Chapter 823: 823 speaks well of second brother.

Li Rong’er walked to the kitchen doorway and saw Xiao Yuchuan eating with Su Qingyue; she didn’t dare to barge in, “I… May I fetch a basin of water? The fourth young Master said he wanted to help the second young Master clean his injury.”

Perhaps because the third brother was so protective of her, Qingyue was in a good mood, and she pointed at the first towel behind the door, “That towel belongs to the second brother.”

Li Rong’er understood her meaning, that she was permitted to fetch water, “Thank… Thank you…”

Just last night, she had been thinking of finding a way to frame Su Qingyue and devise a plan to drive her away.

When Su Qingyue cruelly stabbed Xiao Yishan earlier, that scene had scared her out of her wits, and she suddenly didn’t dare to provoke Su Qingyue any longer. To be able to plunge a knife into her husband’s body without even blinking an eye, she, Li Rong’er, could not afford to offend such a person, even if she was somewhat cunning.

Moreover, Su Qingyue didn’t even allow Xiao Yishan to call her wife, so she was no longer her enemy.

...

She had indeed heard that Liu Haitang from the village had been sent back by her husband’s family and was harboring thoughts of reconciling with Xiao Yishan. She should be wary of that woman named Liu Haitang.

Su Qingyue cast a glance at Li Rong’er’s meek and compliant face. She really knew how to act, and her scheming was deep.

However, as long as she didn’t interfere with Su Qingyue’s affairs, there was no need to bother about her.

As for Li Rong’er, she wasn’t exactly disliked by her.

At most, Li Rong’er was Xiao Yishan’s wife, the second sister-in-law of the third and fourth brothers.

She couldn’t help but take another look at Li Rong’er. This woman might be good at putting on an act, but she did take decent care of the second brother, and she hadn’t shown any intention to abandon him. Seeing that the third brother was more handsome than the second brother and not trying to seduce the third brother instead showed that she maintained a certain ethical standard.

It was evident that Li Rong’er wished to sincerely spend her days with the Xiao Family.

As Su Qingyue continued to eat the rice in her bowl, she said to Xiao Yuchuan, “Third brother, actually, it’s a good thing for Li Rong’er to stay for the second brother.” While this woman definitely had the Xiao Family’s wealth in mind, who doesn’t love money? Within a reasonable limit, it was still tolerable.

Li Rong’er, carrying the water basin in the yard, paused for a moment upon hearing this, and couldn’t help but look back at Su Qingyue with gratitude. She understood that Su Qingyue’s words meant that she acknowledged her relationship with Xiao Yishan.

During her five years as a maid at the Fang Mansion, she was initially just a servant with a death contract. She spent her days at the Fang Mansion doing the roughest, toughest jobs. The head steward back then was vile in character and even had his lecherous eyes on her…

From a servant who was at everyone’s mercy, to a maid and attendant by the young Lady of the Fang Family, to someone who could serve as a reading companion and even have the opportunity to learn to read…

The death contract being altered to a five-year living contract involved struggles that no one knew of.

And couldn’t be let known by anyone.

That was the stigma of her lifetime.

Now, with Su Qingyue’s magnanimous vindication, she would not make things difficult for her.

She carried the water basin into Xiao Yishan’s room.

Xiao Yuchuan, hearing his wife say this, nodded in agreement, “At first glance, Li Rong’er seems to know when to advance and when to retreat. The second brother’s left face was scarred, and I’ve noticed that among women, except for you, no one dares to directly look at the scar on the second brother’s face. Although Li Rong’er can’t be said to be completely unafraid of the second brother’s scar, she has not shunned it either.”

“Hmm,” she nodded.

“Wife, let me tell you,” Xiao Yuchuan said, “the second brother has a mature and stable personality. Sometimes, perhaps due to family responsibilities, he tends to overthink which leads to him fearing the wolf ahead and the tiger behind. But he is definitely a responsible person.”
