Chapter 393: 393 Giving a bath to third brother

Translator: 549690339

Xiao Yuchuan was itchingly intrigued by his wife’s words and kept craning his neck to see when his wife would come out of the kitchen. His wife didn’t notice, but he did notice the scruffy big rat lying lazily outside the kitchen door, yawning like a dog.

Su Qingyue heated a pot of water. She used some of the hot water to wash dishes, and poured the remaining hot water into a bucket, which she mixed with cold water. Once the water temperature was suitable, she brought the large foot basin into the master bedroom. She poured the water from the bucket into the basin for her third brother to bathe in.

Strictly speaking, the weather was hot, and if the three men in the house had to bathe every day, it would require too much water-carrying. She was always busy and didn’t have so much time.

So they each took turns to bathe every day for the three of them.

Third brother was really weak and could only wipe his body clean. Second brother and fourth brother could move their hands, maybe sit in the basin and then climb onto the bed after bathing, using their arm strength. Of course, in the previous days, they had only wiped themselves clean, and only recently started bathing. Second brother had to be careful not to get his broken leg wet.

Anyway, she only brought the water into the master bedroom and didn’t care about how they actually bathed.

She could feel that when she brought the water into the room, the eyes of the three men in the room all fell on her.

Second brother’s deep gaze was not as icy as before, and he seemed to have something to say but hesitated.

She knew he had something to say.

He didn’t take the initiative to speak, and she didn’t feel like asking more questions.

Xiao Yuchuan watched her busy and his heart ached, “Wife, I think I won’t take a bath. It’s too much trouble and hard work for you to fetch and heat the water.

Just tell me what you didn’t finish saying earlier. Is it that you really like me?

Or is it that you’ve actually fallen in love with me a long time ago?”

Actually, you’re really annoying. She originally wanted to tell him that, but he wouldn’t be curious or itchy if she said it. So, she changed her tune and smiled slightly, “It’s a secret in my heart, I can’t tell you.”

At her words, Xiao Yishan and Xiao Qinghe also became curious.

What secrets were hidden in their wife’s heart?

“Wife, you always only say half of the sentence…” Xiao Yuchuan was anxious.

“Nonsense.” She snorted coldly, “I’m only doing this once. Don’t accuse me of always doing that. Next time you don’t want to bathe, tell me in advance. Don’t wait until I’ve heated the water and brought it over and then back out.”

“Alright.” He quickly nodded his head, “Since the bathwater is already prepared, and you’ve gone to so much trouble for me, I’ll wash. Otherwise, I might stink later when we consummate our marriage in the secondary bedroom, and you’ll complain about my smell…”

“Tsk.” She gave him a glance, “Hurry up and take a bath.”

“My hands and feet are weak, wife, will you help me?”

“Fourth brother, third brother is weak, but your hands and feet are strong. You can easily handle several hundreds of Jin of fish. It should be no problem for you to help third brother bathe, even if it means treating him like a fish to be gutted.” Qingyue spoke calmly to Xiao Qinghe, “Could you please help third brother bathe?”

“Alright.” Entrusted by his wife, Qinghe readily obliged.

“You don’t have to be too gentle. It’s okay to rub off a layer of skin.” Su Qingyue finished speaking and considerately closed the master bedroom door as she left.

“Wife, you closed the door but not the window. Are you trying to peek at my naked body through the window…” Yuchuan’s passionate words were cut off, as Su Qingyue slammed the window shut from outside with a loud “bang”.

In just the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Xiao Yuchuan’s voice came from inside saying he had finished bathing..
