Yuchuan standing by the window of the secondary bedroom, “How come you’re here?”

He supported himself with his hand on the window frame, steadying his weak body, “I walked over.”

She slightly furrowed her brows, “If you’re weak, you should rest properly in bed.”

“I’ve lain there so long, I feel like I might rot.” He smiled broadly, “I’m a bit stronger today than yesterday, I can barely walk a few steps.”

She didn’t choke him off, “Wait for me to go to town to buy the medicine, once you’ve detoxified, you’ll feel better in a few days.”

“Really?” Xiao Yuchuan looked hopeful.

She nodded.

He sighed lightly, “Wife, I can’t bear for you to spend so much money for me, but I also don’t want to faint randomly and have to lie in bed for too long… I wish to recover as soon as possible and take good care of you.”

“Stop sweet-talking me.” She walked towards the kitchen.

The big water tank by the kitchen stove was already filled with water.

Since she was no longer selling pig’s large intestines, Second Brother moved the large water tank back to the kitchen from the backyard yesterday.

Not only was the water well prepared, but breakfast was also ready on the table.

There was a large bowl of porridge on the table, and ten big pancakes.

And there were also two boiled eggs.

The two eggs were in one bowl, apparently for her alone.

Xiao Qinghe followed into the kitchen in his wheelchair, “Second Brother bought six eggs from someone else’s house this morning, and I boiled two for you.”

She asked casually, “Why didn’t you boil them all?”

“As long as you eat, that’s enough.” His voice was gentle and elegant.

Su Qingyue glanced at the stove, fresh willow twigs for brushing teeth were already prepared, and even the water for brushing teeth was ready, “Did Second Brother pick the branches, and did you make breakfast?”

“Yes.” He nodded slightly. He also wanted to pick willow twigs for his wife, but it was more convenient for Second Brother to do so since he was in a wheelchair.

“Where’s Second Brother?” She didn’t see him around.

“The old bedsheet and quilt cover that were changed last night, Second Brother washed them and took them to the river bank to rinse.”

“Oh.” She suddenly felt that this home was so warm.

In the past when the men in the house were all down and out, she would be busy like a top, getting up early to fetch water, light the stove, make breakfast, wash clothes…

Busy with all kinds of things.

Now Second Brother and Fourth Brother did all the work, and she was left with nothing to do.

If they were kind to her only because they were family, that would be nice.

Unfortunately…

Both of them were her husbands in name.

Because they were her husbands, they were so good to her…

She didn’t want to think about this issue for the time being, even if only to maintain a brief calm.

She took a cloth-wrapped piece of silver from her sleeve pocket and tucked it into Xiao Qinghe’s hand.

He looked at her puzzled, “Qingyue…”

“This is the eighty taels of silver cashed from the Jin Residence’s osmanthus cake.” She said, “Keep it as your private money, do not let Second Brother or Third Brother know, and don’t let others know either.”

He held the weighty silver in his hand, flooded with various emotions…

He thought that his wife did not report the eighty taels because she wanted to keep it as her private money, but it turned out to be for him!
