Xue's daughter-in-law

Chapter 87

Every winter when Xue Bai is on vacation, nothing is more happiest than Chun Xing.

Of the three cousins, Xue Song is the elder, busy and taciturn all year round, Chun Xing admires him but is a little afraid, and dare not joke with him at all.As for Xue Shu, because of her health, Chun Xing took care of her second brother more. It was okay to play together, but she would not tell him about her little troubles, and he would not understand if she did, so she just Xue Bai, who is two years older than her and gentle and coaxing, has become her favorite cousin.Whenever there is nothing to do in winter, she would go to Xue's house to pester Xue Bo, learn to read from him, and listen to him tell stories in the book.Ever since Xue Bo went to school, winter has almost always been like this.

This year was no exception. She stayed at Xue's house for two out of three days.

The bright sunlight illuminated most of the kang, and also illuminated the four people sitting on the kang.

Xue Shu sat cross-legged on the edge of the kang, with a big dustpan in front of him, which contained sticks just taken from the roof.The broken rice at home is almost finished, and new ones have to be made, so I have to rub the sticks.First use the awl to push out a few rows of gaps on the stick, and then you have to rub it with your hands.Ye Ya also helped at first, but Xue Shu saw that her fingers turned red after rubbing her a few times, so he immediately stopped her and pushed her into the kang.Ye Ya had no choice but to sit beside him and do needlework.

And Xue Bai and Chun Xing were sitting at the low table in the middle of the kang.Because the east room is deserted, Xue Bo reads in the west room during the day, and Chun Xing knows that he will end next spring, so she stops pestering him to ask questions, and just sits quietly on one side, reading some simple books, and occasionally Xue Bo was tired and took a rest, so he took the initiative to talk to her, and she pointed to the new words she encountered before and asked them out.

The atmosphere is peaceful and quiet.

After sitting for a while, Ye Ya suddenly felt a little sore in her waist, so she put down the work in her hand, straightened her waist, stretched out her hand and squeezed it by herself.As soon as he pinched it, he felt someone's eyes on her.Her heart skipped a beat, and she quietly raised her eyes to look, and sure enough, she met Xue Bai's eyes that implied worry and concern.The young man was sitting facing east, his face bathed in the soft sunlight was as white as jade, and he was looking at her while holding a book in one hand.

Ye Ya lowered her eyes uneasily, this is not the first time, Xue Bai has been home for more than a month, he often looks at her like this openly.

It is impossible for her to not understand his thoughts. At the beginning, Xue Song looked at her like this, but Xue Song looked at her secretly. When she looked over, he would look away in embarrassment, and then he gradually became bolder. Looking directly at her, it forced her to lower her head and dodge.Now, Xue Bai's eyes are more open-minded, as if he sees her as a very normal thing, and he is not afraid of her getting angry at all.Only when Chun Xing was present, he restrained himself a little.

What does the third brother want?
Ye Ya was very confused.The man's meaning couldn't be more obvious, but he didn't say anything. If he didn't say anything, she would have no reason...to persuade him.Speaking rashly, if he denies it, it will appear that she is being affectionate, and it will be very embarrassing to get along with her in the future.Moreover, she couldn't figure out whether he really liked her, or if he was simply curious about the relationship between men and women, because she was the only woman around him who he could explore, so she did those behaviors.

In fact, if Xue Bo's eyes could be more lewd and let her know that he is just coveting her body, she would scold him or tell Xue Song to let him persuade Xue Bo to be quiet, but she has known him for so long, how can her clear and elegant third brother Could it be the kind of lustful villain?Just like this month, he would help her with all kinds of trivial housework, and the two of them would have short-term physical contact, but he would quickly back away, so as not to make her feel uncomfortable at all, while Xue Shu went to the warehouse or When delivering things in the town, he even stayed in the east room obediently...

Let's say he is polite, he dares to watch her help her in front of Xue Shu, and say that he is not polite, but in private he has no presumptuous petty actions.Ye Ya really didn't know what he was thinking.

But what made Ye Ya even more uneasy was her own heart.It stands to reason that she is his sister-in-law, and she should be annoyed and angry when my uncle stared at her so blatantly and unrulyly for so many times, and reprimanded him for not offending herself, but she didn't, she was just nervous and afraid, and she was so focused and gentle by Xue Bai Looking at it, she couldn't restrain the rapid heartbeat in her chest.

Is it because she likes Xue Bai?Ye Ya couldn't explain clearly, and didn't dare to think deeply.

Whether it was before or now, she felt that a good woman should only belong to her husband, both physically and mentally, but she didn't know when she fell in love with Xue Song, and even agreed to be his and Xue Shu's daughter-in-law.Agreed, at first she felt guilty and felt that she was a bad woman, but when she saw how happy Xue Song and Xue Shu were, and thought that when they were together, they were still as peaceful and happy as before, she gradually stopped being entangled This is the question, what do you think about so much?Just let everyone live a good life. Now that you have agreed, what's the use of struggling with those worldly rules?Besides, the rules are always dead, how many people really abide by them?It's like the law strictly prohibits theft and murder, but people are still locked up in the prison of the county government. In morals, sisters-in-law and concubines have always been taught to be harmonious and peaceful, but in those rich and powerful families, are there not many conspiracies and filth?Compared with those, she didn't do anything harmful, and she didn't take the initiative to seduce uncles and uncles. She dare not say that she is a good person, but she can't be considered a bad person, right?
Thinking about it, Ye Ya was taken aback for a moment, why did she think of going there? It seemed like she was giving herself an excuse to accept her third brother...

Her face was so hot, forget it, since the third brother didn't say anything, she just continued to pretend to be confused, and if he did, she would explain the reasoning to him.It really doesn't matter whether she likes the third brother or not, the important thing is that it is impossible for her to agree to him.If he wants to take an examination of merit and become an official, there must be no stains on his body.In the future when he is away from home, she and Xue Song staying in this small mountain village will not affect him, but if they are together, Xue Boding will ask them to go to work with him. It's easy to attract suspicion, besides, when he becomes an official, even if Xue Bai doesn't want to marry a wife, he still has times when he has to. Instead of feeling sorry for her at that time, it's better not to be together in the first place.

Ah, it can't be done, the more I think about it, the further I go, the third brother may not think about it.

Ye Ya turned sideways, trying to avoid Xue Bai's gaze, but when she twisted her waist, there seemed to be something strange down below.

She said to herself, "Oops, it's not going to happen, is it?"
"Second sister-in-law, I think you look very pale, is there something wrong?" Seeing that her complexion turned pale suddenly, Xue Bai put down his book and asked worriedly.

When he said this, both Xue Shu and Chun Xing looked up at Ye Ya.

Ye Ya smiled at them, "It's okay, but I've been sitting for a long time, and my back is sore. You guys stay here. I'll go out and take a walk." Saying that, she stood up while supporting Xue Shu's shoulders. When she turned around, she pretended to look casually. Taking a look at the place where she was sitting just now, she saw that it was clean, she secretly rejoiced, maybe she guessed wrong.

But when she walked out of the house and was blown by the cold wind outside, she suddenly felt uncomfortable, with throbbing pain in her lower abdomen.At this time, she had no luck, she clutched her stomach and went to the hut, took off her clothes and pants, and she really came.Ye Ya's head was suddenly as big as a bucket, and Xue Bai was still in the room, how could she go to the closet to find the cloth belt!

Facts have proved that Xue Bai is smarter than she thought.

In connection with the movement of her supporting her waist, her pale face, and the glance she gave when she got up, Xue Bai had already guessed that she went directly to the backyard after she left the house.He waited silently for a while, went down to the stove to drink water, and opened the thick curtain of the north gate to look out. There was no one in the yard. Guessing that she was hiding in the hut and did not dare to come out, he quickly went back to the room and sat down calmly. After a while, she said to Chun Xing with a smile: "Xiao Xing, let's eat here at noon, I'm going to another house."

"Ah, it's already noon? Then I'll go back quickly, and my mother asked me to go back early to help." Chun Xing immediately put on her shoes and got off the kang, ignoring Xue Bai's persuasion, and walked out quickly.Once or twice is okay, how can I have lunch here every day?Wouldn't that be someone who came here to grab a meal?

Xue Bai sent her to the door, and then asked Xue Shu to look for Ye Ya: "Second sister-in-law has a stomachache again, second brother, go pick her up, I'll go back to the east room and sit for a while."

Xue Shu let out an "ah" and ran out quickly.As soon as he went out, he saw Ye Ya clutching his stomach and slowly moving this way.

"Daughter-in-law, let me carry you back!" He greeted her and said anxiously.

Ye Ya shook her head, helped him walk in with his big warm hands, and asked him curiously: "Why did you come out?" It's not a problem to hide in the hut, she wanted to go back and find an excuse to distract Xue Bai.

Her hands were cold, and Xue Shu was so distressed, "The third brother said that your stomach hurts again, so let me come out to pick you up. Daughter-in-law, don't worry, let's go back to the house and lie down. It hurts." Since the daughter-in-law fainted from the pain that time, she has been in pain several times during the period, and every time the daughter-in-law has a stomachache, she likes to hug him, Xue Shu knows how to take care of her daughter-in-law.

"It's okay, I don't hurt." After a short surprise, Ye Ya smiled weakly.In fact, they pampered her for half a year, and every month they stewed two silky chickens to make soup to get used to her. Every day after breakfast, Xue Shu would definitely feed her two or three jujubes, and at night before going to bed, she would soak them as Xue Bo ordered. With a bowl of honey water, her body is already much better, and she is no longer in pain like at the beginning, only her back was sore and uncomfortable on the first day.

"If it doesn't hurt, you have to lie under the blanket and cover it. Your hands are too cold." Xue Shu insisted, supporting her steadily.

Ye Ya really wanted to lie down, so she nodded and didn't insist.

Fortunately, Xue Bo was really considerate. After entering the house, Ye Ya realized that Chun Xing had already left. The quilt had been spread on the kang, but Xue Bai was nowhere to be seen, probably in the east room.

It's warm in my heart, it doesn't matter if I like it or not, he is her good third brother.

Xue Shu went outside to boil hot water, Ye Ya lay down on the bed, changed the belt of obscene trousers, and covered the corners of the quilt to rest.She was cold, really cold.

After lying down for a while, the curtain above her head slammed, Ye Ya only thought it was Xue Shu who came in, and didn't look up.

There was a warm hand covering her forehead, it was a completely unfamiliar touch, Ye Ya's heart skipped a beat, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Xue Bai sitting sideways beside her pillow, looking down at her, his gentle gaze was like wicker on the lake. The circles and ripples caused instantly disturbed her peaceful heart.

"Third brother, you..." He shouldn't have made such an intimate gesture.

"Second sister-in-law, are you feeling bad?" Xue Bai interrupted her softly, withdrew his hand, but when Ye Ya breathed a sigh of relief, he reached into the bed, grabbed her cold little hand, put it in his palm, and clasped his hands together. Together, keep her warm.

Ye Ya's heartbeat was about to stop, she shrank back blushing, Xue Bai frowned, "Second sister-in-law, don't move around, your hands are cold, I'll cover it for you, you don't know, I've wanted to take care of you like this for a long time .”

"Third Brother, don't..." Ye Ya was suddenly very nervous and scared, she didn't want him to say it.

But Xue Bo didn't give her a chance to flinch, he held her hand firmly, leaned over and placed a light kiss on her smooth forehead, then raised his head slightly, staring at her affectionately with his lacquered peach blossom eyes: "Second sister-in-law, you should see it. I like you, so you know? Actually, I have liked you for a long time. Second sister-in-law, let me take care of you like the eldest brother and second brother, okay?"
