The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man
Chapter 1300 - Chapter 1300 1300 Unwilling to Return to the Village

Chapter 1300: 1300 Unwilling to Return to the Village Chapter 1300: 1300 Unwilling to Return to the Village Xiao Yishan’s face was cold, and he said nothing.

“Brother Xiao, how can you not understand my heart?” she said in agony, “Nowadays Su Qingyue is so wealthy, she doesn’t care at all about your modest assets.

I followed you without a name or status, even signed a deed of sale, and you still doubt my sincerity?”

Xiao Yishan’s expression softened a bit.

After such a long time together, she was very satisfying to him in bed, and he admittedly harbored some fondness for her.

“Brother Xiao, for the fields in Wushan Village, you only kept eight acres for yourself to farm, and rented out the rest.

Why not hire someone to cultivate all eight acres?” she suggested.

“Your fourth brother is in town, and as his elder, you should take care of him.

The rents from our properties will still come in, and you can have your third brother find you a job in town, couldn’t you?”

“Last time I was helping third brother build his house, if not for the fight you and fourth brother had during the New Year, why would I have fallen out with third brother and Yue’er?” said Xiao Yishan, his complexion turning ashen.

“If it weren’t for that, Yue’er wouldn’t have had Yinzhu settle the wages with me directly.

How can I now ask third brother to find me a job with any face?

You seem to have forgotten, when third brother’s shop opened, he didn’t invite me or you at all.

It was you who persistently begged me to go.”

Li Rong’er was a clever woman who knew when to be compliant.

She immediately lay on his chest, “Brother Xiao, it’s all my fault.

Because of my mistakes, you now have a grudge against third brother.

But what brothers bear grudges forever?

Besides, you’re blood brothers.”

“I regret having protected you, it hurt fourth brother greatly.” A look of pain crossed Xiao Yishan’s resolute face.

“This morning at the pharmacy entrance, fourth brother saw me and ignored me as if I wasn’t there.” Fourth brother had always respected him; he had never acted like this before.

“It’s all my fault,” wept Li Rong’er, tears streaming down her cheeks.

“But I’ve already erred, and if you don’t protect me, given third brother’s nature, he will certainly sell me.

I remember all the kindness you’ve shown me, Brother Xiao.

From now on, I will serve you even more diligently and will not make the same mistakes again.”

If she hadn’t made such promises before, and immediately been compliant after their intimate moments, he would not have softened his heart.

For Rong’er, who was tender and affectionate, even the iron-willed Xiao Yishan was moved.

He knew that Rong’er was at fault and that fourth brother had been wronged, but in the end, Rong’er was still his woman, Xiao Yishan’s woman.

Even if she had made mistakes and was now repentant, and fourth brother’s injury had healed at the time, he couldn’t just watch her be sold by third brother.

If he couldn’t protect his own woman, what kind of man was he?

Rong’er cried and hugged his waist, “Brother Xiao, ever since you fell out with third brother, you have been unhappy.

This time he opened his shop and didn’t invite you, and it’s been weighing on your mind.

That’s why I deliberately asked you to bring me here.

It’s not because I want to face those people; I did it all for you, Brother Xiao.”

In fact, she had long grown tired of the seclusion of Wushan Village in the countryside.

Having served as a maid in the Fang Mansion for five years, she preferred the bustling town life.

Even if it was just staying a day in the Xiao Family’s guesthouse today, being served by servants, having a female cook prepare meals, and with all furniture in the side room being of medium to high quality, it was much more comfortable than Wushan Village.

In Wushan Village, she had to do everything herself.

With the spring coming, it seemed like Xiao Yishan intended her to help with farming the land as well.

She was not about to become his drudge!

Even being a temporary resident at the Xiao Mansion was definitely better than in Wushan Village.

Here, with such a pleasant environment, she wouldn’t have to do any work.

Even if there was work to be found, it would be Xiao Yishan who would look for it, she just had to enjoy herself.
