Her face suddenly flushed, not out of shyness, but… she didn’t want to hurt anyone. Even though she had washed her hair, she hadn’t taken a bath, and her clothes were still smelly and dirty. She didn’t want to stink up Second Brother.

However, concern filled Second Brother’s face, as if he didn’t care about the stench on her body.

To Second Brother, she was just a beggar with a serious injury, and he was being so kind to her. What a good person!

She looked up at his rugged and resolute handsome face, with its well-defined angular features. He wasn’t super handsome, but he was very masculine and had a strong manly charm!

It was a pity that there were several scars on Second Brother’s left face, as if he had been scratched by something…

She took a closer look at the scars, which looked like… bear scratches.

Thinking that he was a hunter, she guessed he might have encountered a bear in the deep mountains and had an unfortunate encounter. Second Brother appeared to be 25-26 years old. She knew that, in ancient times, both men and women got married early.

Girls could get married at 15 years old, and boys could marry a wife at 16-17 years old. At Second Brother’s age, people in this era usually had already grown-up children in the village, right?

Where was Second Brother’s wife? Dead or gone?

Thinking about Second Brother’s unease when he helped her wash her hair, there were not only no women’s clothes and accessories in this house but also no children’s belongings. Could it be that Second Brother hadn’t married a wife yet?

It was also possible, considering how poor this house was…

Su Qingyue gazed at Xiao Yishan’s face, her heart churning with thoughts. If he hadn’t married a wife, she would find him a beautiful and gentle woman to be his wife in the future.

Xiao Yishan didn’t understand why his wife kept staring at his face. His left face was ruined, and in the past few years, it had scared away many women in the village. Even now, hardly any of the villagers, let alone women, dare to look directly at his ugly face.

He carefully observed his wife’s eyes, and it was clear that she wasn’t afraid of him. This made him feel a bit bitter and joyful as well. But the way his wife looked at him…

He couldn’t tell what she was thinking, but he always felt that it wasn’t the look of a wife to her husband, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Thinking about his scarred left face, he wanted to escape but then thought that she was his wife and would have to get used to it sooner or later. So he stiffened his body and nervously let her look as much as she wanted.

Suddenly, Su Qingyue felt it was impolite to stare at Second Brother like this, especially considering the scars on his left face. What if he misunderstood her and thought she was discriminating against him? She had no intention of belittling him.

To avoid any misunderstandings, she lightly parted her lips, “Second Brother, you are better looking than me.”

It was still soundless; her throat was in so much pain that only her lips could move.

Xiao Yishan had been staring at his wife the whole time, and he understood the few breaths she made to form the words.

She actually said he looked better than her!

His face instantly flushed as red as his neck.

Su Qingyue mischievously curved her lips, because she saw Second Brother’s face turn red.

If it weren’t for the close distance, it would be hard to tell that Second Brother’s dark and sexy skin could make him blush.

Indeed, mountain men were fun to tease. With just one sentence, she was able to dissolve any misunderstandings.

At least, he wouldn’t think she was belittling his scarred face now.

She saw that Second Brother had already prepared the bathwater in the room, so she turned around and walked into the room.

Xiao Yishan watched his wife’s excessively slender back as she disappeared..
