How he wished to help her fetch water to spare her the effort, but unfortunately, he was disabled and couldn’t take practical action. He could only think about it in his heart.
“Hmm.” Su Qingyue nodded slightly, “I speared a basket full of fish from a stream up in the nearby mountain, and killed a snake with a knife. I took off the head, tail, and snake skin, and only brought back the chunks of snake meat. I also found a nest with nine bird eggs up the mountain, so I brought those back too. What would you like to eat at noon?”
Upon hearing this, three expressions of alarm appeared on the faces of the men. Xiao Yishan looked at her anxiously, “Yue’er, you encountered a snake, did you get injured anywhere?”
“Qingyue, are you okay?”
“Wife, are you hurt?”
All three voiced their concerns almost simultaneously.
“There’s no need to worry,” she replied casually, “No one can hurt me if I don’t want them to.”
There was a moment of silence before Xiao Yishan spoke up, “Yue’er, maybe you should stop going out. There are over 200 jin of mushrooms at home, and a basket of fish. We can eat sparingly. When we get a little better, we can go hunting in the mountains again…”
“Yeah, wife…” Xiao Yuchuan also hurriedly voiced his concern, “I don’t feel at ease with you, a weak girl, going out alone. Once I recover, I can go and make money…”
Su Qingyue shook her head, “I’m not a weak girl, otherwise how could I spear fish with such accuracy? You don’t need to worry about me. Besides, this food won’t last long if we don’t have our own stores at home. Second brother, third brother, you two won’t recover in a hurry. Just rest at home properly for the next two months. The mushrooms… I mean ‘fungus’, I’ve asked Aunt Zhang to ask Auntie Hua to see about it for me. Wang Xiaoliu’s family in the neighboring village will host a banquet tomorrow, I’ll ask if the Wang Family wants to buy mushrooms. If they do, I plan to sell whatever I can sell.”
“You make the decision. There’s no need to consult us,” Xiao Yishan said with an air of seriousness. He was thinking to himself that as soon as he could move, he would have to go hunting to provide for the family. He couldn’t let his wife endure such hardships.
Xiao Yuchuan shared the same sentiments.

Only Xiao Qinghe’s eyes expressed an unspeakable bitterness.
“Do you have any preferences for lunch or dinner?” Su Qingyue asked again. Xiao Yuchuan declared, “We’ll have whatever you decide.”
She got up and went to the kitchen, skillfully started the fire, and fried about nine jin of mushrooms. She kept a quarter of the snake meat pieces from the back basket, and cut the remaining three-quarters into thin slices for frying.
She only had ginger for seasoning, but she had good culinary skills, and generously used oil. By the time the fried mushrooms and snake meat were ready, the aroma was so mouth-watering.
The fragrance from the fried dishes filled the air, and the three men in the master bedroom couldn’t help but feel their stomachs rumble.
Su Qingyue divided the fried snake meat and mushrooms. Like in the morning, she brought fourth brother’s share into his room and asked him to eat first.
Then she proceeded to feed the second brother and Yuchuan.
When it was Yuchuan’s turn, he ate the fragrant snake meat and praised, “Wife, you’re so skilled at cooking. The snake meat is tender and flavorful, it tastes so good that I could iust swallow mv tongue.”
After swallowing, he became concerned again, “Wife, snake meat can be sold at a good price, wouldn’t it be a waste to eat it?”
“No, it’s not. Snake meat has the benefit of replenishing energy, strengthening muscles and bones, beautifying the skin, and curing diseases. It’s not a waste to eat it. When we have money, we can even buy it to eat.”
“Wife, as long as we’re with you, there’s always meat to eat,” Xiao Yuchuan sighed contentedly.
Hearing this, Su Qingyue stiffened for a moment, then smiled and said, ‘Yes, there is always meat to eat when you’re with me..”
