Chapter 814: 814 wife is really ruthless
Money Master Zhang’s wife was scowling as she said, “Who has come begging at her house?”
“You took a piece of cloth from Qingyue’s family, and all the guys saw it.”
“She gave it to me herself…” Money Master Zhang’s wife shamelessly talked nonsense.
“Give me a break,” Aunt Zhang glared at her. “You’re hardly any better than Liu Haitang, plotting to ride the Xiao family’s carriage for free and trying to swindle them. It’s just like you!”
“I’m not talking to you!” Money Master Zhang’s wife huffed through her nostrils.
Aunt Zhang couldn’t be bothered with her either.
The villagers kept chatting about the Xiao family’s affairs. The Xiao family had become Wushan Village’s largest local landlord, and everything about the Xiao family was a topic of great interest to everyone.
The water jar at the Xiao family was big, and a load of water was not enough for it, so Xiao Yishan went back to fetch another load. Still, no matter what the other villagers said this time, he couldn’t be bothered to respond.
After Su Qingyue got up and opened the door, she saw Xiao Yuchuan still standing at the doorstep and said in surprise, “Third brother, did you really stay up all night?”
“Of course, I wasn’t lying to you,” he said with feigned aggrievance. “Wife, my legs are weak from standing all night, and you were so cruel, not calling me into the room for the whole evening.”
She scratched her head, “Sorry, I fell asleep.”
Xiao Yuchuan saw her rosy complexion, clearly having slept well, and said, “Wife, you really did sleep soundly, huh?”
“Second brother brought a woman back, and I thought you might cry until dawn out of heartbreak.”
“Pfft,” she rolled her eyes at him, “Even if Second Brother performed a live ‘spring Palace’ with that Li Rong’er right in front of me, not only would I not be jealous, I’d actually find it amusing. Believe it or not?”
“Next time Second Brother is rolling in the sheets with her and you happen to see it, just call me over. Whether I watch the fun or not, you’ll see.”
Xiao Yuchuan, seeing her calm demeanor and the fact that her eyes didn’t even flicker when mentioning Second Brother’s intimacy with Li Rong’er, finally believed that she truly didn’t care at all about Second Brother bringing a woman home, and he felt somewhat relieved.
Even though she didn’t care, he still felt heartache for her.
As she stepped out of the doorway, he lunged towards her, but she, with swift reflexes, sidestepped, resulting in him falling face-first into the dirt.
Looking up with his handsome face, he saw the dust on his face and she couldn’t help but laugh.
Blinded by her radiant smile, Xiao Yuchuan paused for a moment before complaining, “Wife, and you still laugh. Your husband nearly ruined his looks!”
“Who asked you to pounce over here.”
“I’ve been waiting for you all night, and my legs are numb,” he grumbled as he picked himself up. “That wasn’t a pounce, I was just trying to lean on your shoulder, you’re so heartless…”
Seeing the tired bloodshot in his eyes, Su Qingyue knew he had been busy going out early and returning late at night, hadn’t had a good sleep, and on top of that watched over her the whole last night – he must be exhausted. She said, “Third Brother, after breakfast, go take a rest.”
“Wife, are you feeling sorry for me?” He immediately moved closer to her. “Here, if you feel sorry for your husband, give me a kiss!”
She pushed his face away, “Go away!”
He leaned forward, sticking his face out to her again. “I went away, and here I am back again.”
She struggled to keep herself from rolling her eyes.
But he began to pinch and pull at her mouth, and she slapped away his annoying hand, “What are you doing?”
“Wife, I’ve noticed your teeth getting whiter and whiter…”
She nodded, “Indeed.”
“I can’t tell if it’s your teeth getting whiter or your yellowish skin making your teeth appear whiter. Come on, open your mouth and let your husband have a good look!”
