Wei Qingfeng's hand that was trying to stop her froze, and when Wei Ci realized something was wrong and turned around to look, she found that her eight-foot-tall manly second brother was sobbing and wiping his tears, looking at her as if she were a pitiful little thing.
"Wow...it's all because of my second brother who is useless. He even made Ah Ci do all the work himself. If my eldest brother were here, he would definitely not let you do these rough jobs."
Wei Ci's hands froze as she was pulling out the pepper seedlings. Seeing that her second brother was about to cause trouble if she didn't say something, she quickly took out her handkerchief and handed it to him.

The captain's wife chuckled, walked in directly, slapped Wei Qingfeng on the back, and said in a teasing tone: "You are so old and still crybaby like before. Aren't you afraid of your sister laughing at you?"
