The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 607
Chapter 607: 607
Big sister was always exploiting second brother’s responsible attitude, asking him for help in everything. Because she knew only the second brother would help her and take care of her, whereas the third and fourth brothers wouldn’t fall for her tricks.
It’s human nature to take advantage of those who can be pushed around.
Su Qingyue supported Xiao Yuchuan as they walked to the secondary bedroom. She let him sit on the bed, “You should sleep.”
After saying that, she turned to leave.
Xiao Yuchuan held her hand, “Wife, what about you?”
“It’s late at night, I’m going to sleep too,” she said. “I will sleep in the secondary bedroom. The third brother has helped me reclaim the room, if I don’t use it, wouldn’t it benefit Xiao Ailiu?”
“Alright, you should rest early too.” He looked at her with concern, “Wife, if there’s anything, you should tell the third brother. Don’t keep it all to yourself, understand?”
She merely smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. She would tell him what he needed to know.
Just like when she first time-traveled here, every man in the Xiao Family was kind to her. Yet she never planned on telling anyone that her body has changed spirits. Luckily she didn’t, because human intentions are unpredictable. Who could guarantee that their kindness now would last?
In ancient times, being known for returning from the dead in another body could have dire consequences, she could be caught and burned as a demon.
She had long seen through human nature, thus she had learned to protect herself.
Su Qingyue walked to the entrance of the secondary bedroom. The originally wailing Xiao Ailiu, who was pretending to be pitiful on the ground, had already moved a chair to sit under the eaves.
Xiao Yishan came out of the secondary bedroom carrying a set of quilts and mattress. Seeing her, he said, “Yue’er, don’t worry. I talked to big sister, she won’t take your room again. I told her to sleep on the floor in the storage room. The storage room is full of stuff, but if we move things around, there is still room for one person to sleep.”
“Oh.” She nodded. She had thought Xiao Ailiu would have to sleep outside the door tonight. She had underestimated the power of the word ‘family’.
She glanced at the quilts in the second brother’s hands, her eyes turning cold, “Second brother, this set of bedding is new.”
Originally, she had bought five sets of new bedding. Three sets were placed on the large bed in the master bedroom, just enough for use.
And then, another set was placed in the secondary bedroom.
The last set of new bedding, as she didn’t have a cabinet to place it in, was neatly folded and placed in the corner of the secondary bedroom’s bed.
“Big sister said that the old bedding at home smelled musty…”, he explained, “It’s alright to let her sleep on the new bedding for a while. She won’t take it away.”
“However second brother says it is, then so be it.” Su Qingyue slanted her mouth, “The old bedding at home, second brother, third brother, fourth brother have been sleeping on them for many years, and they don’t find it disgusting. Big sister really is delicate.”
“Of course I’m more valuable than someone who was bought.” Xiao Ailiu retorted sharply from the side, “Su Qingyue, do you have to be so petty? You’ve already seized my room, I sleep on a new quilt, and you’re still complaining.”
“Big sister, you shut up!” Xiao Yishan rebuked sternly.
Xiao Ailiu shut her mouth at this.
Su Qingyue said, “Second brother, can I have the bedding in your hands? This set is brand new. The ones on the bed have been stained by big sister’s blood, I can’t sleep in that. Give this set to me.”
Saying this, she directly grabbed the bedding from his hands.
Xiao Yishan didn’t think there was anything wrong and went inside the room to fetch the bloodstained bedding to the storage room.
Su Qingyue placed the new bedding padding on the bed, ready to spread it properly.
