Chapter 640: 640 selection
Returning from the journey, she was really a bit thirsty. Seeing the concern in his clear pupils, warmth filled her heart, “Fourth Brother, don’t call me Qingyue anymore, call me… wife.”
He paused, his handsome face filled with ecstasy, “Qingyue… wife, do you… do you accept me?”
She nodded slightly, taking the bowl from his hand, guzzled down several mouthfuls, and finished the water in the bowl.
He voluntarily took the empty bowl from her hand, so excited that he almost couldn’t hold onto the bowl. His hand trembled uncontrollably.
Su Qingyue held his fair, slender hand, “Fourth Brother…” Later, she would take good care of him.
Xiao Yishan stood under the eaves, watching his wife’s affectionate interaction with the Fourth Brother. A sour feeling arose in his heart, and his cold voice unconsciously murmured, “Wife…”
Qingyue glanced at him, “Second Brother should still call me Yue’er.”
The second brother is not suitable to be her husband.
She respected him as an elder brother.
Xiao Yishan’s face suddenly turned pale, “You allow the Fourth Brother to call you wife, but not me. What do you mean by this?”
“Whatever the Second Brother thinks it is, that’s what it is.” She had no facial expressions.
Xiao Yishan stiffened. His wife’s words seemed to acknowledge Fourth Brother as her husband and didn’t want him!
His fists clenched tightly, his fingernails almost digging into his flesh. Furious flames surged up in his heart, “Yue’er!”
Angry and cautionary tone.
Su Qingyue simply ignored him.
Xiao Yuchuan heard the Second Brother’s harsh voice in the yard and stretched his head out of the kitchen, “Second Brother, what made you so angry? What did the wife do to offend you?”
Xiao Yishan’s face turned green and he remained silent.
He said, “It’s dinner time.” He beamed at Su Qingyue, “My good wife, let’s have dinner. I originally planned to kill one of the chickens you bought yesterday to celebrate your face recovery, but it’s too late. I was afraid you’d be hungry, let’s kill the chicken tomorrow noon.”
The whole family gathered around the dining table for dinner. The dinner dishes were quite rich for an ordinary farmer’s family in this era. There were fried fish, a bowl of fried pork, and a bowl… of burnt vegetables.
Xiao Yuchuan put stir-fried meat and fried fish into Su Qingyue’s bowl, “Wife, you are too skinny, you need to eat more.”
Su Qingyue, on the other hand, was putting vegetables into Xiao Qinghe’s bowl, “Fourth Brother should eat more.”
She didn’t use to help him with dishes. Xiao Qinghe was taken aback, “Wife…”
She gave a toothy smile, “Fourth Brother is too skinny, he should make up for it.”
Xiao Yuchuan’s face cooled down, he coldly stared at Su Qingyue, “You agreed to let Fourth Brother call you wife?”
He looked a bit upset. For some reason, he didn’t like hearing any man other than himself calling her wife, even if that person was Fourth Brother!
However, she was indeed the wife they three brothers unanimously agreed to marry.
It was not unreasonable for her to let Fourth Brother call her that.
Looking at Fourth Brother’s pale face, he really wanted to warn Fourth Brother not to call her wife, not to compete with him!
His heart sank as if he had fallen into the bottom of the valley.
Fourth Brother even became disabled for him, even if he was selfish, he couldn’t stop Fourth Brother.
He held the bowl, and sulkily tried to eat more.
Xiao Qinghe knew that Third Brother was unhappy. But Qingyue let him call her wife, he was joyous …
Xiao Yishan also lowered his head to eat, he didn’t utter a word throughout the whole meal. He thought of the eldest sister lying on the bed in the storeroom, she did not have dinner yet. He originally wanted to get her meal and bring it over, but he was afraid it would upset his wife, so he gave up on the idea.
