It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child

"Belong to the government office? What will happen after it becomes the government office? Are you planning to sell it? Or give it to the court?" Su Man continued to ask.

"The money from the sales will go into the national treasury."

"Is that so?" Su Man thought for a moment, "Then what would this sell for?"

When Manager Fu heard this, he immediately realized what Su Man was thinking.

"Ma'am, do you want to buy that building?"

"I have this idea, but I don't know how to buy it or how much money it will cost." Su Man directly admitted her idea.

Shopkeeper Fu smiled happily and said,

"Madam, from what I can see, you can definitely afford it. For that building, one thousand taels is about right."

"One thousand taels?" Su Man frowned slightly. She hadn't had much income these days, but she didn't have much cash on hand. It seemed like she had to turn the things in the space into some silver.

Shopkeeper Fu thought she was worried about money, so he took out two silver bills and gave them to Su Man.

"Madam, this is all the money that You Ran Ju has earned during this period. It's enough for you to buy the building. And don't worry, we have plenty of money. The master has more money than he can spend."

Su Man took the banknotes and saw that they were two notes of five hundred taels each, and a small bag containing some change.

"You've earned this much in these days? Are you sure you calculated it correctly?"

"Of course not, Madam. You know the business of Youranju. We can't keep up with the work every day. It's normal to sell so much. I know your style of doing things, so I brought the account book with me. You can take a look."

After hearing this, Su Man didn't really look at the account book. She just felt that it was a little bit too much, not too little, so there was nothing wrong with it.

Shopkeeper Fu actually really wanted to give all the money he earned to Su Man, but he also knew that Su Man would definitely not accept it, and might even be angry. If he made Su Man angry at that time, it would not be worth it.

Wei Yan came out of Fu Xiu's room and walked straight over to Su Man when he saw her.

"I wonder what delicious food to cook today? I didn't even eat much for breakfast because I wanted to eat you. I'm just saving my stomach for waiting."

Su Man was speechless, but when she thought about asking Wei Yan to do something next, she could only give a fake smile. The fake smile made Wei Yan feel a little scary.

"If you have something to say, just say it directly. If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. You can scold me, but don't smile like that again. It's really scary to me."

Su Man's face darkened, and then she snorted coldly and said,

"Do you know what your name is?"

"what?"

"You're a slut! What's the difference between you and refusing to accept a toast and drinking a forfeit? You can't even accept a nice face, and you have to let people scold you, right?"

As soon as Su Man finished speaking, bursts of laughter rang out in the yard.

Wei Yan: “…”

"Ahem..." Shopkeeper Fu couldn't help laughing, but was afraid that laughing out loud would embarrass Wei Yan, so he could only hold it in and hurt himself internally, and in the end he could only cough to relieve the pain.

The two children also slightly curved their lips.

Wei Yan's face was full of helplessness, "We are friends now after all, is this how you treat your friends?"

"Yeah, if I didn't consider you a friend, I wouldn't even talk to you, let alone let you into my house and stand here and talk and laugh with you."

Wei Yan was actually convinced by Su Man's words.

"By the way, Lord Wei, I have something I want to tell you. Is it convenient for you?"

"Oh? You actually talk to me like this and ask if it's convenient for me? You really want me to be flattered!"

He also answered Su Man in a sarcastic tone, which made Su Man speechless and twitched her lips.

"So do you have time? If not, I'll go do other things."

"Yes, yes, yes. You've already talked to me like this. If I still say I don't have time, then what kind of person would I be?"

Su Man rolled her eyes. "Okay, I'll be frank. I want Mama Li's building. Name your price."

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Manager Fu.

Shopkeeper Fu said cheerfully, "Master Wei, we will listen to Madam in everything. Whatever Madam says is what we will do. Just answer her."

"Tsk..." Wei Yan said with a light sigh, "Everyone in your Fu family is really a worry to me. The old ones are like this, the young ones are like this, the men are like this, and the women are also a worry to me."

Manager Fu still maintained his cheerful look, but Su Man's face turned cold.

"That's enough. Stop talking so much useless nonsense. It's annoying to listen to."

She doesn't want to be a member of the Fu family, she is just herself!

Wei Yan shook his head helplessly. This temper is exactly the same as Fu Xiu's. No wonder Fu Xiu likes Su Man.

"Of course I can sell you the building, and the price is negotiable, but I want to ask, what are you going to use it for?"

"I don't need to tell you what I'm going to use it for, do I?"

"It's really not necessary, but I'm your friend after all. If you want to do some money-making business, can you take me with you?"

Su Man laughed directly, "Master Wei, I think you don't think highly of this small business, do you still need this little money?"

"I'm not short of money, but I'm short of fun. Following you will definitely allow me to encounter many interesting things."

Su Man really had no way of understanding this man's train of thought, but she could not agree to Wei Yan's request.

"If you are willing to sell it, then sell it. If you can't sell it, then don't sell it. I don't plan to bring anyone with me this time. There is more than one store in this town that can do business. If this one is not suitable, I can find another one."

Wei Yan choked. He didn't expect Su Man to refuse so directly without any hesitation.

"Okay, since you don't want to, I won't force you. I'll give you one thousand taels."

Sure enough, the price was exactly the same as what Manager Fu told Su Man.

In fact, Su Man could accept this price, because although it only had two floors, the yard at the back was very large and could be used not only for living but also as a warehouse.

But it had to be handed in anyway. He didn't know what Wei Yan's specific identity was. One thing was certain, that was Wei Yan had full control over the matter.

"Eight hundred taels." Su Man directly lowered the price.

Wei Yan was shocked, "Can the price be lowered?"

"Why not? You can bargain when you go to the market to buy vegetables. You asked for one thousand taels. If I don't bargain, won't I be taken advantage of?"

Wei Yan choked again.

"Is there any need to lower the price? One thousand taels is a very reasonable price."

"I know the price you offered is moderate, but I have no money and I am short of money, so I can only lower the price."

"You don't have money?" Wei Yan laughed angrily, "You Ran Ju's business is so good, even if I haven't seen the account book, I know you can definitely come up with this thousand taels. What's more, you don't know that Fu Xiu is rich enough to rival a country, this thousand taels is nothing to him."

Su Man looked innocent, "You also know that it's Fu Xiu's money, I don't have any money. And you know I have a restaurant to open, and all kinds of expenses will cost money, too. What's more, I have two children to raise, which also cost money.

Don't tell me that Fu Xiu is rich. It's his business if he has money. Anyway, I don't have money. Just tell me, will you sell it for eight hundred taels?"

"Sell it." Wei Yan agreed immediately. Anyway, he would go to Fu Xiu to ask for it later.

I just didn't expect Su Man to dislike Fu Xiu so much that she didn't even want to have anything to do with him. I don't know what Fu Xiu thought when he heard it, tsk tsk tsk...

Fu Xiu in the room did hear it, and his expression did not look good.

Su Man was so busy with work these past two days that she didn't even have time to spend with her children, let alone come to see him, which means they haven't seen each other for two whole days.

If someone wants to see you, he will come to see you even if he has to travel through mountains and rivers.

If someone deliberately doesn't want to see you, you don't have to see him or her even if you live under the same roof.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, including Shopkeeper Fu, didn't dare to say a word. Wei Yan could see that Su Man didn't want to have anything to do with their master, so how could they not see it?

But they didn't dare say it out loud. These things still needed to be done by their masters, and they, as subordinates, could only obey.

Su Man and Wei Yan reached a consensus to sell Li Mama's building to Su Man.

"This is eight hundred taels. I will go with you when you return in the afternoon, and we can finalize the contract by the way."

"So anxious?" Wei Yan was a little surprised.

Su Man nodded.

"Mom, are you leaving again?" Xiaobao asked.

Su Man looked at the two children and found that their faces were full of loss and discomfort.

She pursed her lips slightly. She had originally planned to stay at home with her two children for the next two days, but...

"Madam, don't worry about this matter. I will help you handle it." Shopkeeper Fu took the initiative to speak.

"The two little masters are young and clingy, and now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is inevitable that they will cling to you a little. After all, this is their first time to celebrate the Chinese New Year with you."

Manager Fu’s words made Su Man’s mind clear up.

Yes, these days she was thinking that the two children would definitely leave with Fu Xiu, and she was actually using work and busyness to numb herself. But she forgot that this was her first time to celebrate the New Year with the two children, and it might be the last time. She should leave a better impression on the two children instead of lacking their company.

"Okay, then you can help me watch over them. I won't take care of anything else these two days. I'll spend the New Year with my two children first!"

Su Man bent down and pinched the two children's cheeks.

"I'm sorry, I've neglected you these past two days. Can you please forgive me?"

The two children shook their heads.

Su Man was stunned, thinking that the two children didn't want to forgive her.

Dabao: "Mom, don't say sorry. It's us who are holding you back. Otherwise, you wouldn't have to work so hard."

Xiaobao: "Yes, mother, how can you ask us to forgive you? You did nothing wrong in the first place, and you don't need our forgiveness. It should be my brother and I who should say thank you for your hard work."

The thoughtfulness of the two children made everyone present sigh that they were so sensible.

Especially Su Man and old man Fan, who was staying in the kitchen and was actually secretly listening to the noise, both felt very uncomfortable.

What two good kids.

"Okay, okay, mother is right. From now on, mother will accompany you well. Let's prepare for the New Year together, okay?"

"it is good!"

Su Man's mood, which had been gloomy for the past two days, began to brighten up, and she took her two children into the kitchen to cook.

These noodles are very easy to make. Just blanch the noodles, make a marinade, then blanch some vegetables and fry an egg. It is simple and delicious.

When Su Man entered the kitchen and saw Old Man Fan still looking a little depressed, she felt a little helpless.

"Please don't be angry, okay? This is our first year together. Aren't you looking forward to it? Can't you be happy? Can't you leave behind good memories?"

Old Man Fan snorted.

"How can I not be happy? I'm just angry that you young people don't take your health seriously. This is not how you make money. How can your body bear it if it continues like this?"

Xiaobao: "Mom, my uncle is right, you have to take care of yourself!"

Dabao: "Mom, Daddy is actually very rich. Now there are so many uncles at home. Let them all pay for your food! Otherwise, how can there be so much food at home?"

Dabao was so clever that he raised his voice on purpose when he said these words. The people at the door heard them clearly and they all looked at each other in confusion.

"Yes, yes, yes! I promise to be careful next time, okay!" Su Man said helplessly.

But she was really happy to be cared about by several people.

It was the first time for Wei Yan and his friends to eat this kind of noodles. They were all surprised by the taste. They had never eaten anything like this before. It was sour, spicy and delicious, and came in a variety of flavors. If they could sell it outside, they would definitely make money.

Fu Xiu ate some pumpkin porridge and two egg whites today, which are easy to digest.

In the next two days, Fu Xiu can slowly add some other food, so Su Man added two egg whites for him.

Fu Xiu's brows relaxed as he saw that it was finally no longer just a single meal.

It’s not that he can’t eat a single food, but when he saw these extra foods, he felt that Su Man at least cared about him a little.

"How is he?" Fu Xiu asked while drinking pumpkin porridge.

I don’t know if it’s because today’s pumpkin porridge was cooked just right, but it tasted better and softer than ever before.

"Madam is outside feeding the young master."

Fu Xiu nodded slightly.

Fu Yi didn't say anything else, but sat aside slurping noodles.

There was still some sound of slurping noodles, and the unique taste of hot and sour noodles made everyone who smelled it drool, just like Fu Xiu at this moment.

"Eat out."

"Master?" Fu Yi looked at his master in confusion.

Fu Xiu said expressionlessly, "Let's go out and eat."

Fu Yi didn't understand, but still followed the order and went out.

There were a bunch of people slurping noodles in the yard, and the sound was inexplicably funny.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.
