The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 804 - : 804 third brother’s wife
Chapter 804: 804 third brother’s wife
“Second Young Master Xiao can read?” Li Rong’er was surprised. She had heard that all three men of the Xiao Family were illiterate.
“Read? Of course, we can,” Xiao Yuchuan said with a cold laugh, “My brothers and I learned to read and got rid of our illiteracy, all thanks to my wife.”
Li Rong’er was even more surprised. Which village girl or woman from everywhere around wasn’t illiterate?
She originally thought that accompanying the young lady and learning to read was quite an impressive achievement. Being literate was definitely an advantage that Su Qingyue couldn’t match. She didn’t expect that not only could Su Qingyue read, she had actually taught the Xiao Family’s three sons to read.
“The young Mistress can read, quite a cultured woman indeed,” she said, not exactly envious, but with a touch of praise.
She did, in fact, admire Su Qingyue to some extent.
...
Because all of the Xiao Family’s money was earned by Su Qingyue, even though the money was registered in the government office under the names of the Xiao Family’s three sons, it couldn’t erase Su Qingyue’s contributions to the Xiao Family.
She felt somewhat guilty about trying to snatch away someone’s husband.
But for her own happiness, she had no choice but to be selfish.
Standing at the kitchen doorway, Su Qingyue listened to the conversation inside and said with a light smile, “Second brother, I also think Li Rong’er is a good match for you. If you are interested, why not pair up with her and get married soon? Choosing an auspicious day for the wedding, leave that to third brother. I trust he will handle it well.”
Li Rong’er, hearing this, was astonished. She thought Su Qingyue would hate her to death, yet unexpectedly, Su Qingyue was arranging her with Xiao Yishan.
Xiao Yuchuan, seeing her, hurried over, “Wife, weren’t you sleeping? Why are you up again?”
“Thirsty, got up for a drink of water,” she said, walking into the kitchen to scoop some water.
Xiao Yuchuan quickly picked up a ladle, scooped water from the big water tank into a bowl, and handed it to her, “Here.”
She took it and gulped it down quickly.
Li Rong’er felt that Xiao Yuchuan was really considerate and thoughtful toward Su Qingyue. She glanced at Xiao Yishan and saw his face had turned ashen. Was he angry because his third brother was being nice to Su Qingyue?
Xiao Yishan glared at Su Qingyue with a frosty face, “Wife, why are you insisting on me marrying another?”
“Second brother, I’ve told you before. I have no romantic feelings for you. Since you’ve brought her home, naturally, you should take responsibility for her.”
“I told you, I brought her here to be a maid in our house!”

“Being a maid, then why do you feel so distressed when third brother asked her to prepare bathwater?”
“I…” He looked at her, “Wife, are you jealous?”
“Second brother, stop calling me your wife. It disgusts me.” Su Qingyue’s expression remained tranquil as water, “I, Su Qingyue, have never had any relation with you, not in the past, and there won’t be any in the future. Moreover, have you forgotten? My deed of sale has been torn up. Outsiders may not know, but our family is well aware that I have no ties to the Xiao Family anymore.”
Li Rong’er’s jaw dropped in disbelief.
So Su Qingyue was actually a free person already, not the wife of the Xiao Family. In that case, was Su Qingyue merely a guest in the Xiao Family?
Hearing his wife say this, Xiao Yuchuan was at a loss for words.
He dared not say that he had quietly gone to the government office behind his family’s back, registered for marriage with his wife under his own name using her deed of sale. Without the slave contract, she truly was his wife, Xiao Yuchuan.
If he spoke out, it wouldn’t matter if his fourth brother had already given up the wife. The second brother had also brought a woman home, so knowing wouldn’t make a difference. He was afraid if he told, his wife would tear him to pieces.
