The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 685: 685 Asking for second brother

“No…” Xiao Qinghe said urgently, “Wife, second brother can’t take it, this… this is even more cruel…”

Yuchuan said fearfully, “Wife, you are so cold-blooded.”

She showed no expression, “Who said that? My blood is warm. Don’t believe me? Bring a knife over and cut me. Give it a try, and you’ll know my blood has a temperature.”

“…” Yuchuan’s handsome eyebrows furrowed together, “Wife…”

She thought he was going to plead for second brother, but instead he said, “How can I let you be cut? If anyone should be cut, it should be me. To cut you once, I’d rather be stabbed.”

Her eyebrows twitched slightly, “Really?”

“If you want to cut me, go ahead.” He showed a mouthful of bright white teeth, “But I will scream in pain…”

“Who allowed you to scream?”

“Stuff my mouth with cloth, and I won’t be able to scream.” His deep, dark pupils stared at her tender, cherry lips, “Wife, if one day I am in so much pain that I scream, use your little mouth to block mine, so I won’t be able to scream.”

She rolled her eyes at him. Unexpectedly, there really was a time in the future when he screamed in pain, and she willingly offered her own mouth.

Staring at her vibrant red lips, his gaze was filled with hunger—thirsty, bowing his head, his lips getting closer and closer…

She directly pushed him back a step.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He complained, “My dear, even though you have such a thin body, you are very strong.”

“If I wasn’t strong, wouldn’t I be having my bones taken apart by you and second brother all the time?”

“What’s ‘all the time’?” He didn’t quite understand, “Is it like constantly?”

“At least you’re a little smart.” She had forgotten that time in ancient times wasn’t measured in minutes. It was measured by hours, with one hour being equivalent to two hours, or by the time it took to drink a cup of tea, but it wasn’t as precise as seconds.

Xiao Yuchuan’s eyes were gentle, “Wife, you have to believe that third brother loves you very much and won’t take your bones apart. At most, I will only crush you.”

“…” She felt that talking to him took away the strength from her already weak shoulders, “I don’t want to talk to you.”

Xiao Qinghe’s clear pupils were filled with seriousness, “Wife, I will definitely ask second brother to return your deed of sale…”

Su Qingyue interrupted him, “Fourth brother, why should we ask him?” According to her character, even if she killed Xiao Yishan, it would be nothing, “He has no right to make you ask.”

Qinghe looked at her, “I know you were serious about poisoning second brother just now. In the four years since I became disabled, second brother has worked hard for this family and taken good care of me.” He looked at Xiao Yuchuan gratefully, “And third brother. Third brother is also very loving towards me. I don’t want to see either second brother or third brother get hurt. And you, with me as your incompetent husband, it is your misfortune…”

“Fourth brother, don’t say that…” She sighed softly, “I won’t poison your second brother, so as not to hurt your fragile little heart.” At most, she would deceive him. She had inquired that if one signed a deed of sale and registered their marriage, it would be called “from Slave to Free”. When registering, one had to bring the deed of sale. At worst, she would deceive the second brother into registering, and before they reached the government office, she would just snatch the contract!

Second brother was unkind, so she didn’t have to be righteous.

Xiao Yuchuan saw her worried, and said with a heartache, “Wife, you don’t have to worry about the deed of sale. Third brother has already torn it up.”

She stared at him, “Really?”
