Lin Xi exclaimed in surprise.
From his angle, he could see right through the red stain on Ji Qingyu's clothes on her buttocks.
"ah?"
Ji Qingyu quickly reached out to cover her buttocks, making a solid contact with Su Qinghe's large hand.
"Put me down! I can walk by myself!"
He pushed Su Qinghe in embarrassment and annoyance.
This thing came out of nowhere, and he hadn't prepared any proper supplies. He just found a piece of cloth and made a makeshift version. He didn't expect it to be so unusable.
Unfortunately, Su Qinghe witnessed this embarrassing incident!
Ji Qingyu felt that he would never be able to face anyone again!
Not only was Ji Qingyu embarrassed, but the two men beside her were also very uncomfortable. After all, this was something that men kept private, and even the wife would feel embarrassed.
Ji Yuan quickly took off his outer robe and covered Ji Qingyu's buttocks. He looked up at Su Qinghe.
"My lady! Don't get your clothes dirty too. Let's put him down and help him back inside!"
“Yes!” Lin Xi nodded in agreement.
Seeing their awkward expressions, Su Qinghe didn't let go. She went upstairs and answered them with her actions.
"If I don't mind, how can you guys possibly complain!"
"It's all blood anyway, so there's no difference!"
She carried him up the stairs, Ji Qingyu pressing his head against her chest, the strong heartbeat echoing in his ears.
For some reason, he suddenly didn't want to get down.
Su Qinghe spoke in a very steady voice, as if she were not struggling at all.
Neither Lin Xi nor Ji Yuan spoke. Only after Su Qinghe's figure disappeared around the corner did the two men exchange a glance, both seeing emotion in each other's eyes.
Lin Xi spoke first.
"Brother Yuan, now that Brother Yu has gone back inside, and it's getting chilly, you should hurry back and put on some more clothes so you don't catch a cold!"
Ji Yuan shook his head and said softly.
"No rush, I'll go to the kitchen to boil some water first. Yu-ge'er will definitely need it later! Xiao Xi, go upstairs first! I'll be there in a bit!"
As he spoke, he turned to go downstairs, but Lin Xi pushed him directly to the top of the stairs on the second floor.
"Brother Yuan! You don't need to worry about this, I'll go. I can start a fire faster than you, I promise I'll be up in no time! You should go upstairs and change your clothes!"
Unlike the harmonious atmosphere between the two men downstairs, there was an eerie silence in Ji Qingyu's room.
Su Qinghe stood in front of the bed, holding the person in her arms. Seeing the bloodstains on the sheets, she hesitated for a moment, unsure whether she should put the person on the bed.
"Since we're going to wash it anyway, it doesn't matter if a few more get stuck on!"
A muffled murmur came from Ji Qingyu's arms.
"Okay!" Su Qinghe agreed and placed the person on it.
She wasn't worried about getting the sheets dirty; it wasn't her washing them anyway, so she could just throw them away!
She was just wondering if Ji Qingyu had a cleanliness obsession, even though it was his own blood.
"Do you want to change your clothes?" Su Qinghe asked.
"I'm not changing it for now, I need to make something first!" Ji Qingyu said, head down.
"Could you help me bring that box over here?"
He pointed to a half-sized wooden box at the foot of the bed.
"Can!"
Su Qinghe placed the items on the bedside table and watched him pick through them. After a while, he pulled out a large piece of cloth, a pair of scissors, and an embroidery needle.
"Can you make this yourself?"
Su Qinghe looked at the thing in his hand, her curiosity growing.
She knew what he was going to do, but she just didn't know how the ones men used now were different from the ones women used before.
To be honest, she's still very curious about men's...things!
Ji Qingyu noticed the intense gaze fixed on her from above, and dared not lift her head.
"I'm not very good at it... Could you please call my brother over for me?"
He buried his head in shame, his voice barely audible.
He fiddled with the piece of fabric he had just cut into shape, and didn't make any further moves for a long time.
Back home, he always left these kinds of things to his servants; he never had to worry about them himself.
"Wait!"
Su Qinghe said something and was about to leave when Ji Yuan pushed the door open and walked in.
"Master Wife!"
When Ji Yuan saw that Su Qinghe was also there, he was stunned for a moment and hid the things in his hands behind his back.
Although Su Qinghe didn't show much disgust just now, he still couldn't bring himself to openly display such a thing in front of a woman.
"What are you holding?" Su Qinghe raised an eyebrow as she watched his movements.
Is there anything she can't see?
Upon hearing Su Qinghe's question, Ji Yuan consciously brought the items to his front again. He looked at her, his face slightly flushed.
"It's some wood ash! We'll put it in that container later!"
His eyes fell on the strip of cloth in Ji Qingyu's hand.
When Ji Qingyu saw that he finally looked at her, she breathed a sigh of relief and waved the strip of cloth in her hand excitedly, as if she had seen a savior.
"Brother! Come quickly and help me! I was just about to go find you!"
Seeing the thing swaying in the air, Ji Yuan hurriedly and awkwardly went over to press his hand down.
"Ahem!" he coughed as a warning.
Ji Qingyu only realized what was happening after being glared at by him.
"……sorry!"
His face flushed red, and he stole a glance at Su Qinghe beside him, secretly rolling the strip of cloth in his hand into a ball.
Ji Yuan sighed, but seeing his pale face, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
He turned to look at Su Qinghe, his face showing some apology.
"My lady! Can Yu-ge'er rest for the day and go down to help tomorrow when he's feeling better?"
"If you're not feeling well, just rest more. The building doesn't need another helper like him!" Su Qinghe took a stool and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"I posted the job advertisements again early this morning, and I believe someone will come before noon. Then you won't have to go down there and do anything yourself!"
"Mm!" Ji Yuan nodded obediently.
The room fell silent again. The two men were busy with their work, and Su Qinghe showed no intention of leaving. She watched their movements intently, her eyes fixed on them.
"Why isn't she leaving yet! What's so interesting about this stuff!"
Ji Qingyu felt extremely uncomfortable under her gaze and had already secretly glanced at her several times.
"It's getting late, my lady, won't you go to the main hall to take a look?"
Ji Yuan also became restless and quickly found a topic to talk about.
“No need, Wang Lin can manage it well.” Su Qinghe said without looking up.
"The wife has indeed chosen a capable man!" Seeing that she didn't intend to leave, Ji Yuan could only offer a compliment.
The room fell silent again until they finished the first one.
Su Qinghe watched the entire production process before finally raising her head.
"Don't you have anything to explain to me?" she asked Ji Yuan softly.
Ji Yuan's hand trembled as he held the needle, and a small hole was pricked in his index finger.
Su Qinghe frowned, grabbed his index finger and sucked on it, her face showing reproach.
"Why are you being so careless? I was just asking casually, look how scared you are!"
"You really don't trust your wife at all?"
