The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 606

Chapter 606: 606 Second Brother’s Care

Su Qingyue came out of the room and walked into the yard.

Xiao Yishan followed her, seeing his wife’s fragile figure from behind, he felt a wave of pity for her. He moved closer to her and wanted to put his arms around her.

She’d seemingly grown eyes at the back of her head and dodged two steps away with lightning speed, “Second brother, please control yourself.”

His facial expression froze, “Yue’er, I’m your husband!” He thought, when the husband wants to hold his wife, she shouldn’t be asking him to control himself.

She remained silent.

Xiao Yuchuan then dragged Xiao Ailiu out of the room, “Even if your wife doesn’t sleep in the secondary bedroom tonight, don’t think you can take it! Even if it’s empty, you can’t have it!”

Xiao Ailiu let out a pig-like scream, “Third brother, you’re hurting me! I’m dying from all these injuries!” She shouted at Xiao Yishan, “Second brother, hurry up and teach third brother a lesson!”

Xiao Yishan acted as if he hadn’t heard her, not even furrowing his brow.

“If you keep yelling, I’l beat you until you pick your teeth up off the floor!” Xiao Yuchuan slapped her once more.

“Ahh! Ahh!” She had already been slapped thrice by Chuan today and had been slapped once by Su Qingyue. Plus, Chuan had left her full of injuries. She felt murderous as she rolled around on the floor outside the room, “Just kill me already! How dare you hit your eldest sister, Xiao Yuchuan! There’s no morality left in this world!”

“You’re the one who said to kill you, so don’t blame me if you die!” Xiao Yuchuan really wanted to follow through, but his body was already running on empty. Dragging Xiao Ailiu out had drained all his strength, and now he could barely stand, propping himself up against the wall to keep from falling.

Seeing this, Su Qingyue put Xiao Ailiu down and went to support him, “Third brother, go back to your room and rest.”

“Wife, I’m sorry…” Xiao Yuchuan’s eyes reddened, “I’m useless. You’ve done so much for our family, and yet I can’t protect you…”

Upon hearing third brother express these sentiments, Xiao Yishan was also filled with regret. Big sister had been making a lot of trouble since her return, even though his wife had been the one who put in so much effort for the family.

Initially, after seeing the big sister’s bloody injuries, he felt a little reluctant, thinking of buying her some medicine. But now, he decided against it.

“It’s okay.” Su Qingyue didn’t really care, “I don’t need your protection.” If she didn’t want to get hurt, no one could hurt her.

He disagreed, “I’m your husband. If I don’t protect you, who will I protect?”

Su Qingyue gave a subtle smile, her gaze sweeping over Xiao Yishan, who was looking at the eldest sister.

Though the second brother stood still and didn’t go to help the big sister,

Qingyue could still tell from the second brother’s eyes that he couldn’t bear to see the big sister’s severe injuries and her lying on the ground.

To be honest, Su Qingyue felt that she might be a bit cold-blooded, since she didn’t think the third brother beating up the eldest sister was that big a mistake.

There was a saying, “To indulgence is to court disaster.”

For people like Xiao Ailiu, any sign of leniency would just lead to them continuing to take advantage and causing endless trouble for the Xiao Family.

Qingyue knew that second brother had always been the head of the Xiao Family. Even when the big sister hadn’t married yet, she was still treated and cared for like a little sister by the second brother.

The big sister only knew how to eat, use, and spend. She never did any work back at the Xiao Family.

Perhaps due to years of habit, the big sister had become rather reliant on the second brother.

Moreover, the big sister knew that behind the second brother’s mature and stable demeanor was the ability to endure, be calm, and lovingly protect his ‘sister’ and brothers.
