Wei Che looked a little unnatural, and a crack appeared on his tense face.
His voice was still cold: "I'll come back later, I have something to do first..."
The tone was a bit vague, and it seemed like he was making an excuse.
After saying that, he turned and left as if he was escaping.
When Wei Che left, his steps were a little hurried and his expression was a little flickering, as if he was hiding some unspeakable thoughts.
Seeing Wei Che's leaving back, Su Huaiyue felt even more unhappy, but then she felt that she shouldn't always guess what this man was thinking.
As for what he was thinking, it was really hard to figure out.
Thinking of this, she whispered, "Li'er, Zhi'er, come back. Let your uncle take care of things if he has something to do."
Although the two little guys felt a little disappointed when they heard this, they still ran back to Su Huaiyue obediently.
Wei Li noticed that his mother looked unwell and asked cautiously, "Mother, are you in pain? I just applied the medicine and the wound must be very painful."
Su Huaiyue smiled softly and reached out to touch Li'er's head: "It's okay, Li'er, don't worry, this little injury will heal quickly."
Wei Zhi also came over at this time and whispered like his sister, "Mom, let us blow on you, it will stop hurting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two children began to rush to blow air on the wound on Su Huaiyue's arm, with innocent and serious expressions on their faces.
Su Huaiyue felt touched, and the pain in the wound seemed to be relieved a little.
“Thank you, babies!”
The two little guys sat on both sides of Su Huaiyue, their eyes were big and bright, looking at him with anticipation. Su Huaiyue chuckled and an indescribable warmth rose in his heart.
Li'er's eyes were filled with curiosity: "Mother, how did you defeat that big snake?"
Zhier also widened his eyes waiting for Su Huaiyue's answer.
"Yes, yes, that big snake of mother's looks so scary."
Their serious look made Shou Huaiyue want to laugh.
He blinked mysteriously and whispered, "That big snake isn't as powerful as you think. Mother thought about it, found a huge branch in the woods, and then sneaked up on it..."
As she spoke, she gestured with her hands, making her feel as if she was really watching the scene.
The two children held their breath and listened nervously, as if imagining Su Huaiyue's heroic appearance in fighting the giant snake.
"At that time, I hid behind the big snake, seized the opportunity, and hit it hard with a stone, hitting it right in the vital spot."
Su Huayue clapped her hands, signaling the end: "Just like that, we captured the giant snake. Of course, wisdom is still the best weapon."
Wei Li and Wei Zhi listened with great interest, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Su Huaiyue.
Su Huaiyue smiled and, like magic, took out many colorful jellies from Xixiu and handed them to the children.
It was the first time they saw something like this and they didn't know it was edible.
Li'er and Zhi'er looked at the crystal clear objects in their hands with some confusion.
"Mother, this is..."
Su Huaiyue chuckled, picked one apart and put it into Li'er and Zhi'er's mouths.
The jelly was smooth and sweet in the mouth. It was their first time eating such a delicious snack, and their eyes widened instantly.
"It's delicious, mother! What kind of divine delicacy is this?"
Li'er chewed with satisfaction.
"This is what my mother picked up on her way to find the python. This is all you have. Don't tell anyone after you finish eating it."
The two little guys agreed in unison without any doubt about the truthfulness of what Su Huaiyue said.
He was enjoying the delicious jelly in his mouth with a satisfied look on his face.
"Mom is omnipotent. She can even find such delicious food." Zhier raised his head proudly.
Then he glanced at Su Huaiyue secretly and said cautiously: "Mother, can I leave a few for my uncle to eat?"
Hearing Wei Che, Su Huaiyue frowned slightly and naturally refused.
"No, this is reserved for you. Just eat it and don't give it to others."
Zhier keenly noticed that his mother seemed to be in a bad mood when she heard about her uncle.
He lowered his head, his little hands tightly grasping the corner of his clothes, and there was an indescribable childishness and determination in his voice.
"Mom, do you know? My uncle actually cares about you very much."
Zhier spoke in a low voice and carefully, as if he didn't want this topic to make Su Huaiyue unhappy.
He glanced at Li'er secretly and received an encouraging look from her.
"Yes, yes, mother, I heard my uncle talking about you a few days ago. She said you are smart and capable."
Li'er echoed, her voice brisk and energetic.
Su Huaiyue was stunned. Why did Wei Che, in her impression, only scold and resent her? In short, he just disliked her in every way?
At this moment, the children's words made Su Huaiyue slightly shaken, and he tried hard to recall those fragments.
She couldn't help but wonder if she had overlooked something when facing the cold-faced Wei Che.
Then, Su Huaiyue gently shook her head, a look of disbelief on her face. "You two are still young, don't make wild guesses. Wei Che is a difficult person to get along with. He questions and obstructs everything I do, and he takes my kindness for granted."
Zhier hurriedly shook his head: "No, mother, last time my uncle said that without you, the Wei family would not be as good as it is now.
Mother, we are a family. Zhier just hopes that you and uncle will stop being angry with each other."
Su Huaiyue embraced the two children, knew what they were thinking, and sighed slightly.
"Thank you, my two little darlings, for your reminder. Mother will listen."
Li'er and Zhi'er nodded heavily, very happy.
Su Huaiyue left the tent. There was still a slight pain in the wound, but it was not a big deal.
There were a few prisoners sitting not far away, and she vaguely heard them talking about what would happen after they left the desert.
That’s right, we’ll be leaving the desert soon, and it’s time to talk to Wei Che about our follow-up plans.
She took a deep breath, raised her feet, and walked towards where Wei Che was.
Just as she took a few steps closer, she heard the sharp and dissatisfied voice of Wei Ersao.
An ominous premonition rose in her heart. Su Huaiyue slowed down her pace and pricked up her ears to listen.
"Wei Che, look at what's happening now. Those officers and soldiers actually treat Su Huaiyue as the head of our Wei family, as if the whole family has to obey her orders."
There was a hint of jealousy in Wei Ersao's voice.
Wei Che's voice was low and steady: "Don't talk nonsense, she doesn't seem like that kind of person. It doesn't matter who goes to the meeting..."
"If you only notify her to discuss who to contact, without notifying anyone else, over time, this hoof will definitely stand on our heads, and I'm afraid that in the future, we will all be trampled underfoot."
Wei Ersao still refused to give in.
