The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 505 - : 505 Fourth brother has taken action.
Chapter 505: 505 Fourth brother has taken action.
Seeing him meticulously embroidering, even though his hands and feet had little strength, he was fully focused and serious.
Those long, fan-like eyelashes cast two shadows beneath his eyelids, making him look extremely attractive.
Every time she saw Third Brother making clothes for her by hand, her heart was deeply touched.
In the room, Second and Fourth Brother were nowhere to be seen, they must have gotten up already.
Having noticed the watery gaze on him, Xiao Yuchuan lifted his head and flashed a bright smile at her, “Wife, you’re up so early, why not sleep a little longer?”
“Mm.” She nodded, “I’ve slept enough.”
“Fourth Brother is preparing breakfast in the kitchen, he’s been at it for a while now, it should be ready.” He said, “You should go eat your breakfast first.”
She asked, “What about Second Brother?”
“Second Brother went to the village well to fetch water.”
“Oh.”
He looked at her with concern and said, “Wife, it was Second Brother’s fault last night. If you have any grievances, just tell Third Brother, don’t keep it bottled up inside.”
“It’s nothing, as long as you don’t misunderstand.” If Third Brother thought she had stolen from Second Brother, it would be hard to clear things up.
His bright eyes were filled with doting as they stared at her, “How could Third Brother, who loves you so much, misunderstand you?”
Her heart stirred, so she uneasily averted her gaze and went to the kitchen.
On the kitchen table, there was a large plate of braised pork intestine and a bowl of freshly stir-fried vegetables.
They had bought a lot of vegetables yesterday, enough for three meals, and there was even one meal left at noon.
Xiao Qinghe was sitting in the wheelchair, lifting the pot lid to reveal a pot of cooked porridge. Seeing her, he gave her a refined smile, “Qingyue, you’re up?”
For some reason, she felt that his voice was particularly soft today, so soft that it was filled with a touch of delicate care.
Making her heart itch a little.
“Fourth Brother, you also got up so early?” She laughed.
“You have to go to the town today, so I got up early to cook, I’m worried you’ll go hungry.”
She looked at him in surprise, was he openly expressing concern for her? In the past, he had always been too shy to say anything, “Uh… Well, I got up so early specifically to make breakfast.”
“I wanted to cook for you.” He said gently with a magnetic masculine voice.
While saying this, he didn’t dare to look at her straight in the eyes.
She looked at his complexion, which was paler than most people’s due to being bedridden for many years, and his handsome face with a faint blush, “Fourth Brother… You…”
He lifted his head, his clear eyes focusing on her, “Mm?”
She wanted to say, did you also take the wrong medicine like Second Brother?
Before this, she had vaguely realized that both Second and Fourth Brother liked her.
However, neither of them had expressed it.
Now, Second Brother, who usually kept things bottled up, had shown his feelings.
Even the usually shy Fourth Brother couldn’t help himself anymore.
She massaged her temples in headache, scooped a basin of water to look at her reflection. The scabs on her face had dried up even more, and they would probably fall off soon.
It would be one thing if she were a beauty who attracted the affection of all the men in the house. But now, with her face covered in scabs, she looked terrifyingly ugly.
She thought, she was, after all, sharing hardships with the Xiao Family’s men.
Could it be that they all wanted to devote their lives to her?
She quickly brushed her teeth, washed her face avoiding the scabs, and sat down at the dining table. Xiao Qinghe ladled a bowl of refined rice porridge and put a few chopsticks of braised pork intestine into the porridge bowl, “Qingyue, have a taste, does the flavor of the stir-fried pork intestine taste the same as the ones you cooked?”
Hearing him say such an ordinary sentence, Su Qingyue felt that his tone was different from usual.
She stared straight into his clear eyes.
