“Qingyue, here, you drink.” Xiao Qinghe smiled lightly, “I’m not thirsty.”

“I’ll go fetch water so that everyone has something to drink.” Su Qingyue turned around to leave, but Xiao Qinghe grabbed her hand. “Don’t go…”

His wife’s hand was so small and warm.

Holding her hand, his heart pounded nonstop.

Su Qingyue stiffened for a moment and looked back at him.

Facing his wife’s clear eyes, Xiao Qinghe felt a hint of nervousness and reflexively let go of her hand.

“Yue’er, it’s so late. I can’t help but worry if you go out,” said Xiao Yishan with a deep and concerned voice. “Please don’t go out.”

Xiao Yuchuan added, “Wife, don’t go. It’s okay to be thirsty for a while. My heart would be worried if you went out to fetch water late at night.”

Su Qingyue looked at their concerned faces and drank a quarter of the water in the bowl. “Then let’s each have a little. It’s better than not having any.”

She handed the bowl to second brother.

Xiao Yishan refused, “I don’t need it…”

She said gently, “Sharing what little we have; second brother, please don’t decline.”

“Alright.” He took a sip.

“That’s less than a quarter.” Her voice was somewhat cold. “Keep drinking.”

Xiao Yishan felt both touched and helpless but drank two more sips and passed the bowl to Yuchuan.

As Xiao Yuchuan drank the water, he felt a warmth in his heart. Wife said…

sharing the sweetness and bitterness. Even though he couldn’t read, he understood the meaning behind his wife’s words. That is, a family shares what they have to eat and drink.

After leaving a quarter of the water in the bowl, he passed it to Xiao Qinghe.

After Qinghe finished the water, he handed the bowl back to Su Qingyue.

She took the two empty bowls back to the kitchen, unaware that three pairs of affectionate eyes were watching her from behind.

Once she left, Xiao Yuchuan said, “Second brother, let my wife sleep next to me later.”

“She won’t agree,” said Xiao Yishan, frowning. “If she sleeps next to you, you’ll end up touching her.”

“Touching my wife is only natural…”

“We agreed to wait until she’s willing…”

Yuchuan pulled a face. “Second brother, you forgot that I can’t move now.”

Xiao Yishan glanced at his third brother. “Good.”

“Second brother…”

“So you won’t keep thinking about your wife.”

“As if you don’t think about her too…”

Xiao Yishan’s face darkened, and he remained silent. He did think about her. But he could see that his wife only accepted the third brother. She wouldn’t even let the third brother call her “wife.” He did so insistently. Thinking of his ruined left face and the age gap between them…

When he faced her, he always felt unworthy of her.

He also wanted to call her “wife” like the third brother, but he was afraid of her straightforward rejection – that she wouldn’t want to be his wife.

Xiao Qinghe sat on the bed, wanting to stay in the master bedroom and sleep with his wife. He didn’t dare to imagine sharing a blanket with her – he just wanted to be a little closer to her.

This wish soon came true.

Footsteps approached, and the room quieted down. Su Qingyue came back to the doorway and said, “Besides the newly purchased five jin of ginger, there’s only one and a half jin of flour left to eat. I thought that if the medicinal mud toothpaste works well, people would still buy it. So I bought five jin of ginger in advance to prepare for making more to sell after picking the medicine. Tomorrow I’ll go to the mountain to find some wild vegetables to eat. The remaining flour isn’t enough for our family to have a meal, but I’ll try not to let you go hungry. When we don’t have enough food, we’ll just make do..”
