Xiao Qinghe was startled and immediately came over in his wheelchair, “Wife! Qingyue, are you alright?”

She shook her head, feeling not pleased but rather weighed down like a stone was pressing on her heart because his first reaction was concern for her.

How wonderful it would have been if he first showed concern for Meijiao instead.

Xiao Qinghe sized her up and saw that she was safe and sound, then heaved a sigh of relief, “It’s good you’re not hurt.” Confused, he asked, “How come I didn’t notice anything about last night?”

“Last night, after Shi Fang entered the yard, he first deployed Bewitched Smoke in every room, so you fell into a deep sleep.

Shi Fang intended not only to steal money but also, upon seeing me with Tao Meijiao on the bed, became lustful…” She stopped as she saw the worry on her fourth brother’s face, “Don’t worry, both Meijiao and I are fine.

Because third brother and I didn’t pass out.

Shi Fang was beaten half to death by third brother, who then took him to the government office—estimating his return by noon.

Meijiao was concerned for you and, after a strenuous night, stayed in your room to keep watch.”

Xiao Qinghe knew that with his wife’s medical skill, mere Bewitched Smoke couldn’t harm her.

The more he learned medicine from her, the more astonished he became at her profound medical knowledge and scholarly depth.

He believed, whoever truly interacted with her would fall for her and be captivated by her.

“Fourth brother, from yesterday to today, you haven’t eaten a grain of rice or drunk a drop of water,” Su Qingyue said with a slight frown.

“Don’t do this in the future.

Everyone should learn to cherish themselves.”

His heart warmed, “Wife, do you still care about me?”

Looking at his refined features, she said, “In my heart, I’ve always treated you like a brother, just like the way I feel about second brother.

Do you understand?

Even setting that aside, you are Yuchuan’s biological brother, my young uncle, so of course I should care about you.”

A bitterness spread through his heart, “The so-called biological brothers…”

She looked at him curiously, “Fourth brother, what do you mean by that?”

Faced with her clear and pure eyes, Xiao Qinghe truly didn’t want to lie, but he had sworn an oath that he would never reveal that secret, “It’s nothing.

Sometimes, I really wish I weren’t third brother’s biological brother; then I wouldn’t have to worry about brotherly affection.” Yet, he and third brother were closer than true brothers.

Su Qingyue saw that he was reluctant to elaborate and didn’t press further.

However, doubts arose in her heart, based on fourth brother’s words just now…

It seemed there was some issue with the brotherhood between him and third brother in terms of their bloodline?

Xiao Qinghe, feeling a little flustered under her gaze, said, “I’m going to make breakfast.”

Su Qingyue was about to say that she would do it, but then thought it would be good for Qinghe to have something to do, so she let him be.

Initially, they had been cooking separately, but since fourth brother was preparing breakfast for her and Meijiao, they all ate together.

Tao Meijiao did not come out to eat breakfast; it was Su Qingyue who brought it to her room.

By noon, Xiao Yuchuan had returned.

Today’s sun was intense.

Xiao Yuchuan drove back in a horse-drawn cart, inside which were bamboo baskets containing a basket of fish and another of pig offal.

Those two bamboo baskets belonged to the family, kept on hand for carrying purchases, so he had brought two empty baskets with him.

After parking the horse-drawn cart, Xiao Yuchuan called out, “Dear, I’m back!”

Su Qingyue, originally taking a nap in her room, came out upon hearing his voice and saw the sun-reddened face of Xiao Yuchuan, “What’s got you so happy?”

“Tomorrow’s our wedding day, how can I not be joyful?” His smile was brighter than the sunshine.

She also took out a piece of white silk to wipe the sweat off his face.
