“That day, I already showed mercy to Liu Zheng’s wife; she was in pain lying on the bed, but her internal injuries were not severe. Don’t give me this crap about spending three taels of silver. Her injuries will heal in half a month, and it won’t cost more than half a tael of silver. If it weren’t for you saying several times that it was fine and I didn’t need to compensate you, do you think you and your nephew would have left the Xiao family’s door so easily?”
Upon hearing this, Liu Laoshi was both shocked and scared. How terrifying was the wife of the Xiao Family… It was like she could see right through other people’s minds.
Sweat beads formed on his forehead, “I… I was in the wrong, the wife of the
Xiao Family…”
“You don’t even deny it!” Xiao Yuchuan was furious, “Liu Laoshi, I thought you were really honest! The injuries of your old mother-in-law didn’t cost half a tael, but you dare come to my house and demand three to five taels!” “I…” Liu Laoshi was at a loss for words.
Xiao Yishan’s face was also livid, “If it weren’t for Yue’er’s medical skills, Imowing how much money Liu Zheng’s wife’s injury would cost, you would have cheated your fellow villagers! No wonder even your nephew accidentally mentioned it as extortion.”
“I didn’t want to come either, but my wife forced me to…” Liu Laoshi was ashamed, “These days, with the Xiao family having no money, it’s one thing for her to make a fuss at home and blame me, but once she heard that the Xiao family had made money from selling ferns, she insisted on me coming to collect compensation. If it weren’t for her situation where she couldn’t get off the bed at home, she would have insisted on coming with me…”
Su Qingyue didn’t listen to what Liu Laoshi said, but went to the storage room to get some wound medicine and grind it into a medicinal paste. By the time she returned to the master bedroom, Liu Laoshi had quickly left the Xiao family’s courtyard.
Xiao Yuchuan cursed a few times at his retreating figure from the window of the master bedroom.
Qingyue applied the new medicine to her second brother and then fixed his injured leg with bamboo slices, wrapping it with cloth strips…
Throughout the process, Xiao Yishan remained silent.
“Wife, you’re really capable!” Xiao Yuchuan stared at Su Qingyue with adoration in his eyes, “How can your little head be so smart? You even knew that Liu Dayou was extorting Liu Laoshi for 50% of the compensation. Liu Laoshi just admitted it too. Also, it seems that your medical skills are quite outstanding. You even know that Liu Zheng’s wife only needs half a tael of silver for medicine to be cured…”
There was no modesty in Su Qinzvue’s reply, “If I didn’t have some skills, do
you think you’d still be alive?”
Gratitude filled Xiao Yuchuan’s eyes, “Wife, I know that it was you who saved my life. At that time, there was no money at home. If I had been in a coma for a few more days without taking medicine, I would have died. If it weren’t for your daily acupuncture treatment and treating my illness, I would probably be a corpse now…”
“It’s good that you know,” she said coldly, “So, for saving a life, gratitude should be repaid like a gushing spring.”
“I have nothing to offer you but my devotion, ” said Xiao Yuchuan sincerely, his face showing his readiness to face death, “I’ve decided that in this life, I will only want you as my woman. Even if a celestial beauty or an unrivaled beautiful woman were placed before me, I wouldn’t take an extra look. I’ll only look at you, the ugly woman…”
‘ .” Su Qingyue felt a tiny bit touched by his first few words, but upon hearing the last sentence, she just wanted to tear her third brother’s mouth apart! How could this damn third brother make her emotions fluctuate between heaven and earth?
Xiao Qinghe couldn’t stand it anymore, “Third brother, don’t keep saying that Qingyue is ugly…”
After Su Qingyue finished tying the bamboo slices on her second brother’s leg, she stood up and glanced at her fourth brother..
