The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 690: 690

“Yes.” She nodded, “You’re living well, and one day, sooner or later, you’ll drive me to my death.”

He tenderly wrapped his arm around her shoulder, “Wife, I want to grow old with you. How can I bear the thought of driving you to death?”

She slapped his hand away, “Stop being lascivious!”

He made a sullen face, “Wife, you’re too heartless, not even letting me touch you…”

“Yes.” She nodded earnestly, “Go find a wife who will let you touch her.”

“No need.” He quickly shook his head, “As long as you let me touch you, it’s enough…”

She glanced at Xiao Qinghe, “I’ll let Fourth Brother touch me.”

Such blatant words made Xiao Qinghe’s handsome, slightly pale face turn red…

Yuchuan immediately said, “Fourth Brother is such a serious person; he wouldn’t touch you. Leave this matter to me…”

Xiao Qinghe opened his mouth to say that he would… but Third Brother didn’t give him a chance to speak and pushed his wheelchair outside.

Su Qingyue really thought that Third Brother’s skin was thicker than a city wall.

“Wife, you get some good sleep. I will take this guy who disturbed your nap away. Don’t be too grateful to me.” His magnetic, pleasant male voice came from outside.

She then really closed her eyes and went to sleep.

In the evening, Aunt Zhang entered the Xiao Family’s courtyard, “Everyone is at home.”

“Aunt Zhang.” Xiao Yishan stood up to greet her.

Xiao Yuchuan also greeted her with a smile, “Aunt Zhang, you’re here.” He got up and pointed at his own stool, “Please sit here.” He had a good impression of the old aunt who took care of his wife.

Qinghe was cooking dinner in the kitchen and also came to the kitchen doorway to greet her.

Aunt Zhang saw the long bamboo strips on the ground and the six big baskets piled up nearby, and said, “Oh my, your family is quite efficient; you’ve already woven six baskets so quickly…”

She picked up a big basket and looked at it, “The craftsmanship is pretty good too, not bad at all.”

“There are many people in our family, so naturally it’s faster,” said Xiao Yishan. “Tonight, we killed a duck for dinner at home. Please stay and have dinner with us.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“No need, I have already cooked dinner at home.” Aunt Zhang quickly waved her hand and looked around the yard, “Where’s Qingyue girl?”

“Aunt, I’m here.” Su Qingyue came out from the secondary bedroom, with Little Bastard following behind her on its four paws.

“Look at you, you just woke up… life is getting better and better.” Aunt Zhang teased.

“Hehe,” laughed Qingyue.

Aunt Zhang said, “Your family bought ten acres of paddy fields and one acre of land today. The whole village knows about it. It’s a good thing.” Her sharp old eyes swept over Yuchuan and Yishan, “This is all thanks to Qingyue girl, you two have to treat her well in the future!”

“Of course.” Xiao Yishan agreed quickly and glanced at his wife… Fourth Brother said his wife was not leaving.

But she only recognized the Fourth Brother as her husband…

Loss, discomfort, and a stifling feeling filled his heart.

Xiao Yuchuan cheerfully said, “Aunt Zhang, you can rest assured, even if I treat myself poorly, I won’t treat my wife poorly.”

Aunt Zhang, an outsider, cared so much about her, and Qingyue was very touched, “Aunt, you’re so kind.”

“Qingyue girl, don’t talk nonsense.” She continued, “I’ve made the rounds; now let me get to the point. Your family is going to build a house soon, so you’ll need to hire workers. My brother Zhang Youlai has been building houses for people for many years, and he’s only in his forties, a strong man with lots of energy. My son Zhang Ping’an also wants to find some work to do. Instead of hiring other people, why not give my brother and Ping’an a chance?”
