The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 842 - : How should I deal with you?

Chapter 842: How should I deal with you?

“Wife… wife…” Xiao Yuchuan muttered unconsciously in his deep sleep.

Su Qingyue collected the poison he had spat out, initially planning to study it in the pharmacy to determine the ingredients and create a prescription for the antidote.

She heard him calling her name even in his deep sleep.

Thinking that he was temporarily out of danger, she too sat back down by the bedside.

“Wife… don’t leave me…” His voice was intermittent and uneasy in his slumber.

Su Qingyue sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to stroke his pale, handsome face, her heart filled with pain. “Third brother, you fool, what am I to do with you?”

...

He flailed his hands, “Don’t go… don’t go…”

She held his large hand, whispering with parted lips, “Fine, I won’t go. I won’t go anywhere, I’ll stay by your side.”

Holding third brother’s hand, she realized how large and broad his palm was, almost twice the size of her small hand.

Xiao Yuchuan’s grip on her small hand tightened, his long eyelashes trembled as he opened his eyes and said weakly, “Wife, I heard what you just said… you promised to stay by my side…”

She immediately tried to withdraw her hand, “Weren’t you unconscious?”

“Wife, this is just my moment of lucidity…” He cracked a smile, holding on to her warm little hand tightly, refusing to let her pull away. “You can’t go back on your word now.” If wife knew that the poison he just drank was actually… he wondered if she would kill him.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she gave him a reproachful look with her bright, watery eyes.

Seeing her playful appearance, even though her face was marred with spots and not pretty, he found her particularly pleasing to the eye. “Wife, I can’t hold on any longer, I’m really going to pass out this time…”

“Pass out my foot!”

“Come up on the bed and sleep with me…” He yawned and murmured.

“I’m not going to study the antidote for fear that your illness will deepen.”

He chuckled softly, causing a sharp pain in his aching abdomen, and his thick eyebrows furrowed. “If I die with you by my side, I’ll die happy…”

She really was a fool.

If she didn’t want him to die, how could he bear to leave her?

He clung to her hand tightly, but soon fell back into unconsciousness.

Su Qingyue looked at him, even in his sleep he seemed somewhat unscrupulous, and she truly didn’t know what to do with him.

Trying once more to withdraw her hand, he held on tightly and wouldn’t let go, so she had no choice but to lie down next to him, fully clothed.

In the adjoining side room, Li Rong’er looked at the bandage stained with blood on Xiao Yishan’s chest. “Second young master, I’ll go call fourth young master to redress your wound.”

“No need.” Xiao Yishan’s face was ashen as iron.

From yesterday to today, quite a lot had happened in the Xiao Family.

His wife had almost left, making him anxious like ants on a hot pot, knowing in his heart that since the day he tore up her deed of Sale, it was inevitable she would leave one day.

What he didn’t expect was that in order to keep his wife, third brother was willing to give up his own life.

With his wife wanting to leave, fourth brother remained silent the whole time, without a single word trying to retain her.

He really didn’t know what fourth brother was thinking.

Li Rong’er still left the room, and before long, Xiao Qinghe came in carrying a medicine box.

“Second brother, second brother, your wound is bleeding again; it needs to be treated.” Xiao Qinghe opened the medicine box.

Xiao Yishan let him reapply the medicine to his wound, his disapproving eyes glancing towards Li Rong’er.

She bowed her head and knelt on the ground. “Second young master, I didn’t disobey your orders on purpose. I couldn’t stand to watch your wound get worse, so I went to fetch fourth young master without permission.”
