To avoid worrying her second brother, she wanted to give him a heads up, but there were many villagers coming to the yard to buy wild game.

Her second brother was busy selling wild rabbits and wild pheasants, as well as roe deer meat. She didn’t have an opportunity to talk to him.

Maybe by the time she came back, her second brother would have finished his job too.

So, she simply went to the riverbank alone.

There were quite a few onlookers, but there were only about twenty people actually buying meat. Some people bought just a few taels, many bought one or two jin, and the most anyone bought was four jin.

After skinning and removing the internal organs, head, and feet of the eighty-jin roe deer, there were only fifty-two jin of meat left. They sold a total of forty-five jin, with seven jin left over.

When the last buyer paid, Xiao Yishan looked under the eaves and saw that Su

Qingyue had disappeared. He quickly asked, “Where’s my wife?”

A villager replied, “She left the yard a while ago.” freewebno vel.com

Xiao Yishan’s face changed, fearing that she had run away again. He hurriedly went to the entrance of the courtyard and asked people, “Has anyone seen where my wife went?”

Wang Adou, who was not far ahead, said, “Just now, someone saw your wife go that way.” He pointed in the southern direction.

That was not the way out of the village. Xiao Yishan felt a little relieved. He didn’t even bother to clean up the leftover meat on the counter and went to look for his wife.

He didn’t mind that a few villagers hadn’t left, knowing that third brother and fourth brother were at home.

In the daytime, Fourth Brother hardly sleeps, and the room’s window faces the yard, so he can see everything in the yard from his room.

Most of the villagers were quite decent, and generally, no one would steal from other people’s homes.

Walking slowly step by step towards the fields in the south, Su Qingyue tried to walk as gently as possible to avoid shaking her injured internal organs.

When she arrived at the riverbank by the fields, she saw a few women washing clothes. She continued walking along the riverbank. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝑚

“Hey! The Xiao Family’s daughter-in-law!” Zhang Shun’s wife called out while beating wet clothes with a wooden stick and shouted.

Su Qingyue didn’t hear and naturally didn’t respond.

“Look, she’s ignoring people,” Zhang Shun’s wife was unhappy.

Liu Laoshi’s daughter, Liu Xianglian, also said, “Yeah, she’s so ugly and disgusting, I heard Brother Chuan wouldn’t sell her even for seventeen taels. Look at her attitude, so arrogant, thinking she’s a young Miss. She won’t even respond when we greet her. In my opinion, Brother Chuan is confused. This ugly monster is worse than a beggar. Let alone seventeen taels, she should be sold cheaply for three to five taels. It’s a waste of food to keep her!”

Wang Cuihua, who was also washing clothes, defended, “Xianglian, you shouldn’t be so harsh. She’s already so pitiful, and we shouldn’t talk about her like that. It’s not right…”

Liu Xianglian got angry, “Wang Cuihua, are you defending her? Su Qingyue is an ugly mute, why shouldn’t we talk about her? I know your husband is close with Brother Chuan. But you should understand, Brother Chuan doesn’t like Su Qingyue at all. If you really want to help Brother Chuan, go and tell your husband to persuade Brother Chuan to sell that ugly woman!”

Wang Cuihua knew that Liu Xianglian was no good, unlike her honest father, Liu Laoshi. She was as mean as her mother, “Oh, Xianglian, you act like you care so much about the Xiao Family.. Do you want Brother Chuan to sell Su Qingyue so you can marry him? Even if Brother Chuan would agree,
