Xiao Yishan quickly stopped him, “Third Brother, what are you doing!” Seeing Su Qingyue still in a deep sleep on the bed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Second Brother, I should be asking you that! I intend to throw her out!” Xiao Yuchuan was furious, “We had agreed previously that even if we found this woman, we wouldn’t keep her. We planned to sell her cheaply to the human traders. Why did you bring her back?”

Xiao Yishan didn’t know why either. Even when he saw her almost beaten to death in town, he felt nothing. The steamed bun stall boss had beaten her until… she looked dead.

No, she must have fainted. When she woke up again, her eyes were no longer weak. Clear and appealing, he simply didn’t want to see her getting beaten anymore. The moment he held her up in town, their eyes met. Her gaze seemed brighter than before. She used to be afraid to look directly at his scarred left face, but when she woke from her faint, her eyes were so calm, as if the scar on his left face didn’t exist.

That look made his heart skip a beat.

“I don’t want to sell her…” he muttered.

Xiao Yuchuan was irritated, “She’s been in our house for a month. Every time we approach her, she screams and shies away, not allowing any touch. While at the Zhu Family’s, she didn’t have this attitude. It’s rumored that she tried to get close to the Zhu Family’s brothers several times, intending to solidify her relationship with them by cooking rice for them. They dismissed her because they didn’t like her. Don’t you understand, this type of woman, who despises the poor and loves the rich, won’t settle for our humble home. Even if she does have her own thoughts, what irks me is that she stole your hard-earned eight taels of silver after we have treated her well during her stay. Unforgivable!”

Thinking of the eight taels of silver, Xiao Yishan felt stifled. Fourth Brother’s leg illness requires him to take medicine on time. If the medicine were to run out, Fourth Brother’s leg pain would be unbearable.

“Does money grow on trees? It’s not as if every time I go hunting, I get lucky. Are you going to ignore Fourth Brother’s treatment just to spare her? Now that Fourth Brother is out of medicine, where are we going to find silver to buy it?” Upon thinking of Fourth Brother, Xiao Yuchuan also felt distressed.

“I will go up the mountain to hunt early tomorrow morning.” Xiao Yishan couldn’t think of any other solution.

Xiao Yuchuan saw that his second brother still disagreed about selling Su Qingyue and tried to appeal to his emotions, “Second Brother, don’t let her sweet talk blind you. We are not the ones she wants to stay with. If you keep her around, who knows what valuables she’ll steal from our house…”

“She won’t…” Xiao Yishan glanced at her, whose brows were knitted even in her sleep. Her sleep must be restless.

“Defending against a thief day and night is hard but defending against a house thief is even harder. How can you be certain she won’t?” Xiao Yuchuan was very annoyed. “Are you only happy when our house is robbed by her again?”

Xiao Yishan kept silent with a cold face.

Xiao Yuchuan’s tone softened, “Second Brother, I know you have been toiling hard all these years, supporting the entire family. I am frustrated with my own incompetence. I just believe that no matter how hard it gets for us, we cannot be short on Fourth Brother’s medicine money…”

Xiao Yishan was utterly confused at this point, “In short, let’s not talk about selling her anymore.” He genuinely didn’t know how to explain to Third Brother, even he himself didn’t understand why he was reluctant to sell her.

Seeing the Second Brother’s firm attitude, Yuchuan had no choice but to sulk and go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Xiao Yishan made sure that Su Qingyue was well covered with the quilt and then turned around to leave the yard.
