The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 571: 571 Second brother doesn’t want to lose you1

“Husband can’t bear to part with you.” He looked at her affectionately, “So please, be careful, leave early and return early. I will miss you all the time…”

“Don’t say such cheesy things; we’re not that close yet.”

“We’ve already shared a bed, and we’re still not close enough?” He grumbled, then added, “Buy whatever you want to eat, whatever you want to buy, don’t hesitate to spend money.”

Su Qingyue looked at him suspiciously, “Third brother, aren’t you usually stingy? Why are you so generous now?”

He said displeasedly, “Am I stingy? Wife, don’t wrong me. I’m stingy to myself, but I’ve never been willing to treat you unfairly.”

That did seem to be true. As she led the horse outside, she said, “Tell second brother that I’m going to town.”

“Wife, can you ride a horse?” Xiao Yuchuan looked worried, “Don’t fall off, or you’d better take the village cow’s car?”

“I can ride.” She waved her hand impatiently, “It’s fine.”

She led the horse along the village road, and as she turned the corner, she looked back to see Xiao Qinghe and Xiao Yuchuan standing at the entrance of the courtyard, watching her leave.

She caught their gaze, full of deep affection and reluctance to part.

It made her feel weak.

She would rather their indifference towards her.

“Awooo…” The little bastard followed her, and Su Qingyue shooed it back, “Go back!”

It still followed her.

Only after she scolded it again did it stay in place, wagging its tail without following her.

Know that it would go home by itself, Qingyue got on her horse, raised her whip, and rode off into the distance.

“Isn’t that the wife of the Xiao Family?” Ding Er, who was carrying a hoe to work in the fields, saw her and exclaimed, “Wow, she can actually ride a horse, and the way she handles the whip is so dashing…”

Li Gui, who was up early, also saw her riding off, and a dark glint flashed in his eyes as he watched her disappearing figure.

After Su Qingyue left the village road, she saw a tall and burly figure standing by the roadside, looking at the village from time to time, obviously waiting for someone.

She pulled the reins and stopped, “Second brother?”

Xiao Yishan saw his wife coming from afar, and was fascinated by her skilled horse riding and the manly and bold movements. By the time he came to his senses, she had already dismounted swiftly.

“Yue’er…” He looked hesitant.

Su Qingyue glanced at him and said affirmatively, “You didn’t eat breakfast just to wait for me here. Is there something second brother wants to talk to me about?”

He nodded slightly. His resolute face was filled with tension, “Yue’er, there’s something I want to discuss with you in private…”

“Alright then.” She tied the horse’s reins to a tree by the roadside and stood with him, “Go ahead, second brother.”

This place was already a bit far from the village, and although it was the road to town, the villagers who needed to go to town in the morning had already left, and there was nobody around.

His rugged face filled with seriousness, “Yue’er, were you angry with me last night because of the trouble Qian Zhang’s family caused?”

She shook her head, “Why should I be angry?”

He said confidently, “No, you were angry at me.” He hooked the corner of his mouth bitterly, “You’re angry that I, as a man, didn’t handle it well, and that I almost compromised.”

Since he had seen through her, she didn’t deny it, “Second brother, you’re not wrong.”

His deep gaze focused intently on her, “Yue’er, I want to have a real talk with you. I’m afraid that if I keep going like this, I’ll lose you.”
