She grabbed her sleeve back, “Buzz off. What’s so interesting about someone who even sells her own wife?”
She glared at Xiao Yuchuan fiercely, then smiled gently at the second brother,
“Second brother, have you eaten enough dinner?”
“Yes.” He nodded.
She wanted to talk more to the second brother, but she didn’t know what to talk about with such a reticent person.
Xiao Yuchuan carefully said, “Wife, I was wrong. I really won’t have such thoughts anymore.”
She sneered, “Once unfaithful, never to be used again.”
“Wife…” Xiao Yuchuan pitifully pointed at his face, “Wife, look at my handsome face. You slapped me and now there’s an obvious palm print.”
She looked at his clearly marked face, “Xiao Yuchuan, you are clearly the one who slapped yourself. Under the starry moon, how can you blame it on me?”
“Well, it’s because of you that I ended up slapping myself. Anyway, it’s all because of you. Regardless of whether you moved your hand or I moved my hand, isn’t it all the same?”
“Sounds like you have a point.”
“So, wife, are you no longer angry at me?”
“If I kill you, I won’t be angry at you.”
He grumbled, “You’re not a killer, stop this nonsense about killing all the time.”
“Indeed, I am.” She honestly admitted, “I am a killer.”
He stared at her, laughing, “Wife, stop joking. Where do you look like a killer?
Killers aren’t like you.”
She rolled her eyes, how come no one believes the truth these days? “What should they look like?”
“Killers should be cold and murderous…
“I suppose they should have ‘killer’ carved on their forehead, right?” She pointed to his head, “Do you think killers are pigs? So stupid. Let me tell you, what’s wrong with my kind of killer? As long as they get the job done. You should know, the more skillful the killer, the less likely people are to suspect, they seem harmless, get it? To quote a very philosophical phrase – this killer is not very cold.”
“Wow, wife, you make it sound quite reasonable.” He looked at her, “Could you, who are both deaf and mute, be a killer? Do you think the ones getting killed are pigs?
“Where am I deaf and mute!”
“Right, you are only deaf, not mute.” The smile at the corner of his mouth widened, “You, a ‘killer’, were bought by the Xiao Family for just sixteen taels.”
She stifled her anger, having told the truth for half a day and no one believed it, “At least I’m more expensive than you. I’ve raised my price now, not sixteen taels, but fifty. Selling you wouldn’t make us that much. As I recall you said last time, you could be sold for about thirty to forty taels, right?”
“Good wife.” Xiao Yuchuan happily pounced to hug her, “Added together, we could be sold for about a hundred taels. We’re considered rich now.”
Su Qingyue blocked his embrace, looking at the second brother, “Second
Brother, you are in charge of this family. Whenever you decide to sell me and
Xiao Yuchuan, it might allow you and Fourth Brother to live a better life.” Xiao Yishan kept a stiff face, “Yue’er, stop talking nonsense.”
“Second Brother, you don’t believe me either.” She held her forehead, “I truly agree to sell both of us.”
“You’re too young to understand.” Xiao Yishan softened his gaze, “As long as the family can be together, it doesn’t matter if we’re poor.”
Su Qingyue fell silent. Although life was tight in the Xiao Family, frankly, her mood was still quite good.
Xiao Yuchuan nodded vigorously, “Exactly. My dear, let’s eat bran and swallow
vegetables together..”
