Lin Yuansheng slowly squatted down, and the child handed him a gray cloth strip. The child's hands were tender and had some dirt on them, indicating that he was mischievous. "Brother, brother, tie, tie my hair."

"You can't tie your hair now. When you're a little older, brother will help you tie it."

"Then, brother, brother must keep his promise and help Zhu'er tie her hair in the future."

Lin Yuansheng touched his hair and unexpectedly felt the urge to have a child of his own.

Lin Yuansheng despised Jiang Qingxue, there was no doubt about it, but unfortunately, he had already married her.

He wanted to live.

Lin Yuansheng clenched the hair tie and pondered.

Jiang Qingxue's work was not just carrying bricks, she also carried various things.

She glanced at Lin Yuansheng as she passed by with a sack on her shoulder. Seeing him sitting quietly in a chair watching the children play, she felt relieved and no longer paid special attention to him.

Jiang Qingxue was focused on her work, once she stopped paying attention to Lin Yuansheng, she couldn't even hear the exclamations of others. Carrying a sack of things, she walked straight past him.

It was only when she finished putting down the sack that she slowly walked back and saw several people gathered in the shed where Lin Yuansheng was. She furrowed her brows and walked over.

Lin Yuansheng, among the crowd, was initially a bit at a loss, but when he saw Jiang Qingxue coming towards him, he inexplicably felt calm, but it was only for a moment, and soon he became restless again.

If she looks at me like that, she's probably going to scold me.

Lin Yuansheng quickly stood up from the chair and instinctively hid his injured hand behind his back.

As she approached, her expression became clearer, with furrowed brows and an unhappy look, even appearing somewhat irritable.

But now, outside, does he also need to. . .

However, Jiang Qingxue didn't pay attention to that. Instead, she stared at his hand and spoke in a cold tone, "I saw it. Show it to me. Let me see how serious it is."

The woman who had asked Lin Yuansheng to take care of the child earlier awkwardly scratched her head and stepped forward, "Sorry, Jiang sister, it's all because of my mischievous child. Your husband fell while picking up a hairband for the child. I'm really sorry."

The child, who had clearly been reprimanded before, wiped away tears and apologized with a choked voice, "Yes, I'm sorry, brother. I didn't mean to. Brother, let me blow on it, blowing on it will make it feel better."

Lin Yuansheng lowered his head and saw the tear stains on the child's face. Unable to resist his soft-heartedness, even with Jiang Qingxue still watching him, he turned to the child first.

The people around who were watching the scene didn't pay much attention, and there were even whispers, all saying that it was just a fall, and which man would be so delicate, insisting on forcing someone to apologize and make amends?

Jiang Qingxue looked at them with an unfriendly gaze, and they immediately shut their mouths and awkwardly dispersed to mind their own business.

Only a few people involved in the incident remained.

Jiang Qingxue didn't intend to blame the child either. Seeing that the child was feeling guilty, and his little eyes kept stealing glances at her, she spoke up, "I don't blame you. It was his own carelessness. Sister doesn't need to take it to heart."

"You, stretch out your hand and let me see."

The last sentence was said to Lin Yuansheng, and the obvious displeasure in the tone was evident.

Lin Yuansheng thought that she found him troublesome, his thin lips tightly pursed, and only then did he stretch out his hand.

In fact, the injury was not serious, but the man's fair and tender skin made it look severe with blood dripping.

Jiang Qingxue frowned, about to say something, when another woman walked over, with a loud voice, shouting, "What are you two doing? Taking advantage of my absence to slack off?"

They turned their heads and saw that it was the person in charge.

Lin Yuansheng had never been taken out by Jiang Qingxue before, and this was the first time he had caused trouble. His narrow eyes trembled, and he instinctively hid behind Jiang Qingxue.

Jiang Qingxue glanced at him, thinking about the opposite etiquette between men and women in a matriarchal society, guessing that Lin Yuansheng wanted to avoid the other woman.

Even with his hand injured like this, he still knew how to avoid people.

Jiang Qingxue turned her head, somewhat speechless, and at the same time, she slightly moved to block him.

"Person in charge, this is my husband. He accidentally fell just now, and I was thinking of taking him to the medical clinic for a check-up."

The person in charge was a slightly chubby woman, her eyes disappeared when she smiled, but she was easy to talk to. Upon hearing Jiang Qingxue's words, she immediately waved her fan and replied, "The most important thing is for the man to get treated for his injury. Take him to see a doctor quickly, but don't leave any scars. I'll pay you today's wages in advance."

This person in charge was from the Sun family in the town.

Their young miss wanted to build a garden in the outskirts, so they had this job.

The person in charge slowly counted out twenty-five copper coins and handed them to Jiang Qingxue. "You left early today, so I'll deduct five coins from your pay. Any objections?"

Naturally, she had no objections.

Jiang Qingxue swiftly accepted the money, apologized to the person in charge, and then turned around and pulled Lin Yuansheng.

"Hey, Sister Jiang, wait a moment. It might require some silver coins for medical treatment. Take this money, it's all because of my mischievous child that my brother-in-law got hurt."

The woman's simple face showed a hint of apology.

It's not easy to judge this matter. Although he fell while trying to help someone pick up something, he wanted to pick it up himself and no one forced him. It can only be said that he didn't stand firm and was careless.

Jiang Qingxue felt a bit frustrated and thought Lin Yuansheng was too clumsy to even pick up something without falling, but she didn't ask for the woman's money.

"No need, sister. My husband's hand is hurting, so I'll take him to the clinic first."

Saying that, she pulled Lin Yuansheng and left.

Only a cold and determined aura could be seen in her eyes.

Lin Yuansheng's leg was slightly aching, but she made a displeased expression, so he didn't dare to say it hurt and could only stumble along.

Jiang Qingxue wasn't actually very angry now. She was only angry before because Lin Yuansheng ignored her and didn't know what's good for him. Now that she had calmed down, she felt it was nothing.

The two of them would eventually part ways, so why get angry with others because of it?

What if Lin Yuansheng holds a grudge against her and gives her a hard time after marrying the county magistrate in the future?

The clinic was not far from the construction site. Jiang Qingxue passed by the wood carving shop and subconsciously glanced at it.

An old master was sitting inside, earnestly carving a rudimentary Chang'e wood carving with a carving knife and drill.
