The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 885 - : 885 is like a dream.
Chapter 885: 885 is like a dream.
“Okay.”
“You agreed to marry me?” His eyes sparkled with excitement, shining like the brightest obsidian.
“Mhm.” She nodded.
He pushed his luck further, “After we have the wedding wine, on our bridal chamber night, we’ll consummate the marriage.”
“Okay.” Her voice was filled with tenderness.
He heard her and was passionately thrilled, “Wife, I want you now!”
“That won’t do.” She yawned, “Let’s stick to your plan. I don’t want the villagers to gossip.” When she had first come to this family, she had been labeled as a bride jointly purchased by the brothers, and from now on, she would have to be clear about her relationship with second brother and fourth brother.
She didn’t really care about her reputation; she just didn’t want people to speak ill of third brother.
Perhaps subconsciously, she felt like she had gotten married without a wedding ceremony in this family, forgetting that even getting married included a wedding.
She hadn’t expected third brother to hold a celebration for their marriage.
Su Qingyue, are you really satisfied with such a small request?
Slap! A sound rang out.
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
The crisp sound of a slap echoed.
Su Qingyue saw him slap himself and frowned, “Third brother, why are you slapping yourself? Have you gone mad?”
“It’s painful…” He said dumbly, “I’m afraid I’m dreaming, I didn’t expect you to really agree to marry me. Wife, I’m really afraid this is all a dream…”
“Fool!” She touched his face, which now bore the imprint of five fingers, “Your face is so handsome, don’t ruin it.”
“I won’t.” He held her tightly, affirming once again, “Wife, it’s settled then, you agreed to marry me.”
“Yes.”
“Wife, you can’t back out now…”
“Keep talking nonsense, and I’ll act as if I never agreed.”
“No more nonsense, no more nonsense…” He was so scared he didn’t dare even breathe loudly.
After a while, she asked, “Third brother, can’t you sleep?”
“I’m too excited!” Not only was he bursting with joy because she agreed to marry him, but holding her close, his lower body reacted, torturing him just the same.
Her voice was as gentle as water, “Tell me about your childhood.”
“Wife, there’s not much to tell about my childhood,” he said.
“If you don’t want to talk about it, then don’t,” she replied.
“If you want to know, I’ll talk about it.” He tried to distract himself, so he wouldn’t lose control and ‘devour’ his wife. Memories of his childhood surfaced, and a hint of bitterness couldn’t be hidden in his brow, “Since I was young, Mom never liked me; she only favored big sister, second brother, and fourth brother. No matter what I did, she never liked me. You see me always joking around with you… In reality, I was very obedient as a child, not naughty at all. Mom would always hide things and wouldn’t let me eat, and many times, she even tried to drive me from the table and wouldn’t let me eat with the family. Dad would often argue with Mom about this, asking her why, out of all her sons, she disliked me the most?”
“What did your mother say?”
“She said giving birth to me brought her a lot of suffering and even caused her to have a lasting ‘woman’s ailment,’ so she hated me,” he explained.
“That seems a bit unreasonable…” she said, “You were the third child she gave birth to. If she had any ‘woman’s ailments,’ they would’ve occurred earlier.”
“In any case, Mom just didn’t like me.” His eyes flashed with pain, “Once, the family made rice cakes, and she hid them away from me. Fourth brother sneaked some to me, and it got him a beating from Mom.”
Su Qingyue wondered what kind of scene it must have been for fourth brother to get hit by Lady Xiao, but seeing the pain in third brother’s eyes, her heart ached slightly, and she simply reached out to grasp his broad palm.
