Chapter 627: 627, please forgive big sister.
He closed his eyes, reminded him emotionlessly of the fact, “Second brother, your and third brother’s lives were saved by your wife. If it weren’t for her, you would have died from a snake bite long ago, and third brother would have died too.”
With that, he sneered, “After the wife asked Old Zhang to pass on a message to big sister about our family’s situation, I’ve been waiting for big sister to come back and visit you and third brother. After all, before big sister got married, she had the best relationship with you, second brother. She didn’t care about Chuan and me, but with such a big incident going on, she should come back at least once, right? Old Zhang said that big sister told the people of the Xiao Family never to bother her again. This woman who used to be a Xiao, if all the men of the Xiao Family were to die, she wouldn’t even prepare a thin coffin for us. It’s so cold-hearted! It’s not that third brother and I are heartless, but she’s the one who destroyed her conscience first. Now, with your wife earning some money for the Xiao Family, big sister came running for the money, and yet you’re being so polite to her.”
Regret flashed across Xiao Yishan’s face. He had initially been angry when he saw her mouth had been stepped on by Chuan, with the clear shoe print on her face. Only after hearing what his two younger brothers said, did he realize…
He looked back at Su Qingyue.
She had her face covered for some reason, but her gaze was light and leisurely like water.
Only then did he realize that big sister’s arrival had caused such a scene, upsetting him and wronging his wife.
“Yue’er…” Xiao Yishan called out guiltily.
Su Qingyue showed no emotion.
After hearing Chuan and Qinghe’s words, Zhou Fuquan also felt that Xiao Ailiu was utterly despicable. Which sister in any family would be so caring for her younger brothers and sisters, and who could be as bad as her?
Xiao Yishan pulled Xiao Ailiu up from the ground, “Big sister, you should leave.”
Xiao Ailiu came back with the intention to get 300 taels. She had given her word to the Chen Family that, even if she couldn’t get 300 taels, she would casually take one or two hundred taels. Now, she didn’t even get a single copper coin, almost lost her life, and who knows how much it would cost her to treat her injury. Naturally, she refused to leave, just sobbing in tears.
With a remorseful face, she said, “Second brother, third brother, fourth brother… I was wrong…” Her speech was stuttering due to the pain in her stepped-on mouth, and her tearful voice shaking with fear, “I really… was wrong… Please forgive me… Forgive me…”
Xiao Yuchuan ignored her pleas for mercy and dragged her out as she suddenly collapsed and passed out.
Zhou Fuquan was startled, “She isn’t really dead, is she?”
Xiao Yishan’s face was full of tension, he hurried to slap her face, “Big sister… Big sister!”
Xiao Qinghe looked indifferent, “If she dies, just say I killed her. After all…” A bitter smile appeared at the corner of his lips, “After all, I’m a useless person, it doesn’t matter if I take her life.”
“How could that be?” Xiao Yuchuan scolded coldly, “I was the one who killed her; it has nothing to do with you all!”
He walked to Su Qingyue and his handsome face was filled with grief, “My dear wife, I’m not afraid of dying, I’m just afraid of not seeing you after death…”
With that, he sadly dived into her arms, holding her tightly, “Wife, when I enter prison, you must bring me food and accompany me until my execution. But at the moment when my head is cut off, don’t watch. That knife is so sharp, it can cut the head off with one stroke; it will scare you…”
“I know,” she nodded.
He sniffled and said pitifully, “Wife, I have one more request before I die…”
