The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 484: 484 Try Sitting in Wheelchair 1

The little bastard was also furiously lapping at the water in its bowl.

Qingyue fetched some water to wash her face and wipe off the sweat from her body before entering the master bedroom. Seeing the cloth on the wheelchair still untouched, the three big men were standing by it, staring and completely clueless.

“What are you just looking at? Why aren’t you unwrapping the cloth?” she asked nonchalantly.

“Wife, this wheelchair looks so expensive,” Xiao Yuchuan chuckled sheepishly, “better you unwrap it.”

“You country bumpkins.” She said with a smile.

The expressions of the three brothers froze all at once, but she didn’t mind it, “I’m also a country bumpkin. I had the same reaction as yours when I first saw the wheelchair. I grew used to it while coming back to the village from the town.” That’s odd though. She has only seen this kind of wooden wheelchair on television.

“Wife, you really know how to make people happy.” Yuchuan winked at her, “I was wondering, how can a wife of a man from the mountains not be a village girl.”

“Buzz off.” She responded proudly, “I’m a village girl with culture.”

With that, she unwrapped the large cloth cover on the chair, revealing the deep red lacquered wheelchair.

The three men stared at the wheelchair even more intensely. Yuchuan praised stingily, “Wow! So high-end. I’ve never seen such a good wheelchair. When I used to sell goods, I saw others’ wheelchairs. But theirs were so much inferior to this one. Wife, this costs a fortune, doesn’t it?”

“Five taels of silver.”

“That’s pretty good.” He was not jealous, but felt guilty again because it wasn’t him who bought it for fourth brother.

Even though he knew the wheelchair was obviously bought for fourth brother, he still deliberately asked, “Wife, I also can’t walk properly, who did you buy this wheelchair for?”

Xiao Qinghe became nervous when third brother asked this.

There was a possibility it was given to third brother. After all, third brother was the most handsome, and it looked like the wife also liked the third brother.

Su Qingyue rolled her eyes at Xiao Yuchuan, “You just love to talk nonsense!”

He broke into a grin, revealing bright white teeth, “So it’s mine then?”

“Shameless.” Su Qingyue said straightforwardly, “I bought it for Qinghe. If you want one too, save for it yourself.”

Xiao Qinghe, upon hearing her clear words, felt a surge of warmth and emotion he had never experienced before.

Yuchuan made a sour face, “But I only have five copper coins. To reach five taels of silver, I’d have to save until when?”

“That’s your problem.” Su Qingyue said to Xiao Qinghe, “Fourth brother, come and sit in the wheelchair for a bit to see if you get used to it.”

She didn’t bother to ask if he liked it.

Because when the wheelchair was still on the ox cart before it was unloaded, she saw Qinghe’s moment of being moved when he saw it. There were clearly hidden tears of gratitude in his eyes.

That indicated that he not only liked it but was also so moved that he was almost in tears.

She would probably be very moved too if it were her. Because for the fourth brother, who was paralyzed in bed for over four years, being able to move around was not easy.

“Okay.” Xiao Qinghe’s voice was soft. He held the edge of the bed, wanting to move to the wheelchair.

Xiao Yishan hurriedly supported him a bit.

He sat on the wheelchair, his handsome pale face expressing a hint of bewilderment.

Su Qingyue picked up the large cloth on the floor that had been covering the wheelchair earlier and folded it and put it aside to get it out of the way, “Fourth Brother, you can move forward by turning the chair wheels with both hands.”

He gripped the wooden wheels on both sides of the chair and turned them forward. He was strong, so it didn’t take much effort, “It’s pretty good. But five taels of silver is a lot. I’ve heard there are wheelchairs that cost three taels…”

Qingyue knew he was concerned about the money. Smiling, she pointed to an iron axle under the armrest of the wheelchair,
