Chapter 60: Too soft-hearted; should have just been poisoned to end it all.



But his legs wouldn't obey him, and he was so anxious that sweat poured down his forehead.

Gu Xue quickly grabbed Su Xiangnan's hand and comforted him, "I'm fine, my stomach doesn't hurt, and I'm not hungry anymore, really."

She placed the bowl of cold food in front of Su Xiangnan, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him: "This is from my sister, Anan, eat it."

Su Xiangnan frowned and asked seriously, "Which sister gave it to you?"

He tried to calm himself down, but his voice still trembled slightly.

Gu Xue rested her chin on her hand, blinked her eyes, and said innocently, "It was given to me by Sister Lan who has two babies. Anan, don't ask anymore, just eat it."

Grandma's cooking is so delicious, better than my sister-in-law's and even better than what you buy outside.

Anan will definitely like it too!

Su Xiangnan hesitated for a moment, but seeing Gu Xue's expectant eyes, he finally picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of food, and put it in his mouth.

Although the food was cold, it still tasted good.

He ate with his head down, but a cold glint flashed in his dark pupils.

Even though all the chickens are dead, they still use pork ribs to lure Xue'er.

Hmph, they're really cunning, trying to gradually lower Xue'er's guard.

It seems I was too soft-hearted; I should have just poisoned him to end it all...

In the Meng family courtyard, everyone worked together to clean up the dining table and gave the two little ones a bath.

The little ones smelled sweet and soft after their bath, like two glutinous rice balls. They were so cute that you couldn't help but love them.

After admiring it for a while, Meng Shuyun finally sat down at the sewing machine and got to work.

Su Xiulan sat by the charcoal fire, drying her hair while playing with the child.

Su Xiuju helped tidy up the odds and ends, while Meng Kangshun skillfully cut the fabric.

As Meng Shuyun pedaled the sewing machine, she said to Meng Kangshun:

"Kangshun, come with me tomorrow to pay the rent, and then we'll go to another town's supply and marketing cooperative to discuss the hair accessory business."

If we can get more orders, we'll only need to supply goods to the supply and marketing cooperative in the future, instead of selling them ourselves in small quantities. It'll be more convenient.

This way, I can spend more time on production instead of constantly traveling.

Meng Kangshun stopped what he was doing and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Mother."

When Su Xiuju heard the word "rent," her heart skipped a beat, and she thought Meng Kangshun was about to reveal that she had paid the money herself.

She glanced at Meng Shuyun discreetly, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was paying attention to her.

Meng Shuyun seemed oblivious to Su Xiuju's subtle actions, her hands still busy as she continued, "We'll turn the electricity back on after Xiulan finishes her postpartum confinement. The two little ones are still too young; it's not appropriate to have all that banging and clanging around the house."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Meng Shuyun stopped what she was doing and seemed to be deep in thought. After a moment, she said with a solemn expression, "Once these things are settled, I want to go to your eldest sister's house. I wonder how she is doing now."
