“The one I have is much better-looking than yours. It gave birth to a litter of four puppies. Once they’re weaned, I’ll catch one for you,”

“No need.” She said, “Raising one is enough.”

“True, the Xiao Family has no fields or land. Even raising one more dog requires food.” Wang Cuihua thought, “Or maybe, you should just stop raising this mixed-haired dog; it’s a waste of food… ”

Su Qingyue looked back at the little mixed-haired dog guarding the shore; the little fellow didn’t understand human words and wasn’t aware that someone was suggesting not to raise it.

Seeing its owner looking over, it made a pleasing “howl” sound.

Su Qingyue shifted her gaze back to washing clothes, “Let’s keep it. Once I decided to raise it, I can’t abandon it halfway; it’s a living being too.”

“That’s true, having a dog to guard the house is not bad.”

A few village girls and women washed clothes by hitting them with a wooden stick, but Su Qingyue preferred to use her hands to scrub.

Ding Er’s wife said, “Wife of the Xiao Family, why don’t you use a wooden stick to beat the clothes? Men’s clothes are dirty; using a stick saves energy.”

In modern times, Su Qingyue didn’t wash clothes at all. She didn’t like having strangers in her home, and although she didn’t hire a nanny, she had a part-time cleaner doing the laundry with a washing machine. Modern technology is indeed more convenient. She honestly said, “We don’t have a clothes-beating stick at home.” “What did you use to wash clothes before?”

It was obvious that the original owner of the body didn’t wash clothes after coming to the Xiao Family. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have looked so disheveled, “I just washed them casually.”

“Qingyue, I’m done washing.” Wang Cuihua handed her the clothes-beating stick, “Here. We have another one at home. You can keep this one.”

“Alright.” Su Qingyue took the wooden stick, which was a little longer than her elbow and had one big and one small end. It was smooth, not valuable at all. She saw other girls mixing soap pod liquid with wet clothes and beating them with sticks, so she followed suit.

She looked up and saw Wang Cuihua standing beside her, so she asked, “Didn’t you say you were done?”

“I’m waiting for you to finish so we can go together.”

Su Qingyue said, “You can go first. Our homes are not together.”

“No, it’s fine. I have nothing to do at home today.” Wang Cuihua showed no intention of leaving.

One by one, the others finished washing their clothes and left. Only when they were alone did Wang Cuihua say, “Qingyue… ”

“Hmm?” She asked while washing clothes.

“Well…” Wang Cuihua squatted beside her, “Last time, when I took you back home, and my Grandma asked you to pay the debt… I knew she would press you for it, but I just couldn’t stand her scolding. She’s really petty and unwilling to suffer losses… I’m really sorry.”

“It’s okay.” She smiled, “You don’t need to keep thinking about it. I didn’t take it to heart.”

“You’re really too kind.” Wang Cuihua wanted to help her wash clothes, but it would be inappropriate for an outsider to wash her husband’s clothes, so she simply chatted beside her, “Qingyue, do you know that people in the village are talking about you?”

“What are they saying about me?” She wasn’t too concerned. Perhaps her face was even thicker than third brother’s, and she didn’t mind being talked about.

“It’s about the matter of you asking around yesterday about who’s better-looking between your third brother and fourth brother…” Wang Cuihua said, “I thought you only asked at my house. Turns out, many people in the village mentioned that you asked them too. They all say you really are… ‘

She became curious, “Really are what?”

“Really shameless. Asking others such questions, some people say harsh things like you’re lustful.” All three men in the Xiao Family were Qingyue’s husband, so if she wants her husband, there’s not much for the villagers to say..
