Xiao Quezi knew how to control the old woman. Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Zhang Guihua immediately changed her mind.
No matter how valuable something is, it is not as important as your man’s life!

Afraid that he would not believe it, Zhang Guihua immediately got downstairs, took out a bunch of keys from her belt, opened a cabinet, took out the white flour given by Old Man Shen, and placed it on the cabinet.
