Im back, Third Brother. Dont worry, her mother has everything prepared for her. When 1 left, her complexion seemed a little pale, but there were no other issues. Gao Xiaomei said as she set down the basket in her hands and took a seat on a stool.
Tong Sanlang hummed in response, a flicker of annoyance crossing his face.
Indeed, Zhuang Luhe hadnt been away for many years. Qiao Xiaomai was a young woman now, and it was only natural that Zhuang Luhe would discuss such matters with her.
Plus, even without Zhuang Luhe, Qiao Xiaomai herself would surely have some knowledge of this matter.
He realized he had overestimated Qiao Xiaomais capabilities. Having witnessed her weak and helpless state, he had perceived her as a fragile creature in need of support.
Consequently, he went to ask Gao Xiaomei to check up on her.
Qiao Xiaomai, despite her weaknesses, was surely capable of coping with her menstrual cycle. He hadnt drunk the Love Potion today, so why was his mind in a constant fog?
His internal vexation surged wave upon wave while he maintained an impassive exterior. His gaze fell on the basket next to Gao Xiaomei as he remarked, The bean sprouts taste good.
So Xiaomai told you. Gao Xiaomei giggled as she peered at Tong Sanlang, speaking gossipy tones, Third Brother, this is the first time Ive seen you showing so much concern for a girl.
Earlier, her brother, Gao Xiaoshan, had hurriedly dispatched her with menstrual pads, leaving no time for her to make fun of Tong Sanlang. Now that she was back, she planned to probe princely.
Tong Sanlang remained unperturbed, continuing his task while nonchalantly responding, So?
Im just curious! Gao Xiaomei declared, slapping her thigh, After all, youve gotten on in age. If you dont settle down soon, you will become old. Xiaomai is not bad, in my eyes. If you have genuine feelings for her, 1 can help you propose a marriage.
Her brother, a year younger than Tong Sanlang, had his marriage arranged early and was to wed after the wheat harvest. For a seventeen-year-old not engaged yet, he was indeed getting long in the tooth.
No need. Tong Sanlang refused.
His mind felt seriously out of whack today. He needed to pull himself together and take some time to reflect.
Even if he decided what his feelings were, considering Qiao Xiaomais unreadable strength, he wouldnt dare to casually propose.
He had a heavy responsibility to bear. His matrimonial decisions needed careful consideration.
You really dont need my help?
No, I dont.
Gao Xiaomei clicked her tongue, But Xiaomai told me earlier that she doesnt like you.
Tong Sanlang
There was a momentary stiffness in his handsome face.
The usually silent Gao Xiaoshan suddenly chuckled, Well, well, theres a girl in our village who doesnt like you, Third Brother.
With an expressionless face, Tong Sanlang glanced at him and continued his work, Im not made of gold or silver. Who said everyone should like me? Oh, this sounds a bit resentful. Xiaomai said that she was only interested in earning money, and didnt want to think about anything else. If you were gold or silver, she would surely like you. Gao Xiaomei playfully slapped her thigh again.
Upon hearing this, Tong Sanlangs long eyelashes quivered slightly.
Could that be it?
Actually, he had a lot of silver
Realizing his thoughts were taking a dangerous turn, he frowned. Where on earth were his thoughts wandering today?
Why does he keep having these strange thoughts?
Could it be that some sort of enchanting spell had been cast on Qiao Xiaomai, causing his mind to be in disarray?
Hmm
It could also be that he had never been so close to a girl before. Therefore, after holding Qiao Xiaomai earlier today, his mind was all over the place.
Recalling the lingering scent on his nose, Tong Sanlang reaffirmed his idea. Yes, it must be that. A few days of rest would surely do him good.
However, Qiao Xiaomai didnt like him. She didnt like him!
It was reasonable to assume that Qiao Xiaomai didnt like him after she had changed her inner core, but why did he feel odd when he heard Gao Xiaomei say it out loud?
