Chapter 629: 629 What is the purpose of covering the face with a cloth?
Su Qingyue watched her second brother’s sturdy back. Even though she didn’t see what was in his hand, she knew he went out this morning to secretly buy medicine for big sister. It was very convenient to hide a pack of medicine in a sleeve pocket.
She thought he might not buy it, but he really did.
Last night, second brother said the money she earned was from the Xiao Family.
But just now, third brother unintentionally mentioned that it was money earned by his wife.
Both of them were talking about the money she earned, but their words had different meanings.
Second brother made her feel like she didn’t have any sense of belonging to the family.
She always thought second brother was better to her than third brother.
Zhou Fuquan saw that there was nothing wrong, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chuan asked him, “Fuquan, what brought you here so early?”
Zhou Fuquan said, “I was doing part-time work in town. I heard from a senior worker at the Tao Mansion that Miss Tao wanted someone to deliver a message to Su Qingyue of Wushan Village. After asking, I found out that Miss Tao’s moneybag was stolen by a thief, and Qingyue captured the thief in town and returned the moneybag to Miss Tao. Miss Tao wants to invite Qingyue to the Tao Mansion on East Main Street of the town to express her gratitude.”
Su Qingyue sort of guessed it was for this, “Ah, just this one thing, it’s not necessary.”
“Miss Tao insisted that I let you know, and asked you to go.” Zhou Fuquan said, “Miss Tao is really beautiful and friendly. She originally wanted to visit you personally, but she’s been unwell recently, so she can only trouble you to go.”
“I understand.” She nodded.
“My wife told her family that she returned the moneybags to five owners, but I didn’t expect one of them to be Miss Tao’s. The thief has an eye for valuable things, the moneybag of a wealthy family’s young lady must be worth more than an ordinary person’s purse.” Xiao Yuchuan said to Su Qingyue, “My wife, don’t go to the Tao Mansion.”
Su Qingyue asked with a smile, “Why, are you going to do it instead?”
“When I get better, I can do it for you. I think we should let someone from the town deliver the message to the Tao Mansion, and say we’ve accepted their kindness.” Yuchuan said, and stared at Su Qingyue, “My wife, you don’t think I want to go see the young lady from a rich family, do you?” He blinked, “Are you jealous?”
“I don’t give a damn about your jealousy.” Su Qingyue rolled her eyes at him.
Xiao Yuchuan chuckled, “My wife is jealous. Don’t worry, my heart and life belong to you! No matter how rich or beautiful other women are, I promise I won’t even take a look.”
“Humph.” She snorted, “It’s fine if you look, it’s even better if you run away with a young lady from a wealthy family.”
“No way.” He hugged her, “My wife, I just like you.” As he said this, he tried to kiss her face, but she pushed him away, “Stop it!”
He looked at the veil on her face and asked in confusion, “My wife, what are you doing with a cloth on your face so early in the morning? Did water get inside your brain?”
Her heart started to hurt again, “You’re the one with water in your brain. Go away!”
“I’m not going.” He reached out to pull off her veil, “Covering your face with a cloth obstructs your breathing. Let me help you remove it… ”
“No need.” She blurted, “I applied medicine to the cloth, it’s good for my face.”
He scratched his head, “My wife, should the scab on your face have fallen off by now? Why are you still applying medicine? Why do you need it when it’s healed?”
“To reinforce the effect.”
