Picked Up A Husband For Farming

However, Gu poison wasn’t easy to cure. At the moment, all Xu Qing could do was nurse Xu Sizhi’s body. Otherwise, when the Gu poison was really expelled, no matter how powerful Xu Sizhi’s internal energy was, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

Xu Qing made a bucket of medicinal bath and let Xu Sizhi soak in it. Then, she started to apply the needle. The first needle pierced into the top of his head. In an instant, Xu Sizhi bit his lips in pain. When Xu Qing finished administering the needle for him, he fell unconscious. Xu Qing almost fell to the ground out of exhaustion.

“My stamina is lacking.” Xu Qing gritted her teeth and her face paled. Fortunately, she succeeded in the end. She temporarily restrained the Gu poison in Xu Sizhi’s body. After a period of recuperation, she would be able to completely expel all the Gu poison for him.

The next morning.

Qiao Yanhui and Xu Sizhi worked energetically, while Xu Qing looked weak.

Xu Qing was very angry about this. She was clearly not the one who was sick, but she was the weakest!!!

“Honey, it’s time to eat.” Qiao Yanhui held a bowl of black porridge and smiled innocently.

Xu Qing almost vomited. She shouldn’t have believed that these two men could cook!

“Don’t you like it? This porridge was personally cooked by me…” Qiao Yanhui said as he showed his burnt finger for Xu Qing to see. He looked very pitiful.

Xu Qing’s heart softened. She braced herself and was about to drink it all. From the corner of her eye, she saw that Auntie Wu was here. Xu Qing hurriedly put down the bowl of porridge in front of her, as if she had seen her savior.

In an instant, Qiao Yanhui squatted in the corner aggrievedly.

Xu Qing really didn’t expect herself to be so weak. Perhaps it was because she had suffered when she gave birth. She was just a little tired yesterday, but she fell ill today. If she drank Qiao Yanhui’s porridge now, she would probably die. Therefore, Xu Qing chose to ignore his grievances.

It was also because Xu Qing was sick that Xu Sizhi felt very guilty. He took care of Xu Qing and the three children even more diligently.

As for Qiao Yanhui, he had been accompanying Xu Qing in all sorts of ways these past few days. At night, he even took off his clothes to warm Xu Qing’s bed! Xu Qing was enraged. If not for the fact that she had a fever and lacked strength, she really wanted to kick Qiao Yanhui to death. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

In the morning, when Xu Qing woke up again, she saw Qiao Yanhui shaking the crib and smiling at the three children like a fool.

The second son, Xu Tingdeng, and the younger sister, Xu Hanxue, cooperated and replied to Qiao Yanhui with bright smiles. Only the eldest son, Xu Yuanguang, turned his head with a look of disdain, as if he couldn’t bear to look at Qiao Yanhui.

Qiao Yanhui didn’t understand and teased Xu Yuanguang even more. “Yuan’er, smile like Daddy!” After saying that, Qiao Yanhui laughed even more exaggeratedly.

“Hmph.” Xu Yuanguang snorted and closed his eyes to sleep.

“Yuan’er isn’t cute at all! I’m ignoring you. I’ll dote on Ting’er and Hanxue even more in the future,” Qiao Yanhui said as he made a face at Xu Yuandeng.

Xu Qing originally thought that the scene in front of her was very heartwarming and was in a good mood. However, when she heard Qiao Yanhui call himself the children’s father, she immediately sat up angrily. “Little Hui? Who allowed you to let the children call you daddy?”

Qiao Yanhui said excitedly, “Little Zhi said it. I’m your husband, so I’m the children’s father.” He had long forgotten that Xu Sizhi had specifically instructed him not to let Xu Qing know that he had said it. In the end, Qiao Yanhui, who was slow-witted, said it directly.

When Xu Sizhi entered the straw hut, he saw Xu Qing’s murderous gaze and instantly felt a chill down his spine. “I still have some business to attend to. I’ll leave first!”

“Xu Sizhi!” Xu Qing’s roared, but Xu Sizhi had long disappeared.

Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui, who was playing with the children happily, and felt even angrier. However, she felt that this scene was heartwarming. Xu Qing was shocked by her sudden thought, then she turned around unhappily and continued to sleep. She had to recuperate first.

Xu Qing rested for a few more days and felt much better. She asked Xu Sizhi about the matter she had instructed him to do.

Xu Sizhi replied, “There are three carpenters in the village. One is Old Master Chen, and the other is his son, Chen Shanxing. The other is your second uncle, Xu Jiangnan.”

Xu Qing was a little surprised. She didn’t expect Xu Jiangnan to be a carpenter. However, with his crafty ways, she definitely couldn’t use him. Moreover, Xu Qing didn’t want to be entangled with the Xu family. After all, she wanted to find a carpenter because she wanted to open a shop in town. She couldn’t delay earning money anymore.
