“It hasn’t come to that yet,” she said and left the firewood room.

Outside the door of the firewood room, Chen Daniu was still leaning against the wall, deeply asleep in a seemingly collapsible posture.

Su Qingyue thought maintaining such a sleeping position was quite a skill.

Xiao Yuchuan also came out and she instructed, “Don’t forget to lock the firewood room and put the key back in Chen Daniu’s pocket.”

“I won’t forget.”

After they finished speaking, they climbed over the Zhu Family’s courtyard fence and headed in the direction of home.

A gaze watched them leave with a cold indifference, the corners of the mouth lifting slightly.

After Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan returned to the Xiao Family’s courtyard, they saw Xiao Qinghe was still in the yard.

“Fourth Brother, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?” Su Qingyue frowned slightly, “Your wind-cold has just improved, and you haven’t slept well these past few days.

You should go and rest properly.”

“Qingyue, has the cause of Zhu Daqi’s death been verified?” he asked with concern, “Can you guess who is setting you up?”

“I have it under control.

Fourth Brother doesn’t need to worry,” she yawned, closing the courtyard door, “I’m going to sleep, I haven’t slept well for ages, truly exhausted.”

“Fourth Brother should also go to sleep,” Xiao Yuchuan said with concern as well.

Su Qingyue looked at the weather, “Early in the morning, surely someone will report to the officials to capture me.

If they leave by cow cart, and the government office sends people, they’ll arrive by noon at the earliest.

I still have half a day to sleep.”

Xiao Yuchuan suggested, “Wife, why don’t you find somewhere to hide?”

“It’s not too late to hide when the government soldiers arrive.” She entered the room, and he followed her in.

Although Xiao Qinghe was worried, he still trusted that Qingyue knew what she was doing.

It seemed like there was nothing she couldn’t handle.

In the side room, Su Qingyue took off her outer garment and lay down on the bed piled with thick bedding.

This was much more comfortable than the cold wooden raft on the cold pool.

She didn’t know what had become of the raft she and Third Brother had made by hand.

At that time, Third Brother had jumped into the pond water and swam away with her, leaving a pile of firewood burning on the raft.

At most, the raft would have burnt and sunk into the pond water.

It didn’t matter.

She couldn’t help but reminisce about those difficult days in the water, clinging to life with Third Brother.

“Ah, it hurts!” she wandered off in thought, and suddenly he was inside her.

“You?” Her eyes, bright and clear, widened.

“Wife, give meaEUR| I’m still afraid I’ll lose you.

I thought I would never be able to be with you againaEUR|” His voice was laden with deep concern, and the love in his dark eyes, bright as the starry morning, was unmistakable.

Her heart softened, thinking about how he had let her leave the cold pool alone to survive.

She was actually quite moved.

Despite being extremely exhausted, she responded passionately.

An hour later, they finally fell asleep in each other’s arms.

Around noon, perhaps because Xiao Yuchuan was worried, he was sleeping lightly and woke up.

Looking at the small woman nestled in his arms, his expression was full of affection, “You lazy pig, get up.

If you don’t, the government soldiers will catch you.”

She mumbled, “Want to sleep moreaEUR|”

He kissed her directly, kissing her breathless until she finally awoke, “Okay, okay, I got it.”

She said, “The government office will probably send someone directly to investigate this case.

I also want to see how the case is progressing.”

Walking to a chest, she took out a long strip of white silk and tightly bound her chest with it.

Since she had some money on hand, she liked to be prepared in advance, so she had available some disguising clothes and items.

“Wife, what are you doing?” he asked, feeling distressed as she bound her chest so tightly, that was his treasure.
