“Damn it, if you have the strength to pull, why don’t you have the strength to eat?” She couldn’t help but burst out swearing.
“Wife, I really have no strength.” He said with a sullen face, “I feel so useless…”
“If you’re useless, just die!” She was too tired and hungry to humor him. He didn’t take the pancake, so she bit it herself, it was hot and fragrant, even a bit crispy, and delicious!
She was so hungry that she had eaten a pancake in just a few bites.
When her stomach was almost empty, she forgot about the previously disgusting things.
Smelling the aromatic flatbread, they hadn’t eaten any kind of food like this at home in a long time. The fragrance of the pancake wafted everywhere, and the greed in the bellies of the three men was awakened.
Xiao Yuchuan looked at his wife’s wolfing down appearance and said with a heartache, “Wife, eat slowly. Although I feel so useless and want to die, I still want to get better and treat you well. If I died, your efforts would be in vain.”
Xiao Yishan’s resolute and stern face was also full of guilt, “Yue’er, I’m sorry.”
Qinghe silently watched her, his apologetic feelings filling his dark eyes.
Suddenly, Su Qingyue calmed down.
In fact, some time ago, she had suffered severe internal injuries, and high fever. This family was very poor and burdened, yet her second and third brother never zave up on her treatment despite spendinz huze sums of money on her. Even in the face of her wanting to escape, fourth brother had given her his only private money.
The family had to borrow money for her treatment, putting the Xiao Family at risk of selling their house. The second brother went hunting in the mountains and got bitten by a snake, which was partly caused by trying to make more money to pay off the debt.
In such a poor situation, the second and third brother did their best to get her good food and let her eat whatever she wanted, even saving up to buy her new clothes…
These three men were really good to her without any real motive.
As ugly as she looked now, they had nothing to gain from her. For some time, she had been a useless person in this family and the most ugly woman in the area, yet they held her in their hearts.
To say that she was not touched would be a lie.
If it weren’t for their kindness, she would have left as soon as she had recovered, or even before she had fully recovered, with her tough temperament.
It was because they were so good that she stayed.
“Yue’er, eat more!”
“Wife, eat slowly.”
The second and third brothers spoke at the same time.
Xiao Qinghe’s clear gaze focused on her, “Don’t choke yourself…”
She faintly smiled, thinking that cause and effect is a cycle, and karma is inevitable. The Xiao Family brothers had wholeheartedly treated her well before, and now it was her turn to treat them well.
After she finished eating one pancake, she picked up two more and handed them to Xiao Qinghe. “Fourth brother, you eat too.” He took them, not knowing what to do with them.
“Eat it quickly!” She scolded.
He dared to take a slow bite and chew. As he bit the pancake, he lowered his eyes, with a faint mist appearing in his clear eyes.
Su Qingyue picked up another pancake, tore off a small piece and put it to Xiao
Yishan’s lips. “Second brother, eat.”
His face flushed red as he opened his mouth and bit down.
However, his skin was dark from many years in the sun, and the room was only lit by the moonlight, so no one noticed his blushing face.
“Wife, why did you feed second brother first… I’m starving too…” Yuchuan looked very wronged. Second brother always came first… “Because the second brother is older than you.”
“It’s only a three-year age difference….”
