The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 576

Chapter 576: 576 Qingyue also has secret savings 1

He stretched out his iron arm, fiercely pulling her into his chest and bent his head toward hers, trying to kiss her again.

She was so frightened that her hair stood on end, and she pushed her palm against his face, “Second brother, no!”

He spoke with a thirst, “Yue’er, I like you. You’re going to town and it’ll be at least a day before you return. Let me kiss you…”

If it was any other killer, he would definitely be dead by now. It seems that Su Qingyue really isn’t suited for this life. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have become a farmer’s wife in this lifetime, “Second brother, if you continue this, I’ll be upset! There will be serious consequences if I get upset!”

Xiao Yishan saw her icy facial expression and stiffly let go of her, “I am your husband, can’t I even be intimate with you?”

“No,” she simply threw the word out.

Seeing the seriousness in her eyes, he knew that she really felt that way and suddenly felt powerless, “I will give you time, and sooner or later, you’ll have to adapt!”

He stiffly walked toward the village with a limp and a crutch.

Her expression was also unpleasant as she untied the reins of the horse and mounted it.

Xiao Yishan had originally planned to make amends with her, but for some reason, things turned awkward again. Watching her ride away, he couldn’t help but shout, “Yue’er, be careful and come back early!”

Su Qingyue didn’t turn her head, just raised her hand to show that she had heard it.

With a whip of the horse, the riding speed quickened, and soon she overtook a cow’s cart.

It was the village’s Wang Crippled carrying passengers with his cow cart, which was full of people today, slowly traveling along the mountain road.

“Hey… Who’s that, a woman riding a horse…” A village woman on the cow cart asked.

“Isn’t it obvious? Look at the clothes and silhouette, it’s the wife of the Xiao Family. Nowadays, only the Xiao Family in our village has horses…”

“Riding a horse is really fast and handsome…”

People on the cow cart discussed, “Wang Crippled, the wife of the Xiao Family has been hiring your cart recently, but if she buys a carriage, she won’t need your cow cart anymore… You’ll earn less in the future…”

“It’s a good thing that they have the ability to buy a carriage.” Wang Crippled didn’t seem to care, “Besides, the wife of the Xiao Family has spent more money on my cart during this time than many people in the village have spent in their entire lives. I’ve earned enough from her…”

“Your character isn’t bad, Wang Crippled…”

“Of course…”

From the village to the town, it took four hours to walk, two hours to ride a cow cart. Su Qingyue traveled lightly on horseback without a flatbed cart, so she arrived within half an hour.

As she galloped on the horse, she even felt the impulse to leave the Xiao Family and never return.

But she had agreed to give Chuan a chance and had promised Qinghe, so she wouldn’t leave.

Even if she wanted to leave, she wouldn’t slip away without saying goodbye.

Leading the horse through the town, the morning sunlight enveloped the small town, people coming and going on the streets. Everyone had their own home and their own destination.

She had originally considered the Xiao Family her own home.

But now, an unrooted sensation overcame her.

As she reached the entrance of the pharmacy, the shopkeeper saw her hold the reins and looked up from behind the counter, “Young lady, are you here to buy medicine?”

“Yes,” she nodded.

The shopkeeper told his waiter, “Help the customer with the horse.”

The waiter came out to help Su Qingyue hold the reins.

She entered the pharmacy.

The shopkeeper was startled to see so many scabs on her face.

But noticing her decent clothes and the expensive horse she rode, he realized she came from a wealthy family. He asked enthusiastically, “What would you like, young lady?”
