The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 1051: 1051 Warm Heartbeat Chapter 1051: 1051 Warm Heartbeat Li Rong’er saw his towering presence was full of cold ruthlessness, the scars on his disfigured left face became more apparent deeply etched by rage, filling her with dread, “Brother Xiao, I was just telling the truth.

Is feeding someone less important than Fourth Brother’s life?”

A useless person, always causing trouble.

It even got her scolded; she held Xiao Qinghe in even lower regard in her heart.

Xiao Yishan saw the fear in Rong’er’s eyes.

He used to think this woman was not afraid of his disfigured left face, but now it seemed she was just hiding her fear.

Whenever his left face was turned towards her, she would avert her gaze or find an excuse to look elsewhere.

At first, he thought she was just shy.

It took him a long time to realize she was afraid, avoiding eye contact and pretending to be bashful. Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet

Even during moments of passion, this woman would not look him in the eyes, always keeping them closed.

With this thought, his facial expression darkened.

He found himself lacking any appetite even for a meal.

In the evening, Su Qingyue carried a bucket of water out to the yard.

Before the family was divided, in one corner of the fence in the yard, there were two vegetable plots, and four more in the backyard.

After dividing the family, the six vegetable plots were distributed, two plots for each household.

Xiao Yishan’s family got a plot in the front courtyard, and another plot in the front courtyard was given to Qinghe.

A wall had now been built between Su Qingyue’s family and Xiao Yishan’s, though they still shared the main gate with Qinghe.

Fourth Brother was lying on the bed.

Su Qingyue saw that the vegetable field allocated to Fourth Brother was getting dry, so she carried the water and evenly watered the field with a long-handled wooden ladle.

Xiao Yishan walked into their courtyard and saw Su Qingyue watering the vegetable field; her actions were graceful, as if watering the field was a leisurely pleasure rather than tending to farming chores.

Unlike other married women, she didn’t tie up her hair.

Her waterfall-like tresses flowed down her back to her waist, slender as a willow, and as a breeze came, her long hair fluttered lightly.

Just her silhouette alone, so elegant and refined, could compare to the nine heavens profound girl herself.

Countless times, her silhouette had moved him.

Thinking back to her once sallow and spotted complexion, why had he not paid attention to her incredibly beautiful features?

If he had known she was so stunningly beautiful, he, Xiao Yishan, would never have even looked at another woman.

He also understood clear; the medicine on her face had been to guard herself against him, Xiao Yishan.

A pang of pain surged in his heart, and he called out softly, “Yue’er…”

She turned to glance at him, her gaze indifferent and serene as water.

His cold and tough heart started to beat fiercely, as if it were experiencing the throes of first love.

Approaching her, he intended to take the wooden ladle from her hands to help her water the vegetable field, but she placed the ladle back into the water bucket, “This plot is sufficiently watered.”

He stared at her breathtaking face, her clear and sparkling eyes, and when she spoke, her tender red lips parted slightly, so inviting that he felt a sudden thirst in his throat, a strong urge to kiss and savor them.

Su Qingyue didn’t like Xiao Yishan standing so close to her; his towering figure created an overwhelming sense of pressure for her.
