At this time, Lord Li, who had been standing by and watching the fight, coughed and signaled Wang Laosan to step back.
After receiving the instructions, Wang Laosan rolled aside in shame.
Lord Li's eyes flashed with an inquiring light as he said, "Madam Wei is very skilled, and I truly admire her. Since she is so capable, why not follow my orders and go find some more food?"
This way, your Wei family can avoid the trouble of being searched, and I, the official, will take charge. How about we write off this matter and not pursue it further?"
When Su Huaiyue heard this, he knew that Lord Li was giving him a way out.
Today, under the watchful eyes of the public, the officials must also take action.
Otherwise, if everyone follows the Wei family's example of cheating and hoarding, it will be difficult for officials like them to manage the country.
"Yes, sir, I promise you, give me some time, I will try my best to find food and strive to make sure everyone has a full meal next time."
Lord Li nodded with satisfaction. Since Su Huaiyue said this, he believed that she could do it with her ability.
Everyone in the Wei family breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the crisis was temporarily resolved.
With Su Huaiyue's guarantee, all the onlookers dispersed contentedly. As long as Su Huaiyue agreed to find food, they just had to wait quietly.
But Wang Laosan was filled with resentment. How could he just miss the opportunity to punish the Wei family?
So, he hurried to the side of Lord Li, knelt on one knee and said anxiously: "Sir, you must not believe that woman's one-sided words. She is just trying to delay time. This sinful woman has always been arrogant. You can't let her off easily."
Wang Laosan grabbed Lord Li's trouser legs anxiously, fearing that he would miss this opportunity.
Lord Li was annoyed by his noise. He looked at him coldly and asked, "Third Brother, Madam Wei can find food for everyone. Can you? If not, then shut up."
When he heard about finding food, Wang Laosan lowered his head guiltily.
He knew his own ability, so he stopped talking and just looked up at the Wei family viciously. His eyes seemed to be filled with poison, as if he wanted to kill them all.
The farce finally ended and the officials left.
Finally, the Wei family calmed down.
The tense feeling in Wei Sisao's heart finally relaxed, her body softened, and she collapsed to the ground.
"Ah, Fourth Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Wei Yunrou happened to be standing beside her and gave her a hand, otherwise Wei Sisao would have fallen headfirst to the ground.
Wei Yunrou, a little girl, could not possibly carry such a heavy person.
Both of them fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Wei Che hurriedly helped Wei Si's wife up.
Su Huaiyue went to check immediately, and her pulse showed that she was a little anxious.
It might be the tension just now that caused the temporary fainting.
Madam Wei asked anxiously, "Huaiyue, what happened to her? Why did she suddenly faint?"
Su Huaiyue breathed a sigh of relief after understanding the reason.
"Grandma, it's okay. My fourth sister-in-law was probably too nervous just now, which is why she fainted. Just take a rest and drink some water and she'll be fine."
As he spoke, Su Huaiyue fed Wei Sisao a sip of the spiritual spring water in his water bag.
After a while, Wei Si's wife slowly woke up.
She blinked a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, Grandma, I made you laugh. I was just too nervous just now, and suddenly..."
Seeing that she was fine, Madam Wei nodded hurriedly: "Good child, I'm glad you're okay. You've always been timid, mother knows."
Su Huaiyue was packing her things on the side when Madam Wei came forward, frowning slightly and looking worried. "Huaiyue, Grandmother knows that if you stop this errand to find food, then Lord Li will definitely have to see the food. It all depends on luck. If you can't do it, what will happen to our Wei family..."
There is a shortage of food in the vast desert, and now we are boasting...
"Don't worry, Grandma. I won't do anything I'm not sure of. Don't worry!"
Since she agreed, she must have been 100% sure that she could find food, so she was still very confident about this.
After thinking for a moment, Su Huaiyue took Li'er and Zhi'er away.
Wei Che, who was behind him, saw Su Huaiyue taking the two children away, and couldn't help but feel a little confused, then immediately followed.
Li'er blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Mom, where are we going to play?"
Zhier was also curious and listened with his ears perked up.
Su Huaiyue smiled mysteriously: "Mom will take you to do something big!"
The two children immediately opened their eyes wide. They wanted to do something big. Although they didn’t know what it meant to do something big, they knew that as long as they followed their mother, they would be right.
Su Huaiyue pulled the two children to a sandy area with few people. She stretched out her feet and rubbed them left and right, and finally found a relatively soft piece of sand.
Fortunately, Su Huaiyue brought a broken bowl, otherwise she would have to dig it out with her hands.
She held the bowl and dug hard. Sweat ran down her cheeks, but she seemed to feel nothing and continued to dig the big hole with all her strength.
The two children thought Su Huaiyue had found some secret treasure, and excitedly found two wooden sticks to help shovel the sand.
The big one and two small ones were busy and having a lot of fun.
Wei Che squatted behind a rock not far away until his legs were numb. All the suspicions in his mind could be made into a TV drama.
The pit got bigger and bigger, until it was half a person's height.
“It’s done!”
Su Huaiyue straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face full of joy.
Then she looked around privately and saw Wei Zhi.
She pulled Zhier over and asked mysteriously, "Zhier, do you feel like going to the toilet?"
"Ah?" Zhier asked hesitantly.
Su Huaiyue's eyes were shining, and she was smiling with anticipation.
Then Wei Zhi nodded slowly in order not to spoil Su Huaiyue's fun.
"Oh, dear, then you can go to the toilet in this pit. Mommy needs to take Li'er to do something else first."
Without waiting for Wei Zhi to speak, Su Huaiyue pulled Li'er to do other things.
Zhier was left standing there alone, looking disheveled in the wind.
What happened to my mother? Why did she suddenly make him do such a weird action...
Wei Zhi couldn't figure it out.
Wei Che, who was peeping from the side, saw Su Huaiyue leaving Zhier alone next to the big pit, and his face suddenly turned black.
I really don't know what this woman is doing, leaving such a small child here alone!
After Su Huaiyue left, he ran to Wei Zhi and asked, "Zhi'er, why did she leave you here alone?"
Wei Zhi shook his head. He couldn't understand it either: "Mom told me to use the toilet here."
Go to the toilet?! What does that mean?
Wei Che instantly thought of what had just happened and felt that Su Huaiyue was punishing Zhier for his behavior.
So he comforted Zhier.
"Zhi'er, you don't have to take that woman's words to heart, and you don't have to listen to what she says. My uncle will go and argue with her."
