She hugged the three little ones and said softly, "I won't be hungry. I have money."
The three didn't believe it.
Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to take out the money she earned from selling the recipes, as well as the medical fees she earned from Master Xiang - well, the small vest for the medical fees will fall off in front of you three first.
The three of them counted the silver ingots carefully.
After they were sure that their mother had a lot of money and had no shortage of it, they nodded reluctantly with satisfaction.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the three people who looked worried and said jokingly, "Keep the money. I'll come back to you for more money when I run out of money."
The three of them thought about it and decided that it was feasible, so they temporarily took back the small amount of money.
However, Da Hu forgot about the ugly black card with a look of disgust.
The three of them returned to Su Ergou's room, chased his uncle out, and hid the small bag with great difficulty! ...
In the afternoon, snow started falling again.
When Wei Ting and Su Cheng came back from the fields, the three little ones were already asleep, and it was unclear whether they were taking a nap or a nap.
The two of them entered the house covered in snow.
As his body gradually recovered, Wei Ting's complexion also improved a lot, and he looked more and more dignified and handsome.
Su Cheng's appearance was actually quite good. If it weren't for her bad reputation, there would be countless people who would want to be her and Er Gouzi's stepmother.
"Dad, didn't I tell you not to take him with you? He broke his leg, so you should use less force."
It was the last time he went back to catch Wang Laizi that he fell. His knee was broken and his calf injury almost recurred.
Father Su's eyes flashed, and he touched his tall nose bridge: "My son-in-law wants to go! If you don't believe me, ask!"
Su Xiaoxiao turned to Wei Ting: "Wei Ting."
"Oh! I'm so hungry! Is there any food in the kitchen?" Old Man Su slipped away decisively.
Only Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting were left in the main room.
Somehow, the atmosphere suddenly became... strange.
Wei Ting's aura is directly proportional to his recovery, and his powerful presence is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
He stood with his back to the light, his angular eyebrows and eyes were slightly shrouded in darkness, and his pair of calm and sharp eyes were like a blade waiting to be unsheathed, full of cold and sharp edge.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao also looked at him: "What?"
He pointed behind Su Xiaoxiao with the new crutch made by Su Cheng: "You are blocking me from entering the house."
"oh."
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and went into his room.
Wei Ting: “…”
Wei Ting thought she was here to change his medicine, so he followed her into the house without saying anything.
As soon as he sat down, Su Xiaoxiao took out a token and handed it to him: "Is it yours?"
The moment he saw the token, Wei Ting's expression changed instantly: "Where did you find it?"
Su Xiaoxiao took the token back, placed it on her palm and patted it gently: "Tell me first, what is this?"
Wei Ting looked at her deeply, and his expression suddenly relaxed.
This was one of the most important keepsakes he had. He thought it had fallen into the hands of that group of people, but who would have thought it was in her hands.
"Did the three of them give it to you?"
He clearly remembered that the group of people stole his bag. If the token was still there, then there was only one possibility: the three brats hid it.
"No, I picked it up myself!"
"Oh!"
It was the kid who gave it to him! The kid took his token and didn't give it to him, but gave it to a girl he met halfway. That's too much! Wei Ting said calmly, "I picked it up myself. If you have the guts, claim it yourself."
Wei Ting curled his lips: "Oh, you mean the names on the list? Those are just a few words?"
Su Xiaoxiao's face darkened.
These days, she had learned a lot of words under the pretext of asking Wei Ting to read the list, but he actually said... just a few words? Who is he looking down on!
As if he had noticed her anger, Wei Ting smiled and glanced at the token in her hand with a raised eyebrow: "You recognize it."
She recognized... what the hell! If she knew him, would she come to ask him? !
Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and smiled, "Forget it if you don't want to tell me. At worst, I'll go ask Shen Chuan tomorrow morning!"
After that, she took the token and turned away! Wei Ting had heard of Shen Chuan from Su Ergou, the son of the dean of a small academy, a young boy.
Wei Ting said nonchalantly: "If you don't want to die, just go and ask."
Su Xiaoxiao paused and looked at him suspiciously: "Don't scare me."
Wei Ting smiled coldly: "If you dare to gamble with the lives of your entire family, I won't stop you."
Su Xiaoxiao's chubby fists clenched and creaked. "I'll figure it out one day! Until then, I'll keep this thing!"
"It's up to you." Wei Ting leaned against the head of the bed nonchalantly, moved his injured leg up, and began to rest with his eyes closed.
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to beat him up.
Forget it. No matter what, at least he has a handle in his hand. The more he acts as if he doesn't care, the more it proves that this thing is important to him.
After Su Xiaoxiao left, Wei Ting slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were cold.
He must find a chance to get the token back! ——Su Xiaoxiao went to the kitchen to eat a corn cob and started to cook dinner for her family.
Ever since Wei Ting said she had lost weight (a little bit), her confidence in losing weight has greatly increased. She has not touched refined carbohydrates for many days and has mostly eaten whole grains as her staple food.
She plans to steam a pot of sweet potato and brown rice tonight.
When she was halfway through cutting the sweet potato cubes, three little kids hurriedly ran in from the back door of the kitchen, and threw themselves into her arms one by one, looking frightened.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
Before the three of them could speak, a stern shout came from the next room: "Eat! You only know how to eat!"
“Ahh—”
It was Xiao Meizi's crying.
Mrs. Wu is beating the eldest wife's child again.
"Grandma! Stop hitting your sister!"
Mei Zi tried to stop the fight, but unfortunately not only did she fail to stop Da Wu, but she was beaten up by Da Wu instead.
"Eat maltose, Grandma Wu, and beat her!" Da Hu gestured.
The cause of the incident was that Xiao Meizi ate a piece of ox egg malt candy, and when Mrs. Wu found out, she beat her.
But this was just the surface that the children saw. The real reason was that Liu Ping came back from the town to celebrate the New Year and did not bring back much wages. Mrs. Wu was dissatisfied and took advantage of the situation to vent her anger on Xiao Meizi, who was only three years old.
At this moment the man in the family was out. Mrs. Wu was collecting clothes in the front yard. When she heard her two daughters crying, she quickly put down the work at hand and went to the kitchen.
This time, Xiao Wu did not swallow her anger as she did in the past, but argued with her mother-in-law.
"Mother! Little Meizi only ate half a piece of candy. Is it necessary for you to be so harsh?"
"Oh, your man is back, and someone is backing you up, so you dare to talk back to your mother-in-law, right? Do you know how expensive maltose is? How dare a loser to eat it!"
"My sister didn't steal the food! It was Niu Dan who threw it on the ground and didn't want it!"
Bang! "I told you not to talk back!"
Mrs. Wu slapped Mei Zi in the face.
