Chapter 69: Doubt



The atmosphere was dull for a moment, and then Wei Che's voice came: "You worry too much, she is not that kind of person."

Although there was a sense of protection in his tone, there was also a hint of hesitation.

Su Huaiyue stood behind the rock and could hear the conversation between Wei Che and Wei Ersao clearly.

The second wife of Wei was still trying to sow discord, and her voice once again reached Su Huaiyue's ears, full of distrust and personal attacks.

"Wei Che, believe it or not, I've seen the things she gave Li'er and Zhi'er. We've never seen them before. What if they're medicine? Don't you think it's scary?"

When Wei Che heard this, he turned his head and looked at Wei Ersao with confusion in his eyes.

Isn’t the food given to Li’er and Zhi’er the same as theirs?

"When did you see it?"

Seeing that she had successfully attracted Wei Che's attention, Wei Ersao moved closer and said in a low voice, "You didn't observe carefully, but I was watching closely.

Just last time, she personally took some red liquid of unknown origin and gave it to the children to drink, saying it was sweet and delicious.

How could there be something sweet in such a desolate place? I'm afraid she might have hidden some harmful stuff!"

Wei Che was silent, with no emotion in his dark eyes. Although he was sitting on the sand, his upper body was straight and his aura was not to be underestimated.

Hearing what Wei Ersao said, she recalled what Su Huaiyue had done before, and became thoughtful.

"Think about it, if those things are some kind of medicine, and they let everyone down their guard first, and then use the two dolls to contain our Wei family, the consequences will be disastrous."

What Wei Ersao said coincided with what Wei Che was thinking. He nodded with a slight hesitation.

"I've always suspected that Su Huaiyue's sudden change of character is due to a change of heart. Now that you've reminded me, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Wei Che sighed slightly, his eyes filled with even more thought.

Wei Ersao's suspicion is not groundless. After all, it is impossible for a person to change so much.

Su Huaiyue stood behind the rock, listening to the anger in her head, and complained to herself.

It's bad enough that Wei Ersao is making a big deal out of nothing. She is really judging others by her own standards.

Wei Che's suspicion made her even more dissatisfied.

If Su Huaiyue wanted to harm someone, why would she go through so much trouble to prepare the situation?

What's more, she had the space in her hands, so she didn't bother to control this exiled family.

Wei Ersao was clearly jealous of her.

And this Wei Che!

The more Su Huaiyue thought about it, the angrier she became. She turned around and kicked the small stone at her feet hard, watching it roll to the sand in the distance.

These two people are seriously ill in the brain!

She decided not to waste time listening to these infuriating words and turned and left the corner.

The sky was filled with soft twilight, covering the desert with a light golden hue.

“Sister-in-law, come quickly!”

Su Huaiyue's mood calmed down a little, and she saw Wei Yunrou standing not far away and waving at her.

"Yun Rou, what's wrong?"

Wei Yunrou ran over and took Su Huaiyue's arm affectionately.

"Sister-in-law, it's getting late. Let's go prepare dinner. It's time."

As she spoke, Wei Yunrou glanced at the wound on Su Huaiyue's arm and paused. "Sister-in-law, just watch me do it. It would be good if you could talk to me."

It just so happened that she had nothing to do right now, so she might as well go and accompany Yun Rou. She nodded.

"Is there any food at home?" Su Huaiyue asked as they walked.

Wei Yunrou immediately smiled: "Yes, sister-in-law, the big python you brought back, Master Li is now calling for it. I didn't expect that he could actually eat these new things, thanks to sister-in-law."

Su Huaiyue had never eaten snake meat before, this was the first time.

That giant python almost took her life, now it's time to have a taste of something new.

Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou came to the big rock and saw Lord Li wiping his sweat while directing his officers and soldiers to deal with the giant python.

Many family members and soldiers who were accompanying them were gathered around, watching everyone cutting up the giant snake meat that they had never seen before, and were discussing it a lot.

"Madam Wei."

Lord Li saw the two of them, nodded, and smiled, "Thanks to you, we can all eat snake meat today."

Su Huaiyue nodded with a smile and responded vaguely: "No, Lord Li has worked hard, what I am doing is nothing."

No matter what she said, she was not humble at all. After all, she had overcome the fear deep in her heart.

Thinking about the giant python's terrifying mouth, I still feel scared.

"This biggest piece is for you. It's not easy for you."

Lord Li pointed to a large piece of snake meat placed on a wooden rack nearby. The portion was extremely generous.

"Thank you, Lord Li, you are so polite!"

Su Huaiyue developed some respect for the practical Mr. Li from the bottom of his heart.

She and Wei Yunrou carefully picked up the piece of snake meat and said goodbye to Lord Li.

On the way home, Wei Yunrou said excitedly: "Sister-in-law, I'll grill the snake meat when I get home. Do you think it's good to eat like this?"

Su Huaiyue nodded as she walked: "Okay, I'm also curious about how it tastes. This is my first time."

When we returned to the Wei family's resting place, it was already dark and wisps of smoke were rising from the tents.

When Wei Zhi and Wei Li saw them coming back, they immediately ran over to help.

"Mother, such a big piece of snake meat!"

Wei Zhi exclaimed.

Wei Li covered her nose, half disgusted and half curious: "Can it really be eaten? I heard it's a ferocious beast."

"Yes,"

Su Huaiyue chuckled, "The meat is just a little firm, just roast it a little longer."

She and Wei Yunrou found some dry branches and started a small fire. They cut the snake meat into several large pieces and strung them on the branches. Then they laid them out neatly aside, ready to roast.
