Chapter 796: 796 Widow likes second brother
Li Rong’er looked at him coldly, “Xing, in the Fang Mansion, originally you were just doing odd jobs. I spoke well of you to the young Lady, so you do not have to do heavy work, but only need to look after the flowers and plants in the yard. I was kind to you, and now you have received my money, so you best keep your mouth shut.”
“Of course.” Xing didn’t intend to betray her.
Li Rong’er didn’t say anything else.
In the following days, Li Rong’er maintained minimal contact with Xiao Yishan. There were occasional encounters in the yard of the Fang Mansion, passing by without a word, there were unintentional exchanges of glances.
She had noticed that Xiao Yishan never looked at the other won in the Mansion, refusing even the advances of Lady Mo ruthlessly. However, sotis his gaze would linger on her for a mont.
At the very least, this indicated that his feelings towards her…were sowhat different than those for others.
…
The villagers of Wushan Village work from sunrise to sunset as usual.
That evening, Su Qingyue was sitting in the yard of the Xiao Family’s new residence, watching the sunset.
Second Brother had not returned for seven days.
He had only sent a ssage saying that the employer in town, the Fang Mansion, was rushing for the project completion. Therefore, all part-ti workers in the Fang Mansion had to live there to avoid delaying the project.
Wang Cuihua walked into the Xiao Family’s yard, looked around, and asked, “Qingyue, has your second brother not returned yet?”
She nodded.
Wang Cuihua pulled out twelve copper coins from her bosom, “My dicinal mud toothpaste at ho is used up, give a small pot.”
Su Qingyue then went into the room where the herbs were kept, scooped a pot of dicinal mud toothpaste from the big jar, covered the small pot with the lid, and handed it to her, “You don’t need to pay, it’s a gift from .”
“How could that be?” Wang Cuihua forcibly handed the money to her. Su Qingyue insisted on refusing. Finally, Cuihua said, “Thank you. Last ti you gave Furwa 100 cents for food, and this ti you paid for this, I am really grateful.”
“Didn’t you say we are friends?” She said carelessly, “This dicinal mud toothpaste is not bought with money, so don’t be polite.”
Seeing Xiao Qinghe cooking in the kitchen, Wang Cuihua lowered her voice and said, “Qingyue, your second brother hasn’t returned in seven days, has he?”
“Yeah.”
Cuihua worriedly said, “Qingyue, I need to tell you sothing.”
“Go ahead.”
“My husband, Fuquan, has also gone into town to do part-ti work these past few days. I heard him say that he knows so workers who often look for part-ti work together in town. One of them is called Huang Da, who is very clever. Sotis he can get so contracts as a foreman. When he can’t get a contract, Huang Da just finds work with others. This ti Huang Da got a job from the Fang Mansion in town, and your second brother is working in the Fang Mansion with Huang Da.”
Qingyue nodded, “I know about this.”
“Yesterday, my husband Fuquan ca back from town.” She said, “I heard from Fuquan that there’s a female cook in the Fang Mansion nad Lady Mo, who’s a widow and always flirts with your second brother. That shaless woman even said that she would sleep with your second brother without him having to take responsibility.”
Upon hearing this, Su Qingyue chuckled, “Unexpectedly, second brother’s popularity has certainly improved. I initially thought no one would dare approach him.”
“Your second brother is universally acknowledged to be mature, stable, and of good character. Even though the left side of his face was ruined, anyone with so insight and vision knows that a man’s face can’t provide for him.” Wang Cuihua said, “Not to ntion your second brother is young. Even soone in their forties or fifties, like Wealthy Wan from the neighboring town, has many won like Liu Haitang throwing themselves at him. I know you and the Xiao Family are not related anymore, but other won trying to seduce your second brother…”
