Chapter 965: 965 Rong’er gets fanned

“I believe,” her voice was soft.

Her voice was clear, melodious, and sweet, washing over him like a spring breeze.

He looked at her beautiful profile and didn’t know if it was because he liked her too much or what, but he always felt that even if her face was full of spots, she would still look better than Tao Meijiao, the universally acknowledged beautiful young lady.

After the two returned to the Xiao Family, they saw Xiao Qinghe reading medical books in the yard, and Tao Meijiao sat bored beside him, daydreaming.

Seeing Su Qingyue coming back, she immediately greeted her, “Xiao Yue, you’re back?”

“Mhm,” she smiled faintly, “Bored, aren’t you?”

“Xiao Qinghe is like a mute gourd, I’ve talked my mouth dry, and he barely responds to me,” Tao Meijiao complained.

“Fourth Brother, Meijiao is a guest, don’t neglect her,” Qingyue also spoke up for her.

Xiao Qinghe’s graceful eyes glanced at her, a touch of sadness flashed through his lids.

Did she really want to push him towards other women that much?

Xiao Yuchuan placed the back basket in the yard, and Xiao Qinghe reached out to take it, “Third Brother, I’ll take care of the drying.”

The herbs picked by Qingyue were usually dried by whichever of them was free, unless there were some special ones that she would handle personally.

“Alright,” Xiao Yuchuan picked up a scythe from the storage room and mentioned that he was going to cut grass for the horse, then left.

The six plots in the yard were also split two per household.

Li Rong’er was watering the vegetable field in the front yard.

The vegetable field allocated to the second brother was planted with common vegetables like greens and winter melons, which were now almost ready to eat.

About one hour later, Xiao Yuchuan returned carrying a load of fodder and piled it under the firewood shed in the corner of the yard.

The firewood shed was just four columns with tiles on top, wood piled underneath, and one of the shed pillars tied with the horse’s reins.

Xiao Yuchuan fed the horse with fodder.

Xiao Qinghe came over in a wheelchair, “Third Brother…”

He turned his head and glanced at his fourth brother.

Qinghe said calmly, “The horse-drawn cart is no use to me, I can’t go out to gather fodder.

You’ve been the one gathering fodder for some time now.

The horse-drawn cart might as well be yours.”

“It’s fine, gathering fodder is a minor task, and one cutting feeds the horse for several days.

Helping to gather fodder is just incidental.

Even if I didn’t help, with a few copper coins, anyone in the village could do it, and it would be convenient,” he replied.

“But…”

“There are no ‘buts.'” Xiao Yuchuan stated, “Moving heavy objects is a bit easier with a carriage.”

Xiao Qinghe wanted to say more but, seeing his third brother so adamant, he said no more.

Li Rong’er stood at the doorway to Xiao Yishan’s side room, watching the Xiao Family’s third and fourth sons talking.

She looked at that horse-drawn cart, well aware that it cost the Xiao Family twenty-four taels of silver.

To give such a carriage to a paralyzed guy who couldn’t even gather fodder, she felt very uncomfortable.

Xiao Yishan returned to his room, and she quickly followed, “Brother Xiao, I just heard Xiao Qinghe say he wants to give the flatbed cart to your third brother.

Why won’t he give it to you?”

Xiao Yishan’s back stiffened, “That’s the fourth son’s business.”

“Su Qingyue too, knowing full well that Xiao Qinghe can’t even gather fodder, and yet she gives the horse-drawn cart to him, why not to you…” Her words were cut short as she caught Xiao Yishan’s hardening expression and immediately shut her mouth.

“Why the fuss?

Haven’t you heard Yue’er say that it’s her money, and she can give it to whoever she pleases!”

Rong’er’s eyes welled up with tears of grievance, “I’m just indignant for you.

When you bought Su Qingyue with your silver, now that she’s gained skills and has money, she pushes you aside with a kick…”
