Chapter 88 - 88: 88 Deaf is good
“One of you should think of a way, whether by borrowing or pawning something. One needs to stay behind, and if you don’t bring the medicine money, don’t even think of leaving.” He knew very well that the Shi brothers would back out of their commitment once they left.
“Alright, alright…” Shi Fang said to his third brother, Shi Mu, “You go home and get…” He realized he misspoke and corrected himself, “Hurry up and go borrow.”
Shi Mu left the yard with a gray face, looking like a defeated rooster. The Shi family did have one tael of silver, but it was hard for a farmer to make money, and it felt as if his heart was being gouged out.
“Hurry back!” Staring in the face of the big mountain-like Xiao Yishan, Shi Fang felt immense pressure.
“I got it.”
Su Qingyue was watching the happenings from her window. She knew she had guessed correctly that the petty cat had provoked a fight, and people were coming to cause trouble.
Originally, she wanted to help if a fight broke out since the other side had more people, but it seemed that the second brother could take care of himself, successfully intimidating the others. As a result, one of them even brought some silver to the table, and everyone finally dispersed.
As soon as the outsiders left, Xiao Yuchuan, who had been yelling in pain from time to time, immediately showed a delighted expression, “Wife, we’ve got money again. Although it’s only one tael of silver, it hasn’t been easy to earn. I’ve been pretending for half a day…”
From the window, Su Qingyue saw the proud look on the little cat’s face and knew that he was glad they had won the money. She could also see that the second brother had pinned his third brother’s injury on the others, which was why they had to pay. She didn’t think that the second brother was bad, just that he was quite clever. After all, it was true that the little cat had started a fight with the others yesterday. Besides, it was obvious that their opponents brought so many people to bully them. If it weren’t for their big second brother…
It seemed as if she realized something…
Yesterday, the second brother was out hunting at this time. She suddenly thought that the other side was very treacherous; they must have calculated that the second brother was not at home to come and bully her and the petty cat. Plus, the person in the secondary bedroom was sick…
Fortunately, the second brother was at home, otherwise… With her skills, she would have disabled those people!
Xiao Yuchuan touched his swollen face, “You see, wife, I fought for you twice, not to mention taking two beatings from my second brother. You’re really my nemesis!”
His mouth was also swollen, so Qingyue couldn’t really understand what he was saying. She just knew he was talking to her, so she gestured to her ears and waved her hand.
“Are you saying you’re deaf?” Xiao Yuchuan smiled and asked. She nodded her head. That’s why she couldn’t hear what he was saying.
“Good thing you’re deaf!” His face was unconcerned, and he laughed even harder.
She was actually told that her deafness was a good thing. Su Qingyue understood this simple sentence and rolled her eyes at him. This damned man didn’t have to be sympathetic, but he didn’t have to gloat either. She didn’t need anyone’s pity, and her deafness was curable. What kind of woman would marry this heartless man?
Xiao Yishan walked into the room and handed the one tael of silver the Shi family had paid to Yuchuan, “Third brother, this is the medicine money the Shi family compensated you.”
Xiao Yuchuan weighed the silver, “The feeling of holding silver is so much better than copper coins. It’s been a long time since I’ve touched broken silver.” He winked at Su Qingyue, ‘Wife, the money is in my hands now, so don’t get any ideas.”
Xiao Yishan’s facial expression darkened after hearing this, “Third brother, don’t speak about your wife like that..”
