Chapter 796: 796 Widow likes second brother

Li Rong’er looked at him coldly, “Xing, in the Fang Mansion, originally you were just doing odd jobs. I spoke well of you to the young Lady, so you do not have to do heavy work, but only need to look after the flowers and plants in the yard. I was kind to you, and now you have received my money, so you best keep your mouth shut.”

“Of course.” Xing didn’t intend to betray her.

Li Rong’er didn’t say anything else.

In the following days, Li Rong’er maintained minimal contact with Xiao Yishan. There were occasional encounters in the yard of the Fang Mansion, passing by without a word, there were unintentional exchanges of glances.

She had noticed that Xiao Yishan never looked at the other women in the Mansion, refusing even the advances of Lady Mo ruthlessly. However, sometimes his gaze would linger on her for a moment.

At the very least, this indicated that his feelings towards her…were somewhat different than those for others.

…

The villagers of Wushan Village work from sunrise to sunset as usual.

That evening, Su Qingyue was sitting in the yard of the Xiao Family’s new residence, watching the sunset.

Second Brother had not returned for seven days.

He had only sent a message saying that the employer in town, the Fang Mansion, was rushing for the project completion. Therefore, all part-time workers in the Fang Mansion had to live there to avoid delaying the project.

Wang Cuihua walked into the Xiao Family’s yard, looked around, and asked, “Qingyue, has your second brother not returned yet?”

She nodded.

Wang Cuihua pulled out twelve copper coins from her bosom, “My medicinal mud toothpaste at home is used up, give me a small pot.”

Su Qingyue then went into the room where the herbs were kept, scooped a pot of medicinal mud toothpaste from the big jar, covered the small pot with the lid, and handed it to her, “You don’t need to pay, it’s a gift from me.”

“How could that be?” Wang Cuihua forcibly handed the money to her. Su Qingyue insisted on refusing. Finally, Cuihua said, “Thank you. Last time you gave Furwa 100 cents for food, and this time you paid for this, I am really grateful.”

“Didn’t you say we are friends?” She said carelessly, “This medicinal mud toothpaste is not bought with money, so don’t be polite.”

Seeing Xiao Qinghe cooking in the kitchen, Wang Cuihua lowered her voice and said, “Qingyue, your second brother hasn’t returned in seven days, has he?”

“Yeah.”

Cuihua worriedly said, “Qingyue, I need to tell you something.”

“Go ahead.”

“My husband, Fuquan, has also gone into town to do part-time work these past few days. I heard him say that he knows some workers who often look for part-time work together in town. One of them is called Huang Da, who is very clever. Sometimes he can get some contracts as a foreman. When he can’t get a contract, Huang Da just finds work with others. This time Huang Da got a job from the Fang Mansion in town, and your second brother is working in the Fang Mansion with Huang Da.”

Qingyue nodded, “I know about this.”

“Yesterday, my husband Fuquan came back from town.” She said, “I heard from Fuquan that there’s a female cook in the Fang Mansion named Lady Mo, who’s a widow and always flirts with your second brother. That shameless woman even said that she would sleep with your second brother without him having to take responsibility.”

Upon hearing this, Su Qingyue chuckled, “Unexpectedly, second brother’s popularity has certainly improved. I initially thought no one would dare approach him.”

“Your second brother is universally acknowledged to be mature, stable, and of good character. Even though the left side of his face was ruined, anyone with some insight and vision knows that a man’s face can’t provide for him.” Wang Cuihua said, “Not to mention your second brother is young. Even someone in their forties or fifties, like Wealthy Wan from the neighboring town, has many women like Liu Haitang throwing themselves at him. I know you and the Xiao Family are not related anymore, but other women trying to seduce your second brother…”
