Chapter 625: 625:
It was the sa this ti as well.
His anxious mood gradually cald down and beca smooth. He just stared blankly until dawn filled the sky.
He found that the water tank in the kitchen was empty, so he began to fetch water. Later, his eldest brother and the others also woke up. These past few days, except for the Third Day, Third Brother hadn’t co back. In fact, he vaguely knew what Third Brother was thinking, because in his heart, he was actually... actually a bit sad as well.
His wife woke up very early today and didn’t linger in bed like she did yesterday. What was strange was Fourth Brother—who ca out of his own room, not from his wife’s.
Had Fourth Brother not stayed overnight in his wife’s room last night?
He thought confusedly, and afterward, he quietly observed his wife, who went to the kitchen and, together with Little Liu, took care of the family’s breakfast.
His gaze stuck to his wife, and she probably noticed because when she turned around, she caught him red-handed. He felt extrely uncomfortable and quite panicked, and this panic made him lose control over his expression, putting on a fierce, villainous face and yelling harshly.
His wife was stunned. After blurting out, he also felt quite regretful.
It had been a long ti since he had yelled at her. He wanted to treat her well, but he was too anxious. He had things hidden in his heart, and he was preoccupied with the evening’s matters.
His wife turned her head back.
He was deeply uneasy.
Was she angry?
After breakfast, his wife went to the pharmacy. Xihui Courtyard was large with many rooms, and his wife had a special room for preparing various dications, like the fragrant balms and ointnts and the Scar Removal Ointnt that Third Brother transported to Balibao by carriage, all were produced from this small pharmacy.
Yixuan was ticulous and skilled with his hands. His wife’s younger brother, Dong Nian, was also very good at blending scents. That woman surnad Yun always clung to his wife. He disliked that woman; why did she compete with them for his wife’s attention? His wife was theirs, and Miss Yun was a woman—shouldn’t she seek out n instead of always trying to attract his wife’s attention?
He felt sour, as if he had drunk a vat of vinegar, his gloomy eyes constantly darting towards the four of them.
Ever since Third Brother decided to open a shop, everyone in the house had been busy. During the day, these four were always together. He felt sad, envying Yixuan. Even though Yixuan was a younger brother, Little Liu was skilled, but he was clumsy, unable to help, only capable of causing more trouble if he tried...
Yue Ning, holding a broom, swept the courtyard and saw Fourth Brother carrying a knife and leaving the house. There were mountains nearby, and Da Bai liked to roam in the mountains. He and Fourth Brother used to hunt there, but today he didn’t want to leave.
He waited and waited since morning until noon and then waited so more until it finally beca evening.
Right after dinner, he saw Second Brother giving him a half-smiling glance, and he grunted. Honestly, the grunt had no particular aning—just an instinctive response—but sohow, his face sported a deeply annoyed expression.
Second Brother laughed.
This ti he was genuinely upset, even though he knew Second Brother ant no harm. Still, the way Second Brother looked at him always made him feel like he was being criticized for his clumsiness.
He sulkily scratched his head, then subconsciously started looking for his wife’s figure.
Where had his wife gone?
He was surprised for a mont and then hurriedly got up to look for her. He first went to his wife’s room, didn’t see anyone, and Purple Garden was simply too big. Until the sky turned very dark, he still hadn’t found anyone.
Where had his wife gone?
