After being forced to marry an ugly husband

Chapter 39 Qi Yinglan

When she was washing up in the evening, Qing Yan discovered that Qiu Henian's wrists were covered with two bloodstains from the hemp ropes, as well as his ankles, which looked very scary.

He was so distressed that he was about to burst into tears. He stood helpless in front of the man, his eyes red and speechless.

Qiu Henian sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hand towards him. Qingyan only looked at him and refused to go over.

Qiu Henian sighed softly, and said with a helpless smile: "It's okay, I've already taken the medicine, and it will grow back in two days."

Qingyan still didn't speak.

Qiu Henian's tone was gentle and soft, "Come here, I want to hug you."

Qingyan took a few steps forward, sat down on his lap obediently and softly, and buried her head in the crook of his neck.

Qiu Henian felt his husband's warm breath and soft touch on his cheek, hugged him and patted his back gently.

Qingyan whimpered in his throat and said, "I was too greedy and caused you to get hurt like this."

Qiu Henian lowered his head and kissed his hair, "We did it together. How can I blame you? Besides, I was very happy last night."

Qingyan said dullly, "I won't do it again. I don't want to see you get hurt."

Qiu Henian was silent for a while and said nothing.

Qingyan raised her head to look at him, and saw the other person looking at her with deep eyes, her Adam's apple slipped, and said: "Qingyan, you are making things difficult for me, I can't do it."

...

Starting from that night, Qiu Henian would go to the house next door to do some work before going to bed. Qingyan took a look at it a few times but didn't see what he was doing. After asking, the answer he got was that he would know when it was done.

The weather is getting warmer. Qingyan changed the thick quilt on the bed to a thin one, and replaced the pillow with a bamboo cooling pillow. The sheets, pillows and other items that were replaced were washed in the bright sunshine and prepared. Hang it to dry in the yard.

While he was busy working, someone outside the courtyard shouted: "Is Qingyan at home?"

Qingyan hurriedly agreed and went out to open the door.

Here came Liu Fa's wife and her husband Qi Yinglan, who had just married into the Liu family a few days ago.

Seeing him working, Liu Fa's wife said: "Hey, you are drying the sheets. My family just washed them yesterday. Come here, I will help you with them."

Qi Yinglan came up from behind her and said, "Sister-in-law, you have done a lot of work in the past two days. I'd better help Brother Qingyan do it."

This young man spoke with a soft voice, and seemed to be very good at talking and doing things. Qingyan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, please sit down, I will trouble Yinglan!"

Liu Fa's wife smiled and sat on the small stool to watch them work.

Qi Yinglan doesn't have an outstanding appearance. She has a slender figure and very nimble hands and feet. She seems to work a lot at home. Qingyan has a little trouble drying the sheets by herself. She and he both pull and shake the sheets, and the pleats shake. Once it is opened, it will be much easier to dry it.

This work was completed quickly, and the three of them went into the room to sit down. Qingyan brought out peanuts and walnuts and put them on the table.
