The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

“I wouldn’t bother hitting someone who talks too much.” Liu Zheng pointed at Liu Xianglian’s swollen face, “Xiao Yuchuan, you hit my daughter. So many people saw it. Kneel down and apologize to my daughter and pay for her medical expenses!”

“Kneel down and apologize?” Xiao Yuchuan sneered, “I didn’t ask your daughter to kneel down and apologize, which is already a favor! Your daughter insulted my wife last time, causing her to commit suicide by jumping into the river. If it weren’t for hearing that you locked up your daughter for a few days, I wouldn’t want people to gossip that I have something going on with your daughter. Otherwise, I would have gone to your house and slapped your daughter long ago. It’s already late for me to hit her now.”

Su Qingyue was a little confused after hearing what Xiao Yuchuan said, “I committed suicide by jumping into the river? For you?” Did it start raining? She looked up, and the sun was in full swing.

Xiao Yuchuan nodded, his handsome face full of emotion, “Wife, don’t be foolish again. I really have nothing to do with Liu Xianglian. Don’t be jealous about it and jump into the river again. If it weren’t for second brother discovering it early, you would have already…” As he spoke, he tried to hug her.

She dodged to the side, her face still full of doubt.

How could she not know about such a big thing like committing suicide?

She thought back to that day when she was so dirty that even she couldn’t stand it. She was passing by the river bank when she saw several women washing clothes.

She didn’t pay much attention and continued walking.

She was seriously injured at the time, and her brain was dizzy. It took her more than twenty minutes to walk the five or six minutes distance, trying to protect her injury.

And then, just as she was about to take a satisfying shower, her second brother appeared…

She was so disgusted with her own dirtiness that she was determined to take a shower, but second brother stubbornly refused to let her. A bunch of villagers followed, watching the commotion.

Her voice was hoarse and shaky, just like it is now, so she didn’t have the energy to listen to what the villagers were saying.

She tried to talk to second brother, but her pitifully hoarse voice was like a whisper, and he couldn’t hear her.

So that’s why second brother and the villagers overreacted—they thought she was trying to commit suicide…

Su Qingyue’s head was full of dark lines at this revelation.

She was an outstanding killer, and had survived inhuman training in the assassin organization, her will to live incredibly strong, right?

Her committing suicide was something that would never happen, even if the sky fell down.

She realized that everyone thought she was the original owner of this body. It wouldn’t be surprising if the original owner had such a temperament.

Seeing Xiao Yuchuan busy claiming she committed suicide for him, she really wanted to clarify that she hadn’t committed suicide, especially not for him!

And seeing Liu Xianglian’s greedy appearance, trying to extort money…

The Xiao family was poor enough; she didn’t want to add insult to injury, so she kept quiet and swallowed her grievances.

Xiao Yuchuan failed to hug his wife and saw her stern little face, “Wife, are you angry? Don’t be angry. I really have nothing to do with her… ‘

“I don’t want to hear you talk.” She was already dizzy with his repeated use of ‘wife’, “Your wife is already dead.” It was the truth.

“My poor wife.” Xiao Yuchuan’s face was full of heartache, “You’re still alive and well. Why do you mention death? Wife, you must never lose hope again…

You’re not thinking of jumping into the river again, are you…?”

“Yeah, Qingyue,” Wang Cuihua comforted her, “You have to trust Chuan. Chuan is not that kind of person.”

Liu Zheng slapped her thigh, “Hey! What kind of world is this? Chuan’s wife commits suicide, and it’s all blamed on my daughter Xianglian!”</p
